Some of the Singular Wares Which They Offer For Sale. From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The peddlers of Corea sometimes bring their things in packs on coolies’ backs, and sometimes they produce a bushel of bundles from the depth of their loose sleeves. After a boy had shown his choice lot of copper bowls one day he went up his sleeve and brought out a trained sparrow that he put through several tricks and slipped up his sleeve again when we refused to buy. Sev eral brought quantities of hair for sale, and insisted upon unrolling the bundles of coarse, black queues that had been clipped from the heads of Corean boys. There is a great trade with China in these Corean locks 1 hat are used to piece out queues. A large black bowl, Inlaid with mother-of-pearl, was brought one day and gave occasion for many remarks about this wonderful wash bowl being the only proof that any Corean had ever intended to wash himself; but it turned out that the bowl was used to hold the black hair of the Palace ladies and sing ing girls, who wear tremendous chignons weighing fourteen and twenty pouuds. Of the really good things that are brought for sale the bast are small iron boxes, padlocks, and small weapons inlaid with silver in some really fine designs, many of them so nearly Persian as hi astonish connoisseurs, and others in a fine diaper and key pattern quite as foreign to this end of the world. As inlaid metal work, it is crude and coarse compared to what other and very near nations can do. Disks of open-work bronze and iron are often brought hung full of coins strung on strings of colored silk. The coins and medals are curious in themselves, aud they are regarded not only as charms and ornaments but as a proper way for a coin-collector to display his treasures. Of embroidery, either new or old, very little is seen that is good or curious, considering the near neighborhood of China and Japan. The peddlers often bring tbe square bits of embroidery worn on the front aud back of the mandarin’s palace clothes, but they are generally too frayed, faded and stained to be of any use. The plastron of a civil mandarin has two Corean stalks flying toward each other. Distinction as a Chinese scholar allows other to wear the storks, while a general sports a brace of most dan gerous-looking white tigers embroidered on black silk, with a finish of conventional clouds and waves in brilliant colors. At weddings the bridegroom, however lowly in station, may ride in an official chair, sit on an official leopard skin near the royal red, and also embroider cranes on his gown. The bridegroom pushes the privileges to its limit then, and the plastron of cranes be comes a veritable apron of red satin covered with four, six and eight cranes of different colors. Strange Justice in Turkey. From the le vant Herald. A week ago a drover taking cattle to market lost two of his bullocks on the road. When lie reached Rodosto be at once in formed the municipal authorities of the fact, who dispatched three ■ endarmea in search of the missing beasts, which, it was thought, might either have strayed or have been stolen. On the high road they met two mouhadjirs driving before them two stout oxen that had a suspicious resemblance to those of which they were in search Putting, literally, two and two together, the couple of men and couple of bullocks, the gendar mes challenged the mouhadjirs to halt and give up their booty. But these had no in tention of parting with their companions; they hurried on, believing tiie gendarmes to be brigands in search of a dinner. Finding their authority ignored, the gendarmes fired upon the fugitives, killing one of them. The other mouhadjir took to Tils heels and escaped, leaving tiie cattle there, of which the gendarmes’ at once took possession. Having hastily buried their victim, these courageous individuals came back to Itodosto, bringing their bullocks with them. When these latter, however, were shown to the driver, he denied that they were those which he had lost, being of quite another color and another breed. In the face of such a declaration as this it was evident that the gendarmes had erred on the side of professional zeal. Instead of finding the lost bullocks they had killed a man. A scheme to save their dignity had thus to be devised, and accordingly some one was prompted to swear that the cattle they hud captured belonged to him and bad been stolen lroin his firm but a little while before. By this lie be thus became unlaw fully possessed of the bullocks while exoner ating the brave gendarmes from all excess of zeal in the discharge of their duty and their carbines. It would however, appear that they wore not to esrzqie altogether un punished, tor when the story got about, the local authorities put the gendarmes under arrest, not for having killed an innocent man, but because they had buried him in such haste without having first washed the OM'jwe in aouoniauce with the religious law.

(NICKERING THE PIANO For Pure Singing Tone. ■•dll -H The American Art Journal of New York thus speaks of Mrs. Cecilia S. P. Cary, of Rochester, N. Y., who is now recognized as one of the finest Pianists and most success ful Teachers that America has produced: “Mrs. Cary made fiying visits to New York, receiving valuable instruction from S. B. Mills, and drawing inspiration from those two great tone masters, Thalberg and Gottschalk. The production of a pure singing tone had always been a study with her, and, observing that these two great .pianists used only the Chickening Pianos, she made a thorough investigation, which resulted in her purchasing the first Chick ering Grand that went into Western New York. Since that time Mrs. Cary has been a firm and steadfast friend of that Piano Forte, and it is a matter of conscience with her to advise the use of these instruments with her class, over 70 of whom possess Chickering Grands.” A Word to the Wise. —A Piano which is used and indorsed by such magnificent artists as Thalberg, Gottschalk, liivi King, Teresa Careuo, Wm. H. Sherwood and Mrs. Cary is certainly a safe and desirable Piano to buy. Over 74,000 Chickerings have been sold, and to-day, as always, the Chickering Pianos lead the World.
