The first aim of & Frenchwoman (says the New York Sun), even before the possession of dress itself, is to know bow to wear lier dress with the ease and grace that make it, 50 to say, apartofl herself, and set off its intrinsic merits Inthe same proportion 25 it embellishes and heightens her own grace and beauty. This art of “kuowing bow to dress,” which has made Frenchwomen famous, their American- sisters fully share with them, if cven they do not sur- them in some respects. The American Mdicsat the Court of the Empress Eugenic yere noted for the supreme taste and elegance thelr toilets, not _yielding the palm cven to ;I‘mme de !"I?nemich ‘herself, the Vice-Queen taste and fashion in the latter years of the nd Empire. w?“l’nh the;;.buve facts in view, it will readily be inderstood how the writer, after an absence srom Paris and a sojourn of four years in Lon- fon, where, not once in all that iime, were his yes feasted with the sight of cashmere bien rte or a train that did pot suggest, in some yague, uncasy manner imminent risk to the ¥mbs of the wearer, or to the limbs of those who ventured near it, it will be readily under- stood how the writer, in his first walk down Broadway, sfter his voyage across the Atlantic, most fancicd himself strolling along his be- joved Boulevard des Italiens. 2 “The sharp, clear atmosphere of a New York morning, the brillisnt shops, the lovely and ex- isitely dressed women moving past him with she h‘gil, easy step, and & (ul, undulating motion, that mark the Parisian ofall thewomen »f Europe,—2n easy step and a graceful motion that are not, nor ever will be, compatible with light shoes with heels § inches high,—all these things conspired to strengthen the delusion; the only weak point in the picture, and which tlone drew him back to_ reality, being the more . than homely look of the horses and general u turn-out ™ of the cquipages on the roadwey of sneof the most splendid streets of perhaps the most luxurious city on the globe. Delighted witlr "his first promenade in the American metropolis, he repeated it the next 33y, and the next, and on many succeeding days. But by degrees the dear delasion of Lanc_\-lufi hlmsu{! in Paris—a dclusion that nsually fc ppon him somewhere in the region of Union 3quare, and accompanicd bim along Broad- w3y down to the Post-Office—began to diminish, nd he grew weary and tired of the brilliant ;uh,-vf in the shop-windows, and of thestill more brilliant multitudes that surrounded them. And, when be took himself to task for this sud- Aen change in his humor, he discovered that his Tastidious taste revolted at the dazzling show, 15 an overburdened stomach revolts at an ex- o558 of food. Briefly, he found the thing over- ione. "A French Jady for & morning walk dresses in Ihe simpiest possible style. A plain, sombre- solored dress, of light or substantial material, xecording to the requirements of the season, 3 dlack or_gray hat. ‘with very little ornament. tinen collar and eufls, light brown or fawn col- pred gloves, constitute the princ al items of her morning promenade_toilet. Morning calls »re mot customary in France, cxcept between relations or intimate acquaintances,and when the hour for &n_flnz or receiving visits arrives, she chooses the totlet she will wear according to the requirements of the circumstances. If it Is her % day " for receiving visits_in her own Romse, she dresses herself 2s plainly and simply &s possible, o as not to outshine, but to leave a Irec field, in the matter of toilet, to the ladies who may call upon her. If, on the contrary, she has to pay visits; shie dresscs hersclf for walk- ving, as the casc mng be. Her urrlqu costume mey be ns_rich and_elegant as she chooses to make it, but her walking toilet must be rigorously selected, so asnot to- attract the eve by any gaudiness of color or eccentricity of form. Anditison this imint especially that the besutiful women of America sin, both against good taste and against themselves. Toufours rizi& as mischievous inits eflccts or its object in the matter of women’s dress and sdornment #s it is fn the matter of food, teking the phrase in its literal sense. A Frenchwoman, an innate Yurcpuon of the suitability of things, especially in dress, is rendered doubly attractive, because her obedience to this sume ‘perception not only gratifies the sense of pro- Erlaky of those who come into contact with ner, ut adds to her own charms a never-ending change and variety. Likea half-opened flower at early morning, she blooms ont in all her besuty and finery only when the heat of the day s over; but the American woman may be said o be full blosn all day long, and this Is why the fastidious forcigner gets £o quickly satiated with her splendors, and, turning away his fear- fully dazzled eyes, sighs for the sumptuary laws of former days, and—an oasis in & desert of silks, eatins, and velvets—the sight of 2 woman in a straw hat and a simple calico gown.

It's goft in the stilly night we hear its gentle mur- maur. ¢ Dost think spring hath come, Henri?"” %Yes, Consatina, I feel that I may assure you this warmthness will be 5o more dispelled by the wind; but why so strange a question?” 4 Becanse I fain would clothe my nether ex- tremities in silken covering, were I assured of the continuance of the prescnt balmness.

One evening recently, the {riends of a married couplein Chillicothe, O. (says a paper of that place), determined to give them a surprise party. T this end, twelve couples of young Jadies and gentlemen with well-filled bsskets made their appearance before the house about 9 o'clock. As thiey came to the door they saw the gentle- man standing in the alley-way with his over- coat on, smoking a cigar, and the parlor was all lighted up. This struck them as_rather siogu- Jar, but the leader grabbed the door-kneb, and they rushed bilariously in. The was burn- ing brightly, and six gig'nmed old ladies were itting around the stove, looking 2s solemn as ‘inquisitors. +0Ob, my! where's Mattie?” shouted an exu- berant young lady, setting her basket on the iano. ¥ “She's up-stalrs,” said an old lady, looking over her cles with solemn acrimony. Let’s have berdown,” screamed half-a-dozen o chorus, and t.!:i:y x¢n e s b‘r‘?k 'rgr u:,e!l;ln!Lm . “Hes on't go up there!” and the ol ladies :'fls’basty attempt to check the pro- posed reid, * Why, what on earth’s the matter There, any- how?" inquired the impatient darlings. “Yell, T believe it's & boy.” 40O, let's go!” And 'tha$ company of nice young men and, and I am women moved away like a soap-bubble in a hur- ricane, ani the girls never stopped for beaux or hackets, but stuffed their bankuvme!s in their mouths to hold their breath down till they were sufc_behind their own doors; and not agirl in the Fourth Ward knows where Mattie lives. A MEAN PLOT. A dty rallway car coming down-town yester- day (says the Detroit Free Press) contained five men, ayoung lady, and a stout woman with a market-basket and & soub nose. A voice sud- denly called out: “Blast my bones, but {t's blasted hot!” No onc seemed to know just which passenger spoke, and s man rose up snd sald: 1 deny that I used those awful expressions.” “8o d01,” ndded another, and pretty soon all the men had filed a denial. Then the young lady roee up and softly said: “T hope no one here will for a moment be- lieve that I could make use of such ladguage.” All had denied it except the woman with the basket, and all Jooked at her. She knew she hadn’t sald anything, and she saw through the Lob. Walking to the head of the car, shedropped er basket, gave her right shoulder a shake, and remarked: . “I can blast the head of the man who says 1 said it was blasted hot!” All the men looked across the street at a new .building, and the woman picked up her basket, sat dowa, and growled: “I just want to see one of you' fellers wink or in once !’ Five solemn men_rode five long blocks with faces as rigid as Sandusky stone. MATRIMONIAL CHANCES. The Clncinnati Enquirer gives some queer statisticsthus: “ A very sweet voung Jedy of the West End, who has evidently been giving the subject serious reflection, gives the following {able as showing a woman’s chances of marriage between the ages of 13and 40 years. Of 1,000 women, taken without_sclection, it is found that the number married at each age {5 as below. Or if (by an srithmctical license) we call a woman's chances of marriage in the whole course of her life 1,000, her chances in cach two years will be ghown in the table: Age Chances. tge. Chances. 1 T .71 s35 18 1 eeesenes 14 4\ hardly think it 2 fair thing ‘for our ladf friend to stop at the age of 53, as there are very few ladies who have arrived at that age of single-blessedness from whose hearts have been extinguished hopes of ever sceing the chosen one. No, indecd; 50 long as there isstill an old bachelor left, we say give the old maidsa chance, and don’t blame them for still clinging to hope.” FEMININE ITEMS. In Bath (England) Abbey is to be seen the fol- lowing: Here lies Ann Manu, She lived an old maid, and died an old Mann. Schools to teach girls plain needle-work are - proposed in New York. It is ncedless to say that the snccess of such schools will prove only SeW-sew. And now comes a Boston woman who, to out- do ber fashionable sisters with their twenty- Dutton gloves, has invented and wears forty- button stockings.

All she did hear was: " Good gra- clous! what’s your husband been doing?” The cditor of a Lancaster paper tells about a, girl with such o tight-fitting pull-back that, hen she accidently fell down, a gentleman who had rushed to her assistance was compelled, as 8 lastresort, to take her by the head and stand heron end like a clothes-pin.

Streot-Opening in Paris—The Family of Quesn Victoris, THE LAW’S DELATY. An amusing and yet tragical case of the law’s wise delays, witha climax of tremendous com- plications, has just come overto us(says the New York World) from the recent doings of the Paris courts, and this Is its history from the be- ginning: A marriage was announced between an aged physician named Morison and one Mme. Lozinski, widow, whose first choice bad been a person employed by the Paris, Lyons & Mediterranean Railway Company. The cere- ‘mony was set for May 6, 1874, It had been con- templated a long while,—2 dozen years or more: so long, in fact, that a certain child, afterwards named Lucette Marie, had decided not to wait for its solemnization before arriving. But, all the same, the Doctor was anxious to marry the widow with ner incumbrance; the day was fixed, the Mayor was notified, and the banns were pub- lished.” If the expectant bride was a widow, the expectant bridegroom was a widower,—a widower of two, By those two he had had eev- eral children, whom hie had one by qne settled in life, and it was only when he had married off the lnst of them that he bethought himself of keeping his oldipromise and of legitimatizing his Lucette Marie, of whom he was fond. Well, the bridal-robe was made ready, the car: ordered, the gloves and the bou bought. Alas, vain earthly hopes! On May 5. only one day before the ,E'Tc:\', day, the Mayor was notified of a protest entered against the marriage by the children of the expectant bride- groom. To be sure, children can make no.com- petent objection to the marrjage of their imme- diate ancestors, but anybody can object, and the Municipal Magistrate inay not pass upon_the soundness of proceedings which he is notified of. In this casc he more readily decided to suspend operations because in the notification these Eefllfle described themsclves “We, all rothers and sisters, aud jointly interested,” ete. Now, they were doubtleéss thelr own brothers and sisters, but they were not the Doctor’s. 1f they had been, thair * objection might have amounted to something—as an ob- Jjection, onyhow. .But they call these sinful cs * process,” and that makes them all right. . Sothe carriazes went back to the stables, the bridal robes to the closet, the gloves to their boxes, and as for thebouquets, poor things, they drooped and withred in.melancholy wise. The Doctor wrote letter after letter to his beloved. He also wrote to the Attorney General, and de- manded that the * objection” be vacated. But to get an objection vacated, cven when it is 2 sham one, there needs somc prudent delay, and on the night of the 1st of July old Dr. Morison—died.” Luckily, they said, he had, doubtless foreseeing his demise, taken the pre- caution of formally recognizing his Lucette Marie, the illegitimate child. But, behold, such legitimation is forbidden. She cannot be legiti- mized. Mme. Lozinski deems the Doctor’s ob- jecting children to blame for this mwstmgheq and, as guardisn of her minor child, sues them for 10,000 francs damages. Alas, the law steps in again and says: Before this action can cntertained, proof must be shown that the original * objection * was frivolous and ground- less; nothing can prove that but its vacation; it can be vacated only on the Doctor’s application, which had not been gassed upon at his death, and which after his death can never be passed upon. And so Mme. Lozinski was cheated out of her damages. Joral—If you want to marry, don’t walt twelve years. You may dic. PURCHASING TITLES. A Paris letter to the Philadelphia Telegraph says: Does any one of our millionaires wish to become 3 Marquis,—a real Marquis, with full right to the title, and with papers and all per- fectly en regle? All they have to do is to come over here to seck out a certain Italian Marquis, and to pay over the small sum of $50,000, whereupon the Marquis in question will legally adopt the lucky individusl and bestow wpon him his ancestral title, with the condition that ‘e is never to behold him more. Such, in 4 few words, is the bargain proffered to any aspiring Republican in love with a title, by the bearer of one of the noblest names in Italy. This zen- tleman, an old and distinguished-looking man, came to one of our prominent American resi- dents here Iately and unfolded to him the state of thecase. He was poor, he wanted money, and ‘e was willing to sdopt any man of wesith, good breeding, and good address (on these Jast points he insisted strongly), who would pay him the amount before named, and pledge himself never $0 seek his adopted father azain. Ont of sheer cariosity the American investigated the facts of the casc, and found that thc old gentléman’s statements were all true, and that ‘fic was per- fectly serions in his proposition. Ile was asked why he did not marry some heiress who would be bnpp{ to exchange her wealth against the title of Marnquise and his noble and ancient name. No, he did not want to marry, he did not want to he bothered witha wifc, he had formed other tics, ess binding and more satis- factory; all he wanted was inoney enough to enable hiin to live comfortably for the rest of his days, and so he had bethought himself of this cxggufint. Unfortunatcly my friend knew of no American gentleman at once wealthy enough and foolish enough to be will- ing to exchange the proud name of American citizen against the sounding brass and_tinkling cymbals of a foreign title. ~Had the title becn transferable on the female line the barzain might huve been concluded, for I regret to say that my eountrywomen have an immépse weak- ness for such vanities. However, it must be congeded that American heiresses are not more eager to purchase than the holders of grand old titles are to scll out their names and honors for a considerntion. One young Amencan lady, of Eruah wealth, who was in Paris last season, had er choice offered her of becoming an Italian Marchesa, a German Princess, or a French Duchess, while as to coronets of Counts and Barons that were strewn at her feet, they werc 03 sutumnal leayes in a forest in Novem- ber.

A mill- ion in the lady’s own right will purchase a Prince or a Duke; & Marqnis may be had for half as much; a Count of 8 guod old Legitimist stock, with a chatesu and a historical naine, and with a Iegend or two attached to the family, will Dring at Jeast $250,000, while Counts and Barons of a new creation may be bad far cheaper. Pl et MME. ROGER HAS HER “DAY.” Madame Roger (says a Paris letter to the Bos- ton Advertiser) was an industrious little needle- ‘woman, wife of an honest day-laborer, and very glad she was to have employment six days in the week, at 50 cents aday. A rich and ele- gant lady of my acquaintance appreciated her telent, and on one occasion had the little needle- woman make a ball-dress which she wore to one of the Monday-evening sofrees of the Empress. Her Mnjesty noticed and admired the pretty toilette, and Madame X., being the kindest- hearted of women, pushed her little protege on inthe world of fashion and finance, and ina shart time 60 good a reputation and patronnge had beenacguired that Madame Roger cstal lished hersclf in Rue Louis le Grand, where pany of my lady readers remember ordering the -most _satisfactory dresses they ever wore. There they paid ligh prices, ‘but then the dresses were 50 well made, and, bearing Mine. Roger’s name, were o much ad- mired! The successful couturiere was still young and grateful, and not being over-confi- dent in herself she never made a dress for the Empress without first_consulting Madame X., whom she rightly regarded as the_soul of her success. Years passed. Mme. X. left Paris, M. Roger died, his ‘widow married a lawyer's clerk, who, thanks to her moncy, bought the business and became lawyer fn his turn, and all went on so_swimmingly that one fine day the once little dressianker sold out, (leaving the name of Roger to her suvces- sor), and retired on a large fortune. She set up a country-house in which to_pass the summer months, a fine residence in Parls, horses, car- riages, and the rest of it. Madame X. returncd to the French Capital, and, waiking up the Champs Elysces oue day, met her former pro- tege (whom she always addressed as Mne. Roger), said how pleased she was to see her ngn‘in, and added: “I can’t stop to talk with 0u now, but come to me on Monday and Ishall e glad to hear all the particulars of your suc- cessful iife.”” AMadame Roger bowed, held out ner hand and replied. Madame, and on Fridays I shall be most to receive you.” STREET-OPENING IN PARIS. Paris correspondence New Orleans Picayune & In razing houses to open the pew Boulevard Henry IV., to conncct Boulevard St. Germain and de Ja Bastille, it has been found necessary to destroy the Hotel de Lesdiguicre. It was built by Sebastlan Zamel, a wealthy financier of Henry 1V.'s reign, and who was so_proud of lis estate that he signed one of his daughters’ marriage contracts: * Sebastian Zamel, sovereign lord of two millions of crowns:” $1,200,000 are not ‘much to boast of nowadays, but theu they were equal to about $3,600,000 of our moncy, and money was rare then. This mansion becamne the property of Gabrielle d'Estrecs, and she lived in it during all her intimeey with Hem}i Iv. Very like money is now awarded landlords and temants who ure dispossessed by these new streets. During the Empire it Wwas the policy of the Government to award considerable sums of money to these people. A greal many people rose from poverty to afiuence by losing their shop aod business. Now the chances are that these new thoroughfares will reduce many people from independence of fortune to beg- gary; for instance, a vistner in Rue de ln erisaie asked $4,000 and got $300; a trunk- maker asked £15,000, got $3,000; and a restau- rant-keeper who asked 314,200 got $3,600. These new thoroughfares greatly disturb_trade by changing the current's direction. Boulevard St. Michael has ruined many shopkecpers fn Rue dela Harpe, Rue St. Andre des Arts. Boule- vard St. Germain is %;:ln'v to ruin many in Rue de ’Ancienne Comedie, Ltue de Seine, and the neighboring streets. ], too, have my dag, bappy QUEEN VIC’S FAMILY. Appropriate to the 57th anniversary of Queen Victoria’s birth, the London Observer remarks that “ There has, probably, never been a sover- eign of England who could look around upon so numerous a circle of descendants as Her Majesty.” Since the Prince Consort died, only three deaths have occurred in the British Royal family, and two of these have becn of children in the earliest stages of infancy, namely: the third child of the Prince of Wales, wha was Dorn on the 6th and died on_the Sth’ of April, 1571, and the child of the Princess Christian, who dicd on the 20th of last April, aged only § days. ‘The other death. that of the second son of the Princess Alice of Hesse, was the result. of an accident. The Observer speculates in this wise: *“The eldest child of the Crown Prin- cess of Germany (the Princess Royal of England) ismow 17 years of age. Her Majesty s 57 If her cldest grandchild were to marry within the next year, and have a child in the ordinary course, that child might arrive at manhood and Dave children within the next twenty years,thus maling Her Majesty a great-great-grandmothier before she renched 80 years of age. We do not say that this is probable, but it 'is by no means impassible, especinll'y as the children of the Queen have, unlike those of George the Third, all made early marringes, and it is likely that their children will follow their example.” SOMNAMBULISM EXTRAORDINARY Le Courrier de Nord of a recent date tellsa sensational story of a somnambulist. A Mme. D—, residing at her country-house near St. Amand, France, had for some time been an- noyed by numeroas petty thefts of jewelry, lace, and other articles of a similar character. Entrance to the chateau was so difficult as to be practically impossible; the fidelity of the servants of the family was beyord question, and the whole affair was one of ths most impene- trable of inysterics, when the lady's son, an officer just back from Africa, arrived at tbe house, and, being informed of the mysterious disappearances, undertook to watch for the suceessful thief. Concealing him- self at night in the corridor of the chateau, he watched till 1 o'clock, when 2 shadowy figure made its appearance, at which he presented his nistol and drew the trigger. Tle cap snapped, ut the arm was not discharged, and by the flash of the cap the officer recogaized the thicf. It was his mother. The lady wss a somnambu- list, and was in the habit of stealng nightly her own jewelry and laces, and hiding thent in a cupboard in'the corridor. Thercall the m! uables were on investigatin disco o This story may be true, or it miy be 3 French plagiarism from Barham’s tale of the officer’s trousers in the “ Ingoldsby Legenls,” e ‘A DROP OF JOY IN EVERY WORD.” FrevineroN, Hunterdon Co., N.

I thought at one time I could not be cured. Although I can but poorly express my gratitude to you, yet there is a drop of joy in every word Iwrite. Gol's blessing rest on you add your wonderful medicines is the humble prayer of yours truly, Jaxes C. BeLus. When a medicine will promptly cure such terrible eating ulcers and free the HJood of the virulent poison causing them, who can longer doubt its wonderful virtues? Dr. 2ierce, how- ever, docs not wish to place his Gollen Medical Discovery in the catalogue of quackpatent nos- trums by recommending it to cum every dis- ease, nor does heso recommend it; but what he does claim Is this, that there is but me form of blood disease that it will not cure, aad that dis- case is cancer. He docs mot reccanmend his Discovery for that disease, yet he knows it to be the most searching blood cleanser yet dis- covered, and that it will free the blod and sys- tem of all other known blood poisozs, be they animal,vegetable,ormineral. The Gollen Discov- eryis warranted by him to cure the worst forms of Skin iseases, as all forms of Blotches, Pimples, and Eruptions, alsoall Glandular Swdlings, and the worst form of Scrofalous -and Ulcerated Sores of Neck, Legs, or other parts, andall Scrofulous Diseaaes of the Bones, as White Swellings, Fever Sores, Hip Joint, md Spinal Diseases, all of which belong to scro’ulous dis- eases.
