A THRONE TO BE PURoHAsED WITH GOLD.
The Florence correspondent Of the Provi-
dence Journal says that the story is still
current in Florence, and is more and more
credited that the Grand Ducal family is go'
ing to attempt to buy its way back to the
Tuscan throne with gold. They are coin
ing at Paris million of dollars in gold,
with the head of the young Ferdinand Nv as
Duke. After the Congress, which is to de-
eide in his favor this money is to be scatter
cd among the Tusoans, and with it oblivion
of all past sins IS to be purchased. The
family Of Lorraine is rich enough to spend
such sum for the coYeted power, but it is
quite too late to think to buy the loyalty Of
a people which has been thrice deceived.
