Lakes Churned Into suds.

From the POrtianQ OreSOn1dn.l
 l had heard much of the famous me dical lake, sixteen miles west of here, and so drove out to see it among the clouds of dust, gusts of wind and broiIing sun alternately. The trip out and back was pleasant, however, 8 constant change of scenery and succession of surprises.
 We found there were three lakes instead of one, all the same water, said to contain 'life's elixir" cure for all human ailments. No doubt there are valuable properties in the water, as attested by the analysis and the numerous testimony of those relieved by its use.
 We were prepared for bath, but time and inclination both forbid; time, because of the inclination first to eat; inclination from the presence of certain dead reptiles in the water to be seen-a thing, as the attendant said, ttnever before known"
 I said reptiles; these were at the bottom of the lake. which seemed half lizard. half fish, with the fins of 8 fish, the arms of a lizard, the body of neither, with the fins of the tail horizontal, instead of perpend1c- ular as with fish, a sort of a mongrel, as like salamander. In fact, these must have had peculiar tenacity of life to have lived in these waters at all, charged with salts as like lye, out of which near by they were making soap. The tiny waves of the lake had lashed the water into foam, precisely in appear ance as like heavy soap suds, the frothy suds piling up in some places foot deep or more,

Society in Mexico.

GCity of Mexico Letter to the Boston Herald.l
 The habits of good society here quite the same, with little more dash of aban- don, as anywhere in the world.
 Tho writer in the Bivouac speaks of the replacement ot the lace veil by the "Ameri- can hat" Nobody here wears American hats-that is the ladies. They wear import ed Paris hats entirely. The sevillana, or modern small mantilla-a most delightfully."- graceful headdress which ought to be the fashion in the States in summer, so univer- sally becoming is it to all women-is not at all displaced by the French hat. The sevil- lana is entirely permissible in the forenoon hours, and no lady wears a bonnet to church The church costume is black silk or woolen dress and sevillana, and if you want to see some beautiful Spanish types among the la dies go to the cathedral or to the fashionable Santa Brigida or profesa churches of 8 mornlng-where, among the hundreds Of kneeling worshippers, you will see faces that an American painter would give much to transfer to canvas. The Mexican ladies go to church daily in the morning hours. for here worship is not restricted to one day in the week, and the Mexican church is not 8 combination of lecture room, reception halls and church kitchen. It is place in which to worship God and not to make display of toilets and to cook oyster stews.
 The liberty accorded the ladies, young and old, nowadays is much more extended than in olden times. Then young ladies appear ing on the street were invariably accompa- nied, if not by parent, by an old woman who served as duenna and kept sharp eye on the girls lest they should catch the glan- ces of the young caballeros. It was then the rule for the girls to walk with their mouths hidden by their mantillas, which they kept in place by one hand. This fash ion of going with Ia boca tapada, or mouth covered, still obtains among the more modest young women of the lower classes, who car ry their rebozos in such manner as to look like Moorish women. In fact it is Moorish custom, coming down from the. times when the Arabs ruled in Spain. It is considered very well-bred and modest for women of the lower class not to show their mouths to the men, but, as I said, it is not universal cus- tom even among lower-elass people.
 An old friend, who has lived here nearly forty years. says that in his time, about 1S49, there were only two shops in all the city where one could buy ladies' French goods-silks, ribbons, bonnets, etc. There plate glass fronts filled with foreign goods. Now you may walk along the principal streets and see in the great windows as ele- gant goods as in Boston or New York. Some of the stocks of silks and ladies' goods car ried are very large. There are two cfockery stores-they are called fcristalerias"-wher splendid stocks are to be seen, but the goods are displayed mainly in upstairs apartments.

Robert Smalls, the negro who was counted out in the Seventh congressional district of South Carolina, has made the following ex- planation of the performances: The registra
 tion law necessarily made the vote appear light, but it was not the light vote that made a return of majority for Elliott. The result was obtained by deliberately closing large Republican polls. One was closed in Beau fort county (Bluffton); one in Berkeley county CBiggins Church); one in Richland county (Gadsden), and out of Ii in George town county. The ballot boxes were stuffed at many of the polls. In Beaufort county l can trace over 150 votes of this character. After all that could be done by them the re- turns still showed that I had majority of the votes as returned by the managers, and it must be remembered that every manager was Democrat and with the commissioners appointed at the instance and upon the rec ommendation of the various Democratic

The inhabitants of prisons in the United States number 57, 1881, of whom 52, 739 are at work and the remainder idle. By sexes conyicts are 1888 males and 3,901 females. The number of convicts working under the contract system is IA, ,939, or trihe over 26 per cent. The contract system has more than any other class excepting those em- ployed on what is called public account, and 15 per cent. are engaged in prison duties. The value of the product of manufactured goods produced in prisons and of work done by convicts bears small proportion to the total product of the country.

Several of the manufacturers of knit goods in Cohoes have refused to obey the orders of their own association, and have opened their mills when they had agreed to close them, and have forfeited $5,0O0 each as 8 penalty. The explanation of their course is that each of them thought he could make more than 5000 by resuming business. Such com binations will perhaps not prove much more effective than combinations of laborers.

The Parent OF insomnia.

The parent of insomnia o.
wakefulness is in nine cases out of
ten a dys9eptic stomach. Good
digestion gives sound sleep; indi-
Cestion interferes with it. The
hrain and the stomach sympathize.
One of the prominent symptoms
of a weak state Of gastric organs
Is disturbance of the great nerve
entrepot, the brain. Invigorate
the stomach, and you restore
equilibrium to the great centre.
A most reliable medicine for the
purpose is Hos letters Stomach
Bitters, which is far preferable
to mineral sedatives and powerful
narcotics, which, though they may
for q time exert a soPoroiic intiu-
ence upon the brain, soon cease to
act, and invariably injure the tone
of the stomach. The Bitters, on
the contrary, restore activity to
the operations of that all import
ant organ, and their benefcient
influence is reflected in sound
sleep and a tranquil state of the
nervous system. 4 wholesome
impetus is likewise given to the
action of the liver and bowels by
its use.
