Tho French Emprers and her Husband as Nov
eligfa.

M. Feuillet is an aristocrat In litera-
ture, and eschews the man in blouse.
who appears as little as possible In his
novels and plays. In the "Histoire de
Sibylle" the work is aristocratic and
pious, In the "Roman Pun jeune homne
pauvre' it Is aristocratic and moral. He
has always basked in the genial rays OF
aristocratic favor; he stood near the
throne under the second empire. He
was the favorite author Of the Empress
Engenie, who is supposed to have in
spired him with the idea OF the ISL
bylle;" that is, asked him to write q
novel from the Roman Catholic point Of
view. The slender intellectual gifts Of
this amiable and feryent Christian
could not have more than made the
vague suggestion; aud when the novel
was finished the same mental defcien-
cies led her to believe that 1t was the
chef d'euvre Of the age. She has lher
qualities, but the. critical faculty in lit
erature 10 not one Of them. 1t may be
observed, in this connection, as an Incl
dent attesting thereto, that when the
Tuileries was invaded by the red de-
mocracy, an unfinished novel was found
at which the Empress and her husband
had been trying their hands, and which
hardly rose to the level Of mediocrity.-

n Hnlimt Hilla omnihuses.

The Walnut Hills omnibuses. both East and
West, stopped running this morning for some
unaccountable reason without giving any
warning whatever to the public, taking even
some Of their employees unawares. The keeper
of the office on Sycamore and Fifth streets was
as much surprised as the public this morning
when he reported for duty at the Office and
found the 'busses had been withdrawn and the
Office closed.
The rullior was immediately set afioat that
the Street Car Company had bought Mr.. Baker
out, but this, we learn from the directors them
selves, is without shadow Of truth, as they
simply bought fifteen of Mr.. Bakers horses,
and that several days ago Mr. Baker having
told them Of his own accord that he intended
to stop his 'busses, as he was not making any
money, but he did not say when he was going
to put this in execution. nor what he intended
to do with his 'busses.
