An Imperial Mystery-why Eugenie
Went to England.

From the New York POstt
The journey to the East is not the first
foreign excursion which the Empress
Eugenie has undertaken alone. About
nine years ago l. ,ndon learned one
morning, with much surprise, that the
Empress was guest at Claridge's Hotel,
an inn which has sheltered almost as
many crowned heads, in veal or woe, as
the famous "L)r Warden" at Dover,
where DE-. Smith," better known as
Louis Philippe d'0rlesns, was hospita e.
bly, welcomed when he retired from the
Tuileries to make way for a new oeeu-
pant of that place.
OF course the sudden and totally IN
expected arrival of an empress-and
such an empress-set the tongues OF all
the Quid nuncs IN Clubland actively wsg-
giug. And much the wonder grew,
when runner got abroad that on Clar-
idre's little bill-probably only mere
trifls Of some $500 3 day-being pre-
sented for payment, a member OF the
Enpresa's very small suite, -ho repaired
to the Emperor's London banker, Messrs.
CSutts 4 Co., for some cash, received
instead a polite iotimation from that
eminent firm, 10 the effect that Il bad not
yet been advised By is imperial client TO
place any funds 10 her Msjesiy's order.

By order Of the Common Pleas Court,
Sheriff Weber, acting as receiver, sold
yesterday the entire effects of DR.. James
L. Thsyer's circus, including horses,
wagons, wild animals, etc. The sale
took place at the stable so much patron
lied by circuses and menageres on
Ninth street, near Sycamore.
Az o'clock pm, a crowd OF two or
three hundred persons had assembled,
and the Sheriff commenced his work.
Ten performing horses were first offered,
and sold at prices aversg ng about one
hundred and fifty dollars each. Mr..
Adam Forepsugh became the purchaser
of the trick pony Doctor, paying for
him the handsome sum of nine hundred
and thirty dollars. An elephant, small
a size, but dignifed in appearance, was
next led forth, and i'm mediately became
the observed of ell observers Bidders
seemed to be very shy about making
offers, however, and finally bis dininu-
tive msiesty was knocked down to Mr..
Forepsugh for $l275. An old Snowman,
who was present in the crowd, remarked
that "that there little enimule ought to
have fetched S6000," and walked Oft, in
dignant at the sacrifice.
Four fiery and untamed lions were
next offered, and, after some lively bid
ding, were awarded to Oscar b. Norman
at $4,000 The "kines of the forest" did
not seem to be much effected by the
novel process OF being knocked down
to the highest bidder, of course-and
blinked lszily at the crowd through the
iron bars of their cage. A few timid
persons inquired if the cage was per
fecty secure, and looked fearfully upon
the tswpy beasts, whose massive jaws
and powerful limbs seemed waiting only
for the opportunity to burst forth. wild
with resistless rags and fury. Mr.. Fore
paugh and Mr.. Norman we're the princi-
pal purchasers, the former investing
$4200, and the latter S9055. The sales
will foot up to about $4,000.

ture Some declared that there had
been fracas between the imperial couple
in regard to the Roman policy of France;
a subject upon which the Empress is
known to feel strongly; while others,
who perhaps had not escaped painful
personal experience in matters matri-
monial, averred that the Emperor had,
just like Brown, Jones and Robinson in
humble life, found the presence of his
exemplary mother.in-law, the Countess
Montijo, too trying for bis nervous sys.
tenn, and that the daughter had taken Of
tense at the slight put upon the mother.
A visit of the Empress to Scotland
gave strength to the story that she had
come to consult the celebrated physician,
Sir James Simpson, of E1inburg, who, it
was alleged, on being requested to 60 to
Paris, had declined, saying that he could
not leave thousand patients for one,
albeit that one was an empress and
therefore, as the mountain wouldn't 90

mountain. & l.l
But this explanation was never we'll
substaniiated, and to this hour the real
cause and object, if any, of this incognito
visit remains to be explained.

The Mill which Didn't Come OF.


From the Cincinnati Commercial, 10TH
About the saloons and ssmple-rooms
yesterday might have been seen crowds
of disappointed sports" all bewsiling
and cursing the obstinscy and bad man
agement which had swindled them out of
q p easurabe fight. They had built up
hopes of being able to see McCoole and
Allen vigorously punching each other s
heads in twenty four foot ring by twelve
o'clock to-day. but the rich treat had
been denied them, aud the grand affair
had terminated in fat and dishonorable
fzzle. The most disappointed men were
the newspaper reporters, who had hocked
here from the East and West, in the strict
line of their duty, and who were thor
oughly disgusted because they had been
cheated out of big sensation. They
drank moderately and mingled few
curses with those which showersd upon
the head of the McCoole party from every
saloon aud place of resort in the town.
No effort was made yesterday to bring
about meeting between the fstic cham
pions, because it was plain to be seen that
McCoole and his obstinate friends did
mean business, and did not come here to
fight. There was come talk about hav-
ing Allen issue another challenge to
McCooIe to fight for $1,000 a side 10
three days, but it didn't amount to any
thing, because everybody felt that
McCoole wouldn't fight, even though that
amount of money were paid to him in
cash.
Ia the afternoon poor, disappointed
Tom Allen came up from the Buckeye
House and mingled about town with his
friends. Everybody sympathized with
him in his bereavement, for the brave fell
low, so full of fight, seemed to feel as
though he had been robbed of victory
as well as handsome purse of money.
After having been so badly treated in his
St. Louis mills, it was too bad that he
should be deprived of the pleasure OF
meeting his old rival in a fair field, and
settling the question of muscular PROV
ess. So thought the crowd of his admir-
ers, and Toms appearance was the signal
for renewed denuncistion. THE big
lnafer won't fight" said the despondent
Thomas, and there was no diversity of
opinion concerning the cowardice of
McCoole and his hackers.
This last dishenorable act ends the
fighting career of McCoole in the opin-
ion of all the ringites. To-day the vex-
atious stakes will be withdrawn, the busi-
ness at the Buckeye" and at "Shady's"
will cease, the fighters and drinkers and
disciples of fstiana will fold their tents
aud steal away, and the big sensation OF
the hour will be buried and soon forgot

OS Friday evening of last week, the Territo- rial and county officials of Prescott united with the leading business men of the town, and gave a supper to Governor Saford, the U. s.
