principal hterati of Paris-all lovers of
high art-for his courage in mounting the
first piece of young poet. 1t is proof
OF how much art is appreciated and en-
couraged throughout France. How much
progress shall we have to make before
reaching the same development, and when
shall We clear ourselves of the reputation
we have earned of literary thieves, SO
much so that French dramatic writers
refuse to have their plays published, but
which has not, however, prevented their
being stolen all the same. When shall
our theatrical managers cease to be sur
rounded by inferior writers, plagiarists and
play thiefs, who prevent the approach of
all young and sincere authors. Not until
then can America have pretensions in that
direction, but it seems to me our country
is intelligent enough and courageous
enough to have such abuses cease at once
dramatic literature, at least that for
honesty.
EDMOND ABoUT's NEW BOOK
Has just come out, and is exciting all the
interest and curiosity that About's name
easily calls forth. 1 remember when, last
winter. during the very cold weather, he
went to his little country seat in the envi-
rons of Paris to begin his novel. 1t was
at the moment when :" Mama" by Emil
lola, was creating such a great sensation
and disgusting all lovers of morality and
noble sentiment. By the way, all English
publishers refused to receive translation
of the work, whereas orders came for it
from New York. Emile De Girardin con-
fessed that he began reading it, but became
so disgusted that he was not able to finish
the half of it, and he added that no woman,
however depraved, could read it without
becoming suprenely disguised with herself
and all mankind. 1t was then that Mr..
About said he would write novel to see if
the public had become altogether Indifferent
to realart and elegantliterature. Thesubject
of his romance is ''Roman dun brave
homme." The work is exceedingly simple
and touching, not in the word, but in
the thing or rather the idea which pro-
duces the effect. The style has no
pretention of itself it is contented with
as cloth of light. 1t resembles the style
of the eighteenth century, which certainly
does not exclude picturesqueness, color,
passion and originality. Dryness is the
only danger to be apprehended, but MIR.
About knows SO well how to mingle with
it freshness which blooms into modern
tenderness. The sentences had oftentimes
an accent dipped in tears, which are not
false, but flow as water from spring. In
reading the book, one is not astonished,
nor does he think of admiring he is pleased
in the company in which he finds himself,
is charmed, and learns to have friend
ship for the book. In the violent lucubra
tions of loud realism there are so many
rascals, and so few honest men, that one is
at first surprised to find so many honest
persons and so few rascals in MIR. About's

AMNESTY,

And every one had reason to rejoice at the
result. Besides, all those who will not be
benefited by amnesty are to be pardoned,
and that Immediately. AS may be sup
posed, all those Communards who are not
at Noumea are making haste to reach their
native soil. Immediately the vote passed
the Chambers the friends of Rochefort tel
egraphed him and he left for Lyons he is
expected at Paris this evening. Already
the walls in the streets are covered with
advertisements of new paper to be
established by the celebrated pamph-
letter on his arrival in his native country.
Yesterday being Sunday and holiday,
the people were occupied in making prep
arations for the fete. Many poor couple
were seen carrying under their arms their
flags and lanterns to adorn their lofty
windows. The children are not forgotten,
and tiny flags for almost nothing are
to be had, as well as rosettes and diff
ferent toys. all having connection with
the tearing down OF the Bastile
and the great rejoicing to take place on
Wednesday next. In fact the number of
objects of the national colors fabricated for
the l4th increase every day. Not only
are there the hats, ladies' dresses, cravat-
ties and umbrellas, but here come stock
ings, night-caps, candies, doll. babies, cigar
cases, purses, drinking glasses, shirts and
so on. Dressed out in the garments pre-
pared for the occasion, one would need
only to hang himself out of the window to
present respectable flag to the breeze.

In regard to amnesty the Senate proved
far less conciliatory than the Chamber of
Deputies, and after refusing the more gen.
erous amendment of this last body, voted
again their astamendment-Boz with
pieces and slices here and there. The
Chambers, in order to put stop to all
conflict and finish with the affair as soon
as possible, voted the bill as it came from
the Senate, and that without the slightest
discussion. One of the members remarked
that it was not amnesty grand and liberal as
the Government had proposed it, but that

PAUL DELAIR,

Whose tragedy "Garin" has just been
performed for the first time at the Theatre
Francois. 1t is to the credit of this the
alter to have played the first piece of a
young artistand lavishedon it the richness of
decorations and costumes which the drama
required to have done for him what they
would have done for the most glorious of
poets. The author has drawn his inspira-
ton from Shakespeare, and one of the
characters is almost an imitation OF Lady
Macbeth The plot is historical and the
verses are full of patriotism, and although
the drama is not solidly constructed the
pieces are excellent. The best actors and
actresses of the company played the prin.
cipal roles, and were. warmly applauded
for their excellent acting Mr.. Perrin,

ANTS are m IRE domestic than man.
These wonderfully intelligent six-footcd
communists make forays in flank
marches by columns or by solid pha-
lanx. They believe fully in the sssurvi-
val of the fittest," for they exterminate
the lazy by biting them in two. Com
munications are conveyed to one another
by their antenn@, and their chief
sense is that of smell. They raid the
haunts of other species, carry away the
pupa, and keep the captured product in
a life of slavery. BEETLES are their hens,
and lay eggs for them. A black ant
furnishes secretion answering to the
dominant race for milk, and this milk
they actually squeeze from their cows.

should be encouraged to start low, so
that a low, round, compact, spreading
head may be produced. Much may be
done in forming the head by tying down,
or hanging weights upon limbs that are
inclined to wander from the way they
should go, so that when they are old
they will not depart from it. "As the
twig is bent the tree is Inclined" and a
piece of hemp twist will soon bring a
crooked young tree into regular and

A NEW and valuable variety of celery
which originated near Newark, N. j.,
IS attracting considerable attention
among market gardeners. 1t is called
the Golden Dwarf and in size and habit
of growth is much the same as the
dwarf white kinds, except that when
blanched the heart, which is large and
full, Is of waxy, golden yellow, rem
dering it most striking and snowy
variety, for either market or private use.
1t is entirely solid and of most excellent
flavor and one of the best keepers dur
ing winter we have ever known. The
habitual daily use of this esculent can
not be too highly recommended 1t is
said to promote digestion, quieting, too,
the nerves, and is highly recommended
in connection with good nutritious food
as sort of vegetable tonic. Canary
birds are very fond of it, being of a
delicate organization, easily frightened,
and subject occasionally to fits, they APP
pear to be benefited by it.

or clothing preparatory to sweeping
day, then let this be the first to be swept.
Cover the bed with soiled sheets, as also
all heavy articles that can not besne-
moved, first, however, having carefully
busted and brushed them. Remove all
furniture that can be easily set in hall or
adjoining room, having first busted it.;
then, taking step-ladder, begin to
sweep or brush, or wipe the cornice and
picture cords and pictures. Draw the
shades to the top Of the window, or If
there are inside blinds, dust them care
fully. Open the windows. All the dust
left in the room now is in the carpet or
air, and the current of the windows will
soon settle it. Now begin to sweep,
not towards door or corner, but from
the outer edges of the room towards the
center, where the dust will be taken up
with small brush and dust-pan. Go
over the room once more-this time
with a dampened broom; that removes
the last bit of dust and gives the carpet
a new, bright appearance. Replace the
articles of furniture as soon as the air is
entirely free from dust, uncover the rest
and the room is new and clean. Allthis
seems an easy thing to do, but there is
not one in hundred that viii follow out
the details. Some will sweep the dust
into the hall or from one room to an
other. and then wonder why their house
is SO dusty again. Others forget cornice
aud pictures, and thus leave seed of
future annoyance, while third class
will-do all but using the damp broom,
which is as the finishing touches to a
picture.

written, the victims are nevertheless quite
numerous. The latest swindle SO far as
heard from, and there are doubtless many
cases that never will be reported, was per-
pctrated on farmer, John Riley, who
lives east OF town, by the lightning rod
swlhdlers who infest this county. They
play their game as follows: An advance
agent calls upon the farmers and offers to
put up the rods for small sum, and OBJ
tains an order; when the crew who follow,
finish the work, bill for double and treble
the amount OF the sum stipulated is charged
and note usually obtained. In the case
of Mr., Riley, the advance agent offered to
do the work for $50, and an order was
given. After the work was finished, bill
for $47 was presented and Riley was COM
PEELED, or rather permitted them to buldoze
him, into signing it. 1t is very strange
that people will allow themselves to be
swindled in this barefaccd manner, and
those who do so, after the many and oft
repeated warnings given, deserve but little
sympathy.
SHAME.-There are few people in this
world, and thank God they are few, who
are possessed of no finer feelings than the
brutes, and now and then we come across
one OF these despicable, contemplate

pose themselves, to keep from advising

though the case will be tried before the
proper authorities, we cannot refrain from
expressing our indignation, at the party or
parties, who would in this land of plenty,
attempt to even take crust from help.
less cripple. The facts as near as we can
learn are as follows: In the winter of 1878
and during the fearful storm of January,
a man named Christian Swanson was froz
ed so badly that he lost both arms and
legs, and is consequently a most helpless
cripple. Swanson has been living with q
man named Larson in Scandal, and owns
or rather has filed on tract of gov ern
any great improvements, neither could ht
reside alone on his claim, and what little
has been done on the land has been through
the kindness of friends. Recently some
miserable heaTtless wretch entered con
test at the land Office and is endeavoring t.
wrest the poor fellows claim from him, OF
the ground that he has not complied will
the law. We do not know what will b.
the outcome, but in any event Swanson
will be put to an expense he can lily afford
but we have no hesitation in saying tina
the authorities, if the case is properly rep
resented, will set eSide the contest if pos
sible. 1t is shame and disgrace to TIT
county to have within its borders, MAJ
who would be so mean, so heartless, as t.
rob the helpless. Language cannot ex
press the indignation and contempt we fee
toward such creature.
