The shop Gir.s os Paris.

The following is an extrGctfrom "Fresh
Gleanings" By X l1arvcl, sad is fair
specimen of the sprightly style which
pervades the w,,ole work:
"But if it be good philosophy to bear
meekly with the characteristics of the
shopmen-it is doubtless so with the shop
girls.
"The high-heeled shoes, the light
head-gear, that turned the soul Of poor
Lawrence Sterne, have indeed gone by,
but the grisetta pses;dcs ever gloves
and silks yet; and whatever she may do
with the heart-strings she makes thepurse
strings yield You VII lad her in every
shop of Paris-(excers that Of the ex-
change brokers, where are fat middle
aged ladies, who woull adofn the circles
of Wall Street. there she stands, with
her hair laid smooth OF ksT cheek, over
her forehead, in the prettiess blue muslin
dress you can possibly iRsgine-a bit
of narrow white lace running round the
neck, and each little hand ses of with
the same-and very witcs at the bar
gain. He who makes the shop girl of
Paris bate one jot Of price, must needs
have French at his tongde's end.
There may be two at sime, there may
be six, she is unabashed, she has the same
pleasing smile-the seme gentle courtesy
for each; and her eyes glance ike thoughts
from one to the other You may chat
she will chat back; you Ray scold, she
will scold back. She guesses your want;
there they are, the prettiest gloves, she
says, in Paris. You cannot utter half q
sentence, but she understands the whole;
you cannot pronounce so badly but what
she has your meaning in q moment
She takes down package upon package
she measures your hand, her light fingers
over yours-Quel2e jot.e petite main :
She assists in putting = fancy pair on
and how many pair does Monsieur wish?
But one l-ah, Monsieur is surely jo-
king. See what pretty colors-and she
gathers q cluster in her fingers and so
nice a ft-and she takes hold of the
gloves upon your hand.
Only two, ah, it is indeed too few, and
so cheap. Only fifteen francs for six pair
which is too little for Monsieur; and
she rolls them up in paper, looking you
all the time fxedly in the eye. And
there is no refusal-you slip the three
pieces of money on the counter, and she
drops them into little drawer, ndthanks
you in a way that makes you think as
you 90 out, that you have been paying
for the smiles and nothing for the gloves"

How They do IL.

The Boston Post drives nail in the right
place:
can English paper complains that for
some time past, il has been the open practice
of the French authorities to clear their coun-
try of idle, profigate, or criminal foreigners,
by sending them to England. Not fewer than
eight hundred doubtful characters have been,
within limited period, sent to this country"
That's the way it goes-the French send
their rogues to England the English add
enough of their own to the lot to double tho
number, and then ship the whole squad TO the
United States! Having done this, the knayes
who remain at home, sit down and deplore,
and philosophize about 'the low state of A.
merican morals" Modest isn't it!

"There is nothing" said Sir Samuel Rom
lily, "by which have through life more prof
tied than by the just observations, the good
opinion, and the sincere and gentle encour-
agement of an amiable and sensible woman"
He who is an ass and takes himself to be
a stag, when he comes to leap the ditch will
find out his mistake.
If the ladies had votes, how long would it
be before bill would be enacted, compelling
men to 60 home to their wives every night
before ten o'clock
Wary manhood hesitates to commit
himself by any sudden yielding to his
natural sympathies, while eager youth
grasps at friend as childhood at plea
sure, and erects fairy palaces of hope out
of dreams beautiful and feeting as the
Morgana of the Sicilian Sea.
Let us never forget that every station
in life is necessary; that each deserves
our respect; that not the station itself,
but the worthy fulfilment of it's duties,
does honor to a man.
True practical philosophy makes the
most of little pleasures, and the most of
everything.
We should give as we would receive,
cheerfully, quickly, and without hesita-
ton; for there is no grace in benefit
that sticks to the fngers.-Senaca.
Speaking of the goods of life, Sir VIII
liam Temple says =" the greatest plea
sure of life is love the greatest treasure
is contentment: the greatest ease is sleep,
and the greatest medicine is a true friend.
Affection, like spring flowers, breaks
through the most frozen ground at last
and the heart which seeks but for anoth
er heart to make it happy will never seek
in vain.

Play of Words.

Somebody Captain Donowho, if we must
give the names,) mentions an old saw-miller
in Maine, whose profane ob-structure of the
steam which "carried" his mill was itself
carried away by sudden freshet The mill
was old the machinery in its decadence; the
whole establishment "tottering 20 its fall."-
The owner was regarding the 4" Hoodwood of
his fortunes with q sad and wistful eye when
friendly by-stander consolingly said to him:
"Build another; it won't take you three
weeks to do it."
"Ah," said the ci-depdnt miller, looking at
the old naked edifice, which had no more
L" back-water' for background, ait amt
WOrth dam 2"
Mentioning this the other evening to a
friend, he said it reminded him of a d-m
which stopped the waters of river between
the mountains in one of our northern States
and which, by sudden fresh," was swept
away during the night. The owner of the
works thereon was we'll known gentleman
of honor and intellect, but irritable, notwith-
standing, and apt at times to give vent to his
aroused emotions. The neighbors, as usual,
gathered around, awaiting the arrival of the
owner, and specuating as to the manner and
language he would adopt, under the strong
provocation TO his " "pheelinks." He soon af-
ter arrived and probably suspecting from move
ments and signs about him, that the assembly
was waiting for an outbreak, very coolly sur
veyed the rushing river, and the sluice-way
it had opened, and turning to the people with
a bland smile, he said
'' | think, neighbors, you will agree with
me that this river ought to be dam-dr"

A Jewish Divorce.

A Jewish divorce was granted in this
city few days ago It is the first case
that has occurred here during thirteen
years. The applicant was the husband.
The mode of untying the knot is very
simple The aggrieved party lays his
case before the Chief Rabbi, who selects
two other Rabbis, and the three hear the
statement, call witnesses, and, if satisfied
there are grounds for a divorce, give to
the suitor writing of twelve hnes-no
more nor Lesson parchment. This is
signed by witnesses, who also see that
this party delivers it to the party Grim
mated. When this has been done, the
separation is complete, though the par
ties can be REMARKED if they wish; but
if the wife, for instance, should marry
another man, and he should die, the for
mer husband cannot again marry her
The woman in this case is not JewesS
by birth or education. She was connee-
ted with church, Shortly after the
marriage, she appealed most earnestly to
the Rabbis here to be admitted to the
Jewish faith, After considerable oppo-
sition, her wish was granted This is We
ry rare, and only one other instance has
occurred, so far as we can learn.-C'tyt-
ktRd (Ohipl PaiHtatr.

London Thieves.

Some OF the tricks of the swell mob at the
Crystal Palace have been curious. One thief,
dressed and looking like gentleman, pre-
tended to find bug on lady's dress, beg
ging her to allow him to kill noisome insect;
and she saw him take it off, She thanked
him warmly, and off he went. Fortunately
she Immediately perceived that she had lost
a valuable bracelet. She suspected her friend,
ed. He said, are you sure you would know
the man She said she was certain she
would. Then 90 and stand by the door till |
come to you. She did so, and the policeman
soon joined her. He had by telegraph, had
every door shut but the one they were at /;
they had not waited long when the lady said,
that's the man. The person was taken into
custody, searched, and on him was found a
small box, full of bugs, and the lady's brace
let.
Another "artful dodge" is thus related:
The high sheriff of city in the south OF
Ireland, while on a visit to the Crystal Pal
ace, was accused, to his great amazement, of
picking pockets, and upon this transferred to
the care of the police. The worthy gentleman
repudiated the charge with horror and indig-
nation; nevertheless, purse of Is sovereigns
was found in his pocket, which he avowed
did not belong to him. The protestations
and assurances of the high sheriff, who gave
his address, set the local authorities upon the
alert and after a sharp scrutiny of the visi-
tors, the detectives recognized noted men,
Der of the swell mob, who, it appears, n few
minutes before had relieved visitor of the
identical purse, which was instantaneously
missed, and the scoundrel, fearing exposure,
conveyed the purse with singular dexterityto
the pocket of the Irish high sheriff, who was
in his vicinity, and as quickly disappeared in
the crowd. Explanations and apologies fol-
lowed quite satisfactory, and the innocent
gentleman was restored to the society of his
sister and her daughter, whom he accompan-
led from Ireland to see the wonders of the
Exhibition.
Here is third illustration, showing the
principle Of "fraternity" among the swell
mob:
A French gentleman walking in the Crys-
tai Palace with an English friend, when the
conversation turned upon the pick-pockets OF
London; the former boasting that he did not
fear them, but defied them. His companion
determined to play trick, and, seizing ia
vorable moment, distracted his handkerchief
from his pocket. At the same moment the
Joker felt himself touched on the shoulder by
a very elegant gentleman, who took him aside,
and said, with a gracious smile
"Sir, see that you are one of us. Permit
me to offer you the first duties of hospitality,
by returning to you your snuff box, which
this moment made a seizure of.
The Engishman, slightly confused, but We
ry well satisfied with the result, bowed, took
his box, restored the handkerchiefto his friend,
and continued his route with his hands In his
pocket.

Curran was rare wit, but even he some
times met his match. He was once examin-

whom he in vain sought to obtain direct an
swer. At length he exclaimed, "Its no use
trying to get the truth ont of you, for see

New Cure for Consumption.

We find the following statements in
the Mobile Herald and Tribune, and if
substantiated, the discovery will be in
valuable. The quantity of the medicine
to be given at dose is not stated
In the first number of the New Orleans
Monthly Medical Register-which We no.
ticed few days ago, we find an article
by Professor Stone on the virtues of
" Phosphate of Lime in Scrofula and 9TH
er depraved states of the SYSTEM" which
is of some moment. 1t was suggested by
an essay in the London Lancet on phys
iology and pathology of the axalate and
and phosphate of lime, and their relation
to the formation of cells"
"The conclusions Of the author (says
Professor Stone) are based upon careful
chemical research and results from the
use of the remedy. His researches show
that in man, as we'll as in vegetables and
inferior animals, phosphate of lime as
well as albumen and fat is absolutely es-
sential for the formation of cells, and he
considers that many of the pathological
states of the system depended upon de-
ficiency of this salt. The affections in
which it is advised are alterations depen-
dent upon general dyscrasia, and not a
mere local affection infantile atrophy !;
in those suffering from rickets and conse-
quent diarrhema and tubereulous diseas-
es, particularly of the lungs in the early
stages"
Struck by this article, Professor Stone
tested, and he thus describes three cases
in which its effects were obvious. The
first was that of slave, who was admit
ted to the Professors Infrmary in July,
with disease of the nose, the whole sys-
tenn showing great progress in scrofulous
decay. The usual remedies were unsuc-
cessfully applied until August, when cod
liver oil was used, but the disorganization
of the stomach was increased by it. The
phosphate oflime was thenapplied-eigh ght
grains, three times day. Its good eff
fects were soon apparent 1t and the oil
were therefore administered together,
and the patient soon was restored to
health.
The second case is that of a young Ia
dy aged "a. Her disease was one OF "un-
mixed pathisis, which might have been
expected to terminate in the course OF a
few months" fatally. The upper part OF
both of her lungs were filled with tuber-
cles, and in some places were beginning
to soften. The case was evidently bad
one. The treatment of cod-liver was first
used, put without marked improvement.
The phosphate of lime was then admin
istered with the oil, and the result, as in
the case of the negro, was soon apparent.
The patient was rapidly getting well.
The third case was that of a child sew
en- years of age, in which the phosphate
of lime was used with complete success.
We can only refer briefly to those ca
ses for the purposes of directing attention
to the subject. Before the dreadful dis
eases which they describe scientific men
have stood abashed That there Is some
remedy for them we can hardly doubt ;
and this may, if new thing, be the de-
sideratum which science is III search of

Whal are Kisses 2

The Knickerbocker publishes the following,
th the remark that the lines are for the Pc
sal of young lovers in particular, and not
r general circulation -
What are kisses
Short lived blisses
AS the dew-drops in the sun;
Yet in giving
and receiving
Them, are hearts oft lost and won
Foolish Tipping,
Nectar slipping
Sweeter than the honeyed flowers
Such employment!
What enjoyment
1t imparts to twilight hours.
Bright eyes shining,
Brown locks twining,
Cheeks as ruddy as the rose;
Smooth chin rounded,
Straight neck bounded
BY heaving bosom's SHOWS!
All these charm me,
But not harm me
Half so much US ruby lips
Sweetly smiling,
Soul-beguiling,
AS sweet poison thence it sips.
Words they've spoken,
Trembling, broken,
Low, but all my frame they thrill;
Thine for ever
| will never
Cease to love thee, come what will!'
With blessing,
Fondly pressing
Many time those lips to mine,
Thus [ murmur,
Lovely charmer
too am for ever thine -
