FROM PARIS TO ALGIERS. Notes and Incidents of the Trip As De scribed by Our Travelling Cor respondent. Fora long winter I have been in a -great and busy city. Oftentimes I have longed for a peep at a calm, smiling landscape, and for it breath of fresh, •count ry air. This wish has at last been •gratified. A journey by rail for two stays fruit 1 Paris to Marseilles, through .a beautiful country, with its wealth of WQr-changlng landscapes, was like a Jlood of spring-time falling unexpected ly into the dreariness of winter. Surely, France In the spring-time is the most 1 M-autifnl country in the world. There is an exact it ude, a painstaking, in French agriculture that outlines upon the face of broad and fertile acres a rich pietureof faultless perspective, “iloau- Siful and sunny France,” it has been -■ailed. Certainly, if I remember its beauty iih presented to me during this trip I shall have no reason to change t he expression. As the heavy locomotive pulled slow ly its long train, woli loaded with pleas ure seekers, out Into the country, and ore we had lost, the cit y of Paris to view, (beclouds seemed to lift just for our benefit—the sun came out In all the freshness and glory of a spring day, and Ihd beautiful Holds, rich in the promise •of their harvests, gave salutation. I11 a few hours wo were passing through the great, bolt of tho French vineyards, which reaches from central France to the Atlantic ocean. Thou, in the course of a few hours, tho scene suddenly changes, and for two hundred miles, until wo reach Mamdllos, it is one con tinual orchard of olive and almond * rues. The olive oil is t he principal wealth of this section, and dotted here and thorn along the way are manufacto- riee whore the oil is prepared for mnr- ►Vot They say that our old friend, tho ••otton sood oil, is accustomed to leave by stealth its native heath, chango Its «uune in a sea voyage, and bob up in Che French market us genuine “olive svil," much to tho detriment of its hon- stst competitor. Hut here wo are at Marseilles, with its . Iiio.ooo inhabitants with its splendid harbor- a city of groat commercial itn- jportaneO the second city of Franco, Again wo look upon t he sea, and t he groat vessels which a multitude of sail ora are busy loading and unloading, l'lte night is over. It. is now morning, -oid wo aro to leave for Algiers at 12:30. l'he Hrst business with a traveler is, of ■course, to visit the steamship olllco ami have his cabin on board tho steamer as signed him. I daresay many of tho travelers that our train brought to tho city last night will have a rich export s'tioo this morning boforo sailing Among tho passengers on tho train was a young priest, who doubtless, front ItiM nervousness and tho wonder con stantly depicted on his face at every change of scene, had never traveled be fore. llo could not conceal bis anxiety, and was constantly nsklug questions which showed hint to bo just such a sub ject as "sharks’’ delight to pounce upon His dark ministerial robo was no pro tection against the designs of “sharks.” Ho had nil experience; behold how. Marly in tho morning ho started out search of the steamer's olllco. lie 'iQlflftfil at tho turn of thollrst corner to dentinal some instructions. Unlucki ly for him, ho fell innocently into tho hands of a band of parasites who wore l he lookout for a stranger. Yes, t hoy would show him the olllco; they would go with him with pleasure. So saying, they walked him around a square in tho opposite direction, where all took ♦-onto wine, for which the young priest l>aid, since his companions wore so gen erous. Thus around two or three other -quaros and another drink. Thus they walked tho poor fellow for an hour or more, at last showing hint the otlico, -and demanding at tho same time money for l-Uoir services. This was refused, but the parasites, well knowing their man, flew into a passion and pretended that they would swallow him whole if it were not for the respect they had for UU calling. This outburst of passion the poor young priest escaped by hand ing (Mil some of his extra dimes for the -service renderod. Ho had simply •struck a band of parasites whoso profes sion, luckily, is no worse than to bleed unsuspecting travelers of a few dimes, j hoy succeeded only too well with our tellow-passenger, and as lie recounted with sadness this story of human de pravity to us, he showed that he had evidently learned a lesson that I10 would sengi'T", on their first voyage, looked at tho broad swfcep of t he sea with a feel ing of (list rust, and t hen ut me ns I prom (Minded the deck with so much confl donee in my sailor’s cap, they would doubt less say, “Humph! ho has t ravolet before; he is not afraid of t he son." But, alas! it, is not the llrst time in the history of the, world tlmtn haughty spirit goes before a fall. In a short time I was on my back in the hunk my cabin. Why, do you ask? Well, that’s the quest ion. Supper came on, and the servant seemed to stop just, above my bend and ring and ring his hell, just to taunt, me.- He might have known that supper before sunset was too early for an American. And a good lady kirid-henrted|slio was -pooped in as she passed to her room just across t he way, ns much as to say, “Are you sick? I am so sorry!" Ah! I suddenly recall that she is one of the ladles to whom 1 gave my sympathy in mlvant I finally ring for tho porter, and he comes, pulls aside the curtain, and says, before 1 have time to explain matters, "Arc you sick?” Ah! there it is again, as if other people should know my pri vate business. "You just tiring mo a sandwich and an orange, will you said I, “I think I shall not go to supper; it is too much t rouble to go upstairs.’’ Soon (ho stars canto out in a host i tho blue sky, and mirrored themselves in the (loop beneath. In silence, upon my buck, I eat my sandwich and look into tho glorious heavens, with their wealth of divine beauty, and far away towards the horizon, wltcro stars now and then scent to dip down in a bath into tj>e ocean. It was not so bad, after all. In fact, I concluded all to ntysolf not to go to tho table at all during the voyage, but when moul-tlmo came around to simply ask for a sandwich, nml in the solitude of ray cabin to oat the sandwich in ponoo, In contemplation of the glory of tho universe. My sail or’s cap was already folded in impn- tience and packed away in disgust. Hut yonder is Algiers—tho voyage is nearly ended. All passengers are on dock, eager to get tho llrst glimpse of the city, and then of tho Arabs. Tito sight; of tho Arabs in their funny cos tumes is a new sight to most of us, and 0110 almost forgets the Ills of the \oy- age, In the interest that the new scene excites. After 28J hours our steamer slows up nml comes gradually to anchor in the port of Algiers, during which time wo contemplate tho city before us. Tho view front tho sea is a striking sight. White houses rise tomico above terrace in the form of an amphitheater, against the side of a great hill that curves around the harbor. There are lintidsomo quays and beautiful bouvle- vards at tho base, nml tho crown is formed by Cnsbad, the ancient citadel. The ntosquos with their minarets, tho public gardens abundant in palms and other tropical plants, the multitude of swarthy Arabs, all clearly tell us that Kuropo is behind us. Hut the gang-way is lowered and there is a rush for land. At llrst, until we pass the officers who search our baggage, we Itnvo no diffi culty, but immediately wo pates the line guarded by tho military wo are at tho mercy of the good-natured but howling Arabs, Wo calmly seat ourselves upon our valise, and wit h our umbrella koep the niolt ol' young Arabs at bay. They aro so obliging, each one wishing to •itfry your baggage, and it takes a sharp rap of the umbrella occasionally to nuso them to release their hold. We forget t he ludicrousness of our situation in watching a feHow-passongor who is indiscreet enough to try to carry his own trunk on his shoulders from tho piny. Immediately he is besieged by a multitude of Arabs, disputing with each other and pushing each other in their strife to obtain the privilege of carrying ills trunk for him, in order to make a few cents. For a moment tho passenger is nonplussed, and he stands in doubt while the Arabs take advan tage of his embarrassment to howl in his ear. lie decides upon a modus operandi, for at once he begins to throw his dis engaged arm about bint, cracking the Arabs on the head, The Arabs in turn chide each other, but something in the manner or dress of their passenger ausos them to renew their attacks and it seems they quietly conclude to have some fun at hi- expense. They attack' his trunk front all direction, trying to it from his shoulder. While the been a quantity of “Coweta High- Grade” sold in Cullman City. For the information of those desiring to know about lands out here, I will state that there is no land in Cullman county subject to entry. The Govern ment set apart every sixteenth section for school purposes, called “school lands.” All of these lands have been sold.itt t his county. After the school lands were taken out, every other sec tion was given by tlie Government to the Louisville and Nashville road. Now there is plenty railroad land here for sale, from $3 to $4 per acre. It is sold on such easy terms—small payments annually—that any industrious man can moot the payments and soon have a good homo. Now, in Winston county there aro large tracts of good land sub ject to entry, and it is fast tilling up. Winston adjoins Cullman, and it is said the branches don’t dry up there in sum mer as they,do in Cullman. Therein Hint rock in Winston; none in Culltnan. The rocks here are smooth, shito-look- ing, and you can writo your name on some of them. There are nlso consider able tracts of school land in Winston, which will be sold soon. It is tho cheap est land a man can buy. It is pjit up and sold to tho highest bidder, no mat ter what it brings. The Surveyor of Cullman county told mo ho saw school lands sell in Cullman county six years ago at 25 fonts per acre, A man near Logan sold out rocontly and bought 1(10 acres 01 school land in Winston for $85. People abroad have art idea that the county of Cullman is filled up with Germans. That is a groat mistake. They aro numerous only in and around Cullman City. The pcoplo aro clever, law-abiding citizons, who “Remember tho Sabbath day and koop it holy.” We aro forty tnilos from Decatur, Ala, Decatur is on the Tonnesseo riv er, which, atthatplnco, is thsee-fourths of a mile wide.

Wliat the South Needs. Ex-Governor Lowrny, of Mississippi, in North American Review. The needs of tho South tiro organized or systematized labor, capital, and less legislation. 1 dissent from those who class tho negro as an inferior laborer. I regard him as the best and cheapest la borer that will ever be found for the cultivation of our chief product, cotton. Ills adaptability to the climate, and tho fact that I10 is not a skilled laboror, to gether with his natural inclination, lit him for the cotton Hold. What his ul timate fate may bo is a difficult prob lem, but it will bo no easy task to flnd his equal or supply his place as a labor or for tho cultivation of cotton. When it is romembored that^he annual value of this one product alono in Mississippi, in round numbers, is Hfty millions of dollars, and that it exceeds that sum in one State and approximates it in others, the importance of well organized'’and reliable labor is apparent. It is one of the needs that cannot be overestimated. I have had occasion heretofore to say, and I repeat the statement, that if the area of country embraced in wliat is known as tho Mississippi delta was thoroughly protected from tho floods and every acre cultivated in cotton, it would produce more than was raised in tho United States iu any year previous to the late war. take not soon forgot. | unlucky passenger grows furious in liL lk;t we are011 board the steamer We failure to rout them, lie picks up a 1 rapid!) fading into a line of blue j pjetely exhausted at length, he drops along the horizon, ami tho groat blue , 'ns trunk with a “hang!” oh the feet of Mediterranean stretches ahead, had crossed tho Atlantic 1 bee A- 1 the nearest Arab, who goes away liowl- ... t "!h "tth pain, and with both bauds lie 10 , di-plays a capacity to combat, with hi; ABSOLUTELY PURE An Albany lady, whoso husband is the champion snorer of his community, contided to a female friend the other day the following paiuful intelligence: My life has not been one of unalloyed delight. I have had the measles, the chicken pox, the cholera, the typhoid lover and the inflammatory rheuma tism, but I never knew wliat real mis fortune was until l married a burglar ilarm.” A Sad Condition. suffered for 11 vo years with the Plain and Pretty Women. The question is often asked, “Why is it that so many plain women marry well while pretty girls either do not marry at all or make matches that, are failure^, from a mental, social and pecu niaay standpoint?” llto fact is, that woman’s idea of a man is of a creature differing but little from • ho domestic quadrupeds with which site surrounds herself in the home circle. A pretty girl in her early youth is surrounded by a set, of vapid boys. Naturally she forms her judgment of men from them. Therefore, her iden of mankind is not an exalted one. She finds that to look pretty and to dress tastefully, to dance and chat on tlie most frivolous subjects, is all that is re quired in order to be a success. l’retty women, as a rule, do not give as much thought to tho cultivation of their Intellect as they would devote to the manufacture of a now bonnet. For a brief space, while youth lasts, her wares apparently find satisfactory returns. Men praise her pretty face; they seem to enjoy her society; sho is, therefore, satisfied. But alter youth lias tied, carrying with it her bright eyes, her rosy cheeks and roguish dim ples, when mind and not matter is to he weighed in tho balance, how griev ously is sho then found wanting? There was no soul behind the bright eyes to keep them forever brilliant, nor mind to illuminate the palo face and keep it forever fair. Her youth lias pass ed away. All that she over possessed or cultivated she finds it then too late to avail herself of. Sho lacks the energy to bestow hor care and attention upon graver matters, and thus embittered by tho cold looks and bittor words of her quondam admirers she sinks into a state of apathy, drift ing aimlessly with the tide,, and finally ends a life of drea ry maidenhood without having made better or brighter one soul for her liv ing. A plain woman, on the contrary, cul tivates all the best,gifts of the mind and soul with which sho bus been endowed. In the early part of her life, perhaps, her prospects would seem dim compared with those of a beautiful associate; but in Inter years, when tho frivolous boys have, from long contact with the world, with serious thought and study, become earnest men, the plain woman becomes a necessity—tjho pretty one a pastime for an idle moment. l’retty women have less opportuni ties, strange ns it may seem, titan plain ones for becoming wliat they were or iginally intended to be—sweet, noble, patient helpmates—simply because men (on whom the fault should rest) have caused women to entertain the idea that life is neither a serious nor an earnest thing, but simply a journey to be jested and danced through. Is it any wonder that our girls think men aro puppets to laugh and sing at their will? Mrs. Wammmker lias introduced a now fad in Washington, and lias a class of young women meet at Iter residence t wice a week, whore a professor of phy sical grace from abroad teaches tliem how to walk, logo up or downstairs, to bow, to smile, to make eyes and to dispose of the hands. Hereditary Blood Poison. Many of tho evils of life are inherit ed. Parents transmit to their children a stnto of Mood impurity. What a fear ful heritage to bequeath an innocent child! Scrofula, skin diseases, erysip elas ringworm, tetter, scabby surfaces, syphilitic symptoms, ulcerative and consumptive tendencies, etc., all of which make life miserable, and the vic tim a prey to designing quacks. It is manifestly tho duty of every one to keep their blood pure and their system in a condition of good health. Nature has given as kindly herbs that will ac complish this,if properly used. The best are used with careful selection in that compound known as Dr. Hull’s Sarsapa rilla. There is no phase of blood poison this incomparable alterative wifll not relieve.
