HOW THE FRENCH ECONOMIES.


The French butcher separates the
bones from his steaks, and places
them where they will do the most
good. The housewife orders Just
enough for each person and no more,
even to the coffee. If a chance visitor
drops in, somebody quietly retires and
the extra cup is provided, but nothing
extra by carelessnessa of intention,
when the little range Is extinguished,
and waits for another time. No roar
ing cook stoves and red hot covers all
day long for no purpose but waste.
The egg laid to-day costs little more
than the one laid last week, Values
are nicely estimated and the smallest
surplus is carefully saved. A thou
sand little economies are practiced, ,and
it is respectable to practice them.-
Cooking is an economical as ;welI as
and gustatory science. A
French cook will make a franc GO as
far as an American housewife will
make three, and how much further
than the American Bridget nobody
knows-we should probably be great
ly. astonished, could the computation
be made, how much of the financial,
powers of France is ow-
ing to her soups and cheap food bet
ter living after all, than the heavy
bread and grassy failure of our culi-
nary ignorance.

LIVE BRAVELY.

The world is half-darkened with croakers
Whose burdens are Weighing them down,
Thew crOak of their stars and i'll usage,
And grope in the ditch for crown.
Why talk to the wind OF thy fortuue,
Or clutch at distinction and gold?
II thou canst not reach high on the ladder,
Thou canst steady its base by thy mold
For the flower, though hid in the corner
Will rs faultlessly finish its bloom,
Will reach for a sparkle of sunshine
That clouds have not CHANGED to consume,
And wouldst thou be less than a ilower-
With thought, and brain, and a hand:
VIII wait for the 6ribbles OF fortune,
When there's something that these may COM
mand?
There is food to he won from the furrow,
And forests that wait to he hewn,
There's marble untouched by the chisel,
Days that break not on the forehead OF June.
Will You let the plow rust in the furrow-
Jnbuilded Il house or Il hall?
Nor bid the stones wake from their silence
And fret rs if frettins were all?
Go learn from the blossoms and ant-hll,
There's something your labor must give;
Like the beacon that picrces the tempest,
Strike the clod from thy footing and live.
Livc-not trail with thy face in the dross heap,
In the track OF the brainess and proud;
Lift the ccremcnts away from thy manhood
Thou'rt robbing the dead OF shroud.
There are words and pens to be welded,
There are thoughts that. would die if unsaid;
Wouldst thou saunter away amid roses,
Or sepulchre dreams that arc dead?
No, drag the hope to the pyre,
Dreams dead from the ashes will rise,
Look not down on the earth tor its shadow,
There Is sunlight for thee III the skies.

REMARKABLE PHENOMENON.
ON the Now Orleans Picayune.

riom Tic NoW OTlcduS TlCaN uHc.
Two miles southwest of Milneburg.
and about half mile from Lake Pont-
chartrain, there occurred on Friday
night most wonderful phenomenon.
The earth for about thirty acres be-
came suddenly depressed, sinking fully
thirty feet, and trees on the margin
tumbled into the chasm. When there,
on Saturday evening, very distinct
rumbling noise could be heard at in
tervals, whilst in the center of the
cave flashes of light sprang up to the
height of fifteen or twenty feet. A
sulphurous odor is SO strong on the
margin of the chasm that it is ap-
preached with difficulty, and is per-
ceptible at the distance of mile from
the spot. Wherefore is this, and what
does it mean? l am a seafarins man
and have recently noticed a change i'll
the Gulf Stream. 1t sets in with a
powerful current through the Chande.
leur Islands, Mississippi Sound, Lake
Borgnc and by the Rigolets into Pont-
chartrain.
Can it be, by some sudden conyul-
sion in the interernal structure of the
Garth, that a vacuum has been created
so near-into which the waters of the
Atlantic are now running--threaten
ing earthquake? The subject is worth
the attention of scientific men better
able than the writer to explain this
very strange phenomenon. to which
merely call attention. JOHN RUGBY.

GOING COUNTING.

One of the chief compensations of
woman's life is found in the fact that
she does not have ''to go ACQUIRING"
1t must be confessed that in these
days the modern belle does her share
of the wooing bnt she does not dress
up in a stiff collar and pair of boots
two sizes too small for her, and march
up to the cannon's mouth of her in
amorata's family-consisting of father
and mother, and grandmothers, and
maiden aunts, and half dozen BROTH
ers and sisters-and inquire, in trem-
bling voice: els Miss ArabelIa at
home ?" Whenever man goes q
courting everybody seems to know all
about it. His demeanor tells the OBJ
servant spectator the business he is In.
tent upon. He might just as well pla-
card himself with the legend, "I go
a-courtingl" Everybody is cognizant
of 1t, and looks knowingly and asks
him, s,Were the northern lights bright
last night about one O'Clock ?v and
"How is the market for kerosene M
at Daddy Brown,sw and a score of
other questions equally out of place.
We have in our family at present a
young man who is deeply-we trust
successfully engaged in going a-court-
ing, and our warmest tsympathies have
been aroused for him. When Sunday
afternoon arrives, it is plain to see
that something is about to happen.
Our young man is fidgety and nom
communicative, and cannot sit in one
place half minute at time. He is
continually interviewing his watch,
and comparing it with the old eight
day, coffin-shaped clock in the corner.
lie looks in the glass frequently, and
draws his forehead-locks first back and
then forward, and combs them, and
pats them down, and is unsatisfed
with the effect throughout. The smell
OF bay rum and bergamont is painful
ly apparent. When he shakes out his
musk is perceptible;
His boots shine like mirrors. There
is faint oder of cardamon seeds on
his breath when he yawns. He
smooths his budding moustache with
pats, and feels invisible
side whiskers constantly, to make sure
that they are still there-a fact which
is not established to outside observers
by the sense of sight. He tries on all
his stock of neckties without finding
just the thing. and he has spasms of
brushing his coat that commences
with violence and at last one grows
nervous for fear the broadcloth will
meyer be able to stand it. He de-
clines soup that day for dinner. He
says 1t is because he doesn't feel hum
cry. We know it is because there are
onions in it-and onions, as every one
do not sweeten ones breath to
any great extent. If spoken 10 on
sudden he starts and bushes, and
looks as guilty as if he had been caught
stealing something; and directly one
1oes not speak to him he goes back to
he delightful occupation of staring at
lething, and waiting for the hour to
creep round to seven. And at seven
he sets forth clean and tidy from top
% toe, looking precisely as if he had
ust stepped out of bandbox.
