A French man's Lucky Mistake.

A Paris correspondent has the following
story Of Easter eggs AMI presents:
Easter eve a wealthy banker went to
one Of the famous jewelers. shops in the
Rue de la Paix and asked to look at some
bracelets. As his face was familiar, the
handsomest on hand were shown to him,
and he selected one which cost him 81 900.
He put his visiting card in the casket
which contained the jewel and ordered all
to be placed in great sugar egg-for our
Easter hens are confectioners. 'Send that

of popular dancing girl of tho grand
opera. He adds: "By the way. show me
some rings-not too costly" He selected
ring Of 800 and placed it in sugar
egg, "Send that to Nine --," giving
his wiie's name. He paid for both articles
and tripped with light step to bis club.
What gives more buoyancy than light
conscience? s.''
He dined at his club. played his sccus
toned game of whist. and about 10 o'clock
made his way to the rcing girls lodgings.
She was lolling on her sofa. She received

the latter: "Cecile show your hand to
Mr.. Meanness." Cecile, with the charsc
teristic impudence of lorette abigails,
thrust her hand in the bankers face. He
saw glittering on it the 500 ring he had
selected for his wife. The dancing girls
boudoir was not as agreeable that night rs

Of victory would be heard far up above; and
that the angels, standing upon the battlcments

The President then attempted to enter the
Presidential mansion, but was intercepted ia
the carriage-way by the ladies and gentlemen
who bad collected there, and who insisted upon
shaking him by the hand. The President, very
good-naturedly, complied, and held sort of
impnmptu levee, shaking hands with oil WHO

SALr-lf you spill salt, it is sign thero
will be quarrel in the family. This sign il
supposed to date back to the time of the "last
SUPPER" when one of the Apostles-was it
Judas?-turned over the salt cellar, which was
premonition of what was to f0llow.l But if
small portion of the salt thus spilled be cast
into the fire, it is said to counteract the inf1u.
ence. Be very careful not to spill the salt, or
anything else. .-...

They are not the advertisement of patent

The Chicago Republican has the follow

The Chicago Republican has the follow
ing comment on tho testimony just pub
lished in the assassination trial: @
1T goes farther to implicate jeff. Davis
and his gents in Canada than any testi-
mony yet made public; indeed, it is almost
too circumstantial'in some particulars to be
received with implicit crcdence. One of
the witnesses appears to have been gov.
ernment detective, stationed in the midst
Of the conspirators and in the secret of
their plottings. 1t is wondrous strange,
il this mans statements are all true, that
the govert'nent should have closed its eyes
to the operations Of the assassi,s, and
suffered them to bring their diabolical
scheme to focus right under its nose-
Such, however, from the statements Of
Montgomery and Conover, appears to have
been the fact"

abound with the same material. Cattle tracks
filled with water were covered by it, More
than this, deposits of a substance resembling
yellow tallow,' and that "had the smell OF
kerosene" were found along the creek and in
the swamps. Indeed, the whole country there.
