American mode of living, and lux
uriate in griddle cakes, mullins,
hot rolls and buckwheat cakes, all
of which a Partisan would regard
as poison. They exercise the hor-
riblc French patties, roast and stuff
their chickens instead of broiling
or frying them, serve up their salad
without oil, and let those who love
oil oil it; they eat their peas and
beans and potatoes with their meat,
and mix things generally, just as
they did at home. They know ex-
actly what they are eating, and no
longer shut their eyes and swallow
whatever is given them, without
knowing very often whether it is
fish, flesh or fowl. When an Amer
ican gets under his own root he is
always happy in Paris, and the la

it. In short, he maintained that an
income of $4,000 per annum would
enable man here TO keep his fam
lily in as good a position in polite
society as could be done at a cost of
$4,000 in New York /; that there

will continue to puff his cigar in
his presence, in absolute innocence
Of any breach Of courtesy; and in
the indigenous school, children,
even in class, only lay aside their
cigars while their lungs are
occupied with bawling out the
trite texts Of tho spelling
book. A pipe is rarely seen,
but cigars and cigarettes are
universal, and their manufacture
and sale form one of the common
est employments of the women.
Some exceedingly fine tobacco is
grown in parts of the province, no
tably in Arakan, but the cultivation
is very limited, and the tobacco of
which the Burmese cigar is made is
almost exclusively imported from
the ports on the Malabar coast.
The cigars thus made are not unlike
the well known Vevey manufacture;
and rank and strong as they seem
to non-smoker, they are highly
popular with English residents, and
not the less so from being remarka-
bly, cheap. Cigarettes are, however,
even more common than cigars, and
are almost always smokedlin prefer
ence by women and girls. They
vary in size, but the commonest is
q huge cheroot-shaped cigarette OF
almost torch like dimensions rolled
in a green leaf, and containing, be-
sides tobacco, spices and chips oi
scented wood. From these, which
are as mild as hay, an immense
cloud is drawn, and their only de-
feet is that the burning chips arc
continually falling on the clothes o.
the unwary smoker; hence the
graceful way in which the Burmese
girl, with apparent afectation, but
really with good reason, turns bach
her slender hand over her shoulder
to keep the lighted end of tn,
cigarette clear of her silken dress
At home or in the street, in tn,
boats or in the bazar, at every pub
lie gathering, even at those for de
votion at the pagoda, night and day
men, women and children blow
the familiar cloud, aud the perpet
ual cigarette adds not a little to tn
unique picture presented by Bur
mese beauty.

IN PARIS.
A glimpse At the American Colony


Mr.. G. @. Fulton, writing from
Paris to the Baltimore American,
says:
'What is called the American
colony in Paris consists of about
two thousand families, a large pro-
portion of them from the South. A
great many of them might be re-
garded almost as permanent resi-
dents. A goodly number of them
are people of limited means who
find they can live so much cheaper
here than in an American city that
they have concluded to stay, One
of them remarked to me to-day; 81
can live better in Paris on $4,000
per annum than | could in New
York on Sc, ,000." He then proceed;
ed to detail the difference. In New
York he would be regarded as no.
body unless he owned or rented a
brown-stone house at from $4,000
to $4,000 per annum. Here he
could obtain a suite of elegant
apartments, in a fashionable neigh
borhood, at from $500 to 81, 900 per
annum, and make as good an ap-
pearance as any one else IN his
sphere. In New York he would
have to pay $40 per week for a
ooachman, while here he could en-
gage q londau, with a fine pair Of
horses and a liveried footman
tArown in, to be always at the reas-
enable call of his family, for $l2 To
$15 per week. Then he said he
could clothe himself and family at
One-half the expense, and much bet
ter than he could in New York, that
there were always amusements here
at moderate cost, and a cab at cal
to take him and family home at al
hours of the night for two francs
while in New York such a luxury
would cost $5, Then there was lit
tie or none of the troubles o
housekeeping in Paris, as
family can be fed cheape
than it can feed itself, if satis6e,
with French living. But, he re
marked, an American can never fec
contented or comfortable in Pari
until he goes to housekeeping ant
orders his own food, and prescribe
the mode of cooking it. A French
man loves the table d'hote, but it j
an abomination to the American

Washington Republican,
The sum of $4,000, to be ex-
pended under and by the direction
Of the commission of agriculture,
was appropriated by the last con-
gress for the purpose Of investiga-
ting the origin and deyising rem
edy for the hog cholera. The esti-
mates made from returns received
at the agricultural department from
correspondents in all the counties
in the United States show that the
annual loss to the stock growers in
the country from the various dis
eases which are fatal to swine ag-
gregates more than $10,000,0O0.
The States which suffer to the
greatest extent are Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa and Missouri, the reported
annual loss in each Of them bein 9
about 81, 100000.

thirty years. Arriving here she
acquainted her brother of the fact
of her having met Mrs. Miner. In

ROMANCE or REALITY.
Marriage Of Two Lovers After Sep
arRIiOn OF Thirty -four Years.

Loavenworth Timesl
While the old maxim in reference
to the so-called fact that the course
of true love never did run smooth,
but was rather turbid and turbu-
lent stream, more calculated to get
riled uponlthe slightest provocation
than to flow onward, pure, limpid
and undefled, has, as a usual thing,
beon demonstrated as truth, it
has at least been met with an ex-
ception, the exception being more
an instance of the happy consum-
nation long deferred, however,
than the fervid dream of youthful
love clouded by the stern mandate
Of the severe and heartless parent.
And while the above reference to
maxim was enunciated by neither
Solomon nor David, but both of
them, it will be granted by unpre-
judiced parties, had considerable
experience in the ways of this
world, notwithstanding the fact
that they didn't live in the nine
teenth century AID, it must not be
denied that the saying is a true
one, given birth to by somebody
who knew what he was talking
about, and the fact that there is an
exception thereto to be met, only
goes to prove its virtue of infalli-
bility. The exception to this max
i'm, to which we are about to al
lude, is an instance of the union of
hearts after thirty-four years sepa-
ration, a separation as virtually
complete as though an ocean had
divided the twain. In the course
of human events, the publication
of a single marriage notice carries
with it no particular peculiar sig
nilicance, and when the following
one appeared it was probably the
subject of no more comment than
when other mortals had concluded
to link their fortunes and fight the
battle Of life together:
"Married-At Kansas City, Mo-,
July is, 1878, Mr.. Wylie @. Snail,
of Leayenworth, and Mrs. Rosa S.
Miner, of Nicholasville, KY"
THE ROMANCE.
But there is romance connected
with this little announcement, and
it goes to prove that time usually
brings things around as they should
be, During the years 1894
Wylie Q. Snail, then q lad of &c
years, and Miss Rosa s. Smith, q
miss of l3, were in attendance upon
college, at Danville, KY, she at q
young ladies' seminary, and he at {
school for boys. They boarded il
the same house, and as the months
passed on the acquaintance ripeneC
into friendship, and from friend
ship expanded into love, They saw
in each others eyes the mirrors Of
the heart, the reflection of thu
other; the fame was'mutual, nor die
they ondeayor to conceal it, II
1874, at the close of the regular
school term, they parted, confident
ly expecting to meet again in tn,
fall. she returning to her home Il
| Nicholasyille, and he to his, nea
Harrolsburg. But the fates VIII,
hold in their hands the slende
threads which are the reins, and di
rect the course of our lives, had de
creed it otherwise, and in the fall
! instead ofbaing sent back to Dan
) vile, she was sent to a seminar
