Washington Irving lias been the occa

" Life of Mohammed " has lately been
translated under J'arsee auspices into Ori

aroused the more fanatical sects of the
Mohammedans to great rage. The trans
lator withdrew the edition, but this did not
" appease the Mussulmans, who suddenly
attacked theParsces in the streets of Bom
bay and in their houses. Before the police
coUd quell the assaultan immense amount
of damage, had been done to the property
of Parse residents by plunder and destruc
tion, though, so far as known, no lives were

It apjtears that the public exchequer in
France is beginning to groan under the
ever increasing burden of official pensions
of all sorts. Every government that comes
into power makes it a point to pension oil
its poor supporters, and. as governments
Miomd each other very rapidly in France,
the list of cnsions lengthen accordingly,
it matters little whether the pensioners
die or not, for their families invariably suc
ceed in taking their places. The total
amount now paid out of the exchequer for
jwnsioiisis ll'.J.073.37o francs, or nearly live
millions sterling per annum. '1 he Gov

abuse and irregularities which exist in this
wholesale system of pensioning, and a
searching examination is to be made in
every case.
John Stuart Mill's juvenile precocity
in learning, as modestly celebrated in the
departed pliilosopher's posthumous auto

member of the opposite sex. At the cele

1787, the degree of boctor of I'hilosonhv

A Keqcisite for School-keeping.
Mr. Weiss, in a lecture upon Theodore
Tarker, tells this anecdote, showing the
qualifications neewsary for a village school
master less than half a century ago. Mr.
Parker went to Lincoln to apply for the
district school. The old chairman of the
committee, to whom grammars were un
known, said grullly, '"What's your
nameV' "Theodore Parker." "Where do
you belong? ' "Ixington." "Be you the
son of Captain Parker w ho fit the battle of
Ixington ?" "o, I am bis grandson."
"What! be von Capfc.in Parker's grand

guess you'll do to keep our school."
Km txi KL Deitsch. who wrote o inter

gives the following explanation of the way
the Koran was made: "The Koran is a
wonderful look in many respects, but
chiefly in this that it has" no real begin
ning, middle, or end. . . . From date
leaves and tablets of white stone, from
shoulder-bones and bits of parchment
thrown promiscuously in a box, and from
' the breasts of men,' was the first edition
of the Koran prepared, one year after the
prophet's death, and the single chapters
were arranged according to their respec
tive lengths. orgaii-iii)c fashion, and not
even that accurately."
The Uses of the Tongue. To taste
and talk, of course! It does neither. An

The man was bleeding from the head and

fractured the skull. The patient lay in a
eomatoe condition, breathing heavily.
The sloetors found tliat his neck was dislo

completely severed ; and yet the man lived.
The dislocation of the neck was reduced,
and Patrick immediately began to swear
loud and distinctly, apparently finishing
up what he was talkiug about wheii tne

freely, and returned to perftrct conscious

Poetic Pilferers.
The New York Trihune says :
There is apparently to be no end to
thefts of poetry by those whose patron is
Mercury rather "than the Muses. Mrs.
Emerson's success in makinga great many
credulous peopl believe she wrote Mr.
Carlton's ballad of "Bet-sy." has encour
aged the " men of three letters" to bolder
depredations than ever. A young man in
Koxbtiry, named Walker, has stolen Miss
Nora Pern 's pretty song of " The Love
Knot," and published it as his own. The
exuuisite "Lines to a Waterfowl," known
to every reader of American poetry for
the hist half century, appear as original in
a recent number of the Forest and Stream, J
signed G. II. W. Instead of W. C! B.
Sometimes these thefts are like other pur
loinings merely to satisfy a thievish in
stinct, and get something for nothing. In
tliese cases the thief sells his stolen manu
script to an ignorant publisher, and the
business operation is easy to understand.
But the publication is far oftener the des
perate resort of one who has been led by
his vanity to claim the verses 'among ac
quaintances, and who Is, therefore, forced
to assert the same claim before the public
Besides, when one has told the same lie
constantly for a certain time, he begins to
believe it. It is related of a well-known
romancer in our navy, that while in Europe
he told many lies about an imacinary
horse of his, that before sailing for' home
he bought an expensive saddle for it.
Curious Marriage Customs in Various
Nations.
Marriage is the first and most ancient of
all institutions. As the foundation of so
ciety and the family.it is universally ob
served throughout the globe, no nation
having been discovered, however barbar
ous, which does not celebrate the union of
sexes by ceremony and rejoicing. The
abuses of the institution, as polygamy, in
fidelity and divorce, have in no manner
touched its existence, however they may
have vitiated its purity.
The condition of woman in all countries
has afforded a fruitful theme for the ob
servation of the traveler, and the simula
tions of the philosopher and the novelist.
It lias been uniformly found that the sav
age is the tyrant of the female sex, while
the osiliou and consideration given to
woman are advanced in proportion to the
refinement of social life. Under the laws
of Lycurgus, Numa, and even later law
givers, the power of the husband over his
wile was absolute, sometimes even includ
ing the power of life and death. The wife
was always defined and treated as a thing.
not as a ieion the absolute property of
her lord. In the earlier aires a man nii'rht
sell his children or wife indifferently, and
relics of this rudecustom still survive, even
among nations called civilized and Chris
tian. In the countries of Oie East, where po
lygamy is almost universal, marriage is
not the sacred tie which it is held to be in
Christian countries. In Persia men marry
either for life or for a determined time.
Travelers or merchants commonly apply
to the magistrate tor a wife during their
residence iu any place, the Cadi producing
a number of girls for a selection, whom he
declares to be honest and healthy. Four
wives are permitted to each husband in
Persia, and the same number is allowed
by the Mohammedan law to the Mussul
man. In Chinese Tartarv a kind of male po
lygamy is highly respected. In Thibet it
is customary lor the brothers of a family
to have a wife in common, and they gen
erally live in harmony and comfort with
iier. Among the Calmucks the ceremony
uaa viumuvn las v. sai.Iaj
is performed on horseback. The girl is
tirst mounted and permitted to ride off at
full speed, when a lover takes a horse and
gallops after her. If he overtakes the fu
gitive, she becomes his wife, and the mar
riage is consummated on the spot. It is
said that no instance is known of a girl
ever being overtaken unless she really is
fond of her lover.
The Arabs divide their affections be
tween their horses and their wives, and
regard th purity of blood in the former
as much as in their offspring. Polygamy
is practiced only by the rich, and divorces
are rare,
In Ceylon the marriare proposal is
brought about by the man tirst sending to
her whom he wishes to become his wife to
buy her clothes. These she sells for a
stipulated sum, generally asking as much
as she thinks requisite lor them to begin
the world with. In the evening he calls
on her with the wardrobe, at her father's
house, and they pass the uurht in each
other's company. "ext morning, if mu
tually satisfied, they appoint the day of

In llindoostan the women have a pe
cunar veneration lor marriage, as it is
part of the popular creed that those fe
males wlio die virgins are excluded from
the joys of paradise. In that precocious
country the women commence to bear
children at the age of twelve, some even at
eleven. llie proximity of the na
tives to the burning sun, which
ripens men ana women as well as plants
at me earliest period in those tropical lati
tudes, is assigned as the cause. The dis
tinguishing marks of the Hindoo wife are
the most profound fidelity, submission
and attachment to her husband.

In Italy matches are made with prover

virgins are systematically bartered and
sold by their parents, and young people
are married who never saw each other be

In France, as has often been remarked,
woman monopolizes all the society, and a
large share of the business of life. The
colTee-houses, the theaters, the shops, the
caliarets or drinking-shops, are filled with
women. Women lord it at all assemblies,
and are better informed and more capable
managers than men. Marriage is looked
upon not so much as a matter of affection
as of interest, and the sacredness of the tie
is proportionally slender.
ltussia appears to be the most barbarous
country in Europe in its treatment of the
marriage relation. The nuptial ceremonies,
all and singular, are based upon the idea of
the degradation of the female. When the
Carcnts have agreed upon the match, the
ride is examined by a number of women
to see if she has any bodily defects. On her
wedding-day she is crowned with a gar
land of wormwood, to denote the bitterness
of the married state. She is exhorted to be
olxHlient to her husland, and it is a custom
in some districts for the newly married
wife to present the bridegroom with a whip,
in token of submission, and with this he
seldom fails to show his authority. In that
cold, cruel country, husbands are some
times known to torture their wives to
death, without any punishment for the
murder. If a woman proves barren, the
husband generally prevailsou her to retire
into a convent, and leave him at liberty. If
he fails in his iersuasion, he is permitted
to whip her into obedience.

Whether it be the result of this system
of oppression, or of their savage climate,
or of the unnatural, hot air of their stove-
neatea apartments, it Is certaiu that a more
unlovely set of women than the Russian
would be difficult to find. "They want,"
says an English traveler, "the genuine
flavor which only Nature can give. That
charming firmness and elasticity of flesh so
indisputably requisite to constitute beauty,
and so delicious to the touch, exists not
among the Kussian females, or in very few
of them."

but cannot demand his presents back. No
man is allowed to sell his wife without her
consent, but he may, and often does, assign
her over to another. This custom, it is
said, is availed of by the Russian hunters,
who take Aleutian girls for a trifling com-
pensation.

whiting that remains on the wall is easily
brushed oft' with a soft cloth attached to a

not damp and the whiting is dry.
Why Do Farmers Live so Poorly I
Under the above caption, a correspon
cut of the Chicago Tribune in Buchamui
county, Iowa, writes as follow s :
I noticed in the Weekly Tribune of a re
cent date an article lrom a correspondent,
entitled "Homes In the City vs. Homes in
the country." lie asks some questions,
ana makes some statements, that 1 am di:
posed to answer and explain.
He asks "Whv is it that farmers, as
class of people, live poorer than any othe
people?" stating that they deny them
elves many of the commonest luxurit
that are in the reach of all ; and that thev
require their help to work from daylight
to dark, oftentimes upon short allowance,
and giVing no tme for bodily rest or men
tal culture; and closing with the assertion
that, it farmers would make their home
agreeable by cheerful surroundings, "lot:
of people from the cities would seek
home in the country."
Having spent all my life of 45 years on
farm, either in .ew lork or Iowa, lam
disposed to admit that your correspond
ent's statement of the use is mainly cor
rect. So far as my observation and ex
pcrience go. the labor of the farmer is in
cessant. He allows neither himself nor
his help much relaxation ; luxuries are
not common on his table : and ids horn
in its general make-up and surroundings,
is anything but attractive. To all this,
however, there are some happy exceptions
Moreover, 1 believe that, lrom the fin
settlement of our country to the prescn
time, the condition of the mass of Ameri
can farmers has. in the main, been tin
changed. Of course, our system ot agri
culture has changed : but it has o: ougfi
with it no corresponding amelioration
of the condition of the farmer. The same
unending, unrelaxing toil ; the sania self-
denial in relation to the luxuries and re
finements of cultivated society are
ilecessary now as a huudred years ago
ow, why is this so? Why "is it that
while the country has grown rich, am
while the condition of vxery other class in
society nas improved to a very great ex
tent, there is no corresponding change in
the condition ot ttie farmer t
The answer to this question would prop
erly require more space than I am dispos
ed to ask for ; so I w ill briefly say, it is be
cause all industries, trades, arts, and pro
fessions have, by a long system ot careful
nursing, built themselves up; and, not
only this, they have called for and receiv
ed ot the farmer assistance m securing
legislative protection. Railroad compa
nies, mercliants, mechanics, manufactur
ers, bankers, and politicians have asked oi
the farmer protection and subsidy. The
farmer has been told by philanthropists
and philosophers that his own prosperity
depended upon the careful nursing of ev
ery interest but his own ; and so, Chris
tianlike, when aked for his coat, he has
given his cloak also.
aow, while every otner class nnus easy
access to the refinements and luxuries of a
cultivated, intellectual, and social life, the
farmer sees these advantages drifting
farther and farther from his reach, and
finds that while all the world around him
has moved, and he has helped it to move,
he himself has stood still. Why does
not the larmer surround himself with
comforts and luxuries, and make his
home attractive ? Why does he not turn
his attention to intellectual pursuits,
and the cultivation of his mind ? Whv so
sordid and groveling? Because, with few
exceptions, ne cannot do or be otherwise.
And out ot this maze oi difficulties winch
surrounds the farmer, there appears but
two ways of escape : i irst, by dishonesty,
which always keeps an open door, and
points to a seemingly pleasant and short
way a path, moreover, well, trodden by
the honorable of the land ; second, by ex
cessive and protracted ton, and a total at
stinence from any comfort or luxury that
costs money. And I now state, as the re
sult of at least thirty years' observation
upon this point, that 1 have known oi out
very few cases where success has been at
tained bv either method, but that it re
quires a happy combination ot notn the
tirst and second methods in order to make
a person's business-life a financial success
It Is a fact, seen from this standpoint.
that there is no occupation that calls for
se much self-denial and so much toil, and
presents so few attractions, m thecommon
meaning of the word, as the farmer's. In
the other occupations, mechanical, mer
cantile, or professional, whether financial
success is the result, or otherwise, a man's
lite passes more agreeably ; the society in
which he moves, the atmosphere he
breathes, and all his surroundings, are
more congenial ; literature, science, and
the arts illuminate his path ; and, if not a
financial success, his existence has
been a pleasure.
It is hoped that now the farmers are
awaking to a sense of their wrongs, and to
a better understanding oi their rights,
the time may not be very far in the future
when a farmer's home may be attractive
even to one who is accustomed to the
amenities, refinements, and elegances of
city life.
