Born with all the advantages Of for
tune, Mr.. Cardwell was carefully edu-
Gated. His preparatory course was
taken in Georgia, after which he
studied three years in Pennsylvania,
and subsequently in the University of
Virginia, where he was graduated.
Mr.. Cardwell has been great travel
Ter, spending much time in foreign
countries both before and subsequent to
the war. Many of his observations
abroad have been published A; and to his
pen is largely attributable the check Of
the strong tendency evidenced by south
ern people after the war to remove
into Brazil.
As a resident Of Texas during many
years Mr.. Cardwell has done much &c
improve the country by planting. His
plantation il Wharton county is one o
the best in the Lone-Star State.
Since 1871 he has been a journalist
In that year. at the request of the De
mocratic Executive Committee, he as
sumed editorial charge Of the States
man, Austin, Tex. AS editor and pro
pIietor for nearly fifteen years, he ha
welded great influence. His literar!
ability is Of high order, and he excel
as a speaker on political questions.
Mr.. Csrdwell, who is known in Texa
as " Colonel - Cardwell, is about forty
eight years old. He is over six feet i
height, and possesses a stout and hand
some figure.

Some Foreign Celebrities.

King Oscar, of Sweden, has joined

Lady John Manners is one of the
greatest advocates Of sewing in Eng
land, and is dong everything in her
power to have girls Of every condition
in life learn to make their own

At the wedding Of the eldest son OF
Lord Colyille to Miss Streatfield the six
youthful bridesmaids wore white, With
sashes, braces, cuffs, and cellars Of ruby
surah. They also wore wide whits
hats, with ruby pompons in front, red
stockings and shoes, and carried bou-
quets Of red roses.

DR.. Regnard by means of an inge-
NOUS apparatus has been studying the
conditions of life under great pressure
such as that which exists in profound
depths in the ocean. Last year he was
able to determine that the unequal COM
possibility Of the liquids and solids Of
an organism placed in the apparatus
caused the organism after long pressure
to be so soaked with water as to lose
its functions. With an improvement
lately effected in the apparatus
he can show on the screen all the
intermediate changes which take place
in an organism from the time it begins
to be acted upon by liquids under pres
sure until the time it is removed from
the artificial sea depth. Recently he
threw on the screen representation Of
the phenomena exhibited under pres
sure by the CyiopS-crustaceans scarce
ly millimetre in length, which at GER
tain seasons of the year are to be
found in abundance in brooks
Under pressure at 1000 metres
Cabout 200 atmospheres) such an ami
nal becomes restless at 1000 metres
it falls to the bottom, and at about
1000 metres it remains inert and be-
numbed. When the normal pressure
is reestablished the animal resumes mo-
ton, unless the pressure has sufficed to
soak the tissues, apparently indicating
that the loss Of function is caused by
compression Of the nervous system.
La Nature has an illustrated article on
this interesting subject.

or they may bear in addition to 1t one
or two birds. Birds are more IN de-
mapd than ever. Some hats have bands
ON the crowns with birds fastened here
and there all around. The bands for
dressy hats are usually in light colors
TO contrast with the dark shades of the
plush or velvet with which the frames
are covered. A bias band Of straw
colored plated velvet is very handsome
over dark, green, brown, or ma
hogany-colored hat. Astrakhan goods,
light beige, and etamine are all
used for these bands. White and black
birds are employed together. The
effect at half-mourniDg is attenuated by
the use Of bows or fancy pins. Black
velvet hats are dotted with jet and
trimmed with light jet leaves. Black
lace and beaver hats are also the style.
In felt, light shades only are suitable
for wear, as dark colors, and particu-
larly black, never make dressy bon
nets. Small capotes are in velvet,
plush, and fancy goods to match the
costumes. They are also covered with
fine Astrakhan, or with "boucle de
sole - in cream or beige-color. One
of these light beige capotes have faille
strings in the same shade. Under the
brim is double ruching Of pink gauze.
