This is the second drouth of the

Irish potatoes will be as great dis

little while longer, il it does not
rain, the pastures will be bare as we'll

pillow, and if the winter comes early
the farmer will not have time to make
up the good time he is now losing

on one side and fastening on the other.
In it were childish playthings, rude speci-
mems Of knitting, with places showing
where stitches had been dropped; tiny
spindles, implements for weaving, and
braids of irregular thickness, evidently
kept for the sake of contrast with others
better done. There were needles of bone
and of bronze, comb, a little bronze
knife, and fan, similar to that of the
mother, but smaller. The body was
wrapped precisely Like the woman's; her
hair was braided and laid around the fore
head, encircling which was also g cincture
OF white cloth, ornamented with little
silver spangles. A thin, narrow bracelet
OF silver still hung on her arm, and be-
tween her feet was the dried body of a
parrot, which had doubtless been her pet.
There was nothing of especial interest
surrounding the boy, except his sling,
which was bound around his forehead.
The baby mummy had been embedded
in alpaca wool, then wrapped in fine cot
ton cloth and placed in a queerly braided
basket of rushes, with loops at each end
and handles, as if for carrying it. A rat
tie was found beside the little body-a
seashell, with pebbles inside, the oritice
closed with pitch-like substance.
There were number of household
utensils in the vault, among them half a
dozen eartheu jars, pans and pots of vari-
GUS sizes. Some Of them were still en-
crusted with the SCOT of the fires over
which they had been used, and each con-
tanned something-corn, peanuts or Lima
beans.
Having spent a long day at mummy
hunting, we rode back to africa, across
the desert in the gathering twilight, some
what awed by what we had seen and by
thoughts naturally induced of the muta-
biiity, OF all things earthly; but feeling
ourselves immeasurably richer, not only
by reason OF the two mummies before
mentioned, but with a treasure-trove
of petritied eyeballs. spindles, combs,
needles, water jars and carved wooden
face whether mask, or idol, I do not
know, to add to my already heterogene-
GUS collection" at home

ing his vote, DIR. Henry NJ. Harman, Pro-

recent meeting of the National
Woman's Council and of the Woman
Suffrage Convention in Washington
made several converts to the opposition.
A number of ministers went to the coun-
ell as observers, and when they heard the
opening sermon that had no Christ in it,
as the C1aio,, SigndI says concerning it in
its last number; and when they heard the
world spoken OF as an exploded myth,
story; and especially when they heard
Mrs. Stanton's essay attacking the Scrip

plauded, they concluded that the ten
dency of the whole movement was
against the Scriptures and the interests of
women. One of them wrote us that what
he had heard there had done what our ar
guments had failed to do, convinced him
that the safe side for the church was to
vote in the negative.

yarn-spinner.
"Where was it?"
'Of Point Aux Barques, about fif-
teen years ago. Very strange case,
that. Probably the only one of tho
kind ever heard of.
"Give us the particulars"
"Well, we were jogging along down
when a thunderstorm overlook US, and
the very first flash of lightning struck
the deck amidships and bored a hole
as big as my leg right down through
the bottom of the vessel"
"Ap1 she foundered, of course?"
"No, sir. The water began rush
ing in, and she would have foundered,
but there came second flash, and a
bolt struck my fore-to'-gallant mast.
1t was cut off near the top, entered the
hole and plugged it up as tight as a
drum. When we got down to dry
dock we simply sawed off either end
and left the plug in the planks."

Neglected flower that in the ocean blooms.
Poor exile from the fragrant groves of

What sorrow rises in thy salt perfumes,
To what sad thoughts thy humble charm
gives birth!
Tossed by the tempest and the fluctuant tide.
The vulgar plaything OF the Shiny eel
Crushed bv the vessels keel or cast aside.
What bitterness thy injured sense mus,

Thy lovely sisters blush on field and lawn,
The lily, pink and rose are kin to thee;
Yet thou art destined from grim night TIL

To hide thy envy in the moaning seal
Alas! none know why thou vert cruelty
torn
From leafy woodlands and fair orchards
b!est-
Nor why thou shouldst not have been purely

A tuberose, to grace some gentle breast
Unless the Eternal, in His august might,
A secret usage for thy beauty found,
And made thee to fulfill some sacred rite
Upon the ghastly foreheads of the

DOGS AS HORSES.
,he Country Where They Are the
Beasts of Burden.

I have met NJ. Nantct, the Belgian
author, who follows the usage of his
country in utilizing the dog as a
draught animal He las a little
phaeton drawn by dogs in which he
drives about when Mt home, and in
which he has come from Brussels 10
Paris. NJ. Nantet thinks that Bel
gium, with her cherries sky and sod
den soil, is able to hold her own, and
be among the most prosperous nations
of Europe, because the dog is not only
the friend and comrade, but the
carrier of the poor man. The coster-
monger and his wife in Paris or Lon
don are broken down prematurely from
fatigue, and the stabling and fodder
for donkey is a heavy tax on their
profits, but their Belgian brethren can
house their dogs with themselves. The
dogs, after being embarrassed, dine
with their masters, and in winter sleep
before the kitchen fire.
The strength of good draught dog
"a marvellous. He does not spOieroads
like a horse, and when tired he asks
to lie down, favor always granted; !;
and, on being rested, goes on again
cheerfully.
The pair which drew NJ. Nantet is of
..verage size and strength, and bad a
long line of ancestors, who did good
work in their time as carriers. When
at an inn their master used to unharness
them and take them with him into the
! coffee room. where they lay down at
his feet. He drove all the way, unless
when there was a steep hill to climb.
At place called Louvroil the Mayor
heard he had come into the town, and
informed him that his equipage came
within the reach of the Grammont Law
for the protection of animals. VERY
we'll answered the Belgian, who was
preparing to start, and he ordered the
dogs to get into the pheton and sit on
