The summer season, I fear, will be a fable this
year, for we have had four days Of rain and cold
since my last letter, in which mentioned that the
warm weather had made its appearance, and seemed
to have taken its abode among us. To-day the sun
is bright heads the atmosphere is as hot as
it ought to be at such time of the year, and the
summer clothes are quite rordre du jour. How
long will this last? Such is the question. This wet
temperature is much injurious to the crops and the
cursed o,dium tuckerii, sort Of mushroom of the
worst kind has, it appears, made its appearance in
the fields OF corn, rye, and other grain. AS it may
be Observed the potatoes were first attacked by the
disease, then the vine tree came next, and now this
year, the agricultursts complain Of the disease as
having attacked the mulberry tree, the corn, the
onion, and even, among the flowers, the roses, the
violets, the lilies, and the tulips. Decidedly,
Dame Nature is an old woman, full Of rheumatism,
pimpes eruptions, boils, and other cutaneous af
fections. How long will She live?
The Partisan life becomes to be dull and tedious,
and if the Bouevards were not crowded in the even
ing with foreigners of all countries, passing through
the city, or calling to pay short visit here, Paris
would be deserted. All the distinguished members
Of society have left their hotels, to spend their
summer leisure hours either in their chateaux, at
the different watering places Of Germany, or sea
bathing in the channel. The only place where some
fun and amusement Is to be had Is now at the Bots
de Boulogne, in the afternoon, or at the public gar
dens, in the evening.
Mobile, the Chateau des Fleurs, the Chateau
d'Amieres and the Ranelagh, are the rendezvous
Of all the gilt (by chemical process, Ia Ruoz)
youths Of Paris, and of many strangers of all coun-
tries. AS matter of course, the Americans are in
great number at all those places Of amusement and
more than any other people, our coun'rymen are
fond OF those loose pleasures which easy to be
obtained in the mighty city of Paris. On Tuesday
last which was gala night at Mobile, the crowd
was immense and had the pleasure Of meeting
there with several beautiful ladies from American
Cities who had come thither to have a sight incog
INTO.
very funny scene took place, which is worth
being related. gentleman from the States,
and Paris, had come to Mobile with the nten-
ton Of making love to beauty" and be loved by
her. He met there one of his friends, who had al.
ready made himself acquainted with "loness' of
the place. and who, after having offered her ice
creams, flowers and some presents was somewhat
entitled to q prize. Mr.. -, without any respect
FOR the sacred friendship began regular siege Of
the heart Of the beauty, and having shown :" GER
preceding evening at poker table, at the American
Club, he finally conquered the affections Of the lady
She accepted his arm and without knowing his
name, consented to take supper with him at the
4 Maison dor.
The other American, who saw tho trick, swore that
| he would have revenge, and taking favorable
opportunity he whispered in the ear Of one Of the
celebrities of Mobile, that NJ. =, one Of the
which the kept women are shown under such o bad
1 Lightly had dared TO venture into the Garden Of
Mobile. II must be known that this class OF womer
4 have combined TO revenge themselves upon M
4 - and his co laborer, M. -. As soon AZ
the news was spread around, the ladies wished u
know which was M. -; and Mr.. - having
been pointed out to them, they began to pelt hin
with Jumps of earth, stones, and other missiles
Fortunately for the American seducer he rescued
by the police, who took him out in safety, somewhat
bruised but kicking and alive. Whilst all this wa
taking place the friend Of Mr. - was clipping witt
| Mile Mathilde and -. You may understand al
the rest. This affair has been the cause Of mucf
laughter among the Americans In Paris.
The grand exhibition OF flowers, made by thu
Societe d Horticulture, Of the Department Of l.;
seine was opened on Friday last, and visited during
five days by all the amateurs Of floral presents |
offered magnificent sight, and the Emperor vel
as the Empress visited it on Friday. The beaut.
and species Of flowers exhibited were quite re
markable, and the premiums awarded to tn
bronze medals, which were distributed with muc
lberality and accuracy My readers are pei
haps not aware that the trade Of flowers i
| the different markets OF Paris amount to abou
10000 francs week, without mentioning in tina
number the sale of flowers bought at the differen
gardens Of Paris and its neighborhood. The onl

bles Ia the markets of Paris is reported to amount
