Hie Yulurot-s, or rubber hunters of Couta Rica are tho most irresponsible and ignorant of creatures, whose first object, when out on an cxHlition, is to secure as much caoutchouc as jossible, and next to dainape the prospects of other Yuluroes, regardless of the future. A thrift y tree at its first cutting ought to yield not less than fifty pounds of rubber; but the hunters of today find few so profitable, unless luey peiietrato far into the virgin for ebts, and are fortunate enough to dis cover an entirely new district. In tho sections already worked meet of the trees have been tapjied several times, and many of them were spoiled at the outset by having been cut too young because its greedy discoverer feared that if the prize were left to attaiu perfection another might securo it. Were tho matter regu lated by judicious laws, so that only ma ture trees might be tapped, and those not to an extent to cause death, the produc tion of caoutchouc would soon be a sourco of wealth to the republic The Costa Rican government begins to be alive to this fact, and lias recently offered extensive grants of land to any who will devote themselves to the culture of rub ber trees. Among the inhabitants of Central America the Yularoes form a distinct class, by all odds the lowest in tho coun try, unless it may bo the Caribs of Guat emala or the pearl divers of the western coast. They are mostly half breeds or negroes, for white men seldom engage in it, though the business might be made extremely profitable. A Yularo can bo distinguished at a glunco from natives of other "professions" as easily as a cowboy in genteel society or a miller fresh from Jijs inil), not only by his general air of dare devil don't-careritiveness, but by the thick coating of caoutchouc that covers his clothing from head to foot. Tli is extra coating accumulates grad ually by contact with the rubber trees, without intention on the part of tho wearer, and in time renders his garments absolutely waterproof and almost inde structible. The hunters, are fitted out by the tlirewd traders of Parismina, niqch as American miners used to be supplied witli "grub stake" in their seaich for precious metals. Each Yularo is pro vided with a gun, a quantity of ammu nition, a boat ant a sufficient supply pf salt, flour and pork to suafajn him from two to six months. All this is charged to his account at the highest marked price, and in return lie stimulates to se to this same accommodating dealer, at some fixed sum per Kund, all the caout chouc he may collect during Ids trip. A journey to tho woods may occupy weeks or months, according to the will pf the Yuhu'Qi after which he returns q the village, not to leave jt again till the ast pent is spent which he has earne, or can beg, steal pr borrow, and al hp prpd it exhausted Jhat ie pat) pbtajn. by promises iijxm the next expedition. It Is not strange, however, that they are reluc tant to return to such dangerous exiles, for under every leaf of tho tropical for est some venomous creature is lurking, and eternal vigilance is the price of safe ty. The hunter's life js little above that pf the wild beast's, whose ' howls make night hideous arpund him, and he is con stantly exposed q a thousand perils, seen and unseen. Not pnly are there jiungry jaguars and pumas, wjltj fjears and other powerful animals, but, more o be dreaded, are the deadly reptiles, eoaie of them no longer than your hiiU. There are tiny lizards, the exact color of the loaves under which they hide, whose bite is fatal ; innumerable bugs, beetles and insects, many of them more danger ous than the rattler of our northern wjlds, which at least gives come warning of his intention to strike, while even iijor'c to be feared ' than the monstrous crocodiles pf the lagoons and the enor mous serpents of hugging proclivities, aro (lie fevers hat nightly stalk abroad, with the npxicJus yapor of fhp terj calk nte. Aside from tho scant rations he brings, tho Vujarp's food consists mainly pf wild hogH, or such other animals as ho may be a Me to kill, eked out by tortillas, and. as .n occasional luxury, a uisn or reu beans stewed in fat. Monkeys aro con sidered the choicest of morccaux, par ticularly the largo red species, which are as highly relished by the hunters as are raccoons by southern darkleaj'pc T'l'WV3' gt vaijj turkeys by Jew Englandevs. T:.o Yularo has no other implement than a short rope of cactus fiber, of his own twisting, and a huge machete the latti r a rude sort of sword or knife which every Central American who is engaged in ::iy out door occupation carries upon ail ccasions. The huntej; ties pn$ f jf l!ie rojie around his waist, fhrpws Uija oth'.T over the lower branches and scram bles up the tree, machete in hand.

Moore, is our authority for the following remark able incident which occurred about 700 miles north northwest of Capo Flattery, lie states tliat the attention of the crew was simultaneously directed or attracted to tho existence of blood floating on the adjacent sea. Speculation was rife as to the immediate origin of so strange a spec tacle, and a careful watch was kept to ascertain it. Eventually it was found that a whale was blowing and spouting on the lee side of the schooner, w lie re the blood was first noticed, and a partial solution of the phenomenon was gamed when a sword- fish darted up close, and following that terror of the seas came the enemy of whalcdom, the thrasher (or killer, as the fish is sometimes designated). Tho thrasher sprang from the water some' ten feet into the air, and with a jtene- trating crash alighted upon the whale. A tierce conflict cn.suea, and the re sult was that the whale apjiearcd to lie exhausted from the attack the thrasher made upon him. Recovering himself,' however, the whale, after several efforts, succeeded in diving below and came tfcl on the 6tarboard side of the schooner. The crew then took their whaling iron and struck at the thrasher, but unfortu nately did not hit on a vital part. The thrasher, following the whale, made another savage attack on his victim, and hit for a second time within the sight of the crew. The whale appeared at this juncture to be in extremities, and the swordfish, realizing the position, made a further attack at the common enemy and stabbed the Jonah swallowing monster. All was now over; the whale's remain ing strength was gone, and he was com pelled to succumb to his fate with the grace of a doubly assailed warrior of the deep. After death he floundered "topsy turryt" and the thrasher was observed to be luxuriating pti the choicest parts of the conquered dead. This is no mythical story of the sea, - but - an incident pf peculiar interest to those who realize the hostility existjiig between the thrasher and the whale and the characteristics of tho swordhsh. The latter knows no dungcr. He does not discern between a floating hull and a buoyant whale. His sword is bound to penetrate either at all hazards and risks to himself, and in this restK-ct he is similar to some misguid ed non-amphibious creatures. Victoria Standard. -r. s the Route Practicable? j rolwlthsianuing t'e emphatic warn ings of all experienced Arctic ?avigatpj-a, and the difficulties encountered on the Alert expeditious, the projected route from England through Hudson strait to Fort Churchill continues to bo discussed in England and Canada; and (mite recently the establishment pf a line' pf steamers pn, this routo was advocated by no less an authority than Commodore A. II. Markham, in a Jecture delivered, before the RoyaJ CleographicaJ Bpciety, As ha failed, however, to disprove any of the objections raised against the practicability of this route, which are chiefly founded on the always imminent danger of Fox channel ice, his remarks fail to con vince us. There '8 lip, doubt that powerful but small steamers' can accomplish the jour ney annually with comparative safety, but this is far from being sufficient to make the Hudson, Strait a practicab'io trade route, The premium pn this roue would have to be enormously' liigh pn occbuht pf the great number of ilan gers to navigation, and at all seasons the steamers would be liable to long delays. Sir Charles Tupper, who was present at this discussion, did not take as favorable a view as Markham, while Dr. Rae condemned the plan, as wholly untenable, ft; seems 'some what surprising to see it again revived after its impracticability appeared to have been E roved by the results of the Canadian udson Bay expeditions.

Many Perfect Blondes Anions; Theiu Con tradict a General llcllrf. We are not hidebound nor narrow minded in our admiration for female beauty. The fair and the dark, the blondes and brunettes, all have their special charms and admirable joints. liet.ides the beauty of feature and color there is also a spiritual and intellectual beauty which is quite as potent as the other. In the presence of a pure and lovely soul or a sparkling intellect and a delighting disposition, one niny be so completely enchanted as to be utterly blind to material things. I!ut whatever may be our uberalltv in matters of love ' and admiration for the beautiful sex. and we recognize their claims without regard . to the ethnological or geographical limits, ' wo are bound to reserve a stecial homage for our own southern women, and we are moved to this by the following tribute ' to Louisiana beauty. It was contributed to The Boyce (Rapides parish) Headlight by one who signs herself a "Cane River Gill." This is her verdict: "Many of our northern friends picture all Creoles with dark, swarthy skins, hair black is the raven's wing and eyes of ebon darkness. Now, this is altogether an t l rui'.i ous fancy. Why, some of the girls have lily white complexions, golden locks end eyes of heaven's own blue! In the iiitle village where I live there are lour sibli rs, all of the purest blonde tyjie, and d would be difficult to find any where in the wide world fairer, sweeter, love it r maidens than they. Whenever I read of 'the jdark skinned Creole1 a smile crosses my face, and I wish the readers' eyes could rest upon iny 'rosebud garden nf gitls.' "As I write these lines a' dainty Creole maiden enters my presence.

Her pearly cheeks are slightlv tinged by the sun's kisses, und her eyes of 'passionless, peaceful blue,' are gazing tenderly upon me. utterly unconscious of her own picturesque. loveliness. The mind of this gentle girl is as pure nud bright as her face. Altogether she is one of earth's fairest flowers.

She is usually reared in seclusion, and her days glide by peace fully and tranquilly. This tranquillity is seldom disturbed by a storm cloud. She is content to remain at home, where there is always a wide field of 'action, and 'do hey. duty' in' that state of life unto which it shall please God to call her.'

Denver Republican., Against iuo Afrieau $luve Trade. Cardinal tjJaTiogerie's crusade against the 'Afiica'n slave tiat'.o is already pro ducing good, frujt. The war against the Aral; slave stealers in Central Africa has I pegun in earnest. Twenty-six white men, with several hundred native allies, will soon take the held against this Arabian traffic in human flesh. The missionaries in Africa have taken siJyj with the leaders of thus humane uioy ment and are using voice and influue to. ralty heK '-patives iaiist the Arabs. There id no doubt that a well organized morvnieni will follow and that in a little whila slave tiadiiiein Africa will be an extremely dangerousVbusiness. But the campaign against the Arabs will by ua means be mere boy play. The Arabs are well stockaded and aruied and it will re quire spme hard fighting to get them cut. Detroit Free Press.
