LONDON GOSSIP. A Pleasant Place for Colored People- Tin isegro’a Advantage. Pprcml Cormp-ul' n>\ • thr .Y y. li London, Sept. 20.—-Colored people who nyo ambitious for association with white jpeople nmi to escape fho social inferiurity of Sli'T position in the l'nitod States, should emigrate to England. In this country, there dn- s not apltetr Li lie any prejudice against the colored brnt her. In’ fact there appear" to Is* n prejudice in his favor. There are not many negroes in England in proportion to the whites, but those who are here appear to lip specially delighted with their situations. The negroes m England Lave free intercourse and companionship with the whites of n corresponding and even superior grade of intelligence and education. 1 have seen any num ber of negro men out walking or riding with white women, well dressed, respectable jmd intelligent looking. It is also common enough to see negro women attended by clean-cut, good-looking Englishmen. If the negro woman does not have a w hite attend ant. it is because she prefers one of her own ,arv. I have seen a number of negro men and women in England, but I have invaria bly seen them in company with whites. I do not remember having seen negro men or women in company. Having nearly the entire white population of England to pick and choose from, they have naturally shown a discrimination against their own color. The only noticeable prejudice, therefore, in Eug ] uid against the negro comes from the pegroes themselves, Sunday, going tn to Kew, there came on board the little steamer at the t 'helsoa pier n fair-complex ioned, blue-eyed blonde. Her color was riear and her manner that of a neat house maid or upjier servant. Mho was dressed in b nek, with a small black astrachan fur cap flattened down upon her yellow liair. She v is in the company of the meaiiest-looking negro specimen 1 have ever seen. He was smell, lean and almost weazened. He was undersized and shabby. He bad the un wholesome color of the offspring of a very Jew specimen of white trash united with a degraded mulattress. He was a most mon grel representative of a bleached-out, de generate branch of the negro family. His eves were small, catty and yellowish through his faded, furtive black pupils. His teeth were dirty, broken and decayed. Jiis scanty, ragged heard partly concealed liis unwholsome looking face. A thick mane, which was neither wool nor hair, but a dirty black mass somewhere between the two, stood out from his small head under a low crowned soft hat. This degenerate specimen of hu manity was looked up toby this fresh-faced, neatly dressed English maid as if ho were a person of superior rank and position. As they sat down upon the side of the rail her negro companion passed his lean, yellow nailed hand round her waist under her cloak and gazed up into her dean-looking face with an expression of leering satisfaction. Such a spectacle in a public conveyance in the Southern regions would undoubtedly have led to their both being pitched over board. As it was, no one but a small group of America ns on board the vessel appeared to notice this strange companionship. I hat e been living this summer in wbat are called in London residential flats, near Hyde Park. There are several porters em ployed about t hese flats. One of them is a New York negro who acquired his edu cation and knowledge of mankind as porter in a Pullman car and afterward in one of the New York hotels. He wears a double-breast ed, brass buttoned blue frock livery, with round, flat-top cap, which has a square visor. He is a most imposing indi vidual. He has the soft melodious voice of the best tvpe of his race. He is a clean, manly-lookmg fellow, lie js the hero of all cooks and housemaids of the entire flats. This porter is on duty at night. He always moves about escorted bv several admir ing white servant girls. He hardly ever has less than six in his company. They stand in the most admiring positions. No Bun thorne was ever surrounded by more com plete postures of adoration. But this porter Iskes all this admiration gravely. He evi dently has a very poor opinion of white people who run after negroes. Ho permits the servant girls to run after him, but not much more. All of the girls speak to him with the prefix of “Mr. before his name. None of the white porters are honored in this way. They are all called bv t heir first names, although two or three of them are Inen advanced in life and the heads of large families. The colored porter is always Mr. Brooks. One of the tidiest of these servant girls, born and reared in the country, and who has not yet lost the fresh color ac mired in her farm life, expressed the other day a fervent desire that when she had a husband she hoped he would be just such a nice black man as Mr. Brooks. Coming out of Paddington station the ether morning I saw a four-wheeled eah drive up with a rattle and crash. Its top was covered with trunks, hags and boxes. Six fresh-faced railroad porters stood in lute to receive this splendid array of bag 'page. The door of the cab opened, and out stepped a regular-featured, wholesome,alert, active-looking man in clerical dress. Whether a member of the English or the l atholie church was not apparent from his dress. Both wear the soft black hat so pop ular with us in the West and the regulation black frock-cut uniform, with white tie at the throat. After him came a tall, lithe-figured negro girt, dressed in all the hues of the rainbow. A great yellow-be-ribhoned hat perched upon the top of her tightly twisted and crinkled hair. Bhe was about three-quar ters black. Tones of yellow shone in the high lights upon her dusky face. She was about 18. I supposed she was a servant girl. There followed directly after her snotber negro woman, also gayly dressed and about the same shade of color, and after her came still another a little blacker, shorter, stouter and evidently the chaperone of the party. It was clear that they were net Bisters of Charity. They were too gayly dressed for that. They stood alioiit perfectly at their ease, and appeared to regard the clergyman who was with them as a person whose only occupa tion in life was to look after them. It. was lie who took charge of all the baggage and "bo purchased all of the tickets, and who kept, running to them with ]>olite sugges tions for their comfort aud convenience, and " hen it was time tor the train it was the youngest., the one who wore the yeliow ribbooed hat perched high upon her head, who took his arm, and with a real cake walk swagger marched to a first-class com partment, followed ,by her dusky com panions.' This compartment was specially reserved, and when the train pulled out the priest sat facing his tlcbe colored fairies, '' foumg with rapture and attention to their lively remarks and gleeful giggles, which occasionally broke into a real darkey laughter. Viewing the utter absence of prejudice "gainst colored people in England I do not think better advice could be given to col ored people who are ambitious than to come here. Those in the South who have bad •heir political aspirations cut short by the energetic action of white leaguers, by the insinuation of tissue ballots and by exces sive skill upon the part of whites in count ing voles, should by all means come to Eng land. There is nothing here to stand ill the way of their advancement. They would Be able to strengthen at. once a naturally prominent position freely accorded to them o> the English masses. By judicious mar riage hacked by the admiration of the white race 1 do not see what should stand between them and Parliament, or even the f abinet. The English are very fond of oratory, and the negroes with us have a special gift in that, direction.

A Young Woman’s Teat of Hor Lover Results In a Confusing Discovery. From the PUilrotetphia Press. New Yoke, Oct. B.—Winter before last it was the swell thing for the line ladies of a certain society set to make up parties to go to Beefsteak John's. There they sat around the old stove, with chunks of steak on slices of bread and drank ale out of bat tered pewter mugs. Last winter it was “slumming,” ns they called visiting the dives of New York. But those places got so decent under Mayor Hew itt that there was no fun in them after awhile. During the summer, at such times as the ladies got into town, they had a mild sort of au outing on top of the new Fifth Avenue stages. This fall the fad of theso folks is to goto the fortune tellers. They make up parties and visit half a dozen of an evening. A girl told me she had heard from fate by cards, by palmistry, by spiritual mediumship, by astrology and by a teacup. Mhe thought the revelations of the tea were the most won derful. The woman told her she was en gaged in something as secret as the grave, but very amusing. “And are you:'’ I asked. “Why, it is too good to keep to myself,” rattled Miss Bouton. “How the woman found it out I can’t say. You know I’m en gaged to Archie Vivant, and there are queer stories in our set about Areliie. It oc curred to me that I might as well get better acquainted’ with the gentleman before I went any further. Mo I just wrote him a letter, and told him I was a young married woman who had fallen desperately in love with him, and desired, above all things, to meet him. If he would promise never to try to see my face, but would allow me to wear a thick veil, I would make an appointment with him. Oh, the scheme suited him. He wrote directly. He met me the same even ing. I’ve been out riding with him re peatedly, and even supped at a hotel out on Central avenue. How he did beg to see my face. Well it’s awful fun, and Archie, to keep it up, wears a mask now. When I jumped into the carriage the other night he fairly startled me. for he had on a crim son domino, and said if I hid my face so would he,"’ “When was this,” asked I. “Night before last.” This struck me as strange, as Archie had sat in front of me that evening at the theatre. I went next day to Bob, the bosom friend of Archie, and I said to him: “What is this I hear of Archie riding out with a veiled lady 1” “Good mercy,” said he, “you don’t say that’s got out. It's some foolish, romantic girl. Mhe’s young and awful nice, though none of us have seen her face.” “None of you!” 1 exclaimed. “Why yes; you see she’s gone on Archie, but Archie has passed her around. She is all tied up in h veil aud lace tilings. Mo Archie got a mask, aud she thought that was very interesting and all the jollier. So it is the exploit for every fellow in the club who is Archie's size to wear that mask and go riding with that girl. Oh, it’s a great kidding we’re giving her.” I wrote to Addle next morning. I don’t think she will mention this little enterprise to Archie after they are married, and mean while. the boys of the club are sorry that the veiled lady has disappeared. On the Fiftn avenue promenade I saw an elegant and very handsome woman. Mile wore a costume of pale gray silk, with draperies of Irish lace, and on her head was a bonnet of gold-colored tulle, trimmed with white tulle and Irish lace to cor respond. It was a rich, but simple and becoming toilet. This was the Countess of Dalliousie, our newest aristocrat from Brit ain. Mhe was walking the hundred feet or so from a store to a carriage. Along came a common-looking sort of swell English man, on whom nobody thought of turning their eyes from the pretty woman. That was the Duke of Marlborough, whom we ha ve been abusing or coddling, as fancy took us, for his notorious career abroad. What struck me as interesting in the mo mentary encounter was the recognition be tween the two titled persons. The Duke seemed inclined to stop and warmly greet the Countess, but she barely inclined her head in an incipient bow, without a ? limps© of a smile, and coldly passed away, t was substantially a cut direct. Clara Belle. MASTODONS IN ALASKA. The Strange Story Told by an Indian Hunter. Fro in thr .Veto York Times. Max’ Francisco. Oct. 10. —For several years scientists have been greatly interested in stories that have come from Alaska tend ing to shake their faith in the belief that the mastodon is an extinct animal. The latest contribution on this subject—the im portance of w hich, from a zoological point of view, cannot be over-estimated—is f umished by the Free Press, published at Juneau, Alaska, a copy of which has just reached this city. The editor of that paper says: “In conversation with I). H. Mummers, formerly of Denver, Col., who came out this fall with a party of miners from Forty Mile Creek, we learned that the existence of living mastodons were not the mere fabrications of Northern furriers, but t hat the Stick Indians had positively told him that such animals had been seen by them. One of the Indians said that w hile hunting one day in that unknown section he came across an immense track sunk to a deptli of several inches in moss. It much resembled an elephant’s track, hut was larger round than a barrel. The Indian followed up this curious track, which to all appearance was very fresh, tracking from one immense stride to another, a distance of some miles, when lie came in ini! view of his game. The hunter gave one look, then turned and fled. These Indians, as a rule, are the bravest huuters. With no other weapon than their sjitar they will attack and kill a grizzly, but. the immense proportions of this new style of game both startled and filled the hunter, brave as lie was, with great fear. “He described it as being larger than Post Trader Harper's store, with great shining yellowish tusks, and a mouth large enough to swallow him at a single gulp. He said the animal was doubtless similar to those which furnished the immense tiones scat tered over that section. If such animals are now in existoive, aud Mr. Hummers has no reason to doubt the veracity of the In dian, as other Indians, and also Mr. Harper, confirmed it, they inhabit a section very higli in altitude, but. rarely visited by hu man beings. \Ve also have no reason to doubt, the Indian tale, for at no very dis tant period Yykeon country was inhabited by these animals, as hundreds of their mas sive skeletons strewn along the creeks are silent but truthful witnesses. On Forty- Mile creek bones can be found projecting partly from the sand, and among t he drift wood of the stream on the creek below this, these skeletons are also quite numerous.
