The latest Partisan invention in the
way Of adding from the resources of art to
the attraction which nature has bestowed
upon the fair portion of the human race, is
false eye lashes.
A phrenologist has been examining
Queen Victoria's head He says be found
the bump of adhesiveness sadly deficient, if
it existed at all In justice, however, to
this gentleman, we will state that the
queens head under examination was post
age stamp.
Among the Emperor's Improvements in
Paris is the levelling of the Hill Of the
Troca ers The ground is mined, and four
mines are sprung at once by an electrical
battery. About two acres are raised at
each explosion, and the cars are ready on
temporary railway to carry off the earth
thus loosened.
"A correspondent writing from Paris
gives the following: "We learn from an
authentic source that Napoleon the Third,
when talking few days ago with some Of
his deputies, Informed them that he was
going to make last attempt in order to re-
gain the natural fgontierss-ofs France, and
that when this was accomplished, he would
sabdicate, hand the reins Of COVE nment to
his son, and restore liberty to France"
"A London paper says: 9. In a large
glass case, standing in one Of the upper
chambers Of our great national museum, is
to be seen the skeleton, deeently encased in
it's original burial clothes, Of one Pharaoh
Mykerinus, surrounded by fragments Of the
coffin, wherein the name Of its occupant can
be easily read By the Psychologists of the

evidence that it contained the mummy of a
king who was reigning in Egypt more than

asked her to lend him 'triiing amount of
two or three hundred dollars out of her own
purse This delicate insinuation the dear
little Carlotta' listened to with great good
humor, and then, patting Max on the cheek,
said, "No you DON'T and she did not lend
it to him. Then Max, taking umbrage, and

little piece of scandal is going the rounds,
and for effect, as we can plainly see." 9
"A London letter says: "Nobody here
cares anything about the threatened Euro
pean war, except the Princess Mary of
Cambridge and Prince Teck, whose ap-
preaching marriage is the great sensation.
He is an Austrian nobleman, commands
regiment in his Emperor's army, and en-
the outbreak of hostilities may at once be
ordered to join his corps. The Princess is
very naturally anxious. She has long been
in the market She has already lost Victor
Emanuel, the Marquis Of Hastings, and
other nobilities. She grows stouter and
stouter every year, and has not like other
ladies, the privilege Of coDcealing her age.
That is inscribed on every blue book, and
red book and directory in the kingdom.
Even the Shilling Peerage,' and the An
