4 Literary Pair.

The New York correspondent of the Louisville
Courier Journal writes as follows: :. The Indian
Summer has set in and vacations are over. The
artists and authors who have been out of town
have nearly ali returned 10 the city and to their
work. One OF the latest arrivals among them,
MIR. Parton, who has been spending the Sum
mcr at Newport. / lately on Broadway
taking his afternoon walk with ms wife Fanny
Fern They have both enjoyed the season at
Newport and speak in the highest terms of its
climate and society. Parton worked like a
horse, a. usual, all the time while there be-
sides bathing daily in the surf and driving out
in a One-horse phaeton with his wife. He will
soon start on Winters lecturing tour and
will be absent some months. The home of this
literary pair is a most attractive place, thor
oughly expressive OF comfort and filled with
books and other proofs of taste. A colossal bust
of Clyde stands by the window on a pedestal
and peeps through the curtains at the visitor
co com up the steps as II II were living Chro-
hang on the walls. On an etarge with well.
bound books, stand busts of Beecher and But
Ter, moral antipodes as pubic men, but both
warmly admired for their personal qualities by
the occupant. OF the house, Mr.. Parton's work.
ing-room is up stairs, and Is seritable literary
den, simply furnished, and rich with the odor Of
Russia-leather bindings. The general appear
ance of the house is like that of any other cult-
waited family, and 1t has nothing peculiar or
bizarre about II.
can evening spent in the society OF Mr.. Par
ton and his wife is treat indeed. Both are
good takers, but Fanny Fern is the superior.
Her powers of description are excellent, and
sne taiks Win great cucrky anu uranatic power,
telling Stories in particular, with striking effect.
She has had varied experience, and her remin-
scences OF the past and anecdotes OF the literary
and other celebrities whom she has known are
most interesting. There is a heartiness, also, in
her manner which warns one to her, and the
visitor soon feels quite az home in her company.
Parton talks quietly aud deliberately, but IL at
all interested. he rises into enthusiasm, and at
intervals has flashes OF fine sentiment, expressed
in his happiest way. / have met few persons
whose talk was mores suggestive, or VINO COM
mented more keenly on the events of the day.

JUST FOR FuN.-A singular incident occurred
on the steamer Bristol one evening last week as
she was going through He'll Gate, on her pas
sage from New York. A well-ireesed gentle
man OF about thirty five years OF age was stand
ing with other passengers on the upper DICK.
Hailing a tug-bOat which was close 1t hand, he
inquired Of the captain II he would pick him up
If he should jump overheard. Receiving an
affirmative reply, greatly to the surprise OF the
passengers, who supposed he was Joking he did
jump overheard, going down feet foremost as
skillfully as IL he were the original Sam latch
come to life again. There was much Screaming
and some fainting among the ladies who saw the
feat, and il was long before he came to the sur
face, far in the ofthe vessel that the cooler
ones looking for his temperance feared he had
struck some Of the sunken rocks in the channel
Finally he came up, swan after and picked up
his hat, which was floating away, and was then
taken aboard the tug.

The WALLA WALLA PosToFFICE-Our
neighbors in the northern part of the Territory
complain, and justly, too, of the irregularity
of the mails We take the following from the
Lewiston Journal of August 9th: 5
More evidences of the carelessness of the Walla
Walia Postofice have transpired. amorg which some
of our exchanges came back to this Office that were
sent but two days before. This is the second time
that our "ex' to the Idaho World has come back in
the same bag in which it was sent Other papers
and letters meet the same fate.
We have been, for some time, at loss to
account for the irregularity with which we
have received not only the Journal but the
Walla Walla Statesman. 1t has frequently
been the case that the Statesman would not
come to hand for nearly two weeks, when we
would then receive two different numbers on
the same day, or. one number upon the day
following the receipt of the other. The Jour-
nal has come to hand in almost the same man.
ner, and it has been the case that numbers Of
both papers have failed to reach us altogether.
From our acquaintance with the postmasters
of Idaho City and Boise City, we know the
blame does not lie ate their DOORS If other
Offices were conducted as well there would be
no complaint about the irregularity of the
mails through the negligence or carelessness
OF postmasters. Gsa..

arrested aud held to bail in $1,000, under the
provisions of the Civil Rights bill, for refusing
to shave w. A. Hayne, q member of the Legis-
lature of that State, who is also a negro. This
is one of the ridiculous fruits of Radical legis-

tainly engaged in an important business, and
of vital Importance to the people. when it un-
dertakes to compel one negro to shave another.

UTAH NORTHERN. RAILEOAD.--Ona August
23d, according to the Salt Lake Herald, the
Utah Northern Railroad Company was formal.
ly organized, the requisite amount of stock
subscribed and the requisite amount paid in.
The line will run from Ogden, in Weber coun.y
ty, through Box Elder and Cache counties, to-
Soda Springs; and the surveyors are now at
work locating route 1t is to be q narrow
guage road, about three feet wide, and ar.
rangements, as we understand, have already
been madefor the iron and rolling stock. Itisthe
intention of the company to finish the road to
Logan, in Cache county, and have the ears
running to that point by the first of, December,
and to have it completed to Soda Springs by
August, 1872. The construction of this road
will ultimately lead to the building of the line
down Snake River Valley to connect with the
road running east from the Columbia River;l
and we would not be surprised if, at the next
session of Congress, the Union Pacific Com
paDy should secure a charter for branch road
through Southern Idaho to the Columbia Riv-
er. If that company don't build the road,
they will be- blind to their own interests and
other parties will step in and secure the prize
1t matters very little to US whether we have
a narrow or broad guage road but railroad
of some kind we must have, and the people of
Southern Idaho will, to the extent of their
ability and according to their means, cooper
ate with any company undertaking this, to us.

MORE STEALING.-A secret agent sent out
to Washington Territory by the Treasury De-
partment, has created quite stir among the
Federal officials in Olympia. He discovered
that about sixty thousand dollars of Govern
ment funds had been misappropriated by a
Radical ring at Olympia, of which Governor
Solomon is the head and front. 1t appears
that Salomon and few others in the ring have
been speculating considerably in real estate and
appropriating public funds for that purpose.

annexstiou Of Luxembourg; the
acknowledgment Of William rs the
Emperor OF Germany; the payment
by France Of l zoo, GO, 600 francs; the
raxing of two frontier fortresses; and
the cession of Alsace to Germany.
But II resistance to the German arms
should cease, and the Committee OF
Defense should accept such condi-
tions, the new government could not
feel bound by the acceptance, and
the country would feel stronger, in
the fact Of a government, to refuse
them.
Nothing, therefore, is practicable
but an armistic, which M. Gambetta
was enormously reported to have
wished or even proposed. And then?
Indeed, there is no problem more
Obscure than the future of France,
which is made the subject of a
thoughtful essay by NJ. Emile de
Laveleye in the last F0rtnightiy
Reriew. He is of opinion that the
republic is the best government for
France, but he doubts if the condition
of the people and Of the country
makes it practicable. The mass of
the peasant proprietors in the coun-
try and the bourgeoisie, the "middle
class" in the towns, are afraid Of a
republic, which they associate with
incessant agitation and insecurity.
Then he thinks that when the suf-
frage becomes universal, which Is
the tendency everywhere, the people,
of whom a majority are always poor,
will naturally wish to change by law
the distribution of wealth, and in the
consequent struggle freedom would
perish. But his article shows that
the empire has SO effectually demon
allied the French people that 1t Is
impossible to assume In tnem the
character and heroism which are
to the establishment OF
republic.
But in the recognition Of France
very much more than is now believed
will depend upon the personal as
Of some man or men who
ire both wise and patriotic. At
present there is no man In the coun-
.ry who seems to be real leader.
When such a man appears he will

Salt In Iowa.

A gentleman writing from New
Jersey to the Governor inquiries
whether any reward or bounty has
ever been offered by the State Of
Iowa for the discovery OF salt or sa-
line water in,the State, she Is under
the impression that salt can be pro-
duced here equal to the salt Of New
York, both In quantity md quality.
The State did own some $4,000
acres of saline lands, which were
placed at the disposal Of the State
University. Most Of these lands
have been sold by the Trustees ofthe
University. We are I6f6fmed fkae
no reward has ever been offered for
the discovery or prbd4ctaBa of at
