a
je D—ee-a-y. a Fine Manners.
Perhaps one of the most la,menta,ble,
if not the most marked, feature in the
decay of fine manners is fol be observed
tlie change which has come over the
tatesner of men towards womeu, or let
sne say, for fear I shouli be misunder-
',-st0oa, of gentlemen towards ladies. We
will not conjure a storm of remons-
trance by presuming to decide who
Jrst began it." But we need not be
afraid to say, that even supposiu.g it
was niett who first led the decline down.
the path of excessive familiarity, wo-
men have so affably followed their load
that it has become exceedingly difficult
for &man to preserve with some women
that distance which every well-bred per-
son feels, and every thoughtful person
must grant,is indis-pensable to the main-
tenance of the sexes. When a woman
atayfully tells you you are a " pig " and
Laddresees you with exquisite humor,
"oh, you beast!" it is difficult to ob-
serve towards her that fineness of man-
ner, which you imagined -was her due.
If she may call you by such affectionate
names, what may you not call her in
turn? Why should you trouble yourself
to be deeorous in the presence of a per -
to whom dem-um is apparently
of so little moment? Why should
you not swear, loll, expectorate—if you
like go to sleep ? Why shoald yeti hand
her a chair if she wantstone t you
prob-
ably- tells you, "I can get it Myself."
Why should you not take her at her
word? Why rise whereshe sits'? You are
tired, or at; any rate you: find. it in-
convenient. It is a nuisance to have
to put oneself about so for wofnen, and
certainly when women cease to thank
you for d.oing so; one of the motives for
suffering inconvenience has passed
' - away. This is no question of morals.
I dare say women are as good as ever
-they were. I believe they are. But
their manners are indisputably decay-
ing. They no longer silently exact that
deference from men which is every Wo-
man's• natural right, and which no sa-
gacious woman ever forfeits. She will
not long receive it, even if she hankers
afterit, from laer "pig" and her "beast"
The consequence is that men swagger in
the presence of women to a degree that
even the women we speak of fiud offen-
sive.' They have corrupted men's man-
ners ; and then they complain of the
carruption. Corruptio optima passima
et; and there is nothing so sad as lack
of fine manners in a geutleman, except
the lack of them in a lady..
Wherein eonsist good, manners ? I
think it will be found that the secret or
essence of good. manners, as of gooduess
in. all other things, consists iu. suitable-
ness, or, in other words, of harmony.
When. we speak of harmony, we neces-
sarily imply a relation. between two
things: We signify that the relation be-
tween them is what it should bo; that
the just proportion between them has
been observed ; and that out of this
justness of proportion, this relation as it
should be;: springs what is designated. by
the significant word proprietry.—Corn-

A Modern Munch.a.u_sen.
One of the Boston restaurants -boasts
of an Iiish Munchausen, who acts in
the humble capacity of waiter, and adds
much -to _the , entertainment of guests.
One of them being served with a small
lobster, asked:
"Do you call that a lobster, Mike V'
"Pala, I believe they do be callin'
thim IobsTers here, surr, We call 'em
crabs at home."
" Oh," said the diner yon have lob-
sters in Ireland ?"
"Is it lobsters? Begorra the creek is
fall of 'mu. Many a time I've seen 'cm
whin I've leaped over the stip:eines." .
"How large do the lobsters grow in
Ireland ?"
" Well," said Mike, thoughtfully, "to
spake widin bounds, surr, I say a mat-
ter of five or six feet."
"What I five or six feet; how do they
get around in those creeks ?I'
"Bedad, surr, the creeks in Ireland,
are fifty or sixty:feet wide,"said. the un-
abashed Mike.

Advice to Young Skaters.
Never try to skate in two direc-
tions at once. This always ends in
eorro-w.
Eat a few apples for refreshment's
sake while skating, Bala basure to throw
the cores on the ice for fast skaters to
break their necks over.'
Sit down occasionally, no matter
where. There is no law to pre-
vent new beginners from. sitting down
whenever they have an inclination to
do so.
Skate over all the small boys at Once:
Knock 'em down. It makes greatfun,
and they like it.

opportuaity there Of seeing anything of
interest in that line. She does not have
her neck and. arms uncovered even when
in full dress at dinners or parties, but I
saw the young ladies who were visiting
her last spring at an evening party wear -
Mg low waists and short sleeves. From
this I argue that Mrs. Hayes has no in-
tention of entering a protest against
amusementsor decollete dresses.

It is related by elderly citizens of a
New England town, that on a certain
occasion Rev. Dr. Bacus had been lay-
ing out and. decorating the grounds
about his house at a considerable out-
lay of labor and. expense. On the very
first night after the completion of the
work, when the grounds had been taste-
fully graded and. terraced and sodded
and planted, a herd. of vagrant swine
broke the enclosure, and industriously
rooted. the fair territory into a wilder -
nese of un.sightly gullies and hammocks.
The next morning, as the good doctor
stepped out upon his porch, one sweep-
ing glance sufficed to furnish a full and

The author "That Lass o'
Lowrie's" is the subject ::of
pleasant and probably truthful
gossip in the Cincinnati " Commer-
cial." Frances Hodgson was born in
Manchester, England, not yet 30 years
ago; her father died when she was
five years old, and left her mother with
a young family to take care of. The fu-
ture novelist learned the Lancashire
dialect in the streets of -Manchester,
and. not in the mining regions, for she
has -never' seen a mine. She was 15
when the family crossed. the water, at
the invitation of au uncle, who was
plunged in business reverses when they
arrived, *ma they had to get along in a
.strange country as they best could.
They went to Knoxville, Tenn., and

At this moment when the. question
of population is being considered,:the
following instance of almost alarming
fecundity will be of interest. Fredor
Vassiloff, a peasant in Moscow, married
twice; his first wife presented. hira with
twins 16 times, triplets 7 times, and
truadruplets 4 times, in all 69 children.
His second wife presented him with 18
children, making a grand. total of 87
children, 83 of whom. were alive in 1872.
This statement is autlaentie, being given
in the statistical report. The father
at the date above mentioned was 75
years of age.
