French Breakfast.

Can't get acclimated to French
breakfast. First the hOur-1l O'Clock
And the first dish! Soup! Potage! !!
Soup for breakfast! And the waits
between the actsi I mean tie inter
walls between the dishes as they're
brought on the table. They seem to
have no idea of the value of time to
an American. What is breakfast?
mean an American breakfast. A swal-
low of coffee, bite of bread, a bolt of
beefsteak! C'est tout, nest peas !?
Oui Time, ten minutes. But here
the waits between the dishes are five,
ten, even fifteen minutes. Betimes me-
thinks they have forgotten me alto
gether. Occasionally they commence
their meal with a slice of bologna
brought in on a plate with ridiculous
ceremony. l fork my slice of bologna
to my mouth. VOilai The plate is
empty. But the Gaul cuts it up with
as much pomp and circumstance as
though it were a turkey, and eats it
circumspecily, bit by bit. And after
the soup a single dish of boiled beans
or caulifiower. Alone and unsup-
ported by aught else. And in ten
minutes more miniature fish. Over
| this the Gaul wastes a good quarter
of an hour. l cut my fish in four
pieces and swallow it in eight seconds
| a I Americaine. For I am dilligent
in business-and breakfast. Sees thou
a man dilligent in business He shall
.tand before kings, even though dys-
pepsia stand with him. After the dish
a bit of steak. Enough to bate fox
trap. Oh, the precious minutes the
Gaul waits over that steakl And
then cheesel Cheese for breakfast
And then confection. A teaspOonfu
of jam! which the procrastinating
| Gaul requires ten minutes to eat. And
then coffee and a cigarette. For al
of which the Gaul takes an hour, a
least. Sixty precious golden minutes
wasted here every day here by thou
sands over what they call breakfast

decanter of brandy into my blacl

TWO WOMEN.

grandma sits in her great arm chair;
Balmy sweet is the soft spring air.
Through the latticed, Iilac-shadowed pane
She looks to the orchard beyond the lane.
And she catches the CLEAN of a woman's
As it fiutters about in the winds caress.
''That child is glad as the day is long
Her lover is cOmiag, her LIES song
Up from the orchards fiOwery bloom
Floats fragrance faint to the dark'ning
room
Where grandma dreams, till a tender grace
And softer light steal into her face.
For once again she is young and fair,
And twining roses IN her hair.
Once again, blithe as the lark above,
She is only girl, and a girl III Lowell
The years drop IRON her their weary pain;
She is elapsed in Der lovers arm againl
The last faint glimmers of daylight die;
Stars treEAbIe out of the purple sky
Ere Dora fits up the garden-path,
Sadly afraid of grandma's wrath.
With rOse-red cheeks and flying hair
She nestles down by the old arm chair.
E'Grandma, Dick says, may we-may-I-''
The faltering voice grows strangely shy.
But grandma presses the little hand,
Yes" nv dearie, understand
'He may have you, darIingP' Not all in
vain
Did grandma dream she was girl again !
She gently twisted a shining curl;
"Ah, mel the philosophy Of grip
''Take the worlds treasures-its MOBILES,
best
And love will outweigh all the restp'
And through the easement the moonlight
cold,
Streams on two heads-one gray, one gold.

The Ametenr Iames Bows.

We find in an exchange the follows
ing account of the young scape graces
who robbed a train load Of towards
near Hope, Arkansas, sometime ago.
II is written by an editor, Mr.. Log
gins: 81 have learned that three
young men, viz: u. r. Sullivan
Archie Horn aud James Price, Of San
Augustine, Texas, have been convict
ed for the robbery of the train on the
Iron Mountain road, above Hope, on
the 22nd. / don't wish TO ask for too
much space, nor 20 Justify the act of
the convicts, but would remove any
injustice done the boys, as to accusa-
tons of previous crimes-I mean the
two latter--as to Sullivan, have
never known much about him. He
came to San Augustine county about
two years ago, and engaged in farm
ing and wagoning, and all the time
up to his leaving that county, on the
l4th ult., conducted himself becoming
ly. Last spring mis- father and mother
came on from Florida, and located
about five miles east of the town Of
| San Augustine. Ia the neigbborhOOd
Of Price and Horn. just previous TO
| eaving TIE county, Sullivan went into
| town and settled in full with his mer-
/ chants, and left no debt behind. I
/ have known Price and Horn ever
/ since they were babies. Price worked
as "devil" in my printing Office, the
/ San Augustine Saxon, for two years,
/ and was always very exemplary in
! his conduct, and, therefore, ] am slow
to believe him bad boy at heart-I
don't believe it. i will not believe it.
That he acted a bold part in the rob-
berry for which he wins convicted !
have 10 kind of doubt, but that he
| went into it of his own volition, i
| shall always doubt. He is a boy ca
pable Of being persuaded into viols-
tions of che law, and when once en-
listed he possesses courage enough TO
make him a bold operator. He Is Of
a good family, whose record is spot
less, and the news Of his completely IN
the train robbery referred to was q
thunderbOlt III the community OF has
nativity. Price is not nineteen years
old yet, and 1 grieve to think bis
Young life is so blighted, and that too
by reason Of older counsel. And
hope the Executive Of Arkansas VIII
not suffer a boy like him to spend his
DAYS in a felOn's cell for / believe that
few years confinement will amply
: tisfy the demands of justice.
There is no kind of doubt but that
the robbery of the train near Hope
was the first violation of law on the
part Of Price-it was the first train he
ever saw.
, l hope this letter will be published
and Price may be furnished with a
copy and hope that he viii rigidly
t adhere TO my advice, when l advise
hifn 10 carefully obey the commands
, OF the prison officials, and in every
+, I respect confirm TO the rules Of the
prison disipiine and in the event of
Z his 50 doing, he may be assured that
he has a friend who will use every
means to secure his pardon"

The growth of the silk industry in
the United States is quite wonderful.
Our silk imports last year were $685.
100000, but we manufactured million
dollars worth more Of silk at home.
"Our imports are now mainly con-
fined t. dress silks and Yelyets. Of
satins, we make five times as much as
we import, and of sewing silks, ma
chine twist, and floss, nearly thirty
times as much. II is in ribbens, how
ever that we chiefly excsI, the prOduc-
tions of last year reaching over $6.O00,-

informed that most Of the elegant
trimmings, frills and furbelows sold

manufactured in Connecticut and New

THE Philadelphia Times gives this
little discourse for the benefit of all
concerned:
If man advertising for dead cats
should state in his advertisement that
the hairs on the tails Of such cats must
be complete and in perfect order, it
would not be more absurd than the
advertisements for Confederate bonds
which specify that the 1865 coupons
must be on the bonds. 1t is difficult
to see how the 1865 coupons, or any
coupons, can make these bonds more
valuable than they would otherwise
be- If Confederate bonds were offer
ell with strings of coupons as long as
the tail of a kite they would never
be worth the three dollars a thousand
which some of the unwise people on
the other side of the water are paying
for them. The value of these bonds
depend altogether Oh the quality of
the paper on which they are printed,
without regard to whether they are
genuine or counterfeit. Bonds of fair
quality, printed on some of the bank
note paper which ran the blockade iii
the earlier mOnts Of the war, might
now be worth six cents a pound
But this quality of paper gave out
long before the Confederate printing
presses ceased to run. Some of the
later issues were on paper which
would hardly answer to wrap pound
of sausage5 in. These bonds, either
with or without the coupons of 1865
have an intrinsic value of from half {
cent to one cent a pound, according
to To the demand for them Oh the
part Of the junk-man.

Bayard, Davis, Mcpherson and August
ScheIl, W. II. Barnum, Gen. Sickles and

West Virginia to examine some undeYel-
Oped lands with view OF making invest

After Secretary Blaine is relieved OF his
duties in the State Department, he expects
to make a mid-winter tour of the Southern
States, During the time he was Speaker Of
the House, he made many personal friends
among the Southern members and promi-
nent Southern gentlemen whom he met
during his long residence in Washington.
His enthusiastic reception at Yorktown
has no doubt persuaded him that he will be
kindly received at the South.
