: L Erom the Waterloo Afr Line, «-| How to Pay Rent. ’ Mz. Eprror :—I am going to read you a short cssay upon the subject of abstinence, and you must not be frightened if it takes the form nt:m “little story,” as “Old Abe” nsc.d‘m sj.\;. £

A few months ago, it ‘was the misfortune of. a mechanic friend of the writer to get behind on his rent. . Some six months were in ‘arrears, and he was in a “‘peck of troubles;” driven to the extremity of attempting to' borrow it, which, as you know, is difficult in these hard times. lappening to know the circumstances, and also knowing that my friend, altho’ one of the best hearted fellows alive, was rather tender on the “flowing bowl.” T went to him,and made the following proposition: That he should simply abstain from three of his regular drams. of whisky each day, and apply it on his rent, at first he was indignant, then incredulous, and finally thoughtfal. Ile silently made the same mental calculation, T suppose, that T had made for him only an hour hefore, Three drinks a day, at 10 cents cach, 30 cents; 7 daysina week, at 30 cents each, $2.10; and 4 weeks in a month, at $2.10 each week, $8.40; Sllbt;[flct rent,

$8 a month, from total saved from whisky, $8.40, 'and 4C cents per month is left for baby's: new dress. “I'm blessed,” exclaimed. hé, “but ['ve a nition to try it,” He has tried it with the grf;at:est.;snccess; for he is an excellent workman, and has

all he ‘can do, aft good .wages. From. my purse I settled the old rent bill for himj; and he has since paid it back, and the accraing rental besides. Now he asserts that, “with God’s belp, no more rent money goes down his throat with the smeli of ».w_h'is'ky on it,” henceforward. By

% plot to Assassinate Napoleon. :l‘he conspiracy 1n Paris to assassinate -the Emperor and blow up the palace of the Tuileries and . other public buildings, i reported.iby the latest telegrams to be more serious than ‘was at first supposed. The anxiety ¢f the autborities and the peoplé is- inteénse. None of the conspira-_i; tors, except & workman named Beauri, have yet been apprelfended; but many bombs and incendiary material have béen found by the police. The Tuileries is strictly guarded. Orders have been issued to the police to arrest all public speskersl’ who-insul§ the Imperial family. The political agitation throughout the ‘empire is ut its height. Arrests of chiefs rof the Workmen’s International Society continue to bé made, It iscstimated that cighty members are now in custody.— Among the prisoners is M. Protat, a lawyer, who attempsed to escape and had to be fired upon. Only one public meeting has been dissolved in. Paris, 'thus far.— . The Italian banker, who made himself.so; ! officious in opposing the plebiscatuns, has accepted an invitation from the authorities to quit France. :

GoveErNor Horrmax, of New York vetoed every bill passed by the legislature granting State aid to railroads. He claim. ed the Geperal Assembly had no right to’ vote away seven or eight_millions of dollars of the people’s money without their express consent. Will the Congress of the United States learn this wise lessor from a Democrat ?—lnd. Journal. The days of the fnillenium are gcarcely at hand, so we think it safe to assure you that “the Coungress of the United States” will not learn a “ wise lesson from a Democrat. Not the present Congress, at least. You needn’t be scared, old fel- % low. Your feed ut the public crib will . not be curtailed just yet. — Foansville (Clourier. o : el i P Tuis is something for our Congressmen to ponder. Last year little Belgium exported 280,160 tons of iron—a .la’rg[e advance on the exports of 1868, which

- reached 189,800 tons, and of 1867, which were 183,460. Of these tons, 136,063 were ~rails, for last year. The year previous there were 70,558, and in 1867 80,875 tons ,of rails, Russia taking respectively 67,419 tons, 45,340 tons, and 67,095 tons. What| is more, there seems no reason to believe .- that this trade is diminishing. What have we, with our immense resources of coal, iron, and engineering talent, to show in coniparison with this? , e . TuE scHEME to revive and extend the Freedmen’s Bureau by a direct appropriation out of the Treasury having been put . in temporary abeyance, Mr. Willey, of West Virgini#, moves, towards the same end by a side wind, proposing that the _ proceeds of the sale of our public lands go towards tbp”education of the people of . the United States, meaning thereby the " onlored brethren. Whichever means may - be preferred, the end is to resurrect the’ bureau and add the cost of its mamt?nance, to our present burdcns. il : (S S W 00l | (AT % - PrrsoNaLr.—Gen.

JOTS AND JOTTINGS. - —Old man Grant declares that Ulysses was never 8 Democrat. . Thus by the parent’s hand is " the son robbed of his pretentions to the only virtue of which he was ever suspected. : ; _~—Tt is reported trom Washington that Dick Yates issick again. His “recovery” will be announced ir about a week. His indisposition—to abandon a spree—generally requires about that period of time. b i ; —The radical newspapers, are publishing a series of satirical innuendo against the “man and, brother” under the head of “negroes in the jury box” and the like. They fail, however, to say who put the poor fellow in the box, . : —lf the King of the Cannibal Islands must have fresh missionary for breakfast every morning, why can’t we suply the demand from sueh faney stock as Frothingham, Tilton, Cooke and Smyth? He’ wouldn’t care much for the difference. 18 ] —The Radical Judge of the Marion Criminal Court has ardered the Sheriff to summons six white men and six negroes to try one William Robison, a 4 negro charged with grand larceny. Under our laws, a Judge has no right to interfere with the duty of the Sheriffto place a jury in the box. ; rit © —Workingmen, labor on! Sweat and strain; for more taxes are wanted. The hungry friends of bondholders find there is no department’ of justice at Washington, and one is to be created at once.— ‘Some thousands of dollars are necessary. ‘Bring them to the altar o” justice, workingmen. - ,

- —The Boston dressmakers do not ex hibit their goodsand *‘styles” upon wooden dummies this season. They dress up well formed girls, and these shiow off the fine clothes to the best advantage. It is said that many gentlemen have suddenly undertaken to go about and select “something to wear” for their wivesand daughters. 2 B

—Whoever says this is.not a ‘white man’s government, let him look through the work-shops of the east, or on the prairies of the west, at the white men working to pay for a negro burean. Or at white operativés in factories, white farmers, farmers’ wives and childern, workipg in their little homes for bondholders who, with the negroes, are having very happy times of it now. - |

~-=The German Republicans,/by a committe¢ in New York city, announce a bolt from the Radical organization. They complain of the Blue Law spirit of the Republiean leaders, and will probably liold a State Convention at an early day. Before a year roils around. these men will:all act with the Democracy. Democracy is liberal, while Radicalism is intolerant. ; : G

—The New York Zribune, inan article on reconstraction in Georgia, says: “If you allow the people of Georgia to elect new rulers, théy won't elect us.” The “us” here indicatéd means, as a matter of course, the Radicals. Thisis just where the shoe pinches. If the people of Georgia would allow all the offices to be filled with Radical carpet baggers there would be no necessity for reconstruction, - -

- —The following verdict was recently rendcred by a colored jury: “We de undgrsigned, bein a Korner's jury, to sit on de'body of de nigger Sambo, now dead an' ‘gone afore, hab been sittin’ on the said migger aforesaid, and find dat de same did, on the 14th of November, come to def by fallin’ from de ‘bridge ober de riber, and brokin’ his neck, where we find dat he was subsequently drown and afterward washed to de river side, where we suppose he was frozen to def” - -—l'he Boston Advertiser urges that a possible source of controversy and danger might be removed by the final determination of the question as to whether or not a state has the right to rescind its ratification of a constitutional amendment. It ‘would'remove considerable uneasiness in the public mind, if the Advertiser or some other respectable authority," would make known the process ot settling' this or any other question. It is coming to be pretty generally understood that we have no tribunals left whose decisions possess any greater virtue of permanence that the shifting scripts of partizan power. _ ,—The New York Zribune says it is high time “that the greenbacks should cease to be a National lie.” Yes, for on the back of them we read that they are legal tenders for “all debts, public and private, except duties on imports and the interest upon the public debt.” Our cotemporary, ih despite of this, has insisted, and the Govérnment adopts it, that the ‘principal of the debt shall be paid in coin, and that for it, also, the grecnbacks are not legal tenders. Here is a direct lie to every man who hasia greenback in his pocket, and who took it upon the faith of the Government that it was u legal tender for all debts, with the two exceptions above quoted. e '

“l'nrllg by Sunligh\z and Gaslight,”” A work descriptive of the Mysteries and -+ Miseries, the Virtues, Vices, Splendors, and Crimes of the City of Paris.— By James D, McCabe, Jr. - National Pub . lishing Co., Chicago. ’

Those who wish to know what. fast life is in Paris, should read this book, tor a more faithful picture was never drawn of the follies and crimes of the gayest city in the world. There is no place where sin-and vice assume such beautiful guises, or where so much care is taken to make life one round of fast and reckless dissipation as in the gay Capital of France. Our author evidently knows whereof he writes, and draws his pictures in the most glowing colors. He carries us into all classes of society, from the family of the Emperor, to the garret of the pretty Grisette. We listen:to the glo rious music of the Grand Opera, and to the ravishing strains of the Can-can at Mabille, or the Closeric. We are admitted to the parlois of'the Duchess, and watch the spreading of the social plaguespot over the fair fame of the noble dame; and chat with Cora Pearl and ber Sister Lorettes in their gorgeous apartments,— All tke trickeries, knaveries; follies, crimes, and the dark and ferrible mysteries of the wicked City, are portrayed in this volume with a startling truthfulness. The reader is thrilled, fascinated, charmed, and finds it impossible to lay ‘the book aside until it is completed.— ‘Since the publication of the “Wandering Jew,” 'no more powertul and thrilling “wark tipon this subject has ever appeared ; but, unlike that book, this one is of-per-manent value, for, besides its chapters, relating to the darker side of Paris, it makes us fully acquainted with the briglit, beauful City, so.attractive to an American,— It abounds'in solid and useful information, which is so thoroughly 'interwoven ‘with bright and sparkling pictures of the glories and greatuess of this wonderful City, that we do not wonder that Paris draws so many Americans to it every year. There is no class of Americans to which this book does mot appeal, either by its solid worth or by its powerful descriptions of the sensations of the gayest City in the world.
