They are Jolly ?!!<1 Gootl-Xatare'l, and Dress in Evquisite T:i>te. According to the idea of things which ! prevailed not so very long ago. the wo- | man who did not marry was a blighted being. It diil not matter whether she remained single from choi-o or necessity: for since it was considered a woman's only manifest and unalterable destiny to marry, she mxivt of course, be regarded as a failure in life if she did not do this. And though she may have refused forty offers of ma Tiage. or have had the most imperative duties oi :uiy sort, or developed the most decided lr.1 em for some vocation in life other than j marriage yet neither one nor ail of these ; would have been accepted as a valid [ reason why she should r.ot follow what ' society had decided was the only proper [ course in life for her. From tiiis condition c" things there j arose in literature and minds of the peo- ! pie in general the typical '-old maid." ; She was always pictured as gaunt, j angular, and forbidding in appearance: morose and ill-tempered in disposition, as became a blighted and disappointed being; hating youth and pleasure of all sorts, with a special grudge against iovemaking and lovers, since they reminded her of her own vanished youth and the opportunities which she never had, or. having, had neglected. But wc have changed all that in these later days. With the education of woi men and the broadening of their opporj amities in every way their destinies have broadened also. A woman is still, perhaps, expected iirst to marry, and it is ! best for her that she should, provided I iier marriage can Ue a nappy ana suuable one. Hut if from her own choice, or a necessity arising from a lack of appreciation on the part of the other and more stupid sex, she remains at the end of her days what someone calls an "unclaimed blessing." she is no longer considered, from this circumstance alone, a failure and an unhappy creature. She is 110 longer doomed to a life of dependence in the house of another, for a score of vocations are open to her, in uiiV one of which she may win a livelihood or even competence. Consequently she commands respect, and, far from being a subject of contempt or pity, she is more likely the, object ci' open or secret envy 011 the part of most of her married acquaintances. And so it has come about that the typical old maid of former times has passed away, and in the literature of today we lind new types conforming to the new facts of the case and quite different from the old. The modern old maid is not angular aud forbidding in appearance, but plump and pleasing. She is not morose and ill-tempered, but jolly and good-natured to an extent that ni-tU-n* hnr the best of comi) .av. As she has ncyer had the absorbing cares j lhat come with marriage, and has no j family of sons and daughters growing j up about her to remind her of the flight; j of years, she has naturally forgotten to i grow old, and young people regard her j as one ot themselves when good times j are being planned; while in the matter of lovers and love making she has had that experience which makes her simply invaluable as confidante and adviser, and she is the repository of all the secrets of this sort which exist within the range of her acquaitance. She dresses in exquisite taste, she pets a pug dog or a white cat, a golden beetle, 6r whatever animal tashiou may dictate; is idolized by her family; especially her young nephews; has hosts of admirers, but is discretion and propriety personified; is the guiding spirit in orphan asylums, hospitii fairs, associated charity matters, and other good works, and. in short, lives out to the end of her I days a happy, useful, well-rounded ex! isteneo.?Milwaukee Telegraph. I m-Tw", ttrxir>tr t'nrnv r\ i vc i il ill ? Wi' i^.'V JL o. As has been resru ked by the commentators, and as is apparent to careful readers, it would seem that some notion c; the week of seven days was car rent among the people whose history is recorded m very early timf-s, that is to say, at a date long preceding Moses or any oi the books written by him. The proof of this is to be found in such passages as tiic following: Genesis, xx'ix.. 27, where Jacob is desired by La baa to "fulfill her week," that is Leah's week, in order that he might also receive Rachel. The week appears to express the time given up to nuptial festivities. So afterward in Judges, xiv., where Samson speaks of "the seven days of the feast." So also on the occasion of the death of Jacob, Joseph "made a mourning for his father seven days." (Genesis, I., 10.) Bui; "neither of these instances, any more than Noah's procedure in the ark. go further than showing the custom of observing a term of seven days for any observance of importance."

When, tberefore, the children of Israer went down to Egypt for what proved lo bo a very long sojourn in that country tiiey possibly were familiar 'with the practice of dividing time by weeks, and at all events the notion of seven days as a convenient portion of time for the affairs of life would not seem altogether strange to them. It is exceedingly probable that on arriving in Egypt they found the week established by the practice of the country. It will be observed that it was in Egypt that Joseph mourned seven days for Jacob; and it is possible, though there seems to be no necessity to assume the fact, that in so doing he was conforming to the custom of the country, as he did with regard to the embalming and chesting of his father's rotniinc Rut" in/lf>nprwlf>nt]'C nf im such consideration, it would seem highly probable that the Israelties found themselves in Egypt among a people who divided the time by weeks of seven days. We know that they did so at a later period; why might they not have commenced as early as before the sojourn of the Israelites? The Egyptians were, in fact, a people very likely to be advanced in such u. matter as this; order and government, both ecclesiastical and civil, were undoubtedly in a remarkable state of perfection at the time to which reference is now made, and it would seem much more probable than otherwise that so convenient an institution as the subdivision of the month into short periods bnd already been established. It may be noted with reference to the number seven and its recognition in some form or another as a special number among the Egyptians, that we have incidental evidence in the dream of Pharaoh; the spnciai form of the dream, as presenting s-jven fat and seven lean kinc, may be supposed to have been connectc1 with some familiarity in Pharaoh's n.:nd with the nuni- < ber seven during h s waking hours. < And as regards the Israelites, it may be : observed that the period of seven clays j is introduced into the most solemn < event of Ibeir Egyptian sojourn, name- i ly, the ordinance of the Passover. 2 "Seven days snail yc eat unleavened ; bread; even the first day yc shall put < away leaven out of year houses; for t whosoever esteth leaven bread from the t first until the seventh day, that soul i shall be cut off from Israel."?Hie \ Bishop of Carlisle, in the Contemporary \ Review. < inji ?

HISTORY OF THE BUSTLE. ] The Impetus Which Has Borne It Throagfc j Successive Stages of Growth. Now, we don't mean the great busi- j ne.-s bustle which belongs to the early ; fall and winter trade, nor the great ! bcsile of the humminsr and whirling ; marts of manufacturing energy. We j mean the great bustle of modern fash ion. Nothing has outstripped the bustle in its gig-n tic stride tor prodigious excellence. It is paradoxical that this "outward form" of fashion, which has never been literally in front, has still left all modistic rivals behind. We can recall when this startlingly reproductive fruit received the distinct impetus which has borne it through successive stages to the present extraordinary condition of development. The busiie got a wondrous impetus from an accident and alarm of the war. We have intently observed its onward march toward immensity for more than twenty years; and, now that it has grown large enough to comprehend this commentary, we pay to its historic origin our respectful compliments. The bustle of the war period in the south was cut crescent-shaped,, was hand-sewed, and was then padded through an open end with cotton or sawdust It was a modest, unobtrusive bustle in its manners and when properly adjusted was quite invisible to the wearer and nearly so to the world. Like certain lunar eclipses, it could be viewed only from a very limited area. When Sherman's Christian battalions were beaten through the backways of Georgia and the Carolinas it was deemed, for prudential reasons, best to deposit domestic treasure, such as money and valuables, whore they would not confront these patriots. It was not at first suspected thaWhe soldiers would appropriate these effects, but it was feared that the gilt bric-a-brac, and brooch, and bracelet jewelry mhjht attract their admiration and impede their march by tempting them to stop and examine the precious wares. When brought into full relief by powerful lield lenses it was at last seen that bnermau s unrisuau uuaaiiuus ncic a.u army of incontinent kleptomaniacs, and'that new ingenuities would be in constant need to escape their keen and acuto methods of detecting the secret places of hidden treasures. Hiding placcs wero numerous in truth, but their instincts for stealage were quite as diverse and quite as many. At this crisis the bustle played a historic part. It became a safe-despodt for imperiled jewelry possessions. Both cotton and sawdust bustles were now brought into a new use. They were ripped and rid of their waste, and theft were rewadded, but this time with small wares and valued gems. Two abnormal cffects followed, the first being a disturbance of the symmetry and gravity of the former bustle, the second being a marked increase in its proportions. This made it the more observable, and this, too, led to its eventual detection by certian of the soldiers. which discovery culminated in the theft of many bustles,^together Jwith their precious and highly-prized con- j tents. What was next to do? Shrewd and resourceful maidens scon fell upon another device. There was continual peril of loss while the bustles were worn in their allotted places upon the person, but there was hope of escape for them if they could be successfully j concealed elsewhere. But where, oh ! where? In the house? No! for Sherman entered with lurid fagots. In the woods? No! for his marauders roosted I upon the boughs. So the noble women resolved to bury their trinkets in the fields. The broad acres thus became the depository of their charms and treasures and the earth covered up their?bustles. S;?e yonder dune where the tasseled stalk is nodding to the breeze and you could hear the rustle of the corn-blade? Well, once you could hear the rustle of the bustle. See those tiny hills whence the hopeful germ of the happy potato is looking toward the sun? Well, those little hills were once sown broadcast with those beautiful suggestions of dromedarial architecture known in the parlance of worldly fashion as?bustles. What bccame of them? We can not answer for them all. Nor can we repress the thought that had they all taken root and ripened and risen in luxuriant loveliness what a 1 - r I J T _ ? i.L. 1JJ 1 a invest 01 dusucs mere wouiu nave have been! But, like other tender and precarious vegetation, bustles bad to take their chances?and more, too. Some of them, as before, fell to the cupidity of Sherman's Christian soldiers, who relentlessly uprooted them; other, after the passage of military peril, were resurrected to be transplanted elsewhere, and others still, being unmarked, were never found by those who had hastily and hopefully entombed them. But a great an unexpected day had dawned for bustles. Of the number that were left in the earth a vast proportion of those wnich had been filled with sawdust in Line took root, and exuberantly blossomed and flourished. Those which had contained cotton, however, went generally to seed. We would say here that from this startling botanic phenomenon and the impressive date and situation we have been enabled to locate unmistakably the rise and progress of the American Dustie; ana wo oeen convinced, 100, that nothing short of the most pertinacious and painstaking care and watchfulness could have brought this indispensable appurtenance of modern female beauty to its present extraordinary size, vigor, and variety. We have not space to fully present our deductions from the important circumstances that surround the bustle or from the beautiful physiological female creations that stand" immediately in front of it. We can not contrast the early and almost unnoticeable product we "saw planted in the past with the prodigious and illimitable fruit of our days without the encroachment of wonder upon cur thoughts and sublime and poetic tendency toward blank verse. If we view the matter in a practical and dispassionate vein, we are forced to the conviction t at bustles make a better croo for uroS table or ornamental farming than breadstulfs. We believe : there .is'no known abridgement to its 1 dimensions, and that faithful and as- ; siduous tillage will produce bustles of < good quality quite as large at least as ; hot air balloons. There must be more i money in a crop of bustles of this size < than in several bales of cotton. ( When the bustle has been developed j to its probable limit we think the lady { who wears one will escape recognition 1 if not, indeed, observation. On' a re- 1 Dent visit to Augusta our attention was jailed to a bustle of the "pneumatic" species. This is a graft of the bulb va- i :iety. and is tilled with atmospheric oxy- t jen. It was propelling a young lady be- c :ore it much as a perambulator is engi- 1 acercd by a nurse. The bustle was the 1 idruiraticn of one of the main thor)ughfares of Augusta. The lady turned 0 gaze upon the elegant stationary in e :he Chronicle windows. Being then on J 1 profile the effect was at its best She p vore a terra cotta chimney of hat and i vith the prolongation of her body a growing out of the new "pneumatic" - ) us tie resembled very closely a rural r.mmer cottage with a stove flue fixed it one end. ~Modisticiar has indeed 0 reached ciosexj op. anatomical perfec- a; ion when an exquisite female form ?: :in be made to counterfeit a farm * 7' sbanty with a ventilating shait at the gable. The department of agriculture will confer a national blessing by distribut- j ing the seed of this bustle free. We ; should like to alternate the pneumatic ' variety of adjustable bustle with Ber- j muda grass or Bermuda onions.? : Greensboro (Ga.) Home Journal. Tobacco-Growinir in England. In reply to an inquiry as to the result | of his experiment In tobacco-growing, j r.nr.l Worric Trvif'tn cr frvmi Hunt in rrfit^lu. I Favers ham, says: "My experiment has been so far less elaborate than Mr. De , Laune's that an account of it would | lack the interest raised, ami justly so, j in his attempt to prove the feasibility \ of growing and drying tobacco in En- j gland. I planted about ten rods i a garden at Belmont with two sorts (the ! broad leaf and loog leaf), but the inter- j vals?two feet by three feet?were not sufficient to allow of passage between the plants when in full growth, and consequently many suckers which should bave been nipped out on ap- | pearance, shot up and robbed the leaves j that formed the crop. They also knocked each other about a good deal in mgn winas." .me i.anu was uol mauured, but it is good land, and the plantation grew so vigorously as to resemble a tropical jungle. 1 cut very late in September, after there had been two or three slight frosJ?, but the plants seemed in no way affected. In harvesting I strictly followed printed instructions and split the stems from the top to within a few inches of the base. The crop cut was made an incii or two lower, and the plants straddled over laths, which were removed by the wagon-load to a green-house and rested on a temporary structure. We found the stem of the long-leaved variety far more woody than that of the broadleaved. My intention had been to produce the yellow or golden-colored tobacco, but I found I could not get the house above 110 degrees in the middle of the day, so I had to be contented with gradual drying, resulting only in a brown tobacco, i nave nati no one in the trade down as yet to see my crop, so it is impossible for me to say whether my experiment has been so successful as Mr. De Laune's, but to my inexperienced eye there is little difference as to appearance and texture between the two crops. I should imagine that it is impossible as yet to draw any comparison between our samples and any imported, say American tobacco, because it is evident that the latter, whatever the process of packing may be, must undergo some pressure, whereby fermentation is set up, and I am inclined to think that it has been the omission of this last process which has induced poople who have surreptitiously smoked English-grown tobacco to dsciare that it was flavorless." Lord Harris adds that no difficulties whatever have been thrown in the way by the excise officers. London Times. Parlors That Cr sh Out Home Life. Did you ever hear of tyrannical parlors? The costly carpets and curtains, the expensive ornaments, give a subdued tone to the room destructive to real hospitality and good times. A neighborhood social met from house to house. One of the members was a bright boy; his mother had one of those tyrannical parlors, given up to formality and short calls. The bright boy said at one oi the meetings: "I would like co in<\te you to my house, but we never have good times in our stuck-up drawingroom.1' The little fellow felt the difference between his own home surroundings and that of some others of the soAf Ann Vi/-\ncrt fliA YrrTCf* *10 VJiCti L'iUU* wu^/ Uv/Ugv L.iv II wv cnts made the parlor so attractive that the boys and girls of the family said they "would rather be at home than anywhere else." The carpet was not too nice to dance on or even to play blind man's buff. The chairs and tables were not heavy and cumbersome, but were light enough to be tucked away, leaving a clear space. The children were encouraged to get up charades and tableaux. A magic lantern exhibition added variety, and now and then a card party. "But that was very wrong," says one steru parent No! Father and mother took a hand in the game and there was not so much danger the. children would seek questionable pleasures in unprofitable places. A Question of SpeecL. Jabe Mathis, of the Thirteenth Georgia, was a good soldier, but one day, when the Confederates were retreating from the gory field of Gettysburg, Jabe threw his" musket on the ground, seated himself by the roadside, and exclaimed with much vehemence: Till T. _ J 1 J T U_ i ii uo uasueu. Ji x wais. uuoiii-ir giep: I'm broke down! I can't do it!" And Jabe was the picture of despair. "Git up, man!"' exclaimed his captain, "don't you know the Yankees are following us? They'll git you, sure!" "Can't help it," said Jabe, "I'm done for: I'll not walk another step!" The Confederates passed along over the crest of a hill and lost sight of poor, dejccted Jabe. In a moment there was a fresh rattle of musketry and a renewed crash of sheUs. Suddenly Jabe appeared on the crest of the hill moving like a hurricane and followed by a cloud of dust As he dashed past his captain that officer yelled: "Hello, Jabe; thought you wasn't going to walk any more?" "Thunder," replied Jabe, as he hit the dust with renewed vigor; "you don't call this walking, do you?"?Savannnh News. "O i m How Germany Treats Spies. i lie raris Maun gives its readers the following information respecting the treatment to which persons arrested as spies are subjected in Germany: "Some five or six years ago a Belgian subject was arrested in Germany on suspicion of being a spy in the pay of the French government. No trustworthy evidence against him was forthcoming, and :ne charge was sustaiucd merely by the testimony of an entirely irresponsible individual. Nevertheless, the accused was condemned to ten years' imprisonment, after having already suffered eight months' confinement on suspicion. He has since been to all intents and purposes as one dead to his family. It has only been with the greatest difficulty that he has succeeded in obtaining permission from the authorities to write a few lines every quarter.
