Our London and Paris Cable Letters
We must all condole with the Due d'Au-
diffret-Pasquier in his desolation at the
sight of his grave and reverend Senators run
ming off to the Assembly Chamber and leav-
ing him alone in his glory. Doubtless he
feels as the fashionable lecturer felt In q
Western town when his audience suddenly
rose in the middle of his most affecting
sentence and ran to a fire. Over the inward
struggles of such men to confine themselves
to the language of propriety we draw veil.
The Dues expression of his modification
may, however, be recommended to our
American statesmen-Zach Chandler, for
instanoe-as q model of self-restraint under
irritating circumstances. Herr Wagner
to hear of rise in the price OF brass,
such is the impending destruction to wind
instruments. While, however, England re-
ceives the magician of Baireuth with open
arms it seems very pitiful thing to learn
that Partisan manager has to take political
questions into consideration when he is
asked to produce an opera by Wagner. II
the French painters were to give mp
Prussian blue or French smokers to
forswear German meerschaum it would
be just as sensible as French fiddler going
into spasms at Wagner's music like mad
dog at the sight of water. 1t argues that
something is wrong with the dog when
water has this effect. We are gravely
informed from Paris that Adelina Patti is
not coming to America, whatever the Vienna
papers may say. 1t is something to be q
Gear or Patti, for then ones move
ments become q matter of international i'm
portance. Patti, it appears, like Sir Boyle
Roachs bird, cannot be heard in New York
and sing in London but then there was
no telephone in Sir Boyles time, or his
bird might have whetted his benk in
one place and his vocalization be
heard in another. II we cannot have
Patti we are, however, to get Irving-a
substitution not one man in hundred
would care to be enthusiastic over. While
Paris is troubled about ultramontane in
trigues the French pilgrims are happy in
the receipt Of the Papal blessing. In this
connection the delay in the arrival of the
City of Brussels with her cargo Of Canadian
pilgrims, may be mention ed-not, we hope,
with alarm. Among the pilgrims, however,
is gallant American soldier and
man of science, and we have no doubt that
the powers Of evil will keep strictly away
from the vessel bearing the man who
blew up He'll Gate. What London is doing
in the cause Of art and science and what
sprightly or CHASTITY gossip Paris affords may
be gathered from our interesting budget of
cable iottings.

Johnston from entering the Territory, at
what might have seemed to another man a
most dismal moment of his career. The
President issued an order which, while it
obliged US to burn forage in advance, set
fire to the grass at night, carry off animals
and do various other things to hold back
the enemy, absolutely forbade single man
to shed drop of blood"
Anybody can see that Young could not
afford to 60 to war with the United States ;
he dared not order an attack on the troops,
but on the Arkansas emigrants, their allies,
as Wells says they were believed to be-
that was another thing In short, Wells
and Young together seem to us to have
made some very damaging admissions to
our correspondent. We trust the investi-
cation Of the massacre will continue.
Young himself processes that to murder is
against the Mormon religion. Very we'll; if
he is innocent Of this murder he will not
object to full investigation. The arming
and drilling Of Mormon militia look suspi-
cious. Nobody here intends any injustice
to the Mormon leaders. Is it justice they
fear?

LookinC Out for tho Water supply.
full at the present time, almost to the ex-
tent of their capacity. Nevertheless atten-
ton is called, in an article published else
where in to-day's HERALD, to the necessity
of careful economy in the use Of water, as
the consumption has now about reached its
highest point. The fountains and drink
ing hydrants have been set running the
street sprinkling has commenced, and it is
to be hoped will be increased, and besides
the warmer weather calls for the more lib
eral use of water in numerous other direc-
tions. Hence reckless waste may produce
riencod during last summers drought. The
application ofmeters at railroad and omnibus
stables, recently ordered by the department,
will do something toward economizing the
supply; but there are numerous other leak
ages which ought to be stopped and will be
stopped if the department does it's full duty.
1t is said that the contract system by which
q private individual has been authorized to
Supply the docks and shipping with water
on payment by him of a lump sum to the
Croton treasury has been productive of
much waste ard other abuses. AS the con-
tract ends in June the department should
be able to work reform in that direction.
There is still great and just complaint Of
the insuffciency of the force of water in the
upper part Of the city, where it scarcely rises
to the second stories of dwellings. Applica-
ton has beon made for authority to build
additional high service works at Tenth
avenue, near Ninety-eighth street, and if
this will give a sufficient supply the inn
provement ought to be sanctioned without
delay.

EDITOR OBsERvER-A copy
Iof the OBSERVER of the 9Th III
slant, containing an account
'ofthe sale OF the Ulccby Grange
Rams, copied from an English
paper, HIS been received by me
with the article marked. The
yield in wool from enc OF those
rams, 30a pounds, to the casual
observer, Is enormous. but If
one would reflect a moment and
see an achat this large yield con-
sists they will not be so much
astonished. Evidcntly,thc sheep
sold were OF the Mcrino breed,
and had been kept on high rich
feed, (fat sheep make fat aoooD.
All these extraordinary yields
are reported from that breed,
and are accounted for by the
great amount Of yolk in the
wool, and gum necessarily Sc
creted. The wool Of some me-
rinos, from the loss of yolk and
gum in washing, lose as much as
66S per cent, which in this in
stance would lose nearly 20
pounds 6 ounces, leaving only
a little over 10 pounds washed
wool, which is not an extraor-
ordinary yield. A cotswol,i in
ordinary eepyiclding 10 pounds
unwaslied wool, will yield as
much or more washed wool, than
the gummy mcrino yielding
double the quantity Of un-
washed wool. The cotswold be-
ing comparative free from yolk
or gum, lose only from 25 10 33
per cent. in washing. These are
simple facts that it is not amiss
for the farmers to understand.
Very truly,
Tom CRUTCHFIELD.

The reports from abroad pre-
sent very little difference in the
Eastern war. The fighting is Sc
we're, and the results very dana-
ging TO both parties, so far as siiey
concern the lives of men and the
destrnction of property. Russians
still gain upon their opponents, and
bid fair rs ever to wear them down
in the end. The report is now
that Sereia is again msrshaiing
her forces in view Of aiding RUS
STA. That, however, is weak
province that can hardly bring IN
hundred thousand men into the
field, including her entire militia /;
yet she can do something. and in
great wars as well a. in other
things the old proverb. "svery lit
tie helps" holds good. The Monte
negrlns are again in the strife,
not so much perhaps for Russia as
for themselves. Still the Turkish
forces employed against them di
vides the general force and tends
TO Russla's advantage.
Toward the close of last week
the reports were that the French
President would likely pursue n
conservative policy, and thus pre-
vent what otherwise might be a
very serious outbreak. Political
excitement, however, was very
great. and at this distance it is
Impossible TO say what nay or
