Though somewhat of a paradox, it is q
good rule that when a nan gives his word
he should keep it.
The Empresa Victoria.

A London paper says the pu0lic reading
OF the proclamation was done in a way that
made q contrast to the romantic grandeur
of the circumstance itself. An imperial
diadem has been assumed, and the people
OF this great empire, upon which it is said
the sun never sets, were made acquainted
with the fact by three civic functiOnaries
and trumpeter. who went in a couple OF
cabs or brOughams to Charing Cross, Tenn
pie Bar and BrentfOrd to declare it. A
great event, whereby it is expected mag
nifcent Indian princes will be pleased.
and thus Strengthening in their allie
glance, and which has, moreover, stirred
the cOnstituti0nalism of England to it's
depth, was proclaimed with no more
ceremony than the emerging of two sheriffs
of London and the town clerk from two
Trafalgar square, to read what had been
done, and blare of trumpets at its con-
clusiOn. "FrOm the vehicles" says one re-
porter, "there descended the sheriffs of
London and the town clerk, accompanied
by two trumpeters; and having assumed q
commanding position, Mr.. Alderman knight
Zone of the sheriffs) directed the clerk to
read aloud the proclamation which in some
what ambiguous terms has lately desig-
mated her majesty Empress on all conve-
nient 0ccasiOns.' The unusual language of
the paper and the rapt bewilderment Of
those among whom the ceremony had com.
menced soon drew together group of peo-
pie, numbering perhaps twenty or thirty,
when at the termination of the
recital orders were given to the two trum-
peters who constituted the civic following to
blow fanfare in honor of the empire. The
trumpeters did their duty, as trumpeters
always will, and blew blast" whilst the
idlers collected gave three cheers; the func-
tionaries thereupOn went into their vehicl %
again and drove off to Brentford, with the
trumpeters, one upon each box seat, to re-
peat the performance there Thus we are
accustomed to see Punch and Judy, the
scrobats, the intelligent birds and other
street exhibitions, after performing at one
stand pass on to engage attention at an
otner. One might have thought that Mr..
Disraeil, in order to mark the greatness Of |
bis achievements as we'll a. it's historical
Importance, would have organized q state
procession and proclaimed i'm perialism with |
Ill the pomp and circumstance Of power
heralds and Cabinet ministers. cavalry and |
regiments of the line. with bands of mnsic
playing, church bells ringing. and the
shouts Of az many thousands Of loyal sub.
