The reinstatement of Mai. Runkle of
the army, and Surgeon Draper of the
navy, who were both convicted by court
martial years ago, and forced to leave
the Sci vice in consequence, has revived
the hopes of FitZ John Porter and his
friends, and Il determined effort is to
be made to have his case reopened.
Similar efforts have been made under
former administrations, and an especi-
ally vigorous one while Grant was
president, but without success. Apro-
pos of this the Providence journal tells
the following story: "A few wears ago
the comrades of the LIST Maine cavalry.
a regiment which has a record second
to none in the grand old Army of the
Patomac, and a regiment which served
all through the campaign of General
Pope, held a reunion at Portland, Me.
When the comrades assembled they
found some documents there awaiting
their approval, the purport of winch
was to ask that the case of Fitz John
Porter be reopened. There was at first
"a disposition to agree to this. After
some talk pro and con. il comrade

Getting the Picture Taken

The San Francisco Mail prints the
following: "The principal social event
of the week (which TRANSFERRED in the
daytime) was the photographing of Mr..
Pluto Krat's mansion on jackson
street, near Van Ness enu 1t was
generally known in the neighborhood
that the event was to come off, and u
large of trends meandered
round the block in order to try and get
n cheap likeness of themselves. Special
policemen were detailed ut SO a head to
ward off the attacks of the intrusive
multitude, but, in spite of their efforts,
a bakers boy,a school teacher, n clergy
mans wife, and n blurred-lOoking dog
got into the picture. The lady of the
house stood for seven minutes at the
parlor bow window with a fan in her
right hand and a piece of music in her
left, while her husband pretended to be
patting a dog just outside the front
door. 1t was Il little unpleasant for
the three marriageable daughters to be
compelled to form n group and do Il
tableau vivant at the gate, but with
time their remembrance of the smith
girls ~sneering ut them next door will
fade. The baby in the garden refused
to keep still, and consequently appeared
in the proof with three heads and seven
sticks of candy, while the frantic en-
deavors of his nurse to keep him still
caused that baby's guardian to he dis
tinguished by II mouth in duplicate.
The remaining features of the picture
are Master Adolphus standing on one
leg with his arms folded, and a Dutch
servant girl in AN open window ON the
mansard roof. In this country wealth
and taste are synonymous terms.

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Nothing but a good life a fit men
for a better one.
Money is well spent in purchasing
tranquility of mind.
Incidence is the rust of the mind and
the inlet of every vice.
Wrong none by doing injuries, or
emitting the benefits that are your
duty.
Life becomes useless and insipid
when we have no longer either friends
or enemies.
The intellect of a truly wise man
is like a glass-it admits the light of
heaven, and reflects it.
BE always at leisure TO do good; new
er make business an eXcuse to decline
offices of humanity.
He who is pulled up with the first
gale of prosperity, will bend beneath
the first blast of adversely.
An able man shows his spirit by gen.
tie words and resolutp actions; lie is
neither hot nor timid.
Cities force growth and make men
laxative and entertaining, but they al
so make them artificial.
Friendship is the medicine for all
misfortunes, but ingratitude dries up
the fountain of all goodness.
Make no more vows TO perform this
or that; it shows no great strength, and
makes thee ride behind thyself.
Mar wastes his mornings in antici-
pating his afternoons, and waists his
afternoons in regretting his mornings.
The incapacity of men to understand
each other is n of the principal causes
of their i'll temper toward each other.
Never plead guilty to poverty. So
far as this world is concerned, you
might better admit that you are Il vii.

With love, the heart becomes II fair
and fertile garden, glowing with sun
shine and warm hues, and exhaling
sweet Odors.
We have seen IA prudent, industrious
wife retrieve the fortunes of u family
when her husband pulled at the other
end of the rope.
The chief properties of wisdom are TO
be mindful of things past, careful of
things present, and pruvident of things
to come.
When Il smiles at an a%ffront,
one of two things is certain. She has
either lost all modesty or she is assured
of her revenge.
If IA man be gracious and courteous

a continent that joins them.
There are few men who, were they
sure of death on their SEVENTEEN birth
day, would think of preparation. To-
morrow may be the gate of eternity,
and they go ON i'll their folly.
True joy is a serene and sober emo
ton; and they are miseraDly out that
take laughing for rejoicing; the SEAT of

uess like the resolution of Il brave mind.
The pleasures OF this world are de
ceitfui; they promise more than they
give. They trouble us in seeking them
they do not satisfy as when possessing,
them, and they make us despair in los

A good conscience is better than two

A Powerful Foe.

Domesticated horses have no real
knowledge of their own strength and
power, fortunately for man. With wild
horses it is different. In the steppes of
Russia it is not rare to see two-year
old colt rush singly to attack band of
four or FIVE wolves, kill one or two of
of them, lame the rest, and spread the
terror of his name throughout the
country. The wild horse strikes with
his fore feet like the stag, and not with
his hind legs, as it Is popularity be-
lleved. He draws himself up to his
full height against his enemy, and
pounds him beneath his murderous
pestles; then seizes him between the
shoulders with his formidable incisors
and tosses him to his mates, to make
sport for themselves and their Off
springs.

we'd, and all was in readiness. Sara
stood alone in her dressing room. Hel
eyes shOne brightly, and her cheek,
burned with excitement.
A low knock at the door, and Dora
entered. In one hand she had a jewel
box, and with the other she lifted Sara 's
small white hand, and on her third
finger she placed a brilliant solitaire
ring
"There, darling is my presentto you
wear it through the ceremony for my
sake"
but thought" said the blushing
girl, sit was the custom for the"
"Hush thought never did any good, "
interrupted Dora, saucily. Conceal
your left hand from Henry when he
comes for you, and only allow him to
see your right when he is ready to slip
the wedding ring over this"
"What a curious custom !" exclaimed
Sara; but she did as she was told and
asked no further questions.
The ceremony commenced, but when
Henry lifted her left hand, he dropped
it in dismay. He turned pale, the hot
blush rushed to his head, and in low
tones he exclaimed:
"You wear wedding ring"
"No, no." she stanmered, it is a gift
from Dora. She said it was the custom
to wear"
"Hnsh," and he silently slipped the
ring from her finger and slipped it in
his vest pocket.
When the ceremony had concluded the
bridal pair left the house on their tour.

Dora enjoyed her little revenge. and
she now finds devoted husband in
Warren Wells.
Every once, and a while Sara re-
minds Henry of Dora's strategy, and as
he lovingly embraces his wife, he
thinks of his surprise when he saw the
solitaire on his darling's finger.

Living In Paris.

The houses In the Avenues de Vincen-
mes, st. Maude, and St. Maur are cheer
full places, with gardens before and
behind. The tenants are chiefly retired
officers, government officials, and small
annuitants; and If these abOdes are not
sumptuous they are pleasant and clean /;
one may find here, for five dollars a
week set of furnished apartments
comprising four or five rooms, spacious
and comfortable, and affording the
additional advantage of gardens as
above said. In some of these houses
pension, that is board, can be had at the
rate of about five frances or one dollar
day for three meals. Train cars pass
along the avenues every five minutes,
and take one to any point within the
fortificatiOns for thirty centimes; and
and there is also the circuit railway,
which has stations at Vincennes, Bel.
Air, and st. Eaude, and run trains
to the exhibition every quarter Of an
hour for most moderate fares-75 cents
for first class; 80 cents, second class;
and 30 cents, third class. OF course the
BOis de Vincennes district is not stocked
with casinos and music. halls as the
Champs. Elysees are, nor do brilliant
equipages flash about there nor are there
many of the inhabitants who speak
English. However, there will be race
meeting at Vincennes during the
summer, the Plateau de st. Maur is en-
livensd with frequent reviews of troops
belonging to the Vincennes garrison,
and that the Marne, which is within
easy reach, affords capital fishing and
bathing.
The Luxembourg quarter would be
found more alluring to families possess
ing younger members of studious
turn; for here are the schools of law
and medicine, the Palace of justice, and
several museums and public libraries.
To all these places admission can be OBJ
tanned without any fOrmality. The
lectures of the university professors,
though nOminally delivered for the
benefit of registered students only, are
open to all cOmers; for no matriculation
cards have to be exhibited at the door,
aud indeed the lecturers are rather
pleased TO see foreigners come and hear
them. Furnished lodgings overlooking
the Luxembourg gardens are not
difficult to find, and in some of the old
streets near the Pantheon or the School
of Medicine, one may occasionally light
upon surprisingly ancient and magni-
icent houses, once prlncely mansions,
but now let out in flats. Here the lover
of the aesthetic will find himself at
home. Old Paris has been fast disap
pearing amid latter day improvements,
but there are more vestiges of it than
one might suppose; and some of these
are not likely to crumble away for
many generation to come. The
patient searcher can find them for him
self without guide book and an after
moons walk among the crooked
thOrOughfares of that grand old quarter
round the palace which Marie de Medici
built, and where the Partisan municipal
council now holds its sittings, will well
reward the trouble it involves.
