PARIS. Nov. 12.-The Moniteur publishes
the following:
1t is said President MacMahon has declared
that he had only to give sign and the Bona

the elements necessary for forming vigorous
ministry, but he did not intend to govern by
that means ard he would not become an ac-
complice of underhand intrigues. He meant to
select ministry from the constitutional
groups and if this conciliatory attempt failed
he would resign. President MacMahon has
not opened negotiations for the formation of

or professional man, good rest after
dinner leaves the man in q better cOndi-
ton for hard labor than even in the mSrn-
ing. II was q sensible farmer who, in
harvest, always made an agreement with
his wOrkmen to work ton hours day
and from twelve o'clock to two O'Clock nc
work was done unless in case Of emer-
gency, q threatened rain, or something
that required extra exertion. The men
had glorious times sleeping under trees
after dinner. They always used up three
quarters of an hour at the table, and then
slept one hour and quarter during the
heat of the day. The result was, they
were never 0verworked, and the farmer
got more labor from his men than did any
Of his neighbors from theirs, though thcil
men often worked twelve hours q day
When two O'Clock came the hands were II
good trim, completely rested, and could
do double the work, with more ease thar
If they had commenced work at one
O'Clock. A single hours rest at the proper
time works wonders.-Rurdl NeU Yorker
