panied by the more and gulf-like gaspings
of the real beef-enters inside. Nothing
could equal a boy’s disappointment on first
going into this highly colored mcuugeric,
from which he only recovered byapproach-
ing the cage of the lien or the “royal Ben-
gal tiger," and being assured by the keepers
that if he went too closcahey would break
out and tear him all to pieces. One of the
double lines of stalls in front of the - “Angel
Inn" led directly to the gateway of the yard,
into which the line was carried, the avenue
widening till double and treble lanes of
gingerbread nut and toy and confectionery
stalls filled up the yard and a waste piece
of skittlevground behind, and finally opened
into a field, at the farther ehd of which
were ranged the great shows and theatres:
Gyngell’s conjuring and feats of dancing on
the slack wire, or balancing a heavy curl-
wheel on the chin, flanked on one side by
the “Spotted Boy”? (9. young gentleman of
about nine years 'of age. whose body was
literally piepaid), the “Albinos” (two girls
with long white hair reaching to their
knees, and pink eyes), and on the other
side by the caravan of the “Irish Giant”
(Mr. Patrick O’Brien), the dwarf known as

"‘Simon Paap,” and by the house on whecl§

of the celebrated Miss Biflin, the lady who
had no arms, but who painted, wrote, and
cut out paper portraitsin profile with her
feet—not very flattering likenesses, as it
may be supposed. Penny theatres, peep-
shows, eating and drinking booths, swings,
rOundabouts;high-fliers, little round- gamb-
ling-tables, little stalls' and burrows, with
all sorts of knickknacks and quack doctors’
nostrums, filled up to the rest of the avail-
able ground. It is to be,nuderstood that a
large open space was always left in front

 

 

Great Fair- or Europe.

R. 'H. Horne in Harper’s Magazine for

"February, has a long article on the Great
Fairs of Europe, from which we condense
the following :_-, .

A Guam Fara—The jahrmarkt, or
fair, of Germany is a very different sort of
thilig from an English fair or an Italian car-
nival, or any scene of uproarious merriment
and extravagant exhibitions. There is
really very little fun in the jahrmarkt. For
my own part, I could see none. _It is not
much more than a market, except that, in-
stead of the chief features being confined to
catables, there is a preponderance in the
jabrmarkts of clothing, toys, sWeetmcats,
cakes, crockery, pipes, and Tyrolese blue
and scarlet caps. . Booksalso, especially, of
a pictorial kind,abound; indeed one of the
greatest fairs in Germany is at Leipsic,
which is expressly a “books fair.” But a
carnivalishuite another matter. I was
once at a carnival in Cologne fit was a very
gorgeous and peculiar exhibition of national
fancies, both of the poetical and grotesque.
The chief features donsisted of allegorical,
and sometimes mythological, characters, in
chariots, cars, and on triumphant thrones,
moving on wheels ; all of which were drawn
by horses in fanciful trappings, or by oxen,
and by some other animals not easily distin-
guishable, who were made to 'rescmble
bears, tigers, lions, and other wild beasts.
The figures who sat in these cars were all
attired in costumes suited to the characters
they represented; and were attended, pre-
ceded, and'followed by other figures on
horseback and on foot, bearing ‘banners
with embrbidered mottoes and devices,
bands of music. and by acrobats, who occa-
sionally' performed feats of strength and
agility as the procession moved along. The
slow progress of this haltimagn'rficent, half-
motley oortoye through the principal streets
of Cologne occupied the greater part of the
morning. It was winter, and intensely
cold. Thercbad been a hard frosts last
night, and the streets were slippery with
ice. ,No doubt all the horses were rough-
shod for the occasion; but the dresses of
some of the mythological figures, and par-
ticularly thosé of. the goddesses ~(though
personated by young German students),
must have called for no little exercise of
fortitude, as well as ahardy constitution-
Tower the afternoon every body thr mged
to som special public dinner-table, at which
(at least at the ,one where I happened to
dine) every body .wore a tall, pointed paper
fool’s cap with bells or tassels. The after-
dinner speeches were generally full of fer-
hidden political sentiments, covered up
with (wilting) absurdities and comic "sub-
jects.‘ Every body seemed to get mentally
tipsy; but it'dwas very amarkable to a

’Britisher that nobody appeared to be over-
come in the way hewas accustomed to see
at home on similar occasions.—

WINTE'n FAIRS IN Russu.-‘-'l‘he principal
of them is the fair on the ice of the river
Neva.‘ There you see races with sledges
and skates, and.witb horses, dogs, goats,
and stags,harue'ssed to different kinds of
sledge vehicles. They 'also have ‘their
horizontal roundabouts, 'and ,their perpen-
dicular high-fliers, like sedan-chairs going
up in the air and down again. But the
grand amusement of all is that of the “ice-
hills.” They are thus constructed: A

~ strong scaffolding is raised to the height of
thirty feet, with a landing at the top, ascend;
ed by a ladder. From the top of the land-
ing a sloping plane of boards is laid, about

twelve feet in width and ninety feet long,
descending in a very acute angle to the sur-
face of the fiozeu‘ river. This inclined

..plane is supported by wooden piles, decreas-

ing in height, and the sides are protected
by a parapet of planks. Upon the down

sloping plane are laid square slabs of ice,
close togethe; and then water is poured all
down the slope. This water freezes—half.
a minute or 'so of a Russian winter is quite
enough for that—and the inclia'c then pre-
sents a broad sheet of pure ice. From the
bottom of this incline the snow is cleared
awayupou the level surface of the frozen
river for the distance of six hundred feet,
and twelve feet wide (the same width as
the inclined plane). The sides of this level
course are ornamented with dark green tire
and pines. Each fair-gocr who wishes to
indulge in the national amusement provides

' himself with a peculiar sort of slcdge— more
like a butcher‘s tray than any thing else—
ascends the ladder to the landing at the top,
seats himself in his tray on the edge of the
glittering incline Ofl‘be goes l—and away
he skccls down the slope of ice. Such
velocity does he attain before arriving at
the bottom, that h‘eis not only carried along
the six hundred feet of this icy level below,
but clean up to the top of a second ice-hill
like the. first, with number slope on the.
other side, down which he skcels with the
same rapidity as before, and away again to
an equal distance on the level below. A
pguccession of these fair-goers, 'fur-mantlcd,’
Dilated in their sliding. trays, balancing
. themselves as they out along, one close

~ upon the other, yet no chance of overtaking

'eaeh other (unless by sonic very unlucky
and very unusual upset), presents a most
peculiar and extraordinary scene. When-
ever the balance does happen to be lost by
a man, down he goes all the same, to the
continued peril of his limbs or his neck, and
it is impossible to predict whereabouts his
hegdlong career will be stopped. Boys
sometimes—boys will do any thing—by
way of a delightful increase of the danger,
skate like a flash down the bright inclined

' plane, balancing themselves on one leg!

_ Snows AT THE OLD ENGLISH Fame—As
all the great shows traveled about and
visited every great fair. it is to be under.

will generally answer for all—Bartlemy,
Edmonton, Donnybrook, Glasgow, etc-
Polito’s Menagerie, with its life-sized pain 7

Q

of the grand stands of . the great shows at
the farther epd or top of the field.

DONNYBROOK FAIR—VVB must now take
a turn' through Donnybrook. All those
who were ever present will bear witness
that an Irishman “all in his glory” was
therezbut not exactly for the reason sup-
posed. In the first place, the [song which
makes thei‘shillalah" the all in all belongs
t0'a traditionary period. A few fights and
broken heads, inseparable from all English
as well as Irish fairs, of course always took
place, but the crowd was to dense .to allow
_of much damage being done. There was
not only no room for “science," but no room
to strikeablow of a real kind from the
shoulder, and “using the'toesl’ We saw
no blood flow. Something else in abun-
dance we did see flow—whisky. As for the
interior or main body of the fair, it present-
ed no features materially differing from
others previously mentioned; but the out-
skirts certainly presented something very
difl‘erent, indeed unique. The fair, as to its
great shows and booths, was held in a large
hollow or basin of green ground, on de-
scending into which you found the imme-
diate skirting: occupied by a set of very
little, very low-roofed, tomb-like booths,

potatoes, fried sausages, and oysters, cold
and scollopcd. Not a bad mixture; but the
cooking in some cases seemed to be per-
formed by individuals who had never be-
fore seen a sausage, certainly not an oys-
ter, and who fancied that smoke and peat
ashes improved the one, and sand and
sawdust the other. But cookery is by no
means the special characteristic alluded to.
It is this, and I will defy the world to pro-
duce any thing like it. Donnybrook is a
village a few miles only from Dublin. The
houses were all very small, the largest gen-
erally rising no higher than one floor above
the ground~floor rooms, ' and every house
being entirely appropriated to the use ofthe
fair-coming people. The rooms below
were devoted to. Whisky-drinking, songs,
jokes, politeness, and courtship, with a jig
in the middle; and very much the same, but
with more elaborate and constant dancing,
in the room above. .Every house presented
the same scene—yes, ever house along the
whole village; and when you came to the
narrower streets the effect was peculiar and
ludicrous in the extreme. For, observe, the
'rooms being all crowded to the last man
and women and child they could hold, and
the “dancing,” especially above stairs, being

left for the fiddler.
room tell for him, and yet he must be
ramong them. There was roomfor him as
a man, be it understood, but not 'us a fid-
dler. His elbow required space enough for
another man, and this could notbe ofl‘orded.
The problem, therefore, was solved by open-
ing the window up stpirs; the fiddler sat
out upon the window-sill, and his elbow
worked outside. The effect of this “elbow”
playing outside thc’window of every upper-
floOr, sometimes out of both upper and
ground floor of evgrybouse in a whole
street, and on both sides of the way, and
playing a similar kind of jig, surpassed any
thing of, that kind of humorziu action it had,
ever been my fortune to witness. 'If that
is not merry fun, show me what is l' The
elbows all played so true a time that, it you
had not heard a note, you would have
known that it was an- Irish 'jig by the
motion of all these jaunty and “knowing
elbows!" ' '

A last word on Donnybrook shall be de-
voted 10 one more custom,'characteristic of
the kindliuess as well as the humor of the
nation, which was manifested in a way
never seen elsewhere. Once every hour or
so a large, close-covered {police van was
driven through the fair to pick up all the
very drunken men .who were rolling about,
unable .to govern their motions. They
were at once lifted into the van, and here
many of them again found their legs, and
you heard the muflled singing and dull
thunder of their dancing inside as the philz
anthropic van passed along.

“Nary ' wait,” said Jim, “Pike‘s Peak or
bust l" '

_..\., -

I sot and thought over the matter,

And made up my mind‘ihat next day
I would see about Jim and me going :—
He’d turned in was snoozingaway.

I judged from the smile that he wore,
He was sharing the sleep of the just. ,
When I woke I observed it was late,
And I was alone there—and bust !

Unbeknowu he had doctnred my whisky,
And gone back on me thus from the start;
He had got up and got before morning,
And stolen my o'xen and cart!

You had better believe I was riled,

I’ve a sort of idea-that I cussed;

“I’m going to go for you, Jim,—

We’llsee before long who is bust.”

Why the doggoucd cuss bad absconded
Was inquired, and the miner he told ;
So the next day there started a party
To go after Jim—and the gold.
Those oxen of mine were our guides,
We got on their tracksfrom the first ;
And we followed ’em, two days behind,
Determined to ketch up—or bust !

’Twas a mighty roug‘h country to'travel,-—
All sand to thefoot of the Peak— '
Vegetation about as abundant

As that yellow fuz on your cheek.

Not a tree or a shrub-withered grass,
And never a stream you could trust ;
There was alkali something in all—

But no Peak, and no Jim—was he bust?

The-track of the wagon we followed
Would be lost tor a time, and then found——
Like the rivers that sink in that desert,
And as suddenly rise from the ground.
’Twas hotter than thunder one hour,
And the next there would come a cold gust
Slap down from the snows on the Peak;
Four days, and no Jim l—had he bust 1'. .

The next: day we sighted the wagon.
“You have got him at last, now," they
said; >
But he’s halted l—there's something the
matter— _ .
And what are those birds overhead?
Not buzzards! An ox, too, is down,—
And a leg tltough the grass there is thrust.
Halt, help! there’s a murder been done!
“Hullow, Yank!” . Silence men—Jim is
bust! -

Poor Jim! At his feet lay bisrifle,
Close by it his whip and a boot;
There were marks all around of a tussel
,With some treacherous dog of a Ute ;—--
A tomahawk sputtered with blood,—
And Jim' lying scalped in the dust,—
And daubed by himself on my_cart, '

‘ (ll-Pie.

Mr. C. D. Warner of the Hartford Coors“
gant evidently has “a mouth for pie,” and.
writes concerning it, with all the gusto of a
line lover, in one of his “Back Log Studies."
He says; “There has come over this counc
try within the last generation, as everybody
knows, a great wave of condemnation of
pie. It has taken the character of a “move-
ment,” though we have had no conventions
about it,'nor is any one, of, any of the sever-,.
al sexes among us, runniugfor president
against it. It is safe almost anywhere to
denounce pic, yet nearly everybody eats it
on occasion. A great many people think it
savors ofa life abroad to speak with horror.
of pie, dllhough they were very likely the
foremost of the Americans :in Paris, who
used to speak with more enthusiasm of the
American pic at Madame Busque’s than
of the Venus of Milo. To talk- against
pie, and still eat it. To effect dislike of
pie is something. We have no statistics
on‘ the subject, and cannot tell whether
it is 'gaining or losing in‘ the country
at large. Its disapperance in select circles
is no test.‘ The amount of writing against
it is no more a test ’of its desuetude than
‘ the number of religious tracts distributed
in a given district is a criterion 01 its
piety. We are apt to assume that certain
regions are substantially free of it. Herbert
and I, traveling north one-summer, fancied‘
we coulddraw In New England a sort of
diet; line, like the sweeping curves on the

leading pie sections. Journe'yiug toward
lhc White Mountains, we CODCIUGI d that a
line passing through BcIIOWS Falls. and.
bending a little south on either side, would
mark northward the region of perpetual
pie. I am not sure, however, that pie is not
a matter of altitude rather than latitude, as
I find that all the. bill county towns of New
England are full of those excellent women,
the very salt ofthe earth, who would feel
ready to sink in mortificstiou through their
scoured kitchen floors if visitors should
catch them without. a_ pie in the house.
The absence of pie would be more noticed-
than a scarcity of Bibles even. Without it
the housekeepers are as disilracted as th‘
boarding-housekeeper who d:cltil'ed if it.
were not for canned tomato, she would have
uothingto flyto. Well, in all this great
agitation I find Herbert, unmoved, a con-'
servstive even tothe under crust. I dare
not ask him if he eats pie at breakfast.
There are some tests, that the dearest friend-
ship may not apply.”

 

How To onEv.—'-Do' it at once. Never
wait to be told a second. time. Do just what
'you are told to do. Do not try to have your
own way, even in part. Do it cheerfully.
Do not go about it in a surly, cross, pecvisb
way. Don’t fret. and grumble, and talk
back. Only cheerful obedience can be

pleasing to God and man.

Mr. stian E. Dodge, the vocalist and
more recently a. citizen of St. Paul, Minn,
has obtained a divorce from Mrs, Dodge.
In a lawsuit about the custody of the (ML
dren he makes this solemn sin. enent on
oath: “Ever since she wits married she has
kept a six-barréled loaded revolver in her
possessiou,4wilh which she has a great
many times threatened to blow my brains
out and to shoot me.” He further deposed
that Mrs. Fanny was in the habit of beating
the 5611 whose custody she now. desires.
over the head “with a bathing-brush 20
or 30 inches long, and so severely as to
break the handle of the brus ” When this

‘weupon was not at hand, the affectionate

mother used the tongs. No wonder poor

Dodge wanted a divorce!
