The Queen of England has reversed
the gallantry of Sir Walter Raleigh, who
spread his rich plush coat out for his
sovereign to tread upon. The Duke of
Sutherland is having shaft sunk in his
estate to improve some mines, and being
told of these operations while there, the
Queen expressed desire to see them.
The Duke escorted her thither, and while
Her Majesty was standing on the bank
inspecting the work, it commenced to
rain. A few yards off one of the men,
named Cooper, was saving timber for
the shaft, and needless of the rain, con-
tinued his work without coat. Pres
emily be was surprised to feel light
touch, and on looking up perceived the
Duke, who laid costly rug over his
shoulders, at the same time enchanting:
The Qneen requested me TO present
you with her own rug; you may keep 1t
and wear it.

The shops OF Paris.

Most foreigners are surprised at the
smallness of Paris shops--mere boxes
with almost the entire wares ofthe shops
hung in the windows. These wares
undergo almost constant change in the
arrangement, so that the appearance of
novelty be attained. While the streets
are lined with tiny shops characterized
by taste and elegance in their display,
there are no palaces of jewels or dry
goods like Tiffany's or Stewards If
you enter shop you are expected to
purchase, while to look over goods for
the mere love of enjoyment is not pei
mitted with any degree Of gracefulness.
When an article is purchased the buyer
accompanies the clerk to the caisse
(cashier), pays the price and receives
the change, if there be any, so that no
money passes through the hands of the
clerks. Men and women are about
equally employed in the dry goods shops
The latter are mostly devoted to special
ties. One shop is exclusively for mems
boots, another for women's, another for
repairing boots and shoes, etc. Postage
stamps are for sale only in tobacco
shops, excepting the postofiice.

The Nord is responsible for the follow
ing account OF horrible accident which
has Just happened Montrouge. A. M.
Dumas, residing there, an agent of man
ufacturing chemists in Rouen, has kept
for the last three months black ape,
which had been brought to him from
Africa. 1t was A. NJ. Dumas's custom
every evening before going to bed to
take a glass of eau saucre, into which he
put a little orange water The monkey,
which was in the bedroom and saw him
do this, is believed to have formed the
purpose of repeating the act, Mr.. Du-
mas had just received from his employ
ers a specimen of nitric acid which he
was to sell to retail dealer in Paris.
After having opened and examined the
bottle, he prepared glass of sugar and
water, went to bed, and fell asleep. The
monkey then poured the contents OF the
bottle into the glass and retired. Feel
ing thirsty during the night, M, Dumas
rose and swallowed the poison. He died
shortly afterwards, having suffered the
most excruciating agony. The Steele
adds to what is stated above, that when
the neighbors came in, the monkey was
seen with the empty bottle in its hands.
