SACRAMENTO SPORT. AS if to imi-
tate the Spainiards' method of obtaining
amusement, over 1900 persons recently
assembled within an amphitheatre in
Sacramento to witness a fight between an
immense grizzly bear, weighing 1000
pounds, and an untamed Spanish bull
ghe bear--a huge misshapen creature
was chained by his leg to post in the
centre of the ring. The bull was then
let out, but the animals seemed to have
more consideration for each other than
the brutes who looked on, inasmuch as
they evidently had no hostile intentions
lie made one plunge at the bear, and
was caught by the latter tightly around
the neck, who held him a few minutes,
when he disengaged himself, and they
separated, gazing at each other compla-
Gently. Every method was adopted to
make the animals fight; but none with
success.
Missiles were thrown, lighted punches
of fre-crackcrs placed in close relation
ship to their faces, but the JrHes resolute-
ly refused to mangle and tear to pieces
each other for the purpose of edifying a
crowd of amusement seekers. The audi
ence finally remunerated themselves for
the outlay necessary for admission by
killing the animals themselves. The
manager of the affair would have disap-
pointed no one if he had simply an
nounccd that there would be a fight be-
tween blood-thirsty brutcs, without spe-
cifying the species of the animals who
were to participate therein.
A PATHETIC SCENE. The Milwakie
American publishes the following Incl
dent:
The wife of one of our sailors on tho
recent wreck was upon the deck with al
infant only three weeks old in her arms
to learn if her husband was alive o.
drowned. She was in a state bordering
on frenzy.
On being told that he was dead, sht
gave one long sob of agony; while tn,
blue eyes of the babe were turned smiling
ly to her face, she cried in accents o
most heart-thrilling dispair, 80! is h,
gone, am | alone, is he dead-drowned
is my man gone, and will he never com,
to meW
In this state she returned to her desc
hate home, no one venturcd to offer word
of sympathy. The light and warmth o
this poor woman's life had gone out for
ever. All through the long hours she
sat weeping and rocking to and fro, ant
pressing her child to her heart, for it was
i'll, till midnight. Then she heard {
feeble step and knock at the door; she
said, "Who's there? p "It's l." the
familiar voice replied. She gave a scream
of JOY and admitted her husband.
Nothing could exceed the woman's
frantic delight. She threw herself upon
the floor and wept, and chung to her hus.
hands neck and laughed till the tears
came again Such a happy reunion was
foretaste of heaven.
Love like this can but be repaid with
lifetime of devotion.
The sailor, it seems, had left the
wreck and at the imminent peril of his
life reached the shore and had walked
twenty miles ere he reached his home.

who may die intestated in any part of her

who may die intestated in any part of hel
empire.
Another necessary expense for keeping uI
the "honor and dignity of the crown is the
income bestowed upon Prince Albert, the
Queens husband. This was fixed by Parlia-
ment at S150,OO0 yearly, and Her Majesty
has heaped lucrative appointments which near
Iy doubles the amount. And there is a fur
ther sum of $550O0O for certain dukes, duch-
esses, &c.
The Queen also has the free use of various
palaces, which are kept in repair at the public
expenses. The cost is by no means small the
appropriation for 1856 for palaces, parks, gar
dens, &c, being SPAS, ,465. Add this to the
actual income Of the Queen and Prince Albert,
and they will be found to receive as much as
$5,898,466 every year, simply for personal
and domestic expenditure and hoardings.-
Whenever the Queen travels by land, the tolls
at the turnpikes are remitted and the Admir-
al ty keep steam yacht and provide her ia
bic when she takes an excursion upon the
water.
In 1912 Sir Robert Peel announced that
Victoria had most graciously' determined to
submit her income to the income tax" but
there is no record Of her having done so ;;
when the Secretary of the Liverpool Associa-
ton wrote to the Treasury Department max
ing inquiries on the subject, the reply was
short and sharp-that they did not answer
such questions, and that such information was
to be obtained only through Parliament. The
sum which the Queen would have had to pay
during the recent war would have been $780,
900.
We should think that such facts as these
would make the English people rather ner-
vous, and that they would be led to enquire
whether they are not paying little too dear
for the royal whistle. 1t is said to be the last
leather that breaks the camel's back. There
IS rumor current in England that the Queen
is about to apply to Parliament for marriage
lowry of $350,O00 for the Princess Royal, al
young miss of sixteen, who is said to be en-
gagged to the crown Prince Of Prussia. Per-
haps this application, if made, may lead the
public to count the cost Of royalty.
The Evansville daily journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ia. [i.e. Ind.]) 1848-1862, 1856-10-31
Tha Cost of Royalty.

We find the following in reference to the
expenses and support of royalty, in late
number of the Boston Journal:
There exists in Liverpool, England, So
ciety of merchants called the Financial Re-
form Association, who make it their business
to watch the expenditures OF the realm OF
Great Britain, and to note and expose eXtTaVa-
gance or corruption in the use of the public
revenues. The Association has from time to
time published tracts in which the lavish
waste of money by government has been
shown up and retrenchment and reform loudly
called for. The society has recently issued a
pamphlet with the Ironical title Of ''The Royal
Household, Model to Parliament and the
Nation" in which the enormous expenses OF
sthe Royal family of England are set down for
Il the thoughtful to ponder on. From this tract
it appears that upon her accession to the throne
tthe Queen had the pleasure of giving her
eoihcat sanction to an act of Parliament set
egllng E385OOO a year-nearly $4,000, ,OOO-
upon herself for life. This was $4,000 more
than asallowed her predecessor, William ".
At the same time the allowance of the
Queens mother was increased from $4,000
to S150O00. Although the people grumoled
at this extravaganza, few members of Parlia-
ment dared to lift their voices against 1T. In
the House of Lords, Lord Brougham boldly
opposed the grant as excessive. All who
spoke against the measure were roundly
abused.
The statute which granted 100000 per
annum to the Queen, with $4,000 per annum
additional "for home secret services" provided
for the particular application of the money as
follows: l. For Her Majesty's private purse
100000; 2. For salaries of her household
$626,0Oo; 8. Expenses of the household
that is what Paddy would call "the best eat
ing and drinking 500; f. Royal boun-
ty aims, and special services, $4,000; 5. Pen
sions to the extent of $6OO0 6. Unappro-
priated moneys, $4,000. Although it was
stipulated in the act that the Queen should
surrender for her lifetime hereditary revenues
which her immediate predecessors had been
possessed Of yet except the duties on beer
ale, and cider, there was no REIMBURSEMENT o.
these hereditary revenues and she now draws
from the civil list of Ireland, Scotland, anc
Duchy of Lancaster. etc.. the modest sum Of
$1,4l5, ,OO0 in addition to the sum of $2,425,
700 voted her by Parliament, making the an
'nual income of So, 34O,000i Besides this tn
Queen is heir to all persons without legal heir
