It was announced, to the dismay of millions,
in the report of the Liberal meeting at Guild
hall, against the Irish Church, that in a fight
between Sir W. Rose and Mr. Beales, the hat
Of the latter had been orushed.
We were stunned and shocked for two days.
But on the third Mr. Baalos wrote a letter to
the papers, and it contained these "words of
sunshine:"
"It Is not true that My Hat was crushed."
That was not all. Anxious completely to
allay our feelings, and restore us with the
noney of comfort to the balm of blisa, Mr.
lieales, as kind as he is great, added.
It was not even Damaged."

DISRAELI'S DISPENSATION.
O Dizzy, my darling, when next a libation
You pour with the Taylors, so gladsome and
free,
Don't prate, If you love me, about Dispensa
tion, For that's not a word for yourself or for me.
When a gentleman spouts for hU own recrea
tion, One wouldn't be hard on a firework phrase,
Hut the canting and Jtecordlatx word Luspeusu
tlou Is that fitting stuff for these cynical days?
If you meant it in fun it's a mere deseoration.
If earnest, my boy but you're not suolt a
loot;
What certain religionists call Dispensation
Is something that never was taught lu your
school.
You want to set going a Church agitation,
Well, pixy out your game with each weapon
But the humbug that calls lobby votes Dlspen
cation,
Old J?unch, the great Umpire, 's unable to bear.
Assert, if you like, that a dread tribulation
Will follow the full of John Manners and you;
But don't call a vote a divine Dispensation,
Because you 're aware that the thing is untrue.
Juneh likes your smart books for your keen
detestation
Of hypocrite howl that you christened a Oru,
But Taper and Tadpole ne'er roared Dispensa
tion When Proteslaut votes were the daarest to
buy.
I'll end with a hint this unpleasant Jobation;
If oft you display suoli au absence of Nous,
You'll get what the Catholics call Dispensation
From paying the penance of leading a House.

An old and weather-worn trapper was re
cently seen sauntering along the main street
of one of our Western villages. Pausing in
front of a meeting-house for a moment, he
went in and took his seat among the congrega
tion. The preacher was discoursing on the text
of "the sheep and the wolves," and had evi
dently been drawing a contrast between the
two subjects. Says he: "We who assemble
here from week to week and do our duty and
perform our part are the sheep; now who are
the wolves?" A pause, and our friend the
trapper rone to Lis feet: "Wa'al, stranger,
rather than see the play stopped I will be the
wolves 1" The preacher was vanquished.

"I'll tell you what," said the applioant,
"your executors will not be put to that ex
pense." In a certain family a pair of twins made
their appearance, and were shown to their
little sister o four years. It happened that
whenever a rather prolific cat of the house
had kittens the prettiest were saved and the
rest drowned. When the twins were shown
the child by their happy father, she looked at
them earnestly, and at length, putting her
little finger tip on the cheek of one of them,
looked up, and said, with all the seriousness
possible, "Papa, I think we'll save this one."
Two French aotresses recently engaged in

A Candid Bankbupt. At a recent examina

lu tbc Rue de Baudri'jcurt, and conotAin of a
row of eeventrrn huts, each cornprli-ine a tingle
apartment, with a tmall square prtch of earth in

and purka, as he cal's them. At the cl e eatei
are thn e or tour chltlonnier. male and t(!ial.',all
with lighted pipes In their mouth, lanterns and
hooks In their baiids, and tbeir baskets, which
they jocosely nye cabriolets' or cschPmircs

to the iiiaf-cnline or feminine gender, already
swung on tbelr back', about to sally forth on
tbeir mehtly routds. These arc the early birds
ot the ci'e, tor most of Its inhabitant are still
snoring on their uue'enn couches, sleeping otf
the efl'ecta of the day's customary debauch.
we drove to the Hue National, by
far the worst atnoua the principal streets of the
quarter. It abounds with low wine shop', and
bristles with fcoldiers and policemen. For tbe
accommodation ot the former there i a guard
house, with a eeutry always pacing up and
down, and several soldiers lounging in front.
MakinB our way with difficulty throuurh a crowd
of hali-drucken men and women, we euter s low
cabsret, called the 'Brasvrle Alfacleune,' where
we pay five sous each at a small piacou-hoic, aud
receive tickets good tor that amount of drink,
and ndmittinir us to the ball-room, a low. dinzy
aportincnt in the rear, with an orchextra ot live
prrlormere, all verging towards Intoxication aud
all in their shirt sleeves. Tue propriety of rais
ing the orchestra several feet from the ground
has obliecd the proprietor to make an opeolng
In the low ceiling of the ball-room tor tbe
heuos of tbe musicians, which, in consequence,
aie tip on the first floor whlie their legs rest
below. Some twenty or thirty couple aro
daucingT and as many more are seated at
narrow wooden tables, smoking and driuktnir.
The men are nenriy all jounir, and their part
ners are ior the most part girls, who have
about them a certain slovenliness not common
to French girls even of the very poorest cla!.
On remarking upon this, our guides expl itn
that the company are almost exclusively Al?a
ctans employed in the neltfhboniitf sugar fac
tories; aud that this purt'cular cabaret, where,
as may be supposed, beer is the staple drink,
is their fuvcriie haunt. Tbe din is some.htrjg
tearful, and 'rows' are continually occurring in
fpitc of the presence of the customary couple
ot ooldiers posted at places of this descriptun
to p; esprve order.
"One of the police atrents pointed oit to us a
brutal-looking jouna; tcilo who hnl recently
uudeisi ne six months' imprisonment for bitinsr
one ot the soldiers on dy here in a savao
manner holding on with his teeth with such,
tenacity that they were obliged to beat hlru
over the head with their seaboards to force him
to relinquish his hold. At tbc same moment a
difi ute arose between a co'iple of men, who
after expending all the expletives they wt-re
acquainted with, fell to blows, theu drew their
knives, and thereupon were immediately
ejected into the street by tbe guard. They
were quickly followed by several of the.r
partizaiis, and ere lout; the melee be
came general. Iu another instant blood
would have been drawn, but a couple of ser-gents-de-ville
made their appearance. Instantly
voices are subdued and kuivcs concealed, tor
every man amont; the crowd kuowsthat in a
couple of minutes, It necessary, a picket of sol
diers would be on the spot to march them all of
to tbe neighbonug guard-house, where the pun
ishment would be toinethins severer than a tine
ot five shillings. The imperial government
represses with a strong hand anything Lu the
shape of a street disturbance.
"Mearly opposite the Alsiciun sugar bakers'
boll is the bill-room ot the Auvcrgnits or porters
d'eau the water-carriers of Paris. The eutrance
to tbe ball-room is through a low, dirty, wine
shop, with a counter at one side, and a kitchen
railed oil at the other, where red herrluss aud
other dalntiss are temptingly displayed, and
acainst the walls of which a number of rabbit
skins are hanging, first, as a sort of guaranty of
the nature of the viands vended at the eitaulibh
ment; and secondly, in the hope ot inducing
some speculative customer to make a bid lor
them. Tbe latdlord is engaged in serving out
drams as lust us be cun fur tne company in the
ball-room, which Is of the very worst descrip.
tion. 1 be men are en blouse sale, or grimy shirt
sleeves, while such of the women as do not
' wear white caps have their heads bound up
with fpotted red or yellow handkerchiefs.
Perched up in a little rniled pulpit, with a
couple of dintiy toy tricolor llaes waving over
his head, is a stout red faced musician
punipiiig with more than tiaelic energy
at a bagpipe, and giving time to tbe dance with,
his heavy wooden sabots. The dancers dance
with diabolic fury, but still with elephantine
movements, raising their feet as though th'jy
were i-hod with lead. This was not merely
the esse with the Auverpnats, who danced in
sabot", which, ot course, have neither tbe
ligntoefs, the flexibility, nor the noiaelesencis
ot the dancing pump, but was common to the
entire company, male aud female alike. Pinned
up against tbe wall ot the ball-room I uoticed a
copy ot the Auvergnat newspaper, a small fiheet
started by three or lour Parisian journalists,
natives of Anverrne, no doubt, and proud of
being thoupbt so, for they sauntered aloug the
Boulevards in bats like those invariably wo:n
by the Par s porters d'eau. These water carrie s,
are not so clean as their constant contact with
the purifying element ought to make them. It
is commonly understood that one cannot touch
pitch without being defiled; Auvcrgnats cannot
touch even water without a similar result, appa
rently. "Tbe origin of tbe Cite Pore, the mo9t noto
rions cbiflonniers' baunt in all Paris, is some
what curious. It occupies a long, narrow strip
of pround which formed part Of the domain of
the old chateau of Uellevue, converted many
years since into an Euglish brewery, of which a
certain ndraira' of the Red was proprietor. The
enterprise f .lied, everything was sold off, and
&I. Pore became tbe owner of tbe ground, a
fiortion of which he desired cither to sell or to
et on bulldln ' leases. One day, to his surprise,
a cbitfonuicr called ou bim, basket ou back and
hook in hand, and informed him that he desired
i to rent a piece ot laud. On beiug asiced tor
1 what purpose, he reolied to bulla a country
bouse toi his wife and family. Tne luter view
' ended in a leane being drawn up lor to
many square jards of ground at aoout four
and a half pence per lard per annum.
M. Dore's chitlonnlcr was laborious, in
telligent, and courageous. At daybreak
next day be and his numerous family were
at work. Tin v du out the foundations of the
hcuse, and at ten sous the canload purchased
anv ouantitv ot materials from the demolitions
goin forward under the auspices of the prelect
of iheSeine. With this material they commenced
to build; but all their tktll and labor could not
keep pace with the inten e anxiety they felt 10
occupy tne house; so without wultmg to con
struct it alter t ny recular fashion, they put up
the outer walls in the beet way they could,
thiew a piece of tarpaulin over the top. covered
this with earth, In which they sowed nastur
tiums aiid couvolvuli, and to made a flower
garden on tbe r o. Their friends came to visit
lliem; n I rs cMtlonnter like to herd together,
and there Is much in the force of example, the
whole ot M. Dore's laud was lented, aud a cite,
such ax it is. suddenlv appeared there.
"On the side of the Boulevard d'ltalie the Cite
TJore is bounded by a belt of low cabarets, at
wtiicti a fiery kln1 of brandy known as 'c.uuphre,'
or when duly seasoned with Cayenne rtep icr, as
catepolilne, Is the staple drink. There are at
least twenty of these dunkiug shoos to one
baker's. At this hour, however, the guests are
far from numerous; as it is tbe rule of the c'ltf
lonuttr to woik by n eht, it I by day that he
gets drunk. The proprietor of one ot the caba
rets Jocosely notifies iu largo letters over his
doorway that 'entrance is tree.' Another ex
hibits a comical picture of a pig in h's win
dow, with au inscription setting forth that
poik can be had at all hours,' in proof of which
'here is tbe pip.' Tbe cite can be entered on the
side of the boulevard up several dark narrow
pasages conducilug to fliuhts of break-neck
stepe. 'Veils la Chaussee d'Antiu et les bonle

heavily laden baeket on bis back be mada the

The Supper of the rilgrlniB.
Mrs. Jalia Ward Howe, in her entertaining
book, "From the Oak to tbe Olive," thus de
scribes "The Supper of the Pilgtluas," as prac
tised in Borne:
Faster goes tbee shows than one can de
scribe them. On Oood Friday evening we at
tempted only to see the supper of the leniala
p.liinit nt the 'irinila det felegrini. This,
atrain, I undertook for the neophytes' ike hav
ing injeell once witnessed the august ceremony,
llrrc, as everywhere at this time, we found a
crowd of black dresses, with aud without vails,
wbtch, on this occasion, ae optional. Another
mob of women, small but energetic; another
rush to see what, under oilier clicuniHtnee-, we
should bold to be but asorry tight. Tbe uilerlms
are waited upon bv an astocia'.ion of ladies, who
wear a sort of femin'ne overall in ;car!et cotton,
nearly concealing aoress, usually black, of ordi
nary wear. Tbcy are abo distinguished br a pic
torial badye, rapierentlng, I think, th Ka,ter
Lamb in some connection. Some ot these ladies
are of princely lamily, others of rsuk merely
civic. Princess Massimo, ot 6rst-ratc pretentions,
keeps tbe inner entrance to tbe rites, aud accords
it only to a limited number in turn.
We tumbled down the dividing stiira in the
usual Indecorous manner, and walk through
two rooms, in each ot which tbe pilgrims sit
with their feet lu tubsot water, the aticndaut
Indies being employed either in scrubbing them
clean or in wiping tbetn dry. AU were work
ing women from the couutry, their laces moslly
empty ot thought and ruae with toll. Some
ot ihe heads were not without character, and
would casilv have made, with their folded bea 1-
dretses. a ucnie picture. In general, they and
their attire were as rough and uniutcrcstiug as
women and tbelr belongings can De. A num
ber ot them carried lniants, who?e appearance
also invited the cleansing ministratiou, which
did not include them, lu either room an eccle
siastic recited prayers lu Latin, and a pretty
vouBg lady at intervals ra'tica a box, the signal
for the participants to make the sign of tbe
crofs, which they did in a business-like manner.
From thts lavanaa we pass to otber room, la
which tbe supper tables were iu proccas of
preparation, Ihe materials for the meal were
divided into portion". To each one was allottod
a plate of salad and sardines, one of bacala, or
fried Ealt fibh, two small leaves of bread, aud a
little pitcher of wine, together with figs and
oranges.
The red-irowned mlnistrants bestirred them
selvis in dividing and arranging these poriious
with much apparent good nature. Many of
thm wore diamond car-rings, and one young
lady whom we did not see at work was adorned
as to tbe neck with a rich collar of jeweled
lockets, an article of the latest fashion. All of
these Indies are supposed to be princesses, but
several ol them talked house gosMp in homely
Italian. To us the time teemed long, but at
length arrived tbe minesira lu a huge kettle.
This universal Italian dii-h is a watery soap,
containing a paste akin to inuccaroni. And now
the pilgrims, having bad all the washing they
could endure, cme in to tuke possession of the
goods prepared for them. Thore of the same
family tiled to sit toeeiher, but did not always
manage to do so. For every babe a double
portion Is allowed, and the coin (ten cents) re
ceived at departure is also doubled.
We bad feared lest the pilgrims might have
found tbe presence of numbers a source of em
barrassment. But it did not prove so. They
attacked their victuals with the most practical
and evident enjoyment. The babies were ted
with minestra, flth, salad, and wine. Ot these
one was two weeks old, and its mother had
walked four days to get to Rome. Each
pili-rim carried cither a bottle or a tin cantceu,
into which tbe superior waitiug woman de
canted the wine allowed, that they might carry
it bon e with them. A Latin grace was re
hearsed before they fell to. Cardinal aud
monsignori were seen, here and there, talking
with triends among the spectators. Observing
that pilgrims eat much like other people, we
lett them still at table, and came away, to find
the Prince Mass-imo, in pink cotton, at the
bottom of the staircase, aud a stupid Swiss,
with ill-managsd bayonet, guarding the outer
entrance.
