Not only is the ''fatted calf fgurative-

any who may care to witness. The

the square of fort-like buildings il
formed into a temporary plaza de tor

outlying ranches that . free show" is
about to transpirs. As result, q

A bull-fight costs no more than a bali.

sacrificed, and the pay of the profess

skilled musicians would receive for

Napoleon's Carriage.

The carriage in which the FIRST Ma
poleon- made his famous retreat from
Moscow, and in which he, as Emperor. set
out from Paris in the campaign which
closed at Waterloo, is now preserved in
London among the effects Of the Duke
OF Wellington. 1t is q two-seated con-
veyance, and the top, or cover, is lined
with thin sheet-iron. There is also a
lront curtain of iron. which can be low
cred at will. The wheels are large and
heavy, and the steps at either side sill
yer finished and of q curious design.
The rear seat was the one used by Ma
poleon. Under the cushion of the seat
he carried blankets and pillows. The
back Of the front seat opens, and at the
right hand forms a small cupboard. in
which were tin plates, knives, spoons,
water can and q small fluid lamp. On
tho left is long opening, extending
forward nearly to the dash board,
and into which the Emperor of the first
nation Of Europe was wont to extend
his feet and legs, in order that he might
lie At full length. The blankets, pill
lows, spoons. knives and lamps that
we're used by the Emperor are still pre-
served. Phiiadelph Press.

Men and Women in Cairo.

The people who surrounded our camp
Were of all classes. The weather. sort
came up at q smart trot on donkeys.
Tho beasts were relatively much finer
specimens of quadrupedal than their
1iders Were of human nature. But the
poorer varieties Of the ass tribe were,
though considerably less obstinate, lit
tle better treated than their bre.hern in
moro civilized countries. Of the fair
sex many danes with yelled counte-
nances arrived ON donkey back. Moth
ing of tho visages of these ladies could
be seen. save two great black eyes.
which remained uncovered. Stretch
ing from the bridge of the nose to the
roots of their hair in front was an ex-
traordinary metal contrivance, which
we supposed. rightly or wrongly. had
something to do with maintaining the
veil IN its proper position. The appear
ance of this article precisely coincided
with that of the little brazen tube which
covers the muzzle and protects the
''sight'' of rife when not in use.
From this resemblance the heroes Of
the late campaign called the strange
appendages sightprotec:ors," aname
they retained during our occupation of
the square. The humber classes Of
women. at this period, at least, were
conspicuous by their absence. But the
''lerds of creation" represented here
were Of all kinds. from putativc nabobs
down to miserably and horribly repul-
sive-looking beggars. A large number
of men of the lower orders were blind
of one eye. We were aware. before
noticing this circumstance. that oph-
thalmia was the scourge of this coun-
try from the occurrence of some unfor-
tunate cases in our ranks; but when we
got to be on more familiar terms with
the townspeople. we gathered that it
was customary with many young men
to destroy an eye In order to escape
the conscription. Perhaps there was
some truth in this; at any rate the
amount of partial and complete blind
ness was very remarkable.-Cairo Let
