There is charming SudUe and simplicity
with the ladies Of the high social circles o.
France that no other country can compete
with. Lately saw this exemplitied in
way that most pleasantly impressed me. a
fancy fair, or 'kermesse," was held in the
Tuilleries Garden, and the presiding spirits
were some seventy of.the most diStingueeS
ladies of Paris society. II was the creme.
de-la.Cre12e meeting or the season, and
everything and everybody seemed to make
1T brilliant, sunny affair. A theatre built
OF flowers, the platform only being visible
boards. On this the most popular opera.
boutfe singers appeared, and made life one
day longer and brighter. Many celebrated
actors and actresses performed, and from
the Theatre Francais galaxy of stars came
forth to delight and interest. These per-
formed in another theatre, constructed after
the design OF the one on which Moliere in
his early day acted.
In addition to theatres there were GO merry
go-rounds," wheels Of fortune, revolving
horses OF wood, and puppet shows OF end
less variety. The graceful and lovely
Princess Poniatowski presided at an Ameri-
can bar, and made some OF us roar with
laughter at her assumed knowledge OF
"miXed drinks" and doing them out at
ten francs glass! She is very witty and
full Of jokes, many good western ones
OVERLOOKING with spice aud spirit. She
was dressed la mode de Irianon, and Was
the belle of the fete. The Duchess de la
Rochefoucait and the Princess de Leon
played the part of milkmaids, and actually
MIXED the enstalled COWS, to the amaze
ment Of children and city danes. The
dress, the cow-shed, and the entire picture
at this spot was most rustic and attractive.
"OnIy five francs for glass Of true milk !"
the lovely princess would cry, and how she
sold the simple fluid I hear her receipts
were 4,000f. A countess was gypsy, a
q marchioness a washerwoman, and a
princess nurse. What spirit and grace !!
And the men? Gustaye Dore contributed
sketches, Destaelle paintings, Protalis i'm
portraits, and Sardou music. The
Princess SATAN sent iewelled ornament in
diamonds and pearls that was estimated at
$4,000, to be raffled for-and lost. But
the band played, and we all laughed, and
Charity smiled.-Paris letter-Baltinaor

Scene i'm n Church-..A Stranger Wants
to Preach.


to Preach:
Yesterday morning scene occurred in
one Of our uptown churches which was
out OF the usual order OF exercises, and
which for a time caused no little excitement.
The congregation had gathered and the
opening services had been held as usual,
and as the pastor arose and announced his
text q well-dressed, .fine-looking man.
stranger to tic congregation, quietly walked
up the middle aisle, and, ascending the pull
pit, notified the astonished divine that he felt
called upon to do the preaching on the oc-
casion. The action was done so.quiely that
none OF the congregation, although the pro-
ceeding was so unusual, saw tit to inter-
fere, and it was not until after the services
that they were made aware Of the converse
ton between the pastor, and the stranger.
The former calmly requested the stranger
to be seated until he had delivered bis mes
sage, when they would discuss the matter,
when the latter quietly did so, and during
the sermon never moved from his position.
AS the minister proceeded to- deliver
an eloquent sermon ON the power
Of sin over mankind and the work.
ings Of an awakened conscience, the
throughout his emotion was q literal illus
tration of the words of the minister. After
the close of the services the stranger. with
tears in his eyes, begged the PASTORS par
don for his strange proceedings, and stated
that he had been up all the previous night
with man who was sick, and rs he came
into the church he was seized with an ire
sistibe impulse to do as he did. He
had been drinking-man, but for
three months had not touched q
drop of anything strong. He earn
estly begged permission to make an
apology to the congregation for his strange
behavior, and said that it was the most hui
currence created quite an excitement OF a
quiet nature, especially among the female
portion OF the congregation, and the pastor
was complimented on his nerve in preach
ing with his usual force with an apparently
insane man seated behind him.-Philadel-

MISTAKEN SENTIMENTs.-lRale Chris.
tiGn Advocate. IA great many mistake re-
liigious sentiment for religious life. Be-
cause they are touched by religious truth
they fancy they are religious. Because they
are susceptible to religion they think they
have 1t. An impression is to them the same
as IL they obeyed it; to appreciate right is
the same as though they did the right.
Weeping over book Of martyrs, they al
most think it as heroic as though they died
at the stake themselves. They come to take
what God has planted In them as substi-
tute for a practical Christian life.
