Tl!c feast cntcrprising editor commonly knows enough, if he wishes a graphic re- port of scnie social event, " to send a woman. She will penetrate closed walls through a gls2ller cranny than any r2on, see lacr9 Gf5cr rhe gets there, and bring out hcc iooty in better condition. It does rot follow that she likes this aspect of her work; but people naturally come to take a pride in whatever they do well, even if it's beginnings were distaste- ful. Women who correspond with two or three different journf,z will sometimes lament the taste of their editor for gossip pure and simple, and bemoan the ruth lessness with which he strikes out all their little collateral efforts after artistic or literary expression. Thero is some thing appalling in taking half dozen Sunday papers and laying side by side their columns of minute dcsc1iption.-T. W. Higginson in Harper's Bazar.

Portraits in the Newspapors.

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett has de. cided views upon the appearance of the portraits of authors and prominent per. sens in newspapers or magazines. To a Correspondent who recently solicited a copy of portrait of herself for publica- tion in magazine the authoress wrote: ''There is nothing more painful to con- template than picture of one's self in a book or newspaper. If one is a beauty one's reputation IS instantly destroyed, and if one cannot afford to have any percentage taken of ones good looks the consequences are that one's secret hopes are blasted and one's most timid and modest confidence in one's self forever a ruin.

How tho Seal s1eens.

As they rest in the water, they seem to sleep as sound and as comfortable bedded on the waves or rolled by the swell as they do on the land.
 They lie on their backs, fold the fore fiippers down across the chest and turn the hind ones up and over, so that the tips rest on their necks and chins, thus exposing only the nose and the heels of the hind fippers above water, nothing else being seen.
 In this position, unless it is very rough, the seal sleeps as serenely as did the sub ject of that memorable song who was rocked in inc cradle of the deep.'' Youth Companion.

The seamen could be seen darling

from the angry flames, while our
batteries were still pouring their
death dealing missiles into the de-
voted ship. In the meantime the
Hartford and Albatross had passed
the batteries, though badly crippled
yet they were between US and
Vicksburg. The Monoogahela and
the other gunboats dropped down
out of range of our batteries badly

sippi was trying to land her On the
west bank, but our batteries kept
up their fire, and as the grand ship
struggled on with her cargo of hu-
man souls on board, our artillery
men made the night ring with their
yells. The blaze from the burning
ship made everything bright as day
which gave cur men better OPP

There is no protection against NOR

was often remarked that night that
they would find man in the bottom

After this Smelling had continued
for while, Forragut steamed up
the river with his feet, consisting
of the men of war Hartford, the
flag ship, and the Mississippi, and
the gunboats Albatross, Manonga-
hela and others. When they came
in range of our batteries they
opened on them, and the very earth
trembled with the shock. Broad

ships and was CALAMITY answered

the father of waters was lighted up
by the blazing flashes from the wa

could see the missiles in their
