Victor Hugo's Profession Of Faith.

What is to die. If it is not to live for
ever? Those millions of worlds above which
call US by their radiant symphony, bear me
witness. And beyond those millions of
worlds. what is there; The infinite, always
the infinite II pronounce the name of God,
bring smile to the lips of some among
you who do not believe in God WHY do
they not believe in God, Because they believe
only In the vital forces Of nature. But what
is nature? Without God, nature is but a
grain Of sand. This is like the looking at
the small side Of things because the great
eide dazzles us too much. But / believe in
the great side. What is the earth? A cradle
and a tomb. And even as the cradle has its
beginnings, so the tomb has its dawning for
the dead; it is a door closed indeed to the
world, but opening upon worlds of which we
may now obtain only a far distant glimpse
Messifnrs, believe if you will that shall be
buried TOMORROW or in ten years to come-I
feel within me the assurance that the tomb
shall not hold me prisoner II feel that your
six feet Of earth cannot make night where I
am lying your earthworms may devour all
that will perish in my frame, but that some
thing which is the life of my brain-the life
of my eyes--the life Of my ears, my forehead
and my lips, can be destroyed by no power on
earth

Napoleon III. and His Extraya-
Uance.

The great Napoleon assumed state aud en-.
couraged luxury from calculation :his nephew
both from policy and taste. Napoleon III.
was fond of pomp and show. besides being a
confirmed sensualist; and he derived per
sonal enjoyment from his entertainments
They were on magnificent scale: but the
only marked or lasting influence of the mpe-
rial Court, As regards fashion or manners
was on female dress. The invitations to Com
pegnc and Fontainebleau were commonly
for eight days; and lady was expected TO
change her dress three or four times a day.
and never to wear the same dress twice The
outfit for the visit was computed Mt not less
than l2.0O0f. We have heard French
woman of the imperial circle complain that
she could not dress for less than | 900 a year
mIliiners bill, on which an action was
brought, amounted 10 { IL 900 for three years
and the fair defendant paid El2, 900 into court
The case was reported in the Gazette des
Tribunaux This spirit of extravagapce
proved catching and extended to England,
where traces OF it are still discernible It is
not uncommon for lady at a country house
to come down in morning dress, change it
for lawn-tennis or a walk put on a neoiige
trimmed with lace for the afternoon tea, and
then dress for dinner or a ball The onlv
parallel in the male sex must be sought
among the 1eUnes doree who indulge in fancy
costumes Tor the smoking room. Male dress
errs on the side Of negligence. The cut of
coat, the tie of ancckcotb. or the pattern of
waistcoat is no longer a title to fame, and
Brummel or a dOrsay would be social
anomaly or impossibilty. No iudefensible
fashion has taken 80 complete hold on wo-
men of all classes as the fashion for false
hair. Seventy-five tons of hair from the
East paid duty at Marseiles alone in 1857,
and NJ. Baudrillart computes that double that
quantity IL annually worked up in France
The exports, principally to England and the
United States, are estimated at f75.OO0--

1t is nonsensical for farmers to think
that they can successfully raise two crops
on the same land at the same time. vet the
action of many in undertaking to raise n
hoed crop or a hay crop on the same land
where an orchard is set would seem to in-
dictate that many believed this to be posi-
BILE. To have an orchard flourish and
yield abNndantly, the land or which it
grows should be devoted exclusively to
the trees, otherwise they will seldom bear
and when they do the fruit will be of in
ferior quality. On the other hand the
plants of hoed crops cultivated in the
shade of trees will grow up pindling. and
when harvested will be immature, and the
yield small and unsatisfactory

THE LATEST SWINDLE
Practiced Upon the UnsOphisticated
of East WASHINGTON.

The very latest swindling scheme is that
being practiced upon ignorant white and
colored people, principally In tho unsettled
section of northeast Washington, by we'll
dressed colored man, who claims to be the
Washington agent OF the "Great Union Lottery
Company OF New Orleans"
He calls upon his victim and shows ticket,
which he offers to sell for one dollar, stating,
at the same time, that "each and every ticket
draws prize" He then exhibits long list
OF prizes, consisting OF bedroom sets, parlor
sets, gold watches, brick houses, horses, car
riages, etc., which is generally effective In
causing the victim to bite at the allurlng bait.
He Is n very accommodating cuss, too, and II
the party is short of finances he will take fifty
or twenty-five cents and agree to collect the
remainder when the prize is drawn, which is
usually two or three days later. At that timo
he again appears, bringing u slip, upon which
is written tho prize alleged to have been
drawn, and II the prize Is a horse he very mag
unanimously allows the victim to select size,
color and sex, or, II parlor set, color and
style. He thereupon finds very little difficulty
In collecting the remainder of the dollar, stat
ing upon receiving 1t that the goods will be
along In few days.
Tho game is SO shrewdly worked that he
succeeds eight times out OF ten. The swindler
was met on East Capitol street the other even.
ing by an old man he had duped and had he
not have fed precipitately upon being recog.
nized, he would have been seized and turned
over to the police. He Is about 30 years of
ngc, pock-marked, rather tall, of q dark color
md very we'll dressed.

A Russian View of the Progress OF
the United States.

st. Petersburg Novoe Vremia.
The perusal OF the annual budget OF the
United States gives us great pleasure. We
and that Its income is ever Increasing, its
expenses are decreasing and Its debts are
constantly sinking. AS regards financial and
economical AFFAIRS In general America is the
opposite OF Europe. In Europe, and particu-
tion has become matter of course; so much
SO that We cannot help looking on the healthy
state of finances In tho United States as n mir
acle II State husbandry. Tho Americans
have reached this happy state OF affairs
through a stringent control of public affairs,
freedom OF private initiative, and protective
States of late years has been from 100000
GOO to S170,000,O0O. In 1881 the income was
s3C0,00OOOO, and IN 1852 $iO3, 1000, 900.
diminishing the public debt. From tho
European point OF view this looks like IN
impossible thing, and yet 1t is fact. The
n third of the whole income; as is the case
in Europe, but only n small portion of 1t.
The civil war impoverished the United States,
but since then they have had profound peace.
Tho States recovered, improved their hus.
bandry, encouraged industry and became rich.
A high tariff on imported goods largely in.
creased the income OF the United States and
served to encourage national industry. After a
whilo financial crisis came, and Eu-
ropean economists prophesied that on
account OF the high tariff the United States
would suffer stagnation OF trade and industry
and general financial ruin. But the Ameri-
cans did not mind tho European false prophets,
and declined TO receive cheap European goods
offered on the condition of free trade. The re-
suit is that now the Americans get $780,
100000 In customs duties, and besides are
able TO compete in trade and industry with the
foremost OF European countries.
An immense surplus OF income over expen-
ses enables the United States to lower tho
public debt progressively. In Europe public
debts grow as rapidly as mushrooms, while In
America they melt like snow. According to
the calculations OF the Secretary of the Treas
ury the United States Will pay It's public debt
in nine years, II the present prosperity con-
tinues.
