SUICIDE OF AN ACTRESS —+—__—_ An American Girl's Method of Laying a Ghost and Ducking a Ventriloquist. Dierpy, July 16, 1873, THE FRENCN FLAG VERSUS THE BRITISH, The three gaunt horses who jogged me to Tréport yesterday withdrew me thence this morning, and I reached Dieppe in time to hear, over midday break- fast, a full, exciting and minutely inaccurate ac- count of two events whick have stirred the minds ofall the visitors during my absence. The first should be told in heroic verse, as many feet long as possible, for it concerns nothing less than a dispute between the British and French flags, as repre- sented on the one hand by the wife ana daughters ofa noble soapboiler from Lambeth and on the other by a sub-licutenant of the —— regiment of in- fantry in garrison here, Celiarius, the dancing mas- ter of the Rue Vivienne, in Paris, removes himself and flddie to Dieppe every Summer, acts as Bean Nash of the place and gives a ball at the hot batns on the Place du Théftre on Saturday evenings. They are not bad bails, for, as the customsiat French public entertainments, people are not required to be formally introduced to each other, so that a man invites what ladies he may fancy to dance with him, The noble soapboiler’s wife apparently ignored or resented this loose habit, for when the gallant young French oMicer tripped up to her daughter and smirkingly craved the honor of a waltz BRITISH PROPRIETY BRISTLED TO THE CHARGE, The Lambeth mother eyed the audacious French- man’sred trousers, his yellow-collared tunic, waxed mustache, the glare in bis eye and the midland parting of his hair, and gasped:—“Commong osay vooparlay ah mah Jeet sonzs oon angtroduction?” Now there ts something very terrific in the choler of your British matron, whose Lambeth-born no- tions of etiquette have been outraged, so the poor little Frencliman stood with his mouth open, 48 thongh Home, the spirit wrapper, had conjured up the Gorgon jor his destruction; and if he did not shrink bodily into his red pantaloons it is doubt- logs these garments were already too tight for him.

BEDFORD SPRINGS, Pa., August 8, 1873. While wandering along the line of the great Pennsylvania Central Railroad your correspondent happened a night at the old town of Huntingdon, on the banks of the Juniata, about midway be- tween Philadolphia and Pittsburg and in the heart of the iron ore region of Pennsylvania, Itis the home of John Scott, the representative of Tom Scott's road in the Senate of tne United States, and of R, Milton Speer, who represents the district in the House of Representatives. Thinking that prob- ably these men could give the HeRaLp readers some new ideas and facts about political matters in the Keystone State, I called at their residences, but they were gone to Bedford Springs. It struck me that I had heard of these springs before. and yet I couldn’t recall anything which gave them impor- tance. When I returned to the hotel I ventured to inquire about the place, and it was curious to see the look of astonishment and disgust an old citizen Springs. Said he:—“Why, it cannot be that you have not heard of Bedford Springs, THE GREAT SUMMER RESORT OF THE BEST PEOPLE OF PENNSYLVANIA, which, in the days of James Bachanan, was as famous as Long Branch js now, and where, at the present time, most of the leading politicians of the State are summering.”” 1 pleaded as an excuse for my Ignorance the fact of never having seen anything of the Springs in the newspapers. At this he grew indignant, and gave the press a sound berating for its neglect of Pennsylvania’s greatest Summer resort. Continuing, he said:— “Those picayune Philadelphia papers cannot afford to send a reporter beyond the limits of Fair- mont Park or Smith’s Island, and, of course, they never have a word about Bedford, They give up their space to the sandhills of New Jersey, and try IN THE PALMY DAYS OF SOUTHERN SUPREMACY Bedford was THE SUMMER MOME OF PRESIDENT BUCHAN, standing the present day.” place; feeling, “Ji ne saut ‘The Frenca and Russians have no notion of cricket, they cor- dially detest the sea, and walking excursions are It becomes kill the time, for a man ¢.unot bsinthe during the day if he wishes to be seductive and lucid during the evening. the non-arrival of @ young Frenchman, who is generally as good as two of the horses in helping fo Soon @ note arrived in his place, setting forth his inability to come by reason have been hard pressed for amusement to resort and clear water, ® branch of tne Juniata, in the southern part of Bedford county, near the Mary- land line, In @ narrow valley between two spurs of the Alleghany Mountains. The scenery is wild and picturesque, and as the roads are good there {a ample opportunity for driving and enjoying the beauties of the country. But itis not the scenery nor the good roads that bring people to Bedford; the attraction is a spring of peculiar water said to be totally different irom any other water in the World tn its medicinal qualities, especially in its ac- tion on the organs of digestion, It is known as THE MINERAL SPRING, is situated at the base of a mountain, has a tem-_ perature of forty degrees aud dows at the rate of 4 barrel a minute. The water of this spring is tho attraction at Bedford, and go firm ta the belief in its power to recuperate the Kidneys and the liver tliat many have been coming here annually for aimost half @ century, Senator Cameron has miseed scarcely a Summer in the last thirty years, The late President Buchanan, Justice Grier and Thaddeus Stevens began visiting Bediord when Martin Van Buren was President, and made yearly Visits until the thme of their deaths. And so it ig now. Thesame people visit Bediord year aiter year, and it would seem no other place can offer them an inducement to change; and this they do, too, In the face of the most wretched accommoda- tion, There are several hot but everybody and everything centres at one knuwn as Tue Springs. ‘The Mineral Spring is on the property of this house, withia a stone’s throw of its main porch, wile the other hotels are a mile, two miles, and even fur- ther away. The Springs Hotel consists of several brick, stone and frame buildings. One of these, ‘known as “cROcKFORD." which stands off by itself, is a two story frame structure, built seventv years ago. The partitions between the rooms are of wood, some of which are whitewashed and others plain and bare.

Tuis gave Crockford a Name, and although such a thing as gambling is not now heard of, the place still keeps up its repu- twiion of being the choice quarter, THE MAIN BUILDINGS are more modern in their structure than Crock ford, but tuey are miserably furnished, There is hardly a room but has an old-time bedstead, with rope bottom; thin and scanty carpet covers the ud smiull, ten mches square looking glasses deco} the wails; the washstands are dilapid- ated, with to.let sets to matcu; lamps and candles take the place 0; gas,and the only beil on the place is a large one, used to summon the walt for meat in yo s are ten to one that there wili be no one there.

Whie in the act, two strangers rode on horseback, They had been trav. elling overlaud trom Washington and wanted rooms for the night. The you man told them he was simply a guest, and, of course, had nothing to do in the assignment of rooms, The strangers then went in search of some one with authority; bat such @ person could not be found. They were wet to the skin, the night was dark and rathy and tuey could go no jurtier, What to do fora nighi’s lodging they knew not.
