that he had no fear of seeing the old folks.

smiled sweetly, and dropping down beside
the young man she said !:

The Young man gave start of alarm. He
didn't know whether he liked Sarah or not,
and he hadn't dreamed of such thing as
marriage.
"She has acknowledged to me that she
loves you," continued the mother, "and
whatever is for her happiness is for mine.
The young man gave two starts of alarm

The Pretty Empress of Austria.

[Paris Letter to the Philadelphia Telegraph
We are not, after ALL to be permitted to
catch a glimpse of the fair Empress of Austria,
though She did pass through Paris few days
ago. About thousand people went to the
railway station to see her come In, but the
lovely Elizabeth at the last moment quickly
changed her destination and came into Paris
by another route, thus disappointing the eager
crowd of sight seers. She is we'll worth look
ing at is this fairest of royal ladies, though
she is thirty eight years Of age and a possible
grandmother besides. I saw her at Vienna
ten years ago; she then looked about twenty,
slender as a reed and graceful as deer, with
the lovliest dark eyes in the world, and such
profusion of dark silky HAIR that it fell, coil
upon COIL from under her coquettish little
hat, only restrained by the M eshes OF fine
silk hair net. :,
Her style and elegance were indispensable,
far exceeding, to my mind, the more artificial
graces of the Empress Eugene. She dresses
very simply now, it is said, usually IN black,
gray or lilac, never having worn gay colors
since the death of her eldest daughter, sew
eral years ago. Her manners are marvellous
lv sweet and winning, and shs is az popular
as she is beautiful. Truth compels me to state
that it is currently reported that she henpecks
her imperial spouse numerically, and that he,
like wise man, submits quietly to her do
| minion. When she first arrived at the lmpe-
| rial Court, she gave immense ofense to her
| naughty mother-in-law, the Archduchess
Sophia, of evil memory, by insisting upon
going out walking (think of profaning
the sacred feet of the Empress of
Austria by contact with the vulgar earth y
and carving an umbrella, which last is, we
believe, fatal sin against royal etiquette.
She inherits the simplicity of her manners
from her father, the Archduke Macmillan
Luitpold, of Bavaria This gentleman always
travels very quietly, and with no more state
or form than any ordinary private gentleman.
He was recently on his way from Munich to
Vienna to visit his father. In the same COM
partment in the train with himself was 6
talkative little Austrian tradesman, who soor
got into a conversation with his quiet
looking companion. After talking ovel
matters and things for some
time, and getting ample information
about his business, his family, his destina
ton. ETC., he asked "and, pray, sir, where
, are Won goine?" ito Vienna. "On bust
ness?" "Ne, TO visit my daughter, who i
married to an Austrian" SIS your son-in
: law in q good business?" "Well-tolerabl.
: pood-but troublesome at times" "What i
Re?" "The Emperor At this answer tn
poor little man became covered with confu
sion, nor could all the laughing protestation
of the goodnatured Archduke avail to re
assure him, and he darted out OF the car
rage at the very next stopping place.

fortnight at sea and the mortality might have
been doubled, as only two Of the colored men
were able to keep their legs on deck. The
vessel was well provisioned; there was not
only the ordinary amount of beef and pork
sailed, but plentiful supply of canned veg
etables and Australian mutton and anti
scorbutics.
The mutton up to the time of reaching the
Horn was served twice month, and in round
ing the Horn twice week, thereafter three
or four times week. Lime juice was given
in triple doses, and it lasted we'll throughout
the voyage Captain Leslie says he is skilled
in ship medicine and is utterly at loss to
account for the prevalence of scurvy, unless it
be that the crew before being shipped had
come off long voyage, and were thus Pc
culiarly susceptible to attack. His log shows
that a number of them refused to take lime
juice, and persisted in the refusal at the
penalty of death
Despite the length Of the voyage, the pro-
visions lasted in suficiency for all with the
exception of the -four, and as consequence
of this the supply of bread was reduced by
one-fourth. The men who were sick had a
proper change in their rations-rice, sage,
preserved potatoes, oatmeal, and other vege-
table diet being served to them regularly,
together with medicines, of which latterly
the supply ran short. AS death after death
occurred, the crew were greatly scared, and
seemed to have premonition that few OF
them would outlive the voyage. The funeral
services were read by the captain with appro-
pirate solemnity in every instance, all the
crew being mustered aft. and at the conclu-
sion the body was dropped overb ard, shroud-
ed in blankets and bedding.
During the latter part of the voyage 1t be-
came difficult in the extreme to navigate the
| vessel and to take advantage of the winds.
The white men aboard were all OF the crew
the captain could rely upon, and these were
all enfeebled by extra work and want OF
slaep Had the captain put into Valparaiso,
and selected fresh crew, be would probably
have saved the lives of number Of his men
and brought his vessel quicker to port; but
| this is matter of judgment, and in such
cases no man should be censurable, although
his discretion may be questioned.
| The British Consul proposes to summon
court of inquiry forthwith, and the events OF
| the voyage will, no doubt, receive thorough
| inves. igation. In all likelihood the inquiry
will be public. 1t is somewhat remarkable
that until few days from port none of the
| white men or white boys showed symptoms OF
scurvy. CAPT Leslie attributes this circum-
stance to superior physique, as from himself
downward the same food was given TO all
San Francisco, Cal, Aug 24-The court
of inquiry in the case of the scurvey-smitten
ship Bremen convened to.dtg. The captain
testified that an abundance Of fresh food was
regularly served.
