A Miraculous Corner at the Paris
Exhibition.

! Paris Correspondence of the Boston Journal
In a corner of the immense French
section, not far from the "Gallery
of Labor" is the group devoted to q
branch of industry in which the French
are masters, and which is constantly OBJ,
served by laughing crowds. It is the
spot Of all others to which a dyspeptic
visitor to the exhibition should first 20.
There the ingenious Gaul has shown
what be can accomplish in making toys
for children. Surely there never was no
ingenuity expended before upon such
little matters. In the room stands a lit
tie theatre, on the stage of which an or.
chestra of monkeys richly costumed, per-
form q selection of pieces of music.
These automatoDs are almost astonishing
enough to make one believe in the black
art. The leader gesticulates from time
to time, then addresses himself with true
artistic earnestness to his violin. and his
musicians play with feeling and taste
which might we'll make the Tziganes en-
vious. In miniature pond near by a
women, dressed in a handsome bathing
costume, is swimming. Were it not
for the Liliputian proportions of this
rival of Boynton and Webb,
it would be almost impossible to
imagine that it is not a human being.
Beneath wide spreading oak are seated
half dozen pretty girls, dressed in the
ravishing costume OF Louis Fourteenth's
time. Beside them is young cavalier,
who salutes them civilly, then hands
them basket, from which they take the
provisions necessary for a picnic. 1t is
magic you are inclined to say; yet it is
really nothing but mechanism. Pass a
little further on and you see fragment
of the Jardin d'Acclimation. The ami
mails are shown engaged in eating, in
nourishing their young, in soliciting
food from visitors; the toy elephant
slowly moves his trunk through the
grating, takes toy cake from a girls
hand, eats it, flaps his huge ears in token
of satisfaction, and passes out his trunk
for "more." The giraffe cranes his neck
and looks out comicslly upon you. A
sorcerer could do no more. This
mechanical world is as natural as the
real .one. And the doll-houses And
the armies marching, countermarching,
storming Notifications and firing mimic
cannons! Verify, one can not help re-
calling the remark which the satiric
Voltaire put into the mouth of his
prince OF Babylon. "The French are
the children OF the good God; I love to
remain here and play with them" By
no means forget the top corner at the
exhibition. Volumes might be written
about it,"

water in the pitcher, only one towel and
no soap, and the only window in the

young man, there is always room at the
top, and the dustier. you are, and the
more weary and travel worn ycu look, the
more absolutely certain is the clerk to

"A little three-year-old girl who
volunteered to say grace at the table did
so as follows: "Oh, Lord, Dress the things
we eat; Dress mamma and papa and
gampa "-and here, casting up her eyes
to her grandfather in the next seat, and
discovering that be was smiling, the
little one closed her prayer by saying
" Behave yourself, gampa-for Christ's
sake. Amen"

WAITS AND WHTMS.
Kissing.

There's a jolly Saxon proverb
That Is pretty much like this:
That man is half In heaven
When he has woman's kiss.
Bat there's danger In delaying,
And the sweetness may forsake it
30 tell you. bashful lover,
II you want a kiss, why take it.
Never let another fellow
Steal march on you in this
Never let laughing maiden
See you spelling for kiss.
There's royal wy OF kissing.
And the jolly ones who make
Have motto that is Winning:
II you want kiss, why take II.
Any fool may face a cannon
Anybody wear crown
But man must win woman
II he'd have her for mis- own.
Would you have solden apple,
You must find Tree and shake it;
Ii thing, is worth the having.
And you want kiss, why take it.
Who would burn upon desert
With a forest growing by?
Who would give his sunny sumpaeF
For black and wintry sky7
Oh | tell you there is magic,
And you cannot, cannot break it
For the sweetest part of loving
Is to want kiss and-tdke 1t.

chester, and speeches were also made by
Mr.. B. Blick, OF Norfolk "a member OF the
Grand Encampment), and Colonel Thomas
j. Evans. The speech Of MIR. Vanderslice
was most excellent effort, was loudly ap-
plauded, and was said by many to be the
speech OF the evening. Messrs. Blick and
Evans brought down the house by their
humorous salIies and apt illusions. Mr.
Charles N. Walsh. who responded to the
toast OF "Woman," was literally applauded
for bis mingled wit and pathos. Mr.. W. b.
Pendleton fully responded for Old Dominion
Lodge, of Portsmouth-the largest in the
State. -....
The Iodge-room was beautifully deco

word Welcome" was suspended. The
walls Of tue banquet-hall were decorated
with pictures Of distinguished Odd-Fellows.
The State and national flags were suspend
ed, and the word Welcome everywhere
conspiculousIy displayed. The Petersburg
lodges were accompanied by Pride's excel
lent band, which contributed no little TO
the enjoyment OF the occasion. The spe-
cal train was in charge Of William E. Min
gea, Esq, assistant agent at Petersburg, OF
whose courtesy all the visitors speak in
high terms. The affair was in every way a
pleasant one, and will furnish food for
pleasant reflection for years, and it may be
forever. Although divided by two rivers,
the blue waters OF hundred shining
rivers cannot separate the hearts Of the
Odd-FelloWs Of the little Cockade and her
Richmond brethren.
