The Dionneuatling of the Paris Extol.
• Most.
The Paris correspondent of the Pall Mall
Gazette writes, under date of November 9:.
"Although a week has' not yet elapsed
since the Paris Exhibition of 18G7 closed its
dobrs to the public, fifily twathirds of ,the„
objects displayed during the past seven
months are already packed up, and are for
the most part in course of transit to their
widely different destinations. Strange to say,
those countries which were the most dilatory ,
in getting their show ready are the first to
clear out of the building, and vice versa.
Persia, which was by far the most behind
hand in April last, managed to pack up and
cart away every unsold article by Wednes
day, on which day notices vendre' were
affixed to the little blue, green, purple and
gold pavilions wherein its contributions to
the Exhibition had been exposed to view. On
the other hand, Russia, which, it will be re
membered, was ready for the opening seve
ral days in advance of every. other State, has
since the closing made the smallest progress
with its packing
"Outside the various entrances to the ex
hibition, instead of Atte long line of omni
buses, hooded ;vans, Wagons and carts, and
numberless antediluvian vehicles without
names which the exigencies of the times had
brought forth from their quiet resting places,
one now , enpounteis hundreds of furniture
and other vans, and heavy trucks on low
wheels, piled up with packing cases, or con
veying colossal bronze statues or huge pieces
of machinery. Entering the park.gby the
principal gateway, we find workmen engaged
in removing the groups of tricolor flags and
the tawdry escutcheons from the Venetian
masts, which are themselves about to be
lowered by tackle now being put up. All the
enialler structures in the park are cleared of
their contents, and at every side placards
stare ruse in the face, announcing this or the
other mansion, chalet, pavilion, or bureau
_ 4 (l, rendre.' Tha very shrubs, too, which
graeed the park, are offered for sale. The
famous English cottage may be bought in a
lump or bit by bit; while for the purchase of
the shed in which our Secretary of State for
War's display took place one is referred,
curiously enough, to the adjacent Protestant
missions.
"The railway which intersects the park.
and runs right into the Exhibition building is ,
now in full operation. The locomotive
• steam cranes and monster windlasses, \too,
are actively at work. Save the noiselliade
made'by' these all the distracting whirl of the
machinery in motion has come to an end.
And not only are the machines silent, but
- 'two-thirds of them have been removed from
the building. The French section of the
building, with the exception of the picture
galleries and the 'Muse° de Phistoire du
travail, is stripped almost entirely of its con
tents."
A Social Nuisance.
A certain newspaper in this city used to
extort "black mail" as the condition of sup
pressing unpleasant personalities. Merited
physical castigation of the editor only tended
to aggravate the evil and gain him the sort
of notoriety he wanted. The ability to main
tain a more respectable style ofjournalism,
together with the influence of public opinion,
finally put an end to the nuisance. We have
again in this city a journal which seems to
be seeking the same kind of notoriety by
another species of personalities, none the less
annoying to its helpless victims. We refer
to the paper which, once circulating among
respectable families. has lately taken to the
habit of publishing the names of well-known
ladies and gentlemen in our society who are,
or are thought to be, "engaged."
A more wanton and culpable invasion of
the sanctities of, private life has never been
attemptedin a civilized coantry. In one in
stance the offence was especially aggravated.
The names of a lady and a gentleman said
to be betrothed were published at the same
time that the marriage of the gentleman to
another lady was announced in the papers.
Imagine the feelings of the lady reported to
be "engaged." No one can estimate the an
noyances that might well arise from the pre
mature or incorrect publication of these im
pudent "announcements."
There ought to be some way to protect
private life from invasion by these mischief
making Paul PryB of journalism. If there
are any ladies who delight in the sort of
notoriety which the publication of their
names gives, let the line be drawn between
them and those who aro more worthy of the
name. If any newspaper can get material
for personal gossip from this class, let it be
understood that they are voluntary victims
to their own morbid vanity. We trust that
there are few ladies belonging to what is
called "our best society" who desire this
unenviable distinction. The majority, we
are sure, would rejoice were there some
adequate legal protection for that privacy of
their domestic and personal affairs which
they are entitled by every consideration of
right to enjoy.—N, Y. PoBt.
How to get Rid of a Preacher,
The Basques of the border between France
and Spain are notoriously a headstrong as
well as a bigoted people. They. are fond of
as joke, too, though their jests are apt to be
of a somewhat savage character, befitting
mountaineers and contrabandists. The fol
lowing story from a French Protestant jour
nal is a remarkable illustration of the bigo
try and humor of that tegionz "A Protestant
minister recently went to preach at Pont-a-
Celles. The first time he was not disturbed.
the Catholic 'clergy not being
aware of his presence; but on the
following Sunday anathemas were
launched at him from the pulpit of the
latter, and the population were invited to
drive away the intruder. This exhortation
produced its effect. When the minister re
turned the local brass band turned out to
drown his preaching. with its music. As,
however, the minister continued, a singular
stratagem was employed. Children were
excited with strong liquors, and then whistles
were distributed to them with which to cre
ate a noise."
Of course the children, thus shamefully
excited and encouraged, blew their whistles
with all the fury of momentary mania, and
the minister was ultimately driven from the
place by this disgraceful practical joke.
Awkward.
A good story is told in the London Daily
News of the awkward consequences of
"cooking" history for educational purposes
in France. M. Duruy, the Minister of Pub
lic Instruction, happened at a school exami
nation to put a lad to the stock test : What
are some of the principal events of the
present reign for which France should be
grateful to the Emperor? "The Mexican ex
pedition and the Credit Mobilier," promptly
returned the boy, to the horror of the
Minister and consternation of the school
master, who was afraid he would be
held responsible for the unfortunate reply.
The Minister left hurriedly, perhaps afraid
to pursue his inquiries, and as soon as he
was gone the master gave the boy a severe
caning. Upon this the boy's father sum
moned the schoolmaster before a commissary,
of police for an assault on his eon, and in the
course of the judicial-proceedings - it came
out that , in M. Duruy's modern history of
France, published for the use'of schools, the
Mexican Expedition and the creation of the
Crklit Mobilier are mentioned among the
ereat acts of the reign. The bo . y, therefore,
answered M. Duruy's question in M. Duruy's
own words. Bat then the official history
was written a year or two since. -

ten, of the Army, Adjutant General's °Mee, Washington,
D. C., August 27, 1867, Major•Cieneral W. B. iiancocir
hereby assumes command of 'the Fifth Military District
of the Department, composed of the State. of Louisiana
and Texas.
-
beconff 7The General Commanding is gratified to learn
that peace and quiet reign in this Department, and It will
be his pm plum to preserve this condition of things. a
means to this groat end he regards the maintenance of
the civil nuthoritiedin the faithful execution of the laws
as the most' efficient tinder existing circumstances. In
war it is indispensable to repel force by force and over
throw and destroy opposition to lawful authority; but
when insurrectionary force has been overthrown and
peace established, and the civil Authorities are ready and
willing to perforni their duties, the militarY power shall
cease to lead and the civil administration resume its
natural and rightful, dominion.
oleninly impressed with these views, the General an•
/Jounces that the great principles of .American liberty still
are the lawful inheritance of this people, and ever should
be. T 1 e right of trial by Jury, the habeas corpus. the
liberty of the press, the freedom of speech and the natural
right of persons, the rights of property, must he preserved.
Free institutions, while they are essential to the pro.perity
and happiness of the people, the always furnish the
strongest inducements to peace and order. Crimes and
offences committed in this district must be
referred to the consideration and Judgment
of the regular civil authorities, and these tri
bunals will he supported in their lawful Jurisdiction.
Would there be violatioes of existing laws which
are not inquired into by the civil magistrates, or
should failures in the administration of Justice by
the courts be complained of, the cages will be
reported to these headquarters, when such orders will he
made as may be deemed necessary. While the General
thus indicates his purpose to respect the liberties of the
people, he wishes all to understand thet armed insurrec
tions or forcible resistance to the law will be bo instantly
suppressed by arms.By command of MaJOr•General W. B. Hancock.

As there were heroes before Agamenmon,
so there were great walkers before Weston. -
In the last century it was the custom of the
nobility to keep running footmen, as now
they employ postillions 'and outriders. The
running,footman was part ,and parcel of a
grandee's traveling equipage. = He went be-'
, fore the coach, sometiMes as the avant eou
) rice of his lordship, sometimes to find , fords
- through bridgeless rivers, and not unfre
quetttly to put his shoulder to the wheel and
lift the coach out of the mire or ruts.
In the' days when the highways were
infested by Dick Turpins and Claude
Dnvals,- the footman was as serviceable
as a party of skirmishers thrown out:in ad
vance of a regiment marching through an
enemy's country. Any one who has read
Macatilay's "History of England" will readily
understand that the highways 'of Great
Britain were in an execrable condition up to
a very recent period, and, with the exception
of the old Roman roads, they were not much
better on the Continent. Five miles an hour
was recorded - good time for the lumbering
coaches in which royalty and nobility rum
bled their heavy way over the earth's surface.
No one' can read with any patience the
slow progress made by the State coach in
which Louis XVI., of France, and hill unfor
tunate wife attempted to escape from the
mob of Pails. An ox - team that could not
make better time in our day would be un
yoked, fattened and driven to the shambles.
The running footman, therefore, had a com
paratively easy time of it. But his recorded
that they not unfreauently made seven miles
an hour and, when necessary, accomplished
sixty miles a day without exhaustive fatigue.
When roads began to mend, and the gor
geous piles of gold, plate grass, crimson vel
vet and tapestries gave place to plainer and
lighter vehicles, the rate of speed vvfes accele
rated, and the footman was mounted behind,
in place of running before. But the custom
was kept up as late as the time of' Sir Walter
Scott,who remembered seeing the state-coach
of John, Earl of Hampton, attended by ono
of the fleet-footed roadsters, "clothed in
white and bearing a staff." In Notes and
Queries it is related that the Duke of Queens
bury kept up the practice to the day of
his death, in 1810.' He used to try
their paces up and down Piccadilly,
timing them from his balcony. At the con
clusion of one trial the candidate presented
himself to Ells Grace. "You will do forme,"
said the Duke, "and your livery will do very
well for me," replied the man,
and ran away
with it. A contributor to Notes and
Queries describes the appearance of these
running or walking footmen who preceded
the King of Saxony's carriage on a road near
Dresden, in 1845. As it Is the last account
we have of them on .the Continent we are
persuaded to give the details: "First, in the
centre of the dusty chaussee, about thirty
yards ahead of the foremost horses' heads,
came a tall, thin, white haired old man; he
looked six feet high, about seventy years of
age, but as lithe as a deer; his legs and body
were clothed in drawers or tights of white
linen; his jacket was Jike a jockey's, the
colors blue and yellow,, with lace and fringes
on the facings; on his head a sort of bonnet
cap? slashed and ornamented with lice em
broidery;and de orated in front with two
curling hemispheres; round his waist a deep
belt of leather, with silk and lace fringes,
tassels and qu aint embroidery... In his hand
he held, grasped , by the middle, a staff about
two feet long, carved and painted, with a
silver head, and something like bells or metal
drops hung round it; on each side of the
road dressed and accoutered in the same
style, came his two - sons, handsome, tall
young fellows, of twenty to twenty-five years
of age; and so the King passed on."
Special feats of these trained footmen are
on record. The Earl of Home, residing in
Berwickshire, had occasion to send his to
Pitinburgh, thirty-live miles distant, and, to
his surprise, in the morning found the man
fn. the hall asleep on a bench. He had made
the distance and returned during the night.,
The Duke of Lauderdale, in the time of
Charles IL, had occasion for additional plate
for a grand dinner party. His fobtmen
darted °flatter breakfast for the Duke' s other
mansion, fifteen tidies distant, and &turned
with the plate before the 'table was spread for
it. Lord Berkley, in his manuscripts, re :
eords the fact that his footman, an Irish
man named Lanham, carried a letter
from his residence at Callowdown to
a physician in London, and returned with
the medicine inside of forty-two hours. The
distance was 148 miles. There still exists in
Loidon, Berkeley Square, a public house
calk(' "The Running Footman." The sign
represents him as a tall, light-footed man,
engaged in running, and holding in his hands
a stick having a metal ball atop. But the
running footmen have passed away with the
days of lumbering coaches and traveling
carriages, such as the English nobility used
to make their Continental tours • in, and in
which they packed their provisions, Spanish
wines and other cordials and comforts for the
whole journey.
Among the great pedestrians of the past,
perhaps none has left a record of more ex
traordinary feats than Captain Barclay, of
England. At fifteen ho walked on a wager
aix miles an hour, and won. In 1801 he
walked .from thy, in Kincordineshire, to
Buroughbridge, in Yorkshire, a distance of
300 miles, in five days, the weather being
oppressively hot. Some years later he
walked 1,000 miles in 1,000 consecutive
'hours. This occurred in Newmarket, and
created as profound excitement as a handi
cap over the Epsom Course.
It is reported of one Mr. Poster Powell, an
attorney's clerk, that he walked from London
to York and back again in six days, a dis
tance of 400 miles. The Edinburgh express
whirl the traveler over the same ground in
side of nine hours. Foster won a hundred
guineas, which had been staked on his suc
cess, and was none the was() for it. The
London Annual Register, for 1788, an
nounces that a young Irishman on the 21st'of
September of that year, started for Constau
tinople,having engaged on a wager of twenty
thousand pounds to walk from Lon
don to Constantinople and back again in a
year. As that was the last heard of him,
it is not impossible he shared the fate of the
two New York correspondents who. a few
years ago, started for a journey overland
from Constantinople to the Indies. The first
day out they 'were seized and ravished by
the Sultan's enlightened subjects.
" There are many other special feats of pedes
trianism recorded in the almost forgotten
chronicles of the past, but we have given
sufficient instances to show that Weston's
enterprise is not without, parallel, and is
within the range of possibility.
Woe and Abuse of Words and Phrases.
It is a curious but easily explicable fact
that always and everywhere in civilized
countries there has prevailed to a greater or
less extent two dtstinct modes of speech.
The one Is the style of the literary aristoc
racy, the other of the tugetterecl common
alty. Just as gold is the, measure of indus
trial values, so the former of these two dia
lects is the standard by which correctness of
phraseology and pronunciation is to , be
judged. - Flowing more or less in the tante
channel, or in a muddy stream parallel .with
this,is that coarse,-corrupt form of 'speech
which--as much as dress and man_
ners--iiistinguishes ignorant and uncultivated
persons from those who are educated and
refined. Another interesting fact, which is
co-extensive with Civilization, is much MOM,
prominent amongEnropeans than it ie among,
English speaking-communities wherever the
latter are scattered Widely over the earth. It
is this: the literary language, in phrase and
accent, Is everywhere pretty nearly, the same,,
while the dialects of the untaught populace
vary, from country4o„country and from dis
trict to district, in.almOst every possible de-
Viatio'n from the best usage of the mother
tongue. ;
ese various groups of this baser atraturn of
English have, one Characteristic to common.
As compared With the standard language,'
they are , all more Antiquated in pronunciation
and more in idiom. The wind blows
"right peert" (pert) over the, head of the poor
Whites of Virginia to-day, just as it blow
across the Avon in. Shakespeare's time. In
the rural districts of New England "housen"
are still built, and things are "hove," "hefted"
or "sarched , ' (searched) for, as they were in
the mother country two hundred years ago.
From England, British India, Southern
Africa, Australia, Canada, Vermont,Vir
ginia &c., innumerable specimens of this low
English might' be collected togethdr; but a
large volume would be required to exhibit
and explain them. The very few of them
admitting of notice at the present time will be
the more interesting if taken from our own
immediate neighbor hood.
"Had ought" and "hadn't ought!" These
two grammatical weeds always survive our
free school cultivation, and sometimes
grow thriftily in the best New England col
leges.
In England hens "sit"—always,• but
throughout the United States, not only the
sun and the moon, but all the feminine
featherhood, "set." It would seem as if no
amount of teaching will ever make American
children adopt the correct word.
"To feel like" eating, etc., is assuredly a
most extraordinary sensation. A man may
feel sick, or like a culprit, but that he
should feel like an action is incomprehen
sible.
"Was" for "is." He said, for example,
that God was (is) love. Half the editors of
the United States manifest their contempt for
grammar in this way.
"Sold at auction." Auction is not the
place or time, but the manner of sale. The
Boston Advertiser : lind a few other papers
use the correct expregtron: sold by auction,
or b private sale.
"Quite," or very, is wrongly employed
both in England and Ametica. As guile,
means completely or entirely, it would be
interesting to know what is to be understood
by the phrase "quite a number."
Schkol boys play what they call "high
spy." This should be "I spy," as is obvious
from the nature of the game. A. genuine
Yankee never troubles himself to sound but
three letters in the word horse; some of his
cockney cousins make two answer, thus o 8;
but a well educated Englishman pronounces
the word almost in two syllables, hor-se,
enunciating distinctly every letter, except
the last. -
"Ugly" and "clever" are generally misap
plied all over New Englarid. Many per
sons, in this vicinity, would perhaps hardly
understand that an ugly horse may be very
good natured, and that a clever man may be
extremely mean and wicked.
"Lie-and "lay" are extensively misused,in
the vulgar dialect. "Now I lay me down,"
as in the child's prayer, is all right; but
to say "he lays down," instead of "ho lies
down," is as bad as if a hen should lie an
egg. Again, the phrase "he lies," may con
vey two totally distinct ideas, thus:
N'aanot mina or eft," you beggar erica—
'Bot if he tells the truth. he surely IteB."
A "female"—human, of course—having
buried her husband, must either get another,
or submit to be called "a widow woman"
during the remainder of her life.
Yankee butchers sell "fore shoulders" of
mutton, ttc.i but hind shoulders are never
offered for sale.
In the best English society, it would not
be deemed indelicate to say that a lady's leg
was broken. In America only men have
legs; women have limbs.
Vulgar Yankeeisms abound in ups and
clowns. When it is "all up" with a man, he
looks "down in the mouth.' Trees are "cut
down," and then "cut up" for fuel. Pur
chasers who do not"pay down,"are expected
to "pay up," at a future time, etc., etc. A
Vermont militia, captain, being himself
somewhat "sot up' . ' at the time, gave the
order to one of his men: "Hold up your gun.
up!"
"flow are you on't for money?" &c. This
is a very curious vulgarism, and may pos
sibly claim descent from the “comment en
rtes vous?" of the Norman French, who,
in bygone centuries, tyrannized over Eng
land.
But these few draughts from the muddy
well&of defiled English must suffice for the
present. It the reader is thirsty for more,
he may be sure that the supply is deplorably
abundant and always close at hand, some
times perhaps very near to his own lips when
he is least aware of it.— IVoreester (Mass.)
AS'pll. •
Royal Etiquette.
The manner in which kings and queens
meet each other was curiously illustrated at
the imperial meeting at Salaburg. Napoleon
kissed the gloved hand of the Austrian Em
press, but Francis Joseph simply gave Eu
genie's hand a formal touch with his own.
Before the Imperial party had spent the first
half hour together, other details occurred
which have all been carefully preserved by
the gossips of the Court. It will be remem
bered that the toilette worn by the Empress
Eugenie was of the most approved
and fashionable make, half mourning
of the most delicate tint of, gray, orna
mented with jet, out of compliment to the
memory of Maximilian—a visiting morning
costume, out of compliment to the hour—a
short petticoat, reaching just below the ankle,
surmounted by a shorter one of the same
material; half-high tight-fitting boots of lilac
kid, with sparkling jet tassels, and a long
cane in her hand, according to the fashion
adopted at the French Court on all occasions
of traveling or villegiatura. The whole
aspect of the wearer was charming, light and
stylish in the highest degree. The Empress
Elizabeth, on the contrary, wore long
sweeping skirts, with a total absence
of, all ornament. A rich veil of
black lace, artistically arranged, with a coro
net of jet, fell from the small bonnet, over
the neck and on either side of the face—the
whole toilet, by its severe simplicity, afford
ing a striking contrast to that of her Imperial
visitor. But just as she was entering the
carriage, where the Empress Eugenie was
already seated, his Majesty, Francis Joseph,
touched her wrist and exclaimed rather
abruptly, "Take care, madam, your feet are
visible." The words happening to catch the
ear of the Imperial lady to whom they were
not addressed, caused her to color slightly;
but, of course, no other outward sign of
comprehension of their meaning was made
manifest.
Aliaska and Clock Striking.
The acquisition of the Masks territory has
extended the.domtins of the United States
from the Great Henan, in the Illy of Fundy,
on the eastern shores of America, to the
middle of the Atton Pass, off the eastern
shores of Asia—a breadth of border• embrac
ing 126 degrees of longitude. One hundred
and twenty-six degrees of longitude encircle
the earth for more than one-third of its cir
cumference. Thus, when the clocks on the
island of the Great Afenan are striking noon,
the sound will be caught up, and, chasing
the sun in his daily round, the mid-day
elarneo`of the Yankee ' clock in. Yankee land
will be prolonged for eight hours, and in
fluch..,atinanner that ere ;the thne-keepero
