The Taj Mahal at Agra.
A hundred miles from Delhi, at Agra,
rises one or the lairest monuments of
selfish love and of a cruel promise. The
beautiful and beloved wife of Shah
Jehan, the mightiest of earthly kings,
died in 1631, nor could the wealth of In
dia or the power of an absolute ruler save
the life of the being most dear to the
Grand Mogul, the fair Moon-tai-i-mahal.
As she died she uttered the request that
her husband would provide for her a
suitable monument. Thoughtless and
full of the common vanities of life she
scarcely reflected that the execution of
her wish must be paid for from the poor
earnings of the mothers and daughters
of Ilindostan; that tears would be shed
in thousands of cottages; that children
would be pinched and starved and the
aged harassed and disheartened to pro
vide for the cost of her marvelous tomb.
Too seldom, indeed, do any of us look to
tne result ox our actions, or are more
careful than the dying Queen to limit
our wishes by a philanthropic rule. In
his passionate grief Shah Jehan pressed
on the building of a mausoleum to his
consort with a barbaric indifference to
the sufferings of his people. Twenty
thousand laborers, it is said, were em
ployed upon the work for twenty years.
All India trroaned with toil and taxation.
The Taj Mahal, for so the toiab is called,
rose at last to a wonderful perfection.
It is the most beautiful and the richest
of all the testimonials oL a selfish aflec-
tion to its lost object, the finest archi
tectural device of sorrow, love and
death. A garden, as is usual in most
Oriental palaces and tombs, . sur
rounds the spot where sleeps the
Eastern Queen; the cypress waves, the
orange, th lemon, the banyan and the
palm spread their foliage around ; foun
tains play along every avenue, and glitter
in the air ; and-all the charms of Shiraz
and Cashmere are said to be imitated if
not surpassed in the gardens of Taj Ma
hal. . In the midst of the solemn beauty
of the natural decorations in front of the
great gate, and looking down upon the
sacred Jumna, springs up the mausoleum
itself. A platform of shining marble,
one minaret at each corner . of wonderful
loveliness, and .the central shrine
crowned with its glittering crescent 200
feet high; are wrought into that rare per
fection of form and decoration which to
only Hindoo craftsmen could attain. The
marble, the gold, the precious stones are
melted into fruits and flowers and woven
into designs that surpass the labors of the
encu or the dreams of poetrv. 1 et it
s within, beneath the central minaret,
in a cnam per richer ana grander man
royal .palace 4iver knew, that the
Oriental fancy finds its chief display.
The marble-latticed windows lend a
pensive light, the floors are sown with
jewels, and the cenotaph of the fair and
feeble mortal for whom all this wasteful
toil was given rises like an apparition of
beauty behind the lace-work of a marble
screen. Yet in all this rich effect of
Oriental fancy one misses perhaps the
stronger traits of Western genius. A
single figure on the mausoleum of Hali
carnassus, cloven by the powerful chisel
of Scopas, must surpass it all, and all the
wealth and power of Shah Jehan could
not awake the immortal fire that glows
in the friezes of Phidias. Eugene Law

Remarkable Case of Mistaken Identity.
Recently a case was tried in the
County Court which grew out of a re
markable similarity in the appearance
of two men. The plaintiff was Mr. An
thony Schwab. lie sued Lester It. Smith,
proprietor of the Phoenix Hotel, in Pitts
ford, for damages for assault and bat
tery. Hit. Schwab is a butcher, in part
nership with John Englehardt. The two
men are very mnch alike in general ap
pearance, style, dress and the way they
talk, both being Germans, talking broken
English. The difference between the
two men is easily distinguished when
they are seen together, but the difficulty
of telling one from the other is apparent
when seen separate. Mr. Englehardt, it
appears, borrowed a halter from Mr.
Smith, the defendant, and failed to re
turn it. Some time afterward Mr. Smith
met Mr. Schwab. The latter had Inc
same wagon that Mr. .Englehardt had.
and Mr. Smith, imagining that he was
Mr. Englehardt, asked him for the halter
that he had borrowed. Mr. Schwab of
course denied that he had ever Dorrowed
any halter, and Mr. Smith asserted posi
lvely that he had. They got to high
words, and then ensued the assault on
which was based th plaintiffs claims for
damages. Mr. Smith did not discover
his mistake until afterward. The trial
of the case in the County Court resulted
in a verdict of seventy-five dollars dam
ages for the plaintiff. Rockeeter Evening

Southern Folly, r
The Cincinnati Commercial 8nd Louis
ville Courier-Journal, which have been
squabbling focsome time past about lot
teries and things that were of no special
interest outside the respective newspa
per offices, have now locked horns upon
a question which has a general interest
The 6ubiect-matter in dispute is substan
tially as follows: The Commercial took
the ground in the course of the contro
versynhat the Southern people were con
ouere'd; that there were people in the
South who Were not rebels ; that the
rebel faction has been dealt with most
generously by the National Government;
and that as the conquerors the uovern
ment had thj right to prescribe certain
conditions, among them the constitution
al amendments, which would reduce the
chances of future rebellions. The Cou-rier-Jovrnal
in reply incloses about a
dozen lines of answer in a column of
irrelevant personality, and this answer
includes two sta'ements: first, "the
South was a unit during the war, and
the rebels did and the ex-rebels do own
it;" and, second, .! the South had a rec
ognized constitutional right of property
in man." This right might have been
annulled with respect to the fighting
rebels, but its abrogation as to old men,
infants and women, as to minors and non
combatants, "was such an act of confis
cation as the world has not known with
in two centuries."
This is the substance of the quarrel as
it now stands. The Chicago T ribune has
no disposition, to interfere with others'
quarrels, but as tbe matter at issue is of
general interest the Tribune, as a specta
tor, can make what comments it sees fit.
The Commercial has the Courier-Journal
in chancery. The statement of the latter
that the South was a unit in the rebell-
ion is simply absurd and only shows that
its editor has not yet recovered from the
insanity which urged him into the , re
bellion and drove him to take up arms in
defenso of human slavery, in which he
had no financial interest and in which he
only acted as an agent or tool of the
slaveholders. Has he forgotten how
many Union men there were in Ken
tucky, Missouri, West Virginia and Mary
land? Does he not know of the suffer-
ogs of Union men and women in Eastern
Tennessee, in certain districts of North
Carolina and Texas, and in the mountain
regions of Georgia and Alabama! Does
he not know that fully one-third, perhaps
one-half, of the fighting rebels were not
in favor of the disunion cause for which
they were fighting; that they were driven
into rebellion by slave-owners and dema
gogues who did not go themselves, and
that it was less ruinous for them to go
into the army than it was to 6tay out of
it? If he does not then he has net stud
ied the facts of the war of the rebellion
sufficiently to qualify him to discuss
with the Commercial or any other paper
upon tne real character ol that war upon
the Southern Bide.
The second statement of the Courier-
Journal that " this right might have been
annulled with respect to the righting
rebels, but its abrogation as to infants
and women, as to minors and non-combatants,
was such an act of confiscation
as the world has not known within two
centuries," is quite as absurd as its first,
and shows that this editor knows as lit
tle about the condition of the fighting
material of the Southern army as he
does about the Union sentiment among
the Southern white people. The fight
ing rebels were not slaveholders, except
a small minority. The vast mass of the
Southern army was composed of poor
whites and young men forced into it for
social reasons, who owned no slaves and
had no interest in them. The Southern
rebellion was fought by those who had
been coerced into the ranks, by those
whose feelings had been inflamed by the
slaveholders and demagogues. The
planters themselves, as a rule, stayed at
home, but forced to the front the men
who had no slaves to fight for and no
griefs against the" Union. Those who
ost their time, their labor and their
ives, and whose families suffered, were
the tools of the stay-at-home secession
slaveholders. Had the emancipation of
slaves "been confined to those who
were fighting in the rebel ranks nt
slaves to speak of would have been
emancipated, as very few of: them ever
owned a slave. If there is any Northern
animus against the South it is . not
against those poor fellows who fought in
the field, but against those who stayed at
home and took no risks, but forced them
to the battle and the slaughter. The
Courier-Journal has no right to complain
in the premises. These stay-at-homes
have been most generously treated. Not
one of them has been punished as he de
served to be. Not one of them has sui
fered confiscation of property except of
the human kind, which, as the Commer
cial very truthfully says, has been a
blessing to the South, as " a free man,
black or white, is worth more to any
country than a slave." The lenity of the
North toward the South has been a mar
vel to all other civilized .nations, which
have never hesitated to punish rebellion,
always with confiscation, and often with
death. Instead of that no slaveholder
has been deprived of life, liberty or
suffrage for his high crime of treason and
rebellion. On the contrary, they have
been permitted to resume the political
control of thirteen of the fifteen ex-slave
States. In the face of such facts the
complaint of ill-treatment comes with a
very bad grace even from the Courier
Journal. Chicago Tribune.
Significance of the Finger.
Each finger, and the mount at the
base of it, is named after a planet. In
ihe normal hand the second finger is the
longest, and this third the next in length,
while the first is nearly as long as the
third and much,longer than the fourth
or little finger'Jupiter is the first finger;
It 11 Ut) 1' Ug U11U. IJUI llj-suniJcu,
and the
mount af the base be well developed, it
indicates a noble and lofty character and
a religious-minded person. If dispropor
tionately long, it will mean different
thiDgs according to the type of the hand
in which it may" be found; or according
to the type of that particular finger. In
the first type an over-long first finger
would denote an inclination to the fan
tastic or exaggerated in religious matters ;
or it might, perhaps, mean religious
madness; or, if other signs in the hand
favored this view, it could be taken to
denote pride. Pride is a form of worship
the culture of self. In the second type
of hand the excessive 'development of
Jupiter might mean ambition, o?, if it
were in a hand that is eminently unselfish,
it might stand for a something that i9
puritanical in manners or morals a type
of too great a severity. In the third
type a very long first finger would
probably signify vanity. - The second
finger is Saturn. If too prominent it
announces melancholy, or misanthropy,
or downright cruelty, according to tbo
type of hand, but if the finger be within
due proportion this sadness may take
the form of pity for others, or it may
mean a becoming gravity. The third
finger is Apollo and belongs to the arts
In a "pointed" hand Apollo wiil give

- Something Like a Cat.
"Talking about cats," said Uncle Tim,
a regular Yankee, "puts me in mind of
a cat I once owned. Let me tell you
about her. She was a Maltee, and what
that cat didn't know wasn't worth know-
in'. Here's one thing she did: In the
spring of '46 I moved into the little old
house on the Croofced River. We put
our provisions down in the cellar, and
the first night we made our beds on the
floor. But we didn't sleep. ,No sooner
had it come dark than we heard a tearin'
and a squeakin' in the cellar that was
awful. I lit the candle and went down.
Jerusalem! Talk about rats! I never
saw such a sight in my born days. Every
inch of the cellar bottom was covered
with them. They ran up to me and all
over me. I jumped back into the room
and called the cat. She came down and
looked. I guess she sat there about ten
minutes looking at them rats, and I was
waitin' to see what she would do. By
and by she 6hook her head, and turned
and went up-stairs. She didn't care to
tackle 'em. That night, I tell you, there
wasn't much sleep. In the mornin' I
could not find her. She'd .gone. 1 guess
the rats had frightened her, and, to tell
the plain truth, I didn't wonder much.
Night came again, and the old cat
hadn't come. Sajs Betsy Ann (that's
my wife) to me, 'Tim, leave this
place: the rats'll eat us up.' Says I,
Just let the old cat be.' I didn't be
lieve she'd left us for good and all. Just
as Betsy Ann was puttin' the children to
bed we heerd a scratchin' and wauhn at
the outside door. I went ano opened it
and there stood old Maltee on the door
step, and behind her a whole army of
cats, all paraded as regular as any sol
diers. I let our old cat in, and the others
followed her. She went right to the cellar-door
and scratched there. I began to
understand. Old -Maltee had been out
for help. I opened tbe way to the cellar ;
she marched down, and the other cats
tramped after her in regular order and
as they went past I counted fifty-six of
'em! Oh, my! if there wasn't a row angr
a rumpus in that 'ere cellar that night,
then I'm mistaken ! The next morning
the old cat came up and caught hold of
my trowsers leg and pulled me toward
the door. I went down to see the sight
Talk about your Bunker Hill and Boston
massacres! Mercy! I never saw such a
sight before nor since. Betsy Ann and
me, with my boy Sammy,' were all day
as hard at work as we could be clearing
the dead rata out of tbaJ 'ere c.ellar. Its
a fact every word of it." ' -

felt was unedged. A long, white plume
fell on one side of the crown over the
brim and the interior was filled in by a
wreath of flowers. The whole was worn
at the back of the head. All elderly
ladies have their bonnets covered with a
