this, we have only to cite the report of
the First Collins Cheese Factory of
Erie county, N. y, for. 1869, where the
average from 730 COWS was 400 pounds of
cheese per COW; and 200 to 800 pounds of

RED TAPE IN FRANCE. One bf the
French corresponds hts sends this story
from Tours: A curious anecdote is
told of French red tapeism, as some peo.s
pie will call their administrative system,
which with its arrangement of wheels
within wheels has approached so near 10
absolute perfection that the slightest
gra n n OF dust is sufficient tn disarrange
the Whole machine. When The min
listers arrived at Tours, M. Lourier, on
taking possession of his iffices in he Pre-
lecture, was greatly surprised at finding
a sentinelion duty in one of the inner
passages.
L.. Lourie could see no reason for the
mans presence there, as the other
entries were not guarded, aud his only
duty appeared to be To keep every one
passing through In the centre of the hall.
Inquiries were made of the local author

the sentry had always been posted thre,
nobody could tell the reason why. Still
more anxious, the Minister directed the

discovered that, three-and twenty years
before, the corridor had been freshly pain

keep the public from rubbing against the

been issued since that time, and so, since
March 1847, an armed soldier had con
