Late Paris letter.


The cattle, sheep, vegetable and cheese show
at the Palais de pIndustrie is a great success
The day when President Grevy visited it a cheese
merchant cut off piece of Gruvere aud handed
it to him on the point of knife, asking him to
taste it. but this the President declined to do
although he accepted the dealers card. If Mr.
Grevy was as anxious for popularity as was Louis
Philippe in his day he would have accepted the
Sweitzer-case and declared it delicious. The cit
izen King used to sing the Marsellaise from the
balcony of the Tuileries whenever the prone
naders in the garden demanded it, He had a
nice voice, and was not averse to proving that
his monarchy was the incarnation of the best
possible republic. A crowd would gather under
the balcony. and begin to shout. s'Vive lie Roll
lican song would be called for, and during the
first months of bis reign he seldom refused it.
This good trait on his partbecame so well known
that the wits used TO insist that the Gavroches
of the capital used to be in wait for parties Of
tourists and promise to show them the King for
half franc.

Albany IN. " Letter.
To any one who reads the reports Of the Sem
ate proceedings without having been in the
chamber during the day the session will seem
uncommonly dull. But those who were present
and can testify to the amount of interest created
by the appearance Of a book agent ON the floor
will ever declare the day memorable one She
was about nineteen or twenty years old, and
wore a tailor-cut brown basque, skirt
of the Same material. a round brown
hat and a plume of red brown feath-
ers. A row of lustrous gilt buttons ran
from her throat to her waist. From between
two of these buttons long eadpencil protruded.
She had great earnest black eyes and cloud of
black frils curtaining her forehead. In her hand
was huge volume, copies of which are to be
sold on subscription. There are SENATOR'S who
did not see her or seem to know she was present
among them the dashing solon from Brooklyn,
DIR. Daggett, the dignifed leader OF the minori-
Mr.. Cullen. But others sought her company and
took turns, one after another, in questioning her
about the gorgeous volume in her dimpled hand.
She die not have to push her wares.
She sat there like queen, half reclining
on the red leather cushion of an ornate rose
wood seat receiving homage 1t was pretty
spectacle, that of this exquisitely shaped and
laughing girl listening to the wit, the wisdom
and the compliments of these gray haired thin
haired or haired notat-all pillars OF the State,
one of whom-a bachelor Of course-said after
wards that every of these-meaning every
one of the bachelors-had endeavored to obtain
her company at the theater or in sleigh ride, or
way or another, and that every one had failed.
To all she was equally gracious but to each she
insisted that she had no desire for any other
proof of their regards than that they should pur-
chase copy of her book.

Parting Lovers.

Winding upward rose slender vine tree,
Winding upward round the fort of Buda.
All. no vine tree was it winding upwards
But loving maiden round her lover!
Early had the twain begun their loving,
Loving ever since their days of childhood,
Now they had to say farewell forever.
To the maiden thus the STRIPPING murmured:
''Three broad rivers. maiden, run before thee;
Nigh the third garden green is growing;
In the garden blooms tree of roses:
From that rose-tree pluck rose o maiden,
Lay it near thy heart. within thy bosom:
Faster than the rose leaves fade within it,
Faster fades my heart for thee, beloved"
To the STRIPPING thus the maiden answered:
''Three high mountains, youth. arise before thee
From the third there flows quiet fountain;
Nigh the fountain lies rock of marble;
On marble stands silver chace;
In the silver chalice lies snowflake.
Bear away the snowflake from the beaker,
Lay it near thy heart, upon thy bosom:
Faster than the fake of snow dissolveth,
Faster melts my heart for thee, beloved!'

An able review in the New York Sun, Of Gen.

observation on General Lew Wallace's march:
Military critics will scarcely agree with Gen

Wallace had it in mind to do. Had he carried
out even this project, and crossed Owl Creek

left flank and rear of the confederate army,
where, as above stated he was expected, anil
where he might have inflicted irreparable injury

The Newest and Severest Charge Against

Cleveland Leader.
A stylshly-dressed young lady whose features
were concealed by thick veil, entered the down
town Office of a prominent physician yesterday
afternoon, and. with some show of nervousness,
requested an audience with him. The doctor led
the way to his private Office, and the fair patient
removed her veil, remarking as she did so, Il
wish you would tell me what is the matter with
my face"
In the dimly lighted room the physician was
unable to discover that anything was wrong.
Stepping to the window, the lady said, pointing
to the roguish dimples that nature had placed on
cheeks and chin. and the little creases about the
corners of her eyes: do you see thatg My face
looks as though | had been working in coal
mine" Closer inspection showed the physician
that the dmpes and creases, as we'll as the
larger pores in the ladys face, were filled with
dark, grimy substance. Il have scrubbed and
worked at that until l am tired, but cannot re-
move it. am satisfied it is not dirt" she con-
tinued, evidently judging from the physicians
look that he was about to tell her to take a
bath.

smile; 1.-THE roller rink again"
What do on meanP she asked in troubled
tone.
''Nothing but rollerrink dust That is all.
1t is nothing serious. Try soap and water
again, and use this solution before retiring at
night, and your complexion will be all right
again."
'Oh, l am so glad" the lady remarked, as she
adjusted her veil and departed.
That is the latest feature of the rollerskat
leg craze" remarked the physician to reporter
who had overheard the conve rsation with some
amusement. THAT is the second lady who has
been to see me with a similar complaint within
a week"
tWhat is the cause of it2r
"Why, you see, the dust that rises from the
floor of the rink is very fine and penetrating
perspiration it at once finds it's way into the
pores"

Hope and Faith.

Hope is the scented flower
Which, in the breast implanted
When winds have swept the bosom's bower
Still blossoms like thing enchanted
Lifes sweet inheritance and dover.
Faith is the steady spark
For journeying moftals lighted
Still beaming starlike through the dark
On high where erst by sorrow sighted
And still where lifted eyes may mark.

A FLOWING ELL.
A Vein Of Water Struck at Twenty
Five Feet Which Flows Over
the Surface. Stronger
Vein to be Prospecteu
For LmMe lately.

We are glad to note that Mr.. 0. E.
Spear is meeting with success in his
work of drilling wells at this place.
He was induced by Mr.. Gibson to
come from Minneapolis to- sink ar
te ian wells in this part of Montana
He was occupied about two weeks in
sinking wells on the townsite for
household purposes; but a few days
ago he moved his machinery to the
slope at the southerly approach to the
town. and commenced work in earnest
to obtain, if possible, a flowing well.
At depth Of less than thirty feet he
struck strong vein of water, which
rose Immediately to the surface and
discharged itself over the prairie,
whore it is now running. This is q
true flowing well, and though not OF
such capacity as Mr.. Spear expects to
obtain, it demonstrates the existence
Of large veins of water near the sur
face, and on elevated lands. He will
now move his machinery to another
spot on the table land, and his further
progress will be watched with addl-
t;;onal interest.

ABOUT MONTANA.
The Diversified Resources of the Ter
ritory. The Misapprehension
as to the clin ate.

It is about sunny Montana that I
wish most particularly to write in this
letter. Verify, this is the Earadise of
the sportsman, and the finest stock
country in the United States.
As to game, the noble elk, the grand
moose, deer of all varieties, mountain
sheep, and wild fowl are SO plentiful
that some of the zest OF hunting" IS
lost. as you can not well avoid finding
it. It is no misnomer to call Montana
the land of sunshine. In 1883, the
meteorological summary of the wealth
er, etc, at Helena, for the year, shows
129 clear days, 162 fair days, and "a
cloudy days. Rainfall, IL inches;
mean temperature, 42.7. The highest
temperature was June 29th, "a deg;
lowest, January 18th, "a below zero.
There are but few cold days in
Montana. Occasionally billiards
come in January and February, last
ing three days, and then the Chinook
wind from the Pacific coast comes
sweeping through the passes and can
yons of the Rocky Mountains, the
snow disappearing ike magic, leaving
no trace of it in mud, as in the east,
and restoring the air to an Italian
temperature.
There is a widespread misappre-
hension as to the climate of Montana,
it being SO far northwest that many
people look upon it as an Arctic re-
gion, not considering the comparative
low altitude of the Territory and its
position on the western divide of the
Rocky Mountains, subject to the
warm winds from the Pacific ocean.
And even with the thermometer TWEEN
ty below. the climate Of Montana is
immensely more comfortable and
healthful than at zero anywhere cast
of the Rockies. The air is dry, pure
and laden with health.
No malaria here. except that which
comes from poor whisky.
The average altitude of the valleys
and plains of Montana is much lower

Montana Horse Industry.

The horse industry of this territory
is vet in its infancy, but is rapidly
coming to the front. and in 4 few years
at most, Montana horse flesh will
prove formidable rival to Americas
favorite Kentucky horses. An ex-
change says: ''It required three OF
four years to convince the cattle grow
ers of Montana that their beef PRO
ducts could be marketed in the east,
but the indications are that horsemen
will not be slow in being brought to
realize this fact. It has now. been
scarcely twelve months since the first
carload of horses went forward, yet
we fpd that there has already been
more horses forwarded this way east

pie. In Sand Coulee the amount Of
coal is pretty well understood by the
general public; but possibly the iron

is underlaid with two veins of chalyb-

It consists of carbonate Of iron with
clays. and when broken has grey,

iron it contains, except its weight.
This ironstone is in two bands OF lay
Gers overtopping and underlying a soft,
IAeyish shale. In England this kind
sof ironstone is the principal source of
the,supply of pig iron.
As regards the limestone, the guam
ty is unlimited, and is Of the finest
description, being the sub-carbonifer-
Gus limestone and remarkably free
from lead and other impure constitu-
ents so often present in mountainous
regions In several places in Sand
Coulee the cliffs are precipitous and
the limestone can seen 80 to 10 feet
thick at the base, superimposed by the
coal measures containing the iron
bands and the coal in their regular
order. The whole can be seen at a
glance-truly marvellous combina-
ton, There is the iron, the lime to
fux it, and also the coal to melt it
with. The belt range of mountains
