run our AT LARGE.
In my last 1 gave you some of my impres-
sions of San Francisco,but 851 had only
been in the city a few days, they were nec-
essarily brief and general. I have seeen
more ‘of the city since. '- .
To an Eastern man it is a curious place-
It is the meeting-place of the Orient and
Occident—-the place where the strong, sclt-
reliant, fanciful Saxon and Celt Ime'et the
physically feeble but intellectualy strong
Celestial, thus displaying in ”n". city the
two extremes of civilization. It is a City
Which has no thunder or lightning, and, 1
may say, no winter or summer. To day, as
I write, the thermometer stands at 609.,
and a spring overcoat is comfortable. I Sit
in my rooui writing, comfortable only with
a coal fire, and from my-window I see, in
full bloom, fuschias, and geraniums trained
against the sides of houses, nasturtiums in
all their glory, roses of all varieties, till the
es tire of them, calla lillies of a'size that I -
never saw before, and all the flowers that
in the East are grown at this season only in
hot-houses, and which are never turned out
of doors till July or August. The hills
about the city on the bay are colored with
purple and yellow neper, and the roads are
lined with the yellow marigold and other
flowers which, owing to my lack of educa-
tion in botany, I cannot put a name to. It
is comfortablywarm in the sun, not too
warm, and very cool indoors or in the
shade. And, with the exception of a few
days iii July, this is as warm as it ever gets
here. The winters are but a trifle colder.
So the San Franciscan may be said to enjoy
a delicious spring all the year round. But
it does enjoy _
EARTHQUAKES, .
which come with considerable regularity,
and may beconsidered as a fair offset to
thunder and lightning. For it must be a
rather disagreeable thing to have the earth
under your feet heaving up and down and
sideways, and tumbling buildings about
your head, and all that sort ofthing. When
you can’t trust. the ground you stand on,
what can you trust? -
The city has experienced some severe
shocks. The’old Spanish residents tell of
one that occurred before the Yankees came,
that. made a fissure in the ground forty
miles in length, but I rather guess that each
generation has added ten miles to the crack.
It was probably a mile long. In 1868_a se-
riesqiof shocks disturbed the equauimity of
the .San Franciscans, destroying several
houses and. cracking a great many more.
Butgit is fair to state that the destroyed
and cracked houses were cheap structures
and,built on made ground. No well, sub-
stantially constructed building has ever
beenthrown down in the city by a. shock
as yet. The fear of these convulsions has
badljts effect upon the architecture of the
cityl-f:‘I‘heafir‘stis’e'ttler's built one or two sto-
rics, three at the most; but the later comers
have got over that, and all over the-city
very tall buildings showtheir heads. They
have discovered that a building properly
built and braced will stand any shock that
has yet occurred or is likely to. The new
Palace Hotel ,uow being built, is seven very
tall stories high. ' .
Earthquakes are not without their uses,
however. When the San Franciscan has
looked upon the wine all night, and comes
home in the morning,and weaves unsteadily
on the floor of the nuptial chamber, the
wife of his bosom remarks:
“ Ssm’l, what is ever the matter with
you I” »
The answer always is:
“ Sary, my love, the earth‘s a quakin‘.
kin hardly stan’ up under it.” -
In the country the unsteadiuess of the
earth is not feared, for'it can do no especial
damage. The buildings are all low and
strong, so they cannot be shaken down
casily,and the most violent shocks can dam-
age nothing else. Occasionally wells are
made dry and the course of streams are
clianged,but. these things do but little harm.
Only in cities and villages, where something
can fall on some one, is there any especial
dread, and that is fast wearing out. The
old residents laugh at it. They may, how-
ever, catch. one some day that will not be a
laughing'matter.
The fear of earthquakes has led to the
erection, in the city, of many thousands of
FRAME BUILDINGS. .
The majority of the residences are built
of wood ; indeed, all the really elegant ones
are of this material. There are scores of
long streets of wooden houses, many of
them three and tour stories in height. In
consequence,.thcre' will‘be here, some d-iy,
and that not very far off, ’0.
FIRE
that will dwarf that; of Chicago, and make
Boston ashamed of itself The conditions
are all here. All it wants is a party at Mrs.
O’Leary‘s, which requires milk for punch,
some night when there is a high wind.
There are thousands of acres covered with
houses built of red-wood, which is much
more infiamable than pine as pine is than
brick. And the lots are small—25380—so
thehouses stand as close together as the
tire-fiend could wish. Then to make it
more certain, the supply of water is short.
The'people here climb: of and expect it,
but they go on building red-wood houses all
the same.
now THE PEOPLE LIVE.
It is easier to live in San Francisco than
in any city on the continent. 'The supply of
fruits andvegetables ‘is beyond demand;
and such fruits! They have strawberries
from March to November, and such straw-
berries the undersigned never saw. Great
lueious berries, as big as hickory nuts, and
with a flavor that I_never knew in the East.
So far, I am not prepared to take up the cry
that California fruits have no flavor, which
is so common-in the East. All that I have
eatenwere even richer than the best I have
ever tasted east of the mountains. ButI
have not tried them all yet. - Green peas,
asparagus, new potatoes, turnips, and all
that kind 'oftruck',are'always in season.
The markets present a beautiful appearance,
tor there you shall see everything the appe-
tite craves for, and all of the best. We are
eating cherries now of all kinds, and oranges
are selling in the orchards south of San
Francisco at filly cents a bushel. - Think of
that! And they have a variety. The vege-
tables of China, Japan, and the islands of
the sea grow here better even than they do
on their native soil. So these favored peo-
ple gratifytheir-tastes with the delicacies of
two continents. San Francisco feeds well.
Rents arevcry high, however, which in
part balances the cheapness of provisions.
A house on a decent street, 25x40, costing
$3,000, on ground worth $2,000, rents read-
ily for $2,000 a year, or twenty per cent.
And on the better streets, rents are‘still
higher. . .. .
' DRY GOODS
are about the same as in the East, at retail,
1 mean. But heavens, how the women
dress .herel Kearney and Montgomery
streets will show more handsome and ex-
p ively dressed women any afternoon.
tli ii any two streetsin America. Not only
do they delight in costly fabrics, expensive-
ly made, but they indulge in jewelry to an
extent that makes a poor Easterner shudder.
Diamonds and. precious stones of all kinds
are common, and every lady seems to vie
with her neighbor as to the number and
size that she wears. Aside from the legiti
mate business of the city, which is not only
very largs,but very profitable, great for-
‘tunes are made here very suddenly in m.“
hing enterprises, and money thus made is
always easily spent. I saw one lady last.
Sunday, in church, who had on her fingers
seven diamond rings, to say nothing of her
bracelets, ear-drops and brooches, all of
which were diamonded till you couldn‘t
rest. Then every woman wears a great
rope of gold about her neck OllISlde of her
outer garments, and the larger the rope the
better. ' _
They wear good clothes and expensrve
jewelry ‘in this city. ' As fortunesare lost
here as quickly as they {c mace, it is pos-
sible that their hus ' have purchased
these things for the' all back upon 11]
the event of disaster. ' -'
Imagine a husband coming home to his
wife with the remark : “I‘m busted, Jane ;
strip 011' themdiamonds, for I want ’em to
start again.”
That has been said in San Francisco a

HOUSE—Mr. Miles, of Milford, called up
the order of the day,being the constitutional
amendments. _
The first resolution taken up was for fix-
ing the compensation of members of the
General Assembly at a sum not exceeding
"three hundred dollars” per annum, and
one mileage. _
Mr. Harrison, ol Guilford, chairman of
the committee, said that another resolution
would soon be submitted changing the
time of the annual election from April to
November, and the annual sessions of the
General Assembly in the winter. He ex-
plained the matter at length. He moved to
amend the~rcsolution so that the mileage
s'hall be computed at the rate of fifty cents
per mile.
The amendment was adopted.
Mr. Davenport, of Wilton, moved to in.
clude the doorkeepers and messengers.
Mr, Stevens, of Hartford, asked how ’the
mileage was to be computed.
Mr. Harrison replied that it was comput-
ed under the old law both ways.
Mr. Huntington, of Woodbury, Said it
Was boys" play to incorporate the doorkeep~
ers and messengers. They were appointees
of the House.
Mr. Davenport said that a law ofthe
State made the pay ofthe doorkeepers and
messengers the same as numbers, ,and all
knew that they got little enough.
Mr. Harrison l‘t'pllt'tl that the pi'tselll law
fired the salary of doorket-pcrs and messen-
gers at $3 per day of actual service, which
should be in lieu ui all other compensation ;
yet in the l'ice of this Li W the members of
this House had voted sums to these door-
keepers and messengers.
Mr. McMahon, ofNew Milford, was op-
posed to fixing the sum to be paid to mem-
bers ofthe Assembly in the fundamental
law ofthe land. He wanted to amend the
resolution so that any legislature could not
vote on their own pay. ,,
Mr. Davenport’s amendment w‘as defeated .
Mr. Brush, of Greenwich, oliered an amend-
ment providing that mileage should be
computed each way. If that was done, it
would barely cover the cost of commutation
on the several railroads during the session,
adopted.
Mr. Robinson, ofNew Britain, moved to
indefinitely postpone the resolution.
The motion to postpone was lost by a.
decided vote, and the resolution passed.
The second resolution taken up was for
amending the constitution of the State so
that by a two-thirds vote of both houses of
the General Assembly the privileges of an
elector who may have forfeited the same by
conviction of crime could be restored. The
resolution was passed by the last General
Assembly, and the constitution provides
that it must be passed by a two-thirdsvote
The resolution was passed by a unanimous
vote of 230. with 14 abseutces.
The third resolution taken up provides
that state officers and members of the As-
sembly shall be elected on the first Tuesday
after the first Monday in November; that
the State oflicers and one-half of the mem-
bers of the Senate shall be elected for two
years; the members of the House to be
elected each year.
The resolution was passed. The vote
stood 227 to l—absent 16, Mr. J. G. Smith,
of Westbrook, voting “ no.”
A Bosrox Eamon—The Bostonians
always‘have a. pet fashion of their own that
is universally adopted. Just now, accord-
ing to the authority of the Boston Trans-
cript, the ruling passion runs to striped
India shawls or their imitations. A walk
on Washington street ism]! that is needed
to coulirm this assertion, for these shawls
may be counted there by thousands, of
every shade va'iety and value. Boston
seems to enjoya monopoly of the fashion,
for a feminine observer ofthe ruling modes,
who knows whereof she afiirms, reports
that during an afternoon walk on Broad-
way, scarcely half-a-dozen striped shawls
can be seen, whileou Washington street it
would be difficult to find half-a-dozen
ladies who were not wearing Iliosc eom-
fortable wraps. The same observer says
that duing the past winter, ifa. lady arrived
at one ofthe hotels in Washington clad in
a striped shawl, it was immediately coir
eluded that she was a Boston lady. The
conclusion was found to be a reliable one
in numberless test instances. The same
lady, endeavoriug to purchase a camel’s
hair shawl of this kind in London, was told
by the shop-keeper that her order could not
be filled for the whole stock and whole
production were at present demanded by
the Boston trade.
An English “lady pickpocket"—hiiss
Clay, alias Spencer, alias Wilson—was
some time ago sentenced in Paris to three
years’ imprisonment. In the female peni-
tentiary of St. Lawrence hcr conduct is des-
cribed as exemplary. She knelt down de-
votedly to Mass, very frequently communi-
cated and so gained the confidence of the
Sisters of Charity in charge that, she was
great many times, and will be a great many
more.

lliair is thickened, falling hair rho: L,
and baldness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
.stroyed, or the glands atrophiml and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that; a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a. pasty selli‘
meant, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or liilling oil‘, and
consequently prevent baldness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalparrests and prevents the flu-imp
tion of dandruff, which is often so im-
cleniily :iiiil oii'ciisivc. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for :i HAIR. DRESSING,
nothing else can be tbitud so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not: soil white eaiiibric, and yet lasts
longon the hair, giving it: a. rich, glossy
lit-sire, and a grateful perfume.

The speaker’s voice was hushed at last-
He had no more to tell,
And from that weary audience
Arose a grateful yell.
Yet one there was, ofgentler mould,
Who,gazing toward the skies,
Drew forth a kerchief spotless white,
And wiped his streaming eyes.
But when with trembling hand he sought
That kerchief to restore,
Au onion of Convenient size
Rolled out upon the floor.
An Indianapolis Serenade.
Before going to serenade your girl it is al-
ways best to ascertain first if your music is
calculated to soothe all members of the fam-
ily. One of our young men learned this too
late. After practicing for two or three days,
he concluded, Thursday night, to give his
girl a serenade. lie planted himself under
her windows, opened his mouth, and clove
the night air Qvith—
“ mailing, still waiting- -
I‘m w - a-iting my da—harling l‘ur iii-cc."
He didn’t have to wait long; his darling
came booming around the corner 01 the
house in the shape of a big dog about the
came possessed with a desire tojump. lie
swears he could havejumpcd over the moon.
'But he didn’t; he contented himself with the
fence, and jumped that, leaving a square
foot of shoddy cloth and about fifteen cents
worth of integumcnt as a memento. l’e
will not mention his name,but he will stand
up in church for a few meetings.
Saturday Herald.
Several passengers on the lower Missis~
sippi were attracted by the alligators bask-
ing in the sunshine. “Are they amphibious
Captain ‘l—” asked a locker-on. “Amphibious,
thunder 1" answered the enthusiastic officer,
“ They’ll cat a hog in a minute.
“ She walks in beauty, like the, night of
cloudless clime and starry skies," cannot
always be truthtully said of a man’s wife
who sails nervously across her bed-room to-
ward the coal shovel as soon as she hears
him burrowing into the front door with his
night key.
A witness, in describing certain events,
said: “ The person I saw at the head of the
stairs was a man with one eye namedJacob
Wilkins.” “ What was the name of his
other eye ?" spilefully asked the opposing
counsel. The witness was disgusted at llll‘
levity of the audience.
A man was seen coming out. of a Texas
newspaper office with one eye gougcd 0111,
his nose spread all over his face like a piece
of raw beef, and one of his ears chawed off.
To a policeman who interviewed him he
replied: “I didn’t like an article that ‘peared
in the paper last week, an' I went in ter see
the man who writ it. He war there, stran-
ger.”
