A COMPANION OP THE BATH. A correspondent of the London '• Times," after travelling through the dust and sliiuo on tho Lower Duuubo, roach cd Galatz and asked for a bath. He was told that the only batli lie could have was a hot one. Accepting the offer, he was shown to one of a range of rooms with a plunge bath in the corner. A sturdy Wallachian damsel of 25 was tho attendant. She spoke only a few words of Gorman, just enoughto ask whether he would have soap and alles. Seeing that there was nothing to dry himself with, he consontbd to have ivllos, though with w ith some misgivings as to the ultimate result. She told him to get into tho bath and ring when he was ready for some one to come to him. Ho rang {\ccord lngly, when she herself appeared with soap and towls, bare feet and mighty arms. She told him that the largo piece of flannel she hold in her arms was in tended to bo used by herself in cleaning him thoroughly. The offer was made in perfect simplicity ; thoro was not a touch of coquetry about her, and her baby out side was calling to her. In pursuit of hor legitimate calling, with the brawny inns which gained food for hor child, perhaps for a lazy husband, she proposed to wash him thoroughly, as sho would havo washed a child or a groom would clean a horse.
