Elephants In Battle.

There is beautiful story of an old
elephant that once engaged in an
Indian battle. He was standard
bearer, and carried on his huge back
the royal ensign, the rallying point Of
the Poonan host. At the beginning OF
the fight he lost his master. The
mahout, or driver, had just given him
the word to halt, when he received a
fatal wound and fell to the ground.
where he lay under heap OF the slain.
The obedient elephant stood still while
the battle closed around HIM and the
standard he carried. He never stirred
foot, refusing to advance or retire as
the conflict became hotter and fiercer,
until the Mahrattas, seeing the stand
ard still flying steadily in its place,
refused to believe they were beat en-,
and rallied again and again around
their colors. And all this while, amid
the din of battle, the patient animal
stood straining it's ears to catch the
sound OF that voice it would never
hear again. At length the tide OF
conquest left the field deserted. The
Mahrattas swept on in pursuit of the
flying foe, but the elephant, like a rock,
stood there with the dead and dying
around and the ensign waving in it's
place. For three days and nights it
remained where it's master had given
the command to halt No bride or
threat could move it. Then they sent
to village, 100 miles away, and
brought the mahout's little son. The
noble hero seemed then to remember
how the driver had sometimes given
his authority to the little child, and
Immediately, with all his shattered
trappings clangings as he went, paced
quietly and slowly away.

The Fatigue t'Of q Wearing SOrt''
the Prince UndergOes.
From the Scottish American journal.

From the Scottish American journal.
His lot is not without trials. No
body in the kingdom is harder worked
or undergoes more fatigue of certain
wearing sort than the Prince and
Princes of Wales, and in less degree
the other members of the reigning
family. They are not only deprived
OF all privacy, always in the world
and before the world, always attended
by persons ofconsequence and exposed
to comment and criticism from fastld-
ious tastes and censorious tongues,
but they are dragged from one cere-
mony to another, from a gallery to a
hospital, from a levee to procession,
from dinner to a ball, till life must
often become a WEAKNESS. Yet they
must never fail to keep an engage
ment, and they are bound always to
display the especial "politeness of
kings"-punctually. They must be
civil when they are worn out, and
gracious when they are sleepy; they
must remember the names and faces
OF the thousandst to whom theirrecog-
milton is an honour; for all this is their
trade. They are trained to it from
childhood. They do remember people;
they are punctual and polite; all OF
which should be borne in mind for
them when people carp. and crit
icise. The Prince is personally popu-
lar among those who surround him
closest. His invitations are an hon
our as we'll as a command, and when
he visits a country house the list of
the guests who are to meet him is sub
mitted for his inspection.

A Wife's Value in Cows.

w. III. Christy in Salt Lake Tribune.
Iasked some of the Kafirs in the
diamond mines why they worked so
hard, when with their cattle, which is
the currency of the country, they
could live in ease. They told me they
wanted to make money to buy more
wives. That people purchase their
wives and payi or them in proportion
to the amount of flesh. An ordinary
wife brings ten to fifteen COWS, while a
more feshy one brings twenty, and
one that will tip the scales at $50
pounds readily brings twenty-five or
thirty cows. Zulus have from one to
four wives, in proportion to the
amount they have to pay.
Raising young girls for such trade is
considered profitable. The idea of
these Zulu women regarding this
practice of purchase is best illustrated
by an incident where an English lady
had one of them as servant until
she got married. The mother of the
girl called on the lady and boasted of
the number of cows paid for her
daughter, and thought it q great price,
and asked the English lady how many
her husband paid for her. She told
her that the English did not marry
that way-sell themselves in marriage.
The Zulu women could not compre-
bend it, and asked: care you like
a worthless dog, that your father
gives you away for nothing?"

Early Vegetables.


From the New YORK Market journal.
Bermuda is British colony, but
New York is its natural market and
from it we obtain our earliest green
vegetables, mainly potatoes, toma-
tees, onions, egg plant, etc. New
Early Rose potatoes planted last
fall, are now arriving from Bermuda
put up in barrels with whitewashed
heads, which is q popularity of Ber-
mudian vegetable shippers. They are
now worth at wholesale in New York
about So per barrel and will probably
be no lower during the season. A few
new tomatoes reached our markets by
the last steamer from Bermuda. and
the supply will rapidly increase by
each succeeding steamer. They now
bring at wholesale from 81 to 81 so
per box Of five or six crates. They
are Of course raised and ripened in the
open air. Onions will begin to arrive
in two or three weeks. There Is now
q semi-monthly steamer from Bermu-
da to New York, but little later
there will be weekly service or per-
haps three arrivals in two weeks dur
ing the height Of the crop season which
begins in April and May. The more
delicate and perishable vegetables,
like lettuce, celery, cucumbers, ETC.,
are not much brought from Bermuda,
as they are apt to wilt and become
stale on the passage.

Gen. George A. Sheridan is a very
eloquent campaign orator and plat
form lecturer. Not long ago he was I'M
Australia and delivered a lecture on
Abraham Lincoln. The audience at
Melbourne thought to put him to a
test at the close of his lecture by giving
him a vote of thanks and calling upon
him for an extempore acknowledge
ment of the same believing that if a man
could write and deliver a lecture he
ought to be able to speak well ex-
tempore. It took Gen. Sheridan
somewhat by surprise, but he arose
and, realizing the situation at once,
made the following neat, purely ex7
tempore reply, which, says the Buffalo
Commercial in reproducing is q gem
deserving publication:
Ladies and Gentlemen: lam stand
ing tonight upon, to me at least, the
threshold of new world. Strange
stars are shining down upon me;nature
seems reversed; here winter has given
place to spring, while in the land from
whence / wandered summer has just
kissed it's hand in parting, and now,
poised on Outstretched wings, smiles
kindly down to welcome autumn, as
with stately thread she moves to her
appointed place. Though stars are
strange, though nature is reversed,
though leagues OF sunny seas
between me and my native land
are rolling, yet in my heart tonight
there is no thought of strangeness
and no sense of loneliness. And why?
Simply because stand among a peo-
pie who trace their line back to the
loins of the same mighty race that
peopled the land from whence l came;
simply because bear my message to
them, be it good or i'll, in the common
tongue we first heard in the songs our
mothers sung above the cradles where
they rocked us. Then the entire
audience rose to their feet and cheered
time after time. They remained
standing till the speaker closed, when
they again applauded with great en-
thusiasm.] lhave spoken to you of
Abraham Lincoln just as l should
have spoken to my own people, be-
leiving you would recognize in him a
grand representative of the era in
which he lived, as well as a splendid
type of the Anglo-Saxon race, whose
all conquering footsteps are limited
simply because God has not made the
girdle of this earth greater.

English Women Lacking Taste
in Dressing.

English women are the worst-dress-
ed females on the GLOBE" says a late
London letter. Expensive laces, vel
vet gowns, flashing diamonds, ETC., in
plenty, but no gracefulness in wearing
them, no well-ftting garments, no
'chic'-or,to apply an American term,
no STYLE Why, I've been astonished
at the awkward motions, the dreary
gossip, the humdrum conversation,
carried on among society people here
in the drawing-room-old stagers-
some of them, who ought to know bet
ter. And then, English girls cannot
dance. They especially can not waltz.
It was stated to me on good authori-
ty, that the prince of Wales doesn't
know how to reverse, and that it,
therefore, was considered bad form
to waltz properly. But it's my belief
founded on individual observation
that even if the prince of Wales knew
how to waltz, the rest OF England would
not. Young Dudley Winston came home
quite disguised from that ball at Lady
Waterlow's, and registered a sacred
vow by all the hours in the Shahs
harem never to waltz with British
maiden again-if he could help it."

A Type Of the Artists Model.

A correspondent OF the philadelphia
Press thus portrays one type of the
artists model: She has been in the
business for five years, and has train
ed her eyes SO that they can express
undying devotion while she is calmly
thinking out the best kind of trimming
to put on her new winter sacque. She
represents "yearning;" just what she
is yearning for no one knows. Every
body that paints her tries to catch
this expression, and every one labels
it differently. That rara avis, an ar
fist with religious turn, will picture
her kneeling in virgin white, and call his
work Faith" another will have the
same eyes staring out across autumn
fields and will write Hopeless Love"
beneath the picture; third will have
her looking across a sailless sea, and
when you read the catalogue his pic
ture will bear the record, "He cometh
not, she said," and she of the yearn-
ing eyes goes on yearning at the rate
of Sits an hour, and learns the
trick from the artist of painting her
slippers blue or pink, to correspond
with her dress when she goes to the
French ball.

English as She Should Be Sung.
From the Musical Herald,

From the Musical Herald
Why not sing more songs in English,
and also sing them in better English?
1t is a shame that, with the great
wealth of English poetry, SO many
composers prefer to pour forth imita-
ton German Lieder, and SO many
young students prefer to make havoc
in the Teutonic or Italian language,
rather than sing sensibly in their own
mother tongue. When these students
do condescend to MARBLE in the vernac-
ular they diguise the language so that
it cannot be understood. They have
been told that English is a hard Ian
uage to sing in, and therefore they
mouth and distort words under the
mistaken impression that they are
rendering it easier. The fact is the
English requires little more study to
deliver it fluently than Italian; but,
with practice upon the closed novels
Ger" and zee" and steady work upon
the baneful "tle," sgle" and 'ing"
examinations the difficulties vanish
and pure pronunciation is attained.
And this is not nearly SO difficult as
for the German singer to attain agood
pronunciation of his gutturals or for
the French vocalist to overcome the
nasal tendencies of his language. Sing
ers, give your own language fair
chance.
