Paris, July 23.—The Eshibition, which has ‘been tbe means of enriching so many uuscrupu- Jous hotcl-keepers and restaurateurs, is likely 10 be remembered with bitterness and sorrow by one class of the Parisian population,—the owners and tenauts of the countiess tiny build- ings that 611 the avenues and streets surround- ing the Trocadero ana the Champ de Mars. No souner did the decree zo forth for the construe- tiou of the new World's Fair thanahost of bum- ble speculators began to bid lotly for the neigh- ‘boring space. A thousand fanciful chaletssprang iuto existence, like so many mushrooms. Some were meaut for restaurants, some for shops orba- ars. sume for cafes,—the largest partof them,— and 2 uumber were soon let to enterprising jack-puddines, circus-managers, aud lHon-tamers. “And all these poor fellows counted hopefully on making fortunes. They have been CRUELLY DISAPPOINTED. The public at the 1573 Exhibition is a prudent public, little given to indulge in reckless ex- wpenditure or unseemly diversions. It has its breakfast at home, aud leaves the Champ de Mars in time to get back to ifs own house to Hinner.

Pams, July, 1575.—Paris is uudoubtedly the cleanest, bandsomest, gavest most orderly, and, in one sense, the politest of cities; in art, the richest; in shops, the most attractive: in the dress of women, the most tasteful: its bouillon- cstablishments, the cheapest; the Cafes Anglais or Tortoni, the dearest; in the necessi- tice of life, the most ecomomical; in its Juxuries, the, most extravagant. But much of jts art has been stolen; its shopkeepers are un- reliable and untruthful; its politeness is hollow and lip-serving, its dust unendurable, and its water dangerous. The automatic movements of all departments of its public service are full of the perfect order the Greeks kvew to be Heaven's first law. The Government of Parls is 5 machoe virante. By system, all movement, dustries. and rest o, of public business are conducted, and the immense value of patience taught. From the ecarnest effort of the aristocrat for a favored seat at Grand Prix, review, or fete, to the equally earnest strugzle of the workman for a three- souk seat on omuibus imperiale, everywhere one meets the SAME SYSTEMATIC, ORDEELY METHOD. Your entry into an omnibus is under (eneral Omnibus Order No. 1, and your exit by General Omnibus Order-No. % Toujonrs ie systeme.

But there 13 no pretense in the Christendim outside th: either Italy or Spain is vet abreast of other na- tions in either morality or edution. The uni- versal love of power that is at vnee a stimuius and a weukness of man, seems 1o be intensifled i the iudividual s his actual liberty is reduced or restramed citiier by necessity of workor ne- cessity of wovernment; and with the acquisition ot power by the ignorant,whether over the wom- an, the chiid, or the norse, comes too often its abuse.

Readers will recollcet the story told in the Enguirer special from Little Rock on July 3L of the shooting of Mr. J. B. McLaughlin, a lawser of that place, by one E. H. Orr, a gambler. with whom he had a dispute, and the explanation of the affair is given by the Chiel of Police. From the latter it appears that Bisbop Whipple in June iast had written to him and sent a photo- Zraph of his son, whom he expected would be there about that time, telling the Chief to ar- rest him and hold him untit his arrival. Just about this time the Chiel arrested Orr in a gambling house, and the likeness between him nd the man_whose photogravh had been seut, by Bishop Whipple was such that he detained nim, thinking he was the latter’s son, while he sent for his father. He was brought up in court on a charge of gmambling, aud, being drunk, raised such a fuss that the Judge com- mitted him for contempt of court, and it was to cetout of prison that Orr made the bargain with McLaughlin which he settled with & bul- let. THAT AWFUL PEACH-BASKET AGAIN. To the Editor of The Tribune. Doucras, Allezan Co., Mich., Aug.

Business for the day did not develop & single new feature. The banks have an abundance of money andare cheerfully meeting all the requests of all good customers. A gratifying factis that nearly all notes are promptly baid atmatunty. One of our largest banks reported not half a dozen pieces of paper laid over for 8 montn past, and they were for rood reasons mot at all connected with the ability of the makers to meet them. With such a condition of financial aifairs bankers are ulways entirely satisfied. A gradually increas- ing business is reported ns the 8cason propresses. Of this thiere is ample evidence in the relative position of eeveral of tué banks, us buyers and sellers of exchange. Some Uit for weeks past huve been large buyers uow make on ship- ments of customers nearly all they want. ‘The fact shows that the steady " flow of farm producty cnstward s beginning to tell favorably on the inan- cul condition of the West.

L~ D ooMI G0 B10,820 1t wiis complained Saturday that some new oats because they wero sweating, and claimed by ex- perts that such sweat does no harm. If the oats have not been wetted the sweat works out witnont injury to the grain. The grent commercial event of Saturday was the drop in the price of winter wheat, due to Increased offerings and a felling off in the demand. The re- ceipis at Toledo and Detroit aggregated about 289,000 bu, and the first named place was said to be Sc lower, while the shipping demand noted here the previous day had nearly disappeared. It was reported that farmers were delivering more freely in the country, and that nnmerons orders were received here to sell for future delivery, sell- ers thinking that a longer wait woulé mean lower pricee. ‘T'his weakened spring wheat in our market in svmpathy. Other maricts were steadier, provie- 10n being firm. Corn was easy. Oats and rye ex- hibited little change. The increase in tne receipts of grain made carricrs stronger in their views, and they ventured 1o hope thot the ‘ern of very low Ireights is gone by. ‘There was no noticeable change in the general characteristics of the dry goods market.

There wag an netive movement in the former at full prices, while the lutter was quiet aad ensy. Dried fruits remained dull, with prices ranging as before, though layer raisins were firmer, and prices were easier. Fish were tirm aad in good request. Prices in oils ranged the same a8 on the day before, and were steady. Leather, bagging, tobacco, coal and wuod were unchanged. Lumber was dull Saturday. The offerings of cargoes were fair, and the market weak in the ab- sence of buyers. At the yards a moderate business was done at variable prices. The wool dealers re- worted a moderate order business at unchanged prices. Lroom-corn was dull and_easy under fair stoeks fof the time of year, which holders want to reduce before the new crop isavailable. Seeds were firmer, —that is, the two lending varicties, timothy and flax, the receipts of which fall short of expectations. Ilides were steady.
