A considerable number of public men have re

Webster was rendered and received for many
years the earnings of 100000 which was put at
interest for his benefit by his friends in and
about Boston. Had not this provision of So 900
a year been made Webster would have retired
from the Senate, for he declared he would not
give his life to his country for IS per day.
''Tom" Corwin had his debts paid once at
least by his friends; He never laid
up anything while holding federal offices.
He retired from the office of Secretary
of the Treasury comparatively poor. The mort
gage on Corwin's homestead was once taken up
by his political friends. Henry Clay had the
same service rendered him on the part
of his political friends. He had been for a
whole generation in Congress. He sometimes
lived beyond his means. He was hospitable and
even generous. He had little tact in managing
his private affairs His homestead at Ashland
was mortgaged and would probably have been
foreclosed had not his Wing friends, just after
his defeat for the Presidency in 1874, stepped in
and privately Cancelled the mortgage. Thomas
Benton thirty years in Congress. Yet in
all that time he never became rich, nor did he
improve any of the opportunities for making
money while holding federal office.

An Indiana Lady Abroad.

Lucy Hooper's Paris Letter.
The last days of lent have arrived, and Paris
is indulging in sackcloth and ashes to that mild
extent wherewith the gay inhabitants of the
gayest city in the world perform their peniten-
tal duties. There is nothing going on in social
circles except an occasional dinner party. One
of the prettiest entertainments of this kind that
has taken place this season was given last week
by Mr.. and Mrs. Diaz Albertini, the brother in
law and sister of Mrs. r. r. Hit, the wife of
the representative from Illinois, As Miss Mary
Reynolds Mime. Albertini) was the ac-
knowledged belle of the American colony
under the ministership of General Noyes,
when her accomplished brother-in- law
was the first secretary of the Paris
legation, she has lost nothing of her fascina-
ton and her delicate flower like loveliness, and
is as winsome dame as she formerly was o
demoiselle. She has lately taken possession of
her new Partisan home, a charming suite of
rooms in one of the handsome new buildings on
the Avenue du Bots de Boulogne near the pal
ace of the Duke dAumale At her recent din
ner party she wore an exquisite toilette in white
satin, and in white tulle dotted with seed pearls
and trimmed with pearl fringes, The floral dec
orations of the table were very unique and strik
ing, the flowers being all cut with long stems
and arranged in graceful groups and not in com
pact masses. Then there were four pyramids
composed of violets and strawberries that de-
lighted the eyes and nose before the fruit made
its appeal to the palate.

ment of the obligations which she considers all

means of doing so.
Miss Maude Howe has written new novel

teral for the novelist
Rowells american Newspaper Directory, y
now in press, will show that the newspapers
and periodicals of all kinds at present issued in
the United States and Canada reach a grand
total of -, 4O2. This is a net gain of precisely
1000 during the last twelve months, and eXhib-
its an increase of s, 618 over the total number
published just ten years since.
Mrs. VIM s. Jackson Oh. H has recently
completed the first long story she has ever writ
southern California, and the heroine gives her
name to the book-"Ramona." The incidents
are largely historical, and the peculiar condi-
lions of the early settlement of the country by
Americans furnish elements Of great pathetic
and dramatic interest.
The biography of George Eliot by her hus-
band, Mr.. Cross, will be based in the main upon
