In Monaco.

correspondent, writing from Monaco,
says the climate of the Prncipsl,y is sin
gularly pleasant. Its sunny Southern
warmth is tempered by the cool Sea breeze,
and the heat one experiences is~not of he
stewing sitting order, but rather of the
roasting quality. The sunshine is fierce in
its heat, but its effect is undoubtedly aba
ted by the crisp, fresh air. When open
my window here in the morning and look
out to the right OF me | see the blue sea
which stretches right away to 1unis; to the
LETT are the mighty mountains that tower
above this gorgeous valley of La Conda-
mine; and rather to the left-to the cen
ter, in facts Monte Carlo-the magnifi
cent, the superb Monte Carlo.
At about midday, to one or two o'clock
IN the afternoon, everybody in the Conda-
mine district turns toward Monte Carlo and
climbs the hill-either in an onYAobus or in
an open carriage, or On foot; on the sum-
init OF which Is the Casino. The distance
is something less than half mile, but as
the ascent is extremely steep, the walk is
specially trying. The migration from the
valley to the hilltop is universal, however;
at about three or four o'clock in the after
noon there is hardly anyone but the natives
left in the Condamire district. Every
foreigner has gone up 10 the Casino, which
| is like magnificent Club, of winch every
| foreigner is member. The place is sur
rounded by gardens of tropical splendor
and luxuriance, from which one has the
most bewilderlngly beautiful views OF the
coast and the villages and the mountains
while as for the interior of the Casino it
seems hopeless for me to attempt to describe
lit IS simply q marvel of artistic splen-
dor and comfort. The marble columns,
the frescoes from the brushes OF famous
painters, the rich gold and silver ornamen-
tation, the priceless stained glass windows,
the mosaic flooring, the Russian leather
couches,and sofas. the mirrors filling up the
whole sides of walls; and the marble foun-
taIns banked up with every variety of pro
ltc tropical plant, ar4 the principal features
of the great hall called the Sale des Pa:
Perdus'' that is, the lobby. There is nc
such thing 'feeSag or tipping in tn
Casino; you leave your wraps AMI para
soils, etc, In the cloak room; you glance a
a few of the hundreds Of foreign papers
provided IN the palatial reading room; you
write your letters on the Casino paper, you
saunter into the famous concert room wher,
in one of the most splendid and luxurious
halls ever yet built, you hear an trchcstrs
.composed Of picked performers; you listen
to the music of the great masters of th
present as of the past-and for all this yol
pay not one penny.

ONE AND THEN lEOrHER

One step and then another,
And the longest walk is ended
One stitch and then another.
And the longest rent is me nded
One brick upon another.
And the Iii hest wall is made
One fake upon another.
And the deepest snow is laid.
50 the little choral workers,
By their slow and constant motion.
Have built those pretty Islands
In the distant dark blue ocean
And the ncblest undertakings
Mans wisdom ath conceived
By oft-repeated effect -
Has been patiently achieved,
Ihen n DO not look disheartened
On the york you haze to do.
And say that such a mighty task,
You never can get through !;
But jus. endeavnr, 6a7 by day,
Another point to gain.
And soon the mountain witch you feared
Will prove to be plain.
Rome was boil ed in day.
he ancient proverb teaches.
And nature, by her trees AID flowers,
The sa!ne sweet sermon prNaches
Think not Of fsr-off duties.
But OF duties which are near.
And having once begun to work,
Resolve to persevere.
