THE MAN IN THE BLOUSE.
Translated from the German, by Mrs. Emily R. Swander.
It in probably four years since returned from a Hying trip into the provinces buck to Paris. My trunk had preceded, but I was still encumbered with a tolerable-sized Raveling sack, consequently looked about nut for some means or transportation. I found all the commodious vehicles had been secured by other passengers, and to take an omnibus I had no disposition for of all the horrible things to be imagined recommend me to a Parisian omnibus. Ill nutured fit thus being forced to plav my own porter, I was about to fit myself to the situation when a man in a blouse politely placed himself at 'my service. VValking beside me, I could not help but observe how remarkably nice he appeared. His manner so genteel his hands and feet aristocratic, if st7.e and shape could make them so.
Passing by a book-binding establishment I requested him to wait while I entered on some business. "With pleasure, sir," he answered.
Returning with some books, he took them from me. Examining the binding like a judge, and shrugging his shoulders he remarked: "No uncommon work at all. Now if you want vour books done up in excellent style and tor the same money, goto Kaufman. Ru^ Dauphine, near statute Henry the Fourth." "I am familiar with the location. But Kaufman is a,German?" "HahI Tne Germans art the best workmen very little French manufacture is as durable." "What! You, Frenchman, believe that?" "My dear sif, I love my country, but being something of a cosmopolite, my Judgment must be free from prejudice.' The Blouse man amused and pleased me. I lit a cigar and offered him one. With a graceful bow he accepted. "A good brand," he remarked, "it would be perfect had it a month added to its age will it seem impertinent, to ask the price
I informed him. "Too dear I smoke as good a leaf and pay a hundred francs less money." He took a beautiful eture from his pocket and begged me to try his cigars. "Do they please?" stolid ho "here is the address when* they'can be purchased."
IS earing' a flower market, he disappeared a moment, and like a flash was again at my aide with a lovely bouquet of roses. "Do you belong in Paris? I inquired. "No sir! but it has been my home along %tiile you area German?" "Yes, that is easily discovered by my tongue." "Not at all, sir yon speak French fluently. I judged your nationality by your
Serinany.appearance.
L'rsonal I have been in I found Dresden charming and Leipsig pleased me very much." "Then you speak tKe language." "Very little it is six years since 1 conversed in the tongue but here we are at your residence." "What is your charge?** "Oh. whatever you please."
I had nothing less than a ftve*frane piece. The man was such an anomaly of gentleman and servant, that I took pleasure in giving him the money. Two francs would have been sufficient for any ther man in a blouse. In an instant he *as gouc.

"Oh, no consider. The French are not such a musical people as we are, but if you want compositions copied, go to Hoar & Steinert they have some one whp jyill do it well and reasonable.'*
I took my notes to this establishment, left the music, requesting the copyist's address. "That we cannot grfve you, but we will vouch for him and his work."
In due time I receiyed it* found it qorrect and neatly done. I had occasion to visit this firm repeatedly and one day I met there a young man who appeared very familiar. "Thist is the gentleman who does your copying," said the proprietor. "I have some more for you, if you will undertake it." "With pleasure, sir." 'Have nov met you befo|e|", "Possibly."
Although he was dressed in a plain suit of gray, Tike any other respectable business man, I recogni7.ed in him my "Blouse man." "Ah, those cigars yon recommended are exceedingly good." "Are they not?" "I see you are inclined to be musical?" "Just a little. I took singing lessons in Liepsig." "It is singular yoa should." "I should—what? Degrade myself to such other worlds as you have seen me occupied with? Well, sir, a man must understand how to live. Good day."
The man excited my interest and piqued my curiosity to such *an extent that I followed him for awhile to discover his whereabouts, but he escaped me at last in the mass of human beings. I received my notes in due time, but could spite of much effort discover nothing about the copyist. I indulge myself in a few habits one of them often fakes me into some church, if I find an open door, when services are not in order, the same as I would enter an open theater, and glide into an out-of-the-way corner and "to muse alone and undisturbed.
In the church I think of the time when, clinging to my mother's hand, I first entered a Catholic church in Dresden, and listened to tke sweet voices of the Italians until my frame-shivered with the charm of their music.
In the theater I love to return to the happy days of boyhood, when I used to hoard the frequent pennies given me by aunt and god-mother, so that I could have sufficient collected to enable me to visit the theater at least one a week. When I lingered under the impression that the Dereient family must be the greatest and most talented in Europe, aod the only grand place in God's world was a theater. My veneration for authors and actors was so great I would have considered no sacrifice too great for them. On All Souls' days I used to place a wreath of fresh flowers on the grave of Stein, the actor, who drew many a sympathetic tear from my eyes. Happy, happy days of boyhood! %Z
Passing one of the oldest and darkest churches in Paris one hot morning, the open doors tempted me with its cool shadows within. I entered and found a seat in a corner and let fancy have her
lie sexton appeared' with dragging footsteps, gave a touch here and there to the-drapery, warned an old woman who was dusting around to be sure and not overlook any cob-webs. Then all was silent again, until voices warned me of the entrance of two young ladies, neat and richly attired.' A "Don't be in the least alarmed, dear heart," snid one, the smaller of the two. "It will pass off nicely, I'm sum but take notice, here yuu must stand, and on this spot next to you, your intended. Just eight months ago Henri and I stood there. Kneel down, there—so that's splendid. Now put your right foot forward a little. Mamma particular?-- impressed me about that, and I did not forget it, rest assured it will give you the righ\ to rule, and the last word, as it becomes a wife and I honestly tell you it has proved true. Henri luu»'never contradicted me yet. Now give him the ring, that's the wuy. Oh! Helena, dear, you are acting splendid. What a pity you have decided to be married so very early. Scarcely any one will see. What was the use of 'a nice white dress ami an elegant toilette if no one but Armand will'admire you?" "But Armnnd wished it so, and I was satisfied."
In leaving, I had an opportunity to see that the tall one, called, Helena, was the identical beauty in company with my "Blouse man" h\ the Tuileries gardens some months before. Meeting a friend, an artist connected with one of the theaters, we locked arms antl meandered along. "Are-you busy?" I asked him. "Not/very. There is nothing on the boards. Unless a piece absolutely fails they keen it going nntil one is out of all patience* The German dramatic writers complain of the lack of energy on the part of managers. They had better come, to Paris and learn patience. Unless they have influential connections, or belong to some popnlar clique, they might as well lack everything else. Their talent and genius will not advance them. Some time ago an author gave me a play that really possesses everything to make it popular humor. wit, charming jicenes, and all necessary points to deserve success. It had been molding for a year with the director of the theater. I called the attention of the manager of our theater to it. The author will give him the play. I think he will bring it out."

As to Township Assessors. Williamsport Republican.
The assessment to be made this year in this State embraces the lands, and will stand for the following five years. If at no other time, once in five years the office of township assessor is a very important one and it requires a man of some mathematical ability, a clear conception as to the value of land, of good judgment in determining the price in different localities. Next to a fit man for trustee we want in every township in this county a man fit for the office of assessor. Now is the time to be casting about for men for the township offices, and let the selections be made at the several conventions with an eye to fitness and qualification.
'ts 'wluU Cincinnati Commercial.
We have it upon common report that chewing gum is a substance well known {to the youthful part of the community.
The qualities which it possesses at the time that it comes from the confectioner are all familiar to the youngest of us. It I certainly seems a very •attractive edible,
The reason for this is not so hard to find, Think how much eating there is in it in proportion to actual weight and cash value. But there is more in chewing gum than is dreamed of even in juvenile philosophy. One can easily comprehend the 1 main ingredients of candy, but who, without bein^ told, would suspect that chewing gum is often only a refined product of petroleum? The time was when the fragrant spruce furnished the most common material for the purpose. But this is no longer the case. The reader familiar with the processes of refining coal oil is aware that the tluck, brown liquid which comes from the earth, at one stage of its manufacture, is strained through heavy linen cloths. The residuum left after this operation is a dirty, brownish yellow wax, that smells abominably.
That unpromising substance, melted, bleached, deodorized and prepared for commerce, appears in masses that weigh about 100 pounds, resembling oblong blocks of clouded ice. It has no odor and no taste except what belongs to any wax in its purest state. It may be used for many purposes, but it is not necessary to describe them now. The manufacturer of chewing gum purchases these blocks ready made to his hand, and at once melts them down. To 200 pounds of wax he adds about 30 pounds of sugar, and gives the mixture a flavor by the use of some essential oil, as lemon and vanilla, and perhaps adds some coloring matter. The melted mass is poured out upon a clean marble slab and cut into the various shapes known to the masticators.
Tne youthful epicure rarely becomes so luxurious as to demand balsam of tolu, but if he does, the manufacturer is ready for him. This resin, which is obtained from South America, is at first in an almost fluid condition. It is the product of a tree known as—now hold your jaw, for the name is worse than a whole box of chewing gum—myraspermum tohilferum. This balsam is boiled by the manufacturer until finally it is brought to such a consistency that it can be run through rollers. It comes out in the shape of a little slender rod, of a brownish yellow color, which is cut into pieces, each about two or two and a half inches long. The balsam may sometimes be mixed with a less costly wax, since its flavor is very marked. The balsam from the "chicle" tree, from Central America, is used in making what is known as snapping gum. It is very ductile when worked and moistened, and the process of making is similar to that of pulling taffy. The original gum exudes from tne tree and forms in a mass sometimes several pounds in weight. Even in this natural state it would be a verysatisfactory substance to keep the teeth at work. It cannot be worn out.
The First Daily Paper. History of British Journalism.
The British journal entitled to this description was The Daily Courant, commenced on the 11th of March, 1702, by "E. Mallet, against the Dith at Fleet Bridge," a site, we presume, very near that of the present Times office. It was a single page of two columns, and professed solely to give foreign news, the editor or

As a curious trait of the practices,of the government of George I, we have Buckley entered in a list of persons laid before a Secretary of State (1724), as "Buckley, Amen-corner, the worthy printer of the Gazette—well-affected,' i. e., well-affected to the Hanover succession, a point of immense consequence at that epoch. The Daily Courant was in 1785 absorbed in tne Daily Gazetteer.

To thr Relative* and Friend* of Head Mold If I'M. One of the primary objects o? the Grand Army of the Republic is to perpetuate the memory and history of dead comrades— those who died in the service, as well as those since the close of the rebellion. To carry out this provision of tbe association, it is desired by Morton Post, No. 1, of Terre Haute, to have a complete record of the military history of all who may be buried in the vicinity of this city, and particularly those in the city cemetery. The undersigned have been appointed by the Post a committee to compile and prepare such record, and we desire it to be as rail, and correct as possible, as it is designed for preservation as a permanent record. We, therefore, call on the relatives and friends of any soldier buried in this city to furnish us the following information Name in full where born age at time of death branch of service, as infantry, cavalry, artillery—company and regiment rank date ana manner of death —if killed in action, give name of battle if wounded in service, when and where and any other information of interest as regards the soldier's military history. If convenient give the section and number of lot where buried in the city cemetery which will aid us in designating the grave by number on a map of the cemetery, so that our memorial day decoration service can be properly performed. It Is to be hoped that this call will be responded to. The men of 1861-5 are rapidly passing away, and we, their survivors, can honor their memory by preserving a record of their services. The military history of every member of our owfaniwitlon is a part of the record of each post, and we want to add that of our comrades who "went before." The information asked for can be given in person to either of the committee, or sent through the mail
