Tt is a strange commentary on the
maxim; truth lies heavy and is a
burden TO carry" that the generation
of Northern men now living, who, in
1861, read RusselIs letters to the
Ttimes still regard him with intense
dislike, because he told the truth. and,
moreover, did not share the enthusiasm
aud purpose of the Northern people to
preserve the Union.

The enlisted men of these visiting
regiments will soon become familiar
with the bottom facts of war and when
they are, will act as other men act
under the circumstances.
But behind sentiment there remains
the AngIo-Saxon pluck, the obedience
to discipline, and some of the best
fighting Will be done by the very men
who are thoroughly tired of their con-
tract to fight against Spain but will
keep it to the last.

After the excitement was over, and
thes defeat at Bull Run, war became a
serious business.

twenty years afterwards, oppressed
with the feeling of wrong done to
him.

There were instances when regi-
ments did make a short extension of
their time of service, in other parts
of the country But it soon became
apparent that the army could be main
tanned only by forcing men into it by
CONSUMPTION. There were, of course,
many patriotic men who enlisted for
the war But large numbers lost their
staying power, when they could no
longer read Patriotism and Picnic"

OLD SLAVE MARKET OF HAVANA.

In the October Century there is an
article on Life and Society in Old
Cuba, made up OF extracts from the
diary of Jonathan S. Jenkins, an
American miniature painter, who
lived in Havana during the middle OF
Tie century. Mr.. Jenkins says: A
mile and half out from Havana is a
curious and painful sight-the slave
barracoons. where the newly arrived
barbarians are confined. Here were
congregated not less than 1000 ne
groes, ready for sale. Some were en-
tirely naked, others were nearly so.
Their heads were cloSe-shaved, and
their bodies SO emaciated by the hor-
rors of the middle passage" that they
resembled beasts more than men.
Certainly they did not appear to be
human beings as they gazed about
wildly, with anxious countenances, Us
ii bewildered.
| have often been amused at the
preliminary instruction they are put
through after their arrival at the bar
racoons. They are seated cross-leg-
ged on the ground in a row or circle,
and the negro teacher passes grayely
before them all, giving the lesson. He
moves his hands quickly to and from
his mouth. as though jutting some
thing in it, saying "Yammy! Yam
MY" all of the negroes initiating and
repeating after him. This meant to
eat. Tido-tino means something good.
choppy- choppy to work, yarry-yarry
to get sick. The teacher then goes
around with cup of native rum,
and gives each sip in token of ap-
proval. This uncouth vocabulary,
when understood, is enough to enable
them to labor on the estates. Before
buying, purchaser examines them to
ascertain their condition of health.
If this appears satisfactory, he gives
the negro hard slap in the face, and
if he displays no resentment, but
looks up and smiles, he is bought.
When these newly-imported Africans
are first taken, they are made to work
but very little for several months, I'M
til, by observing the other negroes,
they are gradually trained to labor;
for If they are discouraged by driving
them at first, they are apt to commit
suicide in the belief that they will
thus return to Africa.

olulu. A notable housekeeper, she
kept her large house filed with
boarders, but she was meddlesome
gossip, whose biting tongue caused
unhappiness to many. To expect her
to accept Lydia as welcome daugh-
ter-in-law was out of the question; in
fact, there was little expectation of
much happiness in Lydias marriage
for those who new the facts, for not
only was there the antagonism of the
mother-in-law, but John Dominis him
self had been badly brought up. He
was inclined even then to be dis
sipated, and he had associated with
the natives until he had imbibed some
or their worst traits. BY natives
in this sense is meant the common,
uneducated people whose influence
and whose low morality made them
unfit companions for young persons
of either sex.
After Lydia's marriage she went to
reside with Mrs. Dominis, and the
usual result of trying to mix two
totally distinct individualities OBJ
tanned.
AS a girl the characteristics at
tributed to Lydia by her political
enemies "'ere not prominent; on the
contrary, would seem that she was
Of tlmiu, modest, retiring dispo-
sition. D1gnitied, yes, for all the
Hawaiians possess dignity in great
degree, but ambitious, scheming, OBJ
.."ate, cruel, certainly no trace OF
such traits of character were ever seen,
and it is difficult for the intimate
friends OF her youth to realize or be-
lieye all the unpleasant things said Of
her politically and personally"

THE SUM.

A little dreaming by the way,
A little toiling day by day,
A little pain, little strife,
A little joy-and that is life.
\ short lived, tleeting summers morn
When happiness seems newly born,
When one days sky is blue above,
And one bird sings-and that is
love.
A little wearying of the years,
The tribute OF few hot tears,
Two folded hands, the fainting
breath,
And peace at last-and that is
death.
Just dreaming, loving, dying SO
The actors in the drama go;
A fitting picture on wall,
Love, death, the themes! But is 1t
all?

Manila, Oct. 22.-The insurgents are

forcing five per cent. tonnage upon
steamers and twenty per cent. upon
freights. American and British firms
are compelled to pay these charges,

against the arrangement which is all
the more unjust because goods enter
