Mr. K night, an American scholar who lived in Paris d u ing most t.f hia life, need to tell a nlory illustrative of tho way in which tho En. ropeaa workman was reduced to a Suman ma chine. During the international exhibition he was seated under a canopy oa tho grounds listening to some music. It had been raining-all day, and tho ground was soaking with water. A man went stolidly up Jand down the area in front, with a wateriuz-cau sprinkling the grass. -Mon ami," said Mr. Knight, fcdo yoa not see that it is raining?" "I am employed to wet this grass," said the man. "and I shall wet it. rain or no rain, until I am told to tdop."' Another American was not long since watch ing the workmon employed ia tho alteration of Eaton hall, near Chester, on the estate or the marquis o? Westminster, and listening to the tato:nJa4nf mi English companion that 5oC men had been at work on it for several years. I should think thy might go on to the end ol time, if they work as they are working now," said the shrewd visitor. "Hore aro fifty stout fellows, for instance, each with a wheelbarrow removing this heap of stone two hundred vanls. It will take them a vear. A temporary radf.-av, cars and engine, derrick and pulleys, would cost a comparative trine, and do the work in tlirfie ilavs." "And for tho rest of the year your fifty stoul fellows would starve?" suggested tho Eng- lisnniin. -Yon do not consider how over led w are. and that is tho duty of tht class possessed of vast fortunes to make work for the class who have none." These two anecdotes throw a gleam of light on the different social condition of the Enro-rve.i-i nml American workinsruan.

Two or three nights Lack, while in tba mag nificent dining-room of the Grand hotel, enjoy ing, as were seven or eight hundrod ether per eous, a very excellent dinner, I was suddenly surprised by JL Desgranges and his orchestra triking up "The Star Hpanglod Banner." It is seldom that Desgranges venturos to indulge ia national airs, or anything of that kind. Once a year the guests of the Orand hotel who take table d bote dinners, will he.r, now the national anthem of Russia, now that of Italy, Uuw that of England, and so on around tho world. On tho 1th of July the chief d'orchea- tre also presents Home American tunes, hut we aro not used to them, and hence I was rather startled the other night when ho gave us "Tha Star Spangled Banner," I picked up my menu, but there wai no such number on tho musical programme, and while 1 was thinking about it the band struck up "Yankee Doodle." I beck oned to the maiire d'hoteL "Why is this thus?" I asked Monsieur Carry smiled and exr lainod, and the point of his whispered com munication was that Mr. Kufus Hatch and family were at another table; that Mr. Rnfus Hatch had 10 quested that the orchestra shoul 1 play something which would remind a patii- otic American citizen of his native laud; that this message had bean carried to Mons. Knccht, the worthy maiager of the hot .l, and now the request of tho distinguished guest was complied with. "Code Rufus,".in my hotel; woll, here wae a chance for an interview. On general princi ples it is safe for enterprising journalists to indulge in aa interview whenover the oppor tunity presents itsolf. It is absolutely impera tive on him when he meets a man like liufui Hatch, for no conversation is mora interesting than that of the famous "cattleman" of Broad etreet. Dinner over, I wont for Uncle Kufus, and as be was about going to the opera with Lis family Rearranged a rendezvous for fa a morrow Accordingly, tho next day, in answer to my inquiry whether ho was in Paris oa butuncn or pleasure, Mr. Hatch said: "I am trying to combine both, and I think I have so far mot wh pretty good success. If it holds out this way I shall go back to Now York healthiar, wealthier and of course happier. I was in London thrco weeks, and I have been in Paris almost a fortnight I havo formed decilil opinions on some things, even if I am not oue of the oldest inhabitants. I don't sp eak ranch Fieneh, and I know tho names of none of tha streets. I could not read them or spell ILein if I did happea to remeaiber them; but 1 get along nicely with two phrases 'poor boy' f pour boire) and the name of my hotel. Wlien 1 get lost l tel. a can driver tn'j name ut in j hotel, and when 1 want auyl.iag done 1 sty poor boy. Those two words n.ways make thj fellows tiy around They appear to me to be liiii'-'immuiiiy interested in my we.iare vi uen i np-2ak o tlijin 1 could make My way oil over 1 f iii-:9 with these two r ieu r.i worns an i me money t. back thorn up." Mr. Hatch spoka Unns last few words thousht-'u ly, reilotive'.y. and hu appeared to b'i maki ,g a uieutal calcula tion as co the prob .ioie i . .at of money that it would take "to ba -k :li m up." I asked L'nde Ku'ns ;f h : had seen anything of ih j country. H rre.died that he had seen mow of Frau:3and Kv.-Ua I than most Fr'. u jh meii had of the I n; d St.it. s. "Glads one, Jules Ferry, and thjir poopio," he continued, "don't visit Anu-ri.-a; aud only know what wo are from bojKs and newspapers. AH the read ing matter on earth would i.ot give me as prac tical an idea of what these countries are as have tho two visits which I have made within the past twelve months. I see here France with her 37,000,000 people and 204,000 squaro miles of territory. Her acres are too small, or else she baa got too many inhabitants to the square mile. Great Britain and Ireland have about thirty-four millions of people to 116,000 square miles of country; there is not land enough for the people. The soil won't sup port tbein. It has beea worked anyway for a thousand years, and is worked out, is impov erished. If it was manured, fertilized, stimu lated as no other roil on earth is, it would hardly eupport .the earth worms that squirm about in it. Whatever virgin soil there is in either country is to be foaud only in the vast hunting estate? which are owned by royal and noble proprietors At the present rate of in crease France doubles her population once in two hundred years; all England in one hundred ears: the city of Ixindon in fifty years. The Jnited States is now doubling its population every thirty years. I tell you, sir, there is something wrong over here about the whole organization of government and society as weil It is wrong from tho bottom up. It is all vcrv petty to look at. and it reminds me of the remark of the little boy that had bean gath ering pond lilies. A passer-by said: " 'Thosjs are pro'ty tiowers, Tommy.' 'Ye,' answered the boy, 'they be pooty, mister, but they ain't go d for mvuh. They wilt s.i quick less you 'tend 'em all ine time.' "Paris is beautiful to look at Tho houses are eUgaut, uniform in architecture, bnt well, every oue of them seems to have been built to servo as a fort or baiaicade as much aa for a residence. The front drs are like heavy armored gates, and all tho ground floor windows have cross-bars or iron shutters. The statues on all the public monuments are figures of war or victory. The ornaments are cannon, guns, vwords, shot shell, aud battle flags. I see no figures representing peace or plenty, aur- ounded with wheat olie.ives, horns of abund ance, or plow-shares. The great public build ings are palaces and barracks, and every tenth inau is serving as a soldier with a bayonet or sword in bis hand, while most of the others are worn-out veterans of past wars, decorated with medals for the slaughterings they have survived. Thia is what 1 see in the cities. Aa I pass through the rural districts I see the land dotted with hovela surrounding chateaux. Every square inch of soil being coaxed to give it some little mite of product The trees are shorn of their very twigs for f neL Worat of all, I see women in crowds toiling ia every field with hoe and spade, and in every wood and thicket with ax and billet-hook, working to keep the men iu uniform for war. tiuch a state of affairs may have lasted for centuries, but it is steadily growing worse, and can't last always. The people are tearing, and knowledge will make them restless, and, at last, resolved. They will hear, thev are hearing,, of Texas with with its 274, 000"square miles, and of Dakota with its 152 LOoO square miles of virgin land. Combine Mon tana and Dakota, and they will raise more wheat than Great Britain and France put to gether, for they are especially adapted to grain production It costs more to manure an acre cf land here than an acre of magnificent land in our great north wes J costs to buy out right There are lands in Ed gland held by tenant farmers whereon the rent, tithes, and manuring ccsts 9 Hi a year per acre, the bulb of it being rant, which the duke or earl exacts, the second heaviest item the tithes for the sup fort of the aristocracy of religion, and, thirdly, the fertilizer. There are thousands of aerss cfland ia Dakota, Montana, Nebraska and Wyoming, which will yield forty or fifty bush els per acre without any sort of manuring whatever. As some one has cleaverly said of tte magnificent acres which may be c-ed by mil'.isns : 'You tickle them with a 'bey laaeh with a harvest " I aked Mr Hatch if bs did would be advantageous if our p adopt a better system of farmin ay, feed the land more, in ord .and might feed them. He rephsu I agricultural wisdom might be necessary la Lurope, but that the northwestern agricultu ralist would hardly indulge in fertilizing so long aa virgin land was so cheap. Besides, on the old farms in states lika Illinois, Minne sota, and Iowa, the farmers could aot -fford to manure their land. To bring fish rrwe from the coast, or town sewerage fro - ttii aies. wonld cost too much, while a per phosphates, and other artit. L3ra would be entirely beyond our wara' reach.

Oh, give mo mothers; yea, great glad mothers. Proud mothers of dooms. In deed, twice ton; Fond mothers of mothers and mothers of men. Like old-time clusters of sisters and brothers, When grand Greeks lived like gods, and when Brave mother of man, strong breasted and broad, Did exult in fulfilling the purpose of God. Yea, give me mothers, grand old world mothers. Who peopled strong, lusty, lovod Germany Till aiie pushed the Frank from the Rhine to the sea Yci. give me mothers that love and none ethers; Elesred, beautiful mothers of men for mo. For they, they do love in the brave old way, And for this all honor for aye and a day. But mothers of fashion! Oh, white, cursad mothers! Yes, cursed as the Christ cursed the barren fig tree, With your one sickly branch where a dozen should be; Ye are cypriatia of folly to Satan's own brothers, Withered and barren and piteous to son. Ye are dried-up peppers in a dried-op pod Ye are lMAd of men and abhored of cod. Stronger than steel Ia the sword of the Spirit; Swifter than arrows The light of the truth is; Greater than anger Is love, that subdueth! Longfellow. A HUNDRED YEARS HENCE. The Intereating I'roplieey of au Ens- Hah Clergyman. Detroit Free Tress. Some people often wish that they were dead, and if this involved their living by-and-by in stead of now, how many will wish it, on read ing the prophecy of the Bev. Mr. Fincke, au English clergyman who traveled much ia America ten j . ars ago. Ho cow venturos to tell what he thinks ia to bo the future of "Eu3 lishry," by which he means the English speak ing peoples 0'i the globe a century hence. He calculates by that time there will be one thou sand millions of them living nuder the same institutions and cherishing tho samo ideas, social and political, in the United States, Can ada, Australia, South Africa, and Great Britain. The 800,000,000 which he assigns to the United States will overflow into Canada, into Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia. Bolivia, and Peru, af terward into the valley of the Amazon, along the whole range of the Andes, into the islands of the Pacific, acres whieh they will join hands with their kindred in New Zealand and Aus tralia. The English settlements in South Af rica, now essentially American, will spread over southern Africa, pushing the natives to the equator. The American farmer is to furnish the type of this new society. There will be no savages or serfs, , few drones or men of luxury; all be able to read and write and to use their acquirements. They will have homes of their own, and property enough of the very best and most educative kind that is in land to yield to their intelli gent industry sufficient means of support They will have no social or political superiors, and will manage their own affair. Thero will be few or none looking forward to a pauper's fate. The live, of the majority will be spent in the cultivation of their own land on tlte same terms which the American farmer now cultivates hia. ilAjv Morality wililz. ftiia society have a tremen dous force, because there will be only one mor ality for all, and not as now a separate moral ity for each class, it will be supported by the opinion of alL Women will play a larger part in the work of society than they have ever done. No pursuits will be favored by endow ments or bonnties. The competition between nations will be intellectual, not military com petition. Oratory, painting, sculpture and architecture will grow nuder it as never be fore. Money will be iu greater use and the firecious metsls have a higher value than ever, leligion will havo as strong a hold as ever on the human heart At tbe head of this mighty community the United States will stand moral ly though" not politically. The president of the United States will he its foremost man, and "ihe predominate power" will bo the press. Court Hay In a Tennessee Town. M. Quad in Detroit Free Press. The circuit court opened as I arrived here, although there was no special occasion for it as far as my offense was concerned. "Court day" in a southern town is a sort of Christmas and Fourth of July rolled into one. The turkey is left out, but the whisky is retained. It looked odd enough to see the clerk of the court smoking a pipe as be jotted down bis notes, but I forgot him as I saw that three of the jurors, two of the lawyers and a witness where each puffing a cigar, and a prisoner on trial for burglarly hopefully looking for some one to offer him one. Some of the spectators felt it their bounden duty to remove their hats while others had no feeling in tho case. The only man I saw in the court-room who didn't chew tobacco and try to spit six feet wm a lame man from Stewart county, who excused himself on the ground of dyspepsia and wanted to know if I could lend him a drink of whisky. But'the big scene was on the outside. Two hundred farmers had come in on horseback or by team to size up the racket They argued polities and got mad. They discussed religion and dared each other to knock a chip off his 6houlder. They "swapped" horses and mules and threw in broken heads to make it a bar gain. The "celebrated Indian doctor" was on hand with his liver cure and took in money as fastaa he could pass out the bottles. The min strel show was on hand for an evening perform ance, the man with the running mule won thiee races, and those who could Davigate when night came were looked upon as "pizen mean" if the did not offer a hand to those who could not.

Several years ago a broker in Chicago took into his employ as cook, a sharp-witted female who kept her ears open for "points," and in vested all her money in stocks. A year ago tha broker's wife died, but the cook still remained. A few days ago an unlucky speculation chopped off the big end of the master's purse, and he tent for the ccok and said : "Maria. I must move into a smaller and cheaper house, and I can no longer afford to pav you such high wages." 'Did you sell ahort?" she asked. Yes " "And got squeezed?" "Yes." "Well, you have given mo a great many pointers, and enabled me to lay by about $K),. 000, with two or three good things yet to hear from.
