During the recent journey of Queen Victoria from Windsor to Balmoral the public were excluded from the stations, except at Windsor and Oxford, and instructions were given to the porters to perform all necessary work on the platform, without noise, so that the Queen might be perfect- , ly undisturbed during the i ight journey. She will remain at Balmoral i.bout a month, and then return to Windsor. A story comes from Fairfield, Herkimer county, N. Y.,ofa music-loving dove. It is said that when the piano is played in the house of the dove’s owners it will fly into the house and perch on the head of the performer, where it will remain until < the piece is played, when it will jump on the key-board of the piano and hop about the keys, thus producing sounds it seems to enjoy.

The position the Duchess of Edinburgh is to occupy at court has at last been definitely settled, and the world may turn again from its suspense to its muttons in consequence.

Tho giand blaze of glory in which die made hei first apnearance having very considerably faded out, the ladies of her .adopted country begin to perceive that she is dowdy, and hesitate not at all in telling what they see.

A female friend, amiable, clever and devoted, is, he tells us, a possession beyond all price, without which as few men succeed. in life, so none are content. It would scarcely lessen the value of such a friend to a man if she happened to be his wife, unless home and wife were such ideas to him as they appear to have been to the famous Frenchman who would not marry the lady whose society had been his greatest enjoyment for years, because be would then have nowhere to spend his evenings. flow a “Drunken Irishman” was Entertained. The people of Jacksonville, Florida, are —having their fun over one of their hotel peepers. The story is told as follows: A rough-looking man entered the hotel, and —'Wrote his name upon the register. His face and hands were sunburned, and his eves looked bloodshot. The watchman thought that he detected a smell of whisky about his clothes. A gray flannel shirt, torn 1 coat, and dirty breeches, and scaly brogang i were all tha': the visitor wore. The watchman gazed at him a few seconds, as if unplicant very closely smelled of him. There was a taintof liquor in the air. ‘Oh, you want a room, old fellow?” the watchman said. “Well, just step here a moment, and keep your hands in your pockets while I run up stairs and see if the landlord will assign you one.” “ There's a man down stairs wants t room,” the watchman said. “ Who Is he?-’ inquired the Deacon. " A drunken old uishmau,” was the re

piy. , •• What does he look like?” was the interrogatory. “ Look like?” replied the watehman. “ He’s the worst looking Irishman that J ever saw, and he’s drnnk.” “ Well, slap him in Ho. 40. I guess that’s good enough for him.” “ I guess that It's better than he ever had before,” answered the vratchman as hi: dosed the door. Down stairs be dashed. The baggage was all safe. The Irishman stood facing the register with his hands in his pockets. “ 'I his way, old fellow,*' the watchman exdalmed, again mounting the steps. The old Celt followed him. Ho. 40 was ia (tramped apartment in the top of a wing ot the hotel immediately over the kitchen. The carpet was dusty, the nose of the wash pitcher was broken, and the furniture geiieridly was not calculated to please a fastidious taste. “ Is this my room ?” the Irishman asked. “ Yes, this is your room,” replied the watchman. “ Well, then,” add the Celt, “I must tell 7™ that this won't do, j: want a linger j

yourself i lightv lucky to get this room. If 1 wu the juroprietor,! would hoist youInto the hay-mow.” ' * The old Irishman stared at the watchman m pc rfeet surprise. It was some seconds bet >re he could catch his breath. “ I’m greatly obloiged to ye for your impertinence, he said. “ but if I cawn’t find accommoi lations here I must go where I can find tiem.” “ That’:) right, old fellow, you’d better go to tie Grand National. That’s the place for such slouchy old roosters as you.” And the indignant old Celt marched down thrse flights of stairs,folio wed by the equally irdignant watchman. As the old man was about to pass out the front door, he met a I lalf-dozen hard-fisted companions about to cuter. “Hold on, boys,” he scud, “ this is too aristocratic for ooe. The National is the place for such slouchy ould roosthers -as 006.” f\ And th ey went to the other hotel. Tiro large express wagons loaded with trunks [ traveled in their wake. The whippoorwills laughed Jit them as they passed under the water oaks shading the public square, and the stars shone brightly as they disappeared under the portico. When lie sun aros€ the landlord came down stairs with a fine appetite. “ Good morning, Kingsbury,” he said. “How’s 3 our drunken Irishman this morning? Is he up yet ? ” * “ No, sir,” replied the watchman. “ No. 40 wasn’i good enough for him. He wanted the bridal chamber, and I made him dust.” Here the Deaeon stepped to the register, and began to read the list of arrivals. Suddenly his eyes dilated. A flush overi spread Ids countenance. Putting his forefinger upon the book he shouted, , “ Here, Kingsbury. What’s this ? Look here.” _ The w itchman looked at the finger. It pointed to the name of “ 5ibGkokgsGowt, England.’* “ Oh, j rood Lord,” he exclaimed,that was the. drunken Irishman! ” .

Oar dispatches from Topeka in yesterday’s Ti nes must have been read with great satisfaction by all who desire to see the downfall of the dominant party in Kansas. They ini ormed us of the harmonious union ofaUthe elements of opposition upon a broad and liberal basis of equality, and give evidence of the fact that the next campaign will be contested by a more formidable com filiation than the Radical party of that State has ever before been.called upon to face. Democrats, Liberal Republicans, Granger 5, and all opposed to a further perpetuation of the present corrupt regime, have united in one organization—as Independent Reformers—to effect its overthrow an d give the State what it has not had for many years—an honest and economical administration of affairs. This is the one object in view, and for its accomplishment ill other considerations have been waived. A harmonious union has been effected, satisfactory alike to all interested, which from the very start carries with it the prestige of success. The n scessity that has brought about this new movement in Kansas is no ordinary one. For twelve years the Radicals have had full and entire control of the State and local governments, and secure in an overwhelming majority in almost every counri they have elected their local and State ofliaers and are entirely responsible for the administration of affairs. They have ruled Kansas with the .most arbitrary and unscrupulous partisanship, and at the same time with an extravagance and corruption that cat only exist where a party feels secure in its overwhelming majority. The consequence is that though amongst the youngest of the States, Kansas ranks them all .in reputation for venal and corrupt politicians. It is needless to recapitulate the open and outrageous practices of its Federal and State officials, which have given tc it the name of the “rotten common we: 11th. ’ They are known to all the country over, and have brought the blush o( shame to the cheek of many an honest Kansan i

out Hi is not alone m reputation that the State h£;j suffered. These corruptions and bargain-; and sales of officials have eaten into the very vitals of its material prosperity. Local rings have fattened off the substance of the people, and State treasurers have hazarded their hard earned taxes ia unla wful speculations. Federal rings have placed in Jeopardy the homes of thousands, and from one end of the State to the other the people have been plundered to enrich Radical officials and their followers. These practices are last sapping the life-blood of the people, and at las't they have arisen in their might and determined 1o rid themselves of the plunderers. Stem necessity alone has induced them to lay aside their prejudices and partisanship lor the time being and unite in one effort for common defense against the , plunderers. T tiey gladly welcome any movement that bid;; fair to relieve them ot the present corrupt dominant party, and hence the anion of all the elements of opposition to it at Tc|>eka on Wednesday.—Kansas City Times. The Debts of the Prince of Wales. A Loudon correspondent has been prying int:i the finances ot the future King of Great Britain, and says that he owes debts to the amount of $300,000. Some of these debts l ave been running for a long time, and the creditors are somewhat impatient for the ir money. How did it happen that the Pri nce got so deeply into debt ? Who can tel! ? From his birth up to his majority the revenues of the Duchy of Cornwall were saved :up for him. Last year his income from this source was £62,349. It was net so much until his shrewd father stoppe 1 many leaks in its administration, but the sum saved must have been large. Then there is his annual allowance from Partial pent, and the annual allowance to his wife, and while he pays no rent for his town residence, Marlborough House, he a small income from his tenants ai> his country (state, Sandiingham. Besides all this, his late lamented father is Iknowii to have left a very large amount ot money, although it is probable that his moth( r keeps very close guard over this. No one can tell anything about it, for if the Prince Consort left a will his widow has never sent it to be recorded. But on the whole, one would be inclined to say that a gentleman with an income of $450,-1 000 a year ought to keep out of debt, even if he liad a large familv of small children and entertained much company. The Prices of Wales has mot kept out of debt. He owes, as I have said, $300,000, and the Government is about to ask Parhaiteeut to pt,y lus debts. Thcpropoaition will stiraagai - '“•.■‘ain debts him by the Queen. The tenth is, I believe, that t he Prince, who is a very shrewd fellow i a money matters, has always borrowed th; funds which have been expended on these occasions, refusing to use his own momy for such purposes, and saying that in the end either Parliament or his mother must pay the debts thus contracted. II a raison. The simple justice of the case would seem to demand that the Queen shoa d pay the money._

ad the Ark. t ofthe New York Jndel'n the autumn of 1830 I attended a Methodist cuno-roteticj in the interior of Georgia and heard a sermon which I have never been ahie to forget or describe. The speaker had just been licensed and it was his first semf($n. In person he was small, bullet-headed, of a lair, sandy complexion, and his countenance was indicative of sincerity Sfid honesty. He was taking np the Bible in regu.ar order for the first time in his life, ana had gotten as far as the history of Noah and the ark, the flood, etc. Besides, “just before his conversation he had been reading Goldsmith’s ’Animated Nater,’ and the two together, by the aid and assistance of the Spent, had led him into a powerful train of thinking, as lie stood at his workbench, day in and day out.” The text was, “As it was in the days of Noah so shall the coming of the Son of Man be,” and he broke out in the following strain: * “ Yes. my brethren, the heavens of the windows was opened-oh, and the floodgates of the g-r-e-a-t deep kivered the ’ waters-ah, ana there Shem and there Ham :.and there Japheth-ah, was a-H a-gwine into the ark-ah. “ And there was the elephant-ah, that g-r-e-a-t animal-ah, of which Goldsmith describes in his ‘ Animated Nater’-ah, what is as big as a house-ah, and his bones as lag as a tree-ah, a-H a-gwine into the ark-ah. And the heavens of the windows was opened-ah, and the floods of the g-r-e-a-t deep kivered the waters-ah, and there was Shem, and there was Ham, and there was Japheth-ah, a-1-1 a-gwine into the ark-ah. “ And there was the hippopoptumns-ah, the g-r-e-a-t animal-ah, of which Goldsmith describes in his ’Animated Nater’-ah, what has a g-r-e-a-t hom-ah a-stickin’ right straight np out of his foreward-ah six feet long, more or less-ah, depending somewhat on the length of it-ab, a-l-l agwine into the ark-ah. “And there was the giraffe-ah, my brethren, that ill-contrived reptile, ol which Goldsmith describes in his ’Animated Nater’-ah, whose fore-legs is twentyfive feet long-ah, more or less-ah, depending somewhat on the length of ’em-ah, and a neck so long he can eat hay of! the top of a barn-ah, depending somewhat on the hithe of the barn-ah, a1-i a-gwine into the ark-ah. And the heavens of the windows was opened-ah, and the floods of the great deep kivered the waters-ah, and there was Ham and there was Shem, and there was Japheth-ah, a-1-1 a-gwine into the ark-ah. “ And there was the zebra, my bretb-ren-ah, that b-e-a-u-t-i-t-u-1 animal of which Goldsmith describes in his ’Animated Na-ter’-ah, what has 300 stripes a-rnnnin’ right straight around his body-ah, more or less, depending somewhat on the number of stripes-ah, and nary two stripes alike-ah, a-1-1- a-gwine into the ark-ah. “And there was the anaconder-ah, that g-r-e-a-t sarpint of which Goldsmith describes in his ’Animated Nater’-ah, what can swallow six oxen at a meal-ah, provided his appetite don’t call for less-ah, a-H a-gwine into to the ark-ah. And the heavens of the windows was opened-ah, and the floods of the deep kivered the watersah, and there was Shem, and there was Ham, and there was Japheth-ah, a-H a-gwine into the ark-ah. •

• Ana there was the non, Dretnren-ah. what is the king of beasts, accordin’ to Scripter-ah, and who, as St. Paul says-ah, prowls around of a night like a roarin’ devil-ah, a-seekin’ if he can’t catch some-body-ah; a-1-1 a-gwine into the ark-ah. “And there was the antelope-ah. my, brethren, that frisky little critter-ah, ot which Goldsmith describes in his ’Animated Nater’-ah, what can jump seven ty-tive foot straight up-ah, and twice that distance down-ah, provided his legs will take him that fur-ah, a-1-1 a-gwine into the ark-ah. And the heavens of the windows was openah, and the floods of the great deep kivered the waters-ah, and there was Shem, and there was Ham, and there was Japheth-ah, ad-1 a-gwine into the ark-ah. “But time would fc.il mev^gjr brethren, to describe all the animus Htat went into the ark-ah. Your patiehee-" and my strength would give out before I got halt througb-ah. We talk, my brethren, about the faith of Abraham and the patience ot Job-ah; but it strikes^ me they didn’t go much ahead of old Noer-ah. It tuck a right smart chance o’ both to gather up all that gopher-wood and pitch and other truck for to build that craft-ah. I am a sort of carpenter myself, and have some idea of the job-ah. But to hammer, and saw, and maul, and split away on that one thing a hundred and twenty year-sh, an’ lookin’ for his pay in another world-ah—I tell ye, my brethren, if the Lord had a-sot Job at that, it’s my opinion he would a tuck his wife’s advice, inside of fifty yearah. Besides, no doubt, his righteous soul was vexed, every day, hand runnin’, with the filthy communications of the blasphemous set that was always a-loaferin’ and a saunterin’ around-ah, a-pickin’ up his tools and a misplacin’ ’em, and a-calli:i\ him an old fool or somethin’ worse-ah; and, to cap the climax, he was a preacher, and that ungodly gineration on his'hands, every Sunday-ah. But the Lord stood by him through the job-ah; and when everything was ready he didn’t sepd Noer out to scrimmage, an’ scour and hunt all over the wild world for to git up the critters and varmints that he wanted saved-ah. They all came to his hand of their own accord, and Noer only had to head ’em in and fix ’em around in their places^ih. Then he gathered up his own family, and the Lord shut him in, and the heavens of the windows was open-ah. S.. “ But my brethren, Noer-ah had use for patience after this-ah. Think what a time he must a-had a-feedin’ and a-waterin’ and a-clearin’ out after sich a erowd-ah. Some of ’em, according to Goldsmith’s ’Animated Nater-ah’, was camivorions, and wanted fresh meat-ah; and some was herbivorions, and wanted vegetable food-ah; and some' was wormivorious. and swallowed live things whole-ah; and he had to d everything accordin’ to his nater. nee we view, my brethren-ah, as the .ter of the animals wasn’t altered bv goin’ to the ark-ah, some of ’em would roar, and howl„ahd bark, and bray, and squeal, and blat fhe whole indurin’ night-ah, adrivin’ sleep from his eyes and slumber from his eyelids-ah; and at the first streak of daylight the last hoof of ’em would set up a noise accordin’to his nater-ah, and the bulls of Bashan wern’t no whar-ah. I’ve often wondered how their women stood it. Scripter is silent on this pint-ah; but I think I know of some that would abeen vapory and nervous under sich cir-cumstances-ah, and, in an unguarded moment, might a-said somethin’ besides their prayers-ah. * “ My brethren, one word more for old Noer-ah and I will draw to a dose-ah. After the outbeatin’ time he had, first and last, for so many hundred year-ah, if he did, bv accident or otherwise, take a little too much wine on one oocaskm-ah,I think lessortto arbeen mid about it-ah. Besides, I think he was «ntitlpd*w one spree-ah, as he made the wine hisself. and, accordin’ to Scripter’, it makes glad the heart o’ man-ah. brethren, as it was in the days of U to shall the coming of the Son of be-ah. The world will never be led agin-ah. It will be sot afire, and burnt up, foot and branch, with a fervient heat-ah. Oh! what will wretched, ondone sinners do on that orfhl day-ah? They won’t feel fit for to live, nor for to die-ah. They will be put to their wits’ end, and knock and straddle around in every aireo-tion-ah. For all at onct, my brethren-ah, they will behold the heavens a darkenin’ah, the seas a-roarin’-ah, the tombs a bust-in’-ah, the mountinsa-meltin’-ah and everything, I think, will be in a confused an# onsettled state.”

Testing foxjietallic Poisons. When food, portions of the body, or the contents of the stomach, are to be analysed for the purpose of proving the presence or absence of metallic poisons, the first and most difficult part of the operation is the destruction of the organic matter without expelling the poison. Yerryken proposes to accomplish this by oxidizing it in a combustion tube. Oxygen gas is purified by passing it through sulphuric add or asbestos, and then conducted through the ordinary combustion tube containing the suspected substance. The tube is heated inteBteely sthroughout its whole length, except where the organic matter is placed, and the current or oxygen so regulated that the substance shall not take fire, and that nq particles of matter are carried off by the gas. After burning the tube is rinsed with boiling nitric acid, and then with boiling water. This liquid is clear and colorless, and can be used for making all the teats. Experiments made

- A man named A. W. Fullie moved to Atchison, Kansas, about a year ago, and lived alone with his daughter, at least nobody else was seen about the house. They lived in pretty good style, and appeared to be respectable people. Some of the neighbors felt a disposition to be neighborly, and one of them called one day to visit the daughter, a young lady about twenty years old. The visitor was told by Fullie that his daughter was afflicted with epilepsy, and seeing a strange face always threw her into fits. For this reason the girl was not permitted to see strangers. The visitor left without seeing the girl. Fuilie was always about the house, and seemed to be guarding it against the inroads of visitors. The neighbors got an idea into their heads that there was a mystery about the house, and the longer they nursed the idea the mine it grew, and waxed strong and became a certainty. They conceived an intense desire to visit and be friendly with Fullie and become acquainted with the epileptic girl if possible, in addition to other queer circumstances of Fuliie’s home life, some ofhis attentive, sharp-eared neighbors heard screams in the house at night, and wondfccd- mneh who made them. Their thought was that Fullie was in the habit of beating his daughter, and therefore kept her a prisoner that she might not run-away or expose him,^ or cause any other trouble that a complaining woman kndws so well how to make. And still Fullie haunted his own house, and the neighbors tried" to look through tlie cracks and windows, bat saw nothing. That shriek, which sometimes pierced the ear of night -and made their blood curdle in their veins, stuck to their memories like a burr in a man’s beard. They could not reconcile that unearthly sound with honesty or humanity. At length the neighbors could bear the suspense no longer, and they told the police what they had seen and heard and suspected. A detective was appointed to shadow the house. One day it appeared that Fullie was away, and then it was determined to enter the mysterious abode and make an examination. Some policemen undertook the neighborly task. They went to work. The girt was found within. She was timid and flustered, and starty—evidently uneasy about something, but she did not fly into tits. She stated to the officers that her father had gone to Kansas City to get work, and would not be back for some days. They told her they had come to explore the house, and started to go down into the cellar. She forbade them going, but they broke the door open and went. The cellar was dark and stiflingly close. Its windowSTTSd" all been blinded and its lungs were choked. In one corner of the cellar was a nearly naked woman shackled and chained. By her side was a dish containing some bad-looking meat and hard bread. The explorers had arrived at the heart of the mystery and plucked it out of that dark cellar. The woman said she was the wife of Fullieand the step-mother of the girl. Her husband said she was crazy, and had kept her chained there a year. She denied the charge of insanity, and was glad somebody had come to release her from her dungeon. She was brought np into the light and looked pale and haggard, but showed no crazy signs. The girl was gone when the ascent of the cellar steps was made. She had been suddenly seized with a fit of leaving. The woman was taken to a neighbor’s house and washed, and dressed, and combed, and came out a very respectable looking lady, as gentle as a lamb, and as sensible as any other woman. The house that had been such an object of interest to the neighbors is now deserted. The girl did not keep house very w.ll during her father’s absence, and has doubtless gone to join him. The authorities are making efforts to find them. Fuliie’s neighbors have put themselves under the necessity of providing an asylum for Fuliie’s wife,:bnt their curiosity is satisfied and they know ’that there was something mysterious in the house.

'“Marier Jane!” called Bijah, as he handed ant a lone woman and led her around to the chalk-mark. “ And Marier was drunk,” added his Honor, in a sad voice; “ forty-three years old, going rapidly to the grave, and yet so drunk that you had to be hauled down here on a wheelbarrow,” * “On a hand-cart, sir,” she corrected, showing considerable interest. “ WeU, there is a difference between a hand-cart and a wheelbaftow,” he went on, “• but it doesn’t make any difference in this case. In feet the hand-cart was the easiest thing to draw you on, and more small boys could gather around it. I will alter the complaint to make it read ‘ hand-cart,’ and now I want to know what you have to say about it?” Tears came to her eyes, her corset gave a heave or two, and she whispered: “ I wanted to go to thedreus!” “Ah! that touches a tender chord,” sighed the Court, as he> leaned back and listened to the mnsis of the brass band a good day for hiring cashiers; wholesale merchants said they didn’t want a bead book-keeper that day, and leading jewelers advised him to go and learn how to hang himself. Thus he was rebuffed and discouraged at every turn. His ducats went one by one, his clothing gave out, and when found he was sitting upon a pile of clam-shells in an alley, straw m his hair, tears, in his eyes, and a general lonesomeness about his faoe that made the policeman think of the time he was lost in a whortleberry swamp in the north woods. “ I’d like to take you off one side and sit down and struggle with you,” said his Honor, “but there’s others to come, and the struggling business is adjourned sine die. Have you anything to say why I shouldn’t send you up for three months?” “I want three lawyers and a jury,” replied die prisoner. “ I could send out and get you a dozen lawyers and a hundred jurymen,” said the Court, “ but it isn’t necessary.

Tnfese cards disappeared with wonderful rapidity, so much so, that the doctor had his suspicions aroused. “Jo,” said the doctor, one morning, “what has become of those cards which Iplaced on Hie table in the outer office?” “Cards, sir?” repeated the boy. “Yes, cards,” reiterated the doctor. “I took ’em,” replied the boy proudly. “What have you done with them?” my mother told me before I left that I most make myself useful to ny employer, and so most every day when [ haven’t anything else to do I just throw them into the horse-cars as they pass Hie corner,”—Boeton Journal.

An Ohio man gives the following method of killing' burdocks!: “In the spring, when they first come up, cut off the tops and sprinkle thickly with salt, and yon will not he bothered any more with die Ones treated in this manner.” For chafed shoulders in hones, wash with warm soft water and castile soap and then dress with erode petroleum. If ulcerated, was h them with carbolic soap and apply petroleum afterward. If possible, let the noirse rest a few days. . Simply wetting and rubbing the stained doth in odd water will remove all traces of grass stains. Fruit stains will disappear on application of boiling hot water. No soap should be used in either case. To disperse freckles, take 1 ounce ol lemon juice, I drachm of sugar; mix and let them stand a few days in a glass bottle till the liquor is lit for nse, then rob itron the hands ai$ face occasionally. Fumigating poultry houses with sulphur, thrown on glowing coals in an earthen vessel, and keeping the house dosed for several hours, is said to be a perfect remedy for insects of all kinds. The poultry must be removed before the experiment , Cracked Stoves.—Don’t let your stove smoke, merely because there is a crack in it; but take common wood ashes and salt, make a paste with a little water, apply it to the aperture and the crack will be dosed in a moment. It can be put on when the stove is hot, as easily as when it. is coldMuffins.—1 quart of milk, 4 eggs, a little salt, and a teaspoonful of melted butter. Beat the yelks of the eggs, add the milk, salt, and butter, and flour enough to make a batter; then add yeast enough to make it rise. Beat the whites to a froth, and stir them in at the last. As soon as the batter is light, grease the muffin rings, fill them about halt full, and bake slowly. Loaf Cam.—1 pound of flour,$ pound •of butter, j pound of sugar, 3 eggs, I teaspoonful cream-tartar, and J teaspoonful of soda dissolved separately. Beat the batter and sugar together, whisk the eggs very light and add them. Then stir in the cream-tartar and flodr with milk enough to make a very stiff batter; add the soda and bake in a moderate oven. Hard Soap.—One 25 cent box of concentrated lye dissolved in $ gallon of rain water; pour in a vessel to cool; melt 5 pounds clean lard or tallow; when milkwarm pour in your lye, very slowly, and stir rapidly; continue stirring until it be- £' as to thicken; add any perfume desired; ve ready aclean box afoot square; pour in and cover air tight; let it remain three or four days, then cut up in cakes.—Country Gentleman.

cocoanut cracknels.—xo x quart good oatmeal, medium grade (that usually known as Scotch oatmeal), add ? spoonfuls of sugar and 4 of desiccated cocoanut, or 6 of freshly grated cocoanut. Then add gills of boiling water, or what will barely wet it, so it can be rolled out.. Flour the board well and roll to one-fifth of an ineh thick, cut out with a cake cutter. stick a currant in the center of each, and' bake in a moderate oven about twenty minutes, or until they will break readil'r between the thumb and fingers. Watc’i them closely that they do not browr. Serve them as cakes. The Country Gent liman advises grass garden walks. A correspondent spade] up all his walks, added good soil enough to raise them to a level with the adjoining beds, raked and rolled them till they were firm and even, and then sowed them wit i mixed lawn-grass seed, scratching in with a rake. “ In three weeks I had the pleasure of walking on green velvet instead ©t gritty gravel, and'with the help of the lawn mower have no further trouble with my paths. Always green and pleasant to the root and eye, never washing, nqver weedy, never muddy, never wet, being above the garden level, they area ‘iov forever, ^ and the perfection of garden walks.” Etiquette at St. James. The Czar of Russia was at unusual pains to deprive the quidnuncs of any excuse for clothing his recent visit to England with a political character by leaving behind him on the continent Prince Gortschakoff and all the other political personages who had accompanied him from St. Petersburg to Wurtemberg to attend to the wedding of his neice, the Grand Duchess Vera, a sister of the unlucky Nicholas, who has just been made so disagreeably notorious in consequence of his experiments upon the jewelcase of his grand-ducal mother. Private advices from England now intimate pretty strongly that the true motive of the imperial journey was the Emperor’s dissatisfaction with the treatment his newly married daughter, the Duchess of Edinburgh, has met with from her royal British moth-er-in-law. It is well known that Queen Victoria has always been a social martinet on questions of etiquette and precedence. She had a long battle to wage in behalf of her husband, the Prince Consort, when he first came to England. The Duke of Wellington told a curious story of the 'art which her Majesty displayed at the marriage of .the Princess Augusta of Cambridge to prevent her uncle, the King of Hanover, from signing the marriage contract before Prince Albert, as soon as the Archbishop of Canterbury handed her Majesty the pen she suddenly dodged around the table, placed herself next to her husband, signed, and handed the pen to Prince Albert before the King could prevent it. She almost quarreled, too, with LomfPhilippe on the occasion of her first royal visit to France because the Duke of Montpensier allowed a chamberlain to hand her a glass of wa ter, instead of handing it himself. It is understood now that she insisted on giving all her own daughters precedence over the Grand Duchess, it being the rule of the British Court that born pnncesses of England are to have precedence of the wives of the English pnnces, always excepting the Princess of Wales, who immediately follows the Qneen. This is a smallish matter to occupy the time of the two greatest sovereigns of Europe. But if we are not misinformed similar questions crumple the rose-leaves in the conches of the wives of republican functionaries at Washington. Lord! Lord! ! “What shadows we are and what shadows ; we pursue! ”—IF. T. World.

Alt Enemy to the Roses. A new enemy to the rose in the shape of a small black bug., about the size of the Colorado potato bug, has made its appearance in the flower gardens of Franklin and Woodford counties, which, if net checked, bids fair to destroy all the roses. Col. J. W. Tate, of this city, whose attention was first called to i ts depredations at Mrs. Hawkins’s in Woodford, a day or two since collected a number of live specimens of this vermin in a vial. From him we learn that they do their work of destruction entirely at night. Making their appearance a little after dark from no one knows where, they go at once for the rosebuds and the full and half-blown roses; bore through and through them from the sides and base, and the next morning the ground around the bush is literally covered with the blighted petals and leaves of the once beautiful roses, while not a single bug is any where to be seen—having all disappeared at daylight or before as mysteriously as they came. The live specimens in the vial generally remain very quiet until placed m the sun, when they begin to crawl and surge about as if stirred up with a long pole. Though nearly the same size with the potato bugs, they are not striped like those pests, but are generally black, with a slight, dim looking speck, or streak of gold, in the center of their backs.—Frankfort (Ky.) Yeoman. Astonishing.—Few persons are aware of the time, talent, and expense necessary to develop and perfect an invention.
