Mr. Comstock visited tbe museums, galleries, exhibitions and shops, and, whenever be found a bit of Cesh pertrayed in paint or marble, ha went before the magistrates and bad a grand Celd day. I must say, for the credit of tha New Yorkers, that Mr. Comstock had earned for himself a reputation as grotesque as it was noisy. Te taie up such a line of censer ship is, it seems te me, te publish one's own perversity, and the individual whose mind U se ill infermed that he cannot leek at an or tlstie counterfeit presentment of the human form divine without thinking evil thoughts, is te be pitied, if net despised. But I suppese thcre will always be quack doctors with the cant of vlrtue en their lips and filthy imaginations in their hearts. Moanwhile, the American newspapers seemed te leek upon Mr. Comstock as a legiti mate target for their Jokes and satire The New England ladles bavo'the reputa tion of being the most easily shocked women in the world.

Jonathan is the cousin gennan of Jehn Bull, but yet net se German as ene might imagine, for, if Germany supplies America with two or three hundred thousand immi grants yearly, them Germans de net Gorman German Gorman Ize America; en tbe contrary, tbey them selves beceme Americanized, thanks te that faculty of assimilation which they'pessess in such a high degree One strong proof of this Is the way in which women are treated from ene end of tbe United States te the ether. And here 1 may say that In this matter Jonathan sets Jehn Bull en example nhlch the latter would de well te profit by. Whilst English justlce gives merely ene or two mentlis' Imprisonment te the man who is found guilty of having almost kicked Ids wife te death, an American town is in arms nt tbe mcre rumor of a man having mal treated a woman. Sometimes tbe chastisement takes acemla form. Thcre are few distractions in tbe llt llt teo American towns, and native humor finds an outlet in strange fashions. A man who ill treats his wife, or forsakes bcr for another woman, Is often tarred and feathered. The operation Is curious and satisfles the ven geance of the populace, wblle procuring them en hour's amusement. The delinquent is led, sometimes te the sound of music, Jte a retired spot Thcre he is stripped te the skin and coated ever with tar from bead te feet. This dene, he is rolled in feathers, which of ceurse stick te blm and gire him tbe nppcarance of an Im mense ugly duckling. Te glve a finishing te the operation, his clothes are somellmes car ried etT, and the mob wish hlra geed luck. This chastisement is often applied te n woman whose conduct Is known te be im moral. In such cases I need net say it Is the women be operate ea the culprit They want their husbands and cons te boabletu get about without danger, and tbey take upon tbcmsel ves the task of keeping the moral atmosphcre of the neighborhood healthy. The idea appears primitive, but morality thrives by it The suscipUMUlli of A mertcan women fje ometuncs very cosily wounded. A paper bnvlng announced a man's death underthe bending!

Here is a llttle story which would supply a very geed subject te tbe novelist or the dramatist Idaho tcirltery lies very far west Indeed, and there is an alarming scarcity of women thcre, This has been curiously illustrated of lata in the town of Wageu Wheel llecently tue young ladies traveled te that remote region te attend te their dying brother. The peer fellow did net long ro re ro qulre their services, and Immediately after bis death the sisters prejiarcd te return home. Uofero, bow ever, they could get away, nearly the whole imputation of tbe town beaded by the mayor and ether high officials wuru making matrimonial overtures te them. Feel ing ran very high during flve or six anxious days, and the mayor's chances, despite his mature j cars, ruled the betting at si t te one. At the end of tbe nook both young ladies had capitulated, uud ere duly engaged. The mayor was, however, cutout by a handseme young miner. The wedding day was fixed, and the mother of the young ladies was sum moned upon the cccna. Here troubles tiegan. Bhe duly nrrlved, but was hotly indignant with her daughters for the scant respect which they bad nmuifubtul toward their brother's memory by such indecent haste te wed. The girls explained that they had literally been besieged, and had yielded te the evcrw helming force of circum stances. As umal, explanations Increased the etTensu, und the mother vowed that neither of them should be married out thcre at all that, lu fact, the engagements were "eir,"nud that tbey must be off tee. The cup of felicity was thus rudely dashed from the lips of the two accepted men, and they mads ueste te tell their sorrows te tbe town. An indignation meeting was beld, and the mayor upelnted a committee te wait upon the irate matron in order te ask her te reconsider ber resolution. The mayor, with rare magnanimity, consider ing the cruel blew his own hopes had Just received, placed himself at the head of the deputation, and in the name of patriotism implored the geed lady te grant the petition, which he ardently urged. She, howevcr, steed firmly en her parental rights, and declared that she would net leave the town without her two daughters. Then the genius of the mayor ihoue forth lihe the sun, and proved equal te the occasion. He blandly proposed a compromise. Why need she leave at all I He drew bcr attention of ceurse la most delicate terms te the fact that she was fair, plump, and fifty odd, and that similar language might be taken as doscrlptive of himself. There and then be offered her his baud end heart, and the young ladles n kind father and protector. That settled the matter, and Ihrce mar riages took place with a great IleurUa of trumpets at Wagen Wheel. cnAPTER XV. msn ttiej gentlemen's dress is plain, even hall en)ey it black coat, dark trousers.

At tbe theatre, women wear silk, which prevents ene from bearing, and hats a feet high, which prevent one from seeing. American ball toilets are ravishing. Here the diamonds are In place I de net knew any gayer, mero intoxicating sight than an American bell room. The display of luxury Li en a gigantic scale. The walls are covered with flowers, the rooms artistically lighted, the dancing animated, and the true spirit of gaycty everywhere vislble. The young women are ideal in beauty and brilliancy, nnd If It were net for the atmosphere, which is het enough te hatch silk worms, you would pass the evening In an ecstasy of enjoyment The wives of men with 111 IdcBe class Incomes imitate the luxury of the millionaire's wife. I expected te find It se; In a democratic coun try frogs try te swell into oxen. Tbey puff themselves out until they burst, or rather until their husbands burst In France always, and in England when be will let her, a wife keeps an eye en her hus band's interests. In America, she often lays htaisen bis capital. l r Thcre CHAITEU XVL is no country where you beer se many geed anecdotes, and no country when they are se well told. llie Americans are delightful raconteurs; they are past masters in the art of making thorn light, graceful, witty llttle speeches, which glve te their dinners such a unlque charm. Then the humor Is delicate, the wit of the brightest Irony and cleganre com cem com bteo te make these discourses veritable llttle literary gems. Here Is a specimen of Gen. florace Perter's drollery e portrait of an old typical Purl tan, given at a "New England" dlnncri "The old Puritan was net the most rollick ing, thojelllcst, tbe most playful of men. He at times amused himself sadly. He was given te a mild disregard of tbe conventionalities. He had suppressed bear baiting, net, It is bo be bo llevod, because Itgave pain te the bear, but bccause It gave ploasure te the nmllcnce. He found the Indians wcre tbe proprietors of the land, and he felt constrained te meve ngalnst them with his gun, with a vlew te increasing the numlicr of alscntee landlords. He found the Indians en oue slde and the witches en tbe ether. He was surrounded with troubles. He bad te keep the Indian under fire and the witches ever It Thcse were seme of the things that reconciled that geed man te sudden death. He never let tbn sun go down upon his wrath, but he, 110 doubt, often wished that he was in that re gion near tbe pole where the sun docs net go down for six mentlis nt a tlme and gives wrath a fair chance te matertallze, He was a thoughtful man. He spent his days Invent ing snow plows and bis evenings In sipping het rum and ruminating upon the prebable strength of the futum piohlbltlen vete.

Theso men geuerally began drinking 011 account of tbe bite of a snnke, aud usually had te quit en account of attacks from the same reptiles." Gea Perter was kind enough te Intreduce me te a New Yerk audlcnce en ene occasion.

He has te bpeak In a language net Ids own, and, be tides, he has net the rcsource of seme of our countrymen, who, when their tlireats nre tired, cau speak through then-noses."

It b hi the Sunday's issue that you have the crown lug feat of Journalistic enterprise thirty or thirty-two pages of telegrams, articles, essays en politics, the drama, literature, pictures, the fashions; anecdotes, bens mets, Inter views, stories for children, poetry, biogra phies, chats ou sclonce the whole illustrated with portraits, sketches of interesting places mentioned in the text, caricatures, etc, etc. Ail this for the sum of three cents. Every little town of a thousand te fifteen hundred Inhabitants has its two newspapers, ene Democratic, the ether Republican. Fer lively reading, take up these papers during the electoral struggle that terminates with the installation of a new president at the White Heuse. The names of some of them will suffice te glve you an Idea of the style of the contents; very favorite names are The Paralyzcr, The Rustler, The Cyclone, The Prairie Deg, The Bazoe, The Lucifer, The Bundle of Sticks, Tha Thunderer, The Earth quake. I saw and rend a copy of the sheet which rejoiced In the name of Bundle of Stlckx Tbe first artlde contained advice te a certain Jeseph Mullcr, who, instead of working, had token up street preaching and heuse te heuse prayer: "We glve Jeseph Mullcr a fortnight te find some honorable employment It at the end of that time he is still leading an Idle life, we w ill find an ex alted position for him." The jeke makes one shudder when oue tbli.ks that, if Jeseph should turn n deaf car te the warning, he is quite sura te be hung by his townsmen te the highest branch of seme trce In the town. The characteristic of new societies Is freedom of speech as well as of action. I read,in seme Thunderer the following lines about the edi tor of The Lightning, the ether newspaper of the tewn: "We wish te use moderation and te keep within the limits of geed breeding. We will only go se for as te say that person ally he is a snoek, and that as a Journalist he Is n liar and a scoundrel." The Lightning replies in the same strain, and the publle gets v amusement for the moderate sum of ene or two cents. During the whele tlme I was in America Mr. Pulitzer, proprietor of The New Yerk World, and Mr. Charles A. Dana, editor of The Sun, ene of the most accomplished jour nalists, wcre day after day calling each ether such names as "robber," "liar," "mort gaged," "dirty Jew." De net, hewever, draw hasty conclusions from this. I de net knew Mr. Pulitzer per sonally, but I have the pleasure of knowing CeL Cockerill, chief editor of The World, nnd Mr. Dana, of The Sun. In private life tbey are perfect gentlemen and men of great talent (Mr. Dana is oue of tbe greatest schol ars in America). Iu publle life tbey are In the swim, they go with the tide. As a study of English the polemic of The World and The. Sun was most interesting. The American press was divided into two camps, the partisans of Pulitzer and the par tisans of Dana. Whenever the combatants were driven up for want of fresh cpjthotsef the requisite strength, their supporters ing ested seme te them. Here are seme congrat ulations, addressed te Mr. Dana, which I read in ThcrSt. Leuis Globe: "It was from beginning te cod The Sun's stiletto against The World's irieat ax, andj as is always the case, tbe meat ex came out sec ond best The litcrature of invoctive con tains nothing finer than seme of The Sun's attacks en The World, and the literature of tbe gutter contains nothing mero feeble than The World's defense, The Sun dealt out prusslcncldby the drop, and The World ro re pllcd with rough en rats by the pound. The flatulent anger of Pulitzer was completely overwhelmed by the concentrated venom of Dana." It I wcre asked le name the most amusing papers published In the United States, C should net hesitate te award the palm te The Detroit lrce Press end The Omaha World; in thcse two, American humor reveals itself in all Its spontaneous gaycty, and their drol drel Icrlf's nre reproduced fiem New Yerk te San Francisce, from Montreal te New Orleans.
