Matrimonial Felicity In Aigiers.

While working OF the terrace one
afternoon (my faVorite place, being I'M
molested in the shadow of the high house
OF neighbor, completely surrounded and
enveloped in whites-yeiloS, gray, blue,
green and pink whites, delicious whites in
shadow. of those refined tones so difficult
to do Justice to On canvas, and with which
one must wrestle), was attracted to the
parapet OF the terrace TO see the cause OF
the crush and noise OF q crowd in our
little street, which was cul de sac. A
number of people, some angry, some roar
ing with laughter, were following an
Arab, who was carrying his wife home in
his arms, very much against her Will; she
was so energetic in her resistance, and he
so determined, that his turban and bur
moose, and her vail and long black hair,
were flying to the winds.
He was calm OF couutenance, and said
nothing, but walked along firmly; she did
all the gesticulating, struggling and pro-
testing, until they came to door with
large knocker, to which, seeing a chance
of escape, she ciung, and he could not,
with all his efforts, make her let go. The
women of the house to which the door
was the entrance were friends of hers,
and hearing the unusual mode of tapping
rushed quickly TO open; they took in the
situation at glance, and it now became
the husbands turn to let go his hold.
Her friends received the wife and shut
the door and locked it in the husbands
face They all then repaired to their ter
race opposite me, and after lengthy ex
plantations they had a good laugh, drank
coffee and threw the dregs into the street
in the direction Of the husband.-F. A.

High Price for a Book.

"The highest price ever paid for book, "
said an expert, was $50, 900. The Ger
man government gave that sum for vel
lum missal which was presented to Henry
VIII by Pope Leo x, accompanied by the
document OF making Henry defender of
the faith. Charles II gave it to the an
cestors of the Duke Of Hamilton. A few
years ago the duke put it into the hands
OF SoUtherly, Williamson & Hodge, of
London, with other books, for sale. The
German government sent a special en-
bassy to buy it, and they carried it back
in an iron safe especially constructed for
it. The highest offer ever made was for
Hebrew Bible in the Vatican, for which
the Jews OF Venice agreed to give its
weight in gold. 1t was vast roll which
two men could scarcely carry, and the
offer amounted to 500, 600, but it was re-
fused.-New York Evening Sun.
