Crowns and Hearts.

The gossips have moi yet done talking
Of the curious fact that on the opening of
Parliament the PrmCesstS Louise and Be
atrice both drove to Westminster in the
royal coach with the queen but of all the
lords, knights and gentlemen who tontl
part in the pageant, there was no place,
it seemed, which the Marquis OF Lnlmc
might titly occupy. The anomalous po-
sltlon which he occupied as husband of
the wife, must be CALLING TO the proud
young Scotch nobleman.
Long Years ago-but this IS bit Of
exclusive "reminiscences known only to Il
tew--thr queen, in the early days Of her
welded life, had one of those suuahblro
with her husband, OF the sort which COME
about sometimes, even between the most
loving married people. Chaglincd and
NeNrd, the prince rrlilctl t. his room and
locked the door. The queen took the
matter quietly for while, but after the
lapse of an hon she went to his door and
raped.
''Albert," she said, ''come out"
mo, will not" answered the prince;
"go away; let me alonc'
The royal temper waNed hot at this.
Sir she cricd 'come out at once
The queen whose subject You are, COM
manGs YOU"
He obeyed Immediately. Entering the
room she designated, they sat down in 81
lencc. For long time nothing was said.
The queen was first to break the silence
''Alhrrt." She said, ''speal1 to me"
''Does the queen command it he
asked.
mo, she answered. thrnNin inc her arms
about his neck, Your wife bc@s it." Olive

A REMARKABLE LETTER.


" WASHINGTON, April II. 1871.
DEAR SIR You ask me what think Of Presi
dent Hayes and his policy, and what the colored
voters Of your State and other Gulf States should
do il the National Administration ahandonS them
shall answer you fully and frankly. and as these
questions are constantly asked shall print my
reply and grant YOU the liberty to usr It many way
You please
PRESIDENT HAYES.
president Hayes is the wiscS and ablyst states
man of the day"-that is, his partisauS aui the
Office seekers say So. They have unanimously
voted that he is Il great statesman. an American
Rieheleu q second Bismarck; providcntally
sent TO Ie-cement the Union-wiTh the milk OF
human kindness. History shows that tod mas a
veto power over all such veriicts and that Iii,
ancient servant, Time, always records His opinion
and not that of the voice Of the parasites. Ani
Time think. will write it down that HAYES was
man OF good intentions-as it has already recorded
that Hell is paved with good intentions: that he
Was a man Of moderate intellectual capacity with
just tirmues5 enough and brains enough, to com.
nit political parriclde-to destroy the party that
invented hin that his vanity so great and his
grasp of contemporary tendencies so feeble that he
founded his policy not on social Facts anu organized
forces, but on 0r-Woven sentiments and pcdagogl
cal theories - unlike the epoch making mel of
history, who first diligently sought the truth with
out regard to their own Wishes and then directed
the complex elements existing around them. Hayes
is honest enough, and he means we'll But. as
Buckle has shown the greatest ills that have come
to man, through governments, have been inflicted
by conscientious ruers-mcn of excellent lntcn

As Lincoln will be known the Librrator Of the

Why the Russian Fleet is Here.

why Inc iIuSSlan fl6eI Is Here.
A Washington special to the Boston
Herald explains why the Russian fleet is
now IN American Watcrs
"Thc rumor that the Russian IIeet will
soon return to Europe is untolmded. The
Cars vessels We're not sent to this cOlln-
try simply to give he Grand Duke Il
pleasure trip; they came here on bust
ness, and until their work is finished they
will remain on this side Of the Atlantic
One OF our best known and thoroughly
posted naval officers remarked yesterday
that the Russian fleet would, in the event
of hostlitit5 in the East, find a field of
work Just outside American waters, which
would be OF incalculable value to Russian
interests.
This assertion WAS based on the fact that
Turkey will draw heavily upon the mar
kets for her munitions of war and COM
missary stores and that the fast sailing
Russian vessels would be employed in
running down and capturing these ear
goes as the vessels carrying them attempt
to leave American waters. 1t is also
| known that another Russian fleet is crllis-
ing along the coast Of California and there
can be no doubt that it is on the same
| mission. All of the vessels sent to our
shores by the Czar are fast sailers, and
should England become interested in the
struggle, their men-ot-War would ravage
| English commerce.
Bayard Taylor has been having hard
time Of it on the New York Central,
dragged back and forth, fed ON what the
train boy brought in. "My stomach, he
observed ''has accustomed itself readily
to the diets Of many lands, but it never
had a severer task than to keep up Il
moderate vital force on a basis Of popcorn
and Withered figs. When think of the
cups of invigorating beef tea, the glasses
OF wholesome beer, the crisp biscuits,
split to allow the insertion of 4 hot broil-
ed sausage, the appetizing cheese sand
wiches and the delicious pates in then
paper nests, which are offered to the
traveller in Europe, | wish we Americans
We're less ETHEREAL and more sensible in
our tastes The saddest thing about the
matter is, there is no protest. The typica
American traveller if he cannot swallow
the peanuts, popcorn, and Withered figs
remains hungry and cross He never
seems to guess that a vocferous demand
for the right things would soon create q
supply"

A FLING Ar THE DEMOCRATS.

If they were to do 50 in body, what would b"
the result Absolute protection, t" hrgIn with
in their rights of life and property. Ihry would
not be driven from their homes by the thousands
as they were driven into the highways OF South
Carolina Mississippi and Louisiana, because OF
their loyalty to the Republican party The penn"
cratic negro is the safest male creature ti' hho"
of in the Gulf States All other males must tight
for themselves For him only, every white shot
gun is ready to do battle to the death
The exodus of the blacks to the Democratic
party would make that powerful organization the
champion of negro rights. There is movement
growing rapidly i'll the Republican party that seeks
to limit the franchise to the educated class and to
the holders of property. The sentiment has sprung
out of the corruptons OF shillelah rule IN New York
and other Northern cities that are controlled by the
Irish vote. The Democrats will resist this measure
on behalf both of the Irish and the blacks because
the negro vote gives the South thirty members
ofCongress, which the Democrats have now gained gained
forever in consequence of Hayes Southern Policy

The recent death OF Edward Windllst.
the proprietor Of the once famous rrstau-
rant on Park Row. New York. has revived
many entertaining "reminiscences OF the
place when it WAS the taNurlte resort UI
actors, authors and journalists. John
Bruugbam'S rec0llcctlOns extend as far
back as 1872. and among them is this
good story nf Tom Cooper. the tragedian :
Cooper WAS Il great bon fflnft a marvel
l0llS lover Of good things. He was most
particular about his dinner. He would
90 over to Windusts Harder every morn
mg to see what there was for dinner in
order to choose what was best and to have
time 10 reflect on what his appetite seem
td most to ldncN. one day he Was sitting
III one u1 the little boxes reading his news
paper, Opposite to him sat a gentleman,
a stranger, who was taking his dinner
and was enjoying one of Wimdust's supurh
steaks. IL was a part of Cooper'S CASTRO
n0mical creed that a man must eat mus
tard with his steak. He gently placed
the mustard near him, and calling atten-
tlon to il. he said, politely, "MuStard
sin - The stranger looked up and re-
turned 4 formal "Thank YOU" without
however, taking any further notice of the
mustard. Cooper kept OH reading, but
his mind could not be set ut rest until he
was sure that the barbarism of not using
mustard on steak was nn longer being
pcrpetrated he looked up, and great
was his surprise when he noticed that the
stranger was still not using the mustard
He showed the mustard Il little closer to
the strangers plate, and, raising his voice
said, with rather more decision that be
fore, 'Alustard. SIR There was SOME
thing almost reproachtlll in the tone in
which he urged the claims of the mustard
to recognition, but the stranger needed ii
not. and repeating his formal acknowledge
mont 0i thanks, he went on with his mus
tardless steak. This WAS too much for
Cooper His face redeemed with resent
ment, his phasis he exclaimed in almost
Stentollan voice, as he pushed the mus
tard-dish still closer to the strangers
plate, Mustard, sir !' The stranger
was not Il little puzzled at Coopcl's queer
conduct, and said, "Ihank You, don't
uSranN. At this Cooper lcapcd TO his feet
IN an rNtltcd manner, and with swollen
brow and iii indignant voice he blurtcd
Out, ''Wpll, / he -- if sit in the same
box with man who doesn't eat mustard
with his steakm And he rushed ont ol
the box to the infinite amazemrnt of the
stranger, who probably thought the man
WAS crazy.

HD AhAHhVhsN'eh OPHHbOA 'AhNa
Boston Post: Mr. Hewett has be.
come quite enthusiastic over the idea Of
establishing a corn kitchen at the COM
ing Paris exposition, and he doubtless
tells the truth and speaks whereof he
personally knows when he tells the
contrasting west, and likewise the
whole country, that with a cultivation
OF the foreign taste for our great cereal
its export might become as profitable as
that of cotton This is vein of com
mercial expansion that promises to pay
large returns for working. Miss Kate
Field, not long ago, in letter rom
IIavre, told us of the large increase in
the importation OF Indian corn at
that port within year or two, and
gave the credit of it to the Ameri,
can consul who had succeeded in
persuading q portion Of the French peo'
pie that maize was an excellent substlp
tute for wheat, of which France has
now deficiency Here is good open
ing made, and no occasion could afford
better opportunities of working up the
business than the French exhibition
The French people will all attend this
festival of course, and it is to be pre-"
sumed that they will try American corn
dishes if the opportunity is given them.
We are sure that after experimenting
with the various corn delicacies Of this
Countrywide dodger, the hoe-cake,
iohnny,cake, the green corn fritter,
southern friend corn and the universal
American roasting ear, hulled corn,
mush, hominy, etc.-no Frenchman
will be able to resist this multitorm and
and pressing appeal to that deepest OF
all his motives--his palate. At any
rate tn experiment is well worth try
ing
