Love and esteem are tbe first principles o friendship, which always is imperfect where either ol the two la wanting. "Isn't your husband a little bald?" asked one lad v of another, In a store, yesterday. "There isn't a bald hair la bis head," was the hasty reply of the wife. Look not mourntully lato tbe past, it comes not back: again; wifely improve the present, it is thine; fro lorth to meet tbe shadowy future without fear and with a manly heart.

So near are the boundaries of panegyric and invective tbat a worn out sinner Is sometimes found to make the best de claimer against aln. The same high sea soned descriptions which, In bis tin regenerate state, served to influence his appetites in a new province of a moralist. will serve bim (a little turned) to expose tbe enormity ot those appoiites in other men. Tbe character of a gentleman la a relative .term, which can hardly subsist where there Is no marked distinction of persons.

Grace In a great measure is a natural gift elegance Im pile cultivation, or something of more artificial character. A rustic, un educated girl may be graceful, but an elotränt woman must be accomplished and well trained. It is the same with thins as vith person; we talk of a graceful tree, but of an elegant house or other buildinjr. Animals may be graceful, but they can not bo elo - gant.

' A BALLON BOARD LOVK MAKIKO AMOSO THB QOIMACX anEKSLAUD , BEAUTIES : DISCO DAUSbXS MODJtLS IN, THEIR WAY WAMZ1NO WITH A BUTTERFLY AND OTHB FLKA8ACT PASTIMES. The New York Herald, ol Thursday, has the following most interesting' correspondence, dated Disco, August 7, 1875: A little land-locked bay, large enough for two or three ships to swing In,' abut In on one side by lowering red cliffy, between whose tops may bs seen tbe edge of "a glacier; on tbe other by a rocky elope, urmouut"d by a flagstaff without a flag. Lying in the bay are two small schooners and a vessel with a long, low, dark hull and slender masts, stepped back, that give her a raklne, uuiy air as she lies reflected with tbe tall cliff in tbe clear, smooth water ot the little bay. Scattered over tbe rocky slope are ten or fifteen half wooden, half earthen booses, standing about in a loose, free and easy manner, quite Independent ot each other, as though despising tbe restraint of streets, to which they do not mike tbe sligbest pretention. Tbe rakish looking vessel is tbe Pandora, the little bay is tbat of Oodbavn and the collection of houses scattered up the slope comprises the. little town of Llevely, in North Qreenland, usually known by tbe name of Disco. Tbe Danes, by tbe way, seem to be ruinously extravagant in the way of nomenclature. One would almost think tbat they had resolved tbat this country, so poor in inhabitants, should bs at least rich In names. Thus tbe island on wblob the above mentioned town is situated 1 called Disco. The name ot tbe little harbor is Uodhavn, while the collection of fifteen or twenty bouses, which make up the Villau itself, Is called L'eveiy. They ara evidently determined that no error shall be committed In regard to it, and tbat there shall be no danger of THB TOWN BEIKO MISTAKEN FOB TUE HARBOR. A sunny, pleasant little spot it is just now, daring 1: few short weeks of summer, when the grass Is peeping out timidly between tbe rocks, and the great round, smooth bowlders exchange their winter dres of snow for one ot moss, deep green and soft; when tbe melted snow.comes tumbling down tbe ravines in white, fleecy torrents.and the tall, rugged cliffs in tbe glow of the unimer sun turn a warm reddish purple, i km a great red curtain drawn across to shelter tbe little bay from tbe biting northeru blasts. Altogether the little pl.ca has a warm and comfortable look, very plearant alter the chilly winds and icy air of these northeru teas. Trees thera are none; of vegetation, properly speaking, there is none; only a little crass and moss, and an occasional flower tbat shoots np almost as soon as the snow disappears, and smiles and waves its tiny bead in tbe afternoon sun as gaily as do any of its sisters in tbe tropical air ot tbe South. The world in general probably his a very exaggerated notion of the size and importance ol Disco or LJeveiy. une continually reads of it in Arctic books of travel. Arctic ships re always putting into it, or going out of it, or touching at it, or get ting a fresh start irom it, or having some other relation with it, and, in short, Disco plays so important a role in Arctic discov ery that one very unreasonaDiy, pernaps, gets an idea that it is a rich and thriving metropolis, with thronged streets and busy marts, where all TUB LUXURIA OK TUB ARCTIC WORLD, all the commodities of the Polar regions are to be found in unlimited quantities. But It if, in truth, just the kind of place I have de scribed; so wild, so primitive, bearing so little resemblance to anything resembling civilization that it Is difficult to bring oneself to believe it is the Disco of which we hear so much. Tbe Danish governor ot the place, Mr. Elberg, called ou us soon after we dropp3d anchor, and from him we learned that ins Alert ana Discovery, tne i-ogusn Arctio exploring ships, had proceeded on their voyage north ten days previously, and that the Valorous bad sailed for England about the same time. It was with tbe Val orous we bad expected lo send home our first letters, and we were considerably dis appointed to hear of her departure, m our letters will now have to go by Denmark, by some Danish merchant ship, to be mailed at Copenhagen.' We al went ashore ' in the course of tbe forenoon and returned tbe governor's call. We found him living lu a nest little wooden house, pleasantly situ ated, overlooking the bay. lie offered us wine and cigars and introduced us to his wife, who is an Esquimaux woman and an old acquaintance ot Captain Young fifteen years ago one of tbe reigning bellen ot Disco. The word governor as applied In Greenland means, it should be understood, the head or manager of a trading post. The Danes really pretend to little governmental au thority over the Esquimaux, but wisely re strict themselves to the exercise ot Influence rather than of positive power, aud as there are only eight or ten Danes in the place, Including the governor's own family, Ls would have had a limited field in which to exercise bis authority. DANISH LIFB IN DISCO. Tha men who came out here from Den mark to take charge of tbeae trading col oales seem to resign themselves to passing their lives here. They leave the world bebiod them,. and completely Identify themselves with the interests of the little colony around them. Some ol them have been in Greenland for twenty years, having only returned to Denmark once or twice during that time; and when a man has passed bo mach of bis life here be would probably And tha even if he should go back to the world. it would have no place for him; be would only be a atranger in a atrange land. Some or them marry Esquimaux wive; others go back to Denmark and induce a Danish girl to share their lonely home, and sometimes a girl comes out alone to ber future husband and gets married here. Tbe assistant governor, a young man who has been out In Greenland lor two or three years, introduced us to his Intended bride, a very pretty young lady, who spoke English remarkably well. She told us shötiad come out to pass a summer here, in order to see how she would like it before deciding to pass her lite in such monotonous isolation. She did not inform us whether the prospect pleased her or sot, and we did not care to hazard tbe question in the presence of her lover. lie informed us, howev-r, tbat she was going back to Denmark this autumn, to return next summer, when they would be married. He seemed quite convinced that she would return. We took a walk about the village. The people, young and old, men, women and children, all turned out to see us and greeted us with pleasant smiles, many of them giving us a "good morning," which they pronounced very well. THB GIRLS WBBB ALL DRESSED up in their best finery, and some of them, especially those who had Danish blood, were very pretty; only It was rather dlfllcnlt at J first to bring one's self to believe they were girls at all. This 1 the country for airs.

Bloomer. Tbe women all wear breecbe here, and .would scout the Idea of anything else as absurd, and probably Indecent. 1 should "pity the girl that tried to Introduce the fashion of petticoats in' Greenland. 'A fashionable New .York belle who should walk down Broadway In knee breecbea, cap, beots and a gentlemin's shooting jacket, with a cigar in her moutb would not be m re utterly loat In the eyes society than would be a Dlsro young - Jtdy . who should appear walking about' over . the rocky alopee In . a ..fashion able hat, ribbons, long sklrU and crinoline. Ob, the shameless hussy," " The brtzsnfaced thing," would be the verdict of every Disco woman, and Disco society would know her no more. The D sco custom appears very funny nntll you get accustomed to it, but rather pretty nevertheless. Imagine a pre:ty girl and three or four of the Disco girls are very pretty with her hair done up in a kindof a topknot on tbe top of ber bead with a red ribbon, a loose fitting jacket mads of any kind of light, thin stuff, and of any color, trimmed with a fur collar and made to put on lust like a shirt, but reaching only to tbe waist; a pair of seal skin breeches, with the hairy side out. reaching nearly to tbe knee and confined therewith a garter; a pair of high boots, meeting tbe bottom of tbe trousers, the leet aud ankles of red leather, the tops of WHITB LIKB, STARCHED ASD IROXED, and with a little fur around tbe tops, and tbe darkest, demurest eyes and the sunniest brown complexion ever painted by tbe sunshine and the sea breezes and the ocean pray and yon have a faint Idea of a Disco girl. You should see them tripping about in their little red boots, with their little abort step, scarcely eermlng to touch the ground, ao eott Is their tread, or springing over the rocks like young antelopes, to know bow charming a Rlrl may te in breeches. And they have tbe daintiest little feet and hands, too, feet and bands tbat would make the pretilsat New York girl burht with envy if she saw them; ao finely shaped, so small, so delicate and yet ho strong. And they can dance, too, like sylphs. It is the custom in Disco to give a - ball to every ship that ccmes here, and the Pandora, of course, could not form any exception to the rule. It proved to be a very great success. The ball room, it is true, was rather small for ferty or fifty people to dance in, being only twelve lel by fifteen, it was also perhaps, a little dark, being lighted by only one small window, and as it was broad daylight at ten o'clock lo the evening, It waa not thought wrrtb while to bring in candles. In fact there was no place to put candles, as tbe celling was barely six leet high, so that most of us had to be very careful not to bump our beads, and the room Ummcd full of people, except a little space in tbe middle, lour or five feet square, wbera tbe dancing was done. It was, in fact, tbe carpenter's shop, which had been cleaned out and transformed for tbe occasion, although tbe following legend inscribed over tbe door in chalk would seem to indicate that its natural and normal state was tbat of a ball room or concert hall:

' Musi chal dor eope nat 8 clock. ' ! An Inscription which our learned and erudito doctor, alfer much study and a great ex penditure of time and labor, at last deci phered to mean, "Music hall, door open at 8 o'clock," which, In fact, proved to be the only record of tbe Alertand Discovery found here, l will not deny that this hall wa. perhaps, a little warm and close when twenty of our blue jackets and tbe whole population of the village bad crowded Into it, and tbat a little more room might have been desirable. Hut then there were no pet ticoats, no crinoline, no long trains to be trampled upon a woman took up no more room man a man, and that made a vast deal of difference, ion have no conception ol tbe rroall space you can dance in when you have no petticoats to deal witb. I found I hat three feet square was oceans of room to waltz In, while for a polka I was quite lost in so much superfluous space. After a while, however, we found it bo oppres sively hot that we decided to adjourn to tbe open air. it was now li o clock. The sun had Just set, but there was a pleasant twilight which -would last all night and which was Just right for dancing. Tbe Pa-dor was lying asleep In the little bay, looking like a mere logship beneath the lowering cliffs that rose above, threatening to fall and crush her like an eggshell be neath their tremendous masses. The dancing was commenced outside with re newed enthusiasm, and I am ready to avouch tbat I never enjoyed a dance more in my life. Offloor And bluejackets, we all mixed together on equal terms, and went through waltzes, polkas and cotillon with a vigor and good will only to be acquired by foity days at sea. Tbe girls were not acquainted with all tbe loruis of cotillon which we, in THB EXUBERANCE OP OUR IMAGINATION, adopted for tbe occasion, but they were very quick to learn, and got through the most complicated figures very readily. My partner was a demure little beauty, with dark, slightly almond-shaped eyes, a skin as brown as the nut-brown maid herself, the reddest, ripest lias and dantiest little feet tbat ever were seen. A greater pleas ure even than encircling her slender waist or gazing into ber dark eyes, or floating witb heron the rbythmle motion of the danc?, was to watch her little red-booted leet as they skimmed over the ground like tbe wings of a sea bird over the waves a pleasure quite lost when yon dance with a girl who wears petticoats. And then what a hand she had So small, so delicate, ao solt and brown, it dropped in mine aa lightly a tbe falling of an autumn leaf. The motion of danclfig bad caused her boots to settle down, leaving a bit of the leg exposed between tbem and tbe breeches just above tbe knee, which, contrastlng with the white starched linen tops of the boots, appeared as brown as walnut. This exposing of a little of tbe leg above tbe boot tops is a bit of coquetry with tbe Disco girls by which they probably indemnify themselves for not wearing low necked dresses. But a girl who should expose her bust as a lady does la ber ball dress would be booted out of the village, tier queer little topknot, planted perpendicularly on the top ot her bead and tied up with a red ribbon, jus reached to my mouth, so that I mast have looked, when waltzing with ber as thosgh 1 had an enormous imperial, with a girl suspended to It by a red ribbon Young girls, by the way, tie thin topnnt op witb a red ribbon, married women with blue, widows witb black, while those who aro neither maid, wife nor widow are re stricted to green or to a simple handkerchief tied around the head. THE QUESTION "POrPED" IN ESQUIMAUX. I could not talk much with ber; but I had been studying Esquimaux with Joe, and could say a gcod many thing though, as is always the case, not the things I most wanted to eav. I opened tbe conversation during one ot tbe puses la tbe dance by uttering the following easy little word which I bad learned from Joe for the occa slon: " Audlarbatlgiumangilyarmarmaa merica?" I asked, in as carelessly natura a voice as I could assume. She looked at me in doubt. 'Nullaglnga?" I continued gravely. She evidently regarded it as eomewbat abrupt way of opening the con versatlon, but she grasped the situation in stan ly and smiled, kissed her band to me and witb a merry smile replied, "Ukbar luguangutit.' which would be equivalent in English to MYoa must ask pa, please." But her "pa" was away fishing distance of three or four days

march; and as the Pandora steamed

out ot tbe ..little.,. bay an ..hour. after tbat match was untimely broken off. But tbe greatest amusement ;was to watch Tromp." The poet has sung tbat It is tbe nature ot man to drink. I think it is tbe nature of a Dutchman to waltz. lie seemed to throw his whole soul into if, and went flying over the ground with an evident enoyment, a KTace, emootbness, wariness of motion that did one's soul good to see. and which are only acquired by people of bis nation. lie told me afterward, that sever. ven with tbe most beautiful and refined European lady, had be enjoyed a dance so much, and that he had never seen one tbat ever approached this Disco girl as awaltzer. "Whv, she does dance so lightly, as a leather" he said; Myou feel as though ahe would escape you from your fingers and fly away very quick. It is like WALTZINO WITH A BUTTERFLY." The truth Is tbat "Tromp" had fallen desperately In love with his partner. From tbe moment he discovered her he refused to dance with any olher girl and so monopo lized her th.it nobody-else bad the ghost of a chance. She was. In fact, the acknowledged belle of Disco, the prettiest girl In tbe place, and well tbe little sly boots knew t. iter utile red boots showed some very pretty needlework, done in different colored thread by ber own dainty fingern, tbe white starched and ironed linen boot tops, em broidered with some kind of open work. resembling tbat sort of thing you continoally see civilized ladles worklog upon, but which always mysteriously disappears lust wben It is ready to be worn ana Is henceortb lost to tbe vision ot man. Above this was a roll of white t ir, then a band of brown flesh and blood, then a red garter fastened with a buckle, hen a pair of sealskin breeches, of a soft mouse color, above w bleb, puffed out around tbe waUt, was a red chemise, covered by a sort of sleeve waistcoat of a light yellow, made an of a p;ec3 ntiing close around the broat and loosely over tbe bust; then a white fur collar, out of which roBe a soft rounded throat and chin, a pair of pouting lips, a little, slightly turned np, saucy nose. and such eyes it was no wonder the susceptible Fromp" fell in love at first sight. so large ana Drown and sou, and they cast upon bim, now and tben, such a timid, half tender, naif saucy glance tbat it was enough to drive a hardened old bachelor mad, let alone a young and enthusiastic adorer of the sex, like "fromp." And how divinely she danced ! It was a pure delight to watch her little leet, flittlEg over the ground like bu'.terflee, or humming Lirds, on rose buds, or anything eUe tbat is delicate, and sweet. and deligbttu'. It was not dancing, at all, it was flying, it was floating THROUGH THE AIR ON A WAVK OF RHYTHM. without even bo much as touching the ground. Her name was Darwa Peters, and she appeared to ba about hall Esquimaux, half Danleb. Her father, the pilot of tbe ittle harbor, was by far the richest and most influential man of all the Esquimaux of Disco, and we were afterward very glad to see tbe your g laoy in her own home. I was a fine, larue residence, built partly ol vruod, partly of earth, consisting of one spacious room, fineen f.et square, lighted by large glass window wblcb nlled up nearly one wnoie sue, ana a smaller ana less pre tentlous chamber. It was warmed by a s'ove. and ou tbe side opposite the window was a kind of wooden stage or platform, raised two feet above the ground, running quite across the room, on which was arrai gea coverlets, blankets and furs. Here it was tha young lady slept, with brothers and sis ters au together, nizgiedy piggiedy, like a nest ot young squirrels. There were four or nve guns nung on racxs on tne ceiling, a few religious prints around tbe wall, together with cooking utensils and all the fine cloths of the family. We had ample opportunity to examine the whole of tbe young lady's wardrobe, which we could easily distinguish, by its superior flnens!, from that ot ber younger brothers and sinter, behind which It seemed to be bashfully trying to hide itself, uer father had dogs and kyutes and an umluk or large boat, besides men employed in hunting and flihing for him. He also bad tome gold piecesstowed away in a rag.among which 1 st soms American nail eagles. (How many Americans can boast of as much?) Miss reters was, therefore, a verv great heiress, and this, together with her great beauty, a fact oi which she was as perfactly well aware as any other pretty girl would ba, made ber somewhat proud and disdainful, anaaiaposea to QUEEN IT OVER THE REST OF THE GIRLS. Rut Tromp was so desperately In love that be found even this grave defect of character charming, and defended her totly. I have said that wi we all, officers and men, mixed together on terms of perfect equality during th ball. But, In spite of the fact that we ware all dresaed just alike, shs early de tected the difference, and refused to dance with anybody but omcers. "Tromp" en cou raged ber in making this odious distinc tlnctioo. and. at last, with a subtle and ma llcious cunning v, blch I can not too strongly reprehend, persuaded ber to push ber ex cluslveness to tbe extent of dancing witb nobody but himsell. Fortunately tor the peace of the Pandora's ward room. Miss Peters had tbree or four dangerous rivals, who, if less wealthy, were far less proud and haughty, and if leas beautiful, were far sweeter and more charming. For my own part, I early concluded tbat I preferred the sweet and gentle pride of beauty to tbe proud and scornful, and inwardly decided that Miss Peters.was a spoiled, Ill-natured, dis agreeable young lady, and wlahed "Tromp" Joy of her, with all my heart, uer pride and arrogance may have been augmented by the circumstance that her uncle played tbe violin, and was tbe musician of tbe ball. It was be that directed tbe festivities, and. In truth, jie did It very well, playing waltz, or a polka, or a reel as we in turn demanded them, although be spoke only a word or two of English, which he had picked up. probably, from an occasional English whaler, or a still rarer Arctic ex plor ins ship. It must not b9 supposed, how ever, that "Tromp" was the only one who was susceptible to tbe charms of these fair one. Our navigating officer appeared to me to bejuit as bidly smitten, anddavoted himself to a vou no; lady with a very bleb topnot with an assiduity which, I am afraid, would have rendered some fair English lady highly indignant could she but have seen hiir. When the dance was over he went walklnz about the village with her on his arm, KM1LINO DOWN UPON HER . in a way which must have stirred her little heart up to its very depths; carrying on a conversation with signs, cods and winks, and from time to time making what, to a perfectly unprejudiced spectator, seemed to be idiotic gesticulations, intended, prob ably, as passing remarks about the weather It 6hould not be forgotten with regard to these Kirls that they are very well behaved. They allowed the men not even a kiss, nor a queezoof the hand, aDd knew as well how to maintain their dignity and keep neoole at a proper distance as do any other youux ladies. They are all good Christians and church-going people, belonging, as do all tbe Jisaulmaur oi ureemana. to some form of the Lutheran faith to which they have been converted by tbe mild and beneficent influence ot the kindly Danes. They have a neat little wooden church, where they have re1 I 1 . - 1 O.WAM A who Koea the rounds of a district and

appears regularly among them about once month, and they lead a quiet, innocent, virtuous and, to all appearances, a happy life in their little icebound world. The summer is probably tbo most lonesome time for them, as nearly all the men are away tben on tbe hunting and fishing grounds. We only saw five or aix about the village, and they, took no part In tbe festivities, ao that tbe girls look lor ships touching here a very rare occurrence aa the great event ot tbe summer. At length, about 12 o'clock, we saw tbe signal to come off , IXYIKO FEOM THE PAN BOB 48 MASTHBAD, and, after one more waltz, we took an a flee tlonate leave of our fair friends, thanking them as well as we could, for tbe very pleasant evening they bad given us. They accompanied ns down to the waterside some of us managing to Bteal a kiss on tbe way and

tben scrambled into the tolly boat while tbe girls stood on tbe shore in a groupwatcblng us wun naif smiling, half saddened face. As sie pushed off they setup a kind of hall laughing, half tearful cry, which followed os rar out into the bay. and came to ns over the widening water, softened Into a saddened strain, as sweet and musical aa the sis hin k oi an oitan carp, it was so sad withal tbat the dogs of the village, which bad like wise followed us down to tbe water'B edge to see ns on, joined in with a mourn rul now I, and made up a sorrowful chant tbat souuded strangely wfld and weird lu the dim myste rious iwuignc oi the Arctio summer night. It was a pretty and craceful farewell, and sdded one more kindly souvenir to our me moirs or Disco.
