Lager for Royalty.


In our report of the visit of Dom
Pedro, the Brazilian Emperor, to
West Point, we noted the fact that
the Empress and her lady friend,
Dona Josefna de Fonseca, Visconte
BON Retro, and Chevalier de Mas
edo, did not cross the river at Gar
risons to inspect the United States
military post, pleading fatigue and
desiring needed rest from long
journeyings. Hardly had His Maj
esty, the Emperor, reached General
Ruger's headquarters when the
Empress and Dona Josefna with
their male friends alighted from
the Wagner drawing-roOm car, and
made their way leisurely to the
nearest grocery. Now, there was
nothing very peculiar in a Brazilian
Empress approaching an American
grocery, but when Her Majesty, the
Empress of Brazil, seated herself
upon the steps of the aforesaid
grocery, with Dona Josefina by her
side, and the male attendants called
for lager for four, then came that
true inwardness of feeling which
always surrounds a merry group
gathered for a festive round or two
Of the famed Teutonic beverage.

A Coa1Ir stata Chnrint-

Probably the most costly state
chariot ever yet built has Just been
completed for the Mikado of Japan
by Messrs. Morgan & Co., of Lon
don. The body of the vehicle is of
the finest Spanish mahogany, and
fashioned after an old Flemish pat
tern which allows of an unlimited
amount Of Ornamentation and ex-
ceptional interior comforts. 1t is
considerably larger than European
state carriages generally, but the
popularity Of its construction adj
mits of the draught being very
light. The panels are painted a
rich pale green, with white and
gold trellis and scroll ornaments,
the gliding being very profuse.
The metal appointments are silver
gilt, the door-handles and lamps
being, massive and richly chased.
Traditional emblems of Japan, con-
spicuously the tortoise and dragon,
surmount each corner of the roof.
in the center of which is a Japa-
nese crown. The interior is luxu.
riously upholstered with cloth o
gold, rich Valenciennes lace, and
green silk velvet ornaments. Thc
under carriage is scroll-shaped, anC
richly carved and gilt, the color o.
tie wheels matching the body o.
the vehicle.

sesreI,v or eome mi France.

We are threatened with the COM
plete disappearance of every species
Of game, and even of small birds,
in various parts of France. In
some of the departments any kind
of animal that can be shot at is so
scarce that when a hare or a wood
cock appears in a district a number
of sportsmen rush upon it at once.
and the unfortunate animal falls
from the simultaneous discharge of
a line of fowling-pieces. 1t is to
prevent the total determination of
a number of useful and harmless
creatures that the Minister of
the Interior has addressed to the
projects a circular in which he
recommends them to watch closely
the enforcement of the game laws.
The Society for the Protection of
Animals is bringing its influence to
bear on the government with the
view Of causing the adoption of a
regulation with the same object.
They propose that the owners of
dogs should be compelled to put a
collar, bearing their name and adj
dress, on the recks of their pets,
so that they might be rendered
responsible for any damage done
among the game. This practice
has been followed in Lisbon for
some time, but considerable diff
Guilty has arisen from a breach of
the law which has accompanied it,
for, as all the police can insist on
is that a collar with an inscription
should be worn by every dog, the
authorities have been put to no end
Of inconvenience by the discovery
that whenever a defaulting puppy
was taken into custody he invariably
carried a wrong address-LOndOn

CLOTHING AT PANIC PRICES
A Plea for Actresses.

London Society,"
If the dramatic profession is one which
it is disgraceful for any lady to adopt,
reasons compels US to say that no lady
ought to enter a theatre at all. And social
inconsistency is still more strongly
brought out when we reflect that how ex-
cessiyely popular are amateur theatri-
calls, and to what a professional extent
they are carried. There are several pri-
vate houses in England which possess a
regular theatre, where every theatrical
continuance and stage sppurtenances
are to be found, and where performances
are repeated night after night, to which
friends, tenants and tradespeople are in
turn invited as spectators. Nobody
thinks there is any harm in this, and as
a simple matter Of fact there is no harm.
Ladies, in the highest sense of the term,
eagerly and brilliantly assist in these
performances, which are rapidly becom-
ing public in every way; for we know
that ladies often act in private theatres
to promiscuous audiences, who pay their
money for admission. Why, then, should
educated ladies who are born with the
dramatic instinct strong in them, but
have no other future to look forward to
except, perhaps, a prize in the matrimo-
NAL market, be debarred from adopting
the stage as a profession2 Surely it is
as honorable to work for a livelihood with
God-given talents as to sell a handsome
face to a wealthy sutton. Surely it is not
less worthy of a clever woman to teach
adults, from the stage, what they are and
what they ought to be, than to inculcate
the rudiments Of the education in the
school-room. Surely if the theatre is a
place to which we may take our wives
and daughters with impunity, we should
desire that the actress who Sc art they are
to witness should be in their turn women,
in contact with whom they should have
no cause to shrink from. Is is net a cry
ing shame. and a disgrace to the liberal
and enlightened age in which it is our
boast to live, that when gentlemen Of
birth and education find it necessary to
adopt the stage as their profession, they
should also find it necessary to change
their names, as if they were doing some
thing Of which society thinks they ought
to be ashamed2 Those who are practi.
cally acquainted with the profession
know by bitter experience the toll, the
hardships, the drudgery, the disappoint'
meuts that have to be gone through in
years Of hardest work, before a substan'
tial position can be gained; and society.
for whose intellectual amusement ana
intelligent recreation the theatre exists,
should warmly and heartily recognize
the lahors and efforts Of those upon
whom it depends SO much, and do all in
its power-apd it can do a great deal
to elevate and encourge all who possess
true dramatic genius.
