A Reminiscence of King Louis Phil.
ippe.

A PARIS correspondent of the Boston
Post writes as follows:
Once when was quite young, was by
when very laughable but this is a
story, and l should begin it another way.
'Tis about one of the great painters of
those old days; the painter of interiors,
Bouton, friend and comrade of Daguerre,
who invented the daguerreotype. M.
Bouton was at work one morning on an
immense canvas, painting 1.-The Revolu-
tionists in the Crypt at St. Denis,' when
some one struck at the door of his atelier,
and entered without knocking or an
nouncing himself. "Ah" says NJ.
Bouton, with his mouth full of paint
brushes. And glancing at the visitor, who
looked shabbily dressed and stood bow
ing and smiling, he calls out: "Look
about if you like; don't mind mel" This
the visitor did, poking the corners with an
old cane, and peering into the pictures
hung about through bent pair Of specta-
cles. Finally he came up to the great
canvass, and stood, saying: "Hm-hm-m,
ha-a-," over the painters shoulder. M.
Bouton suppressed " sacrs!" And won
dering where he had seen that inquisitive
face before, cries:
"Well, how is everybody at home:"
"Oh, nicely, thank you"
$50 much the better" replied Bouton,
with his eyes ON his canvas, Children

Recent TrOuSSeauS.

A PARIS correspondent says: The
principal dresses of the rousseau of the
Princess of Milan, nee Natalie de Kcscho,
were as follows: A reception dress Of sui
phur faille trimmed with flax plaitings of
silver gauZe; tablier to match, trimmed
with sprgs of oak leaves and aCorns. An
evening dress of silver-colored satin,
tablier of same-colored gauze, embroid-
cred with delicate tlounces in colored silks
and bordered on each side with very large,
pale roses of various shades A splendid
evening dress of rich Danubc-blue silk,
covered with NIalines lace Of immense
value. A travelling costume of brown
siciliennc; the back of the skirt trimmed
up to the waist with tlounces of the same,
edged with brown velvet; the tabicr bor
dercd with Il band OF CrOss-Cut velvet and
brown feather trimming; a deep jacket
forming corsage, with very long
basques, trimmed with the same
feather trimming. A loose morning
gown of white sicilienne, elegantly
trimmed with pink silk and cascades
of Malines lace, with masses Of pink rib
bons The trousseau of the young daugh-
ter of the Duke of Albe, brother in law 10
the Empress Eugene, is rich enough,
however, to make up for the comparative
simplicity of the outfit of the Princess
Natalie The Empress niece having
married the Duke de Medina Coeli, the
richest man in Spain, her father seems to
have thought it necessary to expend
fortune on her outfit As for the dresses,
it would need a newspaper to describe
them; but the splendOrs of the trOusscau
may be inferred from the outlay inpocket-
handkerchiefs. There are sixty Of these
objects, one dozen of which cost $3.50, the
rest being somewhat less costly, but still
enormously expensive. The mere en-
broidering of the ducal arms on the dozen
of handkerchiefs at forty pounds piece
cost twenty pounds. The arms of Ber-
wick are Joined with those Of Medina
Coeli in these wonderful wipes" the
double escutcheon being embroidered in
gold by new system Of metallic thread,
perfectly flexible, of pure gold, and that
does not change in washing. The outfit
in question comprised, among other mar
vels, some cachemire shawls of the most
exquisite quality; one of them, OF
creamy white, was woven in Persia espe-
cially for the young Duchess, and is mag
nificently embroidered with gold thread

The BOOt.Black's Story.

WHEN a dozen newsboys and boot
blacks had collected on the Custom
House stairs yesterday, and when each
one had grown tired Of jaw breakers and
popcorn balls, "Little English re-
marked:
"Sposen Jim Cocoanut tells us story"
"Sposen," remarked all the others.
"Well, gentlemen" remarked Jims
after few digs at his head, 81 Will tell
you a true story about girl. Her name
was Marier, and she had yaller hair, blue
ewes, small feet, and she was worth a mill
ion dollars
"In stamps:" asked Cross Eyed Dick.
"In clean cash, right in the savings
bank" answered Jim. "The girl was
an orphan, with no one to boss her
around, and if she wanted to be out till
'leven O'Clock at night she could. There
were piles of fellows after her to marry
her, but she stuck up her nose at the hull
caboodle."
"What fur?" anxiously inquired Fire
cracker Tom.
"What fur? Why, she knew they loved
her money instead of herself. She wanted
some one to love her earnestly and like
gosh. Well, one day when she was go
ing down to the postoffice to see if there
was ary mail, runaway horse came
along. Marier tainted away and sat down
in the road, and she'd have been broke all
to pieces if it hadn't been for boot
black bout my size. He pulled her into
shooting gallery, brought her to- and
then hired hull omnibus and took her
home"
"And they fell in love and were finally
married." replied Suspender johnson.
mo, my ellow-countrymen," sadly re-
piled Jim" she gin him ten centsr'
"And is that all?" exclaimed three or
four voices.
"Ail she gin him, and that turned out
TO be counterfeitr'
There was long period of silence, and
then Cocoanut Jim continued:
(Which is lesson to us never to marry
a girl worth million dollars
And we never shallr' they sclemnly

their lands, I began to think that the
Prophet was not infallible. | began to
doubt my religion, and made final eff
fort to restore my waning faith, ard was
baptized by immersion in the Endowment
House, but the ceremonies were conducted
in such an indifferent and ludicrous man
ner that my belief was still more shaken
instead of strengthened. During the last
two years of my Mormon life | lived at
Salt Lake in cottage scantily fitted uptor
me by Mr." Young. In order to earn
my own living | gained his consent to
keep boarders. Finally, becoming dis
gustcd with that manner of living, | re-
solved to leave him, and on the 7th of
July, 1878, | sold my" furniture, left
the house, and went to the Walker House,
a leading Gentle hotel. While there l
received many letters of congratulation
from Mormon women, who expressed
their fears for my safety. Many even then
wished me to retrace my steps, saying
that probably the angels would whisper
in Brgham's ears to treat me better; but l
replied that did not wish any intcrter-
cncc from the angels My sufterings were
such that at several times | was on the
point Of committing suicide, and my only
course was to make desperate effort,
which did, and left him. On the 18th
of November following | LEFT Salt Lake
secretly and in Il closed carriage.
The lecturess then directed her remarks
to the Prophets numerous family, saying
she was not actuated by malice or revenge
in thus exposing the secrets of his house
hold Amelia is his favorite wife, and is
the ruler of the household. She gives
rather than receives counsel from him.
She dimes with him, seated at his right
hand, as the honored guest, and their table
is supplied with all luXurirs and dclica-
cies The other five wives who live IN
this same house with him and his favorite
dine at a different table and on the cOarsest
food. He forsakes all others for her The
secret of this is, he loves and fears her.
She has IA violent temper, and on one oc-
casion, while l was in "Mr" Young's
office talking to him on business, Amelia
came in and, seeing me, violently slammed
the door and left. Mr." Young unccre-
moniously got up, left me, and followed
her When Brigham married Miss Van
Cott, it is said, Amelia invoked curse
upon his head On one occasion Brigham
sent her a sewing machine. Seeing that
it was not the kind she wanted, she kicked
it downstairs. Brigham then sent her
the one she preferred.
In conclusion, the lecturess earnestly re-
ouested her hearers to instruct their repre-
sentativcs in Congress to vote against
every measure that tended toward the
recognition of polygamy as religious
principle.
