Like AarOnS rod. the Egyptian

The revolutionists hold their sun
day meetings, and it is really worth
half a franc-for lips though rosy
must be fed-to hear occasionally
crack orators and Oratrices, yentil-
ating their craZeS at the expense OF
the receipts. l never listen TO my
five penny worth of tall talk but
feel convinced there is a pleasure IN
being mad, which only mad men
and women know, especially when
Louise Michel is down to speak. /

sorry suppression Of prostitution, by
aboliShing the government which is
the cause of its existence, and the
league of lady revolutionists; the

the deplorable fact was stated, how

ops.
Of a different character, but not
a whit the less visionary, was the
banquet of the Vendeans, who as
sembled to chat over the wRlnutS
and wine, respecting the immediate
restoration of Henri V: since half
a century, the Count De ChambOrd
is ever on the point Of ascending the
throne of his ancestors. There was
an agreeable innovation at the ban
quet. the chairman and the vice
sang-not comic rOyalist songs. The
Bonapartists have made up their
differences: the family is now uni
ted: the basis Of the reconciliation is
this, that the nation be left free to
elect Napoleon v, either in Prince
Jerome or his two sons. We pause
fer a reply.
Criminal statistics OF France from
1880 to 1880, have been published.
During half a century, neither
forms Of government nor educa-
tiOnal progress have diminished
crime. Civil lawsuits are on the
increase. but are fewest, strange to
say, in Normandy, where the CARS
have the reputation to cavil on the
ninth part of hair. In Brittany
the bailiffs are starving for want
of work; they ought to emigrate to
Ireland, since they speak Gaelic,
Celtic, Cymbric, or other sic" flu
emily. The demands by married
couples for separation have aug
mented four fold; they would be
greater of late, only both combat
tantS rest on their arms, pending
the voting Of the divorce law; so
per cent. of the separations are from
wives, and turn chiefly ON monetary
matters, for PlutuS and the notary
have schased Cupid from modern
wedlOck; fewer separations are So
licited by the rurals, because per-
haps there are fewer neighbOrS to
envenOm the quarrel. The suicides
were five per 1000 in 1880, they are
now thraefOld-79 per cent. being
by men-a suspicious coincidence
with the percentage (S0) OF wives,

RomeOs. Only think of two cases

should seek themselves the happy
land, far, far, away. One instance
is averred, where a parent who
seemed to be graduating for i'm
mortality, was ordered to be hanged
by the verdict Of the family cOun-
Gil. In Turkey, the cord for such
is supplied gratuitously. Young
Ginat might well be entrusted with
that task: he has just been SEN
fenced by the court of Reims to
transportation for life, for hanging
his old mamma: she was living too
long on his hands. An ebony scion
Of some extinct royal family Of st.

to a fine Of 100 francs for laying vio-

Perhaps when we arrive to be armed

Crow hunting is becoming a favor
