How many persons know that New York city has a dialect all its own, and one that it maintains in parity by teach ing it in the public schools? Many per sons have commented cn the precision with which a New Yorker can f'pot a stranger the instant the stranger under takes to pronounce tho name of the prin cipal streets in the town. We call it Brandway, emphasising the last sylla ble very strongly. It appears to be quite a trick to do this, and it is evidently an nnnatural pronunciation, for we notice that the very great majority of stran gers say Broa-wa. St) we spot them on ?the instant and ask them from what part of the conntry they hail, jnst to show them that there is something about them that is not cit-yfied, and to net them ptizeling abont whether it is in the shape of their hat, or the style of their shoes, or what it is. People from the sonth betray the fact by calling our Houston street “Hewston st reet,” as that name is pronounced from Texas to the Chesapeake, but we play as strange a tried; with another name, for we call Cocnties slip “Quincy slip.” As no otie would do that naturally, we detect strangers by that pronunciation. The name of Hoboken is another that we trifle with, calling it Habbucken. But in ways and bywords other than these I can phjc out a New Yorker any where that he and I may meet, whether it be in Boston or in the Rocky monn- tains. I can do this by noticing how he pronounces the “nr” sonud in such words as birth, bird, earth, heard, etc. All the rest of the country pronounce those words burtb, bard, nrth and hnrd. Not so the New Yorker. He is care fully taught not to do so in all tho pub lic schools, aa well as by his parents at homo. The queer little twist that enters so largely into our language in marring one of the cardinal sounds that compose it ia thus expressed by our tongues; unjitb is how we say earth, bur-yid la how we «ay hnr-rid ’ for heard C. F. Gyle* A Co., have a large qtiat * tlty cf Rust proof Oat* at -&0 eta per % large 'lot of Klonr ufoo • hU*h we are offering exceedingly k uL TL*r also par tbr tt.ght»t pri<«* for Cwttoo and Pfodoce. 0 say bird. We and mnr-yid-der for ranrdex. All of na who were born in New York have heard the public school teachers insisting upon this peculiar twist, commanding the pu|itU to pot on the trademark aa fight ing men-occe wore tho coat of arms of their feudal masters. • Most of na, t/yy have heard nfc**, careful little girls oo the way home from school correcting careless ootnpamoQs by uunsth^ that “yrvi mpejuui say bard; jruo niTiet bay II ftLaljr, Imr-jU.” Of all the senseless and unmoMdhl and bad things that are done to English that la one of the worst, because One aspects lo hear a language si lts best in the | greatest city of a country, and thither foreigners repair to study English and then perliaps to go back home and teach it with a whole lot of little tricks like that in their heads, tp be solemnly taught and scattered! until no one knows where the mischief will end. Of course I do not want the reader to understand that very nice people lyurdor the language in these or any other Ways, but the great masses of New Yorkers, those who get their learning in the pnblic school* and whose tongues were trjflned iU old Now ’ York homes of tho middle class—these Jure the victims of this most peculiar habit.—Cor. Providence Journal. Stooping Shoulders. Apropos of round shoulders, I decided ! the other day aa 1 sat in a groat public j gathering, drawn from all parts of the ’ land, that what we need most is not more ! currency, or less taxes, or a new banking ! system, btit a law to enforce sitting np straight. Take 100 Americans—meh and women, and you could not find enough good shoulders among them to make up a table at wliist. This defect of car riage used to bo thought peculiar to the rural districts. It is not so. City peo ple show it less, bnt this is due to the cunning of their tailors, and not to any virtue of their own. 1 am opposed to meddlesome legisla tion, bnt I should welcome the appoint ment of officials who would go abont and compel the populace to sit and stand erect, as the old worthies of the Puritan meeting house compelled the congrega tion to keep awake. If such a statute wore enacted, in two generations we would not know ourselves—or rather our descendants—eo great would be the improvement in health, physique and dignity.—Kate Field’s Washington. Caramel* and Constancy. In one of the large confectionery stores on Chestnut street the girls who have been there a long time know most of the engaged couples in town, and can tell how long the sweet entanglement has been pending. They also are pretty well posted as to what engagements are broken. The reason is that one of the things the engaged young man is sup posed to do is to keep his fiancee sup plied with candy. Usually when * a young man lets up on his supply of caudy it is a sign either of a misunder standing or that the wedding day is near at hand, for, straugo to say, with the approach of the nuptial date the bride- grdOin elect generally gets economical in sweetmeats, (tpseibly because h« fe saving up for the bridal bouquet.— Philadelphia Times. The Uulvcnlty of Morocco. Besides being a university of learning, the Kaironiu of Morocco is also a cara vansary and an fhn, in which are wel come to sleep aud to rest all tho^ who are so poor as not to be able to pay the small copper coin which the fundak keeper requires before shelter is given, and the fact Mmt its doors are wide open and its hospitality granted without any restriction whatever is widely known throughout the empire. — Fortnightly Review. Color BlIadncM Among Indtnna. Some years ago an examination by Dr. Fox of 250 Indian boys resulted, he stiit<>s, in the discover}’ that two were color blind—a very low percentage when compared with tl»« whites—while none of the Indian tdrls was thus affected. The Lore of DomcaVlo Animals. The man who has not music in hie soul is justly exposed to the disparage ment of the poet, but what shall bo said of him who cannot find^ cine dumb ani mal at least on which to bestow care aud kindness? Sailors and soldiers have their pets; the feathered, thb feline, and the canine creation are universal favor ites. t Carriers and draymen are rarely in different to the companionship of the four footed friends, and tho navvy’s dog. while his master is at*work in the cut ting or on the embankment, sits on his pea jacket and guards tho bundle con taining that- midday meal of which, when the toiler returns, the good and faithful servant will have his share. It would be a very drdary and perhaps a wickeder world than it is if wo hod not animal pets, domestic as well M regimental.—London Telegraph. Tra« Marriage. A happy wedlock is q long falling in love. I know young persons think love belongs only to the brown hair and plump, routad, crimson cheek. Bo it does for its beginning, just ns Mount Wash ington begins at Boston bay. Bnt the golden marriage is a part of love which flie bridal day knows nothing of. Youth is tin? tassel and silken flower of love; age ip the full corn, ripe and solid in tho ear. Beautiful ia the morning of love, with its prophetic crimson, violet, saf fron, purple and gold, with its hopes of days that are to come.' Beautiful also is the evening of love, with its glad re membrance and its rainbow side turned toward heaven as well as earth.—Theo dore Parker. In t!»« Star’s Country. On the Way back from Izora tho czar wanted a cup of tea, Imt owing to a sud den jerk of the railway carriage the tea was m>8ct. The next morning (as goes the story), the whole lino between St. Petersburg and Izora was carefully searched by numbers of mep ordered to find out what had jerked the czar's tea cup! Every time the czar goes up and down to Peterhof tho steamers have to be decorated, traffic is suspended on the river, and occasionally even the loading of steamers is stopped.—London News. English Yotith and the Army. Walter Besant, hi his very entertain ing and valuable book on “London,” notes an important change in the early part of this century in the feelings-’of the English gentry about trade. Mer cantile life ceased to attract theyounget son* of the. gentry, whe found employ ment in the army or navy, and the dty was thus severed from the counties. \ A Remarkable Watch. : There is s man in this city who is ex hibiting s watch to his friends which he claims has a “crowjnalaker balance, is congested to heat aud cold, and has a criminal confinement.’’—Xewburyport Herald. ■ * • , Cape Colony i# the natural habitat of the largest known speciusof earth wornu It i* a soft, ecaleleaa thing between six and *rv**u feat long, and much rmcaabka •or cosamoa angle worm. , The Saas ta Get Married On. No man baa a right to get married oO less than $1,000 a year. At least that Is the conclusion reached the other day at the cloee of a long discussion on this subject, Of coarse that means if the man ia going to take for his brido a sweet aud lovely young won!an, who while being happily provided for at home has not been overindulged in ex travagances, and who has the sense to know that she enn hardly expect a box at the ahd lots of diamonds, from the young man who lias only so lately firmly established himself in businuas.' And even if the girl is one of those who has known what it is to be out in the world at work for herself, she can hardly be expected to marry a fellow who can not do a* well for her as sho did for her self. She has managed to get alon^ beautifully by herself on fifty or sixty dollars a mouth, with plenty of nice, sen sibly clothes, a trip to the theater every how and then, and every summer, or maybe every other summer, a nice little jaunt away somewhere, to forget the little unpleasantnesses of everyday office life. And the way this money was to go was very, nicely settled too. ' The young man won’t be likely to have a home of his owh to take his win some bride to, and there is the unfailing call of the landlord on the first of the month to be met, and that meeting means twenty dollars sure, and maybe more. Sixty dollars will disappear early in the action by the time the buteher and baker and candlestick maker’s and some other people’s monthly bills have l>een settled; $150 a .year'is placing the estimate at very modest figures for the wearing apparel of each during the year, and whop all this is added up $1,260 is cared [for, and-something mnst be put away for rainy days and doctors’ bills and occasional treats to the theater and the lake, and $1,500 is gone! Still there are others who think they can get along first rate with a good deal loss than this.—-Boston Herald. A Tlionghtl«M Old Gen Hem Ad. It was the nigh1( “rash hour” on the Brooklyn bridge trains. More people were crowded into one of the cars at the New York terminus than had any right to be there without risking suffocation. Through the side entrance to the oar came three young and pretty girls, sv£?pt oo by the tide of humanity. The car was crowded, but that didn’t mat ter.^ In the crash the girls were help- lees, They conMn’t help being pushed into the car, aud an instant later they couldn’t withstand the counterpush which seated one of them, willy nilly, on the knees of an old gentleman. In the jam her two companions were throat against this young woman, and pre vented her from rising. It wa* not un til the train was well on it* trip toward Brook Ijm that the crowd gave way a little and she was enabled to regain her footing. She begged tho old man’s par don sweetly enough, but to her friends she said not a word until the three were safely out of the car and on the platform of the Brooklyn station. Then she freed her mind. , “That’s what I coll an tin polite man,” •he declared. “Whyr* mid one of her companions, ”1 thought bo behaved beautifully. He didn’t say a word." “That’s just the trouble,” snapped the other. “Ho didn't have the grace eved to say, 'Keep your scat, madam.’ "—New York Times.
