Lippin cott Company, Philadelphia. Cloth 81. The author, in his introductory remarks, says: “A reader whoso concern shall carry him into the substance of the volume in hand will quickly discover that Spiritualism is a matter about which, in the estimation of the writer, a great deal is to be said. He will assuredly quickly see that there is but one entirely satisfactory way of learning the subject., at lecst feeling it, and that way lies with cultivation of spiritual."

What a Truthful Hunter Saw and What It Was. From the New York Star. “I was over on Big Sturgeon Lake look ing for a duck or a goose dinner, when, just as I paddled my skiff around a point, I saw a deer’s horns sticking out of the water near the shore. I thought it was a deer swimming across the lake, and, without stopping to look, blazed away. I heard some of my shot strike the horiis, and thon saw them go under. I thought that singular, but after awhile I saw them roll up again half a mile off. The idea of a deer swimming that far under water was a paralyzer. I rowed out cau tiously to the horns, and found that they were sticking out of a sturgeon’s mouth. He had swallowed the deer, but had not room for the horns, and was waiting until he should have digested the animal so he could spit out the horns. I recognized the sturgeon at once as ‘Gros \ outre’ a fish l had known ever since I took my claim on the island. He was named by a priest who had been a missionary among the Indians in Montana. The fish recognized me, and his eye twinkled as he rolled up to have a look at me, and his silvery sides sort of rippled, as if he was trying to laugh. He evidently realized the ridiculousness of his situation, but he probably found it was uncomfortable swim ming around with the horns under water, and so turned over to rest. Noyr, the gas tric juices of the sturgeon are powerful. I have known them to dissolve™ ax which a khircpon had swallowed - “(five us one story at a time,” exclaimed several of the listeners. “Well, as I was going to say, it would not take the sturgeon long to digest the horns of a deer, but I did not like to see an old acquaintance in such a fix, so I cut the horm off. a<l bk*l if old ‘tiros Ventre’ didn’t swim out a piece and rise up about five feet clean out of the water and make me one of the gracefullest bows you ever saw, and then he leaped h.s whole length out of the water and came down with a splash which sent the npplea circling to the fir'best shores of Big Sturgeon Lake. THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, JUNE 27. 1887. COURTSHIP IN RUSSIA. HOW BEAUTIFUL SLAVONIC GIRLS ARE WOOED AND WON. The Lover Smothers the Mother With Soft Words and Pretty Presents and Finally Wins —The Coy Maiden’s Charming Hypocrisy. From the New York Star. I will tell you a story of lovemaking of Russia, of which I will endeavor to draw a pen pictnre and show my American readers that the young men and maidens of my country are in no wise different from those of other and more favored climes. They are, perhaps, a little more demonstrative, less given to concealing the feelings of the heart, and less inclined to regard money as a necessary consideration in the settlement of heart affairs. When a Russian girl loves, it is with her whole heart; her love sur mounts all obstacles. I speak from ex perience. It is the custom of the Russian young folks to meet together by appointment in the long, stormy winter evenings, selecting the house of each one in turn. Boys and girls come gayly dressed in holiday attire, the latter carrying their looms aiid linen thread, which they are supposed to convert into the much prized linen. These pretty young misses pass the hours in idle gossip until the time approaches for the arrival of the sterner sex, when each one hies to her loom and begins to work most earnestly, by which means they seek to impress on the minds of their lovers their capabilities of becoming good wives and bousekeeriers; but this feigned industry does not last long, for when the male mem bers have entered the chamber work is sus pended, and pleasure begins by the young men inviting their fair friends to join them in forming a circle. This done, they all join in singing, after which one of the girls selects her young gentleman (moi muoi). my love, as she calls him, and leads him into the middle of the circle, then walks back and forth, chanting a love song, in which the rest of the guests join. In the song usually selected she tells of the beauty of the lover she has chosen; how much she loves him; how she would leave homo and parents, brothers, sisters and friends, and follow him tho wide world over. As the song runs, she would follow him across the seven oceans, or over seven high mountains, and rest beneath their shadow, where she could enjoy her happi ness uudisturbed. So in turn each girl selects her moi miloi and leads him into the circle, when the same love chanting is repeated until all the girls have made their choice. Next in turn come the young men, who each select a partner and go through the same performance, the whole affair terminating with the dancing of the Russian Cossack. At the conclusion of this dance each young peasant escorts the object of his choice to her home. At these gatherings they are as free as the birds of the air, and take for their mate whomsoever they will, without any regard to a third party. When the time arrives that a formal declaration is to be made, the youth, accompanied by some member or members of his family, who are supposed to aid materially in ob taining the parents’ consent, proceed to the home of his ladylove and there make known his wishes to the father and mother. The mother, not at all surprised, usually reads the young man a long lecture on the duties and burdens of married life, bewail ing all the ills aiid speaking of few of the blessings, and ends by declaring her daugh ter is too young to marry yet, too young to be given over to the cruel tyranny of an exacting husband. She prefers to see her as free and happy as the birds of her native woods. All this is but a custom which must be observed, so fearful are they that the young man might sup pose his bride too easily won. The suitor, further to conciliate the mother, now be gins to lavish all kinds of presents on her, according to his means, at the stuno time telling her how inuoh he love 6 her daughter andhow happy he will make her darling. A glowing description of how bright he will make her future life follows. To his vivid imagination everything is rainbow-hued, and in a language so poetical as the Russian it is grand and impressive to hear this suitor of the daughter’s haud pour forth his torrent of eloquent words. The mother listens attentively to the burning, soul-stirring language, apparently weighing in deep thought all lie says, look ing occasionally at the presents presented to her, and which 1 much fear are the key which unlocks the door of her heart. She finally gives a rather unwilling assent, with thejproviso if the father itfwilling. This is a needless precaution on her part, for as a rule the father is only too willing to ease him self of the burden of a daughter’s support. But you will naturally ask where tho poor victim is all the time. Why! in the next room, of course, where every word ut tered by her lover falls like sweet music on her ears. She understands her mother's tac tics, and yet it must be with trembling heart that she awaits the sealing of her fate. fj£AU preliminaries arranged between mother and lover, the daughter is called into the room to receive the par ental bless ing. instead of which she kioels to her mother, praying not to be taken from her. She describes the beauties of her virgin life, and declares she has no wish to chtuige it, prefers her freedom to all else, and begs that her mother will not make for her the hated red petticoat, which constitutes tho principal portion of the wardrobe of every peasant bride. The daughter pleads, tlio mother caresses, and seeks to persuade her to accept the lover, to whom but a short time before she refused to give her. The mother, while gently stroking the glossy hair of her child, tries to persuade her that after all a virgin life is not the most desirable; that God has placed her in this world with a mission, which she must seek to fulfill; that she cannot always remain at her mother’s side; she must go out from the parent roof, and make a home for herself. All these things and many more are said in vindication of the life apparently forced upon her. The mother concludes by repeating to the daughter all the lover has told her of his bright hopes for the future, and the sacrifices he is willing to make for her happiness. The daughter finally yields under such persuasive words, and who would not unless it were a heart of adamant? The young people then kneel to receive tho parental blessing, which is given with a great deal of ceremony. Then the priest is called upon to liestow his blessing, which is very beautiful and impressive. At its con clusion he places a ring on thehand of each. This ceremony is called and is considered even more sacred marriage itself. The parents of the engiSlL girl ar range long tables, on which flwHlaco the saniovor and summon the neiwTWto shnre in their rejoicing. The girl prenaßtea, the first cup of which she bands I lover, then to her father and lastly to each or The guests. This duty performed, she appears to lose all bashfuinees, and she who but a short time before bewailed her fate so loudly, now ac cepts and even glories in the choice she lias made. To tho world she is oblivious, and thinks of none but her lover, upon whom she lavishes all the love of her young heart, showing by every endearing tern ami ca ns* how great is’her worship for her hero. This change in the girl’s manner is not no ticed by parents or guests, who continue their tea drinking and gossiping. These engagement ceremonies are pos sessed of a weird and impressive grandeur, which no pen can describe in their realistic beauty. Tiie pretty bit of hypocrisy practiced both by mother and daughter—the one un willing to give up her child, the other to leave her home —is a custom handl'd down from generation to generation, aiul though insincere, is full of beauty and pathos. The custom is purely Slavonic, ancf is accepted only bv merchants and peasants. The cus toms ot the nobility are entirely different from those adopted by tho middle and lower classes. Now that the engagement has Iwen en tered info, we will follow tmr voung neoole through its devious windings. They are now free to make their own arrangements in regard to the marriage, when and where it shall take place ana who will lie the guests. They visit and receive friends and are considered almost the same as married. They have altogether a very pleasant time. Countess Norrinkow. PERJURY CHARGED TO A KING. Attacks Upon Kalakaua and His Cab inet by a Hawaiian Newspaper. From the New York Herald. An outspoken opponent of King Kala kaua’s government is the Hawaiian Ga zette, published at Honolulu. A recent number bristles all over with editorials and letters attacking the administration of af fairs. In opposition to the claim that the native Hawaiians jiav the bulk of tho taxes, it is stated that “The total taxation in ISBI was $882,356 49;!Jof this sum native Hawaiians paid $124,081 43, while other nationalities paid $258,275 06.” “Like master, like man,” the heads of the government are alluded to as “steejied in rascality,” and it is declared no wonder that "minor lights follow suit,” the inspira tion for these attacks lieing the disgraceful state of things at the Reformatory School alleged by another paper, the Bulletin. A paragraph alluding to a certain land transaction states that “from a public record it was conclusively shown that the King and his Minister, W. W. Gibson, en tered into an illegal contract, defying the express letter of the law which both are sworn to uphold, and have therefore per jured themselves.” The same paragraph alludes to a “bribe given to the King in connection with the opium license.” THE GOVERNMENT DECLARED ROTTEN. The several letters that appear in the issue are spoken of as showing “how thoroughly aroused the tax-payers and respectable men of this community are, and how determined they are that the present regime of rascality, knavery and debauchery should be brought to an end.” The article declares that “from tho throne downward, with a very few hon orable exceptions, the whole machinery of government is rotten, corrupt and filthy, and the sooner an end is made of it the better.” Another paragraph speaks of the elite of the army a.id i ivy as “the most drunken and thieving 1 aekguards round town.” “And as tlii: gj go now,” the paragraph continues, “those aro qualifications which mark men as belonging to the highest ranks in Hawaii.” HOT SHOT FOR HIGH AND LOW. “We have thieves in our navy, men of no character in our Ministry, a bribe receiver on the throne,” is the terse statement em bodied in an article calling for tho investi gation of Julius Ivaae, Register of Convey ances, who, with tho record published of him, could not, it is declared, “obtain the post of cashier of a peanut stand." The declaration is ulso made that “any man with a keen sense of honor would have called for investigation long ago, but the Hawaiian Cabinet has no sense of honor whatever, and is willing to lie smeared with ill deeds from head to foot, to connive at any rascality in others so long as it cun retain office and fill its pockets out of the public treasury. Every member of the government stands disgraced at the present time, and there is not a foreign office in the world that will not in a few weeks lie fully acquainted with the details of the opium bribe.” Rough on Rats,” Clears out rats, mice, roaches, flies, ants, bedbugs, beetles, insects, skunks, jack rab bits, sparrows, gophers. 15c.
