CONSTANCY. Although our bauds may never clasp In greeting With warm, fond pressure, whose de lightTbespeaks The heart's too sudden and too conscious beating That sends confessing blushes to our chocks* ? Although my lips drink not in draughts elysian The love that trembles in thy tearful eyes, And destiny with wondering, harsh de rision Doth sever all our dear remembered ties; Although our paths through alien lands are turning, Thine toward the sunrise where a new light gleams; Mine toward the sunset where all hope seems burning As night enfolds me with its bitter dreams; Although Fate reaches out with cruel ?uger And points to ways far off from thee and thine, My heart with thine in every grief will linger, Thy heart will answer every joy of mine. ?Daniel E. O'Sullivan in The Current. Women at a Watering-Place. But the 18-year-old maiden is prepared as for the marriage feast. Her robes are of silk or satin, her gowns are cut low in the neck, diamonds glisten in her ears, and gems shine on her Angers. The younger one sits placidly with mamma on the piazza and gazes wistfully at her sis ter sweeping by on the arm of a young buck just essaying a mustache. In the afternoon the slender, half-grown elder one is bundled into a carriage with a young gallant, while the womanly younger one must read novels to mamma in the bed-room. At night the younger one is a wall-flower; the elder a vine clinging to a waltzing sweetheart. And who can doubt that all theso women dress and pose for the admiration that, after all, they are sure to win. ? Cast an eye down any one of the enormous hall ways of the 'West End hotel, and note the fact that opposite each room are from one to four trunks. Glance into the rooms as you pass by in the mornings when the doors are open. Curtains haug around the side walls so bulged out wdth the dresses they are meat to cover and con ceul that only two-thirds of the original room i3 left. These conditions are elo quent. See the women promenading on the piazzas and squeezed in the ample hallways. Such treasures in jewelry, such fortunes in silks and laces, such beautiful faces and unclad, swelling bos oms, such shawls and wraps, such artistic halrdressing. such pretty posturing and dainty speaking and well-trained car riage of the body in walking ? is it not all for admiration, a little for mutual admiration and a great deal for admira tion by the men? And don't we admire it? Can we help itr?Long Branch Cor. New York Sun. Legendary Weapons in tho Vedaa. Curious and interesting particulars o. the actual construction of legendary weapons are fouud in some of the Vedas and the commentaries on the ancient writings. The bows varied in length front the length of a man's arm to 4 cubits or J Cieet, of which the latter dimension Was j considered M\t bewt. TU^y ww? vB?wi?.??j metal, bom. ui wood; but the best bows were constructed from the bamboo cutj at the end of autumn. The arrows also va ried in length from U feet to 5 or 0. They were tipped with steel points variously shaped, needle or lance pointed, semi circular, dentiform, doubie-edgec* or jagged like a saw, and these forms of points are to-day to be found on the ar rows of many of the aboriginal tribes of India The shafts were greased or an nointed to facilitate their flight; but they never appear to have been poisoned. Somo were altogether made of iron, and it is perhaps those to which Curtlus al ludes when ha says that some of the In dian archers shot with arrows, which were too heavy to be very manageable. One characteristic of the archery of the ancient Hindus seems to have been pecu liar to them alone, which consisted in Shootiug a number of arrows at once, from four to nine at a time. The swords were, as in later days, of various shapes aud sizes, aud many localities were cred ited with producing the best blades. Those of Beugal and Behar were praised as tough and capable of taking a fine edge.' The sword considered in the Veda of the best size must have been a two-handed weapon, as it was fifty lingeis long, with a hilt guarded by an iron netting, probably resembling the modern pata, or the long kanda of the Ralput.?Blackwood's Maga zine. New Telegraph Instrument Brought Out. A new telegraph, Instrument, called the Wftohoue," has been brought out. It BffWfffs its name from the fact that the message is received on the finger by the sense of touch, instead of by the ear us in the well-known "sounder." Otherwise the apparatus is similar to a "sounder," and consists of an electric magnet, which is traversed by the sigual currents from the telegraph line, and attracts an arma ture. The armature operates a small probe or style, which rests against8 the finger with its point and presses into it so as to be felt by the receiver. The attrac tion of the armature actuutiug the probe is interpreted by the receiver, and is writ ten down as the message. Of course, the advantage of the plan is that no sound is heard, and therefore the telegraph is a si lent one. A person may also write down the message with one baud while receiv ing it on tho other.?Chicago Herald. Gold Colony on the A moor. Since the foundation of the gold colony in the new California on the banks of the river Amoor, there have been only three murders and two inllictions of the death penalty?a Russian having been hanged for adulterating the gold dust, and a Jew flogged to death for having spread false news as to the approach of a body of Rus sian troops, hoping thereby to send down the price of gold owing to the panic. There are twenty-seven taverns in the colony, and, owing to the competition, the prices are not high except for spirits. The gold fields, which are twenty-five miles in length by three miles broad, are said to be very rich.?Chicago Times. Lumber, Lath, and Shingle .Statistics.

How a Marriage Is Negotiated by the Matrimonial Go-Betxvoen. The ghatuck, or matchmaker, is gener ally a Brahim of high order?a man of ap parent learning, compliant manners, and Invariably of great persuasive powers. His disposition is as amiable as his occupation is pleasant His strength lies in the use of the particular kind of tact and skill neces sary for all intermediaries, and he is not much affected by scruples of conscience. Genealogy' and pedigree are his specialty. He can repeat eve -ybod y's father's, grand father's, great-grai'dfather's names, and so on to thirteenth generation; and he has at his fingers' ends ail about their caste, gotra or tribe, their quality and position, and the hundred other details about which the Hindoos are very particular. The ghatuck has great pretensions to a know ledge of Sanskrit, though on the first test he breaks down. But it does not in the least matter to him. He hos a stock of Sanskrit phrases and commonplaces stored up in his memory; and these he delivers in so masterly a fashion that the ordinary folk gape at him with wonder. NEGOTIATING A MARRIAGE. There comes of a morning a Brahmin ghatuck to the house of his patron, whose ton's marriage he is negotlnjjag. He has a tall, thin face, with the tilac or jasto rn ark on his high forehead, large, round eyes of a calm, meditative cast, though betraying in their corners an unusually l\j expression, finely turned eye brows, an aquiline nose, and a beardless chin. His placid countenance has a certain charm, and- his look inspires, respect for his talents and confidence tnli'Is abilities. After the usual exchange of salutations the master of the house aska the ghatuck whether everything is all right, and how he finds the girl; upon which the latter answers in this style: "Yes, sir, every thing is all right. The girl is beautiful as $he full moon; even the moon has spots, but she is spotless and peerless. Her teeth are sparkling, like the seeds of a pomegranate; her arched, bright, black eyes boat those of Kama (Hindoo Cupid); her voiee is sweet, like that of a cuckoo; her gait is dignified and graceful, like that of an elephant;-and, a? te her figure, f know nothing to compare it with. She is intelligent, like the goddess Saraswati (Hindoo Minerva), and talks like Lokshmi (the goddess of fortune), and will cer tainly bring bright fortune to any family she may be connected with." With a twinkle in his eye, his patron interrupts him with the question whether the girl really is. handsome and intelligent; t&S? the ghatuck bursts forth: "Ram, Dturga, Hari, Siva, Brahma, Viahnoo?do you think 1 am joking with you? A man like me, descended from Brahma himself, never jokes. Satyam eva jayate?truth is eyer victorious. Why, sir, ysu would not ficrd such a perfect match for your noole io^ In tlese three worlds. And then the girl's parents are willing to bestow such a iM of things as her dowry?a whole house hold of things. What can you have better?" The conversation goes on in this style until the hesitations of the parent are -ayercome. The matchmaker, well uatis 'fl?d with his performance, departs for the l&OUoti Ol ttie lu?j . V.icj.c lie tutuc>v:ui >?'?"'.. young man to be beautiful like Kartie (the god of beauty); his manners are those of a nobleman; he is free from all vices; he studies day and night In short, he is> precious gem?an ornament of his country. SETTLEMENT OF THE LAST POINT. To the questions whether the young man has passed any university examina tions, whether he holds any scholarship, id what degree he has taken, the gha iok replies: "He has not passed any ex amination yet; but what does that mat ter? Bless his dear soul, he wiR pass aR his examinations in three years; and then his parents are so rich and have promised to give such a mass of priceless ornament" and Jewelry!" Then comes a difficulty on the settlement of the lost point; or the mother of the girl grumbles at the boy not having passed any examination as yet. Or parbaps somebody has whispered to the young* man's mother that the young girl's 0?* is rather chubby. The gha tti.dk, well prepared to meet these difficulties, flits backward and for ward; and after the fullest display of his arts and powers, and a good qe.;i of higgling on both sides, he manages to bring the negotiations to a successful termination. Ho Is amply paid for his services, though often life-long curses of all the parties concerned form his chief re . ward. The remuneration of the ghatuck Is not fixed; it depends upon the sort of match he makes and upon the quality and posi tion of the families he unites. At a mid dle-class wedding he gets from ?2 to ?3, besides presents; from ? rich families ho gets about ?5, besides presents worth about ?10. Some matchmakers have been known to make fortunes and buy estates. If a ghatuck can secure an educated and Weil-to-do young man for a poor, common looking girl he is immensely paid for his Services by the parents of that girl. On the contrary, if the bride or bridegroom turns out to be the reverse of what she or he was represented, the ghatuck has only the f6w rupees he got before the marriage for aR his reward, with a shower of blows from tho male members of the family thrown in. Of late years female matohmakers are taking the place of the male ones in some (? tho large towns. Having free access to tue inner apartments of a house?a privi lege their male rivals can never expeot to enjoy?they can reach the ladies, who necessarily have a great Influence in aU marriages. Naturally sharper In wit and gore glib of tongue, their finesse and sub uety have been known to overcome aU difficulties where their mail competitors have failed.?Hindoo Cor. St. James' Ga zette. irouiul Gradatlonu in England. William H. Rideing, writing wittily of gradations in England, avers: "The occu pants of the softest cushions are treated with the softest manners?the occupants of the hardest with an appropriate asperity."?Exchange.

If any one believes that horse-racing is not an expensive business when one's horse doesn't win he has only to look about him to be satisfied. a stable of say twelve horses or even eight is not kept up short of from ?40 to $75 a day, exclusive of jockey fees and raUway transportation. There is a trainer at a salary of from ?150 to >~M a month, a foreman at from ?75 to ?100, and there are generally two darkey grooms for each horse. Then there is the feed-stable outfit to be kept up and an endless array of little things to be bought. Then there are the entry fees and forfeits that in the course of the season amount to a great deal of money. The jockeys-take a great deal out of the profits, too, when there are any. Ike Mur phy, the colored jockey, who just now en joys the distinction of being called the Archer of America, receives ?0,000 a year from Baldwin for the first call on his services, and ?2,000 a year from Corrigan for the second call. That is, when Bfld win has a horse in a race Murphy must mount for him. When Baldwin has no entry or It is withdrawn, then Corrigan can call on the jockey. When neither has a horse on, then Murphy can ride for the owner that pays him best. What with salaries, fees, gratuities and a turn ^ow and then at the pool box, Murphy is said to have an income . 815,000 a year. When he wins a big ana unexpected stake the lucky owner usually gives him from ?500 to ?1,000 as a present. Lucky Baldwin gave him ?500 extra the year he won the Derby with Volaute, and ?750 the other day when ho won it with Silver Cloud. The next best paid of the jockeys is Duffy, rider for the Haggin stable. He receives ?5,000 a year straight, aud can ride for any body else when Haggin has no horses in the race. These are the two best rider on the turt Last year Mur phy won fifty-five mounts and lost but eighty-nine; Duffy won thirty-three mounts and lost seventy-nine. Kelly is rider for Porter Ashe, and Withers, the boy wdio was injured the other day, rides for W.?r. Barnes. Both are well paid. Many may think it absurd that jockeys should be enabled to earn such large sums, but, wnen the hazardous nature of the business is taken into account and the skill and judgment required considered, the boys do not seem overpaid. It is tlie most dangerofis occupation in the world. The liability of horse3 to bolt, stumble, to shy, or to do auy one of the dozen things that horses under excite ment are likely to.do, is almost sure to re sult in disaster if indulged in at the frightful speed with which they go. Tiie accident to Withers and the death of his horse, Forrest, the other day, was a start ling illustration of the perils of the track. Again, some horses?indeed, most race horses of high blood and mettle?are in clined to be vicious and headstrong. They frequently run away in their exercising and training gallops and become uncon trollable. Such brutes are a constant menace to grooms and jockeys, and acci dents are far more numerous than the public hears of. ?Chicago Herald. Indian Children's Love of Fun. ? Some Indiun schoolboys found their teacher had a very great aversion to frogs. To them it was a continual source of amusement to see her run away from them. One day a boy caught one and shut it up in the table drawer. The teacher entered the room. All were in order, but j~*j^she^n?ngdJbe drawer the frog, glad "'TTrg^iii'f^TrijSrTyTTenpeu out -uyAmtb.0. table and the teacher made a great ado. One of the -oys, In a gentlemanly way, took up the frog, carried It to the door, and threw it out. No sign of enjoyment could be discerned in their faces. They remained through school hours retaining their solemn dignity. Afterward as they told of it they laughed until the tears came, laughed over and over again as they re membered the dismay of the teacher. Why did they not laugh at first ? They had not yet come into the ways of white men enough to realize that we would ex cuse rudeuess in our pupils, even under these circumstances, and they consider it rude to laugh aloud or to laugh at all at the expense of another in the other's pres ence. Indian children are in the house quiet and orderly, they sit and listen to hear older people talk, and if anything is said that is very amusing, so much as that they feel that they can not control them selves, they put their hands on their mouths, and run outside to laugh. Men will laugh gently and quietly, and now and then you may hear an old woman laugh long and loud; if so, some relative will say aside: "Hear how loud she laughs, like a white man; she is uu womanly."?American Missionary. Killing an Kndless Snake. One day last summer while the troops were being brought into Fort Ueno, I. T., to be ready to suppress an outbreak among tne Cheyennes and Arrurmhoes, they found a great many snakes in the prairie grass. In one day the soldiers killed thirteen large rattlesnakes, A young cavalry officer gave his experience with an unusual specimen of the snake family. After going into camp about dusk he started for the spring in a little ravine near by. When not far from the ravine he saw the object, which was about an inch in diameter and of n slimy green color, dragging its length across his path with a rapid movement. Quick as a Hash he drew his saber and slashed it in two. This only had the effect of quickening it in its mad race for the ravine. He made another and another slash, cutting olf two or three feet a number of times, but still was not able to head or check its speed until he got to the edge of the ravine, when he saw, just below him, one of the company burses, whose lariat he had been chopping.?St. Louis Globe-Democrat. i Wh.it a New York Chemist Says.
