One interesting phase Of American Life
abroad is portrayed with good deal OF shad-
ing in letter printed in the New York Evening
Post from German lady whose works have
been translated and widely read in this country.
She gives the results OF her observation in
Dresden, whittier goodly number Of Ameri-
can mothers have since the war taken their
daughters to be educated. To the astonish-
ment of German wives and mothers, who can
not understand how domestic ties can be so
lightly broken, these American ladies leave
their husbands behind. "America," she writes,
shas been called among US the Paradise OF
"women but our German women no longer
s'enyy them this paradise, in which Adam
"could do without Eve. In consequence,
''these roaming ladies, who prefer pleasure to
aduty, are looked upon with sort Of contempt
ssthat has fallen as q shadow on a great mo-
tstion."
The quality of the education given to Ameri-
can children also e1cites the astonishment ol
Of these practical and painstaking German
mothers. The children are impressed with the
belief that in Germany culture comes by inspi-
ration, and that whatever requires effort and
selt-sacri6ce is not worthy Of them. Costly
dresses, e1travagant entertainments, and op-
portunities for flirting are provided to keep
them in good humor. The mothers have re-
oeptiop days and state festivities. They have
balls, parties and masquerades. They go to
vvu,t .ad make themselves conspicuous.
when spring comee-zs rne nHrt paurern lor
the water brook-they fly to the watering
places, to Italy, Switzerland, anywhere for
change. OF course, under these influences,
American children are the despair Of German
teachers, and the mothers themselves lose the
opportunity II helping them by sighting the
overtures Of cultivated German society.
One more bitter plum from this letter is that
in which the writer accounts in brief for the
alleged unpopularity of Americans abroad.
They do not feel like reciprocating kindness.
They say as Frederick the Great said OF Vol
taire, "I squeeze the orange and then throw
.'awsy the rind." But Voltaire never forgave
having been squeezed, Notwithstanding o king
had done him the honor, and "the Germans do
'snot like to be squeezed, though Americans
"do them the honor"

Violent Storm I'm California

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. IA heavy rain
storm has prevailed for the last two days
throughout the State, by which railroad and
telegraph communication has been interrupted
in all directions. A portion OF the San Jose X. H.
was washed away, and the track OF the Central
Pacific covered. by the water from the Sacra-
mento river which OVERLOADED its banks. The
bridges on the California Northern road were
swept away by the floods. There were also
severe storms in the mountains, and the snow
drifted from II to Is feet deep in places Snow
slides are reported along the Central Pacific
road near Emigrant Gap and Cisco, destroying
portions of the snow sheds. Thus far the
trains have only been detained few hours.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb l2.-Reports from
the interior indicate that che recent storm was
the most destructive since the winter OF 1862,
1t visited every portion Of the State, Santa
Clara and San Joaquin valleys suffering the
greatest The lower portion Of the city OF
Stockton was flooded, cellars and all the prin-
cipal streets were filled ny the Calvanas river
overfowing its banks. No loss of life has yet
been reported.

General Cushing's Mission, DC.

NEW York, Feb. 13,-The steamship Henry
Chauncey has arrived from Aspinwal. She
brings Panama dates to the fifth of February;
also $247 900 in treasure.
Official instructions have been sent to Aspin-
wall to collect in full, the Commercial tax. The
merchants resist the collection, and have al
lowed their goods to be seized, Mr., Price, the
American Consul, had protested against the
collection.
Gen. Cushing, United States Special Com
missioner to Bogota, is passenger by the
Henry Chauncey. The Star and Herald says
that Gen. Gushing has been entirely successful
in his mission concerning the Isthmus Canal
and takes home treaty to be approved by
Congress, when tho work on the canal will
commence at once. Gen. Gushing was hand
somely entertained in Panama.
The report of an attempt to poison President

ROBBERY. The shop of Mr.. Christopher

$3.50 worth OF groceries and dry goods, and a

did break one of the two locks that fastened
that door, but the other resisting all their eff

back door, which they forced open with q
Jimmy. A remarkable circumstance exists in
connection with this robbery, and that is that
though large and ferocious dog was locked up
IN the shop last night, and must have had a
terrible conflict with the robbers, for pieces of
their clothing were found scattered over the
floor of the shop this morning, and the dog
bears the marks of severe injuries about his
mead and face, the family of the proprietor of
the shop, who sleep 10 the adjoining building,
heard nothing OF the noise that must have en-

from practice prevalent in ancient Rome at

monies, the names ofyoung women were placed
IN box, from which they were taken by young
