Words mean very much or very lit- , tie, according to the u?e made ot them; j and according to the sp'rit and to the measure of nn-lersfcindiog in those who hear them. Words that aie employed ( vita reterensse id spirnum irutii? nave pre-eminently a Bnggrt-tive ratner than b definitive value. They, peculiarly, are liable to (treat misconception. Perhaps there is no word that has a wider range of values, according to the use made of it, than the word "faith." It runs from a dry and juiceless bundle of abstract statements to the life-giving and life enjoying act of connection with the personal Savior that secures rest in Him forever. In any discussion of the nature or the elements, or of the results of faith, it is all-important tbat it be understood on both sides of the discussion in what sense the term "faith'' is used.

Among \he pute Chinese, aad especially among the higher classes, a wedding is a long and serious affair. From the almost Turkish strictness with which females are secluded, it is comparatively rare that a couple see each other previous to betrothal and still more bo that there should bft any acquaintance between tLem. This has given rise to the necessary employment of a character equivalent to the bazvalan or marriage broker of ancient Brittany, to Mr. Foy's Parisian Matrimonial Agency office, or the daily marriage advertisements of onr own papers. If your wi^h is for marriage in the abstract, the broker will find you a fitting partner first, and negotiate the transfer after. If you are less purely philosophical, and wit-h to consult your own tastes as well as the interests and increase of the nation, you are only to name the party, and the broker becomes your accredited ambassador. There is, however, one preliminary point to be ascertained. Has your intended the same surname as yourself? If so, it is a faal difficulty, as the laws of China would not permit the marriage. If, however, she is Chun and you are Le, or she is Kwan or Yu, and you rejoice in any other patronymio monosyllable, the next step is for the broker to obtain from each a tablet containing the name, age, date ai.d hour of birth, etc. These are then taken to a diviner and comEared. to see if the union promises appiness; if the answer is lavorable (and crossing the palm with silver is found to be as effectual with fortunetellers in China as it is elsewhere), and *1 . a 1 :r ine gaies are equui, iuui 10 u iuc ?miuu and wealth of the two families are similar, the proposal ia made in due form. The wedding presents are then sent, and if accepted the young couple is considered as legally betrothed. A lucky day must next be fixed for the wedding, and here our friend the diviner is again called upon. Previous t > the great day the bridegroom gets a new hat and takes a new Dame, while the lady, whose hair has hitherto hung down to her heels in a tiagle heavy plait, at the same time becomes initiated into tho stylo of hair-dressing prevalent among Chinese married ladies, which consists in twistiDg the hair into the form of an exaggerated teapot and supporting it in that shape with a narrow plate of gold or jade over the forehead, and a whole system 01 bodkins behind i. On the wedding morning presents and congratulation are sent to the bridegroom, and amcng the rest a pair of penog; not 6ent as we might imagine by some wicked wag or irreclaimable bachelor, as a personal reflection on the intellectual state of his friend, but as an emblem of domestic unity and affection. The ladies, too, in China as well elsewhere, indulge in a lit'.lu fashionable crying on the occasion, and so the relatives of the bride spend the morning with her, weeping over her impending departure, or, more probably, their own epinsterhood. Thew do not. however, forget to bring some contributions for her trousseau. In the evening comes the bridegroom with a whole army of his friends, a procession of lanterns, a long red cloth or silk tapestry embroidered with a figure of the dragon borne on a pole between two men, and a large red sedan covered with carving and gilding, and perfectly close. In this the bride is packed up securely out of sight, and the whole procession, preceded by a band of music and tbe rtragon, and closintr with tbe bride's bandboxes, starts for home- On arrival *he is lifted over the threshold, on which a pan of charcoal is burning, probably to prevent her bringing any evil influence in with her. She then performs the kotou to her husband's father and mother, worships the <.nnnc.4i.nl ioVtlatc f\( VlOT VIOTO f'llTlilv ft)! Sii tcoi iai lUk/iuiu v* uv? - ? , offers prepared betel nut to the assembled guests. Up to this time she has been veiled, bat sbe now retires to her chamber, where she is urtveiled by her hnsband; she then returns, again performs obeisance to the assembled guests, and par takes of food in compauy with her husband; at this meal two cups of wine, one sweetened, the o her with bi ter herbs infused in it, are drank together by the newly married pair, to symbolize that henceforth they mnst share together He's sweets and bitters. The bride then retires escorted by the matrons present, some one of whom recites a charm over her, and irranges the marriage couch. The next morning the gods of the household and the hearth are worshiped, and the six following days are devoted to formal receptions at home of different members of the two families or - equally formal visits paid to the family of the bride. During the whole of this period she still travels in her red-and-gold sedan, and is still escorted by her band af music and dragon.? Temple Bar. A Mongolian Millionaire^ A correspondent writing from Evan# ton, U. T., says: Ah Say is a specimen, md a good one, of what a Chinaman can accomplish in this country, where prudence, ability and thrift are supplemented by a fair education. Ah Say is no mandarin of three, or even one button, in his native land. He is pwlf made, and has no reason to be ashamed of his handiwork. "When first he gazed on the land of gold (and Jim Kearnej) from the decks of an emi grant ship, Ah Say had as little worldly wealth and knowledge of the ways and wiles of the ''Melican man1' as any of his pauper compatriots. He began life in the iiotijI hnmhln awnrfttirma whifih flnr>nl" the wherewithal to keep the domestic chopsticks going. He had a faculty of shrewd observation, though, which soon I aught him that if he could apply hi* really comprehendve intellect to the solution of the qnestions in American life, and deduce a correct result from them in an American way, that his Chinese industry and economy would give him a start in life which his natural ability would successfully improve. Ah Say made a Napoleonio stroke?he Americanized himself instead of surrounding himself with a Chinese atmosphere in an Ameiican climate as is the fashion of the greater number of his conservative and, ergo, stupid countrymen. The opportunity came in the shape of the Union Pacific railroad. That company had need to employ thousands of coolie laborers in its construction. The management felt that it would be of infinite advantage to both parties to have in personal control of this large body of men some one man who was of their race, language and religion, and yet who was sufficiently enlightened, educated and liberal to act in concert with the interests and other cffiuers of the road. Where was such a rare com bination to be found? I am no firm believer in the "mute, inglorious Milton theory," and have noted that a place is always vacant for practical genius to earn its bread and meat. Ah Sty's light was under no bushel. He was chosen as superintendent at a yearly salary of 812,000 per annum. His star is at its zenith, and this American Chinaman Ciu safely draw his check for somo thing over 8250,000. He is not wholly American in domestic life. His house, a neat, substantial and unpretentious place, is Ametican enough outside, but when one enters into the atrium ho literally encounters the Lares et Peaates of a thorough Chinaman. Entering the door you are struck with what, in my ignorance, I supposed was a tolerable specimen of Chinese statuary placed upcn a kind of prie-dien, or small altar, I hardlv know which. This was, however, the Joss or domestic god of the proprietor. The furniture was by no means a disagreeable mixture of American and Chinese work, and was simple, but elegant in material and finish. Here All Say received us pleas antly and in fair English, rising as he did so from his desk, at which he had been working with his secretary, an American. Foi Mao, his wife, tat a little distance off in a rocking chair, BiDging a Chinese lallaby to one of her children. It was a pretty picture of domestio enjoyment.

The death of a relative, a domestio or publio incident of more than usual importance, was written on one of these Bcraps and placed chronologically on the wall, making it one vast sorap book. Ah Say, in person, is of medium stature, pleasant countenance and one indicative of real native energy and force : he is of middle age and a deliberate and unimpassioned talker.?Kansas City Times. THE FARM AND HOUSEHOLD. N ReseedlnK Grass Lands, A correspondent of the Neva Evgla d Farmer writes that "many old fields are of late years being reseeded by turning over after haying, harrowing down and having 6ome fertilizer, either barnyard, compost or chemical, applied to their surface and worked in, and a liberal j seeding of grass seed " And he might | have added that many fields are re| seeded by merely harrowing the stubble j immediately after the hay has been taken off, doing the work very thoroughly with a sharp toothed harrow, and then sowing the seeds for grass, harrowing lightly to cover them and following wit a roller to make all smooth. A top dressing of manure will help wonderfully. In this way the grass roots that are yet in the land are saved, as but a part will be destroyed in harrowing. Mr. Geddes mentions that this spring he has sown on a piece of land that whs mown last year, but not satisfactorily seeded, clover and timothy, and harrowed the ground to cover this j new seeding and help out the partial | catch of the old.?American Dairyman. Economy find Hob .Unnnaenicnl. It is evident that a change must soon take piace in tbe manner of keeping and feeding hogs in most parts of this country. In the New England and other Eastern States they were formerly fed on potatoes, apples and some corn and gram, and were kept in pen . In most of the Southern States they were allowed to range pretty much at will in forests and along the banks of streams, and mbsisted during the summer on grass. In the fall they ate mast, which is quite abundant in most places, while on the approach of cold weather they were allowed to devour grain in the neJds wnere ic grew, ana 10 narvesc corn in the manner common to Bwine. In the Western States hogs were kept almost entirely on corn, which was in many places so cheap that it hardly paid to send it to market. Sometimes they ate the corn in the fields, as they do in the Sonth, and in that way saved the trouble of harvesting. All admitted that it was a wasteful practice to allow hogs to go through fields of standing grain and corn, and to trample ioto the earth the portions they did not eat, but the low prices that ; then ruled justified tbe method, in ! few sections was the attempt made to keep hogs during the summer on green fcdder, or to hasten their maturity by high feeding. In the South, where pork is the principal meat consumed, little or no attempt was made to improve tbe breed of hogs. In many places hogs were allowed to live until they were three ot four years old, although they were no larger than animals half that age that were of improved breeds and were allowed all the fat-forming food they could consume. In truth but little attention was given to the matter of economy in swinebreeding and managemeit. Increased population and improved methods of transportation have given a higher value to the articles of food that hogs devoured than they ever had before. It is now necessary to praotice economy in breeding, keeping and feeding hogs in order to make much money out of it. In the first place it is necessary to keep those breeds 01 nogs that will mature early, for the shorter time reqnir< d to reach a given weight will result in a great saving of feed. Already much has been accomplished in improving swine in the matter of early maturity, but in many placeH there is still much to accomplish. Hogs are improved for less expense than other farm animals, as they breed very fast, and first class males are comparatively cheap. It is also necessary to give more attention to findiDg cheaper food for hogs. Admitting that it is necessary to employ corn and small grains for fattening, it should D9 ine oujeufc ui uwmo iuiooio iu cui^iujr as little of these articles as possible, and to resort to other and oheaper kinds of food for keeping hogs during the greater portion cf their lives. Since the advent of the Colorado beetle it has net been profitable to raise potatoes for feeding hogs. The labor of raising tbem has been too great, and their price has been higher than that of corn. There is, however, profit in raising artichokes. and their cultivation shonld be extended to every part of the country. Attention should also be given to raising sugar beets, carrots, squashes, pumpkins and sweet corn, to be fed with the stalks. All these materials are cheaply raised and promote the growth of the animals, if they are not prcductivo of much fat. Most cf them are also desirable articles to fe< d in connection with corn and small grains, as they furnish variety, keep up rii appetite, and improve the general condition of the animals. Mauy farmers seem to have forgotten that the hog is by nature a grazing animal. With a suitable pasture hogs ? ? ?

To provide against drought it is best to raise f>we6t earn or some other forage crop on knd adjacent to the pasture In case it is required it can be cut up and thrown over the ft nee. Recently some have favored beeping hogs in a large lot and raising all the green trod for them on the outside. They say that much more satisfactory results are obtained by this method of feeding. They raise red clover, orchard grass and sweet corn on land adjoining the lot, cut some i f it every diiy, and feed it to the hogs in the lot. They lecommended having a large place in the lot elevated so as to be quite dry, and having it covered with gravel, tanbark or coal ashes. On this they would place the feed for the hogs during wet weather. To prevent any of it from being wasted they would pitch it into feeding troughs made similar to those used for sheep. A roof is made to cover a part of the high ground to afford protection aeainst the rain and hot sun.?Ch'cago Times. Fnrin nnd Cinrilen Notes. Brewery refuse is valuable for milch cows only when fresh, as it affects the quality of the milk when sour. Permanent pastures should consist of mixed grasses in order to satisfy the dosires and peculiarities ot animals. A variety does much in the matter of promoting health and thrift. A correspondent of the Utica Herald, who claims one cause of foot-rot in cows to be wet and mud, recommends as a preventive plenty of lime at the entrance to the milking stables. A naturally moist soil, such as a drained swamp meadow with a mucky top soil, is the best land for pickles. Daily picking is desirable, as fcny that are left too long exhaust the vines. A French chemist reports that water made slightly salt, and to which, uhen boiling, bran in the proportion of one quart to every gallon has been added has been found in a series of experi inents to increase -the yield of milk twenty-five per cent., if given to the cows as their ordinary drink. Every farmer who ha3 to contend ' with stony land will thank us for saying that when the small stones are to be picked two men with dung forkw will do more work and do it easier than four w.th their hands. bee that your cattle and sheep and horses have plenty of salt to eat. No matter whether you like salt in your food or not, your stock will give you a vote of thanks for the little extra trouble and expense. It has been observed that when liquor manures are too much diluted trees are injured thereby on account of beiDg compelled, in seeking nourishment, to take up more water than is needed; bnt, I on the other hand, ioo strong solutions | ! cause a decay of the roots. It has been well demonstrated lhat in the oase of all live stock a clean and i open condition of the skin is conducive to health and economical feeding, and no labrr in the barns is more profitably expended than that whioh is employed in a thorough cleaning, not only of the horses but also of the cattle. Lambs should be dipped as soon as i weaned, not only in order to destroy all I vermin which disturb and injure the I growth of the Iamb, but to prevent th fly striking them in hot weather.

The Indians took all of the horseB, equipage and stores. They , were strongly fortified and completely ambushed the troops." I The President's Veto Mes*ag?>. Following is the full text of (he President's l message vetoing the river and harbor appropriation bill: To the House of Repreientntives: Havingwatched with much interest the progress of House bill No. 6,242, entitled "An Act making appropriations for the construction, repair and preservation of cortain works on rivere And harbors and for other, purposes," and having since it was received carefully examined it, after mature consideration I am constrained to return it herewith to the House of Representatives, in which it originated, without my signature and with my objections to its passage. Many of the appropriations in the bill are clearly for the general welfare and most beneficial in their character. Two of the objects for which provision is made were by me considered so important that I felt it my duty to direct them to the attention of Confess. In my annual message in December last I urged the vital importance of legislation for tho reclamation of the marches and for the establishment of the harbor lines along tho Potomac front. In April last, by special message, I recommended an appropriation for the improvement of the Mississippi river. It is not necessary that I say that when my signature would make the bill appropriating for these and other valuable national objocts a law, it is with great reluotance and onlv under a eenao ot duty that i withhold it. My principal objection to the bill is that it contains appropriations for purposes not for the common defense or general welfare, and which do not promote commerce among the Statec. These provisions on the contrary are entirely for the benefit of the particulai localities in wbioh it is proposed to make the improvements. I regard such appropriation of the public money as beyond the powers given by the Constitution to Congress , and tho Prefiident. I foel the more bonne] , to withhold my signature from tho bill because of the peculiar evils which manifestly reauli > from this infraction of the Constitution. Api propriations of thiB natnre to be devoted purely to local objects tend to increase in number and in amopnt. As the citizens of one 8tate find that money?to raise which they in common t with the whole country are taxed- is to be exI ponded for lo?al Improvements in another Stato, they demand similar benefits for themselves, 1 and it iB not unnatural that they should seek tc 1 indemnify themselves for such use of the public funds by securing appropriations for similar improvements in their owe neighborhood. Thus, as tho bill becomes more objectionable it secures more support. Thi? - result is invariable and necessarily follows a . neglect to observe the constitutional limitations imposed upon the law-making power. 1 The in propriations for rivor and harbor im" provementa have, under the influences of whicl . I have alluded, Increased year by year out ol proportion to the progress of the country, great as that has been. In 1870 the aggregate k appropriation was $3,975,900; la 1875, $6,648,, 517.50: in 1380, $8,976 500, and in 1881, $11, . 451.30C; while by the present aet there is &pproprii ted $18,743,875. 1 Whiie feeling every disposition to leave tc the legislature the responsibility of determining whit amount should be appropriated foi the pui-poses of the bill bo long as the appro ' priatiois are oonflned to objects indicated by i the gri nt of power, I cannot escape the conclusion that as a part of the law-making power ol the government the duty devolves upon mo te withhold my signature from the bill containing i appropriations which in my opinion greatly exceed in amount the needs of the country, fbi too priment nscai year, it being the utage tc provido money for these purposes by annual appropriation bills, the President is in effect directed to oxpend bo large an amount ol money within so brief a period that the expenditure cannot be made economically and ! advantageously. The extravagant expenditure of public i money is an eru not to be measured by the valfie of that meney to the people who art 1 taxed for it. They sustain a greater injury in the demoralizing effect produced upon thost wbo are intrusted with official duty through all the ramidcations of government.* These objections, could be removed and every constitutional purpose readily obtained should Congress entct that one-half only of the aggregate amount provided for in the bill be appropriated for expenditure during the fiscal year, and that the sum so appropriated be expended onlj for such objects named in the bill as the secretary of war under tho direction of the President shall determine, provided that in nc case shall tho expenditure for any one purpose ? I Mm 11m Yin or r? Micro of a/3 Kit Mm Kill fnr that purpose. ? feel authorized to m&Ke this suggestion because of the duty Imposed upoc ' the President by the Constitution to recom mem I the consideration of Congress sucl { meaaui e.< ns he shall judge necessary and ex, pedient, and because it is my earnest desire that the public works which * are in progress shall suffer nu injury. Congress will also couI veue again in four months, when this whole . subject will be open for their consideration. CuESTF.n A. ARTHUR. Execntire Mansion, August 1, 1832, 1 FORTY SEVENTH CONGRESS.

The Tronble in Egypt. An official from tho fmvflrnmont nf Arab'. Hey, dated Cairo, says : "The khedive having issued a decreo dismissing Arabi Pacha from tho ministry for neglecting to defend Alexandria, and having published a proclamation declaring that England is the friend ol Egypt, Arabi Pacha has called on the country, of which he is the submissive servant, to pro1 nounce its will in the matter. At a great meeting railed for Saturdav, comprising Ule mas?, Cadis, the Coptic patriarch, heads of the Armenian. Greek and Maronito committees, various high functionaries, mndirs, notable.-), and leading merchants, in all SG4 persons, moving speeches were delivered, especially by Ali l3ov, under eecretary to the Soudau, "who recouniod outrageo is assaults of English sailors upon Alexandrian women. The meeting, with only three dissentient", decided to maintain Arabi fo that he might defend the country until the conclusion of n satisfactory peace or the tot?l extermination of his forces. All decrees to the contrary were declared annulled, as tho khedive was beyond iho pale of Mussulman law. It was rosolved that the decision of the meeting bo submitted to the Porte. Cousins of i the khedive. who were present at the meetine. declated that l'ewfik would bo khodivoif fie tided wth the country and the army, bat that under the pieaent circumstances he*is either a prisoner cr a puppet of the British, and his authority might bo repudiated. Immense numbers of people paraded the streets last evening, shouting: ' Victory to friends of Egypt against aggressor.'.'" The departure of the Scots guards, 750 strong, for Egypt, caused much excitement in London. There wa-< a great crowd of people outside the barracks aQd the troops took their departure amid tremendous enthusiasm. The I Prince and Priucess of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of Connaughl, the Duke of Cambridge, > commander-in-chief of the forces, and the : Higbt Honorable Hugh 0. ChUders, secretary of state for war, went on & special steamer to ' meet t tie Orient as she left the dock. The ' crowd at the barracks was so dense that the leading files of the guards were liftsd off their > foot. 1 An Alexandria dispatch says: Midshipman De I PJiat* nf tho ironclad Alexandra, who was sent ? to Ramleh on Saturday morning on horseback ' with important dispatches containing Admiral 8eymoar's directions regarding the proposed reduction of the Abonkir forts, all indorsed by the kbedive, has been captured by Arabi and is now held as a prisoner. De Chair was pro1 yided by the khedive with a guard of natives as an escort The natives had all along been secretly loyal to Arabi, and when tuey got De Chair beyond the British outposts they 1 overpowered him, made him prisoner and con> ducted him into Arabi's camp at Katr-el-Dwar. There he was searched, his dispatches seized, 1 and he was placed under guard as a prisoner ' of war. Subsequently, word was sent to the ' British of what had boen done. The natives 1 are becoming very insolent toward the British, ' and whenever they meet small bodies of English troops they tannt them to fight Arabi is still parleying with the kheJ dive. The sultan haa intimated that no terms ' will be made except unconditional surrender. > A traveler who has juct arrived here from Siont ' reports that Arabi Pasha has issued a manifesto declaring that the Khedive Tewflk has sold Egypt to the British and had retired to England. Arabi therefore ordered the people to obey him until the Prophet has en1 lightened him to find & worthier khedivo.

The governor of the town of Minieb, 136 miles southwest of Cairo, endeavored to resist the f attempt of Arabi to interrupt railway commn' nication, but was sent to Cftiro and imprisoned > in the citadel. The railway trains in Egypt are searched and Christians are murdered. r The following is an account of how a British ? outpost at Alexandria was alarmed and put to L flight by a body of Arabs: It seems that there t is a clump of trees on tho Sweet Water canil, ' about in the center of tho British line o( outposts, which was guarded by a company of the 1 sixtieth Hides. An advanced picket, consisting of a corporal and six men, was duly posted there last evening, and cau1 tloned by Major-Geueral Alison as to > the necessity ot maintaining absolute steadi' ness, and were ordered, in the event of an at > tactt in iorce, to xaii d&ck in oraer on a Darn1 caded houso by the side of the canal. These Instructions were apparently fully understood, and the general left satisfied. At about 2 o'olock in the morning the enemy suddenly appeared ' on the left of the British outposts with infintry and cavalry. They had approached very rapid. ' ly and unobserved, and, before the British had time to check their advance, they charged the clump of trees at a great pace. The Rifles 1 fired a single volley and then broke and ran > along tbo bank of the canal. The outlook 1 would eeem to have been very defective, and. worse sti 1, the retreating trnope neglected all ' the ordors concerning a rallying point,and never 1 stopped until they bad reached the fortified water works liill, abont a milo distant. Four 1 of them even ran until they rcached the camp, where they spread all sorts of lidiculoua 1 rumors, such as that they had lost all their 1 comrades and had last Been Major Ward surrounded by the enemy. A company instantly ' moved forward to the bank of the canal. The enemy had apparently not followed the fugitives far, bu. had taken the rifles they had thrown away in their flight and secured their reserve of ammunition. The conduct of the Rifles created a terribly indignant feeling throughout the British camp. The position they abandoned has been reoccupied, and the men composing the fugitive picket have been piaceu UDaer arrt'oi. n. uariuiuija uemuutsbra- , tion wa8 made against an exactly similar poai- j tion on the prerioas night. Arab! Hey. Arabi Pa9ba, or Ourabi-Bey, aa tho ! Arabs call him, is the son of a promi- i nent personage in the province of Cbar| kirch, in Lower Egypt, and id about i forty-five years old. He received an > excellent education in a military Bchool. 1 He early imbibed progressive ideas, ; which he has never failed to l propagate among his country- j ; men. After leaving the mili- , tary school he entered the army and re* mained for some time in the ranks. Although Ismail Pasha patronized him I he did not advance above tho rank fof; major under that ruler. On three dif- I ferent occasions be endeavored to obtain ' the rank of bey or colonel, but Ismail \ replied to the person advocating his i canse: "If 1 create him a colonel, he ! will create a revolt in the regiment under his command in less than fix ; months." The truth of Ismail's ; words was soon made apparent to i his son and successor, Tewfik, who 1 shortly after his accession gazetted ! Arabi a colonel. Prior to the 2d of February, 1881, the date of tbe military i troubles which resulted in the present! conflict, ho commaaded the Fourth j regiment of the infantry guard. That | Arabi is a man of great determination is evinced by what he has accomplished i ever since the begiuning of the year, j Then hd wa3 considered to he the most I important factor in Egypt, but not even his warmest, partisans would have proph- i i esied that in a few months he would ! venture to defy openly the whole ' of Europe and carry on his work of disorganization under the very guns of a hostile fleet, especially dispatched for the purpose of overawing him. Not a . little o! his power is due to his oratorical ability. He is a scholar und is \ learned in tho arts of war. He is loved | by his soldiers as a bold and fearless I leader, and has the good will of the ( Moslem priesthood, which accounts for the sultan's hesitancy to take active ' measures against him, even if he be inclined so to do Expensive.
