HUMORS OF ADTER VISING.
A COMPARISON OFZNGLI8H ABD AMEBI-,
CAXSTTLES. -
It is in their intimate tone, their con
fidential attitude, that the English ad
vertisements differ most widely from
our own, says Agnes Repplier in the
December "New Lippencott." The
brief announcements, so familiar to us,
of "well-furnished rooms,' "pleasant
apartments at the sea side," "board for
two single gentlemen in a private fam
ily," hae a.cold, almost repellant as
pect, whtn compared to the genial hos
pitality with which strangers are in
vited to enter "the fair, free homes of
England." Miss Sophia Deale, of Dev
onshire, for example, offers to receive a
few "Sketching Boarders, or other Stu
dents requiring peace and quiet. View
of Pines and Harbour from windows."
One eees the "sketching boarders"
every Englishwoman sketches as a mat
ter of course washing in the sky-line
on their little pads, and grateful occa
sionally for tbe'sheHer-of' Mrs. Deala-'s-windows
in a land of perpetual ebor
ers. Still more personal is the follow
ing seductive advertisement which ap
peared once only in a well-known magazine:
"Home for Lady in charming old de
tached Cottage near River Thames.
Convenient to Station. Seventeen miles
from London. Would suit literary
Lady requiring quiet yet cheerful home.
For companionship and tuition to young
Wife of neglected, education, would ar
range easy terms."
There in the material for a novel in
these suggestive lines. The lonely, ig
norant young wife in her "detached"
cottage; the husband, older, of course,
with just enough of learning to feel his
sense of superiority; the stranger intra
duced to play complacently the part of
guide, philosopher, and friend. What
complications might not arise from such
a situation; though in point of comfort
and luxury it falls far short of a com
panion advertisement in the same paper.
"A gentleman residing alone in his
distinctly superior Country House (one
hoarfrom LondoD) Jaeixea .a permanent
guest of congenial and refined tastes
(Lady or Gentleman), who would have
the run of J his delightful secluded gar
dene, and of the entire premises equally
with himself, and who would appreci
ate the retirement of a quiet home.
Write rully,;etating age, habits and profession.''

If President Diaz wanted to be
crowned King of Mexico it is unlikely
that therojwould be serious opposition
to the furtherance of such an ambition.
Already hejis king de facto. "The Mak
er of Modern Mexico," as he is called, is
commonlylsuppo6ed to be nearly a full
blooded Indian, but the records show
that he ia in reality only fifteen thirty
seconds, or a trifle less than halt Indian.
President Hidalgo, known as the
"George Washington of Mexico," was a
full-blooded Indian, and President
Juarez, the "Abraham Lincoln of Mex
ico," had in him only a slight strain of
white blood. Old Tecumeeh, a fall
blooded Shawnee, was a brigadier gen
eral in the British army. Stand Watie,
the Cherokee, held a similar rank in the
confederate army, and Ely S. Parker,
a Seneca of nearly pure blood, was
General Grant's secretary of war, also
adjutant general, brigadier general, and
commissioner of Indian affairs. New
