Our Paris Cable, Letter.

Between the Great, Exhibition and private
and public fetes the Parisinns are about as
gay as human surroundings will permit.
The great concert hall OF the Trocadero has
been thrown open. andais said to be fine
thing in its special way, as.well as great
adjunct to the Exhibition. Our own Sec
ton is complete ut last, andsour exhibits
are said to crafty the Frenchs in many re-
spects. The appreciation of possible pur-
chasers;is always a good thing, and when
we heartof California wheat being as highly
thoughtAof as California gold we see that
worldshows arc,useful to people who have
wheat to sell. They delight, too, in our
sleeping coaches. and they need them very
much on European railroads. Amid this
pleasant hum OF admiration over our prod
ucts and manufactures the suggestion that
q little more mon ey;-, some forty, thousand
dollars-is needed, comes upon US without
a very great shock. AS it is absolutely
necessary in order to insure our national
presentability NIL through the Exposition
We hope our Legislators will not only give,
bnt give ungrudgingly. General Grant has

his honor. but we are afraid from tho way
he is losing flesh that the French cuisine
does not agree with him rs we'll Us White
House cookery. II this wasting process
goes, on some fine day doctor may pre-
scribe for the General return to his eight
years home in Washington, and then what
patriot would oppose seeing the prescrip-
ton carried out. That might settle the
Potter bother. The latest device for gilt
edged charity is Kermesse, and the fair in
the Orangery ut the Tuileries. OF which we
catch a glimpse, shows that it is excellent
MS medium tor pleasure rs well as making
money in a good cause. Some of our
charitable ladies may take hint for sum
mer festival from this.

The Late WON ms Hotel.

In the happy days when the world was
younger people used sometimes to let the
better part Of their natures got the better OF
them, and so dealt charitably and gently
toward the wretched-t lean and
starved old men and women, and frozen,
half naked little fellows. Then it often
turned out delightfully."- that the wretchcd
and naked were fairies in disguise, who
thereafter filed the lives OF their gen.
erous entertainers with beauty and
pleasure. There are nos human ex-
periences recorded that were more
satisfactory than these mono in which men
and women got SO much for SO little, and in
which the little was yet of the precious sort
that is worth all IL produces. But il it was
pleasant TO have experiences Of that sort in
the misty other ages how must it be to
have them in these times OF prosy contrast
times OF horse cars and elevated railroads
and womcn's conventions and fraud in
vcstigations--times OF Potter and An
derson and Stanley Matthews? But it
il piece OF fortune great deal
like this that has happened to n number Of
Mrs. Stewards guests in the Wcmans Hotel
That institution presented itself to the pub
lie here in unpromising circumstances. and
scarcely any had good word for il. Faith
was scarce and helping hands were few.
Near.y all the women roviled it, scorned it,
criticised it, sneered at 1t and turned the
cold shoulder OF superior spirit But
some genle-minded women behaved in
altogether another wny. And behold tho
result! Now it is no longer mere woman's
hotel, no longer an open nunnery,
in which the guests arc condemned to the
dull secluson Of their own company.
IL is to be real hotcl--like other hotels =
and of the first class /; and 10 ! there will
be men in it. Men and women and
children and pianos, and maybe dogs
barking in the corridors and parrots
screaming in several rooms. II will be
rs nearly u paradise as any hotel can be,
and the lucky women who had faith in it
from the first will have the privilege of re-
naming there at the same exceedingly
moderate charges at which they were to be
entertained when the brilliant hotel was
