Central American Go,ernments.

Primarily, there are but two coun-
tries-Brazil and Guiana-in South and
Central America which can be said to
have settled political institutions, and
there is but one-British Guiana
where the English language is spoken.
All the States of Central America, Co
lombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Bolivia,
Peru and Uruguay are in chronic
state of revolution, and the Argentine
Republic is but little better. In every
one of these countries, including Brazil,
society is in very unsettled state and
the laws cannot be said to afford any
protection against usurpation and vio-
lence. There is not a republic among
them which merits the name, for they
are not governments of law, but of
officials. In the Argentine Republic,
where several colonies are to be estab-
lished, the police commissary is VERT
able despot, who generally does just
what he pleases. 1t is common thing
for men to be thrown into prison for
months, and even years, without war
rant or trial and it is almost an unknown
occurrence for o poor man to appeal
against their exactions- and arbitrary
acts. In Brazil, the police delegates
are quite as despotic and irresistible

tried to trade with the willy savage he was
sure TO get cheated, but that IL he would
only let him engineer the trade all would be
well. The fellow consented and the big
hearted Westerner took the Indian outside
and gave him SIS. After a short time he re-
turned and said: You see that Indian L. n
scamp. II you had traded with him he would
have done you out of your eye-teeth. But
know him. And. besides. he owes me money.
Now. got that pony SO reasonable that
can let you have him for $50. The money
was gladly paid and the kind-hearted West
erner retired to mediate on his virtues.
And you stood by and saw that done?"
Indignantly asked the audience.

After slight pause. during which Biker
replaced his "chaw" with a fresh one. he
resumed; You never went rabbitshooting
out here. did you? No? Well, then you
ought to. 1t would make you laugh. l know.
1t does anyone at first. Willie-he's my
boy: he s at school in the East now-he used
to go with young Indian. You know the
Indians hunt on dog-trot; they go on hour

not so hard as you might think. But Willie
is rather fat and it comes hard on him.
You've noticed what a lot OF dogs there
are around the agency. haven't you? There
used TO be more. but some of them got pois-
oned. Well. when they go after rabbits they
take them all. 1t does make queer sight
that procession of from eight to a dozen
dogs. followed by small Indian in four or
five coats. with gum shoes over his buck
skin leggins. and "a stout stick TO kill game

much difficulty"
As Bilker concluded he rose, stretched
himself. yawned once or twice softly. and
began unbuckling his cartridge belt.
Goodnight to you he said; its time to

The audience turned TO go. The kerosene

ESPECIAL NEW YORK CORRESPONDENCE.
She was buttermilk- at gar
den party for sweet charity's sake. She
was an idealization of the rural original.
There was no tan on her face, nor q
fieck of barnyard dust on her toilet.
She sold buttermilk at ten cents glass
as fast as she could use ladle with
her gloved hands. A few soft words
and roguish glance went with each
glass without extra charge. On her
head was hat of shape that real
milkmaid might have worn, only in
this instance the leghorn material had
cost five or six dollars, and bunch of
fine white ostrich plumes added as much
more to the toilet. The kerchief
which was brought around her should

gested country simplicity, if the observ-
er was not expert enough to know that
the lace-edged article was worth fifty
dollars at a moderate valuation. The
gloves were of the daintiest silk, and
she was spelling them in doing that
one afternoons duty with buttermilk.
They were light violet in color and in
perfume. 1t is within of the season to
scent such gloves with the appropriate
.odor. The apron had been made for
the occasion, of the same material as
the kerchief, and, like the gloves, was
being ruined by spatters of buttermilk.
reckoned that the service she was
performing would cost her about fifteen
dollars in perishable material, and,
considering that fact, who shall say
that the beverage she dispensed was
dear at dime glass, notwithstanding
