yaga!)6nd:sh life, relying upon the vir
tue of their caste to secure them food
ami lodging, at whatever house they
mav visit. One of these oleaginous
peripatetic loafers came one day to the
door of a grain-seller, reputed to be
wealthy. With the impefiousness of a
high-caste Hindoo, the Brahmin de
manded some refreshment. The grain
seller b&d imbibed English ideas tosuch
an extent that his mind was made up
not to be blackmailed by any able
bodied but lazy Brahmin.
Othr villagers brought food to the
"Brahmin but lie refused to accept their
offerings, being determined to break
the spirit of the grain-seller. One day
passed, and neither had yielded.
On the second day the Brahmin, now
very liungry, poured lortn nis curses
upon the grain-seller's head, muttering
spells, and bringing forth all manner
of objurgations. The grain-seller re
mained obdnrate. Then the Brahmin
lacerated his arms, for he thought that
when the man saw the blood of a Brah
min dripping at his ioor, he would sub
mit through fright. The horror-strick
en neighbors implored him to yield and
avert the dire consequences that might
come upon the village. The grain
seller was as deaf to their entreaties as
to the clamor of the lazy beggar.
On the -third day, as if to scare the
man by one horrible deed, the Brahmin
went to the edire of the deen well in
the courtyard, and amid the cries of
the assembled villagers, jumped down
into the gloomy depths. The women
screamed and beat their breasts, the
men tore their hair and garments.
The grain-seller rushed to the well,
lent over the brink, and begged the
Brahmin, whose form he could see
floating in the-Avatar, not io drown him
self. The Brahmin must have thought
that at last he had conquered, for his
hands grasped the strong silken girdle
whicluthe grain-seller let down, and
suffered himself to be slowly drawn up.
When the spluttering Brahmin reached
the top of the well, his wrists were
grasped by the grain-seller, and tied
together with the- girdle which had
served as a draw-rope.
Amid the lamentations of tne shriek
ing crowd, the grain-seller hauled the
half drowned Brahmin to the nearest
police station, and charged him with
attempting to commit suicide. The
Brahmin was sent to prison, artd from
that day the pretensions of the mem
bers of the sacred caste were not heeded

It is said that there is a scheme on

The general outline of the plaudit is

wealthy Englishmen, owning conces

The large warehouse of an English
company in Ensenado was to be tilled
wit lv arms, ammunition, ami provisions
for the use of the revolutionists. The
officers of the English corporation
claim that tlie policy of the Mexican
officials in Lower California has been
ruinous to the land interests of the
company, which luis been obliged to
expend thousands of dollars in protect
ing its interest, and the -salvation of

COUBTSHIP IN GREECE.
Queer Marriage Customs Among
the Modern Hellenes.
Courting by Promjr Most of the Private
Arrangements Mle by Old Women
Stolen Kisses and Hugs Pletur
csquc Biles and Feast ,
When a young Greek determines to
take a wifo to himself ho docs not go a
courting, but, according to a London
Standard correspondent, ho takes his
oldest female relatives into his confi
dence, and they at once go hunting for a
suitable mate for him. Marriageable
maidens are visited and silently ap
praised. They receive old dames cour
teously, answer all their questions and
never venturo to ask tho nature of their
errand." The visitors never mention tho
young man's name, and never drop a
hint that they are wtfc hunting. From
their demeanor ono would supposo that
they were simply paying a friendly visit.
As soon as the visitors have mado a
choice tho voocr dispatches them again
to tho maiden's home with instructions
to ask her hand in marriage. They go
to her parents house and, standing on
the threshold, say: ."Wo oomo to you
your daughter in marriage seeking. To
us lio not disappointing." The Syrian
Greeks chant this in Arabic, thus:
Ioincoum IChaatbcen
Laii-blnttouin Tahlbccn
Lab. tcrronddoons klaibcea.
If the maiden's parents do not object
to the proposed match they invito tho
visitors to enter tho house and partako
of their hospitality. Tho evening is
spent in casting and making arrange
ments for the wedding. the girl s par
ents announce the amount of her dowry
and the young man's relatives givo an
inventory of his worldly possessions.
The wooer himself visits the girl on tho
following day and is formally betrothed
to her, the ceremony being performed
by a priest, who simply hands to tho
girl a small present from her wooer.
Thenceforward, until tho wedding takes
place, he may visit her every day, but
ho will have no chance to bo alono
with her. When ho enters tho houso
her mother has her eyo on him, and
she lS supposed to keep her eyo on him
until he leaves. That she clozes occa
sionally, however, is proved by tho
fact that there arc few amorous Greeks
who doMiot manago to get a tasto of
their sweethearts' lips long before they
aro married to them. A few stolen
kisses, however, are all tho luxuries
they can hope to obtain during tho
ante-nuptial period, for tho girls aro
guarded most carefully, not because
the parents distrust tho suitors, but be
cause they consider it their duty to pro
tect their daughters' honor as long as
they aro under their roofs.
Their guardianship does not last
long after a suitor declares himself. To
get married is his object, and ho easily
persuades his betrothed to have the
ceremony performed during the next re
ligious festival. When tho wedding day
at last arrives ho gathers his friends in
his own house at noon and spreads a
marriage "feast beforo them. His be
trothed gathers her friends likewise and
entertains them in her parents' home.
So in tho two homes tho day is spent in
feasting and merrymaking. Friends
flock from all directions, and thoso who
enter tho man's houso gay in greeting:
"May good luck like this soon befall all
bachelors," while thoso who enter tho
girl's houso say: "May happiness like
this soon be tho lot of all young maid
ens." Not till midnight, however, docs tho
ceremony itself begin. T.hcn all tho
young man's friends light their torches
and go with him to the houso of his be
trothed. Tho maiden and her friends
await them, ani without delay all form
a long procession and inarch back to tho
young man's house. Professional sing
ers lead tho way, filling the air with
music, and blazing torhej cast their
ruddy light on tho glad faces of tho
revelers and tho beautiful faces and
attire of the stately Greek maidens.
When they reach the houso they find
a priest ready to perform tho marriage
ceremony. To tho younfj couple stand
ing beforo him ho reads tho ritual of
the Greek church, and then, after plac
ing his hands on their heads first simply
and afterwards crosswise, ho joins their
hands and pronounces them man and
wife.
The guests now offer congratulations
and gifts, and the bridegroom in return
offers them beakers of wino and
other lavish hospitality. So during tho
night and long after dawn tho feast is
continued, and not until tho sun is high
in heaven has tho bridegroom a chance
to bo alone with tiio bride, By that
timo tho last guest has departed, and
the only persons in tho house aro tho
married couple, the bride's mother and
tho bridegroom's parents. Tho two
mothers conduct the married couple to
their apartment, close tho door on them,
return to an adjoining room, and lying
on couches remain. there until the bride
and groom conic out to break their fast.
If they arc satisfied that all is well
the parents go off to sleep and the bride
groom Alls his pocket with cakes and
sweetmeats and goes for a promenade.
At every step he meets a friend, who
congratulates him wannlv. and trots in
return a handful of sweetmeats.
A week lacr there is a regular '"houso
warming,'"to which all of the friends of
the bride and hridegrooom are invited.
This is succeeded by feasts and soirees
in the houses of the wedding guests. At
these entertainments, which last for sev
eral days, the newly-married couple aro
tho principal attraction. Not until
these enjoyable days aiC over is a Greek
honeymoon considered at an end.

NOBLE SIX HUNDRED.
Personal Reminisoenooe of Colonel
John Shakespeare.
A Survivor Gives Some New Points About
the Famous Charge of the Light Bri
gadeHow ISrave Men Walked Into
the Jaws of Death
Colonel John Shakespeare, a retired
officer of the British army, writes as fol
lows to the London Standard:
The charge of "The Light Brigade,"
called "The Six Hundred." took place
October 23, 185, and is still a household
memory with us, though many years
havo slipped by, and I have been asked
by many to placo on record some occur
rences other than mere galloping, cut
ting, thrusting and strong language,
all of which aro very similar on liko oc
casions, and arc often told in prose and
verse. Short and to tho point is best
suited to what is required of me. So to
begin my story:
Maude's horse artillery, with mo sec
ond in command, opened firo at day
light and kept in action until its ammu
nition was exhausted, when it retired a
few yards down hill and remained there
for awhile, screened from tho Russian
shot and shell, with tho hope of giving
confidence to come wavering Turks.
Maude was seriously wounded by a shell
bursting in his horse, and there wero also
several casualties among offlcers.5nen,
horses and gun-wheels. Some of our
field batteries soon arrived and contin
ued tho cannonade.
In the course of an hour or so our two
brigades of cavalry and horso artillery
formed columns near the heights of the
plateau of Sebastopol, when suddenly a
lino of cavalry, with supports in col
umn, probably 5,000. poured down tho
grass slopes toward Balaklava, and
were gloriously defeated by our heavy
brigado of cavalry under General Scar
lett. In the pause that followed I deemed
it desirable to learn what tho Russians
wero doing, and as tho horso I had rid
den was wounded by a splinter of a
shell, I mounted a baggago pony and
rode up tho grass slopo to near tho crest
of tho now-famed valley, whero I teth
ered him to a tent peg, and crept on
through tho long grass until my tel
escope cautioned: Beware! Tho brush
wood on the hills opposite was full of
guns, and down tho valley wero troops
by thousands. Captain Charteris, oao
of Lord Lucan's aides-de-camp, now rodo
by, but as he did not soo mo I hailed
him with tho information, when ho re
plied: "Tho Light Brigade is ordered to
attack," and while wo were speaking I
hove in sight, advancing and deploy
ing at the trot and cantor
not timo for warning, so
There was
I ran to my
pony, and getting back to the guns as
fast as ho could carry me, brought them
up at full speed and placed them over
tho ridge, where best able to aid tho re
mains of tho Six Hundred in their inev
itable retreat.
At this timo Lord Cardigan reinod up
and told mo what had happened, at the
samo timo pointing to a long rent in his
cherry overalls mado by a Cassack Lan
cer who had otherwise missed his aim.
Others rodo or ran up to tho guns.
Among tho last was Captain Godfrey
Morgan, Seventeenth Lancers, now Lord
Tredegar, whose horso had been killed
and his helmet lost. However, ho came
to me, sword in hand, and, speaking as
cool as ho would on parade, said: "Is
not this an awful business, Shakespeare!
What shall I do?" My reply was:
"Quick; jump on a gun limber, and go
to tho rear with us, or to tho front if wc
go into action, when you may help fight
a gun.'
Wc must not forget tho volley from
tho Ninety-third Highlanders, which
emptied many Russian.' saddles near tho
entranco to tho villago of Balaklava:
nor tho attack on the Russian artillery
in tho brushwood by tho French oavalry
on white horses. I can s.o them now.
so conspicuous wero they on tho hill. So
keen is memory formed on tho battle
field that even now I fancy I see Nolan
and his horso lying d ai, liko many
others whose names I did not know.
Of my friend Charteris I havo a re
markable foreshadowing of fato to re
late. On the previousevening ho and I,
whilo taking a quiet ride, saw signs of
a fight on tho marrow, when ho spoko
very gloomily of it being his last. My
saying: "Well, wo havo been under firo
together pretty often, and yet hero wo
aro again." did not cheer him. ''No, it
would bo his last." A round shot killed
him directly wo parted on tho rid.?o be
foro named. As tho spot was debatable
gound my gunners buried him then and
there.
HUMOR OF THE SCOTS,
It Does Not Seem to lie of a Very Lively
Character.
In order to disprovo tho frequent as
sertion that tho Scotch aro not humor
ous, says tho Now York Sun, tho editor
of a Scottish paper recently dcelarod his
columns open, and invited all tho jokes
of tho peoplo which his constituents
would send to him. These aro fair sam
ples of what wero handed in:
"Two loys having met a man in whito
'spats,' ono of them said ho woro 'whito
ponter's breeks below his ither ancs.' "
"This is but the forefront of tho bat
tle 'tis rare, what this boy saidr'in a
waggery.""
"A woman, having foresworn whisky
in a glass, drank it out of a cup."
A man took the hat worn by a scare
crow.
"Whisky having been ordered for an
outward application, the patient drank
it."
"A boy, being asked if he had 'passed
the doctor in a medical examination
said: 'Yes, I passed him up at Coch
rane's corner.' "
"A woman in a shop, wishing to ask
for a dolman, asked for a donkey."
"A horso falling down deadr"a man
asked: "Did it ever do that before?' "
"Heaven was defined as a place where
'whisky is plontif ul and policemen are
scarce.' "
"Havo you seen Tom sinco he left?'
4No; but I'm gaun tao write tae him tao
speir his address?" "
Intellectually tho Scotch aro one of
the very greatest peoplo in the world,
but they don't seem to bo very funny.
