The Beauties Of Paris.

KEEPING THE TREES AND sHRUBBERIEs IN
ORDER-BOOK-STALLS AND NEWSPAPER
STANDS.
1t costs $4,000 annually to keep the trees.
strawberries, and seats upon the bOulevards
and in the public squares and gardens of Paris
in order. 1t is estimated that the trees i'm the
avenues and boulevardS of Paris number
$40: those in the cemeteries 10, 400, and those
in the squares and cOurtyards of various
buildings. $500. There are also 5000 seats for
the accommodation of the public. The expen-
seS of keeping up all the extra mural recrea-
ton grounds, exclusive OF the Bots de BOu-
logne and the Bots de Nincennes, is rather
ers 2ls2 acres, and in summer 1900 cubic feet
of water per diem are used to lay the dust
while more than 1900 cubic feet are required
To feed the ponds and cascades. The Bots de
Vincennes covers 2St2 acres and consumes
nearly $1,000 cubic feet of water per diem
A sum of $4,000 is paid annually by the pro-
prietors OF restaurants and cafes for the right
of placing chairs and tables upon the pavement
in front Of their establishments, and about half
as much Is paid by the owners of shops for eX-
hibiting their goods outside their windows.
The bOok-stalls which are placed upon the par
apet OF the Seine, and the boOtbiacks and COM
MISSIONARIES contribute to this sum. All the
unoccupied corners Of streets and public build
lngs. where publish always finds its way in
other cliles Pre- utilized, and the municipality
obtains ~ a for permission to erect staIIthere
for the sale OF knicknacs. A much larger rev.
enue Il derived from the kiosks i'm which the
newspapers are sold. and this privilege has
been leased To a company for a term of fifteen
years, which will expire in 1884. The company
pays the municipality a sum of 50 francs for
each kiosk. and has also to bear the cost of
keeping them in repair and lighting them.
There are 3U Of these kiOSkS at the present
time, but the number will shortly be increased
To $50 The municipality has the right of APP
pointing the persons who rent the kiOskS from
the company, and fixing the rent, which varies
from francs To 30 francs a month, according
to the situation of the kiosk. The company
obtains large sum from the advertisements
cut into the glass OF the kiosk windows i'm adj.
dition to the rent paid BY the newsyendOrs. In
ordinary years the public vehicles plying for
| hire in the streets bring in revenue of nearly
! $4,000, and there are loo cab stands, to each
| of which Is attached an inspector appointed by
| the Prefecture of Police.

AMERICAN AND ENGLISH HUMoR.-Prof,

AMERICAN AND ENGLISH HUMOR-ProfeSs0r
Brown, Of Tufts College, lectured on Charles
Dickens as the Dramatic Author and Reader"
at Boston, on Tuesday evening. A newspaper
report Of the lecture says:-"The lecturer, in
closing, made comparison between the hu-
NOR Of Charles Dickens and that OF the Ameri-
can humorist OF to-day. The humOr Of Dick
ems was healthy English humOr, as bright,
fresh and enjoyable to-day as when it was
written the humOr Of the day, on the contra
ry is ephemeral and will be entirely forgotten
long before the humOr Of Charles Dickens
begins to seem tame"
We ask whyg The American humor, which
Professor Brown means, is the humor of our
daily press but il certainly is no more for ito
day" than for the future. The most of 1t is
based on the little farces and comedies of
everyday domestic life; and unless our human
nature radically changes our descendants OF a
thousand years hence may as reasonably be
expected TO laugh over 1t as We do now: Sue
ceSsful American humOr Is not based upon
local gags its base is the interminable
round of human oddities and eccentricities,
and IL is for all time-just as much as Is the
same quality of humor In which our English
cousins induge.-t Cteretcnd Herald.

GLIMPSE OF A CABINET MEETING.-At the
meeting of the HayeSS cabinet there is some
set Formally, not new to the cabinet chamber
but often forgotten by the people. We sit, -
said one member, - in an order carefully OBJ
served. The President has the large chair at
the head of the table. On the right sits Mr.
Eyaris, who Is the leading officer, and in the
cabinet is decidedly the most lOquaciOus OPP
pOsite Evarts, on the Presidents left is Mr..
Sherman. Below Evarts sits McCrary of the
war power. who is opposite Thompson the
Naval Chief, and Key, the Postmaster Gener-
al, whose vis-a-vis is the Attorney General.
DevenS. Carl SchurZ is at the foot of the bile.
furthereSt from the President, because his de-
partment was the latest in time OF its institu-
tiOn. Mr.. Hayes speaks with considerable
p0siliveneSS sometimes. and, more than any
Other Cabinet Minister. walks up and down
the room while talking or forming his judg-
ment. The members push back their chairs
from the table, reclining or sitting at ease. III
Cabinet Minister is absent. The assistant
represents him, and thus it has happened that
Fred Seward and Richard Mccormick have
had the right and left hand of the Presi-
dent. II Washington Letter to Cincinnati

VOTES IN SwITZERLAND.-ln Switzerland.
on recent Sunday, votes were taken through
out the republic on three federal bills, submit
ted for ratification to the entire nation. The
first created tax for exemption from military
ser vice, and its object was to raise revenue by
levying an impOSt on all men incapaciated for,
or exempt from. serving in the army. The
second bill concerned certain political rights
of the Swiss. TOdescribe all the details Of il
would be impossible, but the consequence OF
it was that If the Swiss wish to enjoy the right
of electing their deputies or municipal cOun-
cilOrs they must be wise, full of Intelligence,
economical, successful in business, and not
needy, for poverty was motive for political
incapacity. The third bill, on factory labor,
limited the hours OF employment, and Imposed
salutary limits to the work of women and chill
dren. Among other clauses, the measure re-
CURED the masters to pay the employed at
least once fortnight, and In money. The
bill on the military tax was rejected BY a vote
OF l5S9N to A6.7 the second, relative to
political rights, was refused by lA.4N to
1l3,004 while the third on factory labor, was
adopted by 156, 495 to $4,000

Hese,u ono Orch.rde.

We notice in travelling over the
country, that it is becoming COM
mon thing to fence off the orchard,
with view to making it a perma-
ncnt hog pasture, excepting during
the fall when tho apples are being
gathered.
Many orchards are thus annually
ruined; not because it is wrong to
allow hogs to run in the orchard, but
because too little discretion and iudg.
ment are used in the matter.
The writer has turned hogs in his
orchard for number of years, and
instead of experiencing loss, there
has been positive gain in the way OF
keeping down weeds and in the de.
struction of the codling moth. The
apples dropping in the summer and
early fall are consumed, worms and
all, the result being tho gradual OK.
tinction of the moth. But / fence ur
with the orchard, land sufficient to
give ample pasturage, and every hog
if provided with jewel in the nose
to prevent roofing. If great mum.
Der of hogs are turned into small
orchard-as is too common,-early in
the season, without ringing, the sol
is turned up to a greater or less
depth, and kept bare during our dry
hot summers. The effect upon the
trees will be apparent after a little
thought. The finer roots that come
up near to the surface are the nitro.
gen feeders Of the trees. If these
roots are destroyed by roofing, or
kept from coming near enough so the
surface by its exposed and heated
condition, the trees will not properly
store the cell structure, and will be
surely injured the succeeding winter
In no case allow hogs to root in m
nfiahaga and in ne at fiji nfumbleeMFs abel" e
