In AIgiers.

From the San Francisco Chronicle
The negroes are curlOusly enough
white-washers as in America, an occu-
patton to which they take kindly from
contrast of color or some other mys-
tic reason. The Spaniards are gener-
ally Industrious, but for some I'M
known cause, unless it is merely the
jealousy Of competing workmen, much
disliked by the French. They are
masons, quarrymen, terrace makers
and miners. Those in easy circum-
stances have become farmers, and
few are numbered among the large
landed proprietors. The Italians,
who are nearly all from Sardinia, Or
the maritime provinces Of Italy, are
market gardeners, fishermen or follow
the trades Of mason, plasterer, paint
er and potter. The similarity Of eli
mate renders the change of residence
of the Maltese to Algiers easy and nat
ural. They become small dealers,
keepers of restaurants and wine
houses, porters or carmen, and some
times small land holders. German
and Swiss immigrants at once become
farmers. Immigrants of all classes
are obliged to learn French. Natur-
alization is common. Children of all
nationalities attend the communal
schools and lyceums, and the process
Of assimilation of all these diverse ele-
ments into one nation, thought not
SO rapid as in America, is constant
and certain. The young man born in
Algiers long since ceased to be a novel
ty. He grows up, receives a good edu-
cation, serves his military term in
France enters into thepublic service, or,
either in France, Cochin, China or AL
giers, follows the trade or occupation
for which his training or literary attain
ments have fitted him. He is from
his birth more cosmopolitan than his
compatriots born and reared in
France, partly because born a colo
mist, and partly because his surround
ings are more cosmopolitan, and a
ST. ain offoreign blood may be mingled
with that purely Gallo which trickles
through his veins.

Curious Death Of a Child.
From the London Times.

A little boy named Bourg, living
with his uncle and aunt in the Rue de
la Chapelle, and treated by them, es-
pecially since his fathers recent death,
as an adopted child, mysteriously dis
appeared this day week. He was play
ing in the street in the afternoon.
His aunt took him an apple and a
bit of bread, and nothing more was
seen of him. Yesterday neighbor re-
marked that q chest which had long
stood empty in shed at the end of a
court had been moved and placed up
right against a cartWheel. He began
to restore it to it's horizontal position,
when he was surprised to find it heavy,
and on opening it found the body
of the missing child. There were no
signs of violence, and post-mortem
examination to-day has shown that
death was caused by suffocation.
1t is supposed that the child was
playing "hide and SEEK" and that he
either got in or was pushed into the
chest by his playfellows. One of these,
it is thought, must have sat on the
lid, and the boys, on finding the child
suffOcated, must have agreed to keep
the matter secret. The changing of
the position of the chest is attributed
to some men who had been repaving
the court, and who, perhaps, paid no
attention to it's weight. The song of
"The Mistletoe Bough" would thus
seem to have had remote parallel.

Pacific Coast Millionaires.

From the Louisville Courier-J ournal.l
81 have made some big DEALS" says
Lucky Baldwin. "In 1876 l cleared
81, 100000 at one time out of the
Ophir mine, at Virginia City, New. I
had all the other dealers on the
coast and the California Bank against
me, but I outwitted them and broke
the bank, or rather that was what led
to it's break. By the way, the history
of that bank has been rather remark
able. 1t broke in 1776 for $14,OOO,-
900, but it paid off everything and its
stock is now worth double the par
value. When I had the bank and it's
friends outwitted I could have made
$18, 100000. Somebody might have
shot me, but still I could have done
it,"
In this capacity as millionaire Mr..
Baldwin has, of course, rubbed against
the other millionaires of the Pacific
coast and is intimately acquainted
with them all. He says that the rail
road men are the richest of the crowd.
Mackay made his fortune out of
mines, and he and Baldwin have
crawled through many miles of tunnel
together. Mr.. Baldwin puts his wealth
at $2O,OOO,OOO and that of Flood
and O'Bren at $1O,OOO,OOO each.
Fairs he estimates at $1O,OOO,OOO.
The railroad people go above that.
The estate of Mrs. Mark Hopkins, he
says, is worth over $3O,OOO,OOO and
that of Croker about $4O,OOO,OOO.
Leland Stanford is also worth $40
900, 1000. San Francisco Mr.. Baldwin
estimates to be the richest city in the
world in proportion to it's population.
There are plenty of millionaires there
whom one has never heard of.

A ROBE worn by the Queen of Italy
shows that ladies in that country can
hardly make enough of the craze for
waistcoats. She wears what is STYLED
a "Hindoo" basque-three vests, one
above another, forming single cor
sage. The under one is in cuirass
shape, richly bead embroidered, and
buttoning close to the neck with lew
eled fastenings. The second one is
shorter everywhere, and does not
quite meet in front, the curve being
outlined with a delicate fringe of gold.
The outer one is a short, rounded
zouave, or Ralero jacket, minus any
sleeves; this also richly embroidered
and made of velvet. Inpoint of color
the three basques are alike, but of dis
tinct shades, softly harmonizing. In
the matter of fabric, the inner waist
coats are of light, silken materials.

A MESSENGER.
BY NATALIE BRANDT.

One year to-day
| sent away
A ship of cloud in twilight gray;
1t laden grew
With love so true
For q saint above that once knew.
1t bore prayer
High up in air,
And sailed away through twilight there;
With anxious eyes
watched it rise
Against the gleam OF the Western skies.
And now in gee,
Across the sea,
That ship of cloud comes back to me;
IN twilight gray,
1t sails this way,
Along the lost track of the yesterday.
And seems to bear
Upon the air
An answer to my earnest prayer;
And floats so near
/ almost fear
To let my deeper thoughts appear.
I can but feel
For woe or veal,
No mortal fingers grasp the wheel,
But like the dove
= From far above,
Its pilot is the God of Love.
OF autumn days
Around its PROV soft shadows raise;
While tender eyes
From distant skies
/ know look down from Paradise.
Its message thrills
While perfumes fills
The enchanted air from off the hills,
And bears along
A breath of song
Which mountain PcnaS would nrOlOnp
And shadows play
About it's way,
As twilight fades to deeper gray,
Till sails so white
In SunSet-light
Have disappeared within the night.
The cloud sailed by
So still and high,
No one would dream | spoke the sky;
But tell to thee
That DER the sea
4 message came from saint to me.

SIR JAMES EARLE first called atten.
ton to the value of crushed ice in the
case of burns and scalds. After being
reduced by crushing or scraping finely
the ice is mixed with fresh lard into a
paste, which is put into a thin cam
brio bag, and applied to the part af-
fected The ice should be as drv AS
possible before putting into this bag.
This remedy is said to Danish all pain
until the mixture has so far melted
that fresh dressing is necessary.

OLD-NOT VENERABLE.
BY GEORGE II. COOMER.

All me it is a sight for saddest teaEs
To see old age unworthy Of itsyea
Unworthy to be old-who thus would stand,
AS 'twere a stranger III that sunset land?
With locks all whitened by the lapse of time,
Should not man breathe an atmosphere sub
lime?
Should one, while fast his aeeting sands are told,
Grow old, yet grow not veterably old?

The Grant family returned from New York
TO Mt. MacGregor on Monday. Mrs. Grant
herself remained at the COTTAGE her strength
not being sufficient to endure the strain and
excitement of the final ceremonies. She ia
now recovering.
All other suggestions as to the disposition
of the funeral car having been dismissed as
either impracticable or In bad taste, it was
decided to break II up. On the way from
the tomb numerous relic hunters mutilated it
as much Rs they could. What was left of it
was taken to Oornell's iron yard, where it was
dismantled. The original cost OF the car was
something over $500.
Washington despatch says that intimate
friends Of Gen. Grant, including former
members of his cabinet and some of his
trusted advisers, who attended the Grant
funeral, are agreed that the Riverside drive
is not suitable place for burial. They found
that those who held the nearest relations TO
Gen. Grant, from all sections of the country,
are Of the same opinion. Some of them 90
80 far as TO say that choice seems to have
been inspired by those who we're engaged ia
q real estate speculation Riverside park, in
fact, Ia not park, but roadway used chiefly
for fast driving
The New York World says the bills of Drs
Douglas and Shrady for attendance upon
Gen. Grant were 81, 900 each, and that they
have been paid from fund raised for that
purpose by George Jones of the New York
Times and q few others. Another account
says that no bills have been rendered and
that the only money paid the doctors thus far
is a check for $1,000 which Gen. Grant him
self endorsed over to DR.. Douglas few days
before his death.

The Boston Herald makes the presence OF
ex-Pr[sident Hayes at Gen. Grants funeral
the occasion for paying deserved tribute to
the character and public services of a man
who stands head and shoulders above the
men whose custom II is to traduce and try TO
belittle him
An unobtrusive figure in the procession
that followed the remains Of President Grant
to the grave on Saturday was that or the on
ly living man who had, like himself, held a
full term of office in the. American presiden.
cy. That man was his own successor in of
foe; like himself he had been q general in
the armies of the republic during the war of
the rebellion; like himself he had been
borne by the Republican party into the pres.
idency like himself he had returned to pri-
vate life when his term of service was ended
President Hayes had not been conspicuous in
the public eye since that period. His tastes
are quiet his manner has always been q
modest one. But he is none the less remem-
bered by the nation, and he may well rest his
fame with II on the acts Of his administrA-
ton. He gathered about him one Of
the best cabinets, both In ability and In purity.
None OF its acts failed 10 be approved by the
better sentiment of the country-none, in
deed, has been seriously questioned at any
time. The Vexed southern question was set
tied under It troops were withdrawn and
peace was restored to the southern section.
There was no charge of corruption in his
cabinet, or among his important officers in
any section Of the country. The general
feeling was Of fair dealing In all its acts. and
the Virulenoe Of party spirit was essentially
assuaged while II was In power. The Presi-
dent had modestly announced his determina-
ton not to be a candidate for realization He
held 10 1t firmly when his term Of office was
about TO expire. He left behind him the rec
ord Of an administration pure in It's Atmos-
phere and clean in It's record. Since he re-
tired from the presidency Mr.. Hayes has
done nothing to invite attack It may be the
fashion Of the hour 10 depreoiAte him. 1t will
not be the verdict of history.
