I will follow my Paris notes very close
ly, although it may lead to disconnected
and abrupt paragraphs, and to the narra
tion of many-tbiogs of only passing and
personal moment. And this reminds me
While trouble which my journal cost me.
of the I was on the Continent—where one
is apt to get to bed early because the
play-honses use the language of the coun
try—I usually was up at daylight, bnt not
until I had enjoyed a few forbidden min
utes in bed, dreading the work required
on that inexorable diary. My toilet was
speedily accomplished, while the record
of the previous day’s work oftentimes con
sumed an honr. In Paris, as soon as it
was finished, I rang for the waiter, who
knew precisely what was wanted, and yet
he always would come up to get au order
that he could not possibly understand.
He expected me to begin the day with cof
fee only, which was much too thin a break
fast for my system, aud I, therefore, had
a couple of roils aud butter in addition—
all this you know before yon rise, or at
least in your room. My New York friend
had aindiy taught me to say au lait in or
dering coffee, that 1 might not have to
drink the mt.tu.iual beverage in all its
blackness.
Coflee and my journal satisfactorily dis
posed o.', I began to regard the gloomy
sky with anxiety. My letters at a banker's
and a rainy Sunday—what could be more
provoKing ? 'i'he rain soon Degan to fall;
but it brightened after a while, aud I ven
tured a walk—keeping close to. the omni
bus lines for fear the storm would come
on again. Following the colonnades of the
rne de Bivoli I soon came to the two pal
aces, whose names are as familiar as house
hold words: but I h *d never dreamed that
I should look on their ghosts, upon mere
skeleton pa'aces with vacant, blackened
eyes, from which the ambitious spirits of
a gay court had fled. The long stretches
of walls are nearly intact,—cold, silent
witnesses of the demoniac hate and rage
.that possessed the frenzied mob. The
Palais Koyal stands very much as the
flames left it. In the place du Caron; sel
workmen were rebuilding a portion of the
vast accumulation of buildings that is
known the world over as the Tnileries.
Farther on is the Hotel de Ville, which is
a complete and irreparable ruin. It is
gone beyond all hope of restoration—bro
ken statues and tangled iron beams and
immense breaches, attesting the destruc
tive fury of the madmen who swept away,
in a Satanic glare, the grandest and most
historic building of their capital.
The lain threatening again, I turned to
the magnificent quays that line the river,
following them back to the Tnileries. Like
the Thames, the Seine divides the city into
two nearly equal parts, and it is thus both
its great 'central sewer, and a convenient
place for the weary devotees of pleasareto
make their final plunges. Some of the
sentimental writers would have us believe
that one can stand on a central bridge
most any dark night, and hear them jump
off Such stories are a good deal over
done. For my part I don’t believe any
man of taste would select such a dirty
little stream for a romantic exit from this
bright world. Its waters aTe as thick and
black as water con well be, and there itn’t
-enough ot it anyway for a sure thing in
the emcide line.
Twenty-five bridges—many of which are
very handsome—afford ample jneans of
•erbssing the stream, which is never dis
turbed by keels from further Ind or far Ca
rte ay. Havre on one side. and Marseilles
on the other, are the ports of the capital.
The multifarious smells of commerce do
not taint her pure air, nor do its cares
greatly vex her pleasure-loving people.
There is just room for some very small
steamers that, like those of the Thames,
.ply up and down, touching here and there
throughout the length of the city. Besides
'the'little steamboats, there are a great many
barges laden with charcoal, wood, or peat;
.and in the neighborhood of the quay of the
Louvre, the mammoth bathing houses—the
-idea—laundry establishments—worse yet—
ad swimming schools, nearly monopolize
tie water way. Fancy the delights of a
swim in the liquid mud of a sewer! All
ihese establishments are large and tasty,
and some of them are very ornate in finish.
The floating laundries are two stories in
height, the upper one being the dry-house,
and fenced in with pretty trellis-work. The
small drops of rain now began to ripple the
-quiet water, and I was glad to avail myself
of the near-at-hand colonnades to get hack
with a dry skin to my room, where I read
and napped until lunch. At this noonday
meal my landlady announced an intention
of going out to the suburban resort of
ENGHIEN,
where her brother keeps a hotel. I gladly
accepted an invitation to accompany the
landlady’s son and the New Yorker, both
of whom could talk our old-fashioned
rtongue. At two o’clock we went to the
Calms depot, the weather having cleared up
beautifully. And how do you think we
rode ? May I be Ku-KIuxed if we did not
go up a flight of stairs to find our seats in
the railroad cars. We went third-class in
the second story—a double-decker for peo
pie instead of hogs. A flight of ladder-
stairs leads up at the end of the car to the
upper story, which is very airy, pleasant
and sightly in good weather. The sides
arc mainly unenclosed, and they are only
•used, I believe, on short urban runs
We glided past vegetable gardens, behind
which loomed up the commanding walls of
Fort Valerian; stopped at St. Denis, whose
numerous factories make it, in one respect,
another Cologne; and reached our pretty
objective point within thirty minutes after
starting. Enghien boasts a liftle lake—the
only one for aught I know near the city—
and the people go out to it in large numbers.
The tasty and admirable public house to
which we go is called the hotel du Lac. -
We passed through its central ball to one
of those little walled gardens in the rear,
that are so characteristic of French homes.
Against the walls were grape, pear and
peach vines, trained with wondrous pa
tience and skill. You may smile at the
idea of training peach and pear trees, bnt I
insist that it fairly describes the way in
which such frnit is grown on the garden
walls of France. There were roses in the
garden, and of course a poplar or so. By
and by the landlady came down the path
to greet us; and as we walked, she show
ed—with tears in her voice—the stumps of
two locusts that Hans had barbarously
made while he occupied the house. His
vandal saw had penetrated to the heart of
a third where it stopped, leaving ns all
to wonder if the inanimate steel did not ac
tually rebel against being an accomplice in
a further sacrilege of nature’s fair work.
Having a couple of spare hours before
dinner, we took one of the frequent trains
to Montmorency, from which a walk of
about a mile brought us to L’Ermitage, the
home of Bosseau. The house is standing,
and so is the wide-spreading, stately chest
nut, under which he delighted to write; but.
there ends the schedule of what the rude
hand of war left untouched. Like the mis
anthropic philosopher, the place had pass
ed through stormy times. The invaders
demolished every door and window, disfig
ured the walls with records of their vulgar
names, and with coarse libels on their bet
ters, and made sad havoc with the once
beautiful home of one of the greatest and
unhappiest of men.
The Germans did not occupy Paris at the
time of my visit, but they still held the
forts and the country all about it; and as
we walked back to Enghien, we saw my
riads of them in the beer shops. I had
seen them all the way from Strasbourg, but
no tents, aud I began to wonder how and
where they lodged and fed. The solution
presented itself at every turn as we walk
ed—they were quartered on the inhabi
tants. A card on the casing of the entrance
stated the number, names, rank and regi
ment of the helmeted warriors within. The
hospitalities of the average-sized residence
“welcomed” about three of them. My
notes of this interesting walk are full of
references to shattered windows, broken
roofs, and the ruthless work of balls ; for
wo passed many an untenented, roofless
house on the way.
But the cruel war is over, and we dine
in the peaceful garden of the hotel by the
Lake. Now, isn’t it queer that the people
of some countries will eat out of doors if
the weather is at all favorable, while the
people of other lands, equally well blessed
in climate, never think of such a thing ?
About twenty of us sat down under the
shade of the trees. I was chatting freely
with the New Yorker, as people will who
think no one else can understand what thoy
say. Presently my friend, who was handy
at French, heard the good-looking young
lady opposite say to her companion—all in
French: “They are English, I am sure, for
I hear them say Yes, Yes.” The manner
of her discovery seemed to me very singu
lar. I was not aware that I used the word
of assent often; and I cannot believe that
we use it once where a Frenchman does
fifty times. The yaw-yaw of Germany is
beyond enumeration, and a Frenchman’s
politeness brings out his “yes” even often-
It generally comes in this shape, “we-
we, we.”
After dinner we enjoyed the cool air of
the evening on the piers and shores of the
pretty Lake; and as I watched the people
come and go, in groups and arm-in-arm, or
wandering alone, the thought would force
itself on my mind: How much alike the
people of this world are under similar cir
cumstances and. conditions! We are of
one common mould, even if each particular
race does think itself’ the salt of the
earth.
A GENERAL VIEW.
A FEW NOTES FROM THE STREET.
Doth the saucy newsboys cry as they
run, “ ’Ere’s your morniDg Sun ?” Nay,
verily. Monsieur bujB his small dark
sheets of old women in little stalls on the
outer edges of the broad walks.
Is bread sold by the yard ? French
loaves are from three to six feet long, and
about as large aronnd as a man’s clenched
fist, and twice a3 tough. They join hands
with their German enemies in liking hard,
cast-iion crusts.
The street cries of Paris are innumera
ble, and just as intelligible as those of Lon
don, with this difference—one does not try
to bring on a brain,fever by a crazy effort
to fathom their meaning at the end of a
morning nap.
Nine ont of ten horses in the streets are
dappled-gray stallions—stout, thick-neck
ed, powerful, and apparently docile ani
mals. Heavy two-wheeled carts are main
ly used, drawn by horses hitched tho one
ahead of another until they have enough
for the load. I often saw a string of five
attached to a heavy load of stone blocks.
In so large a town the traveler hardly
misses the few buildings that were destroy
ed daring the seige and by the Commune,
unless he makes it a special feature to look
for them. But the indentations of the
rifle balls will catch the eye at every turn
in the more interesting parts of the city;
and they are a good indication of the great
extent of ground that was fought over.
The lofty columns and the sides of the
Madeliene were thoroughly pitted in the
sulphurous outbreaks, and many a window
still showed where the swift agents of de
struction had passed smoothly through. I
remember one at the comer of the boule
vard des Capucines that was fairly riddled.
Like the rest it was patched with cloth, and
was retained, perhaps, as a memento of
the dangerous times from which the good
sense of the nation at last snatched Peace
and Order.

Z3T It may give readers some idea of what
a little economy in saving paper material
will amount to when they hear that the sales
of waste paper from the various public de
triments in England amount to something
ike $80,000 a year. About half this waste is
confidential paper, income tax returns, etc.,
all of which is sold direct to paper makers,
who reduce it to pulp and remanufacture it.
About 77 per cent, of the waste paper sold is
reduced to pulp. For some kinds from £17
to £35 a ton is obtained; for mill waste £10
a ton.

A Good Thing Duly Appreciated.—
No beneficial revolution ever goes back
ward; and this maxim is as invariable in
medicines as in politics. .The advent of Hos
tetler’s Stomach Bitters, twenty years ago,
produced a revolution in the treatment of a
arge class of ailments, and that revolution
has ever since been “in the full tide of suc
cessful experiment.” If that tide has borne
the proprietors of the celebrated vegetable
specific “on to fortune,” it has also borne
thousands of human beings, who were lan
guishing; under the effects of disease, weak
and hopeless, out of the depths of despond
ency into the paradise of health and cheer
fulness. It is no exaggeration to say, that to
the vigor, the regularity of habit of body,
the good appetite and perfect digestion, ac
quired under the operation of this unequaled
tonic and corrective, multitudes of people in
every walk of life, who had been vainly phy
sicked in the usual way, owe the blessings of
renewed health and the prospect of pro
longed life.

That gorgeous Grecian church, known to
all mankind as the Madeleine, may proper
ly be called the hub of Paris—certainly of
modern Paris, the Paris of Hausemann and
the palmy days of the Empire. From it
starts the circling boulevards that cover the
ground once occupied by the defenses of
the city. Under many names they swing
around from the church to the Place of the
Bastile, which is about three miles distant;
and from this historic square, we trace
them across the river, where they sweep
aronnd the Latin Quarter, past the Pan
theon, by the Tomb of Napoleon,—re
crossing the Seine to end in the more bril
liant Champs Elysees, near “the place of
beginning.” There are other bonlevards,
stretching ont in various directions, bnt
none of them ore particularly worthy of
notice. For that matter the grand bonle-
vardic chain that I have sketched is, in
many of i ts parts, very tame. The width—
probably thrice that of Peachtree—the
rows of ill-favored trees, and the asphal-
tom, characterize the entire extent; bnt
fashion’s empire, and the glitter of ele
gance and wealt'i, give out before we have
walked the first mile. After that we come
to Jewish bonlevards, cheap-theatre bon
levards, dollar-store bonlevards, and bou
levards for the million.
The buildings of Paris are, as a rule,
tall and elegant. A soft,: creamy stone,
hoisted from the depths of the earth near
the city, up through deep shafts, supplies
the building material—which, if not nice
ly cat, is covered with the customary coat
of stucco that is fonnd in all continenta 1
cities—the whole forming a handsome and
truly magnificent city. The longer I am
away from it the brighter doasit seem, and
the more does it darken the remembrances
of less brilliant towns. Yet at the time I
thought—and it is so written in my notes—
that there is too much uniformity in its
street architecture, too much Mansard root
without relief. Miles and milts of the
newer streets are precisely alike at the top.
But the air is so clear and pure, the streets
are so clean and quiet, the people so polite
and carelessly happy, that one can’t think
ill of the metropolis if he tries; and I went
there with that intention. Its elegant de
votees of luxury are never in a hurry. No
matter what the hour is, you can saunter
along the crowded boulevards even, stop
ping here and there—at a shop window,
perhaps, to see a picture—without having
to chafe the angry, unyielding edges of a
Gheapside or Broadway flood. Either the
frequenters of the fashionable streets have
no business cures, or else they have a hap
py knack of concealing them. Let me
