Paris Oysters.

It always made me mad to see
a Frenchman sit down to plate Of raw
French oysters-for when he did so he
did it with an air which seemed to de-
clare that of all countries none save
France cculd raise an oyster, and none
save Frenchmen knew how to eat an
oyster. Yet the poor creatures, in all
their self-conceit, sat thus before a plate
Of thin, coppery bivalves with naught Of
condiment before them, save salt, pep
per and vinegar. And I was obliged
to gaze on all this Ignorant pomposity,
as to the oyster, with visions before my
eyes of the palatial oyster saloons in
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington, where human culinary skill
has re":hed It's highest flight in dealing
with - oyster; and the "roast," pan
roast" fried" "fried in crumbs. J"
sc fried in batter" "plain stew ''box
stew, " Boston stew" and "broi." all
attest to the range and scope Of Ameri-
can ingenuity in dealing with the king of
bivalves. And to regard these conceited
Frenchmen looking as if they had
reached the acme of human perfection
in dealing with the oyster, when entirely
ignorant of Americas triumph in oyster
cooking, and I unable to beat the
vestige of an idea into their vainglorious
brainsi Paris letter.

New YORK, April 3.-The attraction on
Wall street to-day was Northwestern com
mon. II opened at 13415 and advanced
with hardly reaction to 1863. It was
very active and frightened up the situa-
ton considerably. The preferred did even
better, selling at 154, though the business
conferred in the common. Rochester
Pittsburg occupied the second place with
a rise to 22775. During the afternoon
Northwestern was purchased in large
amounts and touched 1881. One report
attributed the improvement to a state
ment that the surplus in the hands of the
treasurer was about $5,000,00O and would
warrant the payment of something
extra in the way of dividend. st. Paul
was firm and sold at par. President Mitch
ell is credited with being bull on the
property. The result of the Missouri pa
ciffc meeting was reelection iof the old
board. Oregon Transcontinental and Del
aware d Lackawanna, with the stocks
mentioned above, were the favorites all
day, though nearly all look much better
than they did last evening. The
close was decidedly buoyant,
quite contrast from that of
yesterday. Money loaned at 10 per cent.
1t is stated on very good authority that
Lee, Higgerson & Co. sold 10000 shares of
Oregon Transcontinental last Thursday and
Friday. 1t is assumed that such sale
would not have been made without good
reason therefor. Bulls on the property
say that the statement OF the assets of
the Oregon TrauscontinentaI, soon to be
made public, will show holdings of Oregon
Navigation, Northern Pacific common,
Northern Pacific preferred and Transcon-
tinental, amounting in par value to about
S57. 600 900.
