two distinguished members of their reignln!g
dynasties To speak first Of the bride. she is
the daughter of the Gar of all the Russlas,
the sister of the Czarewitch, destined Que day,
according to the ordinary probabilities OF llie,
to ascend the throne of Russia, as Alexander
III. AS to the royal bridegroom, apart from
his rank as Prince of the blood royal OF Eng
land, he is the heir to the Dukedom OF Co.
burg, the brother-in-aw of the Grown Prince
of Germany, and Of Prince Louis of Hesse;
and both bride and bridegroom are connected
by a Kindred family tie of almost blood rela-
tionship with the Crown Prince of Denmark
and the King of Greece. In the whole al
manach de Goths" there will not be found the
names of any royal couple entitled to claim kin
ship with so many and SO powerful sovereIgns;
In these democratic days the dignity OF royal
dynasties depends rather on the magnitude OF
their possessions and on the greatness OF their
power than on the antiquity OF their lineage.
The Geulphs, it is true, were sovereign princes
centuries before the Romanoffs were heard OF
in the ranks of royalty and the Prince, as
son of Queen Victoria, stands 10 the succession
to throne which was great and powerful for
hundreds of years before Russia emerged from
barbarism. On the other hand, the Emperor of
Russia may fairly claim to be the equal OF any
European sovereign in rank and dignity, and
the children of this Anglo Russian union may
Justly boast hereafter with equal pride that
their father was son of England aud their
mother dnughter of Russia.

NV Father.


If voutb the sweet and natural lines that award
ed so much credit TO My Mother for her
rieilent care, her tender emotion, and her love-
" maternal anxiety? That poem threw so
much into the mother scale that My Father
quite PASSED into insigui6cance in the house
hold. Compared with the dear mother who
did so much, it seemed impossible that My
Father could do anything.
At last we have champion OF My Father.
The name of this humanitarian is John Paul
l. e., this is his nom de plume, and he evl-
dently plumes his wing to some purpose as a
knight Grant in redressiug grievances and
rightiDg wrongs.
One thing has always seemed strange to me,
by the way-that all the sentiment Of song
should be treacled out upon Nam" and not
one bit of sugar for Dad" | don't object to a
good deal being done In pralsetul way tor
"Mother," but agree with the impartial critic
who remarked that the old gentleman ought to
have show occasionally. Be mine the task to
put in lyric word for the old man. l con-
tribute these verses to literature not to show
that | can do one thing as well as another, turn
off poem as easily as an agricultural essay !;
not with any intention to snatch the wreaths
from Bryant's brow, or rob Longiellow OF his
laures Though if critics will draw comparisons
hold me not to blame if they turn In my tavor;)
but [ simply sling these verses at your head,
good reader, iu feeble endeavor to do justice
to much neglected body of our fe fellowctlzens !:
MY FATHER.
Who hailed me first with rapturous JOY,
And did not fret and feel annoy
When the nurse said: Why Me'sa boy +?
My Father.
Who gave that nurse a half a crown,
TO let him hold me-awkward clown,
O course be held ME upside down?
My Father.
Who ne 'er to cut my hair did try
Jobbiug the scissors IN my eye,
And cutting every hair awry?
My Father.
Who set me in the BARRIERS chair
Instead, and had him cut my hair
Like my big brothers, good and square?
My Father.
Who when had little fight
Because Tom tore my paper kite
And bit me, said did just right?
My Father.
Who when Tom licked me black and blue
Did not turn in and lick me, too
Saying 'Tis my duty SO to do?'
My Father.
Who told me pluck and luck must win,
And laugh me to put up fir"
Till could trounce that Tom like sin?
My Father.
Who pennies nee refused to plank,
Nor dropped them in that mimic Bank, y
Where could only hear them clauk
My Father.
Who when I wished to buy toy
Ne'er thought twould give me much more JOY
10 send tracks to some heather boy?
My Father.
who bought me ponies, guns and sich,
And gave me leave to fork and pitch,
While be raked up to make me rich
My Father.
And IN 'ho at last, when all was done,
paSsod;n anu % = his checks, and, noble one,
isft al, be ), ID to me, his SON.

~, ln - ,aasant NH, u the scent Of orange
blossoms is waited over the So ~s" 10. ei'ess
fields Of politics. and such is the ssI sh sus fso
ing We are enabled to announce 'es aao' ';s u;s
a marriage has been arranged BET | ~ anJ
Royal Highness the Duke of Edinbule ~ ahu .ha
the Grand Duchess Maria AexandroWns, tne ":
only daughter of the Gar of Russia This -
telligence will be received by the whole Eng
lish nation with general satisfaction; Tor to the
natural sympathy which all weddings awaken
Is here added the exalted fortunes OF the pc
trothed pair and the interest attaching to the
land aud lineage of the bride Between the
people of this country and the royal family OF
these realms there exists a very close and ex-
ceptonal sympathy. As was shown on the oc-
occasion of the Prince of Wales illness, the
personal fortunes Of the members OF the reign
my dynasty come home very closely to Eng
Sh hearts, aud we may say, without exagge-
ration, that the marriage OF any one OF our
royal princes or prlncesses excltes much the
sameuterest throughout the length and treadth
ot our world wide empire as would be caused
10 any private household by like event al
iecting one of its inmates AS our sailor prince
,-,as member of the profession which all
EDglishmen love and honor-the Duke of Ed
t''ui 81 HAS SpeCid ucl0 w ou1 uaIoLoA u
iections. With us there is old fashioned pre-
judice in favor of young men assuming, the
duties Of married life, and becoming heads of
families while sti in their full vigor and prime.
The late President Lincoln expressed genu-
lne Anglo-Suxon sentiment when, on receiving
from Lord Lyons the official announcement of
the Prince Of Wales marriage, he rejoined
with the genial remark, Go thou and do like
wise The Duke OF Edinburgh is now with
III few months of entering his lhirtieth year;
the priucess whose hand is about TO be con-
lerced upon him, is some ten years his junior,
and is reported to be possessed of great person
al attractions and intelligence. The approach
lug union, it may be fairly said, offers every
reasonable prospect of happiness. The Prin-
cess, we are given to understand, will retain
the taith-that of the Orthodox Greek Church
in which she has been born and bred; but the
children of the royal pair, if their union should
be blessed with offspring, will, it is stated, be
brought up in the Protestant creed of this
country.
Iu point of rank and station, the Prince and
Princess will stand upon an equal footing and
both Russia and England will have just cause
to be proud Of the alliance contracted by these

PEARL FLOUR AND MEAL

The otial from these various articles combined
makes very valuable article Of food for horses
and cows, to which the attention of those inter-
ested is invited.
We claim superiority for the Hominy made
upon our Patent Mills for the following reasons:
First. 1t is made from dry corn without hsv-
ing to go through the soaking process necessary
in the old way of making hominy, for the pur-
pose of removing the husks, which causes it to
begin to spoil from the moment it is thus made
Whereas our process puts it in drler condition
than corn ever is naturally.
Secondly The same bulk Of our Homlny Will
produce fifty per cent more of the cooked article
than by the wet process Us ours sWells wnlle
cooking, while the other swells while soaking,
Thirdly. 1t takes half the time to cook.
Fourt6ly 1t can be shipped with safety from
spo,ling to any climate, making cheap subst-
tute for rice and beans.
The above also applies to our Pearl Corn
Grits. The best proof Of the superiority OF Hom-
inv and Grits made upon our Patent Mills is
that thew have been adopted by the Army and
Navy of the United States and approved by all
who have used them.
