The PAGEANT OF THE MEMpHr.

The scene which this mystic order
presented last night on the grand carni-
val avenue Of Memphis, in point Of ar
tistie conception. thorough study and
exquisite finish of costume and pose for
th- figures on the floats has never been
equaled on this cont nent, and unsur.
passed in Paris or Rome. The genius
which gave hat mastery production to
the enraptured thousands and thousands
Of people, who looked on in almost
brpathless silence, deserves from Mem
phis an ever enduring honor. The man
that brainworked that pageant up is q
born artist though he should lever put
the brush to canvas. That q feature
of the many beautiful ones Of our Mardi
Gras, viii fix the fame Of this city be.
7ond that OF any other in this country,
and make it par excellence the center Of
attraction for all future 0~bservAnces Of
the carnival. Prom such c~elebrations
Of hardi Gras as ours yesterday and
last night, although mixed with gro
tesqusnsas and folly, the public will aoon
come to look for its return as a season
Of artistic grandeur and poetic culture,
%ennObling and full Of refinement, and a
welcome festival Of rest and true enjoy
ment.

that late marriages, a craving for what

New England ladies will suffice to ex.
plain the fact. Far from being a subject

Russians in Paris.

A correspondent writes: 1.-THE Rus.
sian colony is one Of the most important
in Paris. Russians arrive here in troops
They like Paris and the Parisians; they
are more Partisan than any other coun-
try. They speak French az well as the
French themselves, without the slightest
foreign accent, and dress as elegantly az
the most elegant Parisiennes. The
French also like the Russians better than
any other nationality that comes to Paris,
and with some reason; the Russians are
the most generous travellers who overrun
the world. The English may have been
generous once, but now they are the
meanest Of tourists who swarm the Con-
tinent. All they seem to think of is how
many miles they al go over at the least
possible expense. Americans are better
than the English-but aver they travel
second.class, and barter about the
charges of a bedroom"
