Spain ? Agricultural Machinery ?
Str&wberrios?The Women's Building
and What it Contains?What
Women Have Done?Advertising.
Spain has a large display, in Agricultural
hall, of tobacco in various forms,
cigars, wool, leather, hemp, flax, cotton,
sugars, rice in all conditions, wines?
some 15) years old?brandies, gin, cordials,
cocoa, olives, table oils, gums,
resinous products, chocolate, coffee, a
g'Njdly portion being from Havana, and
the Pliillippiue islands. Her agricultures,
as here represented, cannot be
compared favorably with England or
France, and in agricultnral machinery
the United States takes the lead, especially
in reapers, headers, mowers, seeders,
rakes, plows, cultivators, etc.
Twice a week?Wednesday apd Saturday?there
has been a display of strawberries
in this hall?some twenty varieties?chief
of which were Albany seed
ling, four aud three-quarter inches in
circumference, Monarch of the West,
five and three-qnarter inches do., Boyden,
Dr. Warden and Jucunda. But I
design to devote this letter mainly to
the Women's building, designed to show
what women have done, what they can
do, and to suggest new fields of labor,
in which they can support themselves
honorably, And as this is a matter that
affects personally so deeply half the race,
I shall try and give my readers a general
idea of the character of the exhibition
in the women's department. In
section A are very superior wood carvings,
from the Cincinnati school of design,
paintings upon china and slate,
printed tiles, decorated pottery, inlaid
work for tables, designs for carpets, ribbons,
laces, prints, wall papers and decorations
of all kinds?opening new fields
of labor?most of which can be done at
their homes, without exposure to the
outer world. The pictures, too, compare
favorably with those in the Art gallery,
as also do the crayons, water color
drawings, statuary, etc.
In section B. are the looms ou which
aie made cotton goods, carpets, plain
and Jaequard loom ribbons, neckties,
book marks, and sashes, on which are a
beautiful design of the Women's building.
Here too is the printing press
upon which is printed the New Century,
all the work of which, editing, type setting,
etc., is done by women. The Baxter
steam engine, which moves all the
machinery, is run by Miss Emma Alison,
a practical engineer and a refined
aud educated lady. Then we find wax
work?very fine specimens of all kinds
- flowers,'fruits, autumn leaves, etc.,
etc., hair jewelry, paper flowers, spatter
work, staffed birds, worsted work in
fruit and flowers, Palmetto work from
tlie Skratn, Indian wora Dy a squaw,
paper cuttings, etc., all done by women
who support themselves, and, in many
cases, their families by this kind of
work.
Across the hall, in section D., are the
patents invented by women?some seventy-five
or eighty?of which I name
the life saving mattress, the invalid's
table, table for garden parties, the meat
tenderer, the Woodbury broiler, the
looked barrel oover, lock for trunks and
bureaus, shutter fastener, cribbage
board, griddle greaser, two dish washers,
dish drainer, pot 6craper, washing machine,
blanket washer, mangle, curtain
stretcher, springs for holding mattress
without slats, mosquito net holder,
combined table, washstand and bureau,
systems for cutting dresses and shirts
innumerable, baby jumper, spring saddle,
awning for screening horses from
the sun, invention for using the hand
instead of the feet in running sewing
machines?simple, inexpensive, health
saving, and can be applied to any sewing
machine?self-draining flower stand,
thread and needle bank, models for
teaching drawing from objects, stove
and attachments for roasting and broiling,
lunch heater, parlor cook stoves,
under garments for ladies and children,
patent darner, bath chair for invalids,
parlor easel (revolving) for holding the
artist's work, work tables, inkstand, and
a wonderfully beautiful and useful combination
desk, which has been adopted
by the governmenf officers. I have
catalogued enough to show the inventive
skill of women, and to modifv essen
. tially my first impressions derived from
a hasty inspection of the women's department.
For most of those inventions
are designed for common use in the
daily duties of every day life.
In embroidery and needle work the
most remarkable are the likenesses of
the royal family of England, and of John
Bright and Gladstone, done in sewing
silk, bat having the appearance of fine
engravings. Two other fine samples
of this style of work is the Beloit
(Wis.) college seal, and the United
States seal, by a lady of Albany. Then
there are a great variety of rags and
pictures in worsted, knitting and crocheting
; linen, cambric and muslin embroidery,
embroidered covers for tables,
pianos, chairs, foot rests, cushions,
etc. I despair of doing justice to the
exquisitely fine and beautiful laces of
every kind, antique and modern. Quite
remarkable are the cobweb laoes of the
women of Fayal, one of the Azore
islands?who excel in the fine quality of
their work. It seems hardly possible
that they can make so fine a fabric into
shawls. Here are also very fine laces
and Shetland shawls from Scotland.
From the school of art in England we
have embroidering on linen, silk, velvet,
and transfer work, applique in all its
forms, modern and antique. The foreign
exhibits, comprising articles of every description
; needle work from the Philippine
islands, pressed flowers from Norway,
embroidered napkins, table covers
and curtain material?for which there is
great demand?from Sweden, are all exceedingly
beautiful. So are the Japanese
exhibits from their oddity and exquisite
workmanship. But I cannot do
justioe to the foreign exhibit in this
letter.
I designed simply to give a pen portrait
of the articles in the women's department,
showing what has been, and
may be done by the women of this
Annnfi>ir Tn -inflfr.ifw T fjVinnld aIrd stftfcfi.
that it was at a late day, and after they
had contributed largely to the general
Exposition, that the women conceived
the idea of having a separate department.
80 that this is not a fair exhibit
of what they have done or might have
done. But enough has been done in
this department to show their capacity,
and to open the eyes of donbters and
unbelievers to a new revelation.
Woman's improvement is the world's advancement,
woman's success is the
world's gain, and when women can
stand on a platform of equal opportunities
with m8n in all the avocations oi
life, for which their tastes, habits and
qualifications fit them, the greatest reform
of the centuries will be accomplished.
The exhibitors in this Exposition?all
anxious to make their wares known tc
the public?patronize circulars and the
thousand and one dead head schemes foi
getting something for nothing. 01
course, a large part of this money is
wasted. Now if these exhibitors would
remember that people who buy theii
goods always read the livo newspapers,
while circulars and free publications arc
generally thrown into the waste basket,
without being read, they would make
known their business through the newspapers,
and i.eap the reward they deserve.

The Yeddas of India.
Of the Ved las, the strange raco which
inhabits the interior of Ceylon, very
much has been written and discussed of
T' 4 1?1-1- iL.i 41
Jate. It seems not impruuauic mat mrj
represent the aborigines of Hindostan,
or at least the savage people whom the
Aryan Hindoos found when, in some far
remote age, they invaded the peninsula.
It was, very likely, of the Veddas that
Bishop Heber was thinking when ho
spoke so op robriously of the denizens
of Ceylon. Certain it is that they approach
more nearly to the "missing link"
between man and the monkey than any
race hitherto discovered. When tho
Prince of Wales recently visited Kandy,
a number of these savages were brought
from the interior for his inspection. It
is said that they appeared veritable wild
men and women of the jungle, and that
even the Cingalese gazed upon them in
mute astonishment. "Miserable skeletons,"
says one who saw them, "with
long matted hair, great, rolling eyes, almost
naked bodies, grasping their bows
and arrows and looking round nervously
as though they would dart away, these
Veddas crouched together and glared
like wild beasts." Each girl had twenty
or thirty silver rings on her fingers, and
there were also largo rings on her ankles
and arms. The Veddas feed for the most
part on plan thin, cocoannts and roasted
monkeys and lizards ; their oue accomplishment
seems to be skill with the
bow. Their marriage customs are as
simple as their mode of life is savage.
The young Vedda swain, when he has
met his "fate," is not constrained to go
through a suspensive period of courtship,
or harrass himself with long drawn
doubts. Ha easily wins the maiden's
consent, and in order to conclude the
pact with her not very obdurate parents,
and conciliate their good will, he merely
presents i;he girl with a piece of cloth.
This presentation, indeed, is the marriage
oeremony itself. By the mere act
of delivering the homely gift, the couple
become man and wife, and proceed
? as fUn i?othnr mnn.
fcU KUUU UUl.OCIiCW'yuj^ no i?uu utvtr
ger Vedda civilization affords. It is said
their huts are built in an hour, and that
their cooking utensils are mainly constructed
of the leaves of trees. A recent
traveler asserted that one remarkable
trait of the Veddas is, that though they
weep freelj, and on small provocation,
they are never seen to smile; but, unfortunately
for this striking ethnological
discovery, the Veddas who were produced
for the English prince's inspection
laughed heartily more than onco ;
though their laughter rather resembled
the chattering of apes than the hilarity
of mortals. The Vedda, indeed, lives
as freely in the open air as does the monkey,
sleeps in the branches of the trees,
and lives by hunting. His most conspicuous
virtues are, an absence from
vindictiveDess and his scrupulous fidelity
to his f emale partner. Keligion he
has none, except it be called a religion
to believe in a not very bad natured
devil.
Thoughts for Saturday Night,
In this simple fact, that we cannot
accurately foresee the future, lies a
refuge from despair.
Pride is an extravagant opinion of our
own worthiness; vanity is an inordinate
desire that others should share that
opinion.
If there be any good in thee, believe
that there is much more in others. It
hurteth the most of all to prefer thyself
even to one.

! more express the myriad modes of mutual
attraction, than the word thought
can inform you of what is passing in
your neighbor's mind.
It is not in the words that others say
to us, but in those other words which
these make us say to ourselves, that we
find our gravest lessons and our sharpest
rebukes.
A virtue foroed upon men, or inborn
and immovable, would bring little nobleness
or happiness compared with a virtue
resulting from intellectual and spiritual
effort and power.
Every man takes care that his neigh-1
bor shall not cheat him. But a day
comes when he begins to care that he do
not cheat his neighbor. Then all goes
well. He has changed his market cart
into a chariot of the sun.
It is the common opinion that the
chief a state must be distinguished
I above the rest of the citizens by greater
magnificenoe and luxury, by sleeping
more and working less; but, on the contrary,
he should surpass them in foresight
and diligence.
Not in e wh shell the diver brings to air.

Mangled and torn and bruised, well nigh to
death,
The wounded oyster draws its laboring breath.
Oh! tried and suffer^ig soul! gauge here

The pearl of patience is the fruit of pain.
He is good that does good to others.
If he suffers for the good he does, he is
better still; and if he suffers from them
to whom he did good, he is arrived at
that height of goodness that nothing but
an increr.se of his sufferings can add to
it; if it proves his death, his virtue is
at its summit, it is heroism complete.

1 Parisian Trick.
The latest Parisian swindle is clever.
A well dressed woman called on a prominent
mental physician and implored his
aid in curing her son, who was laboring
under the delusion that some one owed
him 30,000 francs for diamonds which
he had sold. "Bring him here in an
hour, and I will see him alone," said the
doctor. The woman went at once to one
of the best jewelers and choosing 30,000
francs worth of diamonds, asked the
i proprietor to send his assistant with
them to Dr. J.'s, who was her husband
and would pay for them. The name
was well known, and the clerk was sent
| to the doctor's with her. In the antej
room she said: "I will see if my husband
is at home." She then told the
doctor that her son was without, and the
doctor said: " Send him in here." So
! she sent the clerk, telling him to leave
! the diamonds with her. Arrived in the
! doctor's room, the clerk was politely
' seated and courteously asked after his
1 general health and habits. After replyi
ing to these questions for some time,
the young man hinted that he was rath
er pressed for time, and would be glad
if the doctor would kindly pay him for
the diamonds. "Ah, true," said the
doctor, " the 30,000 francs. Well, byeand-bje."
Then ensued a funny scene,
M which finally euded iu both parties go'
ing in search of the "mother," and tind!
j rng that she had got tired of waiting
' and had gone, forgetting to leave the diamonds.

FORTY-FOURTH CONGRESS.
The Business of General Interest Transacted.
SENATE.
Mr. Sherman submitted an amoudment providing
that the trade dollar shall not hereafter
be a legal tender, and authorizing the secretary
of the treasury to limit the coinage thereof
to such amount as be may deem sufficient
to meet the export demand for the same. The
amendment was agreed to, and the resolution
then passed.
The Senate proceeded to vote on motion of
Mr. Ingalle to lay aside the Indian Appropriation
bill and take up the House bill reported
by the committee on Indian affairs to transfer
the Indian bureau to the War department, and
it was agreed to?yeas, 20; nays, 17.
On motion of Mr. Windom the vote by which
the Indian Appropriation bill was laid aside
was reconsidered. After various motions the
section proposing the transfer of tho Indian
bureau was stricken ont of the bill by 24 to 22.
The Senate resumed the consideration of the
Naval Appropriation bill. Mr. Sargent (Rep.),
of Calif orbiaj said the amount of estimates for
the navy submitted for the next fiscal year was
$20,871,666.40. The amount appropriated for
the present fiscal year was $17,011,806.90.
The bill now before the Senate, as reported by
the committee on appropriations, proposed to
appropriate $16,119,290.40, being an increase
on the House bill of $3,685,000, and a decrease
as compared with the appropriation bill of the
present fiscal year of $892,016.50.
The amendments proposed by the committee
on appropriations were agreed to as follows:
Inoreasirg the appropriation for pay of officers,
seamen, etc., from $5,750,000 to $7,200,000;
increasing that for the civil establishment at
the several navy yards from $85,000 to $100,000,
and that for local pilotage from $45,000 to
*58,000.
The amendment increasing the appropriation
for equipment of vessels from $970,000 to
$1,250,000 was passed. The amendment increasing
the appropriation for the bureau of
yards and docks from $440,000 to $760,000 was
rejected.
The next amendment of the committee was
to increase the appropriation for the bureau of
construction and repairs from $1,500,000 to
*2,500,000. Mr. Edmunds moved to make the
amount $2 000,000. Agreed to.
Mr. Edmunds submitted the following as a
substitute for tho clause in the House bill proposed
to bo struck out by the committee on
appropriations:
No increase of the force of any navy yard
shall be made at any time within sixty days
next before any election to take place for
President of the United States or member of
Congress, except when the socretary of tho
[ navy shall certify that the needs of thepub.ic
service makes such incrca o necessary at that
tir*o.
The substitute was agreed to.
The committee on appropriations reported in ]
favor of increasing the appropriation for the |
bureau of steam engineering from $885,000 to 1
$1,500.000. Mr. Eamunds moved to amend so .
as to make the amount ?1,000,000, and it was J
agreed to. <
"The next amendment of tlio committee i ro- i
videl tt:at hereafter all appointments of ]
second liou'enants in the maiine c<>r,.s ehall be !
made from graduates at the naval rchools. ;
Agreed to. 1
The bill having been considered in committee (
of the whole, was reported to the Senate, and f
the amendments made in committee wore con- .
curred in. It was then read a third time and j
passed. ?
Mr. Edmunds (Rep), of Vermont, asked <
that the bill to amend the Enforcement act be \
taken up. Opposition web made to it, and it j
was taken up only upon a strict party vote of i
21 to 14. The bill having been amended ver- .
bally, and considered in committee of the *
whole, was reported to the Senate. The amend- t
men! s were agreed to, and the bill passed? 1
yeas, 25 ; nays, 13. .
The Senate insisted on its amendments to j
the Indian and Naval Appropriation bills, and
agreed to the conference on those bills asked <
for by the House of Representatives. Messrs. (
Windom, Logan and Ransom were appointed j
members of the committee on the former, and .
Messrs. Sargent, Cragm and Withors on the |
latter.
Mr. Allison (Rep.), of Iowa, explained the <
provisions of the Army Appropriation bill, and e
said that tbo first eiglit sections of the bill as .
it came from the House proposed to reorganize *
the army. The committee on appropriations
had not felt authorized to examine into that 1
subject, and therefore reported in favor of t
striKing out those eight eoctioDS. The bill as v
it came from the House appropriated $21,283,- ?
269.10. To this amonnt the Ssnate committee /
on appropriations had added $3,278,092, making '
the total amount cauea ior uv me oui as now
before the Senate $27,561,361.40, or $1,237,- 1
468.60 less then the amouut appropriated for i
the present fiscal year. The House proposed y
to reduce the army in numbers, as well as the i
compensation of officers. This b.ll proposed '
to reduce the army five regiments, while the
bill which rfec9utly passed the House proposed
a reduction of ten regiments. The amendment i
proposed by tho committee to strike ont the J
e ght sections reorganizing the array, reducing 1
the pay, etc., was agreed to- yeas, 24 ; nays, 13. 1

?yeas, 25 ; nays, 12. 'lhe bill was then read a
third time and passed. ]
HOUSE.
The House took up the 8undry Civil Appro- {
priation bill in committee of the whole, and
was addressed by Mr. Stenger (Dem.), of
Pennsylvania, in regard to the Freedman'e
bank. Mr. Cook (Dem.), of Georgia, spoko in ]
regard to refunding the c.ottou tax. The i
House then laid aside the bill to take np the j
Senate amendments to the Silver bill. }
Mr. Cox (Dem.), of New York, moved con- (
currence in the amendments. Mr. Landers \
(Dem.), of Indiana, offered the amendment j
making the trade dollar no longer a legal ten- \
dor. The amendments were referred to the ]
committee on banking and currency. j
Mr. Stenger retrained his remarks on the i
Freedman's bank. Among the facts he quoted j
incidentally were these : That the doposita of
the colored men in the bank in nine years were i
$56,000,000; the South had been drained of j
money by the branohes of the bank, which j
sent its funds to tho main ooncern at Wash- <
ingtou; the final loss of depositors will be <
about $1,500,600. <
The committee having proceeded to considor i
the bill by sections, Mr. Warren (Dem.), of <
Massachusetts, offered an amendment to pay I
the executor of the estate of the lato Henry
Wilson $10,222, being the salary for the unexpired
term of his office as Vice-President.
After speeches by Mr. Hoar (Rep.), of Massachusetts,
and Mr. Wood (Dem.), of New
York, in favor of the amendment, and of Mr. ]
Holman (Dem.), of Indiana, in favor of limit- '
icg the amount to one year's pay, the amendment

Marlborongh on the Meuse. J
The Maas or Meuse is a far more 8
pleasant stream than the others flowing 0
through Belgium or Holland. The t
Rhine and all the branehes it divides j,
itself into near its close came originally o
of glacier water, and this is not easily t
purified of the glacier filth. But the '
Meuse, descending from the French jj
Yosges, has at the beginning no such
burden to divest itself of. Great part .
of its career is at the same time spent in
stony ground, where the tributary waters
are clear. Its banks, even down in
the Netherlands, are decorated with J
pleasant turf and trees, and altogether j
the river gives opportunity and tempta- 1
tion to the bather. One summer even- f
ing 1 followed a cheerful group of boys ]
down the pleasant meadow by the river ?
side, between Roermonde and Venlo, ]
when I beheld a sight scarcely to be be- 1
lieved, so unprecedented was it on the .
continent. The boys all simultaneously j
stripped themselves?not, according to i
the celebrated trope of Sir Boyle Roche, J
Kirn Newfoundland do*rs, bnt like Eton ]
or Harrow boys, and plunged into the !
stream. It was close to the same spot ]
that on a summer evening some hun- j
dred and seventy-five years ago, a boat
with a distinguished party descended
the river. It was at the beginning of ,
the war of the Spanish succession. The
French troops had been beaten out of
the district, and the party in the boat
being of the other army, were confident
and careless. The result showed, however,
that a French recruiting or crimping
party was hovering about The vessel
did not require to be dragged, as it
was descending the stream; but a towrope
was left loose, and got into the j
hands of the crimpers, who pulled the !
boat to shore. They were men of business.
They selected the working crew
as a valuable acquisition so far, but left
the fine gentlemen as not worth their
while. AmoDg these fine gentlemen was ,
one who was then known as John
Churchill, Earl of Marlborough, and he
was on his way down the river to embark
for England and be created a duke
for his services!

An Egyptian Mummy.
There is a mummy of an Egyptian
princess in one of the buildings on the
Centennial grounds. Some years ago it
Evas presented by the khedive to the
Prince of Wales, who left it in the care
bf an American gentleman at Luxor. It
vas obtained from the latter by Dr. J.
It. M. Cnrrv, of Richmond, Vs., on his
ecent trip up the Nile. The case is
vorm gnawed and half decayed, in spite
)f the well preserved preparation on
;he surface, which is covered with hieroglyphics
said to signify prayers that the
ioul of the princess, having triumphed '
>ver evil spirits, may be admitted to life
vithout death, and enjoy eternal happi- j
less. Other characters tell that the embalmed
remains are those of an Egyp- !
ian lady of the highest rank and of thd
ime of the Pharaohs. The skeleton has ]
been removed from the original case and
but in one of glass. Only the face and
land8 are bare; no boneh are visible ex- '
5ept the top of the cranium, a portion |
)f those of the hands and the brown, J
agged, half disintegrated teeth, which
irotrude from the open month. The
body is covered with a black skin,shriv- j
sled close to the bone, and looks like n
ikeleton that had been dipped in melted |

ScHtNCK's Sea Weed Tonic?In the atmosphere ,
i peri e need here daring the summer months, the leth- j
rgy produced by the beat takes away the desire for j
rholesome food, and frequent perspirations rednoe {
odily energy, particularly those suffering from the I
ffecte of debilitating diseases. In order to keep a '
istnral healthful activity of the system, we mnst resort j ,
o artificial means. For this purpose Schenck's Sea
Veed Tonic is very effectual. A few doses will create
n appetite and give fresh vigor to the enervated body. !

lans have doubted whether dyspepsia can be perms- 1

or that pnrpose. The Sea Weed Tonlo In its nature Is |
otally different from such drugs. It contains no corrclve
minerals or acids; it fact. It assists the regular j
perations of nature, and supplies her deficiencies. The :
onlc In Its nature so mnch resembles the gastric jnlce j

with all its distressing symptoms, follows. The
