LIFE IN ITALY.
Some Peculiar Customs Prevailing Anon
Peasants and Country People,

Peasants and Country People.
An English lady, Hon. Margaret Col
lier, has written book, .'Our Home
by the Adriatic," in which she gives
some very curious accounts of peasant
life in Italy Cleanliness is not one of
the virtues of Italian peasants. Miss
Collier found that to ask for bath is
to create great alarm regarding the
state of ones health. One old man
who worked on a farm being asked if
he had ever been washed, replied, after
some reflection, that he believed some
one had washed him when he was a
small child. In the rich houses they
have great boards of linen, which en-
ables them to hold only one washing a
year. The dirty linen is stored away
in cupboards until the time comes
round for the annual wash. Then is
seen procession of carts. filing down
to the nearest stream. The poor Italian
babies have hard time OF it. Their
legs arc still bandaged with the fasc a,
like the limbs of mummies. Education
is not excessively indulged in. A young
lady who had received her education in
a convent asked Miss Collier il it was
really necessary to cross the ocean to
get to England, and she did not know
what an island is. To animals the low
er Italians are exceedingly cruel, vet
otherwise they take better care of them
than OF their own families, and when a
doctor Is consulted it is almost ALWAYS
regarding sick animal. Tha Italian
country gentleman does not hesitate to
beat the female members of his family.
Marriages are arranged after the French
method, Ayoung lady who came to
bs congratulated by Miss Collier ON her
approaching marriage, was asked the
name OF her chosen husband. "Oh! l |
don't know" she answered; papa has |
not yet told me that"-M y Post

CHARLESTON, Nov. 2.-The only interest in
the election in this State is ceiitered in the
Independent nominations for the Legislature
In berkeley County and the contest between
Elliott, Dem, and Small. Rep, for Congress
Indications yet as to the result of the local
fight IN Is rkeley County, but all reports from
gains over 1884, when Smalls was elected by
3,50l majority. There is u strong probability
OF Elliott's election, owing to his strength as
a candidate, the unpopularity of Smalls and
the apathy of the colored voter.
