wine can be fortified without de-
lection; and therefore it is such a
wine that goes to England. The
Russians like very sweet wine; but
sweetness conceals quality. They,
too, get an inferior article. The
Germans like dry, or tart wine
but it is their habit to drink cham
pagne last at dinner, after they have
drunk Sausterne, port, Burgundy
or sherry; consequently their taste
is impaired when the champagne is
reached, and they do not obtain a
prime article. The French are
economical, and do not pay enough
for the best quality Of wine. They
send it away and pocket the money
fer it. They like a moderately
dry wine, but their favorite is claret.
The Americans, too, prefer a dry
wine; they prefer also champagne;
they drink it early at a meal, and
they pay well for it. Now a dry
wine must be of fine quality in or
der to be considered fine by con-
noisseurs. The Americans are con-
noisseurs, and for this reason, as
well as for other reasons just men
toned, they get the best champagne
that is made"
The speaker then proceeded to
explain the process of making
champagne. In June the vineyards
present blush fuzzy appearance,
owing to the color OF the sticks two
feet high that support the yet leaf
less vines. The same sticks are
used year after year, taking their
color from the action Of the atmos-
phere. In July and August the
plants have sprouted and the vine
yards are a tender green. Toward
the end Of September the grapes
begin to ripen, and in October the
vintage time has come, and the
hillsides are picturesque with men
and women in big, round fiat hats
with blue and red streamers, and in
white muslin frocks and dresses.
After the bunches are plucked, old
women select the choicest of them,
throwing them into baskets to be
sold to the manufacturers. The
land in France is divided up into
small sections, and cultivated by
Independent owners; so that each
great manufacturer Of champagne
buys his grapes from a large num-
ber of producers.

The Pail Mall Gazette in arecent
issue says:
A most extraordinary scene oc-
Cured at st. Paul's Church, Clap
ham, during morning service yes
terday. The Rev. Mr.. Barston, a
curate who had lately come to the
parish church, ofiiciated. During
the earlier part of the service his
wild and eccentric manner was no.
tioed by the congregation, but as
he proceeded it was more and more
marked. The first psalm he read
in loud and excited tone, and
when he came to the verse, "The
pains of hell get hold upon me, |
shall find trouble and heaviness, and
| will call upon the name of the
Lord" suddenly stopped short,
glared wildly at the congregation,
and, throwing his arms around his
head, shouted again and again, 81
will call upon him. Yes, by heaven,
l will" The congregation were
greatly alarmed and the ladies pres
ent ran to the doors, while several
gentlemen ran to Mr.. BarstQn, who
had fallen heavily from the reading
desk to the floor. Rising, however,
before they could catch him he ran
down one Of the aisles after the re-
treating congregation, and his run
ming and shouting increased the
alarm. The women screamed and
shrieked, and several tainted. On
reaching the door Mr.. Barston was
seized by several men, who threw
him on the mat, while the sexton
went for a doctor. The curate,
however, made such desperate
struggles to get away that it took
eight persons to hold him down,
while at the same time he kept
shouting out, 81 will, l will call on
his name, | will. 0 Lord, deliver
mel" A doctor, who had been
brought from neighboring church,
soon arrived, and the curate, who
had now become very weak, was put
in a carriage and taken home. Sew.
eral persons were hurt, though not
seriously, by being crushed against
the doors. Mr.. Barston, on enter.

tries.
New York Evening POit.l
Are Americans good judges of
champagne? The question has
provoked considerable discussion
since the appearance in the Even
ing Post Of several reports Of in
teryiews on the champagne ques-
ton. Scarcely less interest has
been awakened ou the subject of
the quality Of foreign champagne
sold in this city. Do or not the
French manufacturers send the
best quahty to America
In a conversation yesterday with
representatives Of a leading import
ing firm IN New York these mat
ters were pretty well ventilated,
"Let me assure you," said one
speaker, "that Americans are con-
sldered to be excellent judges of
champagne by every great house in
the champagne district. Such
houses know that Americans are so.
Why, Americans pay more for
their champagne than do any other
people in the world. Consequently
and naturally they get a better ar
ticle for their money. Many of our
customers, after trying this wine
in every country Of Europe,
have returned TO America and
told US that what we sell them
is finer than what they got across
the water. Outside of New York,
Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, San
Francisco and other cities, many
gentlemen undoubtedly are not con-
noisseurs. But the bulk of our
wines is drank in tho great cities
and there the drinkers are, as q
rule, expert wine-tastcrs. No rep
utable house could afford to send
an inferior grade Of champagne to
this country. They would be
found out and would suffer loss.
Let me show you how careful they
are. A short time ago we received
an order for five hundred halfpint
bottles Of champ agne. The house
we represent refused to fill the or
der, even though the person who
sent it promised greatly to increase
it. lie wanted the wine in small
quantities for use in the sick-ro9m,
where even o pint bottle is too large
for the requirements of the occa-
sion. The ground Of the refusal
was that, for some reason which !
myself do not understand, the
champagne kept in so small bottles
is never as good as vhep in larger
bottles. The reputation Of the
house was in dangers and the order
could not be HHed,"
=" Where docs the best champagne

ment ago. The English like an
alcoholic wine, and they get o
champagne strongly fortified -

planned of this to Mr.. Willis in a
half-playfpl, half aggrieyed letter,
to which he replied: 'How can you
expect anything better? Your
genius is not of a kind to affiliate
with your name. Who will read a
poem signed "Chubbuck"? Sign
yourself "Fanny Forester" aud
you will see the change" She
did so, and her success was com.
plete, as those who have followed
the fortunes of this interesting wo-
man, afterward the wife of the East

remember. From this hint OF Mr..
