A VILLAGE OF SOCIALISTS. Town in In i.o bu Unknown, One of the most voinarlcablo communities in Europe is a little villnffC on the const of Kronch Flanders, in which for more tlirec hundred years a sort of socialism or communism has prevailed, nnnuived by tho numerous revolutions Unit huve in ull that time Bwept over France. The place is known as Fort Mardyelc, and it is historic p-round. Here the Romans under Julius Cmsar estdblisliod a port und a fortress, nud from this place they set out on their invasion of the British isles- When Uoman rulo in Gaul was ended, the fort remained, and the port of Mtirdyck was lonp a prosperous anil important one, lint its downfall cumo Charles II. sold Dunkirk, which it adjoins, to the French.

It was soon after this event, however, that the socialist village- was founded. Nor was that the last, of the Stuarts' in to rust in the place. For it is told that when tho Young- I'retender hud, in 1774, persuaded Louis XV. oi V'raneu to aid him with money and men in his efforts to regain the tlirono the expedition was delayed by a storm, and tho leader of tho was awaiting his opportunity at (n-uvoiincs. One day ho had set, out for aloiifr the coast and had strayed as far Mardyck, when he ivas overtaken by a heavy shower of iirul iMinpMliMl to seek refuse in he- farm of a i-ertain Andro IvumoUe, who, unaware of the quality of his ivueivesl flu: Pretender with hospitality.

The princo was so elicited with the of his HIS', he a week on the farm, li.s K'lvatlj' thinned at his disappearance- to have frequently revisited La- untie bcfnre settim: sail for Knyhir.d. Tho of Fort Manlyok was rounded by i.nni.s XIV. in 1571). French bad down to that time been subjcel to many owners, and its in- isib'itants wciv chiefly At uiy rate almost none of thorn were The ivinff deemed it well, to plant a colony of pure there, whose members, steadily ncroasinfr in numbers, should servo to cavon tho whole lump. He also decided to make it a sailors' village, of vhich all the men should be bound to lo maritime service for "iiti.

On a call. (oinff made for volunteers to establish such a village, four families of Cnuq, in 'icardv, responded. Their names ivei-o Evorart. lienard and The kins accepted them, and rranted them, for their own use and Jiai of their descendants, somi) three iiir.iJred acres of land situated at Fort Mnrdyek. These men entered huo possession the land on thu that they woro bound to submit to mari- iim'e eonscrlption und to exercise the irotVssion of a sailor.

At different of H.s proifross tho colony of Fort Mardyck had to contend with attempts leveled against, its pririlepe. None of rls opponents were successful, lowever, und in Louis XV. ratiiied the concessions granted by his predecessor by means of a decree, and reserved to tho Fort Mardyck people the exclusive rijjiit of fishing 1 o)f Mardyck. The village and its royal (-rant of land have remained unaffected by tho numerous changes which have occurred in Franco since Louis XIV. down to the present time.

The area of tho laud acres, has not been increased. Hut the population of the village has grown, until now it cumbers more than seventeen hundred. It is therefore becoming decidedly crowded. The land is divided into two portions. One half is let to farmers.

The rentals thus received form the revenue of the village and serve amply for the payment of state taxes and for the distribution ot relief to members of the community standing in need of assistance. The remaining portion of the land is allotted to the inhabitants of Fort Mardyck, each one receiving 1 at the time of his or her marriage about halt an acre. Under no circumstances may the Fort Mardyck native vesif;" his ownership. Ho may secure a tenant for his share of the and, but no further transfer is permitted. This rule, which, unlike others, is marked by no exceptions, )ias proved instrumental in inducing the villagers to marry early in life.

Their'fields invariably produce more, vegetables than they require for their own maintenance, and they sire, therefore, enabled to derive fair profit from the sale of tho extra supply. while tho husband is away at sea, the Fort Mardyck woman does not depend for her support on his waffos. Sho is able to subsist on the produce of the land, and when the man returns his pay is intact As soon, therefore, as a native of Fort Mardyek receives his land and builds his cottage he may regard himself as secure for life- for should ho be unable to save enouffh money for his old age, ho will be maintained out of the common "The government of the village is purely republican. The present mayor is named Everart, and is a direct descendant of one of tho founders of the place. "Wo manage our own aftairi, he says, "and defray our own expenditure.

We built our public school by subscription, and I am sure we never cost the state a sou. We are a very healthy people here. We marry early and lead regular lives. Families of ten or twelve children aro by no means rare, and in a single year I have registered as many as seven births of twins. At this rate our population doubles In thirty years.

I suppose that eventually we shall bo compelled todimmish our allotments, as we are hemmed in on all sides by tho neighboring villages. Besides, I am sure the state not give us any more land. We have no paupers. Of course there are a few old people who are needy. But as they hare their cottages and fields, a small subsidy from tho common fund Keeps them VBTV comforUbUr- Vou see our people cannot sell their land, and so, even if they arc improvident, our rules prevent them from rushing to Philadelphia Telegraph.

LOST IN THE MAIL. TliBCurloomMpMuia at the Dead-Letter WitftlilUKton- The museum contains munj' curious and interesting 1 things. In one ease is a mail-pouch with an shush made by sharp knife and stained with blood. The carrier returning from Lochiel, 1SSS, was killed by Apache Indians, who destroyed the mails, leaving- this bag-on the ground. In another place may be seen five letters that claim an aristocracy of antiquity, boinjr severally stumped ifM.

nod Among 1 the books is a New Testament in Chinese, a life of Ignatius Loyola in Italian, printed in Venice in 1711, and a French volume wliich dates back to 1087. Near by is the Lord's I'rayer in Inng-uafjes, and a certificate of character to an apprentice from his master. The certificate is in German, and was brought to tin's country a hundred years afro.
