briefly reported the cure of q gentleman
of that city-understood to be Mr.: ID.

fever; since that time he has never been
sick. Weight is the same now as at II.
At the age of % he lost his appetite 1oI
breakfast, and has ever since dispensed
with that meal. At the age of 81, OWING

A Chapter from the History Of the
Paris Commune.

| 1t was little after o'clock when the
Council adjourned. At that very mo-
ment the first soldiers of the French
Army were on the point of entering
Paris, thanks to a well known incident,
the principal details of which are not
unworthy of being related. M. Ducat-
ell, formerly u pentonnier, and then Al
years OF age, a veteran soldier and a
man of energy, brave and not without a
love of adventure, was then living near
the gate of Auteuil, in house which the
bombs from Montretout had often WIS.,
tied. Without being initiated into the
negotiations which George Veysset was
carrying on with Dombrowski, he had
noticed a great incoherence in the atti-
tude of the Federals guarding the ram
parts. The posts were sometimes
abandoned during whole day, then
they were remained by an insufficient
force which often went away without
being relieved. M. Ducatel went to
Versailles, bearing passport, allow
ing him to take the St. Denis steam
cars, saw several persons, gave useful
information and even furnished plan
of the Sixteenth District.
He made several journeys with the de-
sign of Fastening the deliverance of
Paris, and when the 2lst of May ar
rived he had already got into relations
with General Felix Douay, Commander
in-chief of the Fourth Corps of the
French army. On the morning of the
2lst M. Ducatel perceived that the whole
zone of fortilications from Auteuil to
the Point-de-Jour was deserted; there
was no one on the military road, or up
on the bastions, or at the posts or in
the taverns. The Federals had dis
appeared! He went out, made the
ground carefully, and discovered a de-
sertion too general not to be systematic
In the course of this long and minute
inspection he met but three or four in
surgents who had taken refuge in
cellar, through the grating of which he

of all the gates, that Of st. Cloud,
battered by the artillery, seemed TO him
the most practicable for a possible
escalade. From house-top he saw that
the advanced guard Of the French Army,
sheltered behind the gabions of a trench,
was not further than sixty yards Off
Perhaps he might succeed in making
himself understood by signs and in-
ducing our soldiers TO enter the desert
ed city. Among the ruins of shelter
ed house he found a long laih, TO which
he fastened white foulard, which he
wore as a scarf. With this he climbed
lPon the crumhling bAsiion and waved
his improvised flag. The fire Of MOntre- I
out was terrible 81 this moment. VI. ]

resolutely entered Paris "by the quays
and the boulevards, which were totally
clear of barbados, with one bound and
without one shot being fired the Com.
mune would have been strangled."
This opinion is not mine only but that
of NJ. Lissagaray, the most serious apollo
gist of the Commune. 1t is perfectly
Correct. A rapid movement, had
it been strategically possible, car
ried out upon the evening of May 2l,
would have enabled the French Army TO
encamp that very night in the Hotel dc
Vile and to have thrown forward its
advanced guard as far as the Place dc
la Bastile. There is not chief OF the
Commune who does not know, though
not one of them has admitted this fact.
However, the gods did not will it so to
be-and Paris was burned!

Management of Chickens,

Many complain of breakage in eggs
by hens whiles under the pro-
cess of incubation. This is owing
partly to the thinness of the shells and
partly to the carelessness of the hen.
OF all sitters, the Brahmas are the most
tractable. They are persistent, and
when once their inclination is directed
towards this point, they are easily re-
moved to some more convenient place.
A nest for sitter should be construct
ed for that purpose, and be on a differ
cut plan from that of the layers. Gen.
orally when layer is seeking nest,
she manifests desire to look up. Her
ideas are high. She looks at the wood
pile, and views well all the localities
about the buildings. Many of the small
er breeds, especially the sitting varie-
ties, have this mania for nest-hunting,
when running at large.
Nests intended for sitters alone should
be made on the ground, thst the hen

Last Saturday night an immense
crowd OF the citizens Of Virginia and
Gold Hill blocked c street in front OF
the International Hotel. The main bal.
eony was allied with prominent citizens
OF Storey county. while the upper bal
cony was graced by the presence Of many
ladies'. The windows and awnings, and
roofs Of the buildings on the opposite
side Of the street were alive with hu-
mainly. The crowd represented no po-
litical party ; IL was in no sense q parti-
