QUEEN VICTORIA AS WORKING WOMAN.-A
correspondent of the Boston Journal speaking of
Queen Victoria. says: "As q sovereign she is the
hardest.worked woman in England. Her official
duties commence at O'Clock in the morning. one
hour before breakfast. Wherever she is, dis.
patches are sent daily in by messengers. who ride
in first class cars bearing what are called baskets.
The papers from all the departments are submit.
ted TO her. These baskets are dark morocco
boxes about one foot in length. These are sent
from Downing street. the admiralty, the home de.
psrtment, the head of the army, etc. Each bas-
ket is locked by the minister who sends il. A
card hanging from the inside contains the name of
the minister. Every train to Windsor, Balmoral
and Osborne carries messengers with these boxes.
The queen and the minister alone can unlock
them. All these documents have to be read by
her, for she signs nothing which she does not read
Every bill, act, treaty, document petition or
paper requiring her name, are subject to her per.
sonal attention. Her majesty is admitted to be
one OF the best business women in the kingdom.
Each days business is finished before the day
closes; Usually The Wessengsr ysits and takes
minister from whom il came. The queen holds a
ready pen and carries on her personal correspond.
ence, which is very large. She pays her own
postage like any lady in the land. She has al
ways given personal attention to her children and
their religious training has been the object of
much solicitude and care. Her favorite pastime
at Bslmoral is among the poor, the lowly, and the
sick, with whom she talks reads, prays and leaves
medicines, food, money and little tokens of her
regard"

The happy family of Virginia Radicals have
fallen out The nomination of Wells excited
bitter opposition, and some of the boilers
formed a new State ticket. G. @. Walker is
the nominee for governor, John F. Lewis of
Rockingham, for lieutenant governor, and J.
@. Taylor of Montgomery, for attorney gen.
eral. 1t seems to be fight between carpet
baggers and scalawags. As usual the carpet
baggers got the best of their opponents, but
the appetite of scalawaggery was too sharp to
be appeased by empty promises. Hence the

The OPELoUsAs RALRoAD.--A new phase
has recently been given to this suit. Our
readers will remember that Messrs Tucker and
Conant applied to the United States District
Court to declare the company bankrupt.
The case was argued, and is now before
Judge Duren. But a few days ago. Mr.. W.
S. Pike petitioned the court to set aside the
claims of Messrs. Tucker and Conant, alleg-
ing that he, q large coupon and bondholder,
and creditor of the company, is willing to
satisfy in full any claims that Messrs. Tucker
and Conant may have against the company.
During the progress of the trial, our readers
will remember similar offer was made by the
road, but was decided by Judge Duren as not
TO be sufficient to stop proceedings. But it is
contended that the offer from a creditor is
another thing, and should be accepted by the
suing debtors. The petition of Mr.. Pike is
now before Judge Durell.

The A0d Bridal.

What would you do, nv dear one said
What would you do if were dead?
If Death should humble, as he list,
These red lips which now you kist
What would my love do were | wed
To that CHASTITY groom instead;
If DER me, in the chancel, Death
Should cast his amaranthine wreath
Before my eyes, with fingers pale,
Draw down the mouldy bridal veil!
All no no! it cannot be
Death would spare their light, and fee,
And leave my love to Life and me
