Great Indignation has been expressed
owing 10 the autocratic action Of an over

who suddenly arrested Nine. Celine Monta-
land of the Comedie Francaise the other
evening, as she was leaving the Louvre
shops. 1t appears that for some weeks past
the policemen in plain clothes who are ap-
pointed TO watch the streets in the interests
OF public morality have received orders to
pay particular attention to the gongs aud
comings of the suspicious females who
hauntthe Grauds Magasins and their vicin-
ity. The ordinary policemen in uniform,
who have no special training or experience
for this kind OF work, have also been in
structed to keep good lookout for men,
bers OF the frail SisterhOod, both of high
and low degree, and hence the well-knOwn
| actress of the Theatre Franchise was
pounced upon by the inexperienced minion
of the law.
Nine. MonUaland, who was dressed simply
| enough, had just sent her maid home before
her. with Louvre balloon for the actress
| child, and was walking quietly along the
| streets in the direction of the PalaIs Royal
where she lives, when the Dogberry in uni
| form seized her rudely by the arm and
| bluntly demanded her carte. The actress
thinking, Of course, that it was her visiting
| card which was required, pulled it out,
| after having told the policeman who She
! was. She soon, however, became aware
that her captOr looked upon her as ''sus-
! piciOus person." He merely smiled sar-
! donically, remarked that he knew Nine
Montelaud and was not going to be bam-
| boozled.
" You are an imposter!' said the man,
" and have watched your movements
! long time
Madam Montaland was then hustled
| away to the nearest police station, followed
! by large crowd of persons, many of whom
| had recognized the actress, and had pro-
tested loudly against the rudeness of the
| policeman. 1t was all to no purpose, how
ever. The Dogberry was stubborn, and
even refused to 20 to Madam Montaland's .
| house. At the station of the Rue Viledo
| the inspector in charge recognized the
actress and made thousand apologies.
| Strange to say, Legrand, the captor OF the
| lady, still maintained that he was
only fulfilling his duty, and that the
| actress had come under his observation by
! her actions Notwithstanding her unpleas-
ant adventures, Nine. Montalaud was able
to take her part in 'Margot" during the
| evening. when she received an 'ovation''
| from the public. NJ. Clareti her comrades
! of the Comedie, and NJ. LoZe, the Prefect
| of Police, also visited her i'll her room dur
! ing the evening, NJ. LoZe being profuSe in
! his apologies. The moral of the matter is,
of course, that it is extremely perilous for
! lady to walk alone and unaccompanied
through the streets of PariS.-Paris Corre-

Remarkable Experiences of the Natives
of India.
Weaving is a sedentary occupation, and
thus in harmony with Hindoo's predom-
inant inclination, according to mill. 1t re-
quires patience, of which he has an mex
haustible fund. 1t requires little bodily ex-
ertion, of which he is always exceedingly
sparing, and the finer the production the
more slender the force which he is called
upon to supply. But this is not
all. The weak and delicate frame of the
Hindoo is accompanied with an acuteness Of
external sense, particularly of touch, which
is altogether unrivaled, and the flexibility
of his fingers is equally remarkable. The
hand of the Hindoo, therefore, constitutes
an organ adapted to the finest operations OF
the loom in degree which is almost or
altogether peculiar to himself.-Dry Goods
