The colored people of Augusta are doing a good deal of good by forming themselves into societies for mutual aid in cases of sick ness and death, which is very commendable, and illustrates how much good can lo ac complished by unitod effort in relieving | those who are destitute by a small monthly outlay.

One. the blue oat, stands about 8 1-2 feet high, and is well headed out, while the other, the Texas rust proof oat, is only about 18 inches high, and is in other ways comparatively deficient. The oats were sown on tho same day, on the same kind of ground, and have laid the same treatment. The fact has been proven to Mr. Smith’s satisfaction that the blue oat will thrive on far less moisture than any other, and in every respect it seems equal to the Texas rust-proof. Last Sunday a ground rattlesnake was found in an organ at the residence of Mrs. K. Amerson in northwest Browneville.

Richard Mansfield has perhaps gained much of his reputation as an actor from his careful attention to detail. For instance, Mr. Mansfield is a man not above the medium height, and yet it has frequently been re marked by those who have never seen him on the stage, that “Prince Karl” must be quite tall. “I am glad to hear that,’’said he the other day, when an observation of this nature was repeated to him, “for I try to act tall. What do I mean! I’ll tell you. Haven’t you ever noticed that tall men carry themselves in an entirely different manner toshort men* Well, it is so, I can assure you. There are trick* of gesture, etc., common to ail men above the ordinary height, and others common to those below it. An actor, if he is observant, can easily copy these, and I maintain that one can act ‘tall,’ or ‘short,’ or ‘stout,’ or ‘dim,’ just as easily as one can mimic a Frenchman or a German when nlaying a character part.” Mr. Mansfieia’s interlocutor praised his skill in the imitations which be introduce* into “Prince Karl.” "Ob, any one can do those,” said Mansfield; “I only wonder when I hear people praise them. They are not acting, but only mimicry, and there is a long stretch of country between the two. I remember ns a boy X used ty dot be violoncello business and was roundly scolded bv my mother. I think I did it then much tetter than l do now, but she wonld get very angry and tell me not to be foolish.” Afterward tho talk turned on acting proper, and Mansfield spoke of the effect to be gained with an audience by the simplest of moans. “Keep a serious face, gain the attention of your audience,” said he; “never let them think you see the joke yourself and you are all right. It is the conscious smirk that ruins many a comedy point. I remember once in my early days on the stage I consid ered myself slighted, as youngstei-s will, and oldsters too, for that matter, by being cast in a trifling part. I determined, rather meanly, therefore, to take the scene from two comedians, one of whom had a part I thought I should have ixsen cast for. I was on the stage with them, but hud not a word to say through a long scene. Accordingly I took a big pin and so fixed it that it was clearly seen by the audience, who also saw that when I sat down t should bo impaled. First one caught on and then another, till finally a titter ran through the house. The comedians worked away wondering why tho audience had tittered in the wrong place. I walked about apparently unconscious of my danger. The titter grew into a snicker and then died into a breathless silence. The question evidently was, 'Will he sit down *’ Every movement was watched and the comedians bravely worked ou for the laugh that never came. Their scone had just ended and I was just sitting down with every soul iu the audience breathlessly watching me when 1 quietly but with marked deliberation ex tracted the pin and sat down amid a roar of laughter just too late for the oomodians to imagine ft was due to them. They couldn't understand it, but I did and so did the man ager, who was in front. I got two weeks’ notice.” An Imperial Lecturer. The Empress Haru-ko of Japan has, as is well known, greatly interested herself of late years in tin* question of dress reform, (juite recently, write* a correspondent of the < hicago Times, she delivered a lecture upon this subject in Tokio; mid seeing that Em presses <lo not often give lectures, the follow ing translation of what her majesty said may be of general interest. It should lx' premised that. “sittingetiquette”and "stand ing etiquette" are terms that have been adopted to doxenlx* the olrl and new regula tions for t he conduct of ladies at tho court of the Emperor Mut-s-Hito: “In ancient times,” said the Empress, “the dress of Japanese ladies consisted of an upper garment or wrapper and a petticoat. During the reforming reign of tho Emperor Kotoko, a decree was published prescribing one hard-and-fast fashion of court costumes for women. A similar decree was issued by the EmixirorVto. Subsequently, under the Emperor Gmisho, Indies were forbidden to fold the left sides of their wrappers over the right sides. Still later, under the Emperor Bhomu, a docreo was promulgated through the empire directing all women to adopt, a newly devised style of clothing. This was to consist of a wrapper and a petticoat, Knrno ladiea went so fur as to wear two petticoats; but thin practice was speedily put down by law. And thus, all through the middle ages our women, in town as well as in the country, used to wear h single petticoat, which was scarlet in color. W hen dissensions about, the succession broke out in the imperial family and led to the formation of rival oourts in die North and South tiio country tev.une for a long period the scene of continuous commotions; and. owing to the lamentable cirpiunstnneeN of tile rime, our women were at Inst obliged to content themselves with nothing more than a wrapper. After the conclusion of the trouble* they continued, in pursuance of the habit, that, had thus been forced upon them, to dispense with the petticoat and to wear only a wrapper, *o that tho lower limbs were ]<artially uncovered.
