The COMMIT. wa.ltn.

The Counts wealth.
The Paris correspondent of The London
Times tells this romantic story, which reads
like chapter of ''Monte Cristo." Some
fancy that the Comte de Paris fortune is
small and that he needs power to enlarge it.
but this Is q mistake. He has considerable
are unknown even to his most intimate
friends. At least ten years ago man, since
dead, who bore high foreign title, wrote to
the Comte de Paris: ~ owe my immense
fortune to your grandfather, and wish to
show my gratitude to him by offering you
part of it, and thus enabling you to personify
the monarchy. Give-a trusty man five OF
your visiting cards. He will present them
to five stockholders named below, and what
dsstine for you will be handed to him."
This was done. The trusty man brought
back q cabful of bonds to bearer. I do not
know the precise sum, but the insurance
companies demanded 100. 900 francs for the
transport of the bonds to England. The
count thought this too much, and he had the
bonds put in tin boxes, which two trusty
men took to England and deposited at
Coutts' bank. The Comte de Paris is sup
posed to have 900 francs or 500, 900
francs a year, which would be inadequate for
the head of a dynasty, and thus, perhaps,
has risen the superstition that he is in haste
to increase his resources. But he is vastly
richer than ia supposed. Except the glory
of mounting the throne and restoring the
principle of hereditary succession, he lacks
nothing which can constitute earthly happi-
ness.
Two Kinds ofToast.
From the Pittsburg Bullstin.7
Every word has meaning, but because
people use the same words it does not follow
that they mean the came thing. The word
partridge, for example, means one bird in
New England and another bird at the south,
and the Significance of even so common q
term as toast appears to be subject to wide
fluctuations. On the second day out from
Fort Smith (says Colonel Marcy we halted
for the night at respectable looking farm
house. and my New York companion readily
obtained from the hostess promise to make
nice dish of toast and cup of tea. In due

| consisted of fried bacon floating in grease
some corn bread in the shape of hand gre
| nades, and quantity of glutinous, half
baked hot biscuit, neither of which seemed
calculated to tempt the appetite of the gen
tlemen from New York, who called for tn
toast. The landlady replied that she chad Il
on fryin', and she lowed it would soon be
DONE" Captain Mcclellan and myself ex
changed significant glances, but my FRIEND
from New York appeared not to appreciate
the joke, and inquired what she meant by
frying toast. She assured him it was al
right, as he would soon see for himself
| When it came on the table it appeared tina
she had taken the loaf, cut it in two parts

did not seem to relish this method of cook
ing, and explained to the hostess in detail
the proper method Of making toast. where
