The correspondent of the English papers must write with a smile w hen thev characterize Arabi and his cabinet as ‘“barbarous,” “Asiatics,” “lawless men,” and with other kindred epithets hold him up to the hatred of the world. Arabi possesses the precise degree of education that tin ordinary British officer rejoices in. He knows one language —the language of his country. He has a thorough practical knowledge of military affairs, and he has the power of appealing to the hearts of Ids countrymen with never-failing response. Shortly before the departure of tin l Europeans from Cairo. an American lady was invited to visit the harem of Arabi. She described the room in which the interview was held as a long bare room, with a divan at the cud. The only ornament was a small imperial photograph of Arabi set up in a imperb jeweled frame. The onlv la<ly who received the visitors was the venerulde mother of the Egyptian general. She spoke nothing but Arabic. She was dressed in the blue dress of the peasants, the material, however, being of abetter quality than those generally worn. She was disfigured by the tattooing of the forehead common among the lower classes. She received the visitors with great courtesy. She first pointed to the photograph with great pride, saying it was her most valued possession. Then drawing herself up with pardonable pride, she exclaimed : “Tell these English ladies that, although I am nothing but a poor peasant woman, if it had not l>een for me Egypt would never liave had Arabi Bey.” Whatever may be the defects of Arabi ' in education those defects do not extend to his advisers or associates. All of them talk French, all of them dress well, all of them arc accustomed to as good society as can l>e found in New York. Several of them have traveled extensively in Europe. Annie Surratt. Os Annie Surratt a Baltimore correspondent of the (’lnciinMti Commerilrfl says: “Annie Surratt, the poor girl who suffered so terribly as to make her old while yet young in years, lives near her brother John. She is the wife of Prof. Tonry, who is now the leiuling chemist of Baltimore. After her mother had been hanged, and her own mental factulties had been shattered by the agonies she imd undergone, the innocent girl was ostracized and persecuted to an extent that is a disgrace to our so-called Christian civilization. Years after, when Mr. Tonry —then a government clerk—dared to marrv her. lie was dismissed from office for the offense. For a time they w ere very pooT, but being turned out of the government grind proved to be the making of him after all. They are now prosperous enough in a worldly point of view, but the once blithe and beautiful Annie is a wreck, both mentally and physically, with hair as white as the driven snow, though but little more than 30 years of age. She neverrecovered from the shock of that awful day. the lust of her mother’s life, and is subject to tits of extreme nervousness, bordering upon delirium.” The Fair Sex. Alias Dll»l> Fi.E-ri-HKit, the gifted authoress of “Kismet,” is one of the characters in the American quarter at Home, and enjoys an unenviable position, being liked and pitied at the same time. Since her unfortunate affair with I,ord Wentworth, who acted so shamefully, she has grown much older, and the loss of her luxuriant hair changes her appearance greatly. Mas. Browne, mother of the late “Arterans Ward,” is a fine-looking old lady of some 70 years and possesses charming conversational powers. She resides in a pretty cottage, in Waterford, Me., where she enjoys the calls of her numerous friends, to whom she exhibits a collection of autographs of hundreds of persons from all the States, and also many foreign lands, w ho have at some time been her guests. Clara S. Foltz, “the learned lady attorney” of San Francisco, was recently at the United States Circuit Court at Oregon. According to a Western contemporary, when Judge Deady “espied the distinguished ladyseated in the room, he immediately rose, and, taking her by the hand, escorted her to a seat Imside him on the bench, and after the adjournment of court he ■ introduced her to every lawver present.” Lrr.r A’eling, the youth fulpianist is one of the musical prodigies of the age. She was born in Pottsville, September 19, 1868, and from her earliest , youth evinced great love for music, and took her first lesson on the piano at the i age of 5. In 1878 she made her first appearance as a publie performer and was overwhelmed with praises. Her repertoire includes the music of Bach. ; Mozart. Mendelssohn, Thalber, Taubert, Scarlotti and other well-known composers, all of which she plays without notes. Mrs. Paran Stevens, one of the best-known of American women, occupies a spacious brown-stone front on Fifth avenue, between Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth streets New York— ; a house so crowded with rare paintings and statuary, and objects of art of all kinds, as to denote not only vast wealth but a highly cultured taste. Mrs. Stevens eonverses, indeed, very fluently alxmt art as she does about most sub- ' jeets 4 whether they concern politics, re- J ligion or science. She is not only a well-bred, but she is a very brilliant woman. Mrs. Sarah Ray, a washerwoman of Leadville, who has made a fortune of 51,000,000, has had an eventful life. I She was the first white woman who . ever dared to set foot in Leadville, and | os surh helped found the city. She dug in the mines, scoured the plains as ’ a scout, and, last, but not least, took in washing from the Leadville miners, ; and todav has a snug little fortune that pays her an income of $30,000 a year. She is npw a woman of about 1

When the perform- : anee was over and Mario neared the stage-box ill response to the re-call, she i would bend on him a look full of ad- ; miration and then glide away to her ■ carriage. Alexandras daughters, the three, voting Princesses, Louise, Victoria, and ; Maud, differ as greatly in character as ■ 'in physiognomy. The eldest, Louise. I has the tine features and the grace of her mother; she is gentle, gay and affable, in short, the Parisienne of the ! three. •Victoria, the second daughter, is the image of her father; she is , | proud, rather reserved, and attaches , herself little to people: she unites to a , i thorough consciousness of her own i I dignity a generous heart, easily moved; > her intellect, w hich is greatly devel- | ' oped, only renders her the more engag- : ’ ing. The youngest sister Princess ; i Maud, can still lie called a baby; she is I about 10 years of age. and in appear- ; ance bears a greit likeness to Imi-i grandmother, the Queen: she is good- | hearted and, at times, even a little serf- i ’ ous. One of the moat noted women in . New York journalism is Miss Middy ■ Morgan, who does the cattle reports | ' for some four New Y’ork papers, among them the Times imi[ Tribune. \ , She lias acquired a fund of knowledge ; i of cattle and horses, both on the farm and turf, which may be envied by the , most cxpei-jenced male sportsman. Her journalistic career dutos fl'ODl fin interview with Horace Greeley, whose I rather jocose allusion to the need of a ! reporter of cattle sales was turned to I earnest account. Miss Morgan is descended from an old family of Irish gentry, and away back in her girlhood | days she was the best horseback rider j in" all Ireland. She is an immensely 1 tall woman, six feet two inches in . ! bight, um! li»>F shoulders are broad and I square so that aim iu«lis upieb lilfP U man in disguise.

If ' we should wake up In the next world and find that there was none, we should have occasion to approach ourselves for i many neglected opportunities for a good i time lost, We uro too Hwbitioiii* to ffpt ! rich. And if there is another and a hotter world than this, those of our ■ restless, over-reaching, toiling rich i men, whr> find themsplvna wlw? their | gold is melting ami wafer is H:qrcp,may regret that they did not make better | use of their money in a country where it was current and at a time when it j was at par. Ij was the evident intent i of the Creator to make the life of his I creatures an enjoyable and a pleasant I one. To birds and bears and fishes He gave the air and earth and water for their enjoyment; to them He gave but little care—that of procuring food for themselves ami for their young—and the young are not too long permitted to depend upon the parents’ care. Toman He gave dominion over the earth ; and through art and science, skill, labor and industry he is to subject it to his use. . That use is for the advancement of his pleasure, healthful rational enjoyment’ | The man or w oman who does not make ; that use of life is as unnatural, and ungrateful, as wicked and absurd, as the I well-fed bird who sits in the sun and j will not sing. And the parent who ' does not delight in xueing children em joy themselves, is as nnuutural as the austere sheep who sulks and frowns when lambkins sport upon the meadow in the sunlight. There is more sunshine than sha.low, if we only look for it; there is more gay than grave things; : there is more of music than of melody, i and joy and gladness in the natural universe than there is of sad and solemn sound and gloomy sight. The bright and glorious orb around which our bright earth revolves has only hero and there a dark spot u>>on its shining surface; the moon is always half in light, and reflects more of sunshine than shadow; the stars are ever bright, ami when hidden by the darkness of the intervening clouds, these are silverlined. There are i Books in the running bruuks, • Sermons in stones, and good in everything. There is music in the rustling wind, the babbling stream, the insect's breathi ing-hum, the song of birds and the i whirr of cities; solemn anthems sung in forest leaves, and subliinest melody i from the ocean wave. There are grand j paintings of the Master hung upon the arching vault as the sunset lingers upon our western sky; scenes upon our hills as they change from emerald green to russet brown: more gorgeous lamli scapes in our valleys than Claude Lorraine could paint: more beauties in the i heart of mountains than the glowing pencil of artists can catch ami transfer ito canvas. This is a jolly world of ours if we would make it so. It is a glorii ous life spread out for our enjoyment for the three score years and teu of our : allotment, if with happy hearts and cheerful minds we would make it so. Too many of us. ambitious of power, j )>ower to grow rich, annoyed by small vexations, make life a constant battle | from the cradle to the grave. They were burying a man who died lin southern Indiana, when a tramp I leaned over the fence and inquired: “Was he a statesman?” “No.” I “Orator ?” “No.” “Poet ?” I “ Ifo ” “Great inventor, or anything of that I sort?” “No; he was simply an honest man.” “Oh, that’s it, eh? Why don’t his ' widder take the body over tn Chicago i and put it on exhibition and make a i stake?”

How Tarantulas Li'-’iit. There wu recently received in l>« n ver, for :-iorc Vxiiibitiou, t.\o fullgrown tarantulas, one of the brown and the other of the black variety. The brown fellow was caged in a common cigar box and the black one ip a glass jar. As thev could not be exhibited to advantage in contrivances of this kind, and as they were not very plea.,ant companv to l ave running about loose, a box almost two feet square with a glass top was procured, on the bottom of which a laver of sand was spread to make the animals feel at home. The cover was then drawn and the two spiders pitched into it from their separate cages. No sooner did the one discover the other's presence than they rushed at each other as.viciously as tw o panthers, and immediately closed in deadlv embrace. They came together with a bound, and then twining thenlong hairy legs about each other rolled over and o'er in the sand, biting each other savagely, and then tugging with all their might as if endeavoring to crush each other by sheer muscular power. Incredible as it may seem, this | sort of warfare was kept up for six hours, during most of w hich time. it eould not be seen that either was gaining the slightest advantage, as neither showed any sign of disposition to end the tight except by the death of his adversary. At. last the black one succumbed and rolled over dead on the sand, while the victor immediately pro- j ceeded to reap the spoils of his long battle. Seizing his vanquished enemy in his stout horns, or pincers, or whatever contrivance he has for that purpose, hp rapidly tore him limb from limb and coolly proceeded, iff trite eqnnp balistie fashion, to make a meal of him, In a very short time nothing was left except a little pile of legs and pieces | of shidl to mark thp spot where one tarantula had fidltm ftffd another had dined.—He>roe>’ Tribune. Sails Surpassing Steam. About the year of 1844 began the most important era in the history of American ship-lniilding. Our Liverpool packets had already demonstrated the cajiftbilitins of Off! bffilflPl* ftffd Jffftvinps. The Canada, for example, under the command of Captain Seth G. Macy, made irips with almost the regularity of ; a streamer. Fourteen to sixteen days was the average length of her voyage | • bctwooii the two ports. Tills may have ; ! been an extreme case,but the fact remains I that these “liners” made a remarkable i record. » » « YVithout mooting the question about the respective mgyits pf thp nptpd Ibprdwn clippers ami the American ships whjcli during ft period of perhaps fifteen years circled the globe with their vast expanse of canvas, it is not too strong a statement to say that some of the runs made by our ships at that time have never h'pe.n laijrpftsawl by either sail or steam. The great buildpr of pimkots. Isftftc Wpbb, died in 1843. Donald McKay, a i native of Nova Scotia, who removed in j youth to Newburyport and made a mime : there and in Boston, began at the same time to win a world wide reputation for i clipper ships of a size and speed hitherto unexampled. Many competitors appeared at the same time. The ship j Jam?s Hufprs, Iffdh b.v McKay. Htff 440 ■ miles in twenty-four hours. The ship ■ Red Jacket built at Rockland, Me., ran 2.280 miles in seven days, or 326 miles i per diem, for a week. The Flying Cloud McKay’s most celebrated ship, once t mqito 874 knots, or 433 miles in twentyjour huui's amt iwtuiQ Hvt> mlffUlpm j equal to 17.17 milesai;hour. Toappyei eiate these distances, compare them w ith the greatest ilistimeo ever made in tw entvrfonr hours by a Liverpool steamI er, the new and celebrated Alaska, in the fastest westward passage yet < acomplished from Liverpool to New York; Her greatest run was 419 miles I in twgutyzfoqr lioios. 'l’his pi-ttrl-s w'hilt all sailors know, bill which few landsweii are aware, that, with a strong and ! steady favoring wind, it is possible for a sailing ship to equal the speed of an Atlantic steamship.— The Century, AiiHee tu t'mmtry (oiislns.
