The “beyess” sits on a sofa; with crossed legs, and salutes us ceremoniously as we enter. Sheis a. l'at'eld woman with an in- significant face, by the side of which her short hair falls over the ears. Neck, arms, legs and fingers are literally covered with costly jewellery, bracelets and rings. She wears a sort of blouse of red silk, and white linen pantaloons, which get tighter near the feet and end in silk socks. All doors and recesses are occupied bywomen of the harem Beauty vs. TalentmThc Women of Tums â€"-0!1g1n of “Lady.” The titln of “lady” is derived from the Saxon bled-diam, contracted into lafdy, and then into lady. Laf, or him", or loaf, means food or bread, and diau means to serve, so thatthe :itle“1ady,” means bread-server. The feudal lord supplied the food for the guests, or the poor, and the Indies used to carve and distribute it. in the plantation of Oakfield, Aroostock county, Me, there is a girl who possesses the faculty of‘spelling difficult words back- ward without hesitation. Her name is Hat- tie M. Drew, just past her twelfth birthday and residing with her parents in Oakfield, who are people of moderate education, liv- ing upon a farm in a rural community. While this little girl is bright and smart as the average of her mates, she never attract- ed any particular attention until, a little more than a year ago, it was aceidentallyv discovered that she possessed the singular gift of spelling any word with which she was acquainted backward and without hesitation. At a spelling match recently held in the school which she attends, without any warning, she stood before the audience for some ten minutes, spelling words selected at random, some for their difiiculty of com- bination, but without any previous know- ledge of what they were to be, rapidly and correctly, except one or two which she could not spell in the proper way, and when prompted in the correct spelling would im- mediately reverse it. Among the words which she spelled were these :Galaxy, syzy- gy, astronomy, phonography, difficulty, at- tendance, indivisible, etc, and many other words of equal length and difficulty. All of these were spelled as rapidly as the eye could follow, without a. single misplacement of a letter. Has any other person without any training been able to do this or similar feats? In addition, it may be said, upon the testimony of the girl, that “she can see the words in her mind and knows no reason why she should not read the letters back- wards as in the usual way.” \"w omen are kept much stricter at Tunis rays Baron \‘011 \Vartegg, the husband of Minnie Hank, in a book on the east, than in Egypt or Turkey. Moorish ladies of high standing never show themselves in the street; and there are thousands of them whose only walk during their whole lives has been from the house of their parents to that of their husband. Poor women have to go out to make their purchases, and also to go to public baths, as they have none in their own houses ; hut they are _ veiled to such adegree, and enveloped in so many shawls, that you can scarcely see the tips of their fingers. The women of the middle classes also wear a dark, heavy silk hand- kerchief, and you only see their feet clothed in little slippers, either cmhroidercd with gold or of patent leather, and perhaps a littlebit of the calf, dresed in a snow- white stocking, ornamented with silver or golden Clasps, which clink at every step like spurs. Woe be to the European who, in the presence of men, were to stare at a. Moorish woman or aecost her ! The Moors are, both in respect of their religion and the women, the greatest fanatics; and to pursue a woman, or to enter a mosque, may cost one’s life to this day. The next prince who ascends a throne anywhere will have his praises and qualities hynmed on the European wires, but if he were an Apollo 01' a Jove, the bulletin-mak- ers would feel instinctively that; to say so would be regarded not as an adultation but ué ridi "ale.

Let anyone of the thousand cynics now lounging in London ask himself Whether an English prince who madea. mesalliunce for money or for beauty would be sooner for- given, or whether the love match or Nu.- poleon III. was not one main causu of that popularity with English women which outs lasted everything but his surrender.

In Egypt its cultus has existed for ages before our ancestors dream- ed of payingit that species of worship which at present appears to connect it with the tutelary genius of the hearth. \‘V e have the authority of Herodotus for the fact that when a cat died in an Egyptian home the members of the bereaved tamin shaved off their eyebrows, and that of Diodorus for the touching statement that although Egyptians have been known to eat their fellow-crea- tures during famines, no instance of cat- eating was ever heard of. If an Egyptian should happen to find a (lead cat, says the Sicilian historian, he was careful not to ap- proach it closely, for fear of beingsuspccted of its murder. Standing at a distance, he made the sad loss known by cries of distress. During conflagrations, according to Herod- otus, the Egyptian spectators allowed the flames to rage unchecked, devoting their at- tention to saving,y the cats belonging to the burning houses. A Roman happened one day to kill a cat by accident. The melan- choly event took place at a time when the Egyptian Government was very anxious to conciliatc Rome. But in spite of the exer- tions of the King and his Ministers the mob broke into the ltoman’s dwelling and inten- tionally did to him what he had accidentally done to the cat. Of this act of popular vengeance Diodorus says he was a spectator. According to Lenormant, the cat does not appear on Egyptian sculptures earlier than the twelfth dynasty (202‘) B.C.,) and there- fore the credit of its domestication is due to the inhabitants of the Upper Nile} That process, remarks Hehn, must have taken a long time, but it was thoroughly successful in the end. The domestic cat very rarely deserts civilization in favor of savage free- dom, its charactcrolfering in this respect a strong contrast to that of its fellow Orient- al, the gypsy. How the tame cat made its way into Europe remains uncertain, al- though it is reported to have travelled from Egypt by way of Cyprus. The period of its arrival, also, is shrouded in mystery. It does not seem to have been known in classic times, and the early centuries of our era appear to have been unaware of its existence. In so catless a period the arrival of such a beneflcent beast as that which has kept \Vhittington’s memory green might well be hailed with acclamation. It is easy to be- lieve that the progress of the cat was rapid when it had once shown itself. Silently but irremstiblyit seems to have subjugated the European hearth. It is terrible to think ofhow much pleasure as well as profit the world would have, been deprived if the cat’s career had been out prematurely short. Most fortunate Was it, as Helm remarks, that its introduction preceded those epochs in which its associations with idolatry might have caused it to fall a. victim to the fanaticism of Islam or the asceticism of Christianity. â€"’1’he Nineteenth Century. who eye curiously'the toilets and manners of the European ladies. At last permission is asked to see the bedroom. The “beyess” rises, crosses her hands on her back, and walks carelessly toward a. room at the back part cf the drawing-room. The bedroom which we enter is furnished quite in the European style. A fourâ€"poster of palisander wood, a chest of drawers with large looking glass, and. (asy chairs. On the wall hangs a life-S'ze portrait of the hey, her consort, and we hasten to congratulate her on his beauty. “01), ycs,” she says, “he is hand- some.

Any young man is willing to feel lonely simply for the sake of being an object; of pity to a kind-hearted young girl. Annie was 6 years old, and was going to school with a. sister of 9. One afternoon, when school was near its close, her uncle came by and proposed to carry them home.

But few have ever carried their testamentary caprice so far as the testator in a case before Mr. Justice Pearson in London a few days smce, The Rev. Mr. \Vatson gives a very curious story in illustration of this animal’s wonder- ful long memory of a wrong suffered. One of those pests of society,“a practical-joker,” visited a caravan in a west of England fair and tried his stupid tricks upon an elephant there. Hm, first doled out to it, one by one, some gingerbread nuts, and when the grate ful animal was thrown off its guard he sud- denly proffered it a large parcel wrapped in paper. The unsuspicious creature accepted and swallowed the lump, but immediately began to exhibit signs of intense sulleriug, and snatching up a, bucket handed it to the keeper for water. This being given to it, it eagerly swallowed quantities of the fluid. “Ha I" cried the delighted joker, “I guess those nuts were a trifle hot, old fellow.” “You had better be off,” exclaimed the keeper, “unless you wish the bucket at your head.” The fool took the hint only just in time, for the enraged animal, having finish- ed the sixth bucketful, hurled the bucket alter its tormentor with such force that had he lingered a moment longer his life might have been forfeited. The affair had not, however, yet concluded. The following year the show revisited the same town, and the foolish joker, like men of his genus, unable to profit by experience, thought to repeat the stupid trick on the elephant. He took two lots ofnuts into the show with himâ€" sweet nuts in one pocket and hot in the other. The elephant had not forgotten the jest played upon him, and therefore accept- ed the cakes very cautiously. At last the joker proffered a hot one ; but no sooner had the injured creature discovered its pungency than it seized hold of its prosecutor by the coat-tails, hoisted him up by them, and held him until they gave way, when he fell to the ground. The elephant now inspected the severed coat-tails, which, after he had dis- covered and eaten all the sweet nuts, he tore to rags and flung after their discomfitcd owner. ~C/zambers’ Journal.

So great has been Dr. Malcolm’s success in the cure of Throat and Lung Diseases, even in the very ad- vanced stages, that_many others have tried to imitate his system of treatment ; but as Inhalation is the only method of adminis- tering the remedies, it is unnecessary to re- mind the public that it is only by a long and extensive experience in the various forms of those diseases and the particular remedies adapted to each peculiarity of those diseases that the greatest results may lte ob‘ tained.
