TITK WONMI.ltS OF A STRANGE BAND.
The landlord at the hotel here says a
letter from Quito, the capital of Ecuador,
to the Now York Sun, requires you to
pay your board in advance, because
has no money to buy food nnd no credit
with the market men; the muleteers ask
for their fees before starting, because
their cxperianco tenches them wisdom;
and there is scarcely a building in tho
whole republic in process of construc
tion, or even undergoing repairs. Death
seems to have settled upon everything
artificial, hut nature is in her grainiest
glory.
Tho population of Ecuador is about a
million, and the nation owes twenty gold
dollars per capita for every one of the
inhabitants. The president is compelled
to live at Guayaquil so ns to see that the
customs duties, tho only source of reve
nue, roach the government, and to quell
the revolutions that arc constantly aris
ing. Three hundred thousand of the
population are of Spanish descent, 100,-
000 are foreigners, and 000,000 native
Indians or persons of mixed blood. The
commerce is in tlio hands of the
foreigners entirely, and they have a
mortgage upon the entire country. The
Indians are the only people who work.
Over the doors of the residences or
the business houses, and both are usually
under the samo roof, arc signs reading,
"Tliis is the property of an Englishman,”
"This is the property of a citizen of ;
Germany," nnd so on, a necessary warn
ing to revolutionists, who are thus j
notified to keep their hands o!T.
The Spaniards are the aristocracy,poor
but proud, very proud. The mixed race I
furnishes the mechanics and artisans, ;
while the Indians till the soil and do the 1
drudgery. A cook gets two dollars a
month in a depreciated currenc
skirt and a square robe or mantle of
black, which they wear over their heads
nnd hold in place by 11 large pin or thorn

Valverde.
The last to attempt it was an English
botanist, who wrote a pamphlet giving
his experience. lie says that no one
who was not familiar with every inch of
the Llanganati mountains could have
written the Valverde document, for the
land marks are all minutely described;
but the path Indicated leads to a ravine
which is impassable, and in attempting
to cross which so many people have lost
their lives. It is his ojiinion that the
condition of this gorge has been so
changed by volcanic eruptions and earth
quakes as to obliterate the landmarks
which Valverde describes, and per
manently obstruct a path which lie is said
to have followed.

How to Carry Unaided an Insensible Man,
The following method is adopted by
and taught to the firemen of tho Loudon
Firfl brigade
A small platform, some forty or fifty
feet high, has been erected on the roof
of one the buildings in tho drill yard.
One-half of the men who are drilling
go iqi to this platform, and prostrate
themselves in all kinds of peculiar atti
tudes, gome on their backs, some on
(heir faces, some on their sides, and
some curled up. The other half have to
to go up and fetch them down single
handed. The rescuing firemen first
straightens out the seemingly lifcles
body of his comrade, and rolls it over on
to the face. Then taking hold under
each armpit, he raises the body on to bis
right knee, so that he can put his aim
around the waist, and the arm of the in
sensible around bis own neck, fl aking
u firm bold, he suddenly straightens him
self up, and walks away with h:s burden
in an upright position, and the whole
weight of the other's body supported
and hooked, as it were, by the arm. He
has then to carry his comrade through
the window as bc-t ho can, and shoot
him down the escape.
