THE QUEEN AT TIE OPERA.-A letter from
London to the N. Y. Express, says Of Queen
Victorias visit to the Covenent Garden Opera,
at the performance of Mr.. Wallaces NaritanG:
"On the entrance of Her Majesty there was
no demonstration on the part OF the audience or
the artists She was quite plainly dressed, in
modestly low neck and short sleeves, with a
couple of pink roses in her hair; and she took
her seat more quietly than most ladies of fash
ion, who enter the opera house in blaze of
jewelry OF jimcrackery. Prince Albert was
seated on the right, and next him the three
Maids of Honor filled the remaining front seats.
The Queen and the Prince both seemed to
take lively interest in the performance, fol-
lowing the singers through the librettO; but, at
the same time, scanning, not only the artists,
but the occupants of the boxes, pretty closely
through their lorgnottes. When the Prince
chatted and laughed with the honorable but by
no means dangerously beautiful, maid who sat
beside him, his a0Js invariably leaned toward
them, to catch the joke and join in the laugh
Victoria is, beyond all question, model wife
and mother, as we'll as most virtuous and grn-
cious Queen. Her subjects love her so well,
that no radical or republican wit darcs to cnri
cature or satirze her. Quite different is it with
Prince Albert, who is often Punched, when the
dear little Queen says in her wife like affection

Mns SrowE's idea of Aaron Burr doesn't
strike the editor of the Taunton (hIass.) Gazette
Is particularly happy, We quite agree with
the Dean. Whatever else he might have been,
Burr was no rnilksop. His eloquencc moreover
was much too subtle to be put down in print,
like the fine phrases of the LOthariOs that figure
in romances. But hear the DEAN
"In The Minister'S wooing,' Aaron Burr is
introduced as one who is about to play part
in the story. This is bold proceeding in more
senses than one; for apart from that which makes
him most spoken Of he is out of the range of
Mrs. Stoves tuition or her intuition. This is
evident from the conversation that she draws
from him. which is not above the average pha-
ses of common carpetknight; in fact SO far,
she has made his speech mere mush Of cant
and compliments. Can any one accept this as
the method of Burr? His mind was one of the
most perfect and polished, as it was one of the
hardest of gems; and where its full fire fell it
,lazzled if it did not blind. The power of gal
iantry as Burr welded it, is bequeathed to no
school, survives in no formula"

1t is said that chickens ofa new breed called
"Ecliptendean" are being introduced into this

with fine hair like that of lap dogs, very

Superintendent Beae has written letter to
the Secretary of War, in which he saws that

and that they can carry twice the weight
which mules can.
The German piano-forte makers of New

discussion, the particular subject being the
propriety of organizing Central Committee

of a similar movement in New York for the
establishment of nine hours system of labor.
The matter is to be further investigated at an
other meeting soon to be held.

The Daily Spy. at Worcester, docs not like
the squealing of Mr. Buffers pigs, and winds
up by denying that the Republicans maintain
the ''irrepressible conflict" doctrine. But the
Spy is not in correspondence with Mr. Sew
ard'-Bestan Post, Oct. ii.
This is the only remark the Post has ven
tured in regard to Mr.. Buffers pigs; and we
suspect that Democrats generally will be
as shy of them as the Post itself The
honorable gentleman evidently believed that
he could hide in that herd of swine the whole
legion ofproslavery devils by which his nsit n:s.rty
is torn and afflicted. But he is aenoyce at
such work he bungled it. ~
AS to the "lrrepresSSii6lc conflict doctrine" it
is evident that tahs'Post dare not show its read
ers Nir. Sp,eSSsard's own statement of that doc
.es. One of the strongest testimonies to the
truthfulness of his statement is found in the
universal disposition of the Democrats to
dodge the issue he actually presented, and mis-
represent what he said.

For the Worcester Daily snr-

WEST WARREN, Oct, 1909.
Mr.. Editor Allow me to say in your paper
that Rev. Thomas II. Jones, formerly a slave
at the South, and fugitive, delivered lee
ture in this village, few evenings since: on
the sin of slavery, advocating the blessings
of freedom to all. 1t is but justice to say
that Brother Jones gave great satisfaction to
the intelligent audience who were held in
rapt attention for nearly two hours by his
eloquence and earnest appeal in behalf of free
dom. He exhibited "the bells, an instrument
of torture worthy of the Inqusition, and also
the iron collar and chains. He seems to un-
derstand the evil of slavery well, and the
cause of freedom he advocates in a spirit of
love to all, without rant or fanaticism. l be.
lieve him calculated to do much good in the
cause of freedom. l hope the public, wherev-
er he may lecture, will do themselves the fa-
vor of hearing him. He is an able lecturer on
the subject of slavery, and can be found in
Worcester, where he resides at present.

1t is understood that of the twenty-one dele
gates chosen at Worcester last evening to at
tend the Fourth Councillor Convention to be
held at Athol next Tuesday, the delegation
stands twenty for Hon. A. l.. Rogers the pres
ent incumbent, and one against.-BoSton Jour
nal, Oct. IA.
The Journals informant is mistaken. The
meeting did not intend to elect such delega-
tion as that here described. But, if it were
otherwise, if delegation almost wholly in ia
vor of Mr.. Rogers had been chosen, they
would hardly venture to vote for him at Athol
as representatives of the Republican party of
Worcester. In this city, the desire to have a
new candidate is universal. 1t is prevalent in
all sections of the party and the Republicans
here will be misrepresented by any delegate
who does not express and sustain this desire in
the convention. This is so clear and so well
understood, that no man chosen to act as rep
resentative of the party can very safely dis
regard it. Our Worcester Republicans are not
always so well agreed as they are now in re-
gard to this matter of the Councillorship.
Therefore, such delegation from Worcester
as the Journal describes, could not be chosen
by fair means. If men have been been chosen
with the expectation that they will misrepre-
sent the party, it will not be amiss for them
to consider the matter very carefully and con-
suit their most judicious friends, before pro-
ceedlng to realize that expectation.

for the american Party" while Mr.. Cobb
was chairman of the State Central Committee,

is that the defendant did not engage the print
ing any more than any of the others, and that
the plaintiff has received his pay out of Il fund
contributed by A. A. Lawrence. The plain
tiff replies that that money was devoted to the
purpose of attempting to stife the seeds of
death in the Patriot newspaper though its dis
solution followed soon after.-Boston Journal
