■hi Kissim Very Ancient Institution --Different Forms asul Significance of Kisslnu— ShokeRpeore on the ftubjcct—Wotablc Kissers. KissinRistheoldcstol all thcinnrticu- late utterances of affection. The hiss has a history above all others. Men used it to salute the heavenly bodies. A passage in Job, written U. (J. 2130, illus trates this. It passed to the Greeks, and from them to the Homans, and denoted humility and homage. In Ilomer, Priam is represented as kissing the hands and embracing the knees of Achilles while he sues for the dead body of Hector. Examples are numerous of this kind of kiss. The custom of kissing was unknown in Eugland till 449, when the Princess Rowcna, daughter of liengist, king of Friesland, pressed her lips to the cup and saluted Vortigern with a “ little kiss." From a passnge in “Evelyn’s Uiary,” it appears that men kissed each other in the stiects oflxmdon toward the end of the seventeenth century. The Spanish conquerors found it the custom preva lent in the new world. The kiss of peace was anciently given by the faith ful one to the other, n9 a testimony of cordial love and affection. After the priest had given the salutation of peace, the deacon ordered tho people to salute one another with a holy kiss. It was also given before the Eucharist until the twelfth or thirteenth century. Toward the end of the third century the kisB of peace was given in baptism. Henry If. of England refused to give Beckct the kiss of peace, at Hint timo the usual pledge ol reconciliation, in 1109. Shakespeare was very fond of kissing. You cannot read a single play of the "great master” without nn abundanco of talk about lips and kisses. Tho fol lowing is taken from one of his very deep tragedies: “IIo kissed—tho last ol many double kisses.” “We'll o’on but kiss Octavio, and wo'll fol low.” " Thoro is gold, and boro My bluest veins to kiss; a bund that kings Have lipp’d, and trembling kissing.” “ Givo tno a kiss—o’on this repays mo.” " I shall roturn oncu more to kiss those lips. This is a soldier's kiss.” Whnt Sorts of invalids Had Bettor Go to Colorado* A corespondent, writing from Colora do Springs to the Louisville Courier- Journal, says: Persons sullcring from any of tho following diseas s will he greatly relieved, if not permanenth cured, by a sojourn here, especially if they will subject themselves to medical treatment suitable to the climate and their changed condition. The iron and soda springs at Mani’.ou, five miles distant, witli which there is almost hourly communication by rail or coach, will prove reliable adjuncts in the good work “Cotnmond unto his lips thy luvoring bund; Kiss it, my warrior." “Como, then, and (oko tho best warmth ol my lips.” And in Cymbeline ho says: “ Or ere I could Givo him that parting kina, which l had sut Betwixt two charming words, ootnos in my father, And, liko the tyrannous breathing ol tho north, Shakes all onr buds from growing.” KISSING NOT I.O0AL. Kisses are not loenlized. Tho lips though generally associated with tho idea of kissing, nro not the sole recipi ents. The forehoad, checks and hands all come in for a share of tho honor. And each one 1ms in Iho rite a peculiar value and signillcanco of its own. Kisses on tho ci.cok express regard, and nru closely allied to kisseo on tho fore head, which signify blessing nnd esteem. ich employo 1 by aged pco- They arc mud pic. They possess, too, the great advan tage of being non-comn.ittal. Then there is the kiss of custom, the kiss of duty, ‘he pre-con jugal kiss, tho lillal kiss, the playful kiss, tho kiss of be trayal and the kiss of passionate dovo- tion and intense temperament: " A man hath givouull earthly bliss, And all his worldly worth lor thii— To wuMo his wholu heart in ono kiss." The llev. Sidney Smith snid: “Wo are in favor of a curtain amount of sliy- losh when a kiss is proposed, but it should not be too long, and when Hie fair one gives it, let it bo administered witli warmth and energy—let the,o be a soul in it. If she closo her eyes and sigh immediately after it, the effect is greater. Shoslruld ho careful not to slobber a kiss, but give it as a humming bird runs his bill into a honeysuckle— deep but delicate. Tliero is much vir tue in a kiss when well delivered . Wo liavo the memory of ono wo received in our mouth which lasted forty years, and we bolievo it will bo one of the last things we shall 1 (link of when we die.” . Gilbert Stuart, the portrait painter, is said to have met a lady in the streets of Boston who necosted Lfm with: “Ah, Mr. Stuart, I have just seen your like ness nnd kissed it, because ft was so Much like you.” “And did it kisr you in return?” “Why.no.” “ Then,” said 'be gallant painter, “it was not like me." When Cliaries II. was making his triumphal progress through England, certain country ladies who were pre sented to him, instead of kissing the royal hand, in their simplicity held up their pretty lips to be kissed by the king —a blunder no one would more willingly excuse than tho lover of pretty Neil Gwyn. Georginna, duehess ol Devonshire, gave Steel, the butcher, a kiss for Ins vote nearly a century since and another equally beautiful woman! Jane, duchess of Gordon, recruited her regiment in a similar manner. A kiss from his mother made Benjamin West nn artist. ‘Kiss me, mol her, before I sleep! How simple a boon, yet how soothing to the little suppliant is that soft, gentle kiss. The little head sinks conteutedly on the pillow, "for" alTT land happincsswithin. The bright peace nnd happincsswithin llt eyes close, and the rosy lips are reveling in the bright and sunny dreams of in nocence. Yes, kiss mother, for that good-night ki3s will linger in flic mem ory when tlie giver lies moldering in the grave. The memory of a gentle mother's kiss tins clioered many a lonely wander er s pilgrimage, and lias been the beacon-light to illuminate his desolate Heart; life has many a stormy billow to cross, many arugged path to climb, and we know not what is in store for the little one so sweetly slumbering, with no marring care to disturb its peaceful dreams.

Everywhere upon the coasts of Eastern New England may be found, ten feet below the water mark, the lichen known iia carrageen—the “Irish moss” of com merce.

Three months’ residence has nearly entirely relieved hor. I had determined to advise no one to come here, either for health or fortune, but the certainty of finding relief from bronchitis and asthma is so clearly mani fested in the ease of Mrs. C. and others that for i nee I break my resolution, and urgo nil persons afflicted with these distempers to come. Insomnious persons will be greatly bonetited by this climate. I e innot give the rcastn. Some attribute it to an unusual amount of ozone in the at mosphere. I speak from personal ex perience on this subject. In no other land have I ever found sleep so gentle, so sweet, and so rofreshinr-. The sleep of adults is ns profound and en'm at that of infants, nnd there no is courting of the charmir. She comes unsought, liko a good angel, and spreads her oblivious mantle ovir wearied soul and body, nnd you know nothing till next morn ing, when your llrst perception will bo tho unspenknblo glory of Cheyenne as you gaze on its purple sides through the open window. There is another class that may rely on finding relief—tho obese. If there lie any unhappy wight who desires to lose some of his avoirdupois, let him come. Opo singular fenture in our population is. there nre no fat people hero. If tho 1’rineo of Wales lied only known tills in his day, he would have avoided Beau Brummel’s heartless in quiry.

In tho case of consumption in nn ad vanced stage, however, this much can bo siid: The patient’s pathway to the tomb is smoothed by an almost utter absence of physical suffering. Death generally ensues suddenly and without pain, life simply going out like a candle. About Presidents* T.io United States have had ninoteen Presidents, fourofthem of Irish descent —Jackson Tyler, l’iorec, and Bu chanan. Tho President holds his office for four years, lie must bo a native of tho United States, and must liavo attained the ago of thirty-live years. In most eases, Irom 178U to 1824, tho President was elected by tho legislatures of tho different Stntes. The original provisions of tho Consti tution provided thnt tho person liaving tho next highest number of votes cast for President should become Vice-Presi dent. No Roman Catholic lias ever occupied tho Presidential chair. All the other prominent religious denominations have open represented. Grant and Hayes are Methodists. William Henry Harrison, Zachary ray lor and Abraham Lincoln were the only Presidents who riled wliilo inofllco. Harrison assumed his office March 4, 1811, and died tho next month. Vice- President John Tyler succeeded him. Taylor served until July 5, 1859; Mil- bird Fillmore served out the term. Un win was shot on the fifteenth of April, 1805, Andrew Johnson taking his place.

There is no use trying to get a hen to iuit setting when she has got her mind lair ly made up that setting is her best hold. A New Jersey woman put her head together to deviso a means of dis couraging a hen from setting. She got a east-iron egg, heated it red-hot and put it in a nest under a hen. For a moment tho hen seemed to feel that hor situation was anything but pleasant, but liko tho boy that stood on the burning deck, whence all but him had lied, the lien concluded Hint she could not go, so she dosed her eyes, shut her teeth to gether fiimly and with an expression of resignation she went on hatching the red-hot cast-iron egg. The lady who bad placed this infernal machine under the hen was out in tho garden picking a mess of potato bugs, when she thought she smelt feathers burning, and drop ping her basin of bugs she strode to the barn and found that the red-hot ogg had set lire to the nest, burned the hen to a skeleton and was getting into the hay- Jolt. She yelled fire and looked around for something wet to throw on t he lire, but all she could find that was wet was a load of pine kindling-wood that a coal- dealer had sent to the house, and not having time to run the kindling-wood through a clothes-wringer, she faiuteu away and the barn and hen were de stroyed. There is no use trying to teac h a hen anythmg about setting.—Mil waukee Sun. What a Rock Did. An enormous piece of rock recently fell in a narrow canon between Rock Creek and Chamberlain flats, in Clicik- i.tat county, W. T. It came from a ledge above a road, and nearly crushed a traveler and his horse. It then went over the precipice, flying through the air a distance of some 1,700 feet, went through a band of stray sheep below, numbering about seventy-five, killing outright about forty-five of them, while the rest were hurled through the air against the surrounding rocks, and maimed or injured. Mark Twain on tho Alps Mark Twain gets off' the following in his new book, “A Tramp Abroad:” We were at the Rigi-Kulm hotel the Alps. It was night. We waited ’o see the sun rise in the morning. We curled up in the clammy beds and went to sleep without rocking We were so sodden with fatigue that we never stirred nor turned over till the booming blast of tlie Alpine horn aroused us. It may well he imagined that we did not lose anytime. We snatched on a few odds and ends of clothing, cocooned our selves in the proper red blankets, and plunged along the liniis and out into the whistling wind bareheaded. We siw a tall wooden scaffolding on the very peak of the summit, a hundred yards away, nnd made for it. We rushed up the stairs to the top of this scaffolding, and stood thoro above the vast out-lying world, with hair flying nnd ruddy blank ets swaying and cracking in tbe fierce breezes. "Fifteen minutes too late, at last!” said Harris, in a vexed voice. “The sun is clear above tho horizon.” “No matter,” I said, “it is a most magnificent spectacle, and we will see it do ‘ the rest of its rising, anyway.” In a moment we wero deeply ab sorbed in tho marvel before us, dea l to everything else. The great cloud-barred disk of the sun stood just above a limit less expanse of tossing wliite-caps, so to speak—a billowy chaos of massy moun tain domes and peaks draped in iraper ishahlc snow, and flooded witli nn opaline glory of changing and dissolving splendors, while through rifts in a black do cloud-bank above the sun radiating lances of diamond Just shot to the zenith. Thcclovcn valleys oftlio lower world swam in a tinted mist which veiled the ruggednessof their erngs, and ribs, nnd ragged forests, nnd turned all the forbidding region into n soft, and rich, nnd sensuous paradise. We could not speak. Wecould linrdly lid breathe. We could only gazo in drunken ccstacy nnd drink it in. Presently Ilp.r ris exclaimed: “Why, it’s going down!” Perfectly true. We had missed the morning horn-blow, and slept all day. This is certainly very amusing, though tolerably "sleep,” but tho per formance the next morning got away witli it by a large majority. ’1 bus: The next morning, however, we were up before daylight. Fully clothed and wrapped in blankets we huddled our selves up to ttie window with lighted pipes nnd fell into a chat, while wc waited in exceeding comfort to see how an Alpine sunrise was going to look by By-and- candlo light. By-ana-bye a delicate, spiritual sort of effulgence spread itself by imperceptible degrees over the lofti est altitudes of tho snowy wastes—but there tho effort seemed to stop. I stiid, presently: “There's a hitch about this sunris r somewhere. It doosn’t seem to go. Wlmt do you reckon is tho matter with itP “I don’t know It appears to hang fire somewhere, I never saw a sunrise net like that before. Can it bo that the hotel i9 playing anything on us P” “ Of course not. The hotel has merely a property interest in tho sun, nnd lins nothing to do with the management of it. It is a precarious kind of property, too; * would prob- a sue,cession of total eclipses woul ably ruin this tavern. Now, wlmt can bo the matter with this sunrise P” Harris jumped up and said. “ I’ve got it! 1 know what’s tho maltor witli It ! Wc’vo been looking at tho place where the sun set last night 1” It was "perfectly true,” nnd when they turned around to look tho other way they were too late, the sun was already up. Value of a Doctor’s Services. I win called at midnight to visit, a gentleman who had just returned from a late dinner, ,vhore ho had succcoded by hasty eating in lodging a large fish bone in his throat. I provided myself witli an emetic, a pnir of oasopliagus mafia de- forcops and other paraplicr signed to give him relief, and hurriedly repaired to his room. I found him pae ing up and down the floor with a look of inlonso distress and anxiety, ocea- siona’ly running his lingers down his throat and gagging. He told me in tones of despair that ho thought it was all up with bin-, but bogged mo, if the least glimmer of liopo remained, to proceed at once in my efforts to relieve him. He extrnvngantly declared,in t he generosity of spirit begot by tho vividness of his fears, that liu would give $1,000,009 to have that fishbone removed. I assured him tlmtsuehcaseswcre frequent,and or dinarily notaUendcd with much danger, before pioceeding to carry out measures for relief. IIis lears underwent same diminution on the strength of this, and he then declared that $50,000 would no more than repay the skill and art re quired to extricate the unwelcome in truder. I smiled, and proceeded to in troduce the forceps, but after several attempts failed to grasp the bone. His fears again induced him to mention n fabulous sum as the mred of the service that would expel the object of his ter rors. I then gave him the emetic, its depressing effect causing his generosity to rise again, barometric-like, to a very high pressure, in a little while the emetic disburdened him of tho greater part of his dinner, nnd witli it up came the fishbone. IIo gave a sigh and look of relief, nnd, solemnly looking toward me, said," Doctor, 1 wouldn’t have that thing in my throat again for $5!" My fee eventually resolved itself into the “ valuable experience ’ that the occa sion afforded mo. — New York Medical Ilecord. Jealousy of Ants. The jealousy of ants toward intruders ell is well known. Strange queens intro duced into their nests'are very often ruthlessly slaughtered, yet it is believed that communities must occasionally adopt queens. With the view of testing how far a temporary acquaintance might assaugo dislike and passion, Sir John Lubbock introduced a queen, protected by a wire cage, into a quoenless nest, but when the ca/ro was removed some days alter the queen was at once at tacked. Nevertheless, Mr. McCook has observed the adoption by a colony of a fertile queen. Such difference in con duct, Sir John suggests, may be due lo the fact that his own ants were living in a republic, for it is affirmed that bees long withouta queen are slrongly averse to accepting another. Furthermore, if a few ants from a strangs nest aro put with a queen they do not attack her, and if other ants are by degrees ad dee the throne is ultimately secured.

Here is a pen-and-ink sketch of nn American girl, which is imere tinsr as showing how a Yankee girl se ms to French eves: Stylish to the backbone Independent ns independent can hr, but very pure. Is devoted to pleasure, dress, spending money; shows her moral nature nude, just as it is. so as to de ceive nobody. Flirts all winter with this or that ono and dismisses him in tho spring, when she instantly catches another. Goes out alone. Travels alone. When the fancy strikes her she travels with a gentleman friend or walks anywhere with him; puts bound less confidence in him; conjugal inti macy seems to exist between them. She lets him tell what he feels, talk of love from morning till night, but Bhe never gives him permission to kiss so much as her hand. He may say any thing; lie shall do nothing. She is restless, she gives heart nnd soul to amusement before she mairie-. After marriage she is a molher annually, is all day, hears nil night nothing alone exeopt discussions about pntent ma chinery, uncxplosive petroleum, cliomi- oal manures. She then will let her daughters enjoy the liberty she used without grave abuse. As notnimr seri ous happened to her, why should Fanny, Mary, Jenny be loss strong and less ndruil than their mother? She origi nates French fashions. Parisian women detest her. Provincial women despise tier. Men of all countries adore her but will not marry her unless she lms nn immense fortune. Her hair is ver milion, paler limn golder hair; her black eyes nro bold nnd frank, she spreads her self in a carriage os if she were in a ham mock, the natural and thoughtless pos ture of her passion for luxurious ease. When she walks she moves briskly and throws every glnnce right and left. Gives many of her thoughts to herself and few of them to anybody else. She is a wild plant put in a hot-house; feels cramped in Europe, nnd pushes hor branches through the panes without the least hoed of the frail plants that vege tate on all sides of her. Werosh" bet ter understood, were she criticised less, she would bo ostoemoi at her true value. Fashion Notes, Muslin dresses aro made with sur plice waists, shirred on tho shoulders and at the waist.

How a Murder Was Discovered. From a private letter by Sir J. U. Gefroy, lately governor of the Bermuda isl n ls, Professor Moseley extracts an account of a singular discovery ot mur der. In the autumn of 1878, a Bermuda woman suddenly disappeared. Her husband was suspected of liaving caustd her death, but as no trace of the missing wotnnn could be found, there seemed li lie probability that the crime would be detected. A week nffer the disap- pea mice, however, some Somerville boatmen, looking out toward the sen, were si: uek l y observing in the LongB iy channel, the surface of which wes ruf fled with a slight breeze, a long streak of calm, such as a cask of oil usually diffuses around it when in water. Ihe feverish anxiety about the mi-sing woman suggested some strange connec tion between this singular calm and the mode of her disappearance; and the spot being found to lemain. severa’ men visited the place in a boat two or three days after it was llrst noticed, and drag ged tho bottom of the channel. The re sult was the finding of the nearly flesh- l'ts skeleton to which a heavy weight was fastened. Some bits of clothing proved the identity of the body. The husband was a fisherman, and Long Bay channel being a favorite fishing ground, he calculated, truly enough, that tho fish would very soon destroy all means of identification; but it never entered his head that as they did so, their ravages, combined with'the pro cess of decomposition, would set free the oily matter which was to write the traces of his ciime on the surface of the water. The husband was found guilty and executed. Professor Mosely be lieves this case must be of unusual in- tirest to medical men. A Sqnaw Burned Alive. The Eureka (Nev.) thnlinel says: From a party just in from Prospect mountain we learn that one week ago last c aturday, late at night, there was a terrible din in the vicinity of the Idaho mine, oceasionei by Hie whooping, yell ing, dancing savages.

The other day Mr. Thomas happened to pass the spot where the remnants of the lire were still smoking nnd fragments of the barbecue wero scattered around. A close inspection showed that the fire had been built to “ wipe out" a squaw. The skull, fragments of bones nnd a brass finger-ring were picked up. Mr. II.
