A Foreign Table Luxury—Where the Plant Grows—How it is Brought to Market. From the New York Trivane. “The importation of truffles to this country is on the increase,” said Jacob Meyer, who, until recentiy, was engaged in raising them in Ger- many, near Hanover. ‘They are looked upon as a great luxury in Europe, and I have often wondered why they were not more used here.” “What are trufiles?” They are afungous growth, similar to the mushroom, and are found generaily in soil im- pregnated with lime, and always in the neigh- | borhood of oak or beech trees. They are found under the ground, at a distance varying froman inch to a toot, and are supposed to be a parasite living in their early stage upon the roots of trees. They are ovlong or spherical, and vary from the size of an Enzlish waluut to that of a larze potato. Quite trequently Ihave known them to welgh two pounds, and once I found one that weighed three anda half pounds. Some are of a dull white color, but the black or brown trufile has the finest flavor and brings the best ‘ce.

The female nagger is the exact counterpart of the male bully. The household bully of the ordinary variety may be described as one who is maniacally intolerant of household defects in small things, who has a ludicrously inflated notion of what is due to him as the bread-win- ner and central pillar of the establishment, and who has never seriously attempted the disci- pline of controlling his more disagreeable humors. Mean and contemptible as trom the point of view of the social moralist, this creature Is, he is not probably the cause of as much positive discomfort, and even mise! his equivalent. or supe- rior, In petticoats. Men worry and fidget, ocea- sionally rap out violent words with ill-condi- tioned ve and, in the judgment ot fem- inine crities, generally demean themselves as | brates. Bu nagging, as a fine art, is to be studied, women alone can illustrate it in its erfection. The first thing to be said about this delightful little feminine idio- synerasy is that it is not so much a momentary failing of temper as an in- born trait of disposition. The lady who naga in the most accompitshed and the most aggress- sive fashion never give way to violence, and is famous for the ease and evenness of her spirit. She is tranquility and dignity personifled. It her manner is ever criticised she remarks with perfect truth that she has done nothing, said nothing and that she only wishes to be lert alone. But articulate speech is quite unneces- sary for the most trying attzcks which the nag- ger can make. A certain tittle laugh, the slightest of noises which accompanies the pro cess of clearing the throat, a look of persistent. silence, may be quite enough. To nag effectu- ally there must be a distinct kind of “raw” es- tablisked, and when this has been done it will depend almost exclusively upon the artistic aptitude of the nagger whether enough cayenne pepper is rubbed into the sensitive part. Nag- ging, in other words, must be relative. The lady who nags must know when and whether she can render the existence of her victim a temporary burden by speech or silence.

Wild and Weird Performances at 2 Camp-Meeting. Florida Letter to San Francisco Chronicle. After dinner it was arranged by a few among the crowd to go to camp-meeting, which was held about a mile from the house. Accordingly vehicles were made ready and away we started. Long before we arrived upon the grounds we were made aware ot the vicinity by stentorian shouts, and presently we came in sight of the sheds, log huts and cottages built for the ac- commodation ot the Key ag The Florida darky knows his value and does not look iy or bow down to the white population asa rule, like his black brotiers of southern states. Not he; rather patronizes them, except in the cases of oid family slaves who have not outlived their good manners. It must have been one of these, an aged man with stooping shoulders and a pa- triarchal face, who invited us to “witness de ex- elcises.” We had already ‘‘witnessed” some of the exercises of a few outsiders who were very fall of whisky, but they were probably not‘of the brothers. There were no seats. The people were standing. reclining on the ground and in some in- stanceskneeling. An African preacher with a pe- culiar countenanceand immense ears was holding forth on “De Day ob Jedgment.” ‘‘Yo'll be dar, Broder John; ’n you, Sister Sally Mudge, ’n yo'll hef to *parbefo"de great jedge ob all de yeth, ’n wha’ll yo’ say fo’ yo’self when he axes Yo’ 10’ yo" record?

Dar ain’t no hills, nor rocks, nor mountains her’, but de san’ is mighty shitty 'n de ean mighty hot; but dar’s a place hotter’n Floridy.” Terrible groans burst forth at this, and as the daring preacher pictured the torments of that opposite condition to para- dise the yells and shouts and even shrieks be- came deafening. One big black woman, whose vociferations were louder than the rest, man- aged to keep one eye on us and one on the preacher during the entire sermon. The preacher's description of heaven was amusing, the principal delights of that region seeming to consist in having no work to do, no corn to shuck, no 'taters to hoe, no cotton to pick, and the hallelujahs were correspondingly intensified. Then the singing! The most graphic pen could not do justice to that. One song, in which even the children participated, swinging and rolling their small black bodies, was some- thing like this Ho, wo! Come tnto dis meetin’, Come, pore souls; Come, git yo" sins all pardoned, 2, pure souls; big cross onward, cospel train, oht Come, pore souls. And soon, to a wailing, dirge-like tune. I did not hear any very cheerful music, but all words were. Presently the sexes separated, the men standing off in a circle, the women urassing: ther, led by a tall crone of a most unearthly | countenance, her hair carried up from her tem- ples to a point, two long tusks falling over her | lower lip and growing longer every time she opened her mouth. This strange woman began the exercises, lifting one hand after the other, | wagging her head, stamping right and left,with a curious monotony, and soon every woman and | child in the meeting ‘engaged in the holy dance, he men lookingon and appearing to be affected | by the rhapsodies of their wives, sisters, sweet- | hearts and children. The Castile Soap Delusion. Fronrthe Edinburgh Review. By some unaccountable means there has been handed from generation to generation two very erroneous ideas concerning castile soap. One error is that the materials of which it is compoxed are invariably of the best; the other, that it is beneficial to the skin, and conse- quently desirable for the toilet. These two errors have so taken hold of the popular mind that it is customary to provide a piece of the “white castile soap” to’ wash the new-born Infant, and this is usually done by the advice or sanction of the family physician, who has imbibed the prejudice from his preceptor and recommends it asa matter of course, without using his own judgment. It is now, however, becoming a doubt among physicians and nurses as to whether the tavor- able opinion about castile soap is not entirely at variance with the true facts of the case, and it isa settled opinion with some that castile soap is really responsible for many skin diseases that are prevalent, even ainong persons whose occupation should cause them to be free from such unwelcome and annoying complaints. Ministers and lawyers. bankers and artists, and men and women whose occupations (or want of occupation) would seem to preclude almost any possibility of such ungenteel diseases as salt- theum, tetter, ete., still, inspite of thelr appa- | rent exemption from exposure, are as likely as | any, not only to have these or worse skin troubles, but to sufferwith them for years. Infants, even thechikiren of the wealthy, sur- rounded by all that money can provide, are seen afllicted with eruptions and sores, or ren- dered hideous by ugly scabs, that seemingly cannot be either accounted tor or relieved, We advise the blame to be put in such cases to their favorite soap, where it usually properly belongs, for in ninety-nine cases out of a hun- dred, skin diseases will be found to arise solely from soap, and no matter how highly any par- ticular kind of soap is regarded, a person with a skin trouble should at once make a change. - It is realiy very doubtful if any vegetable oll is adapted for a soap intended for the skin, even if the oii is fresh and sweet, but there is very little doubt that even the very best brands of white castile soap are made from rancid olive oli, which, being of too poor quality for table use, is used for making soap. The best im- ported castile soap costs the importers only from ten to twelve cents a pound, all over that pald by the public being profit to the importer and retail nd pure sweet olive oil brings too. much to enable it to be made into castile soap and sold at aiy such price. We trust this article will induce physicians to give this subject the consideration that it deserves, and we feel con- fident that the result will amply repay them for their trouble. Carrying Bundles. From Every Other Saturday, Many people have a contemptible fear of being seen to carry any bundle, however small, having the absurd idea that there is a social degreda- tion in the act. The most trifing as well as weighty packages must be sent home to them, no matter how much to the inconvenience of others. This arises from a low kind of pride. There is a pride that is higher; that arises from a consciousness of there being something in the individual not tobe affected by such accidents— worth and weight of character. This latter pride was once exhibited by the son of Jerome Napo- leon Bonaparte. While in college he was one day carrying to his room a broom he had just purchased when he met a friend, who, noticing the broom, with surprise ex- claimed: “Why did you not have it sent home?” “TI am not ashamed to carry home that which belongs to me,” was the reply. A young friend once told us, that, after being born within a pistol shot ef Boston Common, after playing in boyhood about tne frog pond, after going to the Boston Latin school, atter graduating at Harvard college, —finding that his education made him adverse to carrying bun- dies down Beacon street, to his father’s resi- dence, he concluded it was about time “to go West”—and he went. After a few years’ resi- dence there, he learned that this country was quite large; that there was a good many people in it; that there a young man was Judged on his own merits; that it was nothing against him if his father had been unfortunate enough to have been hanged; that it did not count for or against him if his father nad been a highly re- spected citizen or even one of those “literary” feliers.” On his return to the scenes of his early childhood, he found, if necessary, conve- nent or desirable, he could carry a’ bundle ome. a Actors and Mental Work, From the New York Graphic, Professionals who are stars find it painful to be repeating the same character year after year. There is something about it that robs a good actor of his vigor, and, strange as it may seem, it not only injures the memory, but it affects the mind. Mr. Sims Reev the great English tenor, once declared that he had sung “My Pretty Jane” so many times that it juired a great effort on his part to get thro it—in fact, he forgot the words of the song.

Jump in!” he exclaimed, with a start, as a visitor placed his foot upon the iron step of the cab. “I don’t care to go anywhere. I only want to ask a question.” “What?” ee many hours’ sleep do you average per night?” “I suppose you think I don’t get much be- cause you caught me takinga few winks on the box here, but this has been a big day with me.” poet cht a ‘sl “Yes; I caught a‘sleeper.’” “A what?” “Don't know what a sleeper is?” and the driver regarded his questioner with half-concealed disdain. ‘Why a ‘sleeper’ is a feller that banks in a cab, goes to bed in it, makes a hotel out of it; no trouble, no clerk, no ster; just walks in, props himself up comfortable and begins snorin’.” = “But last night?” “It was near 4 o'clock thie morning when this chap aed * soeene Chestnut os stout, round, jolly, middle-aged man. He car- ried a hand-bag, and as he jumped in he sald: ‘Take the car track down to the Delaware.’ Then he made me give him the horse blanket, offered me a pull from his pocket-flask, clapped a little silk cap on his head and sald ‘Good night.’ Then I knew I had a sleeper. “At the foot of Chestnut street I stopped and half way turned out of the track, but before I could ask him a question he pops his head out and says: ‘Drive to the Schuylkill; keep on the track.” And I drove and I drove, until I bet Lucy there knows every cobble on Chestnut stfeet between the Delaware and the Schuylkill. “At eight o'clock this morning he again pops his head out and says: ‘Put me down at Broad and Chestnut.’ He paid me square by the hour, and when I last saw him he was going down Broad street swinging his hand-satchel in a cheerful kind ot way and looking as fresh as ii he had slept in the best room of the Lafayette. —<—<$ Jefferson Davis’ Military Policy. Gen. Beauregard, in The Century. No people ever warred for independence with more relative advantages than the confederates, and if, as @ military question, they:-must have failed, then no country must aim at freedom by means of war. We were one in septiment as in territory, starting out not with a struggling smote the ear with sadness, no matter what the | S2™iuistration of doubtful authority, but with our ancient state governments and a fully organized central government. As a military question, it was in no sense a civil war, but a war between two countries—for conquest on one side, for self-preservation on the other. The south, with its great material resources, its defensive means.of mountains, waterways, rail- | roads, and telegraph, with the immense ad- vantage of the interior lines ot war, would be open to discredit as a people if its failure could not be explained otherwise than by mere mate- rial contrast. The great Frederick, at the head of a little people, not only beat back a combina- tion of several great military powers, but conquered and Kept territory, and Napo- leon held combins Europe at the feet of France till his blind ambition over- leaped itself. It may be said that the south had no Fredericls or Napoleons, but it had at least as good commanders as its adversary. Nor was it the fault of our soldiers or peo- ple. Our soldiers were az brave and intelligent as ever bore arms, and if orily for reasons al- ready mentioned they had a determination su- perior to the enemy's. Our people bore a deyo- tion to the cause never surpassed, and which no war-making monarch ever had for his support; they gave their all, even the last striplings under the family roofs fliling the ranks voided by the fall of their fathers and brothers. But the narrow military view ofthe head of the goy- ernment, which illustrated itself in the outset by ordering from Europe, not 100,000 or 1.600.- 000, but 10:000 stands of arms, as an increase upon 8,000, its first estimate, was equally nar- row and consequently timid in its employment of our armies. The moral and material forces actually engaged in the war made our success a moral certainty, but for the timid policy which —ignoring strategy as a science and boldness of enterprise as its ally—could never be brought to view the whole theater of war as one subject, of whieh all points were but integral parts, or to hazard for the time points relatively unimpor- tant for the purpose of gathering for an over- whelming and rapid stroke at some decisive point; and which, again, with characteristic mis-elation, would push a victorious force dl- rectly forward into unsupported and disastrous operations, instead of using its victory to spare from it strength sufficient to secure an equally important success in another quarter. arg ees Old Notions Concerning Bridemaids, Casnell’s Family Magazine for Novewber. Importance was formerly attached to the colors which the bride wore on her wedding day. Thus, in an old book entitled “Fifteen Comforts of Marriage,” a bride and her bridemaids are represented conversing together respecting the colors to beused for the decoration of the bridal dress. It was finally decided, after var- fous colors had been rejected, “to minglea gold tissue with grass green.” this being con- sidered symbolical of youthful jollity. Again, that the office ofa bridemaid was in times past not altogether a sine qua non may be gathered from the fact that during the period of the wedding festivities, which often extended over a week, the bridemaids were expected to bein attendance, and todo whatever they eould to promote their success. Then there was the custom of “flinging the stocking.” at which the bridemaids took a prominent lead; a ceremony to which no’ small importance wasattached. It has been made the subject of frequent allusion by our old writers, and one rhyme, describing a wedding, tells us: “But still the stockings are to throw; Some throw tco high, and some too low, ‘There’s none could hit the mark.” Misson further informs us that if the bride- groom’s stocking, thrown by one of the bride- maids, fell upon his head, it was regarded as an omen that she herself would soon be mar- ried, and a similar prognostic was taken from the falling ot the brides stocking, thrown by one of the groomsmen. It was the bridemaids’ duty, too, to present the bride with the ‘bene- diction posset,” so called trom the words uttered over it; a practice thus noticed by Her- rick, in his “Hesperides”: “What short sweet rs shall be sald, ‘And how tie posset shall be made ‘With cream of lilies, not of kine, And maiden’s blush for spiced-wine.” Suckling thus alludes to this custom: “Tn came the bridemaids with the posset, ‘The bridegroom eat in spigh.” Once more, the bridemaids were supposed to look after the bride’s pecuniary interests. Thus, at the church porch, when the bridegroom pro- duced the ring and other articles relating to his marriage, the chief bridematd took charge of the “dow-purse,” which was publiely given to the bride as an instalment of her pin-money. Horace Walpole, writing to Miss Berry in the year 1791, speaks of the dow-purse as a thing of the , and writes as follows: ur wedding is over very eropeny, though with little ceremony, and nothing of ancient fashion but two bridemalds. The endowing purse, I believe. has been left off since broad pieces were called in and melted down.” It has been pointed out, however, that a survival of this usage is preserved in Cumber- land. The bridegroom provides, himself with gold and crown pieces, when the service Teaches the point, “with all my worldly goods I thee endow,” he takes the money, hands the clergyman his fee, and pours the rest into a handkerchief which the bridematd holds for the ie. In Scotland, the bridemaid is popularly known. as the “best maid,” and one of her principal duties was to convey the bride’s presents on the wedding to her future home. The first article generally taken into the house was a vessel of salt, a portion of which was sprinkled over the floor, as a protection inst the “evil eye.” She also attended the bride when she called on her friends, and gave a personal inyi- tation to her wedding. + —__—— roo ——— ‘When to Begin Geing to School.
