Confidence Begets Confidence.

A well-knOwn Paris banker fell a vic
tim last summer to this business princi-
Pile. At Royat, where he went to take
the waters, he met the most absent
minded of the Academicians. While the
banker was TRANQUILITY reading news
paper in the casino, the philosopher fixed
his eyes upon his neighbours willie duck
trousers, and began tidgeting with the
inkstand. The result was that the ink
stand, topping over, emptied its contents
over the snowy-white ducks of the unsus-
pecting banker. The banker jumped up
and insisted that the pantaloons must be
paid for The philosopher said that he
would send the money to the banker S
room in less than an hour. The banker,
suspecting that the shabby little man
wanted to avoid payment, demanded
thirty francs then and there. The philos-
opher asked for receipt and paid the
money. Then, turning to the bystanders,
he said, "Now, gentlemen, you are wit
nesses that have paid for the trousers,
and trust you will support my reason
able request that the article of dress that
| have purchased may be at once placed
in my possession" The wearer Of the
ducks promised to deliver it within an
hour, but the philosopher would not trust
him. The banker was finally compelled
to retire to a private room, take of the
trousers, push them out to the purchaser,
and then remain in seclusion for an hour
while his servant was dispatched to his
lodgings to fetch another pair. The
banker is now known at the Boursc as
Sans CuL0teS.
FEW Of the persons who handle Bank
of England notes ever think of the
amount of labor ami ingenuity that is
expended on their production. These
notes are made from pure white linen
cuttings, never from rags that have been
worn. They have been manufactured for
nearly two hundred years by the same
family the Portals, Protestant refugees.
So carefully is the paper prepared that
even the number of the dips into the pulp
made by each workman is registered on
Il tial by machinery and the sheets are
carefully counted and booked to each
person through whose hands they pass.
The printing is done by u most curious
process in Mr.. Goes department in the
bank building There is an elaborate
arrangement for securing that no note
shall be like any other in existence.
Consequently there never was a duplicate
of Bank Of England note, except by
| forgery Scientific AmertcdH.

A Good Suggestion.

OfFicE POLICE JURY. OF THE }
PARISH OF RAPipEs, La,
Alexandria, August 81, 1873.
10 the President of the Police Jury of
the Parish OF Grant, Colfax, La.
A complete quarantine having
been established in this parish
against New Orleans and all other
Injected places, 1t is feared that the
necessities of the people, and es-
pecialiy the agricultural class may,
before the disappearance of the
epidemic, necessltate the establish
ment of more modified form of
quarantine than the total now ex
listing. 1t is believed that a s7s-
tenn of communication with New
Orleans can be reopened which will
admit OF the reception Of groceries
and other absolutely necessary
supplies, and the shipment down
OF cotton and other produce, and
at the same timesbe attended with
minimum of danger. This plan,
briefly, is to establish some central
quarantine d ,pot, say at the mouth
OF Black river, or better, Turn
bulls Island, where ali freight and
passengers from below, and all cot
ton from above shall be landed.
Steamers from New Orleans shall
stop at this point, and from there
to the points above a second
steamer, free of all epidemical infu-
ences, shall ply. In order to carry
out any such system successfully,
1t is thought that the corporation
of the adjoining parishes should be
secured. Surprising that the same
difficulties, which we have reason
to believe will arise in this parish
from the maintenance of strict
quarantine may also exist in your
parish. the Police Jury of this
parish has requested me to adj
dress you on the subject, and to
inquire whether under existing cir
cumstances, your parochial au-
thorities wonld be disposed to CO.
operate in the reopening of COM
munication on the plan proposed,
or some other of a similar charac-
ter. Of course, in the establish
ment of any system of colnmuniea-
ton, it is proposed that it shall lie
subjected to the control of the
strictest quarantine regulations
and that no means shall be neglect
ed t. redure the risk of introduce
ing yellow fever to the lowest posi-
BILE minimum.
/ wonld respectfully request,
therefore, that yon canse this sub-
ject to be bronght to the attention
of the Police Jury of yom parish,
and that you inform me OF the re
sult Of their action Mt your earliest
convenience. Trusting To hear
from you SION, | pm. very respect
fully, your obedient servant,
Il. SEP,
President Police Jury.
