In the Spanish-Mexican woman there is -a curious suggestion of something Oriental. There is a sinuous grace of movement, a lazy contentment with surroundings, a perfect confidence in the apparent philosophy of life. Her domestic surroundings are such as she would have them, and she knows no Her ideas in the matter of drees are peculiar. So that her head and the greater part of her face are concealed, it matters little for bust, arms and ankles. In two hundred years she has not forgotten the use of the scarf. It is her indispensable adornment Bonnot and hat are not in her vocabulary; of corsets she is utterly ignorant, and a high-heeled shoe she never saw, and yet this woman is a civilized woman. She affects ribbons, and in the matter of colors has a fearful and wonderful taste. She has a care for her complex ion, and in the earlier hears of the morning may sometimes be seen with her face on crusted with clay.

They are Christians, not thieves, nor cut-throats, nor bandits. Yet they see these things and tacitly approve them, if they do not take part in them. Why is’it and how long will they continue? While thinking those questions over, my mind reverted to the scenes of the war; and an incident at the battle of Cedar Mountain came to mind.

Heads were being blown from their bodies, arms and logs tom from their sockets, and souls sent to one world or the other, all unprepared, and yet I re joiced and congratulated my fellow officers that we were victorious. How could this be? Why was it? It was because we were at war. That one word solved in my mind the problem of the South. The people there were at wan There was a conflict going on. The social and political relations of the pie were not not hftmr There were disturbing elements them, and wMle they existed, or unduly active, there would be conflict Let the causes of the conflict be re moved, and there will be peace, and ultimately harmony and prosperity.” “But,” said the reporter, “we do not see much disposition in the Sonth to manifest a loving temper toward us of the North.” The President mildly retorted “How do you knew ? Yon form your opinions, no doubt, from reading the Ith which, tho or South. I think most of the people in the South, as I know they ore in the North, are more disposed to encourage fraternal, harmonious, social and busi ness relations than the extremists, who, unfortuateiy, too often get control of newspapers, bnt even theee, or most of them, will; come around all right in time. Bolling Back the Tears. Youth was apt to lire entirely in the futon; old age in looking into the past, while middle life was upon the apex and looked both ways. As an old picture of Guido has been brought out fresh into the light by the hand of a skillful artist, who removed from its sur face the accumulated dust and paint of many years, so the preacher wished to roll bock the years in the memoir of his hearers and bring back their early days in vivid recollection. Among the early advantages of his hearer’s childhood had been goal home surroundings. The bad men of to-day had for the most part dipped their heated passions out of.the bmling spring of an unhappy home. The preacher drew a picture off a happy family gathered around the evening fire- side of a city home, sod pointed out sow much there was to be grateful for in such a home in which the child was cared for as no lamb ever hod been. ,qi The first great sorrow that darkened life was referred to, and the re gentleman drew a graphic picture,. agony felt by the parent when the death angel hovered over the crib of a beloved child. The wild prayers to God to spare its life, and the vows uttered with stream ing eyes were brought back to mind. Ah! they had been better men and better women for such an experience. From this the first sorrow, perhaps, the preach er came down to the latest sorrow ex perienced by his people.: It might be financial disaster, it might be ucknees. Well, had those who wero in comfortable circumstances again remembered. to thank God for it? down the St Johsfr river wbeu hf not a gentleman, with whom he fell iriteoanr Ttrsatkm.

In like manner the preacher thought that not the heights of the Church nor the heights of this world were the scene of the greatest pros perity. The soul over wMch flowed the waters of tribulation bore home the largest and richest harvests for time and for eternity.—Bee. De IFiU Tabnage.

Prince Bismarck, whose sympatMes in the present war seem to be entirely with Russia, is a watchful, though silent, observer of every contin gency of the war. An important ser vice has lately been rendered by him to the St Petersburg Cabinet in per mitting Krupp, the famous cannon manufacturer m Essen to sell to Russia, in want of Siege artillery, a number of cannon originally ordered by the Ger man . Government, U the delivery of to the contract, iwas shortly due. Moet of these cannon have, been employed in arming the fort resses on the Baltic, the ordnance of which had been sent to the Danube. Alike favor to Russia is shown by German railway companies, who re turned engines lately received to the manufacturers in order to secure the immediate fulfilment of large orders received from St. Petersburg.

Duration of tho-Present Pope’s —•uiiroK - dT Th&e is, ot bis been till now, a su perstition that tone of the Popes can —4i:—ct Peter and. as farw! to® tory of Papacy canRetraced, no Pope till now has reigned longer than the Apostolic Founder of the Holy See. Pius VI reigned within three or four months of five-and-twenty years; and till the reign of Pins IX this was the nearest approach to the alleged Pontifi cate of Peter. The duration of that is said to have been twenty-five years, two months and seven days. Bnt Pins IX is now in the fifteenth year of his Epis copate, in the thirty-first year of his Pontificate, and in the eighty-fifth year Of his age. He has, with ono or two exceptions, outlived all the Cardinals who took part in his election in the June of 1846; has confuted the old be lief embodied in the word3 Non videbis annos Petri, and is to-day, with one ex ception—that of Queen Victoria^—the oldest reigning sovereign in Europe. Her Majesty is the Pope’s senior as a sovereign by nearly ten years. But with this exception the Pope has seen every throne in Europe change its oc cupant since the triple crown was placed on his brows in St Peter’s, and some of them he has seen refilled more than Justice Asleep.
