THERE will be a Sabbath school festival given at Union ciiurch, five mile8 north of the city, Thursday evening July 18th. Good music, both vocal and instrumental, will be in attendance. Everybody is invited to attend.
THE reports indicate that it is getting cnuch cooler in St. Louis than for the #ast few days. The climax is passed. sOn Mooday fifty-four deaths occurred, and on yesterday but four. We may expect it, according to all indications, to get cooler from now on. Persons thinking of going on the excursion on Saturday need have ».o fear. The excursion will be a great success.
AN old fisherman reports the heat so great that it is cooking the fish in the river, and cases are reported of five large fish, caught in the bend above the I. & St. «'L., bridge, all nicely boiled, ready for the table. Fish can now be caught, ftjftily in '-the hand .just take a boat and float along .the river, and when you see a fish,quietly reach out and gran it.

WE arte told by the Notionals that factories are closed, farn.s are lying fallow people are hungry, and naked, and without houses in which to rest their Weary heads. For the most part, we take it, this characterization of the condition 6f things is maliciously false. Certainly it is not true here. But the marvel is yet to come. Factory wheels are to be set whirling, farms are to be cultivated and become uncommonly productive, the hungry are to be ted, the naked clothed and the shelterless ones housed bv—what? Why, by setting certain printing presses at work issuing an un certain quantity pf rectangular pieces of green papeV.

Jones. Not long ago Mrs. Smi»h purchased a cabinet organ foi an unmarried daughter, and on it that young lady was accustomed to play, joining the music with the sweet songs of her melodious voice. But while others enjoyed this music, the strains that crossed the dividing fence and came to
Mrs.
Jones'envious ears, were like cow bells jangled out of tune and harsh. Day after day the music of this rival's organ has sunk like iron into her soul and she has been compelled to ascend to the garrett or fathom the cellar to give vent to the torture that was tugging at her heart. But there is a time when patience ceases to be a virtue, and lo Mrs. Jones that time came yesterday.
Evangeline Smith was playing on the hateful organ. Mrs. Jones' wrath was roused. Seizing a tin pan and an iron spoon 6he rushed into the yard and beat and banged that unoffending pan as if 6he thought it was the person of Mrs. Smith. Nor was this all. With a preliminary snort, to the crowd that her performance ha^,. gathered, announcing that if
f-'jshet,.-|-
couldn't
afford to buy" an organ she, at least, could keep in tin pan6, she^ lifted up her voice in a prolonged series of howls, up and down the scale, crescendo and diminuendo, fortissimo and pianissimo, (though not much of this latter,) deceiving herself with the fond delusion that she was a prima donna^ and fairly overwhelming Evangeline with thesple'nder of her song. As there seemed to be no admission fee, and as it was an excellent variety snow, the crowd grew as the performance progressed, and cheered her to the echo when fairly winded, (for Mrs. Jones is an old woman, old enough to know better.) She retreated to the house proud in the consciousness of having "laid over them stuck up Smithses.'
.fOMB Or MY OWM EXPERXEKCES. (By C. Von Trotha.) Among those facts which are not fully appreciated or known we have mention, that the women, though using the same idioms as the men, nevertheless talk another language—a language which has its own grammar and its own dictionary. That, therefore, might be the
cmk reason tor it happening that women and

same meaning. Only industrious studies and assiduous endeavours are able to procure us the knowledge of that mystery, the dictionary of the women.
This knowledge is already implanted in the minds of the girls. The sixteen vear old maid, knowing as many romances too much as she has read, is looking for an ideal. She is dreaming about a pale youth with pale cheeks, shining like moonlight, with long curled hair, singer and hero at the same time, a •'pell mell" of Romeos, Leanders, and Marquis Posas. In the most cases the young girl discovers the hero she is looking for in the private teacher, who gives her lessons in literature at her home. He is pale from hunger, and wears long hair because he does not iike to confer his tribute to the barber for having his hair cut. The young maid silently adores him. But how does she explain her feelings in saying, "I admire him Certainly not, If she pretends to talk about her ideal, the girl says with the greatest defiance: "He is insufferable to tne.""•'**'J
Perhaps I h«ve been able already' to explain with this one quotation what I would like to have understood talking about our women's dictionary. In proportion to the maturity the dictionary keeps on growing. In th? course of years the circuit of her cognizance increases, and at the same time the abundance of expressions.
Therefore, a person has lo be able to translate. We will take for instance, the sentence "My friend, C., keeps a very nice residence." Having consulted the dictionary of the women, we soon will find that the meaning of this sentence is in our language: "I have to live a very poor and miserable life, because my husband can not afford to keep a nicely furnished house!"
Whenever I should try to write a grammar about the women's idioms, I hardly think I should want practical principles. "Dear Harry," to s6t another example, "my friend Sadie, this old stupid, ugly looking person, went with her husband to Saratoga.
Translation^ "I am handsome and ingenious and I would very well claim that my husband goes with me to Saratoga. If he would earn more, it would not be necessary for us to stick always at home."
Practical principle: "My husband does not like me any more." Translation: "My husband has made me a present to my last ahniversary which corresponds with his income."
Practical principle: "My friend Anny only lives fordresse3 and amusements, I pitv her husband, indeed."
Translation: "My friend lives a very happy life, she enjoys her living. I envy her in regard to her husband."

Tne seven elephants, unlike the be reaved little brother in the lugubrious poem, were still seven, and one of them occupied his position in uncertain grandeur, on top of the huge tableau car of India. The camels were also there in all their ungainly gravity, and chariots, "panoplitd retainers," inspiring music, gay banners, beautiful horses and ponie?, and a grand caravan of landscaped cages, presented a rich bizarre and animated o— spectacle, unsurpassed in arenic annals, laughing at how much I have been surThe richhess and liberality of the outside prised once, When the wife of one of my display justified large anticipations as to lormer colleagues of my studies, told me the concealed resources, and will attract

I laughed aloud. Now the misunderstanding seemed to me to be very clear. "I beg your pardon, Madam," I remarked, "perhaps you take me for your tailor, I am "I have the pleasure to know you," said she.
We both became embarrassed, more and more, until her husband returned and redeemed us. "I beg your pardori sir, for receiving you in such a manner," means, "Pity me poor victim, because I have to su&er so much, my husband not being able to supply me with the necessary comtort and luxury."

Anything a lady wants: "Sic voio sic jubeo—l'Etat c'e&t moi—car tel est mon plaisie—what would the world say" and so on all that can be found in thei»e three words: "lhat won't do." When ever you try to show a lady the necessity of any measure—she always wil. reply: ""That won't do." And now prove to her if you are able to do it, that it will do—certainly bhe will defeat you with the triumphant phrase." You m.(i-tlks don't undrstand that." Witcnv v, a lady tells me: "That won'' do," I in w-r wait until she slings into my face .c twin-phrase of the failing understanding. I rather keep silent and think in uiy inind: "The will of a woman is God's will."'
When 1 »as yet a neophyte of that department, 1 pitied the tame young lady very much, when she stammered,, one evening: ••'Uas! A person has to peri^^ spirit ually in the conjugal life." "Ho# is that, Madam." I asked her in astonishment. "Don't you live in very convenient circumstance*? 11O cares press upon you? your husband does not make you fight through the battle ot existence." "That's all well enough," said 6he, "but with th 8e consultations with the cook day by day about the bill of fare and with the care for a thousand ot trifling matters —who is able to keep herself upright?"

But this may be sufficient for'the time. If 1 should undertake to exhaust the dictionary of the female sex, I ought to have the "£anaergeschenk" of an eternal life here on earth. Perhaps the reader will be kind enough to concede that this dictionary is not a product of my imagination, but that it exists, loosely it is true but requiring only a master-hand for its compilation. He who would understand a woman, must comprehend the technicalities of her dictionary.
THE VINCENNES EXCURSION. The excursion given by the Ringgold band and Governor's guards, to inceunes, yesterday, was, barring the excessive warm weather. a decided success. The train carrying the excursionists, left the Union depot at 9 A. M., there being eight coaches comtortably filled and not crowded, as precaution was taken to take coaches enough so that the trip could be enjoyed and the passengers not be crowded. The train arrived at its destidation about 1 -20, and the excursionists went to the different hotels and restaurants, and after dinner the throng commenced going to the picnic grpunds, known as Brouilette's Grovf, where a large platform, about 50x100 feet, had been erected, swings put up, and everything arranged for the comfort and enj&yment of the excursionists. Hacks, cabs, omnibusses and other vehicles, were constantly making trips to and from the grounds, and in addition to this, the pretty little steamer ''Belgrade," made a trip to the grounds every half hour. The picnicers amused themselves in tripping the light fantastic toe, playing croquet, swinging, and—drinking that well-known beverage, lager beer, until 6 p. M., when they returned to the city. About 8:45 the train started homeward, arriving here at 10:25, with everyone sale and sound and all looking as though they had enjoyed themselves.
One circumstance took place which caused considerable hard feeling among the excursionists who stopped at the La Plsnte House, which, was advertised to feed them at twenty-five cents each, and when it came time for settlement, were charged double that amount. About 250 took dinner at the La Plante, but very few, if any, patronized the bouse at !supper time. a*. ». -, 1 ,»
