Mr.. Ep1roR: This vicinity is in quite
a prosperous condition. People around
about here are now progressing in the
right direction in farming operations.
Inotice that there have been great denl of
small grain sown i'll this section. More
than has been heretofore: Farmers in
this stction are going in for cotton ex-
tensively this ysar. Not using so much
guano, but generally compost made up
of home inSrodionte, and I hear of soy
eral of our farmers who are not going to
use nothing much but acids. Wheat
and oats were considerably damaged by
the continued cold weather. The pref
ent prospect for small grain is gloomy.
rs the general opinion that there will
not he much more than half crop of
oats made. Rtost all the farmers about
hcre have got most of their fertilizers in
and most of them are ready to plant
cotton: II.

Monte Christie.

Tourists used to go from St. Germain
to see Monte Christie. the architectural
folly of old Dumas, which he built at a
cost of 100000 francs. and sold to get
rid of an urgent creditor for $4,000
francs. 1t was an asylum in his time
for all the masterless dogs in the neigh
borhood, and the grounds were open
to anybody who felt tempted to use
them as promenade. The inhabitants
of his menagerie, with whom he was
on companionable terms, were almost
human in their intelligence. Jugartha,
a vulture which he bought in Algeria
for ten francs, and brought thence in
anti-railway times to Monte Christie, at
an expense of $4,000 francs. was the
tyrant, and. to some extent the school
master, OF Dumas's private Zoo All
this is changed now. There is high,
wall round the premises, with broken
ends of bottles stuck in the mortar ON
the summit. A ferocious dog menaces
all those who try to peep in through
the bars of the gate. If the ghost of
Dumas haunts the domain he created.
how it must suffer in the presence Of
this Cerberus!-L01adon Times.

Japanese Women.

Pretty as she is on a-fictured IAN q
Japanese woman-is far more satisfying
to the aesthetic soul as she patters
along, alive. on her wooden clogs or
straw sandals. The poorest woman in
her single, cheap, cotton gown or
kimono is as much picture as her
richer sister in silk and Grape. With
Their heads elaborately dressed, and
folds of gay Grape or glittering hair
pin thrust in the smooth loops of blue
black ha'r, they seem always gala
array, and, rain or shine, never cover
those elaborate coiffures with anything
more than a paper umbrella. Below
that the loose dress opening in a point
nearly to the waist, has lining and
folds of gayer grapes and silks laid in
side, and the glory of Che toilet cul-
inmates with the broad obi or sash.
The obs of striped and figured grapes,
brocades and silks are lined with
stiffiy-starched cloth, wound round and
