ROYALTY AT THE CHANTILLY RACES
The Emperor and Empress, with Gen. Fleury
and the Count de Monticello, and Nine. Fleu-
ry and Nine de Montebello, occupied the i'm
perial stand. The Emperor wore the grey
o~vercoat to which he has taken such a passion
for the last year; but no one who sees it and
him would ever suspect it was an imitation of
the famous grey of the "Little Corporal" His
Majesty takes off his hat, bows to his right and
left, and then moves about the stand with that
slow, measured walk, which is peculiar to him,
taking off his hat now and then to gentlemen
and ladies be recognizes. The Empress, look
ing pale, but charming as she always does,
seats herself after a bow to the crowd, and
looks wishfully and mournfully to the gay
groops of aristocratic ladies in front of the
Jockey Clubs stand, and no doubt wishes she
were a girl again, or a woman of lower degree.
1t was hard to be obliged to sit there all alone
to be gazed at, while all her friends, seated
around in groups below, were chatting with
each other, shaking hands with their acquaint-
ances, betting, a few louis dor, "just to make
it interesting" and amusing themselves gen.
orally.

A SLIGHT MIsTAKE-When Sir Isaac New

Leicester Place, his mex door neighbor was a
widow lady, who was much puzzledsby the lit
tie she observed of the habits of the philoso-

ciety called upon her one day, when, among
other domestic news, she mentioned that some
one had come to reside in the adjoining house,
who, she felt certain, was a poor mad gentle
man, 'because," she continued, che diverts
himself in the oldest way imaginable. Every
morning when the sun shines so brightly that
we are obliged to draw the window blinds, he
takes his seat before a tub of soapsuds, and &C.

through a common clay pipe, which he intent

they went up stairs, when, afterlooking through
the staircase window into the adjoining court
yard, he turned and said: "My dear madam,
the person whom you suppose to be a poor lu-
matte, is no other than the great Sir Isaac
Newton, studying the refraction of light upon
thin plates, a phenomenon which is beautiful
