The RMSSiln Prince.

The young Duke Alexis. who received
SO cordial reception in New York and
Washington, is thus described His
blonde hair was combed back and lay in
soft silhen waves, leaving the high in
tellectral forehead entirely exposed A
light well-trimmed mustaehe overhung
a pair of ips as soft and rosy and as
delicately cut as any that ever graced
maidens face, \ pair of whiskers, not
bushy nor yet meagre, adorned the sides
of his face, at the same time adding
much to his manly beauty. His we'll
defined chin, his high, arched brow, the
classical cnt of his general features, and
the uncommon softness of the skin,
were all indications of his royal parent
age, thorough education, and princely
culture. Altogether his face was such
one rs every person could look upon
an' admire, aside from being = marvel
lously handsome" 1t has the true
light of intellect, and its whole express
sion is that Of noble, ambitious. gen
tie, commanding, brave officer. Having
studied his face, one could not help re-
gardInG his muscular form. While
standing erect III the presence of the
committee, the well-formed head tower
cd above them all, and even Gen. Nc
Dowell, the giant commander of the
Eastern Division was obliged to look up
whenever he addressed any remarks to
the Grand Duke His broad shoulders,
deep chest muscular arms and we'll
made limbs, showed how thoroughly
every sinew of his body had been de-
veloped. The Duke was in the full uni
form of lieutenant, consisting of blue
cloth tunic, and pants, cooked hat, and
sword. His shoulders carried the !
epaulettes customary to his rank, and a
massive epaulette extended from his
shoulder to his right breast. He wore
sash of blue watered silk, which repre-
sents the Order Of Saint Andreas, an !
honor conferred on all Russian princes
If the blood at thei- birth. His left |
breast was decorated with two badges, |
me worn by the imperial family, the

Microscopic Wonders.
MIGNoSRrTE.

Lewinnck tells us of an insect seer
with a microscope, of which twenty-seven
millions wonld only equal a mite.
Insects of various kinds may he seen
in the cavities OF grain Of sand.
Mold is forest of beautiful trees, with
branches, leaves and fruit
Butterflies are fully feathered.
Hairs are hollow tubes.
The surface of our bodies is covered
with scales like fish; single grain of
sand would cover one hundred and fifty
of these scales, and yet scale covers five
hundred pores. Through these narrow
openings the sweat forces itself like water
through a sieve.
The mites make five hundred steps a
second.
Each drop of stagnant water contains
a world Of animated beings, swimming
with as much liberty as whales in the
sea.
Each leaf has colony of insects graz
ing Oh it like cows in a meadow.

Hunting with Leopards in Baroda.

The procession is formed, headed by
cart containing the Bhow Sahib; then
another with the cheetahs, or hunting
| leopards, hooded, nnd looking anxious to
be off. Away we go across country, get
ting dreadfully knocked about, as we
drive over everything, and the carts
have no springs. We have got about
three miles, and now the excitement
begins, as we see an immense herd of
antelopes. The Bhow Sahib' does not
drive straight at them, but keeps work
ing round, and gradually edging in. The
cheetahs sniff the air, keeping their
noses pointed in the direction of the
herd. We are within about two hundred
yards the hood is taken off and Chez
tab let loose He starts off almost at
right angles to the direction of the herd,
gradually working in. Every now and
then, the stately old buck throws back
his horns, showing symptoms of alarm
but the cunning cheetah crouches down
behind some bush, remaining there until
the deer begin to Craze again, when he
steals few yards For hundred yards
or so a cheetah has greater speed than a
deer, but after that distance he is done.
This our friend well knows ; So he waits
till within that distance to discover him
self, singles out the back, chases him for
few minutes, makes spring on his
back, toppling him over and seizing him
by the neck. The poor beast suffers
but our attention is attracted by really
pretty sight-the flight Of the remainder
of the herd-composed Of two or three
hundred of probably the most graceful
little creatures in the world, who, in their
retreat, spring over all the little bushes
that obstruct their path. The " shirka-
rees, or huntsmen, run up to the victim
and cut his throat He is then cut open
and some blood caught in a wooden
ladle. This is held near the cheetah's
nose, and is so tempting that he lets go
his hold of the neck, drinks the blood, is
hooded and again placed in the cart,
ready for another run. We have two or
three more, aud return to an excel |
lent luncheon at the place, drink the
Guicower's health. which he gracefully |
through an interpreter) acknowledges, |
expressing his gratitude and the pleasure |
it gives him to zee So many guests. He |
then takes the ladies to see the Rance
a privilege denied to the gentlemen,
This ends the mornings amusement.
