From the National Review.
A remarkable illustration of the wide diffusion
of literary taste and refinement among the
peasantry may be witnessed in the fields of
Northern India, especially in the spring
season. At that time the harvest is ripening
and the poor cutivators sit in clusters of eight
or ten to watch their crops, and beguile the
time by chanting poems of their ancient classi-
cal authors. | possess a good collection of
these favorite village chants, all of which were
composed by Indian poets of eminence, some of
whom date back 300 years 1t is as unfair to
call these villagers ignorant as it would be to
say the same of the English plowmen who
could recite from Shakespeare and Milton.
The Indian citizen is no whit behind his rural
brother. The druggist may be seen any day with
hundreds of jars around him, containing every
kind of medicine, from the simplest to the most
hazardous. Not one of these is marked with
label or ticket, yet he never fails to place his
hand on the right jar the instant its contents are
needed. The washerman affords another in
stance of phenomenal powers of memory. lie
collects huge pile of clothes from many differ
ent houses and carries them on his donkey to the
| rivers bank; he there washes them, and on re-
turning at night with the vast pile he never fails
to deliver each separate article to its nghtful
owner. These are mere instances of the reten-
tive power of the Indian mind; their value lies
in the fact that they are phenomena of daily re-
currence, which are obtruding themselves on the
observation of every resident in every part of
India.
Banjit Singh, the late ruler of the Punjab. was
man who could neither read nor write, but he
knew all that was going on in kingdom about
as large as France. He was an able financieI,
and he knew at all times accurately the con
tents of all his treasures; tremendous feat in
itself when we remember the constant tluctua-
tions caused by the varying receipts and pay
ments of great country. He knew the capac-
ties of his large and varied provinces, the ma
ture of all the tenures, the relative power of the
neighborng States, the strength and weakness
of the English, and was in all respects a first
class administrator.

The devotees of tennis and other athletic
sports will have a splendid opportunity this
week and next for witnessing some of the finest
exhibitions of skill ever held in Washington.
On Saturday the Athletic Union will hold its
regular meeting on Analostan Island, and on
Monday the tennis tournament for the cham
pionshp of the South will be held on the
grounds of the Bachelors Club Seventeenth
and P streets.
This gathering will bring together some of
the best players in the North men who have
gained more than local regulations in this
fascinating and popular pastime. Mr. Fred
Mansfield is the present champion of the South,
and he will be called upon to defend his title.
The leading players of this city have been as
siduously at the nets for two weeks past.
Among the local men who will enter the lists
are McCawley, Woodward Metcalf, Davidson,
Borden. Sheibley, Chambers, Kennon and
Walter Peters, H. Warren, Smith, Byrnes, But
terworth, and Chiffon.
From the North the following players have
entered: Kellogg, Nichols Prosser, G. j. Post,
Garmandia, r. V. Beach, Valentine G.. Hall,
Farwell, and Grant, an array which our boys
must stand against and play most superb tennis
to vauquish.
However, our local men have never been in
better trim They are playing in splendid
form, and are fast reducing the possibility of
having all the prizes go to Northern men. In
fact, with but two exceptions, our men are
about on par with the Northern contingent
of players who will come here next week. En-
tries may be made to T. P. Borden, 1725 Q
street.

as we have established the reputation of being
''the best jacket house in Washington" ours is
the place to buy. You'll see, too, that we not
only have the largest stock, but that we show
more new and pleasing ideas. Many of our
jackets, in fact, received their finishing touches
by modistes of renown. Indeed, there isn't a
desirable garment style, or fabric but what we
have. Here are few of the leading styles:
Jackets "a la militaire,' vest jackets with
shawl collars, jackets with sailor collars,
REFERS with notched collars. French ideas
