There Is a dreary, desolate region on Bayou L . not very fur from New Orleans, which U shunned and dreaded by all men. It Is not that the gray Spanish mow, whose lugubrious festoons cover the tree and hang their funereal banners to the earth, seem to whisper to the slug gish air: "Malaria! malaria!'' It is not because of the festering la goons, with their green scum, broken now and then by the flat, waving head of a water moccasin, nor yet for the ugly swamp stretching back, with ita fantastic lines, like monstrous serpents twisting around the trees, nnd a green, ghastly light filtering through tho densely-woven branches overhead and playing on the brown water of tho swamp pools, like a witch's dance of light and shadow. No; nature had done her part to make that portion of Bayou L hideous, but a heavier curso rest upon It. It is La tare de$ Lepreux (Leper's Land). Many years ago the dreaded disease appeared on one of the French colon ists, shortly after Louisiana was settled, lie fled from his family and buried him self In that wild region. His family joined him there, either because somo other member was stricken or from devotion, and one by one suc cumbed to the fatal phiguo. Mean time other lepers had joined them, for at one time there was a great many cases among the foreigners, and Bayou L- became a common refuge for thoso pariahs. They cultivated tho ground, and took into their wretched lives such enjoyments as lay in their power. They were not forgotten by tho charitable. Catholic priests visited them at Intervals, carrying tho dona tions of tho pious, and though mystery enveloped tho country of these hapless beings, they were assisted whenever they needed assistance. Ono morning I was sitting on a bench in Jackson Square, when 1 saw coining out of tho cathedral tho good priest. Father Raymond, holding a littlo girl by the hand. They crossed tho street, en tered tho Square, nnd approached the bron zo equestrian tiguro of tho great General near which I was sitting. The littlo girl, a beautiful child she was, about ten years old, was looking about with a grave, pro-occupied air, which seemed strango in ono so young. Father Raymond had been my friend from childhood, and wo were always happy to meet, iu spite of tho difference in our faiths. What a lovely child that is, Father!" I (wid, when the first greeting was over. "Who IssheP" 'Mario St. Cyr," ho answered. "Go, then, ma petite, and look at tho flowers and trees. Thou wilt find mo hero when thou art tired, and we will go homo." Tho child moved slowly off, not with a buoyant, light step, but heavily, and with evident reluctance. 'She is not sick, Is she?" I asked. "She looks so blooming! I never saw a lovelier croature, with those sunny auburn curls, and those soft gray eyes, with their long black lashes. She can not bo sick P" Tho priest shook his head gravely. "She is not sick now, but there is lit tle of the child in that ten-year-old maiden. You will understand mo when I tell you she oomes from 'Lejwr's Land.' Her father was attacked by lep rosy fjve years ago, and his wife and child followed him. Madame St. Cyr has reason to believe that she has con tracted the disease, and, having no rela tives in this country, she has confided tho child to mo. She wishes to give her the only chance toeseape perfect Isola tion from the lepers. She said to mo: ' 'It breaks my heart to part with my darling, my onlv child; but we must give her a chance. Father, sho must never see us again, even in our death hour. I may have to live long, long years without her, for leprosy kills by slow Inches but I bid farewell to her forever.' I think tho death agony will be more easily borne by tho poor mother than the separation from her child. She tried hard to be brave, but it was a pitiful courage. The father poor wretch! whose days are numbered, broke down utterly, "lie was afraid to touch his child or caress her, for hands and face are alike leprous, but ho sank on his knees and cried aloud amidst sob 0 ma petite, never to see thy sweet face again! never to hear thy voice! God help me to bear it!' " "And poor Marie?" I asked. "How did the child bear it?" "She clung to her mother, screaming, and refused to come. She can not un derstand why she is banished.. She . knows, no one better, what a fearful disease leprosy Is, and that it will soon kill her' father, but she wants to be at home. It seem to her worse than death to be separated from her parents. The St. Cyrs are peoplo of education and refinement, so their situation is the more terrible on that account. They have ample means, too, to provide for Marie, and rive her every adv antage of education. " "But do you think she will escape the disease?" Ho shrugged his shoulder "Who knows? At least her only chance was this separation. It Is not a hereditary taint In tho family." "lam tired. Father," said a mild voice; and looking back, we saw Marie. I held out mr hand, and mode her sit beside me. Her exquisite beauty seemed almost tragio in the light of the sail storv I had just hoard. "Are not the flowors beautiful, Ma rie?" I said. "And the birds and the butterflies?" "Yes, madame," she answered, indif ferently; "but they are not as pretty as the big yellow sunflowers In mamma's garden at home, and the red trumpet blossoms in the swamp. And they have no Spanish beard here" (TilandM wmoide). "Ah! it was so pretty to pull It from the trees anil make soft beds to play on. Jacques and Elena and me, we used to build real houses with it, and dance 'la ronde' in them." "And they dance in Leper's Land?' I whispered to the priest He nodded si lently. The child, who was not shy, went on talkjng gravely, and, as it seemed, more to herself than to us. '.'But Elena can dance no more, vou know, mon Pere. Her feet are swollen so big," holding out her hands. "Ah, I want to see her, and mamma and papa. You know, Pere Raymond, mamma said may be you would have to take me back." Tho priest bent his head sadly; "In one case, yes petite, but it will be because the object of the separation has failed. You must be good and patient, as your mamma told you. Bid madame good-bye. Mario, and let us go." Aftpr that meeting, I made it a point to see the child as often as I could. She went as a day-scholjir to a convent not far from my boarding-house, ami, with Father Raymond's permission, often stopped to see me. The child interested me, not only for her beaut r, but a lov ing, sweet disposition. In looking at her, I always seemed to see, like a vat, formless shadow hovering over her head, the terrible specter of leprosy, readv to clutch tho sunny hair and lovely face. Instead of becoming more reconciled to tho separation from her home, sho began to pine with homesickness. Once a week her mother wrote to her cheer ful, even gay letters, which she brought mo to read. The tears sometimes blind ed me as I read. I could feel tho men tal torture through tho brnve effort to speak cheerfully. It was like a hymn of rejoicing sung by martyrs while the flames were consuming them. "But mamma will not say when I am to come back?" Marie said to mo. "No, I have read you every word; she says nothing about it." "But I can not stay away!" she cried, burying her face in her hands, and bursting into a passion of tears. "I dream, dream all night of mamma, and when I wako up, oh, I cry so much, it makes mo sick!" "But don't you want to obey mam ma?" I asked. "Sho knows if you stay at homo you will be very ill and die. and sho wants you to bo well and strong." Tho child's eyes filled with passionate longing bs sho cried: "Oil, to bo sick with mamma! why, madame, that would be Heaven! Look you. sho takes me in her arms, ami site rocks mo like a baby, and site tells mo stories, and sho kisses me all the timo. Ah, mon Dion, but that is all I want in tho world! I shall die if I do not go back." I soothed her convulsive sobs as well as I could, but again and again the same scene was enacted. "She will die of home-sickness," I said to Pere Ravmond tho next time we met. "Leper's Land is to her a parddise, and you will never weaken cither her memory or her attachments." Tho good priest raised his reverent eyes to the skies. "When our own wis dom fails, why, wo will have to leave the matter iu wiser hands. Some way will bo opened for tho innocent little ono. We will do our duty, and safely leave her in her Father's hands." "Are you not afraid to go among thoso peoplo?" I asked. "Afraid!" looking at me with sur prise. "It is not for a priest to hold back where duty takes him. All places are good to us where we can do the Mas ter's will. My allotted duties call me to Leer's Land, and if the deaths increase as they have dono within tho past year, I will take up my abode there. It will not do for man's outcasts to die without the ministrations of God's ministers, and that has happened more than once." "And Madame St. Cyr, is she much worse?" "No; the disease progresses slowly with her, as it does with most Years elapse while it is moving by inches. Her husband is near the end, but tho domi nant idea with both is to give Marie her one chance of escape. Such scenes as I go through there! Between the mother's agonized cry for her darling, whom yet she will not see, and tho child's yearning for her parents, my heart is wrung all tho time." The next day I left New Orleans and did not return for a month. A few hours after I arrived. Father Raymond called, and my first glance at him told mo something had happened. "How is Marie?" I a.-ked instantly, feeling as sured that the gloom on the good priest's usually cheerful face hail something to do with his little charge. "I take her to her parents to-morrow. "Tin throat 'A leper, yos," he answered, sadly. "A few days after you left she was taken ill, but only a day "or two ago the fatal sign appeared on her arm." There was a long silence, I could not speak for my tears, and Father Ray. moiul, with bent head and mournful eyes, seemed pr.iving to himself. "How does she boar it?" I aked at last "She is perfectly happr. That seems the saddest tiling. But I can not talk of it yet She wUhos to see you this even ing. There is not the slightest danger yet, for the disease is just becpnniug." "Of course I will come," I said. When I entered Marie's r in:, v rr to meet me. She was pcsiuvi-lv rvL ant her beautiful eyes shining, her checks rostngisl. looking like an in carnation of health and happiness. "I am so glad you have come back!' she cried. "I thought I would go home without seeing you. I won't kiss you. "Then she U" the word stuck in my for thty say I have leprosy, and th at Is the reason I am going back to mamma .n.l nana Oh I Km an trim I'" and the clapped her hands and laughed as I had never uearii ner laugn neiore, iiuoo x mortal hofnra reliiipn nt )yinr attacked by a loathsome and fatal disease? Could . . I J L ... L . ,n me cnim unciersianu. wiiiu was w;i"i her? As if in answer to my thought, the said: "I suppose the leprosy will kill me, as it does the others, and make me ug ly and dreadful like poor papa. But then, tou see. I shall be with them. I don't mind anything when I think of that O madame, i am so happy i I left her srailinzand full of joy at the thought of home. A few weeks after ward Father Raymond told me of, the v W I mi . X return to wper a Lna. ine pour mother fell back unconscious when she saw her child. When she recovered, Marie's arms were around her, Marie s kisses on her lips. "Thou, too, my aariing: ' sne crieu; "thou, too! Ob, couldat thou not be spared the curse?" "1 am glad, mamma: Mane crieu. "I am elad. for it rives me back to thee." "I left them thus,'; said Father Ray mond. "In time I suppose the mother's anguish will soften, and she will see that it is best for the little -one to die young. I shall be with them, for what I anticipated has come to pass. I am needed at Bayou L , and the rest of my Hie win De spent; among me poor outcasts. This is my last visit to yo." I parted with the good priest.wjth a heavy heart Three years ngonewa brought to the Charity Hospital stricken with leprosy, and filied in a short time. I saw a statement of the case published in the records of the hospital, my first intimation of the death of the good man. Of Marie I have heard nothing. Those who go into that mysterious Land are isolated from tho rest of tho world, and their terrible life-drama is wrought out without spectators. God knows how It went with the beautiful child, but I hope death soon came to her. .V. B. Williams, in XouUu Com panion. ITALIAN PAPERS. The Undeveloped State of the Dally Freu of Italy. There are about two hundred daily papers in Italy. Nothing analogous to the county or village newspaper in America exists in the Italian peninsula. As for the large cities and those of the second and third class, they are amply supplied, as will appear from the fol lowing statement: There are in Milan eight in Rome twenty-three, in Venice six, in Genoa six, in Naples seven, in Turin five, in Florence five and in Palermo three. Those in Milan are in the most reasonable proportion, for there are only eight, and the population is not far from 300,000, while the people of Lombardy are the most energetio and intelligent in Italy. Tho twenty-throe at Rome are tho anomaly. Romo has a popuia tion of 1G0.0OO, or a littlo moro than half that of San Francisco, yet it has three or four times the numlier of daily newspapers. Of these tiio Romano Popolo, a sort of Government organ, has a circulation of 86,0u0. It is in telligently edited and influential and reasonable, like most of the journals of the country, which, when they entertain ultrarepublican views Uke tho Seryfy, at Milan, content themselves with mild ex pressions of opinion, that the public harmony may not bo disturbed. Tho Sccolo, which is said to have a circula tion of 140,000, is seen everywhere in Italy and occasionally is sold at news stands in France and Spain. It has a reputation for ability and enterprise not onlv anion? its partisans but its enemies. and the manner in which it is con ducted is more like that of a first-class American than any other journal in Italy. The general distribution of news papers indicates tho prevailing degree of intelligence in tho localities where they are published, Rome being a nota ble exception. Naples, though having zuo.uuu more inhabitants than Milan. has less daily newspapers, while Paler mo, a great and important city, has only three. Genoa is about the size of Kome, yet has but six dailies and an is- norant reading constituency. The greatest proportion of illiteracy is, of courso, found at Naples and down through Calabria into Sicilv, and here there isnotonly affreatly diminished cir culation of newspapers, but of all kinds of literature.

Jamison, the Philadelphia bank er, recently said: "Did I ever tell you about my first financial transaction ol Importance? No? Well, it took place in my native town in Indiana County.

While it is not generally supposed hat tho staid statesmen at tjio capital ire over-ninsical in their tastes, yet here are somu who love to lay aside .he care of ollhial work and batho heir sjuIs in song. Among tho me la sers of Congress Senator Hawl-y, of Connecticut, is the best known singer. He has a tine baritoni voice, which ho ases to excellent advantage. Tho Sen ttor's repertoire is extensive, but his 'avorites aro some quaint old drinking Pongs, and in their rendition he is wch- aigh inimitable. Senator U.a kburn, of Kentucky, is a basso, and a good singer he is, too. His favorite is "Old Kentucky Home." Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, is another iingcrof Congressional renown. His voice is a baritone, and he sings a num ber of selections very nicely. Not a great while ago he sang his favorite, "One Hundred Years Ago," in his com mittee rqoin to a company of friends, and they do sav it was a magnificent performance. Mr. Brown, of Pennsyl vania, has the best tenor in Congress, and it has been thoroughly cultivated. It is a high, pure and sweet voice. Mr. Brown is fond of tho highest order of music, although hes ngs some plaintive baliads in a way that "wjuld do credit to a professional. Mr. llanb.ick, of Kansas, is another tenor. H.s voice is not as finely cultivated as Mr. Brown's, but it is powerful and sonorous. He would ni.ikea good chorus singer in tit': comic optra were it not for his bald head. Mr. ll.inbick likes the serio comic songs of the day. He belongs to the Elks and is a regular attendant upon their meetings. He can give a Sood reeitat'on as well as sing a song. Sometimes his selections' are of the patriotic order, and sometimes tiey partake of the comic, but h seldom sings any thing sentimental. There are a number of other singers in Congress enough, in faet, tJ turnish choruses for s -veral open companies but the f gentlemen mentioned are thoe who isve achievid reputations on a' count of their own musieal gifts and attain menu. ttaJtinjtou Letter.

The farmer who worries the least, and does more work than his neighbor with less trouble apparently, is the one who is never behind with his work. Kw-ntarv Russell savs that a farmer who cannot make fiod bring him" more than N interest year invested in his own business must be a poor manager. There is lots of difference in hired men ; the good ones are not paid enough, and the poor ones are paid too much, says a writer in the New York Tribune. Stock needs salt, and it is a matter that should be looked after, Many cases of colic in horses and hoven in cat tle are caused by a deficiency of a sup ply of salt. A first-c-lass man who is capable of takinc charge of other hands, commands on a farm in Scotland from $150 to tOO a year, with house rent and fuel fur nished. Rut he keeps himself. The Berlin farmers have organized a grange, No. 134, with forty charter mem bers. Samuel Wheeler is master. This is the eighth grange organized in Massa chusetts since the 1st of January. The chick that seems nearly naked and which feathers slowly will be easier to raise, if kept warm, than one that be gins to feather rapidly from the start. It is the feathering period that is the criti cal time with young chicks. Milk does vary. At a Maine dairy meeting, Washington Hall, of Brewer, said bis herd of cows would make a ponnd of butter from sixteen pounds of milk. Charles Foster, of Stetson, said it took twenty-two pounds. Here is a difference of 33 and more per cent, in the value of milk. Ed. Cbeever, of the New England Farmer, says that the character of the .tersey cow has been sadly injured in public estimation by the course too often pursued by breeders in saving every calf that has a pedigree, regardless of other qualifications. It lias come to be a common saying with some of our best breeders that more than one-half the Jerseys now in the country ought to have been sold for veal before they were six weeks old. J. D. Goodwin brings to light in the Sheep Breeder a new enemy of sheep the skunk. This odorous little animal attacked his flock and succeeded in kill ing two sheep. It caught them by the nose and held on in spile of the fiantic efforts of the sheep to throw it off. The beads of the wounded sheep swelled badly, and they lived but a few days, thus strengthening the general belief that the bite of the skunk is, to a certain degree, poisonous. Prof. Long, of England, says there are in every herd cows that are mere manure-makers or pickpockets. They have the same feed that the rest get, and yet they will not give one-half the milk. The cows are in the herd, yet the trou ble is to pick them out. They are gen erally frauds in the fact that they are the best looking cows of all. They give a good mess of milk for a short time and then drop almost out. It pays to get rid of all such cows. A PERFECT BAKING POWDER. The great success of the Royal Bak ing Fowder is due to the extreme care exercised by its manufacturers to make it entirely pure, uniform in quality, and of the highest leavening power. All the scientific knowledge, care and skill attained by a tweuty years' prac ticul experience are contributed toward this end, and no pharmaceutical prep aration can be dispensed with a greater accuracy, precision and exactnei-s. Every article used is absolutely pure, A nuniler of chemists are employed to test the strength of each ingrcdient.so that its exact power and effect m com bination with its co-ingredients, is defi nittly known. Nothing is trusted to chance, and no person is employed in the preparation of the Materials used or the manufacture of the powder, who is not an ex pert iu his particular branch of the business. As a consequence, the Royal Baking Powder is of the highest grade of excellence! way s pure wholesome and uniform in quality. Each box is exactly like every oilier, and will retain its powers and produce the same and the highest leavening effect in any climate at any time The Government Chemists, after hav ing analyzed all the principal brands in the market, in their reports placed the Royal Baking Powder at the head of the list for strength, purity, and wholcsonieness. and thousands of tests all over the country have further dem onstrated the fuct that its qualities are, . . , , in every respect, unnvaieu. f-The judges of the Stateof Delaware are the most venerable in years in the country.
