A TS-We Tale.

A very romantic case is just now ex-
citing the people Of Milan, and may well
serve the purposes of the novelist. A
change Of children by an interruptions
nurse has often been the basis Of sensa-
tional fiction, and the writer who next
uses it may produce Q story founded on
fact. A nurse has just died at Milan,
who confessed, at the point Of death,
that twenty-one years ago she had the
care of the healthy son Of merchant,
and of the sickly heir of lady of high
position. II was much to the interest of
the latter patron that she should not be
childless. Apprehending that her son
could not live, she paid the nurse heavy
bribe to pass off the merchants -on as
her own. The child grew up, and in ut
ter ignorance of his true position until
the revelation above mentioned was
made. Hissupposed mother is still alive,
and is said to be as warmly attached to
him as il he were really her son. The
facts must come before the courts, but no
record of Judicial proceedings is yet an
nOunced.

The Comte Chambord may after all he
clnging to a myth in adhering TO his
famous white flag. The London Times
says:
"M. Desjardines has written pamph-
let in which he contends up to 1889
France had no national flag, but that
every regiment had its own standard
decorated with q white badge, the old
Huguenot symbol which was adopted by
Henry Nv. As for the white cornet,
which he regards as the ancestor Of the
white flag, it was introduced in the mid
die Of the sixteenth century as a sign Of
superior command. But Charles TX and
Henry w were the only kings who used
it, though up TO the Revolution every
colonel was entitled TO display it. The
cockade varied in different regiments;
but in 1867 the infantry received white
cockade, and under Louis XVI it was
extended to the cavalry. In the navy
both blue and red were originally hoisted,
then blue alone: while Louis XVI re-
served the white nag for his own vessel,

7Re RepWbtfcUs Press Warn Presf-
aenf GraNf.

The Cincinnati CARTE, one of the most
able::and loyal Of the Administration pres,
thus warns President Grant:
The Republican party has very large
interest in President Grant, and the latter
has lively interest in the Republican
party. We, therefore, as a supporter Of
the Republican party and friend of the
President, beg leave to say few words
to the latter, and in order that there may
be no Misunderstanding about the mat
ter, and to prevent our words from
being pocketed by intermediate agents,
we print what we have to say. There is
q person in Washington known as Gov.
Shepherd, who has q very bad reputa-
ton throughout the country. This per-
son is regarded as the head Of the gang
who are known to have improved " the
City of Washington at an enormous cost
to the public, and, as is generally be-
lieved, with profit to themselves. That
the public are swindlsd by the so-called
Ring is now generally believed.
One feature Of President Grants char
acter, fully as prominent as any other, 10
disposition to stand by his friends, and
to take care Of his wounded. This is, in
itself commendable, but it may be carried
too far, and q person may often treat
persons as his friends who are in reality
his enemies In this respect President
Grant has, in our opinion, made many
mistakes. Notably in the mistake that
proved seriously injurious to himself
personally, and to the party he repre-
sents, while its general effect was de-
moralizing.
This brings us to the point to which we
desire the Presidents attention, for the
purpose Of showing him that his friend
ship was misplaced. There is paper in
Washington :called the Capital, edited
and published ostensibly by Don Piatt,
Esq. This paper has abused the Presi-
dent regularly and severely. and without
cruple. 1t even charged him with COM
plicitly in the District Ring frauds, while
it defended Shepherd and held him up
as a model man. For this Shepherd
might not have been responsible, al
though it seemed strange that, while the
President was trying to vindicate that
individual, papers that were friendly to
the extent Of defending Shepherd in
dulged in the coursest abuse toward the
President. But now it comes out that
Shepherd was all along a stakeholder in
the Capital newspaper, and controlled il
40 far, at least, as regarded himself
Shepherd may deny this. The Capital
has already denied il, but there is evil
dence that the statement is true.
Grant did himself an injury in trying
to sustain Shepherd. We have no doubt
he did it in good faith. What is to be
said Of the man thus defended, who per-
mitted his organ ts abuse and slander
his best friend?

The country has gone on now no long
without any attempt by an occupant Of
the Office OF President to assume greater
and more permanent power, that our
minds are unaccustomed to think Of such
a thing. To many the bare idea Of such
a thing being possible has never occurred;
and il il does suggest itselfit is dismissed
as absurd.
With some Of the leading spirits that
rocked the infant cradle of American
liberty, and laid the foundation Of our
Government, il was far different. Pat
rick Henry, one Of the foremost of this
noble band Of patriots, was filed with
apprehensions and alarm at the PROPOSE
ton TO bestow 80 much power upon the
chief Executive Magistrate. Addressing
the State Convention of Virginia, he
said:

ambition and abilities, how easy il is

A woman's love is ever uppermost in
her mind. Sleeping, it fills her dreams;
on waking it is her first thought; in the
moment of liie's imminent danger, still
still il is the uppermost sentiment, es-
pecially il the object of her love is her
umbrella. For instance, a lady, fat, fair
and forty, had recently narrow escape
from being killed in the Citadel Station,
Carlisle, Pa. She fell over the platform
while the train was coming in, and was
rescued lying on her back in the four
foot under the engine, whence she was
extricated from her perilous position un-
injured, Notwithstanding that she had
been dragged several yards by the en-
