OUR PARIS LETTER. NOTABLE PICTURES IN THR SALON—CONCERT IN THE TROCADERO PALACE—STREET SCENES AND INCIDESTS—FLIGHT OF THE ARTISTS, ETC., BTC. Panis, 5th June, 1830. If one can get to the Salon early on Saturday morning, it Isa good (me to see the pictures. There Is no crowd, most of the visitors being artists and students, for it is easter for these to leave the schools on Saturday and take the quiet morning to study their favorite pictures. One might as well attempt to read all the books Written on a well-worn subject (say the origin of evil) as to examine Pe yng Ape Pic- tures In the Salon, Even the effort to many Of those which we mark in the ie as belng desirable to see only results in a weary Wandering from room to room. So the best way 4s just to stop before the portrait, or or group which attracts one’s attention, and try to lake away some impression of it. Some res tell such eloquent and touch- i han-Bouveret is one of the French painters famous for this power. His only pieture this year is entitled “An Accident.” A little boy not yet in his teens has had a bad hurt inthe hand. Some kindly nelghbors have brought him to the plain homeroom: the wound has been washed anda very attractive young doctor ts binding it skillfully, The Itttie fel- low’s face is white and tense; he feels the pain and Is faint trom loss of blood, but he will not cry out or ilinch for the world. Tne most ex- pressive figure ts the peasant mother. She can neither bear to go away nor yet to look at her Uttle lad, so she crouches near the bed in the corner hiding her face tn her apron. Tuere is a wonderful “Ishmael” by Raub, a native of Brest. The outcast lies on the bare and burning sands—a figure telling in every ime the story of utter exhaustion. One of the Very striking Scripture paintings Is the “Saul Consulting the Sorceress” by Joseph Wencker (Strasbor The “Witch of urg—pupil of Gérome ments have evoked. Saul,—hts kiugly adora- ments all in disarray, his red robe inrown aside, us band elutehing bis hatr—crouches low on one kuce, Lis lovks wildly fixed on the spectre. ‘The spirit of the old prophet stands white and Stern, Jet with no look of the grave. The flowing robes, the upratsed tn: Priesthood, and the sandalled feet speak of the ‘Other but Dot less real existence from which he been summoned. His presence 1s so clear and vivid !t terrifies the two who have dared to Call him back to earth. Luminais sends an historical picture, splen- didiy painted, and grand, if the subje:t be Father repelling.

Jules Ereton, whose beautiful country scenes, Peasant women and wheat fields have placed bim very high tn modern art, serds a wonder- fulevening scene. The figures are as simply clad and as unaffected as possible; yet there is a dignity and a poetry in them most admirable. The setiing sun, round, red and mist-veiled, sheds a lust ray on the upraised form and face Of one cr the figures, and the couching forms of the two others. They are “ weeders,” resting after their day of heavy toll.

Sitting half dreaming in a corner of the “tram wagon,” with my eyes still full of the pictures I"had been seeing, I thought one cf them must have followed me from her frame !n | the Salon and seated herself opposite.

For their benefit the large posters in Engilsh were displayed with the announcement of Monsieur Guilmant’s weekly o1 recitals at the Jace Of the Trocadero. ‘nis immense building, erected for the exposition of 6s, was at that time quite out of town and in a very Tough and unimproved part. Now the streets are all laid out around it. and large apartment buildings or the usual style are consing up close by. The grounds are beautifully laid out; the tramways ‘and stages reach it from all parts. The architecture” has never been much admired, and 1S rather of an odd and undignified kind.

A few are their way through (ologne and by the Rhine of across Germany to the far-tamed village of Oberammergau, where the Passion has been already beguo. ‘This 1880 decade of that performance has had @ hundred fold more extensive advertisement than in all its previous representations, so it 13 probable the attendance at it will be’ propor- Gonally increased.

Our common Arabic numerals, so- called, are Hindu, and not Arabic at all; ‘and Were used by the Brahmins long before the rise of the Arabs or the birth of Mohammed.

Only those who have had occasion to use the Roman or Greek numerals can fully appreciate the vast import- ance of the Hindu figures to our science antour daily life. and what a debt of gratitude we owe o the inventors of them. If Hindustan had done naught else but invent our numerals it would deserve to stand in the very front rank of human civilization. ‘The game of chess ts of Hindu origin; it {3 re- ferred to inthe Mahabharata.

How it has mage and unmade men, what colos3al fortunes have been built in a month, and haw soon have they been dissipated. Senator Sha- ron, who was sent to Virginia City by Ralston as the agent of the Bank of California, got the Ducleus of his fortune in a few months, and is now ane the richest men in the nation, his wealth being estimated all the way from’$10,- 000,000 Lo $25,000,000. Mackay Was a carman in Ophir at $4 per day; then he went to work in Buplon as foreman, and then tn Kentuck. One day as he with a number of others came off shift, J. M. Walker, who was superintendent of the mine, was talking toa knot of men about investing In a certain neighboring mine, Im- perlal, 1 think. Mackay overheard the conver sauion. He had always been a sober and indus- trious man, and he had some money. He took Walker’s advice and invested in the stock, and eventually made $100,008 which he had on de- posit in the Bank of California for several weeks before again enterihg the field. Time ran along. Fair and Mackay made two or three joint investments and always made money. ‘Then it a yisseers one day they were down in Flood & O’Brien’s “Auction Lunch” saloon, on Washington street. Flood & O’Brien were doing @ modest business, but not enough to choke them with pride. Flood had made a few thou- sand dollars in stocks and was for points, It was nearing the time for the annual election of Hale & Norcross. Fair said it they could geta lot of the stocks and proxtes for a lot more they could get the contro of the mine away from the Bank of California. They resolv- ed to do it. They put all their money tn a pool, Flood acting as broker, and bought all the stock possible. They secured proxies for enough more to centro! the election, but would have been beaten by Ralston in the end if Col. Fair had not proved his integrity in the presence of the most glitiering temptation that Ralston could offer. Fair had proxies that represented the balance of power, and he threw them as he romised, in favor of Mackay, Flood & Co. Rey never forgot it, as he retired trom bust- bess two years ago with $2,500,000. This was the beginning of the reign. Hav- ing got control of Hale & Norcross, they ped jh-up for what it was ‘worth. st snot up into the thousands, and they became millionaires in a few weeks.’ But it is now tolerably clear that they were known in Europe seme time before the ‘a Of that unfortunate monarch; and that, the; Were introduced from. ‘the Cru- frequently made of them before the Saracens became known to history. ‘To the same Source We can now trace many of our myths and legends, and much of what is called the folk-lore of Europe. Even our nursery tales, from Cinderella Little Red Riding Hood to William Tell, find their count arts ih the Sanscrit' language, and in the Hindustani, its more modern successor; and we may justly suppose that they find there their origi: also—since that language gee the explana- tion of many of them. or it seems that, after all, maby of these stories of our childhood are BOL the Meaningless narratives they appear to be, but are. in Lact, expressions of familiar nat- ural phenomena—highly figurative illustrations of the phases of the sun and moon, of the dawn, the morning star, the winds and of the spirits that were ay to reside in the air and in the celestial bodies. With such fanciful imper- sonalions of natural phenomena our primeval fathers led the evening leisure of their iirst offspring on the hig! of ancient Ary: and the stories which they told, and which wit them were readily recognized symbolisms of gaily occurrences, became with their descend- ants mere traditions, recitals whose true mean- togs were gradually lost—recitals without a moral, or with a very different one from that which gave them birth. Our very superstitions are many of them of Hindu origin. “What 1s there to which supersti- tion clings more desperately than to the norse- shoe as au emblem of good luck? Our ancestors hung it over weir doors; some of their descend- auts persist in hanging it there yet. Lord Nel ‘Son sailed into the battle of the Nile with one nailed to the masthead of his vessel. Latterly the use of the horseshoe seems to Lave received arew lease of vitality. Beauty sets it with diamonds, and wears it on her wrist, or sus- nds it around her neck. So do her sisters of industan; so have they done for unnumbered ages, But who can tell what it means, or why it should mean anything? As a horseshoe it doe= not mean anything. But the emblem was not a horseshee originally, but elther a repre- SeLtation of the crescent moon. or an adapt: ton of a symbol of nature-worship quite fami jar to the devotees of Sivain Hindustan. The one explanation ts suggested by the worshippers of Siva, the other by those of Vishnu. Either will account for tc with a reasonable degree of satisfaction; while no one ever has been able to explain why the horseshoe, as such, shoild It may be that some of us have been witnesses of a custom that prevailed some years ago, and Possibly vet prevalls, in some parts of Ireland and of the Highiands of Scotland, of kindling fires from hill to hill throughout the country on the night preceding Midsummer Day, or St. John’s Day, tie 24th of June. To this custom reference is made more than once by Sir Walter Scott. The people who kindle these fires know not for what reason they do so; though it is sometimes sald to be in honor of St. John. But why St. John should be so honored does not appear. Of course it is almost unnecessary to Say that the custom has nothing to do with St. Jobn. We now know that those fires were first Ht on the summits of the Hindu Kush Mount- ans ip honor of the God of Day by the worship- ers of Agni, the first demoralizers of the purer Vedic reiiion ot the early Aryans; and that the custom itself is a superstitious remnant of the ‘ir.

In the city proper there was a population of about 8,000 soul consisting ef miners, saloon keepers, merchants, teamsters, gamblers, and courtesans; 15 faro banks and 200 courtesans lent their attractions to the place in 1876, and I remember the laylsh- ness with which money was thrown to the dogs.

M. Parls pro- posed that public works executed by the state in the departments should be suspended on Sundays and holidays. M. Barthelemy Saint- ‘Hilaire said that M. Paris’s motion would de- prive the state of a right granted to every one, ‘that of the liberty of work. M. B. Saint-Hilatre contended thatthe true alm of M. Paris's mo- Uon was to give an unnecessary predominance to religious Influences. After & two days’ de- bate M.

She furnishes only one church to every 1,721 of population. Of other ene cities at least ten are ahead of her. ashington has one for every 932; Cleveland one for every 1,044; New Orleans one for every 1,345; Cincinnati one for every 1,350; Baltimore one for every 1,412; and Boston one for every 1,666.

Its Abbot was the first baron of the kingdom of Naples, and the administrator of a diocese composed ‘of thirty-seven parishes. Along its dependencies were four bishoprics, two principalities, twenty countship3. castles, 440 towns, 1,300 tracts of land, and 1,662 churches. At the close of the sixteeath cen. tury Its revenues were valued at 500,000 ducats. To-day the monks of Monte Cassino have barely enough to live. Their pensions from the Itallaa government amount to the small sun of 30 francs a month—paper Italian francs, énd equivalent to less than $6. —The churca should be paid for outright. This saves a great deal of subsequent trouble and heartburning on the part of congrezations. How much we hear, these days, of Martha Washington teaparties, concerts sensitional lectures, and grab bag performances, brought some'imes into the very house of God itself, to get rid cf these building encumbrances.

Dr. John Haul, A NEw Worp.—Atheous.—The Lord Bishop of Carlisle sees much harm fn the prevalent vague use of the word “atheistic” as applied to the doctrines and conclusions of natural science. He draws a valid distinction between the legiti- mate proper and logical attitude of the scien- Ufic mind toward the conception of Deity and the atheistic spirit; and he strives to mark this distinction by the introduction of a new term. He says:—“‘Jt_seems to.me that we want a new word to express the fact that all fysical science, properly so called, is compelled by its very na- ture to take no account of the being of God: as soon as it does this it trenches upon theok and ceases to be fysical science. It I might coin a word, [should say that science was atheous, d, ao ee not Le Cea Bre say, its investigations and reasonings are by ment conversant simply with observed facts and conclusions drawn from them, and in this sense 1t 1s atheous, or without recogal- Uon of God. And because It 1s so it does not in any way trench upon theism or theology, and cannot be atheistic, or in the condition of de- bying the being of God. Take the case of fysical astronomy. To the mathematician the mechanics of the heavens are in no way dif. ferent from the mechanics of a clock. It is jm nothing todo with him as such. The spring, the wheels, the escapement, and the rest of the works are all in proper places somehow, and it matters nothing to the mathematician how they came there. As a mathematician the investigator of clock-motion takes no account of the existence of clockmakers; but he does not deny their existence; he has hostile toward them: he may be on the very ferms with many of them; it may be tha‘, at the request of one of them who has invented some new movement, he has undertaken the that one near the close of his term he uy Biting is te executive chamber, when a strange man ent unannounced, mous, utmost to discover the name of its author.

On the other Sand, the writer may ee ‘hard-wor ateur, Som¢ ago about a Xk entitled “Ecce Homo.” It was a by several conductors of journals for an- thentic information as to the name of the au- thor.

When the name was Se {t_ was not through the instrumentality of the printers, Dut entirely penden em. ‘They hag faithfully kept their secret. . x the authorship of the * Waverley Novels” may be referred to at a re- Mmarkable incident of literary history. Sir Walter Scotus authorship, although known by twenty persons, including’a number of printers, Was So well concealed that the great novelist could not, even in his matchless vocabulary, find words of praise sufficient to express the ‘Sense of his eful acknowledgment and won- dering admiration for the matchless fidelity with which the mystery had been preserved. There ig another les of secrecy—that re- lating to the careful supervision of contidential Public documents, books ee for secret so- clettes, and the author oi) of articles or - phiets, as already refer: Spee paeert ‘ ire prematurely published in newspapers the coy y is obtained from some leaky or venal of- ficlal, and not from any of the printers who set up or work off the original. A case of this kind occurred a year or two ago, wherein a conven- Uon between this country and another power Was revealed to one of the evening newspapers. In the Foreign office, at Whit there is a ar of printers always at work, and if these men liked they might let out secrets of the most momentous kind, any one of which would, perhaps, in these days of journalistic competition, be worth a few hundred pounds. But such a dereliction of duty has never yet oc- curred; it was a clerk, and not a compositor, who betrayed his trust. Most honorable to the profession is the story ot Harding, the printer, who bravely bore im- prisonment rather than reveal the authorship of the celebrated ‘Drapier’ letters. The printer sat in his cell calmly refusing the entreaties of his friends to divulge the name of the writer, Dean Swift, a church magnate, and a great wit, who dressed himself in the disguise of a low Irish peasant, and sat by, listening to the noble retusal and the tender importunities, only anxious that no word or glance from the unfor- pate Spyerny reveal oe mag was bent so’ely upon securing his own safety al the expense of the other: he cowered before the legal paneer which Harding boldly confronted. ‘The world has unequally allotted the meed of fame to the two combatants. The wit and the pees both nay the battle for the liberty of he press until the sepse of an outraged com- munity released the typographer from the peril go nobly encountered. In thousands of other instances similar fidel- ity has been exhibited.” In short, itis part of the professional honor of a printer not to dis- close, either wantonly or from venal motives, ae yen of any office in which he is em- loyed. There is also the allegiance which printers pay to their chief, in not divulging important intelligence. In’ some cases @ compositor 1s necessarity intrusted with an item of news which would be negotiable immediately, and worth pounds to him. Seldom or ever 1s there @ betrayal of trust in this way. The examina- ‘tion pay printed so extensively in London, are of the most tremendous importance to cer: tain classes, who would pay almost any sum to obtain the roughest proof the night before. An instance of this kind occurred quite recently. A printer was “got at,” and promised a consider- able amount of money for a rough root. What was his course of action? He iply informed the authorities, and the Hae was punished. It was another and a creditable example of how well and honorably kept are the secrets of the printing office. Beds and Bedclothes. ‘The kind of bed on which the body should Test isa question on which there ts extreme divergence of opinion. Whenever we leave our ow n bed to go 10 sleep elsewhere, in a hotel or in the house of a friend, it is almost certain we shall find a bed differing from that to which we are eccustomed. We may finda bed of down 0 soft that to drop into it 1s like dropping into light dough; we may find a soft feather ved, or asoit mattress, or a spring mattress, a mode- rately hard mattress, or a mattress hearly as bard as the plank bed sometimes found ta prisons, These differences are determined by the taste of the owner of the bed.witnout much reference to principle, or to the likings of any one elee in the worid—not a very good or satis- factory state of Cer There ought to be scme principle for ge ce in a trial so solemn a8 (hat which settles the mode in which our Bees shall rest for athird of our mortal ex- tence, Itis hard to fixon definite principles, but there is one principle, at any rate, which ma) be relied on, and which, when it ts unders! goes a long way toward solving the question of the best kind of bed for all sleepers. The prin- ciple is that the bed, whatever it be made of, should be so flexible, if the term may be used, that all parts of the body may rest upon it equally. 1t ought to adapt itself to the outline of the body in whatever position the body may be placed. The very hard mattress which Yields nothing, and which makes the body rest on twoor three points of corporeal surface, is at ence excluded from use by this principle, and no imposition ought to be excluded more rigor- ously. On the other hand, the bed that is so soft that the body is enveloped in it, though it may be very luxurious, is too oppressive, hot and enfeebling; it keeps up a regular fever, which can not fail to exhaust both physical and mental! energies, and at the same time it really does not adapt itself perfectly to the outline of the bod, ‘The a kind of bed, taking everything into consideration, is one of two kinds. A fairly soft featier-bed laid upon a soft horse-hair mat- tress, or a thin mattress laid upon one of the elastic steel-spring beds which have lately been so ingeniously constructed of small connected Springs that yleldin a wave-like manner to every motion. It 1s useless to try to write out the Ume-honored old feather-bed and mattress, but the new aa bed is likely to be the bed of the future. It fulfills every intention or flexibility; 10 is durable; it with the bed- stead, as an actual per of it, and it can never be a nest or receptacle of contagion or im- ty. 2 On the subject of bed-clothes, the points that have most to be enforced are that heavy bed- clothing is always a mistake, and that weight in no true sense means warmth. The light down quilts or coverlets which are now coming into neral use are the greatest improvements that fave been made, in our time, in regard to bed- clothes. One of these quilts takes well the place of two blankets, and they cause much less fatigue from weight than layer upon layer of blanket covering. As to the actual quantity of clothes which should be on the sleeper, no rule of numbers or quantities can be down, because different le require such different amounts. Never- Ehelese, ere is one very good practice which every mn can learn to apply. It should be the role to learn so to adapt the clothing that the body is never cold and never hot while under the clothes. The first rule 1s usually followed, and need not be dwelt on; the last is too com- monly broken. It is @ practice too easily ac- quired to sleep under s0 much clot that the becomes excessively heated, rishly heated. This condition gives rise to exhaustion, to — dreams, to headache, dyspepsia, and to constipation. It is so injurious that it is better to sleep with too little than with too much clothing over the body.
