more than ordinary pleasure that he was
present to deliver an address. Eight years
previous he had spoken in Mechanics hall in
favor of Geo. b. Mcclellan, and it was gratifying
TO him to again speak in Worcester. He was
present for the purpose of having a straightfor-

say one word against those who were opposed
him in politics. He considered that the

searched at the police office he was found to
have several watches and articles of iewelry
about him.

editor of the visitors list, who has,
doubtless, long had Spa water on the
brain, brought on by his futile attempts
to master the name Of our countrymen.
There is nothing to do at Spa, except
drink the waters, bathe in the waters,
visit the watersin the environs, suffer
from the waters, and--gamble.
The gambling is to be suppressed this
year, but in q large suite of rooms it
still goes on. Every one goes, every
one CANDLES, every one loses, every one
is disgusted and surprised, and every
one goes again, CANDLES and de capo. |
have never yet been into that room with
out being taken aside by some friend
and told how to win infallibly. And it
is always thus. You invent your sys-
tenn, that is the great secret; every one
has their own system-their own secret
they will tell it to you for nothing, and
then all is simple. You put down five
francs, you lose; you double it, you lose
again; you put down 20--you put down
40 or i00-you lose; you double every
thing; you lose again But if you can
only go on doubling everything, and
doubling up everybody, you must win
q mathematical certainty, sir; no chance
about it. But suppose you lose all your
money, and cannot go on to the winning
post? Ali then, VOLTA you must bor-
row. And, if no one will lend2 Ali
c. est celia and this conversation goes
on grayely night after night in yonder
crowded and glittering saloons And as
sober gray-headed men pass you, you
hear them mutter, " know shall lose =
and women, I'm always unlucky ="
and the old men. "The luck must soon
turn; and boys, Do lend me couple
of francsln And so it goes round
merrily. Only sometimes woman
breathes hard as she. leans over the
table and stakes her lovers last " LOUIS
dor" and sometimes a man turns
pale and falls away from the crowd round
the green table, while the silly moths
rush on to burn their wings and flutter
and drop. Last night met man sober
and yet staggering downth stairs. He
had lost every farthing he had in the
world, and finished by not unnaturally
losing his head. At this point he was
carried away by his feelings-and two
policemen. But the police are not
wanted here. There are piekpockets,
but no one ever catches them. They
must live as we'll as others--as well, for
instance, as the hotel-keepers, with
whom they have SO many points in COM
mon. AS far as could see, the peace
of the whole place was adequately kept
by one policeman during the daytime.
He walked up and down with sinister
smile. He had only one arm-the left
one-his swerd being slung on the same
side, Of course he could never draw it.
He also wore spurs, and was in every
other respect master of the situation.
ButI had forgotten the baths. Fancy
yourself immersed in hot soda.water.
The carbonic acid bubbles up all round
you, and fizzes and spits above the sur
face of the water--the effect is most de-
lightful-seltzer water everywhere, and
none to drink. The waters are not so
nasty to drink here as many others--as
the Pyrenean Springs, for instance.
