A MOST COMPLICATED TRANSACTION IN
New ORLEANs-A STEALING -CANING-CHAL-
LEHGING AFFAIR.-They have q queer way
Of doing things in New Orleans. A grocer,
through the aid of neighboring variety
dealer, detected a clerk pifering articles
from the grocery store. The grocer told the
clerk to leave quietly, as he did not wish to
expose him. The clerk sued for back wages,
and the grocer offered half the sum claimed,
which was refused, and the grocer proved
the thefts, and the clerk had to pay the
costs Clerk then challenged grocer to
duel with broadswords, but grocer declined
to fight with thief. The nephew of the
clerk, who bore the challenge then chal-
lenged grocer who accepted his offer. Mean
while said nephew met and savagely caned
the variety man, who had testified to his
uncles dishonesty. The duel was to have
come off on certain day, and about 100
persons had assembled at the place ap-
pointed to see the fght-but it seems the
duelists did not come to time,n having
either been stopped by the police or gone to

A Lover Finds Happiness In His DIsap


A correspondent at Northern watering
place thus reveals how he once passionally
suffered and was cured 3.
Down in an inner pocket of that valise;
there lies perfumed little glove; years have
fed since it was worn, yet the scent of the
rose-leaves IL once pressed clings to 1t STILL
you might turn each of its fingers wrong
side out and discover nothing therein--yet
that little glove contains the history Of
life--a two-volume romance set in nonpareil
solid. 1t is a memento of a watering-place;
II tells where met my fate; and postscript
in the thumbTlining tells where our paths
diverged. She was passionately fond of
music, and your spondent-though he
hadn't thought of it before--suddenly dis
covered that he "had an ear but no voice."
Subsequent events led him to believe that
his ears were much longer proportienately
than his voice was loud. Well, from long
meter and short meter the transition to meet
her by moonlight was quite natural. In the
course Of one Of these moonlight meetings
II was in June, remember the month per-
fectly, and could tell you the day were it
necessary-I gave her my young hearts
affections, and ruby ring and red rose;
and she--she gave me that glove you see
there, and said she'd always be my friend.
She is married now to small lawyer in the
southern part of Illinois, and has two small
children and the fever and ague. i"

INooNCEIvABILrTY OF THE NATIONAL DEBT

serves: sour national debt is the nearest

So little can we grasp it, and so much do we
class it with other eternities and other in
fnitiess, that. in order to be practical we take
bits oft, and play in our fancy with an odd
ten million or so. What know we about
100000 900 Sterling? 1t is like the distance
offs fixed star, or the bulk of the sun, or the
length Of comets tail, or the velocity of
light. House and land, stock and share,
mortgages and bill-every thing has its ups
and downs; but that which changes last is
the three-per-cents. The commercial spirit
loves their modest, faithful, constant charac-
ter, their equal mind, their moderation in
help in time of need, their open, honest

PROGRESS OF THE IMPROVEMENTS IN PARIS.
The transformation of the fower-plantations
Of the grand avenue of the Champs Elysees
proceeds rapidly. For some days past con-
siderable number of workmen have been in
possession Of the square-plot of the CIRQUE,
where masses of shrubs and flowers are to be
placed, as on other portions of this delight
ful promenade. Meanwhile, the elegant
fountain called Les Quatre Saisons, having
been coppered over is being put in its place
again. The flowers to be planted in the
Cdrre du Cirque were recently purchased by
the Municipal Council of Paris in Holland.
and most of them are in full bloom. The
rhododendrons, the kalmais, the azalias, and
the cannas are said to be very fine specimens.
The environs of Paris, as we'll as the capital.
receive fresh improvements. In the Park of
Yesinet, spontaneously fixed upon by the
Parisians as site for country-seats, a second
and vast lake has been formed; and the sit
uation, naturally picturesque, has been rem
dered more SO by the earthworks thrown up
to render the ground more undulating.
Water in abundance is to be supplied by
powerful steam machinery, which the en-
gineers are putting in place in the building
near, the reservoir. Moreover the two
bridges over the railway, uniting both sides
of the park, are finished so that, hencefor-
ward, Vesinet will rank among the most de-
hghtful summer residences about Paris.

ACCOUNT OF THE ORIGIN OF FEMALE
SLAVERY IN ArRIcA.-In Senjero, in Africa,
only females are sold into slavery, because
once wife cruelty murdered her husband at
frat the king ia said to have desired the hus-
band, who was of high rank, to kill his wife
and bring him piece of her flesh, which had
been indicated by the sooth-sayers as a sure
cure for the sick monarch. The husband,
fascinated by the beauty ofhis wife, was un-
willing to obey the royal command. The
king, therefore, commanded the wife to MUIR
der her husband, which she did without
hesitation. Since that time IL has been the
custom to sell women into slavery into other
countries; but when male slaves are trans
ported beyond Senjero, they are said gener-
ally to commit suicide by hanging them
selves. ~ 80. - I---I-l

Terrible Character Of the Zcphirs q
.f Africa.

.|f Africa
A correspondent, speaking Of the aims Of
the French Emperor in Asia and Africa, thus
speaks of the Zephirs, q wild and almost
lawless military body, formed out Of the very
worst elements of the French army;
These zephirs, to whom the Zouaves are
as sucking babes, are the corps perdus, or
corps de discipline, formed out of the refrac-
tory soldiers of the army, who have served
their time in prison, or at the hulks and who
are Immediately, on regaining their liberty,
drafted off into the Zephirs, who are sent
into the most unhealthy out-stations of
Africa, on the borders of the desert, where
they live the life of savages rather than of
civilized men, warning with the Arabs,
chased by wild beasts, starved and stinted
when the rations fall short, which, from the
want Of roads, not unfrequently happens in
the rainy season; fighting among them
selves; in short, living the lawless life of
briRands, subject to one law alone, that of
the strongest. Sometimes these military
convicts, like our own civil convicts of Aus
tralia, escape into the desert, and have been
known to reappear with sunburnt skin and
camers-hair burnous, with broad straw-hat
and arms bare to the shoulder, flying at the
head of company of Kabyles, and cutting
right through the Zaphir camp, when such
mOVe ~ Heeueu tO procure IOOO OF water for
their horses, and leaving their ancient COM
rades thunder-struck at the volley of French
oaths, which seem to explode from beneath
the hood and broad straw brim as they gallon
like lightning through the camp.
With such an education as this no wonder
that those who live through the first year
can live forever. No climate, or change or
discipline can effect hardened Zephir. The
officers ofthis corps are equally blessed; they,
too, are convicts, having undergone punish
ment. AS this is known, they, of course,
expect none of the submission and respect
sought for in other branches of the service
andtreat upon equality with their men. Some
years ago, there was story told of one of
the officers having endeavored to establish
some sort ofpenalty for theft in the regiment
he commanded, and having been shot down
without mercy for his pains--the two cul-
prits whom he had wished to bring to court
martial having coolly played the closing
game" at piquet for the disagreeable Job Of
sending bullet through his brain. Needless
to say, the loser acquitted himself most con-
scientiously of the debt of honor, the whole
of the company to which the players be-
longed standing round to see fair play.

CowARDLY ATTACK BY RowDIEs ON A RAIL-

sEHGER.--As the train of cars was returning
from Norristown, Penn, at late hour the
other night with the Philadelphia delegates
of the Peoples party, some dastardly scoun-
drels, lying in wait on the track, made
cowardly and uncalled for attack on the
train, with stones and other missiles. The
windows Of the cars were guarded with
wire grating, thus preventing the stones
from entering the train and injuring any one
therein; but they were also hurled at persons
on the platform, and two young men were
seriously injured about the head, and others
almost blinded. 1t was reported at late
hour last evening that young man, named
George Hawthorn, was struck on the head
with a large stone, and knocked off the cars
