HOMÈ LIFE IN BRAZIL.
̧ ́›PARA (Brasil), March 1, 1883. The streets of the business part of the city of Para are very narrow. A few are well paved with limestone, imported at ari enormous expense from Portugal. The other streets of the town are macadamized with the one sort of stone that is common in Brazil. This common stone is composed of very small quartz crystals and ochre cement. It is exceedingly soft and under the heavy wheels of the clumsy vehicles rapidly crumbles to a fine red dust, which would be intolerable but for frequent wetting. Street sprinkding is wholly performed by the clouds, and as this section lies in the zone of calms a dally shower is expected. It usually falls about 4 p.m. and with so great regularity that daily appointments are made with reference to the rain. No qutlandish invention" could so thoroughly wash through the best-paved
parts of the city and it is to be hoped that no other sprinkler would leave such wretched pools of water in fine red sand of the macadamized streets. Wind ing among the elegant dwellings of the more wealthy classes of people the streets are wide beautifully planted with trees of various orts. Sometimes the palk-cotton" trees are sometimes the far famed planted, but by far the commonest are the man- goes, Brought from the East Indies, the mango flourishes in luxuriant beauty and its thick, clustering foliage form one of the most striking features of Para, muking this city stand out in bold relief among the other individualities and peculiarities of various Brazilian cities.

Quite numerous in the city of Para are the Catholic cathedrals, in which no seats are pro vided and where the worshippers are all expected to kneel throughout the entire service.

t is also a much better means of
protection from the fierce heat of tropic suns. The outer walls and even the partitions are built three feet thick, in order to support the crushing weight of the heavy earthen tiles of the roof. The outsides of the brick houses are sometimes colored pink, blue, green, yellow or white, but they are for the most part covered with porcelain tiling, in which blue and white predominate, but in which almost every color or combination of colors may sometimes be seen. This tiling is always of the same form, five inches square and nearly half an inch is thickness. Sometimes one a design, but commonly it takes pace forms id of the pieces set together to form a figure The tiling is fastened either with cerrent or with mortar on the brick walls. When not of glass the outer doors are almost invariably painted bright green, and without exception both win- dows and doors open in the centre and swing on hinges into the room. In many cases blinds or "fatticed windows" are used in place of glass windows, and these are frequently suspended at the top, so that they may be turned outward and propped into a kind of awning for the window. The outer doors and the windows are all pro-
vided with wooden shutters, which are made to exclude the hot sun and are faithfully used to shut out the night air, of which the people are so much afraid that every house looks like a dungeon when its inmates are sleeping.
Perhaps one reason for these well-nigh ber metically scaled windows and doors ja' found in the fact that vampire bats abound, and they are sometimes so bloodthirsty that a strong horse that has been exposed to their ravenous appe- ties for a single night will be staggering and weak in the morning.

Ore of the greatest cares of a lady's life in the Diamond Empire is her daily trial with her un- faithful and lazy servants. The curse of slavery falls on the master through the half-perfomed labour of the bondiman, and the weariness of flesh caused by watching the listless work of a slave is almost as great as to do the work with one's own hands. Through all the world's his
tory there never yet has been a land whwe slavery was anything but a wretchedy expensive institution.
