How PARIS IS PAINTED. would as.

How PARIS IS PAINTED. 1t would as
tonish some of our old house painters
of Baltimore if they could climb over
the fronts of these tall six and seven
story houses and paint them from roof
to door sill without the use of ladder,
scatfold or other wooden contrivances,
either for themselves or their paint-pots.
One man, without assistance of any
kind, can paint the entire front of those
tall houses i'll two or three days. Di-
rectly opposite our quarters, six-story
building, fronting about eighty feet, is
undergoing complete renovation, and
the painttngo of the entire wall has been
accomplished by two youths, apparent
ly nineteen years of age. They are
each provided with rope about an
inch in dinmeter, extending from the
apex of the roof to the pavement, on
which knots one foot apart are made
throughout its entire length. By
means of an apparatus with straps,
clamps, and hook, to which is appended
board on which they Sit and stirrups
to rest their feet in, which is strapped
to their legs, they move up and down
the rope with great rapidity and appar-
ent ease. They move the clamps from
knot to knot, and without changing the
position of the rope, are enabled to
paint about six feet on either side of
them. Their smallest brushes are stuck
III little loops appended to the seats,
and the paint-pot is suspended by a
smaller rope OF some kind, and is raised
and lowered with ease as they NAV de-
slreit. Long practice has given them
great agility, and they seem to move up
and down, and pirouette and oscillate
along the front with great deal more
ease than if they were on ladders. They
use brushes for most of their painting
nearly double the size of those used in
America, and make rapid progress with
the work. House painting in Paris is a
very extensive business, as periodical
renovation of the houses is rendered
imperative by law, no one being allowed
to disfguce neighborhood by present
ing stained and disfi2ured walls. The
houses being all built of soft, cream
colored sandstone, many of the floor
structures instead of being painted, are
redressed by the stone-cutter, and come
out, after undergoing the process of
scraping and scrubbing, as if fresh from
the quarry. In alludin4 to the amount
of work these men do in day, it should
be understood that they commence at
6 o'clock in the morning ana stop at :

DANGER ISLAND.

Far south in the Indian Ocean writes
q traveler), in the midst of almost eter-
nal surf and spray, rises what is appro-
priately termed Danger Island. OF all
the lonely spots on the globe, whose ex-
istence has been ascertained, this is
probably the most lonely. Once only
has it been known to have been visited
by man. The sea for many hundred
miles rolls and flashes over q shallow
bottoms till, arriving at a certain de-
gree of latitude, the floor of rock alb
ruptly terminates, and the ocean be-
comes in a moment of unfathomable
depth. On the very edge OF this abyss
stands Danger Island, which the least
touch of an earthquake or an unusual
stroke of hurricane may some day top
pie over into the bottomless gulf. The
pillows necessarily fret and foam against
the cliffs of Danger Island, which on
all sides descend sheer into the deep,
SO as to appear from distance perfect
ly inaccessible. ..
A surveying ship, traversing the
ocean i'll all directions for scientific pur-
poses, once approached this wild rock.
After rowing to a considerable distance
along the foot of the precipices, one
gentleman discovered small fssure,
throu-h which he felt confident they
could climb to the summit; and the
boat being pushed quite close to the
rocks. two or three of the most daring
landed, and, after no slight toll and
peril, reached the top. The prospect
which then presented itself was truly
extraordinary. Rendered green as an
emerald by the agency of hidden springs.
the whole surface of the islet was thick
ly strewn with eggs of innumerable
ocean birds, which, rising from the
task of incubation, formed a canopy of
futtering wings overhead. The eggs
were of all colors- white, light choco-
late and cerulean blue, dotted with
crimson or brown, or turquoise, or
black Here and there little bills pro-
truled from the shells; and the moth
ers, though scared away for moment
by the unusual apparition of men, soon
alighted near their young.

WHIT AN OLD MAN Has NOTICED. Il

when they are watched.
l have noticed that silks, broadcloths,
and jewels are often bought with other
peoples money.
l have noticed that whatever is is
right, with Il few exceptions-the left
eye, the left leg, and the left side of q
plum pudding.
l have noticed that the prayer of the
selfish man is, " Forgive us our debts, y
while lie makes everybody who owes
him, pay to the utmost farthing.
I have noticed that he who thinks
every man n rogue is very certain to sec
one when he shaves himself, and he
ought, in mercy to his neighbor, to
surrender the rascal to justice.
have noticed that money is the fools
wisdom, the knave's reputation, the
poor mans desire, the covetous mans
ambition, and the idol of all.
I have noticed that all men speal
well of all mems virtues when they are
dead. and that tombstones are marked
with the epitaphs of the good and viz
tuous. Is there any particular GENE
terry where the bad men are buried?

1sg" Almost every foreigner travelling
in America has admitted that for beauty
of architectural mechanism the dome
of the Capitol at Washington is almost
unsurpassed. A statemen, recently
made concerning this structure shows
that it is one hundred and eight feet
higher than the Washington Monument
in Baltimore, sixty-eight feet higher
than Bunker Hill, and twenty-three
feet higher than the Trinity Church
tower in New York. 1t is vast hollow
sphere Of iron, weighing eight million
pounds--the only considerable dome of
iron in The world. The bronze figure,
America at the summit, weighs
nearly seven tons. The pressure of the
iron dome upon it's piers and pillars is
nearly seven tons to the square foot.

So The PHILADELPHIA Ledoer of t

s- The Philadelphia Ledger of the
18th says: The difficulty experienced
in obtaining currency to pay wages by
large employing parties has induced at
least one party here to resort to the
use of gold. The employees agree to
take the coin at the quoted marked diff
ference between marked checks and due
bills, which is about ten per cent.
This is 80 cents in gold for 81 in checks
and due bills. This is unqestionably a
step towards the resumption of specie
payment, and as the difficulty in the
way of readily obtaining supply of
currency is increased the more gener-
al will resort to the use of coin be-
come.

ARRANGING FLOWERS FOR BOUQUETS.

It is an art, requiring no small degree
of taste and skill, to arrange cut flow
ers so as to form an attractive bouquet
for the vase or basket. 1t is something,
too, which comes to one intuitively,
and it can hardly be described in words.
However, it may be said in general that
the more loosely and unconfned flow
ers are arranged, the better. Crowding
is especially to be avoided, and to ac-
complish this, good base of green of
different varieties is needed to keep the
flowers apart This filling up is very
important part i'll bouquet making, and
the neglect of it is the greatest STUN
| bling block 70 the uninitiatad.
Spikes and dropping flowers, with
branches and sprays of delicate green,
are the absolute necessity in giving
grace and beauty to a vase bouquet.
Flowers of similar size. form and color
ought never to be placed together.
Small flowers should never be massed
together. Large flowers, with green or
branches, may be used to advantage
alone, but a judicious contrast of forms
is most effective.
Avoid anything like formality or stiff
ness. A bright tendril OF spray of vine
can be used with good effect, if allowed
to wander over and around the vase as
it will. Certain flowers assert well
only in families, and are I'M jured by
mixing. OF these are balsams, holly
hooks, sweet peas, etc. The former
produce very pretty effect if placed
upon a shallow oval dish upon a cen
ter-table.
No ornament is so appropriate fol
the dinner table or mantle as u vase OF
flowers: and if YOU expect visitors, by
all means cut the finest bouquet youl
garden will produce, and place it in the
room they are to occupy. 1t will tell
