Strange Scene in a Theater.

A strange scene lately took place at the
Russian theater, at Odessa. While the per-
formance was going on it had begun to rain,
and the roof of the house must have beer
sadly in want of repair, for the rain pene-
trated on the stage. The actors, jumping
about and using all their gymnastic skill to
avoid the ponds and rivulet5 gradually form
ing on the stage, had at last to
proceed to the parterre. But the perform
ance must be continued, was the I'M
perative order of the director, and to heiphten
the misfortune, in the scene now to be,
played. the actors had to glide in socks over
the stage. The prima donna and the first
lover refused to do this and appealed to the
medical man of the theater. The Solomon
decided that they might act, but only in felt
slippers, for otherwise they would expose
themselves to q severe cold. New slippers
accordingly were brought. Happily there,
was no use for them, for the audience, con-
vulsed with laughter, had left the theater.

Victor Hugo has taken his stand in favor of
woman's rights. In recent letter to the
French Society of the Amelioration of the
Position Of Woman, he said that all the
efforts of his life had been to secure q better
lot for women, and added: MAN has been
the problem of the eighteenth century,
woman is the problem Of the nineteenth; and
to say woman is to say child, that is to say the
future. The question thus put appears in all
its gravity. It is in its solution that lies the
supreme social appeasal Woman can do all
for man-nothing for herself.
"The laws are imprudent to make her so
feeble when she is so powerful Let us re-
cognize that feebleness and protect it; let us
recognize that power and direct it. There
lies the duty of man. there lies also his interest
do not tire Of saying the problem is put; it
must be solved. Whoever bears part of the
burden ought to have part of the privileges.
Half of the human race is outside equally; it
must be made to re-enter. 1t will be one of
the great glories of our great century to give
the right Of the woman as q counterbalance
to the rights Of the man-that is to say, to
put the laws in equilibrium with the customs

THE RESIGNATION OF WILLIAMS.

We extract the following from the New
York Herqlrs leading editorial Of the $50
Inst:
A statement telegraphed yesterday from
| Washington. that Mr.. Williams resigns II
order to return to Oregon and enter INTO toe
contest for the United States SenatorsnlP, II
rid :culous. The first vacancy occurs N
March, 1877. by the expiration OF the term OF
Mr. James X. Kelly, the Democratic Senator,
and resignation fifteen months hence would
do as well as a resignation now' II that were
| the object.
Besides, Oregon has become decidedly
Democratic State, and, on the maxim that a
bird 10 the hand is worth two in the bush, Mr..
Williams would do better to hold on to the
Office he has rather than look to the improba-
BILE chances of Republican Legislature in
Oregon next year. No matter low cleverly it
may Le smoothed over, Mr. Williams's resigna-
ton has been extorted from him by political
necessities
Had che Connecticut election been a victory
instead. of defeat this partial breakup Of the
Grant Cabinet would not have taken place.
1t results from an imperative necessity OF
doing something to retrieve the sinking for
tunes Of the Republican party.
williams has been more conspicuous than
Delano as Cabinet officer by his connection
with the Louisiana controversy, which has
been damaging to the administration. In
stead of saving the President from lis stu
peEdous blSnder in the first month o. 1873,
as 9 sound kwyer would have DONE. Re found
pretanded lGws to match the Presidents
known wishes, and led his official chief into
one Of the wc<st blunders of his adnin;stra-
ton.
The President condoned that Get Of folly by
nominating Mr. Williams as Chief Justice,
but the country has not forgiven It and never
will But WIllias2s's removal, under the color
of q resignation, does not result from his bad
advice on the Louisiana question. It is q con-
sequence Of his profuse and corrupt expendi-
ture of money in the Southern States under q
pre.ence Of carrying out the Enforcement
laws.
This part of the Attorney Generals con-
duct will not bear inv astigation, and the Pres |
ident thinks it better to get rid of thu officer
than to face the record. BY putting out Viii
liams and substituting an honest capable
man, he hopes to win the same indulgent
judgment which he's followed the replacing
of Creswell by Jewell and Richardson by
Bristow. It remains to be seen whether this
game can be played with success.
Postmaster General Jewalfs recent ex-
posures proved that the President blundered
in retaining Creswell SO long and Secretary
Bristow's policy involves a similar condemna-
lion of Richardson and Boutwell,. The Presi-
lent cannot recover the good opinion of the
country by making removals which are q con-
ession of his past blindness aud neglect Of
luty.

French Skill and Industry.

Ex-Secretary Hugh McCulloch. in his Sec
ond letter on the finances of France, says:
1. The French are not only an economical
and boarding people, but they are exception
ally industrious. In the manufacturing as
we'll as in the agricultural districts, all the
members of the families of the industrial
classes, young and old, have some employ
ment by which money is earned. Their sep.
arate earnings may be small, but all con-
tribute something to the common fund, SO
that the end Of the year finds the family re-
serve larger than it was at the beginning.
2 They are eminently skillful and tasteful.
The raw materials, which are the basis of ar
t'cles OF taste and elegance. acquire in the
hands OF French artisans, greater value than
in the hands of the artisans of any other
nation. The manufactures of France are
varied ana extensive, and being uninterrupted
by ''strikes, her capacity to produce seems
to be almost unlimited. French goods are
found among all nations, and there ia a con.
stantly increasing demand for them at remu-
nerative prices. In everything appertainipc
to personal adornment. France Ieads the
world. The palm may be yielded RELUCTANTLY.
hut all nations do admit the super;or;tv of
French taste and Of French manufactnras ~
all matters Of dress.
IL should like to see." says "HH.,"i
her charming Bits OF Travel" ~ should
to see the woman who could 60 through Paris
without buying q new gown" 1t would b
difficult to find tasteful woman anywhere
who does not approve Of the latest style from
Paris. The tribute which other nations pay
to the ingenuity Of French artisans and
artists in the manufacture of dress goods,
and the making up Of dresses is exceedingly
large. Even in England, SO different in the
character Of her people, not only has French
cookery superseded the English, but French
taste in everything appertaining to wearing
apparel is the standard Of fashion.
