The british Court.

The Worlds London correspondent
writes about the late royal scandal as
follows: As | happen to know the truth
of the matter | will give you the rumor
first, and then the real version. Rumor
asserts that on the late opening of St.
Thomas Hospital by the Queen the Mar
quis of Lorne accompanied his wife, the
Princess Louise, to the waiting room pre-
pared for the royal family previous to
the ceremony. According to the story,
the Prince of Wales, seeing him there,
desired one of the lords in waiting to in
form him that his presence was contrary
to etiquette. That funetionary however,
replied that he could only convey such
an intimation on the express command
of the Queen. Upon this the Prince ap-
preached Lord Lorne and himself made
the communication, and in consequence
the latter left the apartment and re-
mained outside in the corridor, not en-
tering the room set apart for the suite. F"
So much for the report. Now what hap
pened was this On approaching the
waiting room Lord Lorne himself dropped
his wife's arm and stopped, saying to the
Prince of Wales, who was standing at
the entrance, II suppose don't go in
here9" To this the Prince replied,
did not the Queen tell you to come
in2" On which the other answered,
" No, and | shall remain outside, which
he did, the Prince standing there also
and conversing with him, as if purposely
to support him. Ima

Chean Novels.

| was speaking the other day to one
or two London publishers about an arti-
Gle which appeared in the London Daily
News on your American system of
publishing novels. Here we issue a
novel, elegantly bound and gilt, in three
volumes, at a price little more than
eight dollars and half volume or
about eight dollars for the three volumes.
But ths public don't buy the books. The
great RBrariaae buy lot and lend them
around to the public. As a rule no pri-
vate buyer ever purchases tpree-vol-
nme novel. The librarian steps In, &
middle man between the publisher and
the public.
Lately some OF the public have begun
to grumble at this, and want 70 know
whT the works cannot be sold as in
America spd in France, cheaper in the
first Instance, and directly to the reader.
But | am assured that there are not
readers enough here to allow the cheap
and direct system TO pay. The number
of peopla who will buy, and would, at
any price, Il very small but a great
many will subscribe yearly guinea to

ter in the Golden Age.

Ter tnG GOtutm age.
From Woodruff & Claflin's Weekly lolJ
Let us turn to the consideration of my
offenses as enumerated by Mr.. Greeley,
the offenses of zone who has two hus-
bands after sort, "who lives in the
same house with them both, sharing the
couch of one, but bearing the name Of
the other" and Of one who may be per.
suaded to overbear her shrinking mod
esty and nominate herself" In respect
to my domestic relations, which were
dragged upon the public by those who
desired and intended to injure me, but
to whom | am only too grateful for that
favor, | knew not when | decided and
acted at the several epochs of my life
that ! should ever meet with single out
side friend who would justify me. But
as ! was justified to myself | decided
and acted as | did; and am only em-
barrassed by the idea that any one should
think that by speaking on the subject at
all | am condescending to apologize TO
anybody. Twas divorced from DR.. Wood
hull for reasons which to me were suiii-
cient, but was never his enemy. He
continued to need my friendship, and he
has had it, My children continued to
prize and to need his affection and pres
ence, and they have had them. Circum-
stances over which | assumed the right
to decide for myself, to the satisfaction
of all who were Immediately concerned,
made it best that should retain in pub
lie the name by which ] was already
known, as in the case of actresses, sing
ers, and other public women is often
done. In both respects my conduct is
undoubtedly irregular | knew aot how
it would be accounted of by the world if
the world should trouble itself with the
matter; but the complete acceptance
and justification not merely, but the ap-
preciative laudation also, which has been
conferred on my course in respect to my
two husbands" even in the most con
servative quarters, have been among the
most gratifying experiences of my life.
That | should have dared to be the pro-
tector and friend of discarded but un-
fortunate husband has not condemned
me in the judgment of the Christian
women and others of this enlightened
community, and, with the exception of
some thoughtless badinage and mere
slang, Mr.. Greeley's is almost the only
voice that has been raised adversely.

Remedy for Nervou. headache.

From the Poughkeepsie Press.
A well known Kentucky minister, sub
ject to severe spells of nervous head
ache, was in our Office the other day,
says an exchange, during one of those
attacks Major Brown, of Mexico, was
present and proposed to relieve him in
five minutes, which be did most eifectu-
ally. The following is the prescription:
Take dessert spoonful of common
soda, such as is used in making bread,
and dissolve it thoroughly in quart Of
cold water. With this thoroughly sham
poo the head for about five minutes,
scratching the skin Of the head and the
back of the neck we'll with the finger
nails. Then rinse the head with clear
cold water. Major Brown says that he
has used this remedy in perhaps thous-
and cases since 1852, and never once
failed 70 give relief in FIVE OF ten min.
uiGs. This remedy is for nervous head
ache, and is not for those alllictions Of
the head arising from deranged stomachs.

Items from Boscobel.

An accident occurred here on
Thursday to a little son of Mr.. Will
loughby which proved almost fatal.
The boy had been sent to the past
ure, q half mile away, for horse,
and il seems caught the horse. But
while attempting to bride the ami.
mai he whirled suddenly round and
kicked striking the boy in the fore
head and fracturing the skull badly.
Dr.. Carley was called TO dress the
wound and removed several pieces Of
skull. The doctor thinks the boy
will recover.
Business was astonishingly live
" up TO to within the last six days.
Large quantities of wheat and wool
were in the market. Our merchants
remark that the trade for three or
four weeks past exceeded that of last
fall and winter. The season, thus
far. has been remarkable for both
the sowing and growing Of grains,
and ,Boscobei looks forward with
anxiety to the seemingly brilliant
future.
Wild pigeons are plenty in the
Wisconsin river bottoms, and afford
great pleasure for the many sports
men Of Boscobel.
Tho scarlet fever which closed
the schools here several weeks has
disappeared, and no new cases are re-
ported.

A Joint County Teachers Institute
will be held in Muscoda, Com
mencing August 9TH, 1871. to
continue four weeks.

We are promised the assistance of
the following named educators from
abroad; Hosea Barnes, Superinten-
dent of Kenosha County; Robert
Graham, State Agent; IL. w. GIasier,
PRINCIPAL of the Muscoda Schools !;
Il. j. Brooks, Principal of the Men,
asha Schools Geo. w. Putnam, Su-
perintendent of Richland County !;
w. H. Holford, Superintendent of
Grant County; M. w. Bailey,
Principal of the Boscobel Schools.
The aid of the Faculty of the Platte
vile Normal School has been solicit
! ed and we expect some of the mem
bers to be present at least part of
the time. Also Hon. Samuel Fall
lows, State Superintendent, will be
with us one day.
Also the services of many Of our
country teachers will be required in
this work.
A general attendance of teachers
is requested. Please come provided
with text books, prepared to take a
general review of the studies TO be
taught in our schools. OF Readers
bring First and Fourth.
Board can be obtained at the ho-
tells and at private houses at reason
able rates.
We shall spare no pains to render
this gathering pleasant and very
profitable.
Several ne,0 and important features
will be introduced. One of these
will be a session of the teachers of
graded schools for the purpose of
fitting them to teach under uniform
course of study which we hope to see
adopted in all the village and many
of the country schools of our coun-
ties during the coming school year
We purpose having special drills
on the manner of conducting schools
and OF imparting instruction. Be
assured that every discussion and
class drill will have practical bearing
upon school-room labor.
Let beginners in the work and pu-
pills who expect to teach, come and
receive special instruction in the
Theory and Practice OF Teaching.
Let no teacher lose this oppOrtu-
nifty for improvement. Great i'm
provement is needed, and we can
make it if we will.
We hope that soon public senti-
ment will heartily sustain the Super
lntendent in saying that we must
keep pace with the times or be con-
demned as laggards aud thrown out
OF the ranks. And, when these AS
sociatiOns and Institutes shall be so
generally established in all parts of
our counties that all may attend, we
hope that School Officers will look
with suspicion upon those teachers
VIII 0 habitually absent themselves
from these meetings. Their certifi-
Gates should show whether they have
attended or not.
School Officers and all friends OF
education are cordially invited to at
tend all the exercises and especial
ly the evening exercises.
District Officers and others who
receive this notice will please post it
in public place.
