mud floor, wooden bench, brown and
polished with use, a deal table never
scrubbed, but brown with dirt and stains,
some blackened earthenware cooking
pots "a marmite and casserole) upon a
shelf, and bedstead, perhaps two, here
the wife's sole g The sheets are
fairly clean, the best coyerlet gay patch
work; the mattresses are well stuffed
with dried maize leaves, and the bed is
carefully made every day Sometimes
there hangs above it the efigy Of the
Virgin and Child, but not often nova
days, for in the hard struggle for existence
religion itself seems to have been pushed
aside; the peasant proprietor has little
time for church and prayer, and, though
his superstition may remain, his faith has
declined A gay carnation may hang
from broken pot on wall, but, once
stuck in it, it is there because it grows
like weed.
The peasant most frequently inhabits
he little village or town that hangs on
the mountain-side, or is perched upon
crag apparently inaccessible. Eza and
Roccabruna, on the Corniche, are well
known to all tourists and lovers of the
picturesque, and their duplicates, from
CASTELAR, to Fontana, are scattered far
inland among the folds Of the mountains
and over the frontier of Col de Tenda
into Italy, as in Briga, Tenda, etc.
Everywhere the same story Of the small
peasant proprietor massed in ancient ten
ements 50 closely that, seen from above,
it looks as though a skillfulIy thrown
sheet or two could cover all the roofs at
once. Here the interior condition IS
worse than in his hut: less space, more
crowding, and less air, and here he defies
every sanitary law. Five souls frequently
inhahit one room, five families one house
which originally was owned by one
alone, whose descendants have thus par
celed it out among themselves, with the
inevitable and deplorable result. Rooms
originally intended for sleeping rooms
have perforce become kitchens; and, as
chimney has thus to be provided, the
impoverished and parsimonious heirs
adopt the expedient Of knocking out a
stone in the wall and inserting a short
earthenware pipe, through which the
smoke quietly ascends, obscuring the
window directly above. The rights Of
"ancient Light are not protected by any
law in this country.

Chinese PAPER.

Eighteen hundred years ago the Chi
nese made paper from ibrous matter re-
duced to pulp. Now each province
makes its own peculiar variety. The
celebrated Chinese rice paper, that 50 re-
sembles woolen and silk fabrics, and Oh
which are painted quaint birds and flow
ers, is manufactured from compressed
pith, which is cut spirally by keen
knife into thin slices six inches wide and
twice as long. Funeral papers, Or paper
limitations Of earthly things which they
desire to bestow on departed friends, arc
burned over their graves. They use
paper window frames, paper sliding
doors, and paper visiting cards yard
long. 1t i related that when distin-
guished representative of the British
government visited Pekin several ser-
wants brought him huge ron, which,
when spread out on the floor, proved to
be the visiting carl Of the EN- peror.

The AIhatross at Sea.

Mr.. Froude, the historian, in de-
scription Of his voyage around the world,
says:-s'We always have bodyguard ot
abatrosses, Cape hens and sea hawlzs-the
same birds, SO the sailors said, following
the ship without resting all the way.
know not whether this be so or how the
fact has been ascertained. One large
gull is very like another, and the islands
in the middle of the passage are then
principal breeding places. Anyway,
from fifty to a hundred of them were
round us at sunrise, round us when night
fell and with us again in the morning.
They are very beautiful in the great ocean
solitude. One could have wished that
Coleridge had seen an albatross on the
wing before he wrote the Ancient Mari
ner, that the grace Of its motion might
have received a sufficient description.
He wheels in circles round and round,
and forever round the ship-now far be-
hind, now sweeping past in a long, rapid
curve, like perfect skater on an I'M
touched field Of ice. There Is no effort.
Watch as closely as you win you rarely
see a stroke Of the mighty pin
ion.

How a French PEASANT Lives.

When a peasant does live in cottage
on his land it is of the rudest description,
generally possessing but two rooms, often
only one. It is supplemented BY rude
piazza before the door, shaded in summer
time BY the luxuriant leaves Of thepump-
kin Here the family cook, dine and
generally sleep during the hot months.
Inside the adornment is nil. No muslin
cartain to the window, no oolOred print
upon the walls, no bright crockery, no
secured pewter Of brass, no clock. A

Milling is another interest that is im-
proving in the South. During last year
nearly $50 mills have been erected in the
Southern States, not including grist
mills. A Southern manufacturing ex-
change thus summarizes the years work:

mill each; Alabama, 2; South Carolina,

The suffering and loss of cattle in the
Southwest the past winter win tend to
revolutionize the cattle business, thinks
Kansas rancher, who further says that
public sentiment is against large herds,
and, as the country is rapidly settling
up, the herds must be made smaller and
receive better care.

RAILROADS MAY USE C3NHECT
LABOR

LABOR
BY act Of 1885 the superintendent
and Board Of Directors Of the Peni-
tentiaIy are authorized to make con-
tracts for the performance Of specific
work. They are also empowered by
act of 1854 and laws Of force pre-
vious to its passage, to hire out cou.
victs, as there seems to be q surplus
of convicts. we would suggest that
the railroads consider the advan-
tage to be gained by contracting for
sufficient force Of convicts to sup
plement the labor already in their
employ to put their roads in order.
The labor can be had we are told at
a reasonable price and they will thus
save money and besides not interfere
with the farm hands at this the most
important season Of the year to farm
ers. They are accessible TO the
Columbia and Greenyille Railroad
and might be utilized with profit as
the greatest damage to their road is
between Alston and Columbia.
