The Wedding of the Princess ioaise--
PrepnratiOns for the Nuntials.

Preparations for the Nuptials.
The London Times, of February 10,
says:
Since the return of her Majesty the
Queen and the royal family to Windsor
Castle, the preparations for the puptials of
her Royal Highness Princess Louise and
the Marquis Of Lorne, have received a
considerable impetus. On Saturday, un-
der the immediate superinteudence of Mr.
w. Seabrook, her Majesty's Inspector of
Palaces, the workmen in the Lord Cham
berlain's department commenced the deco
ration of the retiring room for the royal
bridesmaids, which has been erected at
the west end of the south aisle of the
Chapel Royal of st. George.
The south and west sides of this apart
ment are formed by the Beaufort Chapel
and the memorial erected by Queen Vic
toria to the late King Leopold, and the
north and east by wooden framework
covered with drapery. The interior walls
will be richly and handsomely decorated
with choice fabrics, and ON Saturday ex-
periments were made for the purpose of
selecting the precise colors for use in the
adornment of this chamber, which, when
finished, will be richly carpeted and suit
ably furnished for the occasion from the
castle stores The retiring-room for the
royal bridesmaids is only few PAGES from
the west door or grand entrance of the ca
thedral On the morning of the royal
marriage, and previous to the ceremony,
those ladies who will have the honor of
acting as bridesmaids will assemble within
this elegant little extemporized boudoir, to
await the coming of Princess Louise.
The Albert Memorial Chapel, it appears,
is to be used as a cloak room for the illus
trious personages invited to attend the
ceremony, and who will doubtless comprise
their Royal Highnesses, the Prince and
Princess of Wales, their Royal Highnesses,
Prince and Princess Christian, of Schleswig-
Holstein, Princes Arthur and Leopold,
Princess Beatrice, the Duke of Cambridge,
Prince and Princess Teck and other mem
bers of the family of the Royal bride as
may be enabled to be present, together
with the members of the Duke of Argylls
family and those who may receive invita-
tions to be present upon the auspicious oc-
casion.

Soaring Machine Sales for 1S7O.--Tbe
magnitude to which the manufacture of sewing
machines has attained is shown by the returns
OF the manufacturers for the year 1870 to the
owners OF the leading patents, on which they
pay royalty. According to these returns
the number of machines sold by each manulac-
turer in 1870 is as follows

1t will be seen by this table, that the popu.
larity of the Singer machines far exceeds tb at
OF all others, their sale being one half greater
than that Of the famous "Wheeler & Wilson"
machine. This is owing to the fact that the
Singer Company have lately commenced max
ing, besides their old and well-established
manufacturing machine, what is known as
their "Ne,c Family Machine" which is selling
at iae rare OF Zine to one better than their old
style. Their total sales for 1869 were sc, 7S1
machines against the l27 1888 of 1870, showing
an increase of one halt in the latter year.
New York San.
Messrs Shaffer & Strong, No. 9lS Main
street, the general agents of the Singer Com.
pany for the States of Virginia and North
Carolina, have contributed very considerably
towards making up the handsome aggregate
which is shown in the above table. AS figures
never lie, it is concusively shown by this COM
parative statement that the Singer machine is
far ahead of all the other machines in favor
with the public.

cred as running the entire scale from artiti-

generally produces-who once ruled Paris
when Paris was France and France was
the world of pleasure and dissipation, has
bought building lot in Peoria, H., and is
going to settle down to quiet country
lite. The news will start reflection and
thought diyersely, according to the thinker.

PARIS ITSELF AGAIN.
Paris, Saturday night, March 5.-Paris
has resumed its ordinary appearance. To-
night the Boulevards are filled with prom
enaders. There is no fear of disturbances.
Nearly all the barricades have been re-
moved Several battalions of National
Guard proposed to restore the guns they
had removed from Place Wagram. The
authorities replied the guns would be left
under their care few days longer. Some
battalions have signed protest against the
pretended control of the Republican Com
mittee of the National Guard, which seeks
to arouse agitation.
DEFINITIvE TREATY.
Paris, March Cit is expected that as
soon as difnitive negotiations for treaty
of peace are commenced at Brussels, pro-
baby about the 10th or 10Th instant, the
government will stand ready to pay 500,-
100000 francs on account of the war in
demnty, to free Paris from the proximity
of the German troops.
A manifesto from Picard denounces the
conduct Of certain persons who pllaged
Gobelins after the departure of the Prus-
slams, and warns them that while the gov
ernment relies upon the patriotism and de-
votion of the inhabitants, Gen. ViDoy is
determined to do his duty by sternly re-
pressing violations of order.
