at fractions as the flower stores that
are constantly filed with tho brightest
and rarest Of flowers.
just now roses and camelias are
abundant, and are largely bought az
Christmas and New Year presents.
The roses are never allowed 70 come
into full bloom, but are cut in the bud
We wonder where all the countless
camelias and roses are grown? for
they fairly line the Boulevards as we'll
as I'LL the stores. All the Chriftmas
week the airis rich with their per-
fumes, and the soft sunshine brings
out lhs brightest eolers. Whsn intent :
ed 40 presents the flowers are sent in
beautifully painted china pots and va
ses which are much more valuable
than the plants themselves.
The Partisan Christmas means
something moro than feasting, living
and receiving presents and sight see
ing. IL is something TO the very poor,
who then lave the privilege Of beggirg 4
accorded at no other time without =
regular license. The streets are full
OF beggars, at every corner they are
collected in squads, and they employ
all kinds of ingenious devices to at
tract notice. They have old fddles,
tin whistles, jumping jacks, strange
devices pinned to their clothes--every
device imaginable to get q penny.
The churches and the theatres are
open day and night, and always filled.
IL would be difficult to say which have
the best of IL, even on Sundays. But
the Frenchman makes all right by O
compromise. He goes to church in !
the morning, and TO the theatre In the
evening whore tho best performances
are on sunday. The Grand Opera is,
perhaps the finest building Of the kind
in the world, and one never tires look
ing at it's vast and harmonious propor-
tions and exterior ornamentations.
The same may be said of the Made
lene Church, though in our Judgment
it falls far below the Cathedral at COL
ogne in grace and beauty.
This New Years day is a universal
holiday, and the world Is on the streets
and Boulevards. Not the Parisians
only, but representatives from all ma
tions including Turks, Arabs, Zulus
and many other barbarous people in
their national Costumes, 40 well as
people from all parts OF Europe and
America. They are all here, like us,
o be amused, and they stop and sx-
anime everything that strikes them
as new and curious. Nobody is in
hurry, and nobody is ct all anxious,
except the proprietors Of the booths,
who are continually calling attention
to their trifes and seem happy to sell
TO one Of a hundred who stop to ex-
anime their goods.
With the hope that you and all your
readers have had . "merry Christ
mas" and will have happy and pros
porous year ! bid you and the old year
good bye.
