ace here. The inventory OF its contents Is now
finished, and visitors are admitted special

apartments not usually open to the public, aud to
inspect the place with leisurey ninuteness not
allowed TO every stranger.
Nothing struck me SO forcibly as the order and
tdiness OF everything l cav. Were the queen to
come back tomorrow she would scarcely miss
any of her household gods. There is still her half
used bottle OF eau de cologne; the pen Ia her hus
bands iDkstand, with the ink hardly dry on the
nib; the doll her youngest girl had in her hand
when the last toys were laid on the shelf, as the
nursery was set in order, and every thing made
ready for start to La Granja. The man who
showed rs about was an old servant of the house
born IN II, probably, but at all events as full OF it
and of its Inhabitants as If no change had happen

hung. The duke may come to- morrow and make
himself at home there, but he will have TO remove
those mute tokens Of the very strong affection the
poor infatuated queen TO the last bore her sister,
and of the regard she showed her sisters husband
and his family for her sisters sake.
However, all my instincts of domestic rever-
ence, and my utmost power OF ASSOCIATION Of
ideas, could not induce me TO bestow more than
passing thought on the possible future destinies
OF the Bourbon dynasty of either branch. "a
plague on both your houses" was my upDermost

lions, drawings and pictures, of the queen and her
family, were multiplied, with almost sickening
variety. Alas, for the iron rules OF phrenology
and physiognomy A man who ever surveyed
that collection will be reconciled TO his looking
glass to the end Of his lifetime. The queen her
self s-what she is; but there Is no doubt she has
all the beauty, the sense. and the valor Of the
House. II is a great wonder that Isabella III
should have occupied the throne for fve.and.

Lafayette and Carondelet streets, appearing to
originate somewhere IN the rear portion of it,
The place il owned by Mr. Beebeck, of Carroll
ton, and by HIM is leased 10 Herman Poland, who
occupies the corner az the New Cotton Plant cot
feehouse, and as a grocery adjoining it. The re-
mainder Of the building is nbleased to gun aud
locksmith named Henry Kuuz. The roof was
entirely destroyed by the fire, and the stock of
groceries badly damaged by water while Mr..
kuDzs whose stock was insured in the Merchants
Mutual Insurance Company for $1,000, sustained
loss tbereupoD Of about $500. The building was
insured in the GermsDis Office for $500, while Mr.
Poland holds policies in the Home Mutual office
TO the amount OF $1,000 On his stock OF groceries,
and $1,000 on his bar room.
The above facts we gather from the report of
Special Officer White, who, under the regulations
mentioned few days since, has been appointed
to superintend the police at any fires that occur
and 10 make report of the same. Capt White
expresses his conviction that the building was set
on fire by some inoeDdiary. -- -
