The Comte de Parts,

The London Neaos publishes a letter from a correspondent in Cannes describing con- versation with the Compte de Paris, and giv- ing number of particulars about the Prince himself and his way of life The Comte's villa is without architectural pretensions there is no sign anywhere of luxurious hAb- it's ssThe morning room, into which the visitor is ushered, is spacious, and ightOd up by a wide bew-window. On entering, one is struck with the sea view. Although the Mediterranean is some distance away, it ap- pears as if close to the house. Louis Quinze chairs and tables are upholstered in crimson brocade. The tables are Japanese and Eng fish. A long rectangular one in the middle supports 8 litter of journals and reviews. There is not reading room in Paris in which there are so many. 50 many journals are received in this house, the Oomtesse dc Par is observes with sigh. They How in from every centre of political and intellectual activity. The Cemte de Paris is one of the greatest newspaper readers of his time. Nobody in France is better posted up about home and foreign affairs. In his choice of gazettes and periodical magazines I should say he is unprejudiced. A list of those at which glanced in the drawing room of the Villa St. Jean would astonish many Rspubi- cans The Prince is eontOmPlatiVs and stu dious, I do not believe that he is a conspiring pretender but he was brought up with the hope of one day being 8 con- stitutional monarch. l am inclined to think that, consciously or unconsciously, he chngs to that hope and tries to be worthy of dis
 charging the highest functions in the State.
 The Comte de Paris is forty four years old, but, being fresh complexioned and slender, does not lock his age. There is nothing of the Bourbon in the outer man.
 A high and unwrinklsd forehead shows calm intellect. There is nothing
 however, in the face that indicates powerful cerebration. In a country like England or Belgium, where the crown is s,regularly trans mitted according to the law of primogsni- ture, the Cemte de Paris would have made an excellent constitutional king and have been as such distinguished character. But he is not the man to restore either the ancient or the bourgeois monarchy in France, or, if
 either wore set up again by his friends, to maintain it against the democratic forces which three revolutions, steam, teleRraphy, and the newspaper, have unloosed. As des- pot he would be failure, because he is too just and gentle to make an oppressive use of force and too honest to govern by intrigue ''

Smelt Fishing on Lake ChampIafn. ICorrasnondanca of TrnH Tinaa

The lake at Burlington has just closed in, and the smelt fishers have moved their little huts on runners out to the accustomed grounds. Modern improvements have made this sport one of the most luxurious imagin
 able. Instead of knesling in the cold wind beside 8 constantly freezing hole in the ice, the fisherman now sits at his ease in his neat little movable house, warmed by stove, and keeps watch of two or three lines let down through holes in the floor and corresponding holes Tn the ice. He smokes and reflects, or talks with companion, and is as comforta- ble as the millionaire before his grate of glowing sea-coal. Besides being lazy amuss- ment, smelt fishing is a very profitable em- ployment, as the fish are exceedingly tooth- some and bring good price in the focal markets. An attentive and persistent fisher man will make as much out of his day's snort as 8 laborer who comes home sore and stiff at night with his hard earned pittance. The genius who sits on his bench and manipulates the little lines is usually jolly, hospitable sort of fellow, and is perfectly willing that the blue-nozed skater should occasionally permits him to handle one of the lines for while. If he should chance to bring young lady companion with him the ancient fisher man becomes a model of gallantry. He lays his black pipe under the stove, resigns his warm seat to the fair one, and places all pis- catorial resources at her command It is pleasant to note the immense satisfaction with which he resigns to her the line upon which he has just detected a timid nibble, and when following his directions, she hooks the unhappy fish, draws it up through the ice with little scream of mingled terror and delight, his eyes shine with spprobation and pleasure, and he feels as proud as did the Canadian woodsman who initiated the Prin- cess Louise into the mysteEiss of salmon fish

! Miss Buchanan, once rallying

A Miss Buchanan, once rallying 8 brave soldier on his courage, said ':Now. Captain Johnson, do you really mean to tell me you can walk up to the cannon's mouth without fear?" 'Yes," was the prompt re- ply, tor Buchanan's either," and he did it. It may be safely assumed that the lady, to whom the gallant captain thus paid his respects, hadn't the catarrh. This malady is as loathsome as it is painful. Its cure has heretofore been considered impossible. Ely's Cream Balm, however, never fails to cure. MT. Nathan Fegley, with E. F. Montz, merchant, Wilkes barre, Pa, says: ''Pve had catarrh for 15 years. Ely's Cream Balm has opened my nostrils and reduced the inflammation. My eyes, too, can stand strong light" This balm is a marvel of fragrance and curative powers,-is not liquid or snuff, and is easily applied feb16 eod&2w

Trial of EverIt's New Automatic
 Coupler.

Coupler.
 The first trial of Everit's new automatic double connecting car coupling was made on Saturday on cars of the New Haven and Northampton railroad company in front of their car shops. There was quite numerous attendance of spectators and railroad officials. The exhibition was entirely satisfactory and is thus described; Though the couplings were on cars of different height it made no difference with their behavior, and all that they seemed to require was to be let alone to do their work perfectly, being entirely auto matic in their connection. The uncoupling process is said to be more simple and easy of operation than that of any coupling yet in vented, and is done by pulling chain lead ing from the lever to the top or platform of car. This coupling is styled the New Era, with the expectation that 1t will cause new departure in the mode of coupling freight cars, and it is believed to meet all the re- quirements that arise in railroad service, and can be coupled with any of the old style of couplers in use. It is also very strong and durable, and its cost but very little exceeds those in general use The invention is 8 model of simplicity, both in it's construction and it's operation, and can be made ready for attaching to cars in few minutes after the castings leave the foundry, no skilled labor being required.
 Some of the couplers of MT. EVsrit's pre- vious invention, and working on essentially the same principle, have been in success full use for two years. The improvement on this new one is that it makes double con- nection, thereby affording double security and strength; it is more readily attached to old couplings and there are no parts that can be taken out and lost. The importance of this last item is apparent in the fact that the loss of links and pins from couplings now in use amounts on some roads to more than $50, ,00O year.
 It is estimated that in the United States 8 daily average of fifty men are either killed or crippled while coupling freight cars, all of whom might be saved if this invention was in general use.

The Gibbs Case.

The colored boy John H. Gibbs, arrested for an attempt at burglary at the house Of Rev. Mr. StiAer short time ago, was ident1- fled in the City court Saturday by Mrs. Phil brick as the person who criminally assaulted her October 22d. Mrs. Philbrick is mar ried lady living on South Front street, Fair Haven. The Ward boy, who was compan- ion of Gibbs, has revealed monstrous scheme which had been devised by Gibbs, who had bought chloroform for the purpose of perpetrating worse offence than burglary at the house of Rev. Dr. Stifer. This story was confirmed by the finding of the bottle Of chloroform where Gibbs had thrown it when arrested after breaking window at Rev. pr. Stifer's house, and also by tracing it's pur- chase. To-day Detective Brewer is to take both Gibbs and Ward to Fair Haven for the purpose of getting further evidence in the matter of the assault on Mrs. Philbrick. There are five or six cases against Gibbs, none of which have yet been passed upon by the court. Tuesday the trial of Gibbs and Ward will be resumed.
