PARIsIAN TELEGRArus In Paris the
telegraph wires are lain under ground,
no poles being seen in t c streets. A
trench Is dug Twelve or fifteen inches
wide, IN winch the wires are placed side
by side, Lut So as not TO touch each other,
Liquid blutncu is then poured on, which
surrounds the wires and conpl, tely insu-
lates them. 1t secures them from damage
by accident or design, and from being
dcraDged 10y atmospheric influence --
The same plan is to be adopted at Lyons.

Marriage and Genius.

Sometoiy says all women, no matter
how schooled, or what their aitalnments,
have yearning desire to love and 10 be
loved again. The head can never be ed
ucated at the expense OF the heart, conse-
quently, II they cannot obtain such as
they could most venerate and respect.
they unite themselves to those who ten.
der them the love they have the need Of !,
they dream OF happiness and awake
10 disappointment, They find themselves
unapprec,ated, their tastes shocked, their
scnslblltles derlded. and drag out lives
of misery and wretchedness. Not alone
are women Of genius thus unhappy
Men, too, ale made miserable by uncon-
genial minds. Who can doubt that the
life Of Byron would have been better
and happier one had his wife been one
who could have sy synpathized with and
understood him. Mlton's domestic af-
tIlctlons sat heavy on his heart. Shelley 5
first marriage was fraught with conse-
qnences terrible 10 himself and others. -
burns verses met with no response from
those gathered around his hearth stone ;
and many others equally grca, have had
reason 10 curse In their hearts an Ill as
sorted marriage.

A Prayer for Remembrance

When my web Of life is woven,
And my death hour draweth nigh
When the golden rays Of sunshine
Bear my spirit to the sky;
When the "Silent Land" draws nearer,
With its glory shining bright, -
And my soul fees from its casing
To promised world of light
When my heart beats meath their trembling
Sinking metionless to rest,
And silence never broken
Lieth deep within my breast; r.
When my form is laid to slumber ~
Where the wild flowers drink the wind,
Oh, pray to be remembered ~
By the friends leave behind!
Love me net for good or evil
That has mingled in my heart,
Stirring up its tide of waters
With quick and sudden start;
And my words of care and sorrow,
And my earthly form forget
But amid your souls glad treasures
Let my spirit linger yet!
Let me come to you at even.
When the twilight breezes swell,
And when you shall feel its trembling,
Think I've loved you all so we'll
And within the world of spirits, s
If a. harpto me is given,
will touch its chords of music
To allure you up to heaven!

Vaudeville was one of the most re-
marksble men in Paris for his avarice.
At the age Of 70 he contracted f.
yer, which obliged him TO send for
the frst time in his life for surgeon
to bleed him, who, asking him ten-
pence was dismissed. He sent Cor
an apothecary but he was as high in
his demand. He sent for a barber
who at length agreed to undertake
the operation for threepence a time.
But, said the stingy old fellow, how
often viii it be requisite to bleed?'

About eight ounces, was the an.
