Men and Women in Cairo.

The people who surrounded our camp
were of all classes. The wealthier sort
came up at a smart trot on donkeys.
The beasts were relatively much finer
specimens of quadrupedal than their
riders were of human nature. But the
poorer varieties of the ass tribe were,
though considerably less obstinate, lit
tie better treated than their brethren in
more civilized countries. OF the fair
sex many danes with veiled counte-
nances arrived on donkey-back. Moth
ing of the 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 rifle when not in use.
From this resemblance the heroes Of
the late campaign called the strange
appendages ''sightprotectors," name
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
''lords of creation" represented here
were of all kinds. from putative 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

ply matter of news. The GLoBE-REPUB-
Lie received information that there was
great opposition among the colored voters
of this city to the tslked-of denomination
of J. B. Foraker for governor. There is
large colored population here; and it
seemed to be about the proper thing for q
newspaper to do to give their sentiment
on an interesting subject fair showing in
print. Accordingly a writer was sent out
among them for that purpose. He was
instructed to interview as large a number
of them as was practicable in two or three
days, and ask them their choice of candi-
dates for governor. He was charged to
give no views of his own and to put no
leading or biasing questions. His report
was that the opposition to Foraker was
spontaneous and appeared to be about
unanimous among the colored Republi-
cans of Springfield. This report the
GLoBE-REPUBLIC printed as q matter Of
news, embodying the replies and views Of
a few Of the leading persons interrogated.
On that state Of facts We suggested that
it would be risky to renominate Foraker,

The good woman recognized her son
instantly, and began to make signs for
him to leave the door.
Mammal again came the whisper,
this time little louder than before.
The mother shook her finger at the
boy warningly, and indulged in famil-

customed to awe her son. BUTT didn't

Wooing in MajOrca.

Chap. VIII of the book published IN
London by Charles Toll Bidwell. which
treats of courtship and marriage, is full
of charming little bits of feminine man
ners and customs. The law of compul
sorry civil marriage passed in 1870 seems
to be distasteful to the majority OF the
Majorcans, who Systematically evade
its provisions save where property
would be in peril If neglected. The
wooing in Majorca is, so far as the
humber classes are concerned, sui ge-
neris. There it is pcrpetually leap year,
and the rule is for Phyllis to court Da-
mon to the bitter or dulcet end. as the
case may be. An engagement in the
more aristocratic circles is a serious and
formal business, and, if parents and
guardians prove agreeable, the course
of true love is smooth enough; but in
those cases where they do not the bride
is ..robada," or robbed, which our au-
thor explains thus:
"A Young lady is said to be robbed
when the lover who aspires to her hand
and heart marries her without the con-
sent and countenance of her guardians,
and the circumstance actually occurs
often enough to make all parties in
terested in such matters quite accus.
toned to this mode of procedure. The
..blue blood" which came over with
the Conqucror (James l. of Aragon)
still carries its head high above the
common herd. These families are not
numerous, but some few still exist who
have remained in the island since the
King of Aragon annexed it. No action
for breach of promise ever takes place,
and it would probably not be easy to
bring a recalcitrant lover to book and
make him to pay for his "change of
mind" The Spaniard scorns q pecu-
mary recompense for injured honor or
damaged matrimonial aspirations. This
may be accepted as the logical conse-
quence of a perpetual leap-year; the
breach being on the lady's side, the
male creature is as mercilesly sacked"
as faithless denizen of the seraglio in
the days of Haroun al Raschid.
Occasionally male member of the
aristocracy is robbed" and in these
cases the culprit is some dainty damsel
of low degree. In the Island of Ivica
the popular emblem of love is gunpow-
der, and the most brilliant accomplish
ment young damsel can display is to
stand without flinching while her lover
fires at her legs, and which often as
sumo. after a lenthy courtship, the ap-
pearance of a Christmas plum-pudding.
In the other Islands gallantry displays
itself by the usual offerings of sweet
meats. In Ivica the tribute is gunpow-
der. Majorca, would appear to be the
paradise of servant-girls, for not only
are followers allowed, but stipulated
for, and Sundays and feast-days claimed
as a right for turn on the Alameda
with their lovers. A comic song upon
the miseries of '.servantgalism" in the
Majorcan dialect is funny, but we sus-
pect the prose translation fails to give
the epigrammatic force of the orig
inal.

never thought OF turning traitor to his
avowed principles. But, in pending
campaign in which the Republicans, st.
Johns old friends, were arrayed against
the Democrats, his lifelong enemies, in
a contest that it seemed, from the outset,
must be very closely and hotly contested,
the Kansas angel, who had frequently
shouted, and up to late date at that,
against a separate Prohibition political
organization, sold himself to the National
Prohibition organization, for the bare
honor ~ of q presidential nomination,
and the salary he was to have for canvass
ing the country in his own behalf THIS
was sale OF person and principles-for a
questionable honor and few thous
and dollars, for the acceptance
of the position was in the face of his de-
clared convictions, as the problem of
anti-liquor legislation was in no way in
volved in the canvass, as St. John, if
elected, would have had no power at all
to touch or affect in any way the liquor
traffic. The only thing St. John could do
and he knew this to be the iact-was to
promote the election of Grover Cleveland,
the lawyer of a whisky combination, and q,
very appropriately, the candidate OF the
Democratic party.
Now, when we take into consideration
in connection with this, the recently
made charges that he offered to turn a
double traitor by leaving the Prohibition
lists in the heat OF the conflict, and that,
on not receiving his price from the Re-
publicans, he accepted money for remain
ing in the field from the Democrats, we
find that they allege nothing worse, in the
! way of treachery and corruption, than has
already been known of him by all inteli-
gent and candid men. If St. John has
not received money from the Democrats
who were certainly smart enough to offer
good round sum, he is fool as well as
a knsve. While he was in the market as a
commercial quantity he might as well
have gone in for the whole sheep" This
is the man who has recently been re-em-
ployed, at s., 900 year, by the National
Prohibition Committee to continue
the canvass of the country, from now
until and through 1888, We suppose. Sure
| ly, this Saint has sold himself for an am.
pie pecuniary consideration But when
he makes his appearance on the platform
the people Of the country will be able, from
the facts that have been presented to them
to estimate him at his true worth-or
| worthlessness. CMN.

zette is non-sensitive. Personally, as we

the party's success to that of any man,
whether Cincinnati or Springfield man.

of Springfield; and the news is authentic

THE SALE OF A SAINT.

This country has not yet produced q
white man Of any prominence at all who
has been more numerously sold out
and by himself-than a man BY the name
of St. John, who lives in Kansas, when he
is at home, but, for good personal reasons,
he is now seldom there. This men has
lived in the State named for a number Of
years, has been a talkative and scheming
politician, and when the Prohibition tidal
wave rolled over the State he had managed
in some way, to be on top Of it-probably
astraddle Of a slab. Ie is generally un-
derstood to be q sort of reformed
man, but whether he ever was an actual
sot, we are not able to say. 1t is likely he
had been enough of an inebriste to slob-
Der over, profusely, at Partisan Prohibition
mass meetings, and to be glorifed-frst,
because he had been q bad man, and,
second, because he, at later day, plumed
himself on being a good one-by far bet
ter than the great multitude Of clean, de-
cent men who had never shown themselves
worse than brute beasts by drinking to ex-

left very far behind in the race for re-
nomination, but it must be understood
that the Republicans of the State were
quite as hostile to the liquor traffic as
ever. But as a result of ST. Johns weak
administration-or to say the least, of his
failure to conserve the results gained BY a
