CATCHING PICKPOCKEr-A countryfnan
from Normandy recently visited Paris, and
had his pocket picked. This so annoyed him,
he determined TO punish the next pickpocket
who robbed him. He contrived sort OF Slip
knot which should. arrest the fhief's hand.
While visiting the Louvre, he felt q pick
pockets hand in his pocket, and saw that he
had caught the thief. He determined TO enjoy
hislvengeance before delivering the rogue to the
police. So he quickly walked from. picture

for the thief dared not say word. He had
enjoyed the rogue's torment for an hour. when
he determined 70 deliver him to q policeman
about thirty yards on. When he got near the
policeman he turned around to collar his pris-
oner-there was nobody! The rogue had cut
the Norm and's coat tail and made on with 1t.

Our Heayy Repor,s or COMA.

Sunday Hel5 York Reraldts money GTf6ole-,-
1t Is generally believed, and very reA-
Sonably, that afGer the arrival in Eng
land OF the twenty millions of gold we
have lately sent, there will be great
rebound from the recent depression in
the prices OF securities of all descrip-
tons, but especially our own. We
have proved pillar of strength to the
Old World in responding so promptly
to her necessities, and although our
gold Will arrive long after the panic has
committed its ravages it Will be none
the less useful in replenishing empty
Golfers and restoring confidence gener-
ally. The arrival of so much gold from
the United States will indeed be a great
i sensation and as welcome as an album
dant harvest following an appalling
I famine. The semi-bankrupt nations of
Continental Europe will look with Won
I der upon the prOdigal shipments of coin
E from a country in a state OF suspension
( after passing through the greatest war
{ in the worlds history. Bull this Is only
one side of the picture. The gold we
+ have lost is to US a source of weakness
and not of strength. The spendthrift
NAV fling away his substance as reck-
lessly as the Treasury sold its gold at
lS6, and he, too, will make a sensation
and a show; but it is only until his re-
sources are exhausted, when he disap-
pears from his pedestal, like gourd.
Our national vanity may be hattered
/ by the idea of our being able to ship
such an amount of gold as We have
done within so short a time; but we
must not sacrifice principle and nation
al interest for effect or any amount OF
yain-glory. This is a great country;
but the Secretary of the Treasury is not
agreat financier by any means.

ONE fact about the recent speech oil
Napoleon makes it doubly significant
his detestation Of the treaties of 1876
the announcement which SO startled
Europe-was not spoken at all at
Auxerre, but was written ont amer his
return to Paris, and sent to the JfoHi-
tetrr to be inserted, as it afterwards APP
peared, in the speech. The foreign am
bassadors ut Paris called at once upon
II. Drouyn de Lhnys and asked an ex-
plantation OF the Emperor's utterance;
and the oily diplomat assured them that
Napoleon's statements were purely
theoretical and could have no mean
ing of character TO disturb the good
understanding between France and
other powers.P He acknowledged,
however, that the speech was made in
reply to the one by NJ. THEIRS. At the
same time an article, evidently in
spired, appeared in the Paris CbRstitU-
tionnel, which declared that the policy
of France was to reform the treaties of
1875, and in the same breath asserted
that the Emperor's speech meant peace.
But France and all Europe know bet
ter, and events will prove it.

WE are glad to see that the Senate
evinces disposition to proceed at once
with the consideration of the recon
struction question. We do not think
there is much weight in Mr.. Summers
argument for delay. Copious testimony
concerning the condition of the South
ern States has been taken. The data,
on which to form opinions, are at hand.
The people desire Congress to complete
its plan of reconstruction The Presi-
dent long ago laid down his plan. He
gained many friends to it merely by a
prompt announcement of it Many
persons prefer any plan whatever to no
plan at all. But few weeks more of
this session remain. Considerable time
will be required by the Senate to dis
cuss the plans now before it. Wetrust
therefore that it will go on until a result
Is reached.

Mr.. BARSuM is credited with a good
thing apropos of the Senatorial election
in Connecticut. After the vote in the
House was announced, says The Bridge

had been cast against the caucus. nomi-
nee, copperhead acquaintance went
up to Mr.. Barnnm and said: "well, we

TI,e ..Fast,, I.adie. ofLondon.


We have, as you know, says the Lon
don correspondence of the Manchester
Times under date of May LIST, been get
ting tolerably fast in our manners at
the West End. The present season has
witnessed a further development of
feminine independence. Ladies clubs"
are this year the Ego" in the most fash
ionabIe circles. The young and I'M
married ladies do not take part in them
70 any great extent; the "frisky ma
irons" there reign supreme. Although
these assemblies, which are held, as
general rule, in the afternoon, at the
house OF the members, are called
"ladies' clubs" gentlemen are not ex-
cIuded. A ticket to the "Scuffers" or
to the "Jolly Dogs'2those are the
names of two of the most fashionable
Is reckoned a great favor, and can only
be obtained by those who are in high
favor with presiding authorities, among
whom more than one duchess occu-
pies a prominent position. The
and smoking-the ladies doing their
part manfully with their cigarettes.
To give you some idea of the freedom
of manners which these reunions are
intended to promote, may state that
the "Scuff1eSn are so called because at
their gatherings chairs and tables
are banished from the room, and
floor or ON low diyansl Without
saying for moment that there is
anything wrong in these things, i
cannot conceal from myself that they
tend to encourage a "fondness" of
manner, to use an expressive slang
phrase-which is now becoming very
conspicuous among our upper ten. An
example of this was afforded very con-
spicuously fhe other night at one of the
West End theatres, where the curtain
was actually dropped because a very
aristocrntic party in private box near
the stage could not be induced to mod
crate the conversation they were carry
ing on. The curtain was not drawn up
again until the said party had left.

THE authority given by the govern
ment 10 the Bank of England to violate
its charter during the late panic in Lon
don, was very different thing from a
permission tosuspend specie payments.
Ever since 1874, when Sir Robert Peel
gave new constitution to the bank,
its circulation has been restrained by
law TO sI4, 900, 600 on the basis of the
capital stock, and to such additional
sum in notes as it shall actually have
on hand at the time in gold and silver
reserve. The authority granted the
other day was simply to over-pass, if
necessary, this legal limit, and to issue
for the time being. on good securities, a
sum in notes larger than the aggregate
OF s14, OOO, 600 and the specie reserve.
This is the third time the ministry has
suffered the bank tovioIare its charter
in this regard. The first instance was
in 1871, the second in 1857, when Geo.
Peabody was saved from failure by it,
but it does not appear that in the late
instance the bank ayailed itself of the
permission given. The mere announce
ment of the authorization went far to
calm the panic. . CIR
