Her Majesty was exceedingly graci-
Gus and charming in this interview.
There was less formality than cordial
warmth and kindness in the welcome
she extended to the fair young strang-
er. She expressed much interest in
everything relating personally to Miss
Grant, making inquiries as to her
home, the President and other mem
bers of her family, her country and
impression of travel, to which Miss
Grant replied with modest ease and
dignity.
In the evening OF tie same day Miss
Grant dined with Earl and Lady Gran
vile, and on the following day "a .fet6

Gen. Badeau at his country seat in
Brentiord, to which the creme de la

LONDON, April &c, 1872.
On the arrival of the Presidents
daughter in England, the American
Minister. General Schenck, gave a
dinner in her honor, to which were in
vited Earl and Lady Granville, Mr..
and Mrs. Gladstone, the Duke and
DRchess of Argyle, the Danish Minis

and Lady Ripon, Mr.. and Mrs. BOriO,
Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac Z. Bates, Gen.
Badeau, Gen. Woodruff and several
other persons of distinction.
General Schenck led Miss Grant out
to dinner. The table was decorated
with rare flowers and fruits in exqui-
site taste, and the dinner, unlike those
one usually eats in London houses
during the season, was deliciOusly
served from cuisine that would do
credit to the most sumptuOus establish
ment in Paris. This was followed by
an evening entertainment, which was
attended by the entire diplomatic
corps.
Miss Grant was the bright, particu-
lar star to which all eyes turned, and
we trust it will not be deemed intru-
sive if we, say, although young, she is
perfectly self-possessed, quiet and
modest, with lovely face, winning
smile, graceful carriage and in an un.
affected manner of conversation. Her
debut in English society was most
successful. Though this may seem
simple enough to Americans, it is
really no easy matter to make "a favor.

Liberal" Interpretat ion q
the Bible.

a Wisconsin paper is responsible
for this:
One who does not believe in INNER.
sion for baptism was holding pro-
tracted meeting and one night preach
ed on the subject of baptism. In the
course Of his remarks he said, some
believe it necessary to go INTO the wa
ter and come out of it, to be baptized.
But this he claimed TO be fallacy,
for the proposition Into Of the Scrip
lures should be rendered differently,
as it does not mean into at all times.
Moses, he said, we are told, went up
into high mountain, etc. Now. we
do not suppose that he welt into the
mountain, but upon it. So with going
down into the water, it means simply
going down into the water, and being
baptized in the ordinary way, by
sprinkling.
He carried out this idea fully, and in
due season and style closed his dis
course, when an invitation was given
to any one who ielt disposed to rise
and express his thoughts. Quite a
number of the brethren rose and said
that they were glad that they had
been present on this occasion; that
they were well pleased with tho SER
mon they had just heard. and felt their
souls greatly blessed Finally, cor
pulent gentleman, of Teutonic extrac-
ton, a stranger to all, arose aud broke
silence that was almost painful, as
follows;

AMUSING SCENE ON A STREET
CAR.-The passengers on one of the
Riker's street cars laughed some the
other morning at scene between the
conductor and well-dressed young
man from Georgetown. AS the car
was passing down the avenue, the
young man at the time standing on
the platform taking it easy, with one
foot on a trunk, he was approached
by the conductor and his fare deman
ded. He quietly passed over his five
cents.
Conductor. I demand twenty five
cents for that trunk.
Young man hesitatingly. Twenty
five centsi Well, l think | will not

Young man. You had better not,
or You may be sorry for it.
Conductor pulls strap, stops car,
dumps trunk on the avenue, starts

approaches the young man, who was
still as calm as a summer morning,
and in an angry mood says: " Now

YOUNG MANS OBJECTIONS SILEN-
CED.-The Detroit Free Press relates
the following:
Some time ago, a widow named
Mrs. Catherine Walking, living on
Franklin steert, fell in love with a
sailor named Hughes, OF he did with
her, and the result of it was that they
have been talking about getting mar
ried for a mouth past. Two things
hindered-the widows son, young
man of nineteen, named John B.,
swore he would shoot both mother
and sailor if they attempted to marry.
Hughes has not been able to leave
his vessel long enough to have the
ceremony performed. 1t was last
week agreed upon between him and
the widow that yesterday forenoon
should be the date OF the ceremony,
John B., to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. 1t vas believed that the young
man would raise something of iuss,
but that he would not proceed to
extremities. The time of the ceremo-
ny was kept secret from him, and
yesterday morning he went OFF to his
work. About 10 O'clock Hughes and
minister sailed into the widows
house, followed by small crowd OF
the sailors friends. The widow was
al. ready, looking as bright as a rose,
and things would have moved of
nicely but for the sudden appearance
of John b. Some one had carried the
news to him, and he came home on
the run. He had a revolver upstairs,
and he entered the house to get it,
shouting that q he would shoot every
one of them preacher aud all" Per
haps he would have done so, only tive
of the sailors seized hold OF him.
hauled him out into the yard, and
then sat down on him. "Go ahead

tars to the clergyman. The clergy
men went ahead, and in two or three
minutes Mrs. Watkins was Mrs
Hughes. While tue ceremony was
being performed one of the sailors 50,

but he could not get up.
