First Impressions of England.

Here are some of my first impressions of England as seen from the carnage and from the cars. How very English! I recall Birket Foster’s “Pictures of English Landscape"—a beautiful, poetical series of views, but hardly more poetical than the reality. How thoroughly England is groomed! Qur New England out-of-doors landscape often looks as if it had just got out of bed, and had not finished its toilet. The glowing green of e\erything strikes me —green hedges in place of our rail fences, always ugly, and our rude stone walls, which are not wanting in a certain look of fitness approaching to comeliness, and are really picturesque when lichen-coated, but poor features of landscape as compared to these universal hedges. lam disappointed in the trees, so far; I have not seen one large tree as yet. Most of the trees are of very moderate dimensions, feathered all the way up their long, slender trunks, with a lopsided mop of leaves at the top, like a wig which has slipped away. I trust that I am not finding everything couleur de rose; but I certainly do find the cheeks of children and young persons of such brilliant rosy hue as I, do not remember that I have ever seen before. I am almost ready to think this and that child’s face has been colored from a pink saucer. If the Saxon youths exposed for sale at Rome, in the days of Pope Gregory the Great, had complexions like these children, no wonder that the Pontiff exclaimed, not Angli, but angeli! All this may sound a little extravagant, but I am giving my impressions without any intentional exaggeration. How far these first impressions may be modified by after experiences there will be time enough to find out and to tell. It is better to set them down at once just as they are. A first impression is one never to be repeated; the second look will see much that was not noticed, but it will not reproduce the sharp lines >6f the first proof, which Ms always interesting, no matter what the eye or the mind fixes upon. “I see men as trees walking.” That first experience could not be mended. When Dickens landed in Boston he was struck with the brightness of all the objects he saw—buildings, signs, etc. When I landed in Liverpool everything looked very dark, very dingy, very massive in the streets I drove through. So in London, but in a week it all seemed natural enough.— o. W. Holmes.

Gallic Propriety.

Nothing is more curious in the history of handkerchiefs than the period ■when French women were supposed to be innocent of the existence of such an article, the handkerchief then being tabooed in polite conversation, while it was beyond the daring of an actor or actress to exhibit a handherchief on the stage, however tearful the dramatic situation might be. Mlle. Duchenois was brave enough to break the rule by carrying a handkerchief in- her hand; but when the exigencies of the scene compelled an allusion to the obnoxious piece of cambric she spoke of it as a “light tissue;” and years afterward cries of indignation saluted the utterance of the awful word of De Vigne’s adaptations of Shakspeare. Josephine, the Empress, brought this to an end. She had bad teeth, and to hide them she adopted the custom of carrying a small square handkerchief, bordered with costly lace, which she was constantly raising to her lips. The ladies of the court imitated this, and the handkerchief was elevated to the important position it has ever since /maintained in the feminine toilet. After the Empress Josephine was divorced, in 1809. she retired to her beautiful seat of Malmaison, where she and her ladies worked daily embroidered handkerchiefs, which were frequently interchanged as tokens of friendship. One of white silk, embroidered in roses—the work of her own needle—she presented to the Empress of Russia.—Clothier and Furnisher.

Daghestan Mountaineers.

G. Radde has written the following account of the mountaineers of Daghestan: “On my arrival at Kouroush, a nest of the Lesghians hidden away amid rocks, I went to some pains to find a marked type of the population. From an anthropological point of view the inhabitants of the Samur heights are a mixed population. Brown hair is most common in both sexes, and light gray eyes are very seldom seen among them. Both men and women have very thin heads of hair, and the men not only shave their heads, but cut the beard so '“ as to leave only two narrow’ strips on - either side of the chin. The J e wish type, which is almost common in the plain of Samur, is not to be met with here. The women dress like their Tartar sisters.” They take particular pride in their shoes, which are embroidered, of different colors, and ornamented with gold thread, and Dr. Radde considers them so pretty and original as to deserve a book to themselves. The higher one goes in the social scale the greater is the labor thrown on the woman and the more idle does the man become. During the Doctor’s stay at Kouroush as many as forty men were always to be found sleeping constantly in front of his house from morning till evening. The male considers labor dishonorable to his sex. Th*, Lesghian women are at work from sunrise to sunset. He has even seen them building houses.

India’s Poetic Religion.

The Tamil Brahmins have a peculiarly poetic language, and, though their ideas are not always poetical, yet they are generally picturesque. The insect kingdom is the human world in disguise, and accordingly they call the bee a Brahmin from its selfish exclusiveness and its dislike to insects than bees; the wasp is the videgar, or priest; the grasshopper and locust, soldiers, from their destructive qualities; a large insect, being a species of glow-worm, a cowherd or milkman ; the mosquito and the flea, household servants; the bug, a doctor; the butterfly, a Brahmin woman, and the horsefly, a dog. And, in conclusion, should any of my readers ever desire the speddy departure of a Brahmin from his house, I have but to say let

him call into the room a dog, for to a pure Brahmin a dog or a fowl is as much an abhorrence as is a hog to an orthodox Hebrew or to'faithful followers of Mohammed.—Non Francisco Clironicle.

Music's Power Over Idiots.

It has been stated that idiots appear to most advantage when under the influence of music, and that there are very few cases which are unaffected thereby. Thus we are told how a new life is infused into these unfortunate persons by the harmony of sweet sounds; “all exhibit pleasure; some move their bodit s in time to the air which is played, others sing after their own fashion; some even of the most torpid, when looking on for some time as some of their less apathetic companions dance, suddenly become animated, start up and dance in the;r own way.” Mr. Plott, in his “History of Staffordshire,” relates the case of an idiot who chanced to live within the sound of a clock, and always amused himself with counting the hour of the day whenever the clock struck. The clock being spoiled by ac. ident, . the idiot continued to strike and count the hour without the help of it, in the same manner he had done when it was entire. Indeed, in mental cases music from the earliest period has been considered highly efficacious, and it is how both Pythagoras and cured maniacs by melodious sounds. Coming down to modern times, much, has been written on the subject, and experiments of various kinds made with more or less success.—Gentleman’s Magazine.

How Rothschild Made His Money.

When Rothschild came to Paris in 1812 he possessed $20,000. At his death his private fortune amounted to $55,000,000 and that of the firm to over $500,000,000. He owed his success to his happy knack of always “taking fortune at the flood,” and to his careful observation of all political events that might tend to make or mar his prosperity. Once he was suffering from some cerebral complaint and had to undergo a difficult and dangerous operation. His surgeon, Dr. Dupuytren, had strictly forbidden all mental excitement as likely to have fatal consequences. Rothschild lay half conscious on his bed when tidings were brought of the assassination of the Duke of Berry. The patient immediately jumped up, though the blood was streaming over his face, the bandage having come undone in the excitement, and, dragging himself across the room, rang the bell with great violence. “The Duke of Berry is’murdered! Sell out! sell out!” he cried out to his alarmed attendants, as they rushed into the room, and then he fell_back in a swoon. By this transaction he saved considerable sums of money. — La Chronigue du Temps.

Redolent of Garlic.

I remember a charming French friend of mine who used, now and again, to give himself a great treat of gigot stuffed with garlic; after which meal he would drink a few glasses of tafia, smoke a cigarette or two of caporal, and then call upon me and invariably kiss me. His breath was attar of roses or Ess. Bouquet compared to the person of an average Spaniard. By an extravagant and continuous consumption of garlic, tbese people, men and women, get It into their skins. From their skin it passes into their clothes, so that they walk about in a small personal atmosphere of garlic indescribably sickly and sickening. A Spanish gentleman remarked to me one day in a Madrid salon, while praising English women, their beauties, virtues, etc.: “There is only one fault I detected in them—their skin has no perfume. When I kiss a Spanish lady’s hand I smell that delicious national odor that w’e all adore; but an English lady’s hand, though delicately white and soft, does not absolutely smell of anything!” He missed, poor fellow, the taint of garlic.— Madrid lettir.

The Cap Fitted Her.

Dr. John Radcliff was in his day the most famous physican in England. He numbered kings and queens among his pafients, and received enormous fees. But he was fond of the bottle, and, as one writer says, “often found in an overstimulated condition.” Summoned one evening to a lady patient, he found himself too much inebriated to count her pulse, and so murmured, “Drunk! dead drunk!” and hastened homeward. The next morning, while exercising intense mortification oyer the recollection he received a note from the same patient, in which she said that she knew only too well her own condition when he called, and begged him to keep the matter secret. > She inclosed a hundred pound note —more probably as a bribe to silence him, than out of appreciation of the skill which she attributed to him in understanding her case.

It has been noticed that deaf mutes are rarely affected with seasickness. The semicircular canals Of the internal ear are probably absent or negative in function in these people. These canals are not organs of hearing, but of equilibration, and when disturbed give rise to vertigo and nausea. Dr. William Jones, of Cambridge, Mass., claims that a counter-irritant applied to the skin behind the ear will relieve seasickness. The counter-irritant may be a blister, or simply rubbing the part until the skin is slightly excoriated. Mb. H. Carl, 139 Fourth Street, Troy, N. Y., says: “My daughter had a sprained ankle; SL Jacobs Oil cured her in a day or two. My son had rheumatism about nine years ago; St. Jacobs Oil cured him; he has not been affected Since.” Price Fifty cents. . ■ '■ ? A peculiar system of railway charges is in vogue in California, the railroads having three classes of coaches, with dress as a distinction. First lass means elegant coaches "where well-dressed people only are allowed; second-class for men of ordinary or rough dress, and third-class for Chinamen and ncgrooß. ,; ~ ' ll -4Riches either serve, or govern their possessor.

A Seasick Passenger.

On the ocean, cares little about a storm. He is positively indifferent whether he is washed overboard or not. But, set right by a wineRiassfnl or two of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, he feels renewed interest in hi* personal safety. This .fine corrective neutralizes brackish water—oft n isompulsorily drank on shipboard, to the grievous dietrimei# of healtl—the pernicious impurities which give rise to disorders of the stomach, liver, and bowels. To the mariner, the tourist, the Western pioneer and miner, the Bitters is invaluable as a means of protection against malaria, when its seeds are latent in air and water. To the effects of overwork, mental or manual, it is a most reliable antidote, and, to the debilitated and nervous, it affords great and speedily felt relief and vigor.

Letters Which Are Passed Around.

“How many times to-day have you inquired for a letter for Lucinda Johnson?” queried the lady at the deliveryw.ndow of a colored girl about 10 years Old. “Ten times, missus.” “And didn’t I say there was no letter?” “Yes’m.” “Well, why do you come so often ? We don’t have a mail from Chicago every half hour.” “I know it, but ma reckoned dis yere letter come in two days ago an’ dat some odder ’Cinda Johnson had dun got it an’ read it an’ brought it back. You see, dar’s twenty-four’Cinda Johnsons in Detroit, an when dar’s a letter fur any of ’em it has to sorter go around. I’ll be in agin dis eavenin’.”— Detroit Free Press.

A Challenge.

This little fodder plant has taken such a marvelous hold of the people, it has provoked more discussion than anything of its kind ever known. Its discoverer has been the mark for cr.ticisni from everybody, while the Moxie has been qili -tly capturing the women. Drinking a large amount seem, to leave no disturbance. At the same time the cynics say it is coca, cocoaine, arsenic, strychnine, and alcohol in a new disguise. Meanwhile its discoverer, an eminent physician, offers .$25,000 to any chemist or other person who will find either or any other ingredient in it more injurious than Wintergreen or common bitter-root, which those who have tried it accept as a fact

The Threat Was Worse than the Deed.

I was greatly edified in reading a paragraph in a-Scottish newspaper about a serious poaching affray which had taken place in Aberdeenshire. One of the poachers happened to be arrested, and, having been duly punished for killing game, he was fined by the sheriff £1 for having threatened to “break the keeper’s face.” The victim paid the fine and then straightway went and carried out most e tfectually his threat, and “bfoke the keeper’s face. ” Brought before one of the great unpaid, he was fined 7 shillings 6 pence for doing that for which he had been fined £1 for threatening to do.—London Truth. From Philipsburg, Pa., Mr. S. M. Cross writes, briefly and pointedly, thus: “Your St. Jacobs Oil has cured me of neuralgia of the face and head.” Price Fifty cents. Charles Reade in his memoirs says of Ellen Terry: “Ellen Terry is an enigma. Her eyes are pale, her nose rather long, her mouth nothing particular. complexion a delicate brick-dust, her hair rather like tow. Yet, somehow, she is beautiful. Her expression kills any pretty face you see beside her. Her figure is lean and bony, her hand masculine in size and form. Yet she is a pattern of fawnlike grace. Whether in movement or repose, grace pervades the hussy. In character impulsive, intelligent, weak, hysterical—:n short, all that is abominable and charming in woman.” The Teuton or Germanic race does not begin to affect history until the coming of the events attendant on the downfall of Home. The Celts figure much earlier, those of Cisalpine Gaul had received the Roman franchise at the hands of Julius Cmsar, and Boman citizenship was also made to embrace the people of Transalpine Gaul, Spain, and the British Islands. The term Huguenots, applied to French followers of Calvin, means persons associated by oath. Dr. Pierce’s “Pleasant Purgative Pellets” cleanse and purify the blood and relieve the digestive organs. The tail of a fox is called a brush, but that does not make a Tabbit’s tail a hair brush. i

A New Summer Resort.

The completion, May 15,1887, of the Orleans, West Baden and French Lick Springs Branch of the Monon Boute, brings the justly celebrated West Baden and French Lick Springs into greater prominence, and within *an easy, delightful journey to both the wearied toiler and the invalid. For a period reaching back to ante-stage coach days, when Tippecanoe regained his vigor by drinking the waters of “Dry Lick.” as they were then called, these Springs have been favorably known for their permanent curative qualities, being remarkably efficacious in all diseases of the skin, dyspepsia, rheumatism, liver trouble, Briglit’s disease, and in fact all chronic complaints where a powerful tonic, with alterative treatment, is required. In later days, when the hardships were a little lessened by stages, the locality became known as “French lack Springs,” after the creek into which the waters empty. Invalids endured every hardship to reach the Springs, and were amply recompensed bv the almost instant relief afforded by these highly curative waters. They are located about eighteen miles northwest of Drleans, Ind., and the principal Springs are in two groups, situated about a mile apart, the group farthest northwest from Orleans being known as “French Lick,” and -the other group as “West Baden.” The medicated water percolates into huge basins of whetstone formation, thence flowing between soft mossy banks to Lick Creek and List River. At ’each group has been erected an elegant hoteh capable of accommodating four hundred guests, and each hotel has been named after its Respective group. The surrounding country >s, indeed, a paradise for layers of primeval nature, or devotees of the rod and gun.

Ten Million Acres More.

There are over 10,000.000 of acres of the finest grazing and farming lands in Dakota lying west and north of Devil’s Lake, which have been withheld from the operations of the homestead and pre-emption laws because of the questionable claims of a small band of Turtle Mountain Chippewas to the land. In January, 188(5, Surveyor General Taylor, of Dakota, contracted for the surveys of 1,50 ',OOO acres of these lands in compliance with existing relations, but in less than a month, w.ih characteristic ignorance and perversity, Commissioner Sparks issued an order indefinitely postponing ths surveys, and even went so far as to decline to place on file plats of several townships surveyed under contracts approved prior to the. action suspending surveys, after their examination in the fie d and tlieir correctness was affirmed. Mr. H. C. Green, as contractor for these surveys, appealed .to the Secretary of the Interior, who has recently overruled the Land Commissioner’s action amt ordered that the suspended contracts be approved and plats of surveys already made be tiled in the proper local land offices for disposal under the land laws. The Surveyor General has instructed the contractors to proceed with the surveys as rapidly as possible. This action causes great rejoicing among the settlers in the Devil’s Lake land district, hundreds of whom nettled upon unsurveyed lands after the reversal, in 1882, by Secretary Teller, ol the order of Secretary Schurz, made two years previous, withholding the lands from occupancy. Secretary Teller, in his opinion, now affirmed by Secretary Lamar, says: “I am of the opinion that the claim is not well founded, yet if it should appear on a careful examination of the facts that such a claim does exist, it will be the duty of the Government to make proper compensation to the Indians. I do not think nearly 10,000,005 acres of valuable lands, on which a great number of settlers are now located, should be withheld from the operations of the homestead and pre-emption laws because a question has been raised whether the small'Daticr of Indians (not exceeding three hundred) have a claim on this land or not. It is not contended by anyone that the Government has recognize 1 this claim of the Indians by treaty with them, and the Indians make no" use of the land except to roam over it, not cultivating, I 'tliitik, any of it.” ” The vast tract of land now opened to settlement possesses natural advantages unsurpassed by any other part of Dakota. If? lands are exceedingly fertile, affording the choicest pasturage, and producing wheat of the finest qua'ity, and rivaling that of the famous Saskatchewan country. There is an abundance of wood along the streams, providing cheap lumber, as well' as fuel for the eirly settlers. The extensive coal deposits of the Turtle Mountains, and in the ’Mouse River valley, insure cheap fuel for the future, and invite manufacturing industries. The removal of all barriers to the settlement and development of the country will hasten the completion and extension of the Cando, Bottineau, and other projected branches of the Manitoba Railroad Company. With its free lands, wealth and diversity of natural resources, and present and prospective facili_tieg_foi- reaching the primary market*, we know of no region offering so many inducements to intending enTgrants. —-—~ During the next two or three years we shall witness a tide of immigration into the extreme northern part of Dakota, and a transformation of virgin prairies into fine farms, and homes of prosperous and happy people, scarcely equaled in the history of Dakota, and which was impossible in tlie settlement of other States and Territories.— North Dakota Farmer.

A Summer Jaunt.

Each succeeding year, after the first bright freshness of the spring foliage has disappeared ’o give place to the dust and dryness of the fierce June sunshine, when the gentle showers of early summer haye been superseded by the sprinkl.ng-cart and garden-hose, and the spring overcoat discarded for the linen duster, when the business man begins to hug the,shady side of the street on his daily trips to and from his office, a very large proportion of the people of our great cities turn their thoughts toward the country and commence laying plans lor the annual summer vacation, which, m these days of rapid moneygetting and higli-pre.:sure living, has become an indispensable clement in the calendar of every man of wealth and woman of fashion whose line of life has been cast ip the seething, bubbling, tumultuous swim of modern metropolitan existence.
