ed Potts.
The wind howled around the house
rattling the windows, shrieking down
the chimneys, and whistling through
the key-hoies, SO that it was almost
impossible to hear anything else, but
they all listened,
"What was it?"- inquired Plush,
after a momentary; silence. '' e.. e..
l'I thought I heard a hanoo," said
Potts: at might ha' been-there It's

S''It can't be possible ~ exclaimed
Bradford, running to the door. Plush
and P otis followed him. fi -1=l.sa n.s1
z Bradford pulled the outside door
open, blast of wind blew the snow
in his face aud put out the light
which he held in. his hand.
"Halloa!'' cried the landlord, peer
there ?" ...-- .'''
"Why,, it's me-Shoggs. of course,
answered a hoarse voice. "Why
don't you show light ? Got a pass

here for fifteen minutes. Didn't know
for certain whether I was near the
Golden Lion or not. Look, out sir,

swell, well, 1 declare, Shoggs, I
didn't expect to see you tonight, "
said Bradford, leading the way into
the barroom, while the hostler ran out
to take care of the horses ...
l...'I thought, at one time, that it was
very doubtful about your ever seeing
me again. answered Shoggs, as he
seated himself in large armchair in
front of the blazing fire. "Draw up,
sir, draw, and let's see if we can't get
the frost out of our bones," address

Fup when he came in, that little Mr..
Potts who Kept his eye upon him scru
tinizingly, couldn't make Hout what
sort of a man he was at. first. His
head and face were buried in fdrs,
and he wore two heavy overcoats,
which gave him-the appearance of a
very corpulent individual. But when
he took off. his hat you discovered
that his hair was very, black, very
glossy, and very luxuriant; and you
could see, toed that his'Eeyes were
dark and rather handsome andiNhen
he removed his furs, you could see
that he had a fine straight nose, not
quite large enough to be in the way,

right kind of nose-a nose that j

The consu nption of beer, notwithstanding
this ls.ge expenditure on wine, is greatly
on the increase last year it amounted to
II 100000 francs. The consumption of
chocolate is also largely increasing; its
annual value now amounts to $4,000, 000f
Another favorite article of food is pastry.
There are in Paris 622 psssrycooks, whose
gross receipts amount yearly to upwards of
2l,000 900 francs.s Besides this l04 200, 900
francs are spent every year BY the Parisians

TRADE AND GENERAL BUSINESS.

s<s~o 0NO 0000hhA oOokN8 00.
There il general complaint from al
departments of business of dullness, a
stagnation and steady falling off during
the last SIX months. This is in a measure
we'll founded and could not we'll be other
wise under the existing circumstances WIN
class legislation, congressional Protec'ion'
high taxes, and congressional swindhng In
almost every form.
During the last thirty days, We have
probably talked with hundred of the lead
ing business men of the East and West, and
they oil tell the same story, and attribute to
ruinous congressional legislation the whole
state of affairs. Both Republicans and
Democrats are agreed upon these things,
and 1t seems strange that even the much
abused New England manufacturers should
thus be found condemning the pArtizan leg
islstion of Congress ever since the war.
And where the protected Pennsylvania iron
manufacturers find their profits falling off.
Instead of looking to a change in Legislators
for relief they look to the West ana her
crops to contribute a surplus that will
relieve the stagnation.
And SO it will go on. Times will gro"
better for a few months, and then Wih come
the dull season. We learn from our oSnA
ers. business men, and from eastern faeh
Who do business with our folks, that Rock
Island to day feels those dull times less than
any other city 10 the country. This is a
nut Tor the Union to crack And 1t is
under democratic rule. The taxes are pro-
porsionally less than most any other city,
with no heavy grinding debt, and with
bright prospects for increased wealth, man
afscturing and trade of all kinds. This is
due to the wise democratic legislation in
connection with our natural and acquired
advantages. We are at the central point
here in the Great West-a West rich in
agriculture, inexhsustble in mineral depos
its, enjoying advantages possessed by no
other district for commerce-and lying, as
it does, not merely midway between oceans,
but on the direct line of transit between the
old and the new world, will be the earliest
TO respond to the improving state of things,
to keep pace with the marc of progress, we
do not doubt, and therefore, are not only
sanguine for the future, but confident of the
steady and progressive advance Of our own
fair city, and OF its eventual attainment of
the proudest position in the west.
