“Suppose my husband had heard you ?”

“He—never fear, he's sleepin’ like an

“Oh, you naughty Teddy, begone.”

“Going mum ;” and repeating the smack
he disaprbcared down the stairway, just as
Tom called to know who was there.

“It is I, Tom dear,” I answered sweetly.

“And who else l”

“Oh only Teddy brought up the hot
water. Will you get up now before it gets
cold 12"

Tom said nomorc, but I saw he was fur-
tivcly watching me all the time I was dress-
ing. At length he said:

“What sort of a fellow is this Teddy ?"

“Oh,Tom," Iexclaimed, “the nicest fel-
low. l‘m sure when you see him you’ll
agree with me that itwill be better to dis-
charge Eben aud keep him instead; you
know we were children together.”

“My dear Jessie, ain’t you a little—I—I
thought I heard —-”

The next morning Teddy and I managed
to be in the same place on the stairs where
I had seen Tom kiss Sara Ann, and as he
opened the door, Teddy kissed me loud
enough to be heard all over the house, and
then hurried away while I went on to the
dining-room' “Tom came in presently with
an awful frown, which I pretended not to
see, and held up my face lo he kissed, but
hepushed me away from him.

“ Why, Tom ! ain’t you going to kiss
me Y" >

“Do you think I’m blind, Mrs. Wilkins l.
I saw that Teddy kiss you just now, and it‘s
not the first time either. Do you think I’ll.
stand such doing? No, I’ll break every
bone in the ra'scal’s body, if I hang for it.
and you shall go home to your mother till
you learn how to behave yourself.”
“Now, my dear Torn, where is the harm
in it ? Itbclieve in imbibing sweetness where ,
ever-I find it; so don’t'make a mountain of
a mule hill.”
You should have seen his face when he
heardme repeating his own words.
“Look here, Jessie,” he said at length,
“yOu’ve got the best of me, though it was a
hard way of giving me my lessen.”
“Not more severe than the case required
Tom. I only made you put yourself 'in my
place. '
“Well, Jessie, if it filled you with Such
intense-disgust-to see me kiss Sara Ann as
it did me to see you kiss that confounded
Teddy, I don’t wonder you were angry." '
' Well, we talked the matter over at length,

 

 

NORWALK, CONNECTICUT, TUESDAY, MAY 19,

From The Alta CalU'orm’a.
AN ORIENTAL PARADISE.

A Yankee Woman’s Experience in a
Turkish Dath.

ConsrasrmorLE,Fcb.16.-‘—I have read
certainly not less than fifty times elaborate
descriptions of genuine Turkish baths by
Bayard-Taylor, Ross Browne, and others,
and I had always had my imagination filled
with combined ecstacies of being scrubbed
with hot water and perfumed soap, and lead
sherbet, and I made up my mind not to
leave Turkey without having had that de-
lightful experience. You know that I be-
long to the softer sex, and they do not
bathe proniiscuously here as in Baden
Baden, Long Branch, and many other
fashionable places.

This bath where I wcutis for ladies alone,
and not even the common herd being ad-
mitted, for the charge is very high. I have
made a few friends among the natives since
I came here, and can speak a few words of
Greek (the predominant tongue), and owrng
to my acquaintance with them I got a
glimpse, or rather a whole day’s sight, of a
paradise where man is excluded. The ex-
terior of these baths is of the usual style, or
no style, of Turkish architecture—butthe
interior fully recompenses for the lack of
beauty without. Ills in the upper part of
Gulata, and you go in sedan chairs, which.
wait for you, as you must take the cxtrcmest
care of yourself in coming out of the bath,
particularly at this season of the year. A
cold taken aflcra Turkish bath is always
ifilial.

Four of us went, together with two ser-
vants who carried our towels, bathing
dresses and lunch. It is an all day’s job
and the ladies all take lunch with them. I
had a'number of very handsome and curious
things given me at the exposition by the
Egyptian and Turkish commissions, and

 

i among tllcm were-large bathing towels

with borders of gold woven in ; also a
bathing dress similar] decorated. My
friendsinsisted on my in ing them, and they
made of me while in the bath a person of no
ordinary importance, for as it happens, no
one but royal ladies are permitted to wear
such in public baths; however, nobody
interfered with my right to wear them, only
admired me, not always from a distance.
THE FIRST cmmnn.

On entering we were conducted to a large
room, where we- must undress and leave
our things. .I think there Were fifty women
there in all stages of undress, who all
paused to re ard us wiihcuriosity while we
disrobed. ll en can pull off their most
sacred garments, toss them into a heap, and
run about as if nothing were amiss, but
somehow I felt as Eve did when she made
the discovery that she was too thinly clad
for that time of the year.

A servant caught up our bathing dresses
and left the room, beckoning us to follow.

we ran the gauntlet of a hundred‘pair of
eyes before we reached the divan where I

was laid, like a defunct, still with no clothes
on. I raised my head to see if .I could not ,
find a friendly towel or anything, but the

mirth, and I provoked the others into my
ownestate of mind—a capacity which has
never deserted me at any time or place, or
without any person, in my life—and we
‘vere soon the maddest of the crowd in the
perfumed waters. I would be afraid to tell
all the freaks we performed and antics and
pranks we out. Although it did not in the
least startle natives, it might some who have
imagined me to be the model of perfection
in department.

But then you must remember that Mrs.
Grundy doesnot live in Constantinople, and
she has no one to tell tales out of school ex-
cept my own self, and I never tell more
than suits me. It was two full hours before
our Wild sport ended, and we slitLout of the
water and sat talking in little knots of four
or five, while the attendants were drying
our lihir, and separating it till it stood out
in a light puff all around our heads. ‘ Not a
tangle was left in it, and no comb or brush
was used: Then we were laid on tthsame
marble divans, though with a thick bathing
towcljthts time und‘cr'us, while the attend-
antsV punched and pulled, and rubbed all
our joints, and cracked all our knuckles and
elbows and shoulders, _till . I thought I
should be always even more unsteady than
ever. They don’t give you the least chance
to make protest to this sort of thing. They
"roll you and rub you, up and down and
round and round, till you only want a
chance to- get your hands free to “punch
their heads,” when all at once, panting and
perspiring they grin at yen and say pekkey,
which means “all right. ”—Olz'oa Harper.

m
Slavery and Freedom.

Dnan GAZETTE :—

The setting tree of four million of slaves
by a single stroke of the pen was a deed as
sublime as it was solemn. The salvation of
our country seemed to demand it, and it
was better:to make any sacrafice to save the
nation than to sacrafice the nation itself.
The proclamation of emancipation made
many rich men poor, and it was said that
without slavery the South would become
one vast waste; that without it neither cot-
ton nor cane could be raised, and they who
thus affirmed, uttered what they regarded as
the truth. But they were in on error. To-
day there is no lacek ither of cotton or cane :
and there is not much danger’that there will
be. More than this is true. Facts go to
show that free labor is c ‘ er than slave
labor. The first does not uire one half
the capital that the last does, and in other
respects it is equally remunerative. Let
one planter have fifty slaves, and let another

'have the same number of freedmen, and the

last, other things being equal, would raise
fifty bales of cotton as cheaply as the first.‘
A little arithmetic makes this plain. Before
the war a good field. hand cost from $1,200

LIVING STATUABY.

To lie there on, the marble and dreamily
watch the glorious white of the livmg
statues, with the long black hair and the
rich dark eyes; to see the soft, and undula-
ting motions of those swimming in the
warm, delicious water; to looleat the lovely
forms stretched at full length on the divans
and on the edge of the fountain ; and others
laughing, sporting, singing, mingling with
affectionate glances and wrestling in the
water or' upon the marblefloor, dripping
from every limb the perfumed water that
glistened on their bodies, and the trickling
of the fountains, and the rosy, subdued
light that stole in through the jealously-
guarded windows, were enough to send one
of an ima ination like mine off into the
realms of ancy. and make 'one believe it
the promised land. and cause the whole
soul to be satisfied with the enchanting
picture, which needed no imagination to
embellish. For after all what is the heaven
we have been taught to believe in but a
place where all is light and perfume and
love a'nd beauty; where every sense shall
be satisfied, and ever desire filled with a
pure and exquisite ful ness? It is true that
in this heaven ofniine there were not any
men, but I did not miss them in m supreme

. QUITMAN, GEORGIA, May. 1874.

A Granger orator, who seems to be some-
what popular with that order, gave his
opinion of lawyers ina recent speech as
follows: “The instincts of lawyers are to-
ward knavery; they extort immense sums
from their clients, which, if they are honest
men, makes them beggars, anti if thieves,
makes ,it necessary. to rob or steal again.
The lawyer works for the party that pays
the best, and none but rascals can afford to
fee a lawyer. As a class they are destitute
of honor, gen rosity and the first principles
of morality; icy are guilty of corrupting
the youth by their examples, and of prosti-
tuting the Government to, the basest purpo-
ses.” It is not at all improbable that this
granger at some time in his life narrowly es-
caped the penitentiary.

Business has grown duller and duller
every day since the democracy entered into

the use of it before admitting them into-the
