commended by distinguished citizens of
the Cnitcd States, and being also we'll
educated, and of good address, called
upon the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
and told him that i would not apply ill
;hc usual way by note to have Captain
Chester, u colorcd American citizen, pre-
scnted to his Imperial Majesty, as there
was no precedent, and / did not know
how his Imperial Majesty would be dis
posed to nct, but i desired that he would
approach his Imperial Majesty iu an in
formal way, and ascertain his wishes in
this regard The Assistant Minister OF
Foreign A!fairs, Mr. De Westmanu, ac-
quicsced in the proposal, and in few
days wrote me that the Emperor had
given orders to have Captain Chcstcr's 's
name put upon the list for tho first pre-.
scntation. To-day, being the occasion of
Il grand review Of the Imperial Guard
the Emperor sent an invitation to Cap
tain Chester to assist in the review,
which he did, riding around with his
Imperial Majc>tys staff, and taking
lunch at the winter palace with the staff
officers, and portion of the Imperial
famil.;, who accompanied the Emperor
ut the lunch.

In secluded spot in Hollywood, not
far from the banks Of the river, is the
grave Of n young woman, ut the head of
which is neat marble slab, on which is
inscribed the name Of the deceased and
three verses of the beautiful hymn Com.
mencing with the liue "AsIeep in Jesus"
1t has an interesting history: One day
during the war physician was sent for
to 10 house of ,ill-fane to see one of its
inmates. He found pretty young wo-
man sick, with slight disease, but labor
ing under that terrible ,nalady consump-
tion After the doctor had prescribed
| for .iher she manifested desire to talk,
and seemed anxious to disclose to him
her history. He gratitied her, and she
told him she came County, in
the interior Of tie State. She had loved,
not wisely, but too well, Was betrayed,
and then abandoned by the man to
whom she gave the last proof of her af
fiction.
Overwhelmed with shame and remorse
she came to Richmond, and entered ono
of those houses Which very few, once
having entered, ever leave but for the
grave. Her health was failing; she ar.
dentlJ longcd to leave the life she wa.
following, and appealed to the doctor tc
try to find her home elsewhere. She
was willing to do the most mcnial worl
if she could get a home with rcspectabl,
people; to 60 anywhere, or do anything
to be- taken away from the companion
and scenes of the life she was leading
The doctor was interested in her, ant
with that true bencyolcnce which charc
tcrizes the profession, cxerted himself t,
comply with her request. He relate,
the circumstances to professional bro

her home with a Toor widow lady, ii
he suburbs Of the city, upon the copdi
tion that when she was able she was t
assist in thc-Mork uf the llousehold, an,
when she WAS not, that the doctors wer
to pay her board.
She went to her new home, grateful
and almost happy. She worked whe
she could, but was almost always sick
After having been with the widow lad
a month or two, she proiesscd conversion
Her health steadily declined, and on
day when the doctor went to see her, sh
said to him: Doctor. / know hav
