The expedition, after being imbedded IN the

ROMAN TASTES.
How Zola's Play Of LAssommoir Was Re-
ceived in the Eternal City.

Anne Hampton Brewster writes from Rome
to the Philadelphia Telegraph as follows upon
some OF tine characteristics OF the people OF
the Eternal City: "Ihe Romans are rude and
naughty, and do not like to work, but they
seldom commit acts Of violence or murder.
Throughout Italy the race stamp is very
strong The Roman has the same rudeness
that belonged to the ancestral stock, the N ca
poIitan Is rs crafty and willy as his Greek an
cestors; the Siciiian lawIess and barbarous as
were his African progenitors; the Tuscan re-
tains the old Etruscan characteristics OF in
tellect, imagination and tastes. The Romans
are easily shocked with horrors, and have no
taste for the representation OF crimes and
brutal vices, which please French audience.
.L'Assom tnoir' OF lola was played last week
at the two summer theatres, Corea and OUR
inc, and was received not only with disgust,
but rage The audience at the Corea even
broke the chairs and benches in their anger.
Ii WAS not because the translation was poor,
but because the people considered the story
an Insult to the public; it was an open protest
against the brutality OF the scenes, and the
great scene OF the French stage, the delirium
Lremens, was not given either; il 1t had been,
the audience would probably have attacked
the stage In their anger. The Roman is &c
drunkard; he drinks his fogiietta, and gets
sleepy and lazy, but he Is utterly ignorant OF
the low, debased condition to which rum re-
duces the Frenchman, EDglishman and Amer.

EGGENIE'S FORTUNE.
How Much Money the Ez-Empress Has, and
What She Does With 1t.
IN. Y. Times. ]


The ex-Empress Of France Is said to be one
OF the richest Willows III England. In addi-
ton to her Hungarian estate she has castle
In Spain and nice place In Switzerland But
hard cash Is what comes most useful to de-
throned sovereigns who hope to return, and
OF this the Empress has long had abundance.
1t lis estimated In Paris that she is worth at
least o Iai!lion sterling. Only recently she
sold u fufEe btettk 81 house property In the
Rue d'Alba, In Paris, and M. Rouher's house,
o well-knoWn political centre ut the corner OF
the Rus de lEiysee. was hers, III her own
right, and was sold last year for Gl5,o0O. The
death Of ths Prince adds to her property,
since he left to her q considerable amount OF
landed property in Italy. as well as the Tow
louise property, bequeathed to him by the
grisly General who had been equerry to the
Prince when he toddled about the corridors OF
the Tuieries nearly three feet high and
weighted with the miniature uniform OF q col
onei In the Cent Garda. This vast property
was no ncumbranee to the Empress whilst
yet she had son to live and scheme for. 1t
was drained pretty freely by the Bonapartist
organs OF the press in France. The Ordre
and the Pays were layishly supported by the
Empress, and she also drew handsome checks
in favor Of the reduction Of the Gaulois. The
need for keeping these fires warm Is now dead.
The Empress is not likely to keep newspapers
alive to work for her good cousin jerome.

Rents In Paris.

1t Is said that rents continue to rise In
Paris. and that proprietors are becoming day
BY day more absurd III the restrictions they
put on their tenants. Some will not allow
dog to be kept; others will not permit any
pet whatsoever; and some even will not allow
children to be in the house. A clever indi-
vldual has just managed, however, to over
come this last objection. He had seen an

Memory In different Races.

ltibulCdt iESSSi
Mr.. Deaunay has made communication to
the Societe do BioIogie respecting memory as
studied under various biological conditions.
The inferior races OF mankind, such as Ne
groes, the Chinese, etc, have more memory
than those Of a higher type OF civilization.
Primitive races which were uuacquainted
with the art OF writing had q wonderful mem
DRY, and were for agesin the habit OF handing
down from one generation to another hymns
as voluminous as the Bible. Proapters aid
professors of defamation know that women
have more memory than men. French TO-
than their husbands. Youths have more
memory than adults. It is Well-developed in
children, attains It's maximum about the four
teenth or fifteenth year, and then decreases.
Feeble individuals OF q lymphatlc tempera-
ment have more memory than the strong.
Students who obtain the prize for memory
and recitation chiefly belong to the former
class. Partisan students have also less MEM
DRY than those who come from the provinces.
At the Ecuie Norlnalc and other schools tine
pupils who nave the best memory are
not the most intelligent. The memory Il
more developed among the peasautry than
among Citizens and among the clergy than
among the aity. The memory remains in
tact In diseases Of the left side OF the brain,
and is much affected in those Of the right,
from which 1t may he inferred that the right
side is more the seat OF this faculty than tine
left. From a physiological point OF view
memory is diminished by oyer-feeding, by
physical exercise and by education, in this
sense, that the iiliterate have potentially more
memory taan those who know how TO read
and write. We remember, moreover, better
In the morning than in the evening, in the
summer than In the winter, and better in
warm than ia cold climates. Memory Is,
therefore, to a certain extent in inverse pro
portion to nutrition, and, more than that, 1t
is in inverse proportion to evolution, since it
Is greatest in those individuals who are the
least advanced from an evolutionary point OF
view-inferior races, women, children, the
feeble, etc. In short, according to Mr.. De
which is first sensorial, literal, and then intel
ig.nt; but memory, properly speaking,
diminishes inYersely as the evolution.
