Nevertheless, we must all regret that in

eers are frequently SO short sighted ny 70

reason for putting The city Of Rome where
il stood, and then having to bring water
to it on high archod aqueducts from dis

the unhealthy marshes miles away from
the city. Paris and Edinburgh aud Con
stantinople are well placed cities. New
York could have been placed elsewhere
than on this island Of gneiss, which Is
probably Il series Of rock islets with sand
hills and quick sands between. Brooklyn
has been growing prodigiously Of late, be
cause it was 80 much easier to form "a city
there than upon the site OF New York.
Newark has also grown with great rapid
ity, because IT has advantages On tho con-
tinental mainland not enjoyed by New
York.
W~estchester county, north Of New York
island, would have been the easiest Of all
places 10 put q great city, which would
then have been fronted upon Long Island
Sound and Oh the Hudson river, and also
on the main continent, while the Harlem
river in front Of it would long ago have
been made into u sort of Thames. Still,

When two dear creatures that nave not

one another on the trottoir Of Fifth avenue,
where the crowd is greatest and the pave

tiers in which the storner sex does not suffer
by contrast with the fairer. Anyhow, two

often do, would be sorely hustled -Pittsburs

In Naples Ali Souls day Is regarded as
n holiday, and the visit Of the families 10
the c%hurchyard for the purpose Of decor
ating the graves degenerates into a pleas
IRE party. Metal garlands are chiefly
used Tor the purpose, and. though they
are more durable, they hardly possess
the charm Of real leaves and flowers.
They may, however. be regarded as
symbolic Of the behavior, if not always Of
the feelings, Of those who offer them. On
the way 10 the cemetery a decent s0briety
il Observed. and the various families
usually remain separate; bat on the re-
turn general s%Ociability and mirth are the
rule. The roadside is lined with inns,
which are better filed on this than any
other day in the year, and from all Of
them the sound Of singing and dancing
may he hoard. Indeed, it IL by 10 means
uncommon for Il young Ncapolitan to say
to a friend: I'VE are going 10 visit our
mothers grave tomorrow, and on our
way back we shall stop at such or such
I'm inn;' which m ans. if You like to
come there YOU n dance with my sister.
To an Eu.lishman no celebration o. the
day seems a letter thing. Ii we forget
our dead we do not make their memory
the excuse for a J%ollIfication.
II is not, however, in this point alone
that a difference Of sentiment exists.
The whole way in which the N%eapohtans
treat the bodies of the dead fills US with
disgust. To exhume a corpse a year or
two after it has been buried TO have the
skeleton taken 10 pieces and the bones
carefully cleaned, would seem 20 Us a
wanton outrage; the wealthy Neapolitan
who neglects to have this done for his
kindred is regarded as heartless. To
carry about the prepared bones of n pet
child. and to place them in q sealed
casket on the drawing room mantelpiecc,
seems to us simply shocking; III southern
Italy it has been regarded IS a most
pathetic expression Of sorrow. But the
height of what appears to uJ grotesque
horror has been reached by . widowcr,
who has the embalnled corpse of bis wife
dressed anew once a year in fresh and
gorgeous apparel, and seizes the oPPortu-
nifty to present it with a new ring or
bracelet. -Saturdsy Review.

would have killed him and given battle;

the terrestrial globe at the end Of a bilbo-

Ntnmps tho People Never See.

A woman who has the craze for stamp
collecting called at the Bangor postoflice
recently and said she wanted to buy
some of the stamps which are Cancelled
when postage Is paid on regular publica-
tions." 1t isagainst the rule to sell these
stamps, and the woman's remark led to
hi investigation by an inspector. Ac-
cording TO a rule Of the department, mail
matter prepaid is receipted in a book,
which is sent t. Washington when filed.
Stamps OF a particular sort were placed
On the receipts and Cancelled. AS they
were never allowed to go from the Office
they were of course of great value to col
leotors. The inspector found that tue
book had been taken by All employe, who
believed il to be of no value. He sold
them and found eager customers for
them. Whatever he had on hand he
gave TO the Inspector who called on him.
