CRY or MEXICO, Sept. 2s.---ltsis now
SIX days since there has been mail aud
passenger communication by rail With the
United states. The train that pulled out
from. here saturday night could get no
further than san Juan de Rio, aud the
train which should have reached here
last Tuesday, and was expected TO arrive
here Sunday, got as far as Sllao and had
10 stop on account of renewed washouts
at Chintepee. There IS, therefore, one
train at each of the washouts.
These facts viii cNplalnto merchants IL
the United States why Mexican mails
have been delayed lately. Ills, however,
hoped by hard work 20 get the road IN
condition TO bring train IN tomorrow
with ali delayed malls aud passengers. II
has been reported that the Vera Cruz
railway had suffered serious washouts,
but IL has been learned that only one cul,
vert washed away and the train was
stopped before the spot was reached III
1881 the Vera Cruz railway had great
trouble with washouts, but with great
labor the road-bed mas got IN good
condition. The Vera Cruz people say II
Is costly road-bed, hut IL cheapest Ia d
tropical country where rain falls so hcay
lily. The rains for the past fortnight have
been incessant aud an immense amount
Of water has fallen II Is not strange
that the road-bed OF the Mexican Central
should have had trouble. The manage
ment have worked theoretically TO repail
the track, but The rains fcllin such man
ner that made Il impossible TO do bette
than what has been done. II Is proposeG
to strengthen the weak points IN sub
stantial manner. There has been but yer,
little trouble on the northern division o
the road.

The Chances of Fewer Marriages.

Girls are no more angels than men
are apes, and there are other vices be-
sides impurity, such as envy, unohari.
tableness, malice, untruthfulness, and
ill-temper. Are all the vices on our
sideP Post-nuptial backslidings are
worse than ante-nuptial divagations,
and if the balance is to be struck after
marriage it is not easy to say on which
side the slide would be. There is one
lesson which we, all of us, in what
ever rank or society we may be, have
to learn, and the sooner we learn it
the better-the lesson of humility, OF
modesty, of economy. We are no
longer the lords Of creation; we haye
no longer a monopoly of capital %
production, rents and interests will
fall lower still, and unless We realize
the situation. come down from our
high horse, and moderate our views oi
style and expenditure, very seriou:
trouble will overtake society. We had
better give up sneering at those dirty
foreigners" and initiate little OF theil
frugality. But the example must hs
set BY those above; so long as thu
| leaders of the great world indulge II
display, those below will spend thei
last shilling in an insane attempt to b.
in the running. Diamonds, lace, cost
" fabrics, whether for dress or furni
tnre, long and lavish dinner parties
heavy snppers after balls, all thes'
things might BIS made unfashionabl
by a wave of Zenobia's wand. Unles
some change of this kind is made il
our habits. or unless some happy rev
olution occurs in our economic history
there will be fewer marriages than eve
in Vanity Fair.-Ihe National Rerte~
