An ECCENTRIC LADY.-Just ten years ago,
there passed away from society, almost unno-
ticed, Il Scottish lady who had made no little
noise in her time. We allude to the beautiful
Lady Charlotte c., daughter of the duke of
A. In 1896 she married her namesake,
"Handsome Jack c., of the Guards, AT that
time the bride was perhaps unequaled for her
beauty, and she was not shy of showing it. In
deed, after Lady Charlotte first went to court as
a wife, Queen Charlotte sent her word that if she
ever come there again she must first take a tuck
or two out of her skirts. In Glasgow crowds
used to follow this audacious beauty; and no
wonder, for local historians say she would walk
down the most fashionable street in pettcOats
almost as short as Il Highlander's kilt. On one
occasion, when thus lightly attrcd, and walk
ing with lady and young gentleman, the
whole city seemed to gather about them, Won
dering, admiring and criticisng. Finding
themselves mobbed, they took shelter in Il shop,
whose owner, further TO protect them, put up
shutters and locked his door. Instead of dis
persing, the mob increased. The shop keeper,
fearing an attack on his premises, by which
bis goods and his guests would alike suffer-
jumped out of a back window and ran for
the guard. A sergeant and three or four
men were sent down and posted in front of the
premises. Meanwhile, Lady Charlotte c. fol-
lowed the shop-keeper'S example. She lightly
leaped from the back window into an unre.
quented lane, made her way into a decent
house, told her story, sent for coach and quiz
city rode to her inn unrecognized. During this
flight and escape the mob grew denscr and
more impatient. At length the shop door was
opened. The tradesman informed the people
how Lady Charlotte had got away, and asked
undisturhed passage for the young lady and
gentleman who remained. This was granted,
for there was nothing eccentric about the cou-
pie, who were ciyily allowed to gang their
gait" The regning beauty lived to a great
age-between eighty and ninety Age did not
bring wisdom with it, if the story be true that
when she was old she went to court in dress
every way as Objectionable as that which, in
her youth, she ruffled the plumes of Queen
Charlotte's propriety. In her declining years
she had not only lost the once handsome Jack,
but his estates, too-lslav and Woodhall had
gone to creditors. The old lady, however, mar
ried clergyman named Bury, turned to lite
rary pursuits, and, among other books, pro-
of George w., which was edited by Gait

A Lettef from, the Emperor William to
Presfdtnt Grant-Its Presentation nnd
Remarks by the President and Baron

Baron Won Gerolt, the minister Of the North
German Union, called at the White House on
Friday last, and presented letter'from tire
German Emperor TO President Grant. Baron
Gero'' said:
Mr.. Pfesident-I feel most happy to be the
bearer of letter from my most gracious Sow,
ereign to. your EXcellency, conveying the. .noti-
fication that, at the unanimous request ot-the
sovereigns of the German States, and OF the
Tree cities of Germany, to assume the ancient
title OF Emperor, afterthe German Empire had
been re.estabiished by the union Of the Ger
mau States under one constitution, my august
Sovereign has considered it as o duty 10 the
com non Fuherland to accept Thankfully this
dignity conferred by the confidence Of his Ger
man cenfederates upon his Majesty and his
successorstethe throne OF Prussia.
In having the honor to presepthts MatestyS
letter to your kXceflency, it needs no new as
surance from me that the Emperor aud United
Germany desire to maintai9,. as heretofore,
their friendly relations with the government
and the people OF the United States, for whose
happiness aud welfare they have ealways enter
tained their most sincere wishes.
The President replied:
Baron Gerolt-The notification which you
have conveyed te me relates to en- event OF
great historical Importance. The States OF
this Union, which Severalfy Dear felaCl0n 10
the others similar to that which Prussia bears
to the other States OF Germany, have recently
made such sacrifices and efforts towards main
tanning the integrity of their common country,
for general purposes in peace and war, that
they cannot fail to sympathiza in similar pro-
ceedings for like object elsewhere. The new
title which has been accepted by your Sow
ereign may be regarded as the symbol and the
filfllment on it's part by Germany OF that high
purpose. .-.... =
The disposition which you express on behalf
of theEEperor of United Germany to. ,naln-
tain unimpaired its friendly relatfans with tife
government and people OF Tie United States,
Is heartily reclprocated.

"A special dispatch from Columbia to the
New York Sun, dated on Wednesday last, de-
scribicg the adjournment of the Legislature.
says: "The scene on the floor of the House Of
Representatives just before the adjournment
was disgraceiul. Drunken members, the ma
jorily OF them negroes accompanied by color
ed women Of the lowest class, appeared on the
floor and outraged the decency Of the House
by rlbald songs and indecent jokes. The ap-
preparation bill for paying the legislative ex-
penses OF the session, and which called for
s265 900, was vetoed by Governor. Scott, and
contrary to expectation, the veto was sus-
tanned; consequently the State treasurer can
not pay the members their salaries and mile
age. To-day Governor Scotts bank is crowd
ed with the negro members, who are having
their claims shaved at from Ave to ten per
cent. discount This is regarded here as
huge joke on the members, and as bit OF
sharp fnanciering on the part of the patriotic
Governor"

Some of the French and English Journals

some OIL Cne freuCn auu EHSilsil Jouru
in commenting on the treaty Of peace just
signed between France and Germany, which
cedes Esace aud Lorraine, argue that the
'boundarles.of France were established in 1915
by treaty signed at a congress composed Of
representatives of the several powers'ot Ec-
rope, and that consequently these boundaries
cannot he changed except by another Euro
pean Congress. 1t is further argued That the
treaties OF 1915 established an equilibrium of
the respective nations of Europe which Ger
many has no moral right to disturb. In an
swer to these positions, it may be repllea that
the treaties Of 1915 have been so often vlolat-
ed, andin 80, many particulars, that they Cap
not now be considered as binding. In tact,
Napoleon III announced about the time OF the
Italian war, that the treaties of 1915 were 80
much waste papsI 1t is certainly rather late
to set up these dkiquated agreements a. tor
bidding the spoliation of France, when not the
slightest attention has been paid to them by
that country for the last twenty years. He'd
France succeeded in extending her frontiers To-
the Rhine, the treaties Of 1915 would not have
interposed the slightest obstacle to the carry
ing out Of that project.
