As soon as he came & sight, the date Merchants pointed ii?n out to one another and spoke together in low tones. V It is the invincible Ei-Malek, chieftain offeree mountain tribe, who venerate hunjjf a sain i Since he lost his eldest son, two years ago, El-Malel: speaks but little and ne ver amiiea. His beard has become al- : most white, fcut his arm has lost nothing of its power; he handles bis deadly lance as if it were a reed, and when he urges his faithful hcr=e Ye?uf across the desert terror follows as his shadow. " Yuasuf, like all the horses of the South, has a strong back, slender legs, and large hoofs; like the five favorite mares of the prophet, he is descended from Solomon's famous stables, his coat is snow white, and hie long, flowing tail is soft a* silk. Yusiuf understands and obeys his mas ter's lightest wish. Erect in his saddle, El-Malek follows with a keen glance among the motley crowd a man :n a gold embroidered bur noose, who has just ome to Mirouan. The tradesmen, also, point at this man with their finger, bat with a scornful ! air, as though indicating one stricken with the plague. This man is Hassan Bey, the insolent I chief of the Otled-Xayls, who, jealous of his brother Ahmed, killed him with arrows shot from afar; be boasts of this deed, and laughs when he sees the crowd move away from him. He had built upon ttie D'^Iefi plateau, in the centre ti his tented village, a stone house, which wa3 abo a fortress. For many yeirs he had pass^_ j his nights watching the iArab girls d?nce~A to the sounds of the de^boukas; but, one | evening, passing near the foun^fin, he had stopped to look at tfcfe^yrfung girls filling their copper urns. And now he ? has come to ilirouan to buy bridal ornajrenta, for Hassan Bey, chief of the ; Ouled-Nayls, 13 marry the beautiful Zuleika. Zuleika is only/a weaver's daughter, \ but she is very beautiful. The poor X child wept, but she wept in vain, for the ! weaver is a amer, and the chief of the \ Ouled-Nayls is not the man to allow j himself to be thwarted in his wishes. She most marry Hissan Bey, the fratri cide. Who would prevent it, since God per mits it? El-Malek had heard this story on$j an hour before he reached Mirouan. and' bad said to himself : 4 'God will not per mit it, for I will prevent it." '?????^?toiiilrfefc&.placed her urn upon the ledge .p/ thtr "foiltxafn, - but had not ! thought of filling it. Her companions, ! one alter the other, had gone away, but she still remained. It was the last time that she would come to the fountain, for to-morrow Hassan Bey would carry her away to his battlercunted house, which was sombre as a torn 0. She lifted up her little tttonzed hands to heaven imploring that death might be sent to her. But from the leaden sky no consolation came. Instead, Hassan Bey ! . appeared, riding upon hi3 flame colored horse,? and escorted by his warriors. He knewthat she was at the fountain, and wished to see her there where he had met her for the first time. She was ^compelled to hear his lying words. The young girl turned her eyes away, and, as she began to fill her urn, her tears mingled with the water. ' "Zuleika!" x. Who calls? Certainly Hassan Bey eannofc have disguised his voice with j such a grave and .nan ly tone. Who is ; this mas, with the white beard, sitting 1 erect in his saddle, lanca in hand, look ing athetfkso compassionately? s:; "Zuleika!" he called once more, jointing to Hassan Bey, who was ap ,k-~-ching'. :e looked up, and suddenly her eyes with a new light, for 3he felt tis man had been sent by God. kve me!" she cried; "save me!" ^Malek held out his hand and aided 0Mfe??irl to mount before him. ^rfrail form; he mur mured: "Do noHfcNrfwi^Theo, as tbocogh calling upon a brother, ^T-Malek said: "Yussufr' t The noble animal neighed; and started o3 like the wind.

El-Malek plies his spurs in vain and Zu :?:ika wastes her caresses and praise, for .ne poor animal's hoofs dip La the nar row path and he staggers. El-Malek's inn trembles; he is beset with fever; the coolof the filling night does not suf fice to refresh his brow; the profile of the violet mountain and the confuse! yhape of the turpentine trees, with their blood-red clusters suspended over the vjvs3, are mingled before his eyes. He ;s blinded by vertigo. He cannot stoo to drink at the brook which flows in the ravine, though a swallow of water would, perhaps, save him. Hassan Bey has seen traces of blood upon the rocks, and his cries of hate have become cries of joy. 4 "We have them," he cries; "they are Our bP And yet his vjice trembles; he fc-ars the fical straggle and Zl-Malek's terrible lance. Night has again passed and the light of morning chases the jackals that have come, scenting their prey from afar. Yussuf still runs, but much more slowly. Two days' journey separates him from the tribe of which his master is chief. Two days! and Yussuf has but a few hours to live! He feels that with hi3 lait breach hia beloved master, too, will die. The path becomes narrower. Yus suf rrache3 the lidge, and, reeling, stops, i "The end has come!" murmured Zu leika, terrified, and for the hundredth time she besought El-Malek: "Do not remain with me. Your horse can still save you alone. Fly!" "Yussuf can save neither voa*,-uor t me." "Then kill me. ' "I have promised to save you!11 "God has not wished it to be so. Save ' me from this man !" "That is what I am going to do. : Alight." ? "Ah. ves; I understay vou ? death is at tSNJ^ottom of this abyss. I shall J seek "You dopot understanclme. Look!" and, with his V^d, El-Malek pointed to the north, to \he other slope of the mountains, whicn^ould be seen through i the hollow of the r<5cks. "You see," he sai^/that mirror that ' shines down there? Zahrez. The mountain on the other^i3e*T>f~the lake is the Djebel Sa'aari. There is the^ tribe of my fathers, there are camped my people. Hasten with all your strength. Order the first herdsman yoa n eet to call iQ my name to his nearest neighbor, so that, from summit to sum mit, my name may *ake my warriors. Cry to all the echoes of the mountains* 'El-Malek shall not dip unavenged T Go!" ' ~ ' ?^"But it will take two days, at least." *God be with you!" She kissed the hand of the chief who had saved her life;; then she fan down the road a9 qnfckly as her failing strength would let her. El-Malek planted his lance in the tirtund and supported himself against ii, erect in his saddle. He talked for a fong time to Yussuf, and the animal shook his bleeding head. "Halt!" ordered Hassan Bey. Reach ing a turn in the road, he had seen El Malek planted across the defile, and this new attitude astonished and disturbed him, "Does he pretend to oppose us now? Let us wait^jand in the meantime breathe a little."" The advice was good, and no one gainsaid it. Men and hories sought a spnng. Hassan Bey; however, did not take his eyes off the redoubtable man who sat there motionless upon his horse between the two wails of rock. "And now that ail have rested enough, forward!" ' No one stirred. So long as it was a question ol pursuing El-Malek, the chiefs followers felt brave enough. Now that they were called upon to at tack him face to face, the boldest were afraid. Ha?san Bey himself trembled. "Let him begin," said one, "let him come on." "Very well," growled the chief. The day declined; the redoubtable sentinel, who had gleamed white in the burning sun. now stood out in black silhouette against the starry sky. Neithei horse nor master stirred, and the lane* stul stood planted in the ground. The .moon rose, "and it was an awe 3ome sight to see this motionless warrior under the pal5* light; he watched the enemy with his steady eyes still open like diamonds. "He is covering Zuieika's retreat!" f-^^san Bey had said to himself at the very first. He felt that it would soon be too iate to continue the pursuit," Aad yet he remained in his place, changed into a statue, powerless to conquer the fear that emanated from this grand guardian. After the rosy dawn, the leaden aT-cy ; after the red twilight, the blue night; then the aurora again; and the sentinel, still motionless, as well as those whos< way he bars. Sometimes the shadow of ar, eagle makes a fleeting spot on the rocks; then the shadows increase, and great oirds come from ail corners of the heavens, drawing closer their rapid circles; now ff is no linger eagles, but vultures. -w They almost touch the lance of the cavalier, out he did not appear to see them. One of them perched upon his shoulder. El-Malek did not stir. "He is dead!" cried Hassan. Bey. mad with anger and spite; and, turning to ward his men who still hesitated, he gave the order: "Forward!" Neither Hassan Bey nor his men ad vance! twenty paces. The noise that put the vultures to flight was the the gallop ing of^the Bedouin horses that had come from,- the Djebel-Sahari. The threats ^thati-Tlassan Bey uttered to keep up hi; cou?ige were never finished; an arro^ p;c<ced his throat, and, falling from hi* horse, he rolled into the abyss. I "Eich oae for himself!" cried th< - Ckilde-Naylk' ?Aud while they rushed down the path at fall speed, without daring to locjk back, Zuicika, sobbing, kissel thei icy hand of the chieftain who ha 1 protected her in death as in life. ?

Cover shouid not be the principal re liance for the hog pasturage, but if there ? not juScient of this a field should be ?059a with oats, rye, or barley to supple ment it. Sorghum and pumpkins should j also be grown to help out the feeding : later in the season, so that the hogs may I he made ready for market without so J much as we have been in the habit of I using in th? past. The best profit in hog : feeding resulfis when the desired weight : can be made with the least corn. This ; .method of feeding is practicable now, ? because the market does not call for such ! heavy weight as formerly. '*I/ght : baconr' is now the grade that brings the { top prices. ? Chicago Times. - the vietues of ST0XES. I have heard a farmer brag that he nardly bad a stone on his place a3 large a3 his hand, and to most farmers the idea of a stony farm is abhorrent. This is a mistake, and stones, like almost everything else, are not without their virtues. They help to make the soil rich by constantly wearing away and giving to it new material. They make it mel low and porous, and when coolness is needed they keep it cool. In warm weather they cool very quickly at night and condense the ^ew, thu3 gathering moisture from the ir\t3t air, so the land does not bake in a dry season or run to gether in a wet. Then the stones gather th? water around them, making the soil porous. Ia winter they give warmth to the ground, for they absorb and retain the heat from the sun. Asiong as t'aey do not interfere with the cultivation of the land let them remain. ? American Farmer. SHRINKAGE OF J0L"K. During theliot, dry montfcs when flies are abundant, cows are almost sure to Bbrinje in the milk flow. There are some pointf-'about this matter that are well to consider. A great many dairy -farmers ^follow the practice of turning the cows into small pasture at night for the sake of the convenience of finding them the next morniug. During the day the cows are so bothered by flies that they will Jot %at what they should even if it is easily procured. If they cannot graze at night the result will be that they gat too little food in the twenty-four hours, and must in consequence shrink in their milk. The wise dairyman will see to it that the cow ha3 plenty to eat. If it requires a little extra study and effoit on his part to get it for her he will doit, for he knows this important fact, that if the cow shrinks in summer he can never get her back to as large a flow in the fall as he otherwise would. ^ Good management of the cows is one of the foundations of success in milk production. Fiies in the day tinn and confinment at night will beat the best cow in the world. ? Hoard's Dairy men. CARE OF FENCE CORNERS. Next to the garden, which ought to be the best but is too often the worst look ing place on the farm, the fence corners art likely, at this time, to need the most attention. It goes without saying that it is difficult to keep these places clean. It is still more difficult to get them clean after they have been allowed to beco.me foul. And jet the farmer who has a high ideal of what a farm should be will not be contented to have his fence Comers become a tangled hedge ol bushes or a nest of weeds. Bushes are worse than weeds, for the latter cjtn be cut more readily and are not nearly a; difficult to destroy. Not that it is easy to eradicate weeds when they have taken possession of fence corners and have been allowed to ripen their seeds and mature their stalks year after year with nothing to interfere with their growth and development. But it is play to'dis pose of such plauts when compared with the uprooting of wild cherry bushes, hardbacks, blackberry bushes and similar growths which find a congenial home in neglected fence corners. Yet even the latter nuisances can be extir pated. It will take a good deal of work to do it, but if the work is wisely direct ed, and is continued long enough, ii will bring its reward. Simply cutting off the tops, two or three inches from tht ground, once a year will not be enective. Removing the fence, plowing the ground, and planting it to some cro\', which requires clean cultivation, is the most ffficient course. If this is fol lowed for two or three seasons in succes sion the land can then be seeded and cai> be easily kept clean. Where this courst is impracticable, cutting the roots of the shrubs and removing as large portions of them with the stems as possible, will give a docided setback to the intruders. The nest spring cut off the tops of any and all the plants which appear, and re peat the process in the fall. It is slow work, and hard work, but if persevered in will, in time, give clean fence corners. And the faun upon which this work is needed will look enough better, and b; enough bstter to pay liberally for it performance. ? American Dairyman. EOS CHOLERA SYMPTOMS. Symptoms of hog cholera are described by the Iowa State Board of Health as follows: The presence of the disease is indicated by a cold shivering, lasting from a few seconds to several hours; frequent sneezing, followed by a loss of appetite; rough appearance of the hair, Or. opin^ of the ears, tstupidnc=?, nt tempts to vomit, tendency to rorv. the bedding, to lie down in dark an 3 q ue; places, dullness ofjthe eves, often dim; sometimes swelling of the head, erup tions oTfhe ears and other parts of the bony, dizziness, laborious breathing, vitiated appetite for dung, dirty and salty substances, accumulation of mucus, .in inner corner of $he eye, discbarge from the nose, -fetid 4m i offensive odor of the discharges from the bowels, of fensive exhalations;" diarrhce^l dis charges rj*e semi-fluid, of grayish green color and often mixed with blood. In many cases the skin on the belly be tween the hind leg?, behind the cars and -even on the nose has numerous reu spots which toward the fatal termination turn purple. As the disease progresses the animal h" ^omes sluggish, the head droops v, the nose near the ground, but usually will be found lying down with the nose hid in the bedding. -"If there has been costiveoess, about two days before death there will be offetfsive, fetid discharge; the voice becomes faint and hoarse; the animal is stupifl, emaciation increases rapidly, the skin becomes dry, hard and very unclean, there is a cold, clammy sweat, and death scon follows with convulsions, or grad ually by exhaustion, without a struggle, j In chronic diseases or those of long duration, the animal becomes weak, and i:es down most of tfceTinre, eats but lit ; !e and has the diarruas.1. These case? ! aay linger for weeks, scattering the i ioison of the disease in the discbarge rherem they go. ? Western Swineherd. ? . FABJ? A>D GARDES NOTES. An excess of manure is injurious to ;rapes. A sharp, steel rake is a good weed : ;iller at the start. Cultivation will benefit the trees for a : e?r years after setting out. Prune the trees in the orchard keep ' ? n <jood shape from the start. Good returns are made when tne ssim nilk is given to the young pigs. Pall up all dead stalks of plants fron :he flower-beds and keep them neat and I .rim. ! ? It is useless to try to keep pigs strong ?nd healthy without plenty of proper Keep the tomatoes well -pickei off the vines. Every one should be removed ! when ripe. Ciover and corn cut in the milk fed to young pigs is an excellent thing to pro*, mote growth. - - - Strict attention to your own business w?l be more dollars in your pocket than ; tne election of any ticket in the field. | No plan of management -will be beat' in all coses; the owner must adapt the treatment to the condition of the orchard. If second or third crops are to be grown in the garden, b8 ready to plant them as soon as the first crops have" ma 1 tured. ! On clay land especially the applying of course fresh manure is beneficial on account of the mechanical effects pro ; duced. ^ ~ ^ 1 here is no profit in pigs that receive1 no attention. To make them pay they ; should receive some care and be fed ia the most economical way. i Vick says that bulb planting should be dons as early in the fall as the bulb can be procured ^though it is not too late any time before winter closes in. ; Supplying all of the essentials of a I crop, such as a good soil, thorough ^ preparations and good seed are of m^re ? importance than the signs of the moon. One reason why some men do not suci ceed in fruit growing is that they gro v nothing else. They buy fertilizer, meit, grain: and everything they use. This takes all the profit. Flower pots can be rid of earthworm? by pouring on the soil a warm decoctioa of wormwood and powdered horse ohest? ni ts. The worms will come to the sur* , face and can then be removed. Nothing delights a pig or benefits him more than a feed of foots. It is worth | while to give them a ration of potatoes, j beets,: turnips, or artichokes at least ; 0Qce a week, or as often as possible. Fruit tree borers do not like to work ! where the fruit grower plants the trunks near the ground with cart grease that is j made up of a portion of pine tar. 3oms emploj gas tar, but this often does great j injury, says Meehan in his monthly, j * Any man who has spent hours of valu able time trying to locate a stopped ut j drain tile will appreciate the advice j never to make under drains* without , making a map locating them, and indi cating the depth at which they are laid. The brood sow should be given plenty of food; in fact, she requires about twic? as much a3 an ordinary pig. If 8he does not havB enough food to kee> herself and farnw in good condition the owner will be disappointed when the little pi<^ ! are full grown. ? . According to Professor L. H. Bailey ! .eight and perhaps ten species of native j cherr.es are in cultivation; of these ? three are grown for fruit an 1 all but one or two Rre cultivated for ornament. None of the species have gained much prominence under cultivation, and mr>3t of them a:re of comparatively receut in | troductior.

Oa and on, uotil tha lepers were brought qcwq and washed cf their leprosy and the de*d were lift?d iot< the waWr that they might have lire, and pi ark of joy ani promise were gathered from the brink, and innumerable churches gathered oa either bank and the tide flows on deeper and stronger and wider until it rolls into the river from under the t iron e of Gad., min gling billow with billow, and orightness with brigntnes*, and joy with joy, and hosanna with hosanna. I was looking at some of tba paintings of the artist, Mr. Kensett. I t iw some pic tures that were just faint out in?s; in some places you would see only the branches of a tree and no trunk; and in another case the trunk and no branch??. He had not finished the work. It would have taken him <?tft and months perhaps to hava completed it. Well, my friends, in this world we get only the faintest outline of what Christ is It will take all eternity to fill ? jf the picture gloving, so kind, so merciful, so great! Paul does not, in this chapter say of Christ He is good, or He is loving, or He is patient, or He is kind, but in His exclamation of the text he embraces everrtiilng when he savs. "Christ is all aad in al?/' ' ! 7 ? I remark in the firs- p. ace, Christ is every thing in the Bible . I do not care where I open the Bib!^, 1 find Jesus. In whatever poth I starts I come after a vhile to the Bethlehem mfan^er. I go back to the old dispensation, and srea laraboa the altar and say, "Beholil t ha Lamb of God which taketh away the sin oi the worliP' Th?n I go and see the manna provided for the I-raeBtes in the wilderness, "and say, "Jesus, the bread of life." vThen I look at tha tocn which was smitten bv the prophet's rod, an-S as the water gushes our, I say, "It is Jesus, the fountain opened for sin and for uncleannees ** I go back and look at the writings of Job and bear him exclaim, "I know that my Keeietmer liveth Then I go to Ezekiel and I find Christ presented th?re as "a iilant of renown,'' a'ld then I turn over to Isaiah and Christ is spoken of ''as a sheep before the shearers." It is Jesus all the way between Genesis ani Maiachi. Then I turn s. over in the New Testament and it is Christ in the parable, it is Christ in the rairacla. it is t-nnst in tn? evangelist's story, it it Christ in the apostle's epistles and it ? Christ in the trumpet peal of the Aoocalyp3?. I know there are a great maiiy resole "who do not find Christ in the BibW. '< Here is a man who studies the p<:ble as a historian Well if you come a historian, you will find in this book how the world wa? mad? how the seas fled to their places, how empires were established, how nation foueht with nation, javelin ringing against bari>9 gfon, until the earth was ghastlv with th? dead. \ou will se? the coronation of prince? the triumph of conqu?rors, and the worlc turned upside down ani back a^ain and down again, cleft and scarred wirh great agonies of earthquake and temoest and bat ?u'vi u W(?nderJ^:- history, puttins to t .e blush all others in tin accuracy of its recital and in tie stupendous evants it re oords. Homer an I Thucydide3 and Gibbon could mabo great stories out of little events but it took a Moses to tell how tha heavens and the earlh were made in one chapter and to give the history of thousands of vear* unon two leave?. ! Tiiere are others who come to tie Bible mereiy a3 antiquarian1. If you C3"na as an antiquarian, you will find a great many o Id things in the Bible? peculiarities of maanar and custom, marriage and burial; peculiar ities of dre ?, tunics, sanda's. crisping pin?, amulets and girdles aui tinVjing ornament*, jfyou come to lo^k at military arrant ments, you will find coats of mail aad j?v | ?|1DS so'l engines of war and ciroamvaHa ticn and entrapment*. If you lojk for pa cu iar musical instruments, you will find psalteries and shigiuoths and rams' horns. The antiquarian will find in the Bible curi ! 9?^** asfriculture, and in co nmerca, and in art, and in religion that will ke? him i absoroed a great while. Toere are those ' who come to this Bible as vou would to a | cabinet of curiosities, and you pick up fchia and say, "What a strange sword tibat is!" "nrv at a bat this is!" and what an unlooked for lamp that is!" and j the Bible to such becomes a British Museum Then there are others who find nothing in I the Bible but the poatry.. Well, if vou come ; a poet, you will find in this book faultless rhythm, and bold imagery, and startling antithesis, and rapturous lyric, and sweet ! pastoral, and instructive narrative, aud de votional psalm; thoughts express*! in "a style more solemn than that of Montgomery more bold than that of Milton, more terrible tban that of Dante, more natural than that of W ordsworth, more impassioned than j that of PolJock, more ten ier than that of ! Cowper. more weird than that of Spenser ?Jc'fais gr^at poam brings all the zens df the earth intg its coronet, and it weaves the flames or judgment in iw garland aud poors eternal harmonies in it3 rhythm Everything-this book /touches it makes beauUfu', from the plain stow* of tha sum ; mertarashing floor, and the daughters of { JNahor filling the trough for the camels, and i #>e fi?h pools of Hesbbon, up to the psalmist praising God with diapason off storm and whirlwind, and Job leaiin? forca Orion, Arcturus and the Pleia ies. It is a wonder ful poem, and a great many people read it as they do Thomas Mo a re's "Lalla RoOkb '* i and \\ alter Scott'3 ^Lady o! the Lake." and Tennyson's "Charge or taoLi?ht Brigade." j They siuiown, and are so absorbed in lock mg at tlft shells on the shore that thay for i get to look off on tha great ocean of Odd's mercy and salvation. . . -.-T : Then there .are others who cooaa to this boo^ as skeptic*. They marshal paasaz | against passage, and try to get Matthew ane Luie in a qmrrel, and wouid have a died crepancy berween what Paul and James siys about faith and war is, and thay try the account o? Mo;es concerning tae crea tion by modern decisions ia science, and re ^ <o!ve that in all onestf-ns between the *ci?n r jnc eipiorer an i mi i nspir <;j S will give tae preference to the geologist. j These men ? thesr soi ieri, I w4n say | rock poison out of "the iweetest flowBr? ; Tney fatten their infinity uoon td? | truths which hava lei thousands to , heaven, and ia thrir diitortel vision | prophet seems to war with prophet, and evangelist with 2ra.neri\i*t ani'ano3tle wife liatt way can ana some oaa wart or character in a maa of God mentioned in that Bible these carrioa crows caw and flap thai* wings over the carcass.

They do no: believe it possible that the Bib!e story should be true whidh says that the du nb ass spate, while they themselves prove She thinj po> ' sible by their own utterances. I am amused beyond bounds when I hear one of these men talking about a future I life. Just ask a mm who rejects that Bible ! what heaven is, ani hear him befog your j soul. He will tell you that heafven is I merely the development of the iateraal re- j sources of a man; it is an efflorescence of the i dynamic forces into a state of ethereal and 1 transcendental lucubration, in close juxta position to the ever present '?was" and the ' the everlasting "n3. j Considering themselves wise* they are foois for time, fools for eternity. Then there is another class of persons who come to the Bible as controversialists Th?v are enormous Presbyterians or fierce Ban tjsts or violent Methodists. Taey cut th* Bible to suit their creod instead of cuttinz tneir creei to suit the Bible. I? the S-ril. tures think as they do, well; if not, so nap -h the won? for the Scriptures.

Tho C >ssacks as Soldiers. The Cossacks furnish soldiers for al ! branches of the service m Russia, but | especially for the cavalry. They are skill. ; ; fu\ horsemen and brave soldiers, ari( there is a great deal that is romantic aud i interesting connected with their history. While the empire was limited to a part of what is now called Russia in Europe i thej were independent and formed a bar I rier against the Turks on the south and : the Tartars on the southeast. As th< ! Czars extended their dominions the Cos i #acks were obliged to become Ru-rgiar subjects, and thev have since rendered i infinite service as military pioneers ir i Siberia and Turkestan. Of the Cossacki \here are thirty-three regiments, not counting some others in service on th< Volga and in Central Asia. They *re al exempted from taxes, but owe their mili tary service. In time of peace only a third of the men are liable to railitan duty. Tbey are designated according i to their plac3 of residence as Cossacks o ! the Don, the Ural, of Astrakan, of Terek, of Konban, etc., the last three province? . being on or near the Caspian sea. They use instead of the cavalry saddle ; a fiat saddle with cushions, and it is t remarkable evidence of their skill io horsemanship that the bridle has only been ia use for a brief period. Theii feat? in riding, such as standing erect al full gallop, springing off while moving at full speed, leaping, riding two horses, picking up objects on the ground whil< at the gallop, with other evolutions quit* : as extraordinary, could hardly be equaled ! by the best trained modern equestrians. The military service about the Caspian i eea and in Turkestan is chiefly performed ; by Cossack infantry and cavalry recruited for the greater part in the Caucasus.? San Francisco Chronicle.

"Sick" Pearls in * Sabuerged At the foot of a cliff under the win* dowB of the Castle of Miramar, formerly the residence of the Mexican Emperor Maximilian, at a depth of eighty feet below the surface of the clear waters of the Adriatic, is a kind of cage fashioned by divers in the face of the rock. In that cage are some of the most magnifi* cent pearls in er -stenoe. They belong to the Archduchess R ifner.
