THE COSSACK OF THE DON.

We take the following account from a war correspondent who came across the Cossacks at Galatz :

Friend Cossack is a little chap; ere five feet five, even on his high heels, butat - His wea n face is shrewd, knowing and merry. His eyes are small, but keen; his mouth ‘ face—is a tuft or wisp of straw-coioured moustache. His long, thick, straight hair matches his mous» tache in colour, and is cut sheer round by the nape of his neck, He wears a round oilskin peakless shuko with a knowing cock to the right, to maintain which angle there is astrap. Below the neck the Cossack is all boots and great»coat exteriorly, The great.coat, which is of thick grey blanket« ing. comes down below his knees; his boots come uptothem. He is more armed than any man of his inches in Europe, is our little Cossack friend, and could afford to lose & weapon or two and yet bean aver. agely dangerous customer. Weapon nuns ber one is the long black flagless lance, with its venemous head that seems itching to make daylight through somebody. He carries a carbine slung in an oilcloth cover on his back, the stock downwards. In his belt is a long and well.made revolver in « leather case, and from the belt hangs a curved sword with no guard over its hilt, Through the chinks in his great coat are visible glimpses of a sheepskin undercoat with the hair worn inside (to-day at noon the thermometer was over 70 in the sun. ) His whip completes his personal appur- tenances; he wears no spurs. He rides cocked up on a high saddle, with a leaths ern band strapped over it, a wiry little rat of a pony, with no maiiddle-piece to speak of, with an ewe neck and a gaunt, project, ing head, with ragged flanks, loose hockss limp fetlocks, shelly feet, and a general aspect of knackerism. But the screw is of indomitable gameness and toughness— lives where most other horses would starve —is fresh when most other horses are knocked up—and is fit to carry its rider across Europe, as Cossack ponies have done before to.day. The Circassian Cossacks differ in some respects from the Don Cos. sacks. They ride larger ponies, they wear busbies of Astrachan fur with a scarlet bushy bag, and their great coat is black, having their bosom siashed with a recept- able for cartridges, while they carry their carbine in 4 cover of Astrachan fur,

GOOD TASTE,

The very basis of good taste is formed by common sense, It teaches a man, in the first place, that more than two elbows are highly inconvenient in the world; and, in the second, that the fewer people you jostje on the road of life the greater your chance of success among men or women. It is not necessary that 2 common-sense man need be an unimaginative man; but it is neces- sary that his imagination should be well regulated. Good taste springs from good sense, because the latter enables him to understand, at all times, precisely where he is, and what he ought to do under the cireumstances of his situation. Good taste isa just appreciation of the relationship and probable effects of ordinary, as well as extraordinary, thinks; and no man can have it unless he is iv the habit of consid- ering his own position, and planning his own actions with coolness and accuracy.
