On any good map of South America may be found in Dutch Guiana the name- of a number of savage tribes inlialiiting the wooded and hilly uplands of tlie in terior. Among them the Aukan, Sa- ramacca, Bekoe and Bonis are full An Interesting Process That the PublU Knows Little About. There are many things to be seen at the United States mint ou Fifth street. It is not generally known that this is the largest institution of the kind in the world; yet it is a fact, and in its facilities for the rapid and perfect coinage of money the San Francisco nnnt is con ceded to be much 6U wrior to the Royal mint of .London, which is generally sup posed to be the largest and most com- ; >Iete mint on earth.

Now and then they found meane lo tempt their friends still in bondag« iM join them in the mountain val leys. The bondsmen played a sorry joke upon their masters in 1712. when Ad miral Cassard attacked the Dutch settle- menLs, and hundreds of slaves wera Lurried into the interior for concealment. JVaee soon came, but there were few negroes to return to the coast, for they preferred wild life with their friends near , the headwaters of the rivers of Guiana t» drudging their lives away on coffee and tobacco plantations. So the numbers of self released Africans gradually increased, and there their descendants have lived ever since, as distinct from the Indians around them as from the whites of tin, coast. They have, apparently, not grown in numbers for many years, but there ;tre now about 8,000 of them, and they are known as the Negroes of the Woods. Their story is perhaps unique in the . history of human migration. It is a story of wild savages transported acros> a wide sea to a new world, where they regained control of their persons and ac tivities and reproduced amid new sur roundings the habitations and customs o( their native country. Dim tradition alone has faintly preserved the memory of their fatherland, but none the less have tiiey turned a bit of tropical Amer ica into a semblance of the negro’s na tive home. Jet black in color, progna thous and thick lipped, they have pre served the pure negro type, have shown little aptitude for improvement, and are very low in their social scale. Like many an African missionary, who has fruitlessly toiled his life away, the Mora- ; vian brethren have labored for years among the Negroes of the Woods with little apparent result. In all essentials they live today like those negroes of the west coast of Africa, who have had con siderable contact with the white races. Their rectangular huts of wood and thatch, built along the water courses, are almost exact counterparts of those that are found on the lower Congo and among some tribes of the Ogowe rivt-r. Like tbe great Pahouin tribe of the French Congo, they divide their huts by thin partitions into two compartments, one of which they use for sleeping and the other for culinary purposes. Lik-* many African tribes they twist their wool into little braids, wear arm and leg ornaments of copper, brass and iron, and adorn their necks with strings of beads or the teeth of wild animals. Like the equatorial African, they tattoo jlheir bodies without the adjunct of color, which is not uncommon among the In dians, but is practiced in Africa by only a few tribes, like the Pahouin. In their villages they are generally naked, and they wear cotton coverings only when they visit the white settlements, where their scant attire of ornaments and paint would not be tolerated. They have abandoned their native custom of sloen- ing on the groimd for the Indian liaifi- mock, which they weave out of libers. White men rarely visit these Africans of the forest, chiefly, perhaps, because their streams, which, flowing to flip sea, are the only highways into the interior, are very difficult of ascent. The negroes dislike to mingle with the whites, and they never leave their savage homes ex cept when the need of rum and ammuni tion drives them to the settlements. Then die lazy men, who usually engage in no toil except fishing and the chase, cut «lown a few trees, skillfully fashion the trunks into canoes, and float them down the oreeks and rivers to sell them at the towns. Oftener still they make little rafts of valuable varieties of timber, and invest the proceeds in powder and hall, ♦cads and bad liquor. Tonka beads also oke out their trade resources. These four groups of blacks, like kin dred tribes in Africa, are ruled by king lets, and some of them take their names from chiefs who led them in the ware tlie Dutch long waged upon their escaped slaves, only with the result of driving them further into the woods. They live chiefly upon vegetable food, which ths women raise and prejiare. They make no pottery, not being descended from lined out by the busheL Just at present there is a lively demand LI over the country for silver dimes, and undreds of thousands of dollars of them .re being shipped to New York, Chicago. Cincinnati. St. Louis and other eastern ities. Two of the money presses are. md have been for some time, running exclusively on this coin. The demand is > great that these machines are not even -ipped on Sundays, and will be run on hat day. The process of dime making i3 an in- ; .‘resting one. The silver bullion is first ■ i el ted and run into two-pound bars. These in turn are run through immense ; oilers and flattened ont to the thickness f the coin. These silver strips are then ■c.ssed through a machine which cuts :em into the proper sir.e for the presses, :.:e strips first having been treated with kind ftf tallow to prevent their being n'ratched in their passage through the •utters. The silver pieces are then put into the feeders of tbe printing presses, and are fed to the die by automatic ma chinery at the rate of 100 per minute, -18,000 dimes being turned out in a reg ular working day of eight hours. As the smooth pieces are passed between the ponderous printing dies they receive the lettered and figured impression in a man ner similar to that of a paper pressed upon a form of type: at the same time the piece is expanded in a slight degree, and the small corrugations are put into its rim. The machine drops the com pleted coin into a receiver, and it is ready for the counter’s hands. The instrument used by the counter is not a complicated machine by any means, as one might suppose. It is a simple popper covered tray, having raised ridges running across its smrface at a distance apart the exact width of a dime. From the receiver the money is dumped on to this board or tray, and as it is shaken rapidly by the counter the pieces settle own into the spaces lietween the ridges. Yll these spaces being filled, the surplus coin is brushed back into the receiver, and the counter has exactly 1,250 silver limes, or $125, on this tray, which num- i >er is required to fill the spaces. The ; ray is then emptied into boxes, and the money is ready for shipment. The dime does not pass through the weigher’s hands, as does the coin of a larger denomination. One and one-half avains is allowed for variation or “toler ance” in all silver coins from $1 down, and the deviation from the standard in i tlie case of the ten cent pieces is so tri- iiing that the trouble and expense of Weighing coins of this denomination is apensed with.—San Francisco Chron icle. Beverages of Venezuela. Tlie beverages mostly in use in the ■ ities are French wine or imported Ger man and American bottle beer. Owing t > the heavy import duties imposed upon every article, beer is very expensive. I paid sometimes for a small bottle of Mil waukee lager, Vienna Dreher or “Cum- batsheer” (Kulmbaclier) six to .eight reals, equal to as many dimes. The lower class are very fond of aguardiente, manufactured from sugar cane; carrato, or hervido, a sort of fire water, manufac tured from Indian corn or guarapo; but these strong drinks are usually taken in small quantities, and intoxicated persons are rarely seen in Venezuela. .Fruit waters and Naranjada are also drunk a good deal, but the most popular drink with many is “aqua de papelyn,” which was first introduced to my knowledge on t he coffee hacienda of the Austrian con sul. He might tell a curious tale of its : Cter effects, but I trust in his discretion. “Aqua de papelon” is simply water, mveetened with native sugar. In order to promote the making of pure white sugar the importation of this article into , Venezuela is entirely forbidden, and the sugar in general use is called papelon, l<eing the product of cane, containing all the syrup or molasses.— E.

The fact is especially noteworthy that these Negroes of the Woods are more muscular and vigorous, better formed and more buoyant in spirit than their kindred, who for generations have continued to toil on the coast plantations. They are all of the same origin, and they afford another proof of the fact that man can far lietter perj>etuate his best physical and mental qualities in a state of savagism than under conditions where he is simply condemned to a hopeless life of unrequited drudgery. —New York Sun.

So one in heart and thought, I trow, That thou miglit'st press the strings and I might draw the bow, , And both -Would meet in musio sweet, Thou and I, I trow. I said to myself Which is I, which you? ' Myself made answer to myself, Lo, you are I and I am you. Yet are we twain, we two. I’ll sleep. I'll sleep, and dream a sweet death for trouble; I'll sleep. I'll sleep, and dream that my heart beats double. More than twice one, beyond all measure more, Doth count this singular two of thee and me. —The Century. BROTHERHOOD. Dear brother, let me hold thy hand. And let me speak my heart to thee. For all the beauty of the land. And all the wonder of the sea, Are hideous to my soul if I Am doomed to dream alone and die. Men are the feeble links that make The strong, enduring chain of race; Thus I am stronger for thy sake, And for tlie sake of those who grace My life and all my life has known With something sweeter of their own. —George Edgar Montgomery. Outside of those kisses bestowed by affectionate relatives, there can be but three recognized classes of the genus kiss—as viewed from a male standpoint. The first comes upon your lips as if they were touched by a smooth-planed, cool and insensate board, without life or animation—unproductive of any agreeable sensation whatever, and not worth being garnered with tlie heart’s mementoes of golden happy hours. The second is a gentle, velvety kiss, very sweet and pleasant, but vex: - tiously unsatisfying to an ardent na ture, and but little more pronounced than a fascinating cousin would likely bestow. The third is such as coral, tempting, passionate lips bestow, for about ten seconds, upon your lips'—“a lingering sweetness long drawn out”— that not only steals your breath, but seems to be drawing ycur very soul from out of your body. A fellow may forget his mother—and about the time he is harvesting such a kiss lie is sure to forget her—but the recollection of that undwarfed', honest kiss will abide with him a source of joy, and be com mensurate with life itself.

The fact that Mrs. Cleveland ac cepted art invitation to a private house this week has caused a good deal of comment, as it has not been the custom of the President’s wife to do so. Mrs. Grant used to visit her special freinds in an informal way, but seldom accepted invitations from others than the ladies of the Cabinet. Mrs. Hayes went out once or twice. Mrs. McElroy did not regard the rule as binding upon her, as she was not the. wife of a President and was only the temporary mistress of the White House. Until now Mrs. Cleve- i land had adhered strictly to the rule not | to go outside of the Cabinet circle in I social gatherings, and it is said that ! the exception she made this week by i attending the “musicale”given by the Misses Markoe was only for the pleas ure of the young ladies visiting her.

From many observations on healthy men, Dr. Theodoroff. of St. Petersburg, learns that the vital capaeity of the lungs increases from morning till evening, de creasing again during the night. After each meal. too. there is a special increase, followed by a slight decrease: the vital capacity being at its highest shortly after dinner, and at its lowest after getting up in the morning. The force of inspiration and expiration follows nearly the same law. — Arkansaw Traveler., Consumption Snrelj- Cured. To titf.
