plague! Transport your cemeteries into

ney to Enghein or Fontainebleau or st.
Mauer each time that he wished to stand
by the grave, Of the lost, would seem ter
erible trial. Toward the end of the last
century there was pestilence because of
the overcrowded condition of the GENE
teries, and it was at that time that the IA
nous corridors Of human bones, which so
many tourist have seen in the Paris Cat
acombs, were constructed with the remains
taken from the grave yards. The city is
dotted all over with the sites of ancient
small cemeteries, now almost forgotten.
Indeed, one may be said to walk over the
dead every day. Rabelais was buried
where the Church Of ST Paul now stands
the St. Joseph Market house covers the
grave of Moliere; and few years since
the burial place of the great Cardinal Du-
bois was found in the filthy gutter of a
dark cellar. Thus death turks in the
midst of life.

A Colored ,Skeptic.

When schools were estaplished in the
South for the education of the negro, they
were eagerly patronized by the colored
folks of all ages Coy maidens of thirty
and bashful lads equally old gayly trudg-
ed to school with diminutive primers in
their hands, while the small fry swarmed
tn the school-houses, and were enthusiast
tic on the education question. OF Pete,
the subject of our anecdote, it might be
truly written that "ne'er did pencil trace
whittier eye or blacker face. " His form
er master, DR.. H, had taken great pains
with him, instructing him daily in read
ing and writing. In the fall Pete was to
go to school, and anxiously looked for
ward to it. This was in 1869, when the
sun was in total eclipse in August. There
were all sorts of rumors among the color
ed people about calamities which would
happen at the time of this phenomenon.
A few days before it occurred the follow
ing conversation took place between Pete
and friend:
'Pete, did you know dar was gwine to
be 'clipse OBJ de sun next week3'
eyes," said Pete, ',Iheard de folks talk
in bout it,"
aPete, hear dat awful things is gwine
to happen when it comes. Dey say dat
de world is gwine to come to an end"
Curling his lips in scorn, and fixing his
big white eyes on him, Pete answered,
with contempt, $50 way, niggah. Don't
you know dat school opens in Sspten,.
Der? How, den, can de world come to an
end in August?"- Drawer, in

A Cold Day in London.

A terrible day for the poor coster-
mongcr and stall-keepers of Whitecross
street. The fshwoman who Yesterday
stigmatized the weather as beastly, be-
cause 1t drenched her shawl and compell-
ed her to stand In puddle, could not,
unless she sent home for kettle of hot
water and thawed the stubborn ice in the
kennel, find puddle to stand in, though
she walked mile in search of it and her
life depended on it. A day so bitinglv,
bitterly cold that the very turnips
and carrots set out in penny lots on the
bleak boards looked nipped up and
frost-bitten, and would be grateful to
any one who would take them home and
pop them into comforting pot OF hot
soup. Gin fails, this morning, to be at
what is desired by the miserable women
who indulge in it at the bars of the
Whltecross street gin shops. There does
not seem to be warmth enough in the
fiery liquid to set free the slatternly
dram drinkers powers of speech, or to
alter the leaden hue of their lips. The
mae loaters at the beer shops find no
comfort in pewter measures perhaps it
is because their pockets are frozen out
and loiter by the lamp-posts, asking each
other in dismayed voice how /" long this
ere is a-gon' to last" as they stamp their
feat and blow on their knuckles for
warmth's sake. The sudden frost seems
to have paralyzed this nelghbor-hood of
squalor, and everybody is half benumbed
and wretched looking the child
rem. Here they come in troop-Billy
of yesterday and his young friends
among the number, and though the shoes
aud boots of the whole party, on account
of their ramshackle, would not, if all
sold to an old Jew realize enough money
to buy a new pair, the Dervish dance
they performed yesterday was quite a
lame performance to what they are equal
to this morning. Their jackets and frocks
are miserably thin (for there are little
girls as we'll as boys,) and futter in the
wind, and in many cases the tiny latter
demlions have neither hat nor cap, and
their hair is prematurely gray with snow
that lodges in it. But they don't seem
to mind It bit. Mind it!TLey rejoice
and revel in it, and laugh out loud,
though their noses are blue, and the
breath puffs out as white steam when
they open their mouths.-London Society.

The ebay Of the Dead.''

Edward King writes to the Boston
journal as follows regarding the observ-
ance Of this day by the French: As fol
the day of the dead, it is the most touch
ing and tender observance in France; all
classes of population go to the cemeteries,
and crown the tombs of their lost with
wreaths and immortelles and with more
perishable blossoms. The custom is un-
iversal in this country, and in some sec
tons the peasants have very curious cere-
monials in connection with the anniver-
sary. In the departments of Brittany
and the Maine, the peasants during the
night after All Saints, run through the
fields bearing fire brands, the charred
pieces of which they carefully preserve
as charms against any ills that may be-
fall cattle or stock. In the neighborhood
OF Toulouse, until within few years, on
the evening preceding the second of No
vember there were professions in the Gem
eteries toward the small hours. The cler-
gy conducted sombre array of maskers
and of trembling men and women, who
carried long tapers in their hands, and
fancied that they saw ghosts at every
turn. On such occasions the Dies Iry
and the burial services were always chan
ted. In Paris the tombs of the illustri-
Gus dead are literally buried under flow
ers. Every year some Americans cover
the grave of Lafayette with rare blossoms.
To the American accustomed now and
then to wander through the grassy glades

at home, there is but little that is attract

can help being touched by the beautiful
memorial service here. It becomes year

have been dug over, and over, until med
