Leaving Long Branch on tho after

for Fhilft.ie!phi.i in the regular throogh

too, waa generally of a white, gravelly
character, incapable of producing any

Occupying the tamo scat with your
humble servant was a rather good looking,
plainly dres.-cd lady, the make-up of whose
head gear utterly ignored modem curls,
switches and fruzing, while the cut of
her modest slapacs might have belonged
to the nut century. Still she was scru
pulously neat and possessed fine oyes and
regular features. After a little she pro
duced a package of tracts, and began to
read, easting an occasional furtive glance
upon us. Readily interpreting her ob
ject, wo ventured to ask tho loan of ono
of them. This was quite sufficient to un-
bottle the pent up sympathy and abound
ing zeal of tho pious sister. At onoo it
became her mission to pluck this brand
from the burning, and at it she went with
unmistakable fervor. Wo bad evidently

from the context, and mako them give
point to her own doctrines. After mildly
interposing an objection or too, simply to
draw her out, wo surrendered tho field,
and relapsing into silenoe, became as at
tentive and passive listener. This female
zealot l«Ionged to the sect known os
"Advent Christians,” and "MiUerites.”
All her tracts, of which she bestowed
upon us a goodly number, treated of
those doctrines, and evincod not a little

Upon inquiry, we learned that thu unc
tuous sitter was returning, actually from
a camp-meeting held hundreds of miles
distant in Springfield, Massachusetts.
She bad a husband—alas, an ungodly

With unspeakable pily for tho fate of

In tho forenoon. Rev. Dr. Ralston, the

tho Lutheran Church. The writer hail
the pleasure of visiting several of the
Habhath-schools also, and was struck with
the excellent system of instruction in op

pit (the pastor not officiating) was filled
by a stranger. Just as he commenced his
sermon, something happened to the gas,
and it began to blink and wink at inch a
rate that totaldarknoss seemed inevitable.
The preacher drily remarked that os his

Monday morning. September 1st, at
an early hour, found us again on board
the ears of the Norristown and Reading
Railroad, cn route for tho city of William
lVnn. The rcvul for the whole distance
(fifteen miles.) is constructed upon tho
very lirink of the lovely and pellucid
Schuylkill river. Trains leave every
hour in tho day to and from Philadelphia,
and the country is almost a continuous
town. This is a great manufacturing
centre Jusd Conshohoeken. Manyyunk
and several other towns are noted for their
mill*, foundries, etc. At Manyyunk
are* immense paper mills from which the
Inquirer and Ledger derive their sup
plies. We saw about an acre of spa
here covered with
'■ OOXDID IOTLAK WOOD,
which is manufactured into paper of ev
ccllent quality. The Inquirer is printfe
upon paper made cf this novel substance,
which is destined, we trust, to work an
important revolution in the oust of

perfectly healthy, though still veiy quiet.
Trade has revived considerably, however,
within tho post week, especially in the
wholesale dry goods business. Cotton is
coming in freely, and the merchants are
hopeful of a good business season. One
sign, however, is far from favorable. We
sUuile to the paucity of advertise
ments in the newspapers of the
city. This argues financial pressure
or lack of enterprise. Perhaps both.
Depend upon it; the condition of tho

Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Your
correspondent arrivod here at 1 r. x. to
day, and finds the thermometer about as
low os wo in Macon have it in December.
A brisk northeasterly wind and rain ren
dered the temperature unpleasantly cool,
and decidedly so to ono who was so
thoughtless as to leave his overcoat and
thicker clothing in New York. Fires
have been comfortable to-day. As this
individual was the third visitor from
Georgia sinco 1860 the arrival of course
created a ■' sensation.”
Portland is a city of about 35,000 in.
habitants, with quite large manufac
turing interests and a good trade in al
most _every department of business. It
is also quite a fisli market, as wagon-
loads of cod and mackerel may be seen at
almost any time in the streets.
Quite a chapter might bo written of the
coast fishermen, who live entirely on the
water except in the dead of winter. Tho
ood, mackerel and herring are caught in
largo quantities and put up in packages
and shipped to all points in the States.
The business of making fish oil is also
large. Tho fish are caught in seines or
nets and boated with steam, when they
ore placed in a press and tho oil all ex
tracted. Tho oil is sold to the tanners
for leather, and the residue, consisting of
flesh and hones, is sold for fertilizing pur
poses, and has almost entirely taken the
place of Peruvian guano. It yields or
dinarily about six per cent, of ammonia.
The life of ;; fisherman on this coast
Certainly partakes of romance. Of the
number who start out in the spring from
10 to 30 per cent, are always lost. This
has been a disastrous year to them, as tho
recent storm wrecked or otherwise de
stroyed CO sail out of about 250. This
section is dependent almost entirely on
manufacturings. Tho country between
Now York and Boston, and between Bos
ton and Portland, seems to n passer-by to
be poorer than any hills in Monrooconnty.
Tiioir products consist of potatoes and
grass, both of which are shipped south in

consumer. Why cannot u o have our fac
tories ? Massachusetts lias grown rich on
its cotton and shoe factories. Why can
not our people do tho same ? Hero the
people are of the gcmiiuo “blue nose”
kind, but I found them all kind and oblig
ing. In my hnmhlo opinion our folks at
homo could learn modi from their expe
rience with lulur and especially with ser
vants. If any of our friends should wish
to como to Portland or to Boston, wo
would adviso them to take one of Fisk's
splendid boots, which leaves Now York
cry afternoon at 5 o’clock and lands
you in Boston early next morning. These
boots are floating palaces—the finest of
the kind afloat. A fast train from Boston
will bring you to Portland by 12:30 r. it.,
whence you can go by the Grand Truck
road to St. Johns, N. II., Montreal, and
all points North and East. I heard of
several of our Macon and Georgia friends
in Boston. All seem to ho buying large
stocks of goods for tho fall and winter
trade, which fact will no doubt soon be
made known through your advertising
columns. H. M. F.

No slaughter-house is allowed within
tho precincts of Paris, and oven live poul
try is not permitted within tho city lim
its. Everything brought to market must
be dead; hence the people are not annoyed
by droves of cattle, sheep, and hogs, ns
we of Baltimore ore. nor ore there any foul
smells from slaughter-houses. There are
no general meat-markets in Paris, all meat
being sold from stores, which are scatter
ed all over the city. The butcher’s stores
are among the most attractive establish
ments in the city, and many of them are
fitted up with great elegance, regardless
of cost. There is one on tho corner of
Boulevard Haussmann and Rne Auber
which fronts about sixty feet on each
street, and is a most bountiful sight, or
namented with fountains and flowers, and
oven the walls, as well as the tables, of
pure, white marble. There is probably
no store of any kind in tho city whieh
has been fitted up in so costly a manner
as this establishment, nor which pre-
s *nt s a more elegant appearance from tbs
street. The salesman are all arrayed in
pure white, and a clerk sits behind ii very
ornamental desk to receive the money from
the purchasers. All kinds of meat are
for hale here—beef, pork, lamb and mut
ton, and are all dressed and arrayed in
the most attractive manner, the legs of
mutton being done np like bouquets, in

be brought into the shops from the ‘
abattoirs before 4 o’clock in the morning, i
and the men engaged in lrillinw are not
allowed to appear u the streets of Paris
in tho clothes they wear at the abattoirs.
These stooes sell nothing bat meat, nnd
are carried on by the batchers, instead of
market stalls.
The abattoirs of Paris are located in
the snbnrh* of the city, the buildings of
which cover sixty-seven acres of land,
near the fortifications between the Canals
,le l’Ourcy and St. Dennis. Tho slaugh
tering of cattle of all descriptions is re
quired by law to be dene here, the aver
age pi r week being two thousand beeves,
eight hundred cows, a thousand calves,
and ten thousand sheep. There are, also,
good number of horses slaughtered,
their meat being sold to the poor, it hav
ing been found during the siege to be
luite palatable. lVornont horse* are fat
tened and sold to the batchers, the sup
ply from the carriage and omnibus stalls
ing very extensive.
The principal entrance to these exten-
re slaughter-houses is by tho Rue de
Flandre. It is inclosed by an elegant
railing, with eleven gates of entrance

i appearance of an inclosed town.
