must i've, we offer a few hints upon
the readiest methods of gratifying the

upon throwing open their coats to catch

The ladies are such thorough experts
IN this art that we need not offer them
any suggestion, but by abandoning
their cloaks and rubbers and resortint,

Pnrnine Europe.

The New York World is coIlating
facts to show that great famine in
Europe is at hand, and the question is
asked, whence are to come the supplies
10 meet the pressing demand for bread
stuffs that win be made upon us of the
United States. The editor saws:
The wheat crop of Great Britain in
1886, IKE that in 1865, was short, and ac-
cordlng 10 the latest calculation, 81 600
wv bushels Will have TO be imported 10
supply the average consumption until
the harvest of 1867. This would uatur-
ally come from the Continent and the
United States, but from It's latter little
can be expected save from California,
ana OF the whole Continents none has
any surplus bat Russia. The stock OF
wheat now in store in the principal
markets In this country is, in round
numbers, 1900, 900 bushels, which
IN about two-Lhirds OF the quantity
IN store at this time last year,
and il is not accommodating. Il
is further estimated that the total sup
ply of wheat at the grain markets OF
the world taxing into account the re-
duced qnSntity remaining from 1855.
and the shorI crop OF 1850, is but two
thirds OF The ayeSage supply OF previ-
Gus years. AS regards other grains, the

adorned. Over her Mary Stuart cap is the
demi crown, while the Koh-i-noor and one rlcn
jewelled cross, presented by Prince Albert
form her only ornaments To complete the
portrait, she gave the artist many and long
sittines. 1t is said that in fidelity of portrait
ure the likeness is not to be surpassed, and the
Queen has expressed her unqualified approval
of II.
The portrait is done in enamel, on panel Of
pure gold. Enamel paintings, TO bring out all
the bfilliancy OF their colers, have to be burnt
in furnace at least five, and generally six
times. The heat to which they are subjected Is
so intense as to be only short of that which
would fuse gold. The most exquisite care Is
necessary neither to let the picture heat too
soon, nor, above all, cool too rapidly as in
either case the enamel would crack. SO large
an enamel portrait was never before attempted
in England. 1t was, therefore, found necessary
to build a small heating furnace specially for
the execution of this work. The burning was
successfully performed, and the result is the
most exquisite enamel painting ever seen.
The picture is mounted in most elaborate
and massive chased frame of pure gold, sur
mounted with the royal crown enamelled onlthe
same metal in colors.
1t is Mr.. Peabody's intention to exhibit It
publicly here and in the Provinces, one.half of
the proceeds being destined to 60 TO the South
