probably no house in this country that
contains such multiplicity Of articles
and in such beautiful and varied styles of
Arts most elegant designs, as the estab-
lishment of Messrs. E. & IL. T. ANTHONY
& Co., No. 50l Broadway, New York.
Their business was established in 1913,
when Dasuerreotyping was in its infan
cy. They have manufactures in several
parts of the city, some of which are Ope-
rated by steam, and employ about 100
operatives. In thtir line Of views they
have over $500 negatives, from which
they print their own publications be-
sides importing those Of all the celebrated
makers of Europe, embracing lines Cf
over 25O 900 views of scenery froN all
parts of the world. This firm received
the ''Medal of Progress" at the Vienna
Exposition, the highest priz awarded for
this line of goods.
1t is with this house that our young
friend and former townsman, G. II. MIL
LER, has associated himself as cashier, in
which capacity, we are informed by
friends who have lately been to New
York, he has won the confidence and es-

TIE WILLOW BY THE BROOK
BY MABEL n. HASTINGS.

'Tis the home Of my childhood,
| remember so well,
That stood on the shore
Where the bright sunshine fell
So layed and 50 honored,
That dear sunny nook
How loved the old willow,
That grew by the brook.
The cottage so white
Rose 50 lovely to view,
HaIf.shaded by eglantiues,
Dripping with dew;
While the ivy crept elosely
Der window and nook
But the willow was dearest
OF all, by the brock.
Far meath its sad beauty
A sister is laid.
Whose clear ringing laughter
Sweet music had made.
In the dear cottage home
There was a fond loving look
For the dear one now sleeping
On the bank Of the brook.

The Desperate Condition of

The Desperate Condition OF Spain.
Our news from Spain this morning is as
discouraging as ever. AS yet there are no
signs of improvement. 1t has been well
known for some time that the soldiers could
not be relied upon to do the bidding of their
officers. The only armed bodies of men in
Spain not demoralized are those which fight
under the banner of Don Carlos. A despatch
has just been received at Madrid from the
commander of the government troops at
Seville, conveying the intelligence that he had
been compelled to withdraw his forces from
that city in order to prevent conflict between
the soldiers and the citizens Supposing this
to be true, is it possible to conceive a more
pitiable state of things? 1t will not surprise
us, however, to learn that the government
troops have been withdrawn from Seville
because they were too much in sympathy with
the citizens and so could not be relied upon in
the event of rising to obey the orders of
their commanding officer. Whichever be the
correct view Of the case, it is undeniable that
the state of things thus indicated is well fitted
to inspire alarm. Seville is one Of the
grandest as well as one of the Oldest of the
towns of Spain. "Fair is proud Seville"
said Byron; 'let her country boast her
strength, her wealth, her site of ancient
days" When in such city it is found
impossible to maintain O garrison, it is dit
fcuh to resist the conviction that the general
situation is becoming desperate.
| This, however, is not the only piece of in
telligence which comes to Ms pregnant with
the same moral. Madrid is in condition
which bears striking resemblance TO that of
Paris previous to the outbreak Of the Com
mune. Sefor Pi y Margan has experienced
the utmost difficulty in forming Ministry,
and the rreconcilables threaten to take up
arms if the Ministry is formed exclusively Of
members of the Right The wrerched state
TO which the Spanish Treasury has been re-
duced is revealed in the extraordinary pro-
posal of the Minister of Marine to suppress
the Board of Admiralty and to discontinue
the Mediterranean squadron. The navy has
always been source Of national pride, and
when o Minister of Marine seriously makes
such proposal we may we'll take it for
granted that Spain-the proud Spsin of
Charles V. and of Philip H., the Spain which
conquered and 80 long held the New World
is all but draining the dregs Of her cup Of sor-
row. Without money and without credit,
with large portion Of her territory oveirun
