ed an ordinance to repeal section 26 Of chap
ter so of the city ordinances, &C., concerning

puags That he had In his Office the record
of one of them, who has been convicted OF
an offence against the laws of this Common
wealth. He also had ah extract from the
record Of the case in regard to the chief ot
detectives of this city which shows that, II
ANYTHING, he Is even more guilty than the
man now under conviction"
It would be improper for me to enter into
discussion OF the proprlety of the pro-
posed change, but / have right to speak as
to the comments upon myself. Mr.. Chris
tian Is clerk of the Court Of Appeals, and as
such he has no rightto pass an opinion upon
cases pending in that honorable court His
duties there are simply ministerial, and
due regard for the p0sition he occupies
should have restrained him from the use 81

WHAT REALLY KEPT MARK ANTONY IN EGYPT.
II was Cardinal Richelieu, or Marco Polo, forget
which, who pronounced history an agreed fable,
and inquisitye investigators are proving daily that
all history Is not history. For example 1t is now
boldly asserted that Bacon wrote Shakespeare, ST.
Patrick Homer's Iliad and that Napoleon Bona
parte was son OF George the Third. Historians as
well as dIamattsts too, have for centuries made the
credulous believe that the seductive beauty and
witchery OF the dark-eyed Cleopatra kept Antony
away from Rome and virtuous Octayia, when re-
cent explorations in Egypt by Sir Samuel Baker,
General CUlston, and Pasha Aboukir, demonstrate
beyond doubt that while the great triumvir did
fondy love the royal sorceress OF the Nile 1t was
an almost insane mania for fruits, such as Egypt
then only produced, that really weaned him from
home and kindred. These discoyerers have further
ascertained that 1t was his habit to have many
5000 varieties of fruit at single banquet, and
that he was wont TO describe Paradise as place
where luscious fruits gorgeous flowers and highly
favored delicacies tempted the eye and palate at
every step.
Simultaneous with this Interesting contribution to
history Is the declaration by the Court Journal at
Rome that the entire ANToNI family OF modern
Italy a1e lineal defendants of Mark Antony. Now,
curious to relate In yeridcaton of this assertion our
ANToS1, thesPrince Of Confectione:s, Is now hourly
enjoying the most perfect happiness simply be-
cause he finds his palatial establishment On Main
street filled with the rarest fruits the vineyards aEd
orchards of the world can furnish. Grapes from
Malaga, oranges from Havana and the Medlterra.

Smyrna and Spain, dates from Africa, and pears
from California jucier and ripper than ever tempted
Mark Antony or Mother Eve. 80
Then luxurious Paris has not only contributed to
his sock the most decately favored and beautiful
ly.tinted CONNECTIONS, but, with the cities of Germa-
ny, Amercs, and Great Britain, has furnished fam
cy gifts rare enough for the boudoirs Of the Duchess
of Edinburgh or Madame sartoris. SO, II You want
