ENGLISH LUxUR1oUsNEss.

Few OF us whose lives are passed IN re
publican simplicity, have any definite
idea of the amount of wealth and Splen-
dor that surrounds many of the English
mobiles in their princely residences. An
intelligent American writing from Eng
land describes some of these things:
The Earl of Spencer's homestead, about
sixty miles from London, comprises ten
thousand acres, tastefully divided into
parks meadows, pastures, woods and gar
dcns. His library, called the finest prl-
vate library in the world, contains fifty
thousand volumes. Extensive and ele-
giant stables, green houses and conScrva-
tories, game keepers house, dog ken
nels. porter's lodge, and farm houses
without number, go 10 complete the es.
tablishment, Hundreds OF sheep and
cattle grazc in the parks about the house.
The Duke of Richmond's home farm,
at Goodwood, sixty miles from London,
consists Of twenty-three thousand acres,
or over thirty five square miles. And
this is in crowded England, which has a
population of 16, 100000, and an erea Of
only $4,000 square miles, or just 32, 600.
600 of acres, giving, were the land dlvi-
ded, but two acres to each inhabitant.
The residence of the Duke is a complete
palace, One extensive hall is covered
with yellow silk and pictures of the rich
est and most costly tapestry. The dishes
and plates upon the table are all of pro-
celain silver and gold. Twenty-Five race
horses stand in the stable, each being as
signed to the care of special groom.
4 Orotto near the house, the ladies spent
six wears in adorning. An aviary is sup
nlie1 with almost every variety OF rare
birds. Large herds of cattle sheep ana
deer, are spread over the immense lawns
The Duke of Devonshire's place az
Chatsworth, is said to excel IN msSnIu- nj,
cence, any other in the kingdom. Inc
income of the Duke is one million OF dol
lars wear, and he is said to spend 1t all
In the grounds about his house, are
kept four hundred head OF cattle ana
fourteen hundred deer. The kitchen
garden contains twelve acres, and is filled
with almost every species OF frult 1 anu
vegetables. A vast aboretum conneoteu
with the establishment, is designed 10
contain sample of every tree that
grows. There is also glass conserva-
tory 387 feet in length. lie in BREADTH
81 in height, covered, by 10000 square
feet of glass and warmed by seven
miles Of pipes conveying hot water. One
plant was obtained from India by special
messenger, and is valued at $4,000. One
of the fountains near the house, plays 276
feet high. said % be the highest Jet in the

changed into snow, yet this was nothing
in comparison to. the benefit which our
friends experienced from the pure air.
But we must have sentinel stationed
here, sentinel with light and a gun =
said the old pilot Il fear that our foe
will be ashamed of their having been
beaten off from their attack, and will
come upon us before we have expected,
..i Ivan and Gregory volunteered for this
duty the latter, clothed in his bear-skin,
and setting his gun close by him, imme-
dlately took his post. Ivan and the pilot
went into the cavern, Gregory had been
there almost an hour without bear show
ing himself, and he was already beginning
to think that he might almost give up all
care on account of the return of the enc
my, when he heard distant growing,
continually approaching nearer and near
er. He Immediately mentioned what he
heard. The friends hurried out and
looked through the opening, but perceiy-
as yet no enemy on the clear, shining
snow. You remember that not far from
the hut, there was an opening in the
rock which formed an entrance into the
valley. The enemy could approach only
on this side.' And in truth, soon huge
white bear showed himself at the corner
of the rock, accompanied by half.a-dozen
others, which under his lead, made di-
rectly for the hut.
The trench was no hindrance to them,
it was full of snow, and this was covered
with thick crust of ice.
The besieging army came right forward,
and probably the blood, or, as it is termed
in the language of hunters, the sweat of
their dead comrade, was the reason why
the bears were yet more furious and Ylo-
lent than in their first attack
But one of them distinguished himself
by his savage efforts. No glowing, his
sing. and ire-sprinkling squibs frightened
him whenever such fire. brand struck
him he became so much the more furious;
growing and grating his teeth he put up
his paws over his snout, and renewed his
assaults with increased rage. In vain
Ivan and Gregory shot at him, he minded
no ball his attacks were the more vio-
lent, and continually harder to resist; he
smelt his dead comrade in the hut, and
put out all the strength at his command
anew, and crash l-he all at once dashed
in the door, and the unwelcome guest was
inside.
You can easily imagine that our friends
were not very well pleased. 1t was now
fight for life or death. With bayonets
they received the guest which had
crowded himself upon them, and which
reared himself up wrathfully, and spread
out wide his great shaggy paws to grasp
one of our friends, or possibly three of
them, but suddenly stumbled over his
dead comrade. Before he could get up
again. tho watchful old pilot placed the
muzzle of the gun at his ear, fired, and
the furious monster lay wallowing in his
own blood. At the same moment Ivan
aud Gregory's bayonets were buried in
the cnemy's breast, until they became
convinced that he WAS dead. The 9TH
ers stood at distance to wait the result.
Some squibs launched among them'
showed them the back track, which they
indeed. took unwilIingly. but in great
haste and it was matter of much JOY
to our friends to be so soon rid of them.

ment to his abilities to say thai he cannot do
every thing. There are few BooTHs IN public
life who can do Sir Giles and Jerry Sneak in
the same evening with the same success. We
do well what we do confidently, and we do
confidently what we have done often. DIR.
GwIN failed signally in his new part The
novelty of his position, perhaps, embarrassed
him. In his long speech he involved himself
in labyrinth Of false facts, false logic, false
figures, and false conclusions; so hopelessly and
80 ridiculously, that, if he escape, it will be
with pentential resolution never to play
economist again.
1t is enough to say that in his general and in
his particulars, in his details and his entire,
MIR. GwIN was utterly at fault; and if the pub
lie will only suspend their judgment day or
two they will have the refutation of all his ma
terial ayerments on the floor of the Senate.
This would have been accomplished some days
since, but for an understanding among the
Senators that the amendments to the Deficien,
cy bill were to be disposed of before the gene
raj debate were resumed. When this time shall
come Mr. HUNTER and Mr.. GwIk will meet
with due attention; and we will venture to af
firm that neither of these gentlemen will again
undertake to draw comparison between the
economy of this WING Administration and of
its predecessors.

Death of General Van Rensselaer,.

The Albany Register announces the death
of General SOLOMON VAN RENSSELAER,. which
event took place at his residence, near Albany.
New York, in the seventy eighth year of his
age. General VAN RENSSELAER, greatly dislin-
gulshed himself in the battle of Queenstown
In which he fell riddled with bullet wounds-as
well as in other military engagements. He
was formerly Representative in Congress,
and subsequently was appointed postmaster of
the city OF Albany, position which he filled
with credit for some years, but from which he
was subsequently removed by President VAN
buren,. In 1889 (says the Register he was
the Albany district delegate to the Wing Ma
tlonal Convention at Harrisburg, Pa, and was
one of the delegates from the State of New
York who cast his vote for his old companion
In arms, General HARRIsoS He had the SAL
lsfacton to see that gallant soldier and pure
statesman nominated for and elected to the Pre-
sldency, and from him received again the an
Polntment of postmaster Of this city, which he
held until removed by TYLER Since that time
he has not been in public life, and has resided
with his family at Cherry Hill.
