devotion OF the most exclusive set in New York
although she is not far from the dead line of
forty. Still delicate, slender, with a matchless
refinement of complexion and expression,
always quietly dressed, wearing knot OF white
violets or forced spring flowers in mid-winter,
men turn to gaze after her with eyes which say.

rare physique combines the unbroken nerve

FAIR AND FORTY.
One OF the prettest women in New York is
Miss Constance Schaak, who outdoes all the
buds in beauty at balls or on the street What
will you have?" pouted one of them enviously.
''She has had nearly forty years to grow per-
feet in" which was very we'll for little girl
and a beginner. After one of the great balls at
Delmonico's ask who was the prettiest woman.
and tie answer from man woman will be,
Miss Schaak was there. How do you expect
me to remember any body else with that rose of
q creature abo1t?"
Says the shrewdest observer of METROPOLITAN
society, New York women marry later than
any other women in this country,-not much
under thirty. They certainly are more charm
ing than the buds, of whom the saying goes
In the first season they good to look at; in
the second good to dance with; in the third

girls from the school room, only to have their
husbands tire of them before they fade at

FRENCH PEASANTS.
The Real Source OF the Strength and

Prosperity of France.
From the Forum
The life led by a comfortable English or
American farmer would represent wicked
waste and shameful indulgence to a much
richer French peasant. l myself know
laborer on wages of less than twenty sh1ll-
ings week who by thrift has bought ten
acres of the magnificent garden land
between FontaineDleau and the Seine,
worth many thousand pounds on which
grow all kinds of fruit and vegeta-
bles and the famous dessert grapes: vet
who, with all his wealth and abundance,
denies himself and his Two children meat
on Sundays, and even drink of the wine
which he grows and makes for the market,
says Frederick Harrison in the Forum. |
know a pleasant family in Normandy,
worth in houses gardens and farms at least
100000 francs, who will live on the oats
cast out as refuse by their own dodgers.
while the wife and mother hires herself out
as scullion for 2 francs a day. The
penuriousness of the French peasant is to
English eyes thug savage, bestial and
maniacal.
The French peasant has great virtues,
but he has the defects of his virtues. aud
his home life is far from idyllic. He is la
borious. shrewd, enduring, frugal, self-re-
manu-, sODti, uOHeSu, anu capable OF intense
self-control, for distant reward: but that
reward is property in land, in pursuit of
WHICH he may become as pitiless as blood
hound. He is not chaste Gndeed, he is
often lecherous), but he relentlessly keeps
down the population, and can hardly bring
himself to rear two children. To give
these two children heritage he will infiict
great hardships on them, and on all others
whom he controls. He has an intense
passion for his own immediate locality, but
be loves his own commune, and still more
his own terre, better than he loves France.
He is intelligent, but he is not nearly SO well
educated as the Swiss, or the German or
the Hollander. Heis able to bear suffering
without murmur; but he has none of that
| imperturbable courage which Eugishmen
and Americans show in a thousand new
situations. He is shrewd and far-seeing
and tough hand il a bargain but he has
none of the inventive audac ty of the Ameri-
can citizen. He is self-reliant, but too
cautious to trust himself in a new
| field. He is independent, but with
out the proud dignity of the Span
| ish peasant. He has love for the gay, the
beautiful and the graceful, which, impaired
with that of the Englishman, is the sense of
art, though he has nothing of the charm of
! the Italian, or of the musical genius Of the
| German. If France is strong, the backbone
| of her strength is found in the marvellous
industry and thrift of her peasantry. And
| If her peasantry are industrious and thrifty,
| it is because the revolution of 1889 has Sc
cured to them position more free and in
dependent than that presented by any
monarchial country on the continent of

GRIFFIN, March 14.-An article appeared
in this mornings Telegraph which strikes a
tender chord at Griffin. 1t is in reference to
better mail facilities between Macon and
the east over the Central railroad system
connecting with Atlanta. The taking off
of the train reaching here, bound for At
lanta, at o'clock in the afternoon, is the
cause of all the trouble. An effort has Just
been made by the Macon Board of Trade
to have the old schedule resumed, but with
out success. Manager Gabbett does not think
his road has sufficient stock to resume its
old schedule of train No. l.
Nowhere along the line is this inconven-
fence felt more tran at this point The
NEWS correspondent is free to say that if
more consideration is not shown the city by
the Central railroad the earnest efforts of
the Georgia Midland viii secure even a
larger share of Griffin's immense freight
business than it now has.
The stock for the new compress had all
been subscribed and committee was out
all day yesterday looking at sites. After
a while you will see city where once the

PENSACOLA, FLA, March 1.-The trial
of ]. NJ. Thomson, charged with essaulting
j. I. Carter in December last, and which was
specially reported at the time, began in
the criminal court to-day. The evidence
adduced did not differ materially from
that given at the preliminary examination.
The jury took the case at 5 o'clock, and
were instructed to return sealed verdict,
which will probably be done at the opening
of the court tomorrow. 1t will be remem-
bered that Carter is the divorced husband
of Tbomson's present wife, and the difficulty
in which the former was thought at the
time to have been fatally wounded came
about from indecent remarks said to have
been made by Carter against Thompson's
wife. The high standing of all the parties
concerned and the circumstances leading TO
the difficulty made the affair a sensation at
the time.
