FAMOUS WEDDINGS AND EERHDE-

| History and tradition have handed
down to us wonderful accounts of the
magnificent ceremopials and gorgeous
lraiment which have signalized the we'd
dings of bygone days, though some of
Ethe high-bo danes Of old have stood
at the altar simply appareled. When
Louis XIII. married Annie of Austria,
her robe was white satin, and her hair
was simply dressed, without crown or
wreath. Isabella of Portugal, as the
bride of Duke of Burgundy, wore dress
ofsplendid embroidery, a stomacher Of
ermine. tight sleeves, cloak bordered
with ermine falling from her shoulders
to the ground; but she had no orna-
ments, and her head-dress was white
muslin. When Ann of France, finding
| the Arehduke MAMMALIAN tardy in his
wooing, gave herself and her dominions
to Charles VIII, she appeared at the
imposing ceremonial of her marriage in
robe of cloth of gold, with designs in
raised embroidery upon it, and bordered
with priceless sable. James l., nearly
ruined himself in order to celebrate the
marriage of his daughter, the Princess
Elizabeth, great and determined was the
opposition shown by his subjects to the
marriage tax he raised to defray the
s53 ,394 it cost. The ceremony took
place at Whitehall with so much pomp
that it has formed the precedent for all
other royal weddings in England which
have followed. The train Of the
brides dress, which was silver cloth,
cost one hundred and thirty pounds.
Her hair Hoated on her shoulders,
intermixed with pearls and diamonds,
and a crown of gold was on her
head. Perhaps, however, the mar
riage of Henry l., with Matilda of Scot
land carries off the palm, as far as out
ward splendor is concerned. Bishop
Anseim performed the eermoney ip pres
ence of all the beauty and chivalry OF
the realm. The marriage of Edward l..
in Canterbury Cathedral, was little less
magnificent. Margaret Tudor, 'wher
married to James of Scotland, stooC
proudly at the altar as her noble lineage
warranted, crown on her head, bel
hair hanging beneath it covered only by
cap of gold, and with pearl about hel
neck. The ill-fated union of Philip ant
Mary was solemnized at Winchester
Cathedral as betitted the soyereigns O.

this comes the announcement that the
Prussian Cabinet with the Crown Prince
at it's head would like to submit to the

even the Turkish question is paling before
the frightful issue that Socialism is pre-

We are informed that large number of
Irishmen of this city have lately organised
themselves into Q committee, in order to accu-
mulate fund for Irish National purposes.
They were led to do this in conseq uenoe of the
receipt Of well authenticated information of
N understanding between leading Irish Ma
tiOnalists and the Russian Government This
agreement will involve the expenditure of q
large sum of money on the part of the Irish
the moment war begins between Russia and
England, and Irishmen are already ut work
throughout the United States, quietly bat rap
idly accumulating the necessary funds. Should
there be no war between Russia and England,
the funds are rot likely to be needed. In that
case the local committees are to apply the fund
to their respective local charities, in suoh a
manner as they may decide. The members of
the committee decline to disclose any further
facts in relation to this matter.

The Rev. Leonard Woolsey Bacon of
New York, has been severely handling the
management of some of the Protestant
Benevolent Societies, especially of thoea
which have recently been holding their
anniversaries. he says that their plan of
organization is such that the society is prsc-
tically nom -existent, as IL never meets and
never acts. The officers of the society are
q close corporation, and irresponsible to
public sentiment, except as they work on
that sentiment by the preparation of q
fulsome official report setting forth their
good deeds. He says that there is so little
voting done by the members of these
societies that the boards of each really
manage the whole thing. and thus perpet-
uate themselves in Office, and that by
skilful manipulation q handful of donors
might come to an election, and possess
themselves of the whole concern. Mr..
Bacon forgets, however, that almost all Of
the societies have saved themselves from
this possible catastrophe by providing that
only one third CT one fourth of the, board
shall retire each year. Skilled manipula-
tors might this year fill with their own
men the places of the members whose terms
expire, but by next year the old managers
could probably wake up sufficiently to
keep things in their own hands as before.

TIE TEMPORAL POWER.

The following remarks of an italian

AMONG THE PAaANs.-Japan seems to be
a country where men never lose their tenn
per, where women and children are always
treated with gentleness, where common
laborers bow and beg pardon of each other
if they jostle each other accidentally, where
popular sports do not inflict suffering on
the lower animals, whore paper screen is
a sufficient protection against all intrusion,
even that of burglars, and where cleanli-
ness takes such q high rank among social
virtues as to be carried almost to ludicrous
excess. Japaneee manners are certainly
very different from our own but the
Japanese are athoroughly we'll bred people.
"Manners are not idle )" urbanity, gentle
ness and consideration for others are not
superficial qualities; when such national
characteristics are found com bined with
courage, energy and intellect, they may
surely be accepted az evidence of an sd-
vanced civilization. Foreigners, after liv-
ing in the interior of Japan for q consider
able time, on returning into ''civilized
society,"" have even stated that the manners
of their own countrymen appear to them
vulgar and almost brutal, accustomed IS
they have become to a courtesy singularly
free from servile or mercenary considers

British invention of torpedoes and torpedo

marine traveller of this sort is 100 feet long,
shaped like fish, and propelled by q tail

head, provided with an electric light, show the
mariners anything in the course for o long dis:
tance. The gun in the nostril is rotatory, hav-
ing four chambers like the spokes of o wheel,
and while one is fred, 9 second is sponged, .
third cleaned, and a fourth loaded. This odd
fish is a jack at-sll-trades; it Is to intercept
clads, and in addition to its gun has a formids-
BILE beak or ram. The explosive is not ordinary

be to neutralize and beat tOrpedoes.
