FRENCH A CURIOUS PEOPLE.

They Have Vanity, but Not Pride; Reli-
sion. but Not Morality.
1.-The French must be the most Gu
rious people on EARTH" writes Lillian
Bell in a letter from Paris to the La
dies Home Journal. How could
even Heavenly ingenuity create more
uncommon or bewildering contradict
ton and combination? Make up your
mind that they are as simple as chill
dren when you see their innocent pic
nicking along the boulevards and in
the parks with their whole families.
yet you dare not trust yourself to hear
what they are saying. Believe that
they are cynical, and fin de steele, and
skeptical of all women when you hear
two men talk, and the next day you
hear that one of them has shot him
self on the grave of his sweetheart
Believe that politeness is the ruling
characteristic Of the country because a
man kisses your hand when be takes
leave of you. But marry him, and no
insult is too low for him to heap upon
you. Believe that the French men are
sympathetic because they laugh and
cry openly at the theatre. But appeal
to their chivalry, and they will rescue
you from one discomfort only to Of
fer you worse. The French have
sentimenta1ity, but rot sentiment.
They have gallantry, but not chivalry.
They have vanity, but not pride. They
have religion, but not morality. They
are a combination of the widest ex-
travagance and the strictest parsi-
mony. They cultivate the ground so
close to the railroad tracks that the
trains almost run over their roses,
and yet they leave a Place de la Con-
corde in the heart of the CITY,"

The Family and the Home.

This is the time to provide the means
long and quiet evenings to come.
Farmers, mechanics, tradesmen, mer-
chants, men of all classes and ages
now is the time to ask yourselves, how
shall we spend the winter evenings
most pleasantly and profitably? Ladies
1T is your pleasure to make home the
happiest spot on earth-prepare now
to make the fireside attractive and
happy. Parents, have you thought of
the best means of promoting the well
fare and happiness of your children
during the winter? Every one knows
something of the charms of winter
evening at home, and of those charms,
reading is the chief, the most lasting,
and the best. A thoroughly good and
entertaining paper is specially adapted
to meet the desire for winter evening
amusement. Every one who has en-
joyed the society of the Ledger by the
freside must have felt happier and
better for it's perusal. To instruct, to
amuse, to- advocate high standard
of morality, and to cherish all the
better feeling of the heart, is it's mis-
sion. Nothing is admitted to it's pages
that can wound the feelings of the most
sensitive, or call blush to the cheek
of the most modest. Children may
read it with pleasure and profit, and
we wish to make the Oldest, wisest and
best in the community confess thein
obligations to us for many pleasant
well-spent hours. s5T.

On the occasion of one of his visits

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Wheat Opened Weak, But Became
Firmer at the Close.

Chicago Aug. 16.-Wheat got d weak
start from Liverpool sending lower quota
tons, but there was a disposition during
the first couple of hours 10 go slow on
the selling side and take small profits on
declines. The crowd during that time
were evidently restrained from selling
freely by the fact that the increased
movement that country adVices had been
predicting for Il day or two had not yet
got beyond the stage of probability.
The speculative market turned fear
fully dull and there was no activity in the
cash demand OF the business. Inc latter
might have shown more life had stocks
been heavier, but people who had bids at
from 5 TO cents a bushel premium over
September in store for shipping parcels
of No. Kansas hard and No. 2 red
winter could not get offers of anything
like the quantity there were orders for
from the Seaboard. Kansas City'S gem
eral remark in answer to bids from here
was that cash wheat or spot for August
shipment was scarce. as millers were pay
ing better than shipping rates for the
moderate offerings from farmers. This
had some little effect in hardening the
tone of the speculative market, but. it
apparently depended more upon pruden-
tial covering by shorts than buying for
long account. September closed 2sc higher
and December &c lower to Ac up.
Commission house liquidation on the
continued favorable weather and lower
cables depressed corn. September left
