THE "VterORTA" IMAMS—TUE LAST MOMENTS OP ADMIRAL SIR 01;O1OF, MIDS.
THE KING OF SIAM AND HIS REALM.
Ile. is an interesting Young Autocrat, and.
Raps a Hoerr People.
The King of Siam is a monarch who has
more absolute power over his subjects than
the Crate Few mon in this world have as
much to make them feel big and important,

with a golden pyramid of jewels, rising in
circular tiers, diminishing as they go up•

point, which extends nearly two feet above.
the forehead of its kingly owner. His body
is clad in gorgeous coat and vast, heavily
embroidered in gold and jewels, and in place
of pantaloons he hae the rich brccaded sur•
ong of the Siamese about his loins and waist.
It comes down below his knees at the front,
and it looks not unlike a pair of fancy
knickerbockers. Below these are a pair
01 shapely calves in white silk stockings,
and his feet are thrust into jeael•oovered,
heelless slippers pointed like the shoo of the
Turk, The whole snakes a oostanhebrilliant
and grand: He is a pleasaut•looking f ellow,
and his olive -brown fano is plump and an -
'Wrinkled. He has beautiful liquil black
eyes, a broad, high, and rather fell forehead,
and short, etaight, black hair. Under his
rathershort and half -flat nose there 18 it Silky
blank moustache, and below this the lips are
rather thick, and the chin plump and well
rounded. His hands and feet are well made,
and he is, all told, a good epechnen of
Sielnesebeauty. IIe is the ninth son of Malta
Mongkut, the last King of Siam, and he
was picked out of a family of eighty-four
children to be placed upon the throne. He
has thirty-four half brothers and forty-nine
half slaters.
Looking at him it is hard to imagine that
heis the sacred ruler of from 6,000,000 to
10,000,000 of people. The people of the
country are his slaves. He has the right to
call them into his service either with or
without pay, and all men in Siam are forced
to give him either the whole or a part of
their services during the year. His word
can throw a man into chains or put him to
death ; can deprive him of his property or
rob him of his daughter. All the women of
Siam aro supposed to belong to the King,
and no ono is forbidden to him except his
mother. Bo is supposed to take one of hie
sisters as his Queen, and the nobles of the
country oiler him their daughters by the
score. His court is one of intrigue, and the
nobles are glad to have their .daughters in
the harem so that they may tiara the bettor.

offices. Re taxes the people as he pleases,
and those taxes are so heavy that at Unice

dren as slaves to enable thein to pay him,
Still, his vaults are full of treaaire. Siam
has'no national debt, and ho has an income
of more than $10,0110,000 a year. He can
spend tens of thousands of dollars in ere -
mating
mating a dead wife or in establiehiug a potty
nary.
Still, this King of Siam is the most pro.
gressive the country has ever had. He
is far in advance of his people, and he is
doing a great deal to civilize them. Before
his second coronation fn 18713 all natives
who approached the King had to do so on
all fours. They had to ruins their hands in
adoration to him and bump their heads on
the mate before him. The King dM away
with all that, andhe has introduced theEng•
lisp handshake into his reception of foreign.
era. He gives receptions to foreigners, and
bespeaks the English tongue, though he never
does this when noted foreigners have an
audience with him. Ho has brought the
telegraph and the telephone into Bangkok,
has established a etreet•ear line, and lights
his harem with electric lights.
The King of Siam is a Buddhist, and he
was for some time a Buddhist priest, as hi
the custom with all linen in Siam. Every
one is expected at some time to enter the
priesthood, end this royal monarch, with
his millons of treasure, his scores of wives,
and his 510,000,000 a year, once shaved his
head and nominally gave up his crown
and his harem to wear a yellow cotton
scarf 011001 his waist and td go fasting and
praying. The Siamese priests are plotnr•
eaquo, as well as devout. The priesthood
is useful to tarried men. A man eau bo
divorced whenever he likes by entering
the priesthood for a month or so. Nobles
do not require any such formality.
The great event in the life of a fiiamese
is the function of having his hair out. On
the top of a Siamese baby's head it certain
look of hair is preserved. All the rest of
the head is shaved, but the leek is kept
sacred until he reaches the age when ho of-
ficially passes from boyhood to manhood.
Then off comes the look. The celebrations
attending the hair cutting of the present
King lasted throe clays.
The King of Siam has a very large assort-
ment of wives, but he is so high and mighty
that he must marry nobody beneath him in
rank, his only equals being his own family.
His regular otSoial Queen mnst,therefore,al-
ways be his half-sister. The Queen is not
far from 20 years of age; alto rules the
harem, and she is a very pretty Siamese
girl. Her complexion is a light brown, and
her oily black hair, about two inches long,
stands straight up and combed backward
from a fair, open forehead. She hos bean•
tiful eyes, wears diamond earrings and has
a diamond pendant at her nook,, and her
fingers are covered With precious stones.
She smokes cigarettes as does also the Bing,
and she chows the betel nut, making her
teeth as black as jet and her lips Wok out,
The Siamese say that any dog can have
white teeth, but that it is only those who
are rich cone n to afford the betel nub who
can have black ones.
The debtor class of Siam afford a greet
contrast to all this gorgeousness, They
are strtpped naked, and, chained to heavy
logs, are compelled to work as slaves. The

13irde, from their strange motto of flight
and their power of rising above the olouds
and soaring towards the heavens, have ever
been associated with the supernatural and
regarded as a sort of connecting link be-
tween the inhabitants of colesttal regions
and the less fortunate beings of earth. The
ancionto, eaysCurrentLiterature, consider-
ed them as partaking of the divinity of
their gods, and included them in a great
many of their myths and legends. The ks-
qulnnaux say that all living beings have the
faculty of tarralr (soul), but especially birds.
As they have ever been thought messengers
from the upper world and interpreters of its
decrees, their notes and flights have been
anxiously observed as omens of grave int.
port. In Mexico and Peru there was a
college of Augurs, somewhat aimitarin pur-
pose to the auspices of ancient Rorie,
which practised no other means of divin-
ation than watching the course and
professing to interpret the songs of
birds. Especially among savage nations and
tribes there aro many different species of
birds that aro supposed to receive the souls
of the departing ; they religiously ebstaiu
from doing injury to these. Iii Brazil there
is a cortin bird, whose mournful chant
is often hoard during the night,
whioh is supposed to bring news
from deceased persons to their sorrowing
friends. Another small wood bird is said by
the Powlhatans to receive the seine of their
princes after death. As the bird is like the
wind that sweeps through space, sings in the
forest or rustles in Its course; litre the cloud
thatfloats in mid air, or like the lightning
as it darts front heaven to earth to strike its
unsuspecting prey, the Algonhins affirm
that birds make the winds, that they create
the waterspouts, and that the clouds are the
spreading and agitation of their wings.
The natives of the North -'vest explain
the thunder as the flaPping of the
wings of a giant bird, and the light-
ning as the flash of his eye. Jove's
bird—the eagle—seems to be universally
recognized as the emblem of majesty aid
energy. Formed by nature for braving the
severest cold ; feeding alike onprodnoe of
land and sea; possessing powers of flight

Kau pass from Bummer to winter, from the
lower to the higherregions, and fromtlhence
descend at will to the torrid or arctic re -
ions of the earth. The Finnish epic of
Kalewaln says that the eagle floated over
the waves and hatched the land. Tho Nora -
jos say that et each cardinal pointstands a
white swan, who is the spirit of the winds
which blow from its dwellin=, As the
eagle is regarded as the particular bird of
Jove, no, among the Aztecs, Peruvians, and
many other nations, the owl is consider-
ed as sacred to the lord of the dead. "The
Otvl I" was one of the named the Mexican
Pluto, whose realm was in the north, and
the wind from that quarter was supposed
to be made by the owl, as the south
was by the butterfly. Tho Chippeways
called the bridge whioh they said the souls
of the departed must cross to arrive at
the laud of the spirits the "Owl
Bridge." L+verywhere the owl is regardedas
the character of wisdom; probably from
the way it stares and bltnke in the
light, or perhaps, from the fag that it works
while others Bleep, Among the Indians
the stuffed skin of one of these is carried
by the Greek priests as a hedge of their
learned profession. They are also eaid to
place one above the " medicine stone " in
the council lodge. Bub probably there is
no people who look upon the bird with
greater veneration, or associate it with the
supernatural, more than the wild western
tribes. They, from their very manner of
life, are on intimate terms with it; they
daily see inatannes of its dumb certainty
and unerring instinct; indeed, they have a

and the howlings of wild boasts, and that
he may at will change himself into bird or

Drunken Oysters. ,
"I do believe," said an oyster•growor to
a reporter, "Ghat whisky will make any-

had in that line was with an oyster bed

cats spoiled in their growth by whisky, and
dos kept small, I have seen talkative
poll parrots bowled up until they fell off
their porolt, and lay squeaking and ha-ha•
ing at the bottom of the oago nt the most
delirious manner; but I never saw an
oyster bowl up except in restaurants, and
even then the oyster didn't know it, I
resolved t0 see what effect whisky would
have on a small bed that I had for my own
personal use. 1 got soma Malt whisky ono

you touch an oyster's shell, it closes up

CAPE HORN'S POST OPlfIOE,

Postmaster Attached.
In spite of improved modern methods of
communication, the southern extremity of
South America still retains its flavor of
aloofness and romance. The trip around'
the Horn, still necessarily made by sailing
vessels becauso they cannot so easily tread
the mazes of the Straits of Magellan, is no
easier than it was to the early navigators,
save that perhaps modern sailing ships are
safer and more manageable than those of
the sixeenth century. Even yet, however,
sailing ships may hover vainly elf tho Horn
for the better part of a month, and that
ouriousinternational mail box kept at the
Horn still has its uses.
Landsmen who have heard of this
singular survival are tempted to doubt its
existence, but sailors persistently affirm
that it is still there. Cape Horn is a great
mass of rook rising abruptly from the sea
and forming a email island. Upon one of
the ledges of this rook stands a covered
barrel, the international Post Office of a

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been
able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and
harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most
delicate individual. Nine -tenths of all the ailments to which the human
family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges-
ti n. When there is an insufficient supply cf nerve food in the blood, a
general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the
result, Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the
right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments
disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all
the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the
first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not con-
tain
ontain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair
the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves.
For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied.
This South American Nervine has been fonncd by analysis to contain the
essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts
for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous den
rangement.
