I
TEX MIITUTES IN THE PARIS BOURSE.
John F.
Graff, Esq., long and favorably
"Graybeard," of Forney's Press,
I known as
contributes a highly interesting article tinder
the above title to the current number of the
Washington Sunday Chronicle, a portion of
which we qnote:
I shall always cherish with peculiar delight
the recollections of my visit to the Old
World, and the felicity I experienced in
j mingling with its people, admiring its monn-
ments of art, architecture, and literature, and
f sauntering among its ruins. What I propose
I sow, however, is a brief description of an in
1 cident in my European experience more
q strange than pleasing my visit to the great
r Money Exchange of the French metropolis,
y or jfaiace ae ia uourse.
In accordance with my natural tendency to
violent transitions, I made it a rule while
abroad, whenever it was practicable to do so,
to witness in quick succession the great op
posite extremes. I drove through the Iiois
de Boulogne and descended the Catacouba
on the same day for precisely this reason:
In the former I encountered Parisians, gay,
dashing, superb, hilarious above ground;
in the latter I saw the disjointed skeletons of
their fathers and kindred, assorted and
shelved like the wares of a merchant, in a
Jgrim, awful, ghastly cavern of the dead.
I My visit to La Bourse was a scarcely less
C striking transition from tbe crypts of the
f iTantheon. In the latter I had examined the
tombs of Mirabau, Marat, Voltaire, and ltos-
Beau, ana ueen wen mga deafened by the
: thundering and very remarkable echoes of
the place, sounding as if the immense struc
ture was being battered to its base by suc
cessive volleys of artillery. In the former I
was about to bear, not the dead sounds of
aubterranean masonry, but, as it seemed to
tne, the living echoes of hell itself.
lirst, as the name. Bourse in French,
JJorse in German, and Birza in Ilussia, are
supposed to have their origin In the belief
that the first gathering of the kind ooourred
early in the sixteenth century at Bruges, in
Belgium, in tbe house of a M. Van dor
Bourse. This is not the only instanoe in
which the Dutch have led the van in popular
modern ideas.
The Paris Bourse is situated in the verv
heart of the city, and occupies an entire
square, with streets on its four sides, the edi
fice itself being surrounded bv a colonnade
of sixty-six Corinthian pillars, and presented
a very imposing appearance as we approached
its western front from Hue Vivienne. The
area of this structure is 212 by 12G feet, and
its four corners are embellished by statues
representing Industry, Agriculture, Com
merce, and Navigation.
The time of commenoins business at this
institution is 12 o'clock; its hour of adjourn-
i mentis r. ju.; ana as i nad learned that its
i most appalling climax was usually reached at
l'SO, I directed my driver to land me there at
: that hour. It was 120 when I arrived. The
J street in front was densely thronged with
; vehicles. It was a beautiful Ootober dav.
and for a few moments I kept my seat in the
open voiture de place, surveying the stately
edifice and the excited crowd of at least two
hundred men that surged beneath the west
ern portico. I was full fifty paoes from the
entrance, but the sound that issued from
wi Mi i n wuu nniia m -i , i 1 , 1 on
- - ...... w "I'M. ky.VJ, nun BUgOOLtU
the "ruKhing, mighty wind" employed as a
figure to describe the advent of the
' Spirit's power on the day of Pentaoost not
doubting, however, that the noise which I
heard was caused by a very different spirit.
I alighted and asoended the stern. nHAl
I through the outer throne', and nnt.nmil tha
L portals of the far-famed Exchange. I was
not an altogether inexperienced observer,
I haviig previously attended the Exchanges of
J. London and Amsterdam, witnessed the exhi
l bitions in the New York Gold Room, and
'jheard the ho lings of the Wall street bulls
land bears. But all these were like the
j,rooing of doves compared to the acoustio
if idiabolism into which I was now to be ini
f liated. As I entered the sound grew more
J violent, and when I got fairly within, the
scene was indescribable. I will not pretend
to set down what took place, as the entire
medley of incoherent sounds, unintelligibly
uttered, were to me the veriest gibberish im-
T .in ., : i . t it

I tan, the never-to-be-forgotten impression
V ben and there made upon my mind.
I The sound of the thousand voices which
I I '11 upon my ear, all pitched at a key of inf u
I riated avarice, might with one's eves closed
t have suggested the raging fury that rends in
, shivers the rigging of a ship in a hurricane at
' sea; or the awful mutteriDgs that aooompany
an earthquake or precede the eruption of a
volcano; or the submerged moanings that
issue from tbe inexplorable caverns of the
) deep; or the peals of anguish and despair
take their death-leap from a burning vessel;
or even the shrieks of the damned, quivering
on the brink of everlasting destruction ! I
say that to a blind observer this vocal med
ley might have resembled all of these sounds,
or any others outside of heaven, but it was
probably not exactly like any other thing
on earth, or in the waters under the earth. The
money-hungering chaunt of the Paris Bourse
is svi generis. Itself can be its only parallel.
Hundreds of spectators are witnessing the
mad scene from the galleries thirty feet
above. They are wise in keeping at so safe a
distance. I felt myself, on the ground floor,
like a lamb in a menagerie, and instinctively
instituted a closer vigilance over my pocket
book. There were around me at least a thou
sand active participants in the business of the
hour, and, in the dark, no living bouI would
have imagined that their deafening clamor
proceeded from human lungs. The faoes of
jthese men were to me a deeper and more
significant study than tbe pictures in the
Louvre or the relics in the Clury. Here was
Paris in a nutshell the financial princes of
the queen city of the whole earth, besotted,
maddened, blighted, cursed to moral blind-
ness, by "the root of all evil" the love of
money.
Every person in the room appeared to be
screaming his utmost, and gesticulating
threats oi immediate homicide to the man
he was speaking to. On a platform raised
some eighteen inches above the floor, and oc
cupying a large space In the centre of the
room, there were more than a hundred men,
who from some reason seemed to monoDolize
r a snecinl privilege. These men ran to and
I fro yelling like so many fiends, beating the
' air with their uplifted hands, with the per-
V - li . : j : V 1 : 1 1 n - ; .
Bpirauuii uouimg iruiu kuu ncmiuiiywu lueir
anxious faces and bald heads. I There was
nardly a man among them who had passed his
fortieth year, and yet there was not one good
head of Lair most of them were as bald as a
polibLed pumpkin. IIir, I concluded, soon
bums ont with such a furnace at iU root.
But the grand climax in not yet attained.
At the extreme end of the room, divided
from the rebt by a blight but strong railing,
were some two nunured others, whose pre
rogative it was to ao the rawling and ho vim?
par excellence, and here the bedlam of toug'iei
was still more frightful. Bight in their front
the fury raged as if the lower regions hrd
suddenly been deserted an if, in faet, a very
host of "lich men" had oome np from their
sulphurous den to make a raid on the Abra-'
hams inside the railing, rr at least to cry
aloud across the impassable railing for the
cooling draught; but as there were probably
no Lazarnses on either side of the "gulf" in
this instance, the fires in the throats of the
suppliants could only rage. I observed at
this part of tbe room that the men's eyes pro
truded farther from their sockets; that their
expression of countenance was more frantio,
and their gestures more vehement. Here
come three fellows rushing through the
crowd, looking like madmen. Rapid looomo
tion is of course impossible, and their faces
look as if their eager souls were bont upon
tusking a certain point at the peril of losing
their bodies, if not their breeches. They
have evidently just been executing orders
with limited time, and must see their princi
pals instantly or lose their commissions.
The entire spectacle here presented (con
sidering that the actors are not starving beg
gars, but men of wealth; that they are not
untutored savages, but leaders of the world's
etiquette and refinement) is the most sicken
ing commentary upon what we call "advanced
civilization" that I have ever witnessed. The
very sight of it robs one's nerves of electric
force; and after enduring the torture for ten
minutes I made my way out as if escaping
from hell.
In the comparative quiet of the street the
reoollection of the Catacombs, with their
myriads of human bones quietly laid at rest,
was an agreeable relief, and it ooourred to me
that to the members of the Paris Bourse this
subterranean receptacle of the dead ought to
be a "consummation devoutly to be wished."
Holt county, Mo., advertises for a schoo
teacher with plenty of muscle.
A Montreal man has been fined $2 for an
aggravated assault upon a man who Interfered
to prevent his beating his sister.
A dog, which was shut up in a church In
Taunton, Mass., for five days, made sad havoc
with the hymn-books in the vain search for
something to appease the pangs of hunger.
Some commotion has been caused in some
Western cities by the publication of statistics
from the census reports, giving the amount of
real and personal property of large owners.
Tbe wedding trip of a rural couple in Con
necticut consisted of a ride into New Haven In
their own wagon, and then a trip over the street
railroad from one end to the other and back
again.
Poultry of all kinds Is now cheaper in
Boston than it has been at this season for many
years. Good turkeys sell for 15 and 23 cents,
chickens at 12 and 23 cents, and frozen lots still
lower.
Twenty wives of Wolcottvllle recently took
a sleigh-ride to Winsted, without their hus
bands, and in their bills at the hotel were
charged with a box of cigars and a basket of
champagne.
A blast In a Vermont quarry, last week, in
which seventeen kegs of powder were used,
threw a block of marble forty feet long, thirty
feet wide and eighteen feet deep, thirty feet,
and broke it into innumerable pieces.
A man is now on trial in Jefferson City,
Mo., for murdering another by hitting him in
the head with a stone at a political meeting
eighteen years ago. He escaped to California,
but recently returned, and was recognized.
Judge Linton H. Stephens has been making
a speech In Augusta, (ia., in which he pro
claimed the reconstruction measures to be a
nullity, and counseled his hearers against ac
cepting the situation.
A far Western paper recently appeared with
two columns blank, with the exception of the
note: "By Telegraph Special Despatches to
the Pacific Tribune. This is where the tele
graphic news ought to be; but as we didn't re
ceive any we can't put it here."
Miss Sarah Wilson, who gave $30,000 to th e
Wilson Female College, near Chauiberaburg,
died last week at the age of seveuty-five
years. She bad given large sums for other good
purposes. She left an estate valued at about
t05'.,000, and died intestate.
We cannot vouch for the truth of the state
ment that a Democratic editor out West de
clares that of course we don't want San Do
mingo, because it is only a big rock, situated
south of Florida, in the Mediterranean Sea,
being a hilly climate, and unable to support life
with any degree f comfort.
There are said to be very few deaf and
dumb colored persons. In Virginia, so far as is
known, there is but one negro thus afllicted. In
the Illinois Aeylum there are two deaf mute
colored young girls who found their way
thither during the war, nobody knows whence
or how.
An up-country paper, two weeks ago, a3ked
Us readers: "lias there been aclnndestino mar
riage in town during the past week? Madame
Rumor whispers softly as yet." After the whole
community had speculated upon the mysterious
affair for a week, and at least five couples bad
been pointed out as undoubtedly the parties
alluded to, this vile newspaper came out and
said that the item had no foundation whatever,
and "was only given publicity in order to bring
before our people a forcible illustration of the
fact that we are prone, as a people, to gossip
