BEFORE THE BLOSSOMING.
A subtle charm of tronri
Is in these earliest smile of Korlnjr,
Fo though the frost is on the wood,
And cbill air down the valleys wincr,
A nceret coll ot jov Is wound
In touches ol ethereal flmrer,
And then, with tenderness unbound,
It quivering fades, jet faintly lingers.
For in the intervals
Of whirling sleet and dreary rains,
The mellowest of sunlight falls,
And floods the silver-misted plains;
And rills in vaporous slioen leap on
With ampler, nmddf r pulse than ever,
As foaming, o'er the vantage stone,
Or widening to the plashing river.
I looli around the fields
The or sts with their clear-lit aisles,
Tfco skv. and creamy cloud that yields
Its shittiofr, sudden frowns and smiles-
But see no altered spnv, or spear
Of April grasses, to express
This advent of the floral year,
Whose breath is life and happiness.
Storms swirl In the woodland ways
The sweet, bright glinnn'rings noon return,
But brighter, through ibe lcngth'niner days,
On fproutlng sod and branch they burn.
And then I know these halcvon drcain,
This secret play ot still delight,
Are but a blosoniry th-it gleams
Out Iroru the heart on fields ot light.

THE WORLD'S FA!3 A? PARIS.
BVEMNO TELEGRAPH SPECIAL COUKKSrONDENCE.
Takis, March IS.
The admission of the puhlio to the works
going on at the Exhibition having been found
to he a great hindrance to the work
men now occupied on the building iu the
Champ de Mars, the Imperial Commission
decided that it should be closed after Sunday
last against the admission of all ordinary
paying visitors till the great opening. This
admission of visitors has been a source of
much annoyance to the chief foreign Commis
sioners for some time past, and it was only
after their repeated complaints that the Im
perial Commission acceded to their demand.
It must ho remembered that, between work
men of all kinds, exhibitors, exhibitors' stall's,
and officials, there are at least 8000 people
who have work in the building and grounds
around, and when to those are added 1U,000
idle visitors, all of whom, of course, congre
gate where there is most doing, and where,
therefore, they are least wanted, the incon
venience becomes serious, and just now,
when the period comes near for the opening,
is doubly felt.
To prevent the intrusion of these prome
naders, many of the foreign courts closed
themselves in, or rather forbade entrance to
all not actually employed ou their own works.
This rule or plan, however, led to a fresh in
convenience, a3 those employed in the build
ing found it difficult to get about at all with
out making a considerable detour from one
part to the other. '
Everything is still dreadfully behindhand;
however, the English court is fast advancing
now. It is not a subject of entirely unmixed
satisfaction, for exhibitors, visitors, and all
who enter it see, with a feeling of surprise,
the English certainly with unconcealed annoy
ance, that nothing is intended to be done to
improve either its management or appearance.
It threatens, beyond all question, to bo the most
ill-arranged and unsightly of all sections in
the structure; indeed, -to speak plain truth, it
seems no more like a national court than a sort
of exhibitional lumber room, to which all ill
fitting, ill-matched, and ill-sorted cases have
been banished by common consent.
These remarks may prepare British visitors
for the disappointment they are certain to
undergo when they enter it; but I fear that
all I could say would really fall short of the
effect of what the completed aspect of this
portion of the show will be. It was always
understood, when the whole court was painted
of the sickly drab green which most disfigures
it, and makes its poor, heavy constructive out
lines seem poorer and more heavy thau ever,
that it was intended, before the cases came
in, to relieve its very inappropriate hue with
lines of lighter and more varied colors. Such
a change could not, indeed, make the struc
ture handsome, but it at least would help to
conceal many of its most glaring deformities.
At the last moment, however, it has boen de
termined to leave the color as it is, and now,
I fear, it must remain so, an eye-sore and
national discredit to the English taste. When
it is recollected that the British did so we in
the coloring of both their great Exhibitions,
the falling off on this occasion appears all the
more conspicuously painful.
Some very heavy machinery and goods have
arrived from Trussia, including Krupp's great
works in steel. The guns, which are of
immense size, are yet not turned out with that
exquisite completeness of finish one always
looks to find iu the ordnance which Whitworth
and Armstrong send forth from their shops.
A trunnion piece, a single forging for a gun,
weighs about ten tons; and this I presume to
' be meant for the great steel cannon. Some
very fine English locomotives are also in
their places. The best of them have either
been made for, or since their completion have
been purchased by, the l'acha of Egypt. Ilis
Highness seems to have a liking for the best
engines of the kind, and in 1802 bought
nearly all the finest shown. A trophy speci
men of English brick in the British depart
ment is attracting much attention. It is a
lofty screen built entirely of the finest brick
' work, relieved by bas-relief panels and beau
tifully decorated columns of terra-cotta.
There will be nothing like this for worknian
E,lr in the whole Exhibition. Indeed, the
French look upon it as the very perfection of
what Buch work should be. The terra-coua is
as sharp and clear as if it had been cast In
brome, while the colored bricks are laid with
' the neatness and finish of cabinet work.
Mr Beresford Hope's archaeological court,
which is now advancing, will also have some
Diqne Bamples of terra-cotta. The French
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY,
workmen never seem tired of looking at and
praising the English brickwork.
The groups of Eastern courts, Turkoy,
Egypt, Turin, Morocco, Siam, Japan, China,
are now almost completed. They are purely
Eastern in their style and' architecture.
The central garden of all is getting on
very fast, and will be ready and even bloom
ing by the first of April. iNot so, however,
with the outside park, which is still in a very
backward state.
Decidedly, the Oriental, Russian, and Swiss
buildings will be among the most attractive
here. On the French side a little town of the
most extraordinary structures, like gigantic
bird-cages, is being run up.
" Among the buildings in this part is to be a
very handsome temporary theatre, which will
give performances, both tragic and lyric, twice
a day one in the afternoon, from 3 till 7, and
one in the evening from 8 to 11.
CITY INTELLIGENCE.
t)U ADDITIONAL LOCAL ITEMS SUB OUTSIDK PA8BS.J
A Mi'RM'uous Assault by a Hckhlah. Mr.
Joseph Kolby, pawnbroker, residing at Car
bon and buuttt streets, was inspecting his pre
mises just before retiring on Saturday evening,
about 11 o'clock, when he discovered that a
second-story door, which led out upon some ad
joining rooip, was open. This created imme
diate suspicion, for the door had always been
barricaded. After a discussion with his wife.
Mr. Kolby was convinced that somebody had
ellectcd an entrance, but thinking that the luir
glur had escaped, he obtain"d a hatchet, nails,
etc., and fastened the door, and was proeeeoing
through the house when the sight of a strange
pair ot boots again convinced him that some
body had entered and was at that lime in tu
house. Kolbeck made an immediate search of
the premises.
At that moment an individualinhis stocking
feet appeared from behind a dress which was
hanging on the wall, and with a jimmy struck
Mr. Kolby over the right eye,inllicting a severe
wound. Mr. Kolby then turned on the burglar,
and the two men had a rough-and-tumble
light. The burglar being more muscular and
rather stoutly built, managed to overpower
his victim. Mrs. Kolby interfered, and she
was dealt a blow on the forehead. The cry of
murder was then raised, and the burglar
made his way down stairs, forced open a back
door and made an entrance into the stables,
l'olicemon Carmichael, Young, and O'Meara
heard the cry of murder, and at once ran to
the assistance of the pawnbroker and his wife.
Officer Carmichael, with a pistol in one hau l
and a light in the other, ascended to the loft
of the stable adjoining, followed by
his brother officers, and there the
burglar was secreted, lie was taken out and
escorted to the Second District Station House,
where he gave the name of James W. Kelley,
and said he was twenty-four years of age, that
he was from Newbern, N. C, and having been
arrested a couple of weeks ago, ho considered
that he had lost his character, and concluded
to go at stealing. Mr. Kolby had, previous to
retiring, placed a sum of money under his
pillow. The burglar stated at the Station
House that he saw Mr. Kolby place the money
under his pillow, and had he gone to sleep he
would have stolen it and made off. The pawn
broker is severely, although not dangerously
hurt. 1
Police Items. William Gilbert had a partial
hearing at the Central Station, on the charge of
being concerned in the theft of $500 from a resi
dence No. 1440 Callowhill street. The testimony
was that defendant and several other men were
seen lurking about the neighborhood on the
evening of the robbery. He was held for a lur
thcr hearing, this aiternoon.
John hawcPtt was arrested, charged by Fire

dwelling No. 1322 Hancock street, occupied by
Robert Crummon and others, twelve persons in
nil being on the premises when the act was com
mitted. Oil had been freely used by the incen
diary, and several ot the inmates made a narrow
escape from suffocation. The defendant was
held for a further hearing on Tuesday aiternoon.

Thomas Clark, alias "Little Joe," was arrested
yesterday morning, about 9 o'clock, for picking
the pocket of a lady named Harrington, residing
at No. 311 Gaskill street, of a portmonnaie, con
taining about forty dollars. The theft occurred
iu St. Mary's Church, Fourth street, above
Spruce, at the time the congregation was
assembling for worship. A eentleman who was
standing near Mrs. Harrington saw the accused
remove the pocket-book, and immediately
seized him and handed him into the custody of
Policeman Ferguson, ot the Third District.
The portmonnaie was found lying on the floor,
near the spot where Clark was standing. He
wus locked up to await a hearing.

ELECTRICAL INSTITUTE,
. No. 1220 WALNUT Street.
During our Investigations In the treatment of dis
ease In Its various forms by the ngonoy Of electricity,
we have obtained very many Valuable and Btartliug
frtcts, which, added to the previous though limited
inlormailou possessed by other and less fortunate
operators, place us beyond all previous knowledge of
this mysterious agent. During the course of our prac
tice we have treated and cured, through the know
ledge thus gained, many thousands, and by meuniof
our new discoveries have established ourselves as the
most successful Medical Electricians In this country
or Europe,
Electrical investigation has proved that the Jtinmarj
body acts on the principle of the galvanic Watery.
The brain, mucous and serous membranes, the skin
tissues, and fluids, constitute the negative and posi
tive forces, and every action, whether mental or phy
sical, Is the result of these antagonistic forces. Diges
tion, respiration, circulation, secretion, and excretion
are due solely to electrical Influence. There Is a polar
action established throughout the nervous system
which connects with every part of the body.eHtniilhh
hg oud preserving a proper balance of tho oleclrical
element which conatltutes health, and a disturbance
of which causes disease. There are strictly but two
conditions ot disease one ot Inllammatlon or posi
tive; the other, weak, debilitated, negative and as
electricity contains those two conditions In the action
of the positive and negative currents, all we have to
do Is to neutralize the disease aud restore proper
healthy action.
Among the chronic diseases In which electricity has
been and Is dally being, by our agency, of the greatest
utility, a cure being rapidly effected after the failure
ot all oilier means, are:
1. Epilepsy, Chorea, or St. Vitus' Dance, Paralysis
(Hemplegia). Neuralgia, Hysteria, Nervousuess, Pal
pliaiioii of the Heart, Locklaw, elc.
i. Sore Throat, Dyspepsia, Diarrhoea, Dysentery,
Obstinate Constipation, Hemorrhoids, or Jilies,
Bilious, Flatulent, and Painter's Colic, a id all a tl no
tions of the Liver and Spleen.
3. Catarrh, Cough, luilueiiza, Anthma wbe
caused by organic lieases of the heart), Broucti .
Pleurisy, Pleurodynia, or Kheumalisiu of the Cu
Cousiimtillon in the early stages.
4. Gravel, Diabetes, and Kidney Complaints.
5. ltlieumallsm. Gout, Lumbago, still Neck, Spinal
Curvature, Hip Diseases, Cancers, Tumors (those last
mimed always cured without pain, or plasters lu any
lor in).
. Uterus Complaints, tnvolvlng a mal-posltion, a
Prolapsus, Autruverslon, Betrovorsion, lullamma
lion, Ulceration, aud various other attentions.
For information desired upon other diseases, appli
cation may be made at the ollice, or by letter.
Mrs. BECKWITH has entire charge ol the Ladles'
Department, and all delicacy will be used towuids
those who entrust themselves to her care, lu female
diseases, It is universally successful in her hands.
For the convenience of those desiring information,
we give (by permission) a few names of person
