ST. PETERSrzi‘m‘:.

emburg presents a most imposing aggro.
gate of gilded demos, tall spires, and im-
mense palaces and other public buildings.
All is vast, and arranged on a plan so
gigantic that even the loftiest builclhigs

side by side become monotonous for want
of grouping and variety. The most im-
portant part of the cityisthe southern
portion. Here are the principal buildings
and finest streets. The Court, the nobil-
ity, and half the population reside there.
This districtisdivided into three parts
by canals, which are crossed by the three
principal streets in St. Petersburg,‘radi-
ating from the Admiralty—namely, the
Neva Perspective, the Peas Street, and
the Ascension Perspective. The first of "
these is the Regent Street, of the Russian
capital, as regards life and fashion; it is
one hundred and fifty feet wide, and is
lined on each side with elegant shops,
palaces, and churches. All these three
main avenues run straight through the
city, like the spokes of a wheel, through
the sumptuous aristocratic quarter, the
commercial regions, and the outskirts
inhabited by the poor; the long vistas
terminating in the mists that rise from
the swamps outside. The city is by no
means crowded; indeed, many of the
streets present a deserted appearance.
In some quarters the silence‘is oppressive.
'It is calculated that if every man, woman
and child were out of doors at one time
the streets and public places would afford
them four hundred square feet each.
Many broad streamlined with rows of
broad mansions, are perfectly still except.
for the passage of an occasional'drojlci. In
the more crowded streets the predomi-
nance of the military element is very
striking. The ordinary garrison of the
capital is sixtythousand men, and sol-
dier‘s of various types—Torture, Circus-

- sinus, Gossacks—are constantly met with.

But beside the soldiers, the police ofiicers,
university professors, public school tomb-
ers, and pupils, allwear uniform ; in fact,
half the moving population bear a mili-
tary aspect. ' - - -

Benedict Ar'n’old was the most conspic-
uous of the traitors to this country in the
revolutionary era, but the first man
detected in an attempt to bctmy his coun-
try was Dr. Benjamin Church, of
Baynhsm, Mass. -;He was a graduate of
Harvard University-,Ystudied medicine in
London and became eminent as a surgeon.
He' lived a‘ bachelor, extravagantly and
licen’dously, in 'a fine mansion, in 1568.
For several years preceding the revolu-
tion ho was conspicuous among the lead-
ing Whigs. Of the Massachusetts
Provincial Congress he wasan active
member. At the same time hewas trusted.
as an ardent patriot, Clitirchfwndeévidently
the secret enemy of therepublicans. So
early as 1774 he wrote parodies of his own
popular songs in favor of liberty for the
tor-y newspapers; and in September, 1775,
an intercepted letter, written by him in
cyphor to Major Gain, in Boston, which
had passed through the hands of the
mistress of Church, was deciphered
and the Woman confessed that he was the
author. The case was laid before the
Continental Congress, and he was dis-
missed from the general directorship of
the hospital. " He was arrested-“rind tried
by a court martial at Cambridge on a
charge “ of holding a criminal correspon-
ge with the enemy.” He wssconvict- ,

.. a or. The Indians of Peru
had long known of the febrifngal quali-
tics of the bark, Which they called quina:
quina, bark of.barks. They communi-
cat-ed their knowledge to a Spaniard in-
lu‘gh authority, who consented to use it,
and was cured of a fevers This gentle-
ix::in, Don Juan Lopez d8 Canizares, im—
parted the information of his cure to a
physician who was in attendance on the
Countess of Cinchon, at the some time
reading the lady a parcel of the valuable
bark.

Consenting to use it, her fever was al-
loyed, and when she returned to Spam
she can-led some of the Peruvian bark
with her, and made its qualtiee known.
Linnaeus named the genus which yielded
it chinchona, in honor of the lady. . In
consequence of her introducing 1t mto
Europe it was called f‘countess’ bark.”
The Jesuits promomd greatly its mtro-
duction into Europe, hence it was some-
times called Jesuits’ bark, and many. at-
tributed its introduction to them, when,
.in reality, they only diffused its knowl-
edge and encouraged its use.-

Louis XIV. purchased the secret of
preparing the quinquina from the bark
from Dr. Talbor, an English physiclnn.

These imaginary engagements, as may lie

because one necessary consequence of
them is, that for a. whole year a bachelor"
remains bound to the service of his valen-
tine, somewhat after the fashion of a
medimvul knight of romance to his lady-
lovc. . ' ' . '
It is recorded as a rural tradition that
on St. Valentine's Day each bird of the
air chooses its mate, and hence our heale-
Iy ancestors in their lusty youth adopted
a practice which we still find peculiar to
a season when nature bursts its imprison-
ments for the coming pleasures of the
cheerful spring. Shakespere bears wit-
ness to the custom, and makes poor
Ophelia sing— .

" Good marrow; 113 St. Valentino's Day,

All in tho morning hectare.

And I a maid in your window,

To be your valentine."
At one period it was customhry for both
sexesto make each other presents,- but
latterly the obligation seems. (to. have
been'restricted to young men, .' "During
the fifteenth century this amusement was
very popular among. the upper classes,
and at many European courts. ._ From
Pepys'Diary we see that in Charles If. 's
reign, marriedas wells: single people
coidd be chosen. , -
For some time the festival has
ceasedto possess theyaceful symbolic
meaning it used to have. . The approtich
of the day is now heralded by. theiappcar-
ance in the puntse'll'erslbhopkwindows' of
vast numbers of missivee '-calculated for
use on this occasion, each generally con-
sisting of a single sheet of post-paper, on
the first page of which is seen some ridic-
ulous colored caricature of the male or
female figure, with a few burlesque verses
below, More rarely, the print is of 9'.
sentimental kind, such as a view of Hy-
m‘en’s filter. with a pair undergoing initia-
tion . into wedded happiness before it,
while Cupid flutters above, and hearts
transfixed with his darts decorate the
corners. Maid-servants and young fel-
lows interchange suoh epistles with each
other on the 14th of February, no doubt
conceiving that the joke is amazingly
good; and, generally, the newspapers do
not fail to record that the London post-
men delivered so many hundred thousand
more letters on that day than they do in
general. .
The connection of the custom with St.
Valentine is purely accidental. It has
been suggested by Mr. Douce, in his
“Illustrations of Shakespeare,” that the
custom may have descended to us from

“ Lupercalia." celebrated in the month
of February, were wont among other
things “to put the names of young wo-
men into a box, from which they were
drawn by the men as chance directed;"
and that the Christian clergy, finding it
difficult, or impossible to exterpate this
pagan practice, gave it at least a religious
aspect by substituting the names of par-
ticular saints for those of. the women; and
it is certainly a usage more or less widely
extended in the Roman Catholic Church
to select,- either on St. Valentine's Day'or
some other, a patron saint for the year,
who is termed a valentine. But it is far
more probable that the custom of choos-
ing valentines in a relic of that nature-
religion which was undoubtedly the

sprung from a recognition of the pecu-
liarity of the season.

 

moist} DAYS.

Prof. Otis T. Mason, in a recent lec-
ture, on the “ “'edding Day in all
Lands," described the various methods
of wife getting and marriage which have
been practiced with success by the mem-
bers of the human race from the lowest
state of civilization to the present time.

In Australia, when a young man is par-
ticularly in love with a young lady. he
waits around until he catches her out
without her father or any of her brothers,
and when he sees a good chance. hits .her
on the head with his club and takes her
home. Of course, when the old man
hears of it he is very indignant and turns
the tribe out after the ardent lover. The
youth is then given a small shield, and
the girl’s father and relatives stand off
and throw boomerangs and other danger-
ous missiles at him. If he is generally
disliked in the tribe he has to jump
around pretty lively to save his life, but

manage to make it easy for him.

A favorite custom in New Zealsnd, when
there are, two suitors of tolerably equal
pretensions, is that of pulling. Each of
the men seizes an arm of the maiden and
attests the ardor of his afl'ection by the
strength with which he tugs at it. 'It not
infrequently happens that the girl’s arms
are dislocated The man who loses then
takes ofl‘ hisshoe and gives itto the victbr,
to show that he renounces all claimto the
lady, and Namibia custom, it is. said by
some, the old shoe throwing at weddings.
was derived. > ‘

When a young Polynesian negro wants
a wife, he goes to the damsel's father and
fixes on a fair price. He then starts en a
year's hunting and fishing excursion, dur-
ing which he begs from all his friends

trip. takes his catch to the desired father-
in-lu-w. The old gentleman then either
gives the, youth credit for the amount, or
lets him‘ have the girl and takes a lien on.
her for the balance. I '

In former times a Swedish bridegroom
went to the church accompanied by'about
one hundred friepdsnndallies, who were
well armedfon the occasion. These con-
stituted his “best-_men,'.’.dnd if the girl
was at all good-lookingor-wvenlthy, their
prowess was generally put to the test.
The “best men" of Our day} are but a
shadow remnant 'of those stalvmrt

groomsmen.

.Pratfis Astral Oil.

In. a. circular issued June 30th, 1832, by the New York State Board of
Health, there appears the astounding statement, “It is estimated that upwards of
thirty thousand lives have been destroyed by the explosive qualities of petroleum.”

The introduction of PRATT’S ASTBAL on. was the first prac-
tical check given to this wholesale destruction of life.

It was the first safe and reliable illuminating" of! ever made;
and, although many millions of gallons have been annually sold since its intro-
duction, no person has ever suffered by an accident from Its
use, nor has any Insurance Company paid a dollar fin-
loss occasioned by it. ' '

 

 

Why, then, should any risli be taken in the choice of a burning oil when
PRATF’S ASTRAL can be obtained at the present low price?

Be sure to insist that dealers fill-nil]: you with the
“lithe article, as immense quantities of inferior oils are sold annually
as PRATT’S as'rnA'L.

Sir John Lubbock has trained a buck
poodle to present difl‘crent cards when it
desires to be fed or go out. The uprds
“food,” “out " and “bone ” are printed
on them, and the animal has been suc-
cessfully trainedto associate these cards
with the desired events of the day.

The last male Plantagenet, the son: of
Clarence and Anne of Warwick was ‘be-
headed in 1499, and his ’niece, Ursula,
married Lord Stafford. Soon his family
became so poor that in 1637 the Stafford
barony was vested in a. working cobbler,
whom the king compelled to give up the
title, as he was too poor to support itpro-
perly.

A Kansas City butcher stood close to a.

The door was just then violently opened,

The wound thus inflicted would not have
proved fatal; but the pain was great, and
the ma! crazily stabbed himself to death.

Avender of a nostrum in Baltimore
takes a position on a street corner, rolls
up his shirt sleeves, disclosing-very mus-

dumb bell. A crowd is quickly attracted
and to them he sells a medicine which, he
declares, will make anybody as strong as
he is.

,Probably the largest Oleander tree in
the world is near Spanishtown,’ Fla. It
covers a space of ground thirty-six feetin
diameter; from the ground to the tip of
the topmost limb is twenty-five feet; at
the surface of the ground the trunk is
divided into twenty or twenty-five separ-
ate stems, the group being at least five
feet through, and one single stem is, by
actual measurement, fourteen inches thick.

Campencon, the celebrated French
physiologist, states in the Paris papers
that the daughters of Erin- have, of all
women, the most beautiful hands. Next
to the Irish girls the daughters of Poland
deserve the palm. English girls have
hands tm fleshy and plump. Americans
too long and narrow, the Germans too
short and the palms too broad. There
pro more beautiful hands in France and
Ttaly than in Spain.

A farmer from Pocahontas . county,
West Virginia, appeared in Staunton the
either day searching for an auction block
and an auctioneer. He was dumb-found
edwhen told that therewere no slave
auctions in Virginia. He returned to his
mountain home, unable to sell the two
slaves he had desired to sell. He had
» cultivated his form all these years in ig-
norance of the emancipation proclama-
‘don.

An Illinois man had accumulated a few
thousands, and his health was such as to
convince him that he had not much left
of life. He picked out the scriptural
clause, “Lay up treasure in heaven,”
and believed that he could obey. The
process that he invented was to convert
‘ hiswealth into paper money and burn it-
pmyerfully on an altar. He went so far
as to build the altar and kindle a sacri-
ficial fire, but he had burned qnly $10
when hisrelatives forcibly deprived him
of his religious liberty.

John Harris, the Cornish poet, who.
was the author of one thousand and one
pieces of rhyme and prose, which were
highly praised by Longfellow, has just
died at Falmouth, aged 63, The son of
aminer, he often, in his early days of
poverty, used ink made of the juice of
blackberries. In 1861 he got the prize
for the best poem on. the tereentafy of
Shakespeare. “Although,” he says in

of hard struggles, have been content.

consfield secured him a grant of $1,000
from the Royal Bounty fund, but most of
it was lost by the suspension of the Cor-

i That-in pail as an article of kitchen
and pantry furniture is quite unknown
in England. It is seen only at oil and
paint shops, and never with a cover.
Coal with the‘English is always “coals. ”
What we term the “goiter" they call the
“boot. What we' ‘call boots they call
|“Wellingtons.” A barber shop is one
thing in London, a hair cutting saloon
is another and separate establishment.
The average English shave is a. brutal
perfor cc as compared with the Ameri-
can. The patient must arise from the
straight-backed chair, wash his oWn face
"and brush his own hair. London news-
}boys do not cry their papers—printed
placard placed on the walk notifies the
public, and the boy stands by his stock
in trade and seems to ponder over it.

lTheir “livery stable” signs read “Cars
on Hirc;” buggies are unknown. Sois a
general assortment of dry goods and gro-
ceries in one shlfi. The “haberdnsher”

keeps pins, needles, stays, takes, and all
the other minutse necessary for the lady’s
outfit. The woollen draper,’cloths. The
green grocer never goes beyond vegeta--
bles, saveto deal occasionally in coals.

Thp exceptions to this rule is are with
the co-operative stores, which deal in
everything. Inthe sale of cooked food
there are shops confining themselves to
Ibams, corned beef and a few vegetables,

served hot at noon, and to be bought
ifrom two-pennyworth upward. There
lure small shops makm‘ g a specialty of col
