VICTOR EMMANUEL,
First King of Italy.

1t stood between the high altar and the
altar Of st. Anastasias, martyr, on the
right as the Pantheon is entered. Over
the gateway of the Pantheon was the fol-
lowing inscription:
Itdly, With mothers pride, With a
daughters grtet, duplicates for the great
King, aoho ,oas faithful citizen and q tri-
umphant soldier, the Immortality Of the
righteous and the heroic"
The procession was one hour and hall
in passing given point. The costumes
in the official portion, including the SOL
diery, were magnificent, and the effect Of
the spectacle was heightened by the dis
play Of seventy tattered banners.
The Crown Prince Of Germany, with
representatives from Austria, Portugal,
and Baden, walked abreast.
The effect of the music in the process.
sion was most impressive. The Pantheon
was splendidly decorated as chapelle
ardente, and daylight was excluded by
the star of Italy yelling the roof. The
side chapel of Clement XII. was walled
in and draped with gold and crimson.

Victor Emmanuel's Funeral.

The funeral Of the late King Victor
Emmanuel was very impressive. The
body of the dead monarch was placed on
the funeral car at 0 o'clock in the morn
ing, and the procession started from the
Quirinal about 10. 1t was headed by tit-
teen military detachmeuts, with three
bands, and the clergy bearing tapers. The
car used at the funeral of King Charles
Albert of Sardinia, Victor Emmanuel's
father, was used on this occasion. 1t was
surmounted by the iron crown, the an
cient diadem Of Lombardy Kings, which
was brought from Monza for the occasion.
The car was preceded by Lieutenant Gen
eral Medici, the late Kings First Aide
de-camp, mounted, who bore the Pales-
tro sword, sheathed. The car was sur
rounded by guard of honor and the
special representatives delegated by for
eign courts. 1t was followed by Victor
Emmanuel's favorite horse, ,riderless, mill
tary banners, and guard of honor;
eighteen detachments of civil dignitaries,
Ministers, Senators and Deputies, and
Knights of Annunziata. This part Of
the procession was one mile long. Be-
sides this there were 2,7O0 deputations
from all parts of Italy, numbering each
from five to several hundreds. The entire
procession, except General Medici, was
on foot.
From the Quirinal it moved by the Pi-
azza di Espagna to the Piazza del Popa-
10; thence down the Corso nearly to the
end, and to the Pantheon, where it ar
rived at nearly o'clock. The ecclesias-
tical service was confined to simple abso-
luton, and the benediction was pro-
nounced by Monsignor Gori, arch priest
of the Chapter of the Church. The stone
which is to be placed in the chapel des
tined for the King is simple slab, bear
ing only the words:

A HOME TYRANr.-Fastidiou is
dreadful weapon of domestic tyranny.
Many household can feel the grinding
power of selfshness which disguises itself
under the form Of delicacy of tastes and
habits. Many are the tears of vexation,
anxiety, modification, and dissppoint-
ment, occasioned by the unfeeling tenn
per aud inconsiderate exactions which are
the Legitimate fruit of undue attention to
personal comfort. One must be little OBJ
servant to what is about him if he have not
sometimes been driven by the Ingenious
requisitions of the self-indulgent, to wish
that the hair.shirt, the pulse. .snd-water,
and the finty bed of the anchorite could
be tried for the information of such.
Providence seems often to discipline
these people by increasing the sensitive
ness they have voluntarily induced or
cherished, until it becomes tormenting
want, which nothing in nature is capable
OF allayilg. They are crushed by the gods
their own hands have set up.

INAsMUoH as the marriage festival at
Madrid, on Wednesday, was not disturbed
by the appearance of ex-Queen Isabella,
it may be deemed, in all respects, auspi.
cious. The European Powers, the Pope
and the Orleans family showered con-
gratulations on the royal pair, and wished
them a prosperous reign. The Republi-
cans and adherents of Queen Isabella re-
Trained from any signs of marked dis.
pleasure, end allowed Madrid to enter on
its five days of festivity, without the
slightest protest. In this respect both
parties have acted discreetly, and paid
homage to that sense of chivalry which
still fingers in Spain. The young King
has evidently acted wisely in marrying a
Spanish Infanta, in preference to a for
eign princess. In the present state Of
Europe it would have been impossible for
him to marry into royal house without
occasioning jealousy and distrust such as
precipitatsd the Franco. German war. Ex-
cept in this negative manner the royal al
lance is almost devoid of political signi6-
canoe. 1t ought to strengthen the rels-
tions between the houses of Borboun and
Orleans, but family ties weigh lightly
with either when personal or political in
terests are at stake. The age is past when
relationships, such as exist between the
royal families of Germany and England,
of Portugal and Italy, were pledges of
amity or of alliance.-N. Y. Tribune.

THE London academy cruelty and un,
justly says that the recipe for writing Mr.
Habberton's stories is simple and as fol.
lows: "First saturate your mind with
Bret Harte. Then imagine as characters
a set Of loafing roughs, ever ready to
shoot missionary, help woman, bury
comrade or drop tear over the ace Of
spades. Let the conversation be alter.
nately reckless and garnished with sur.
yivals of evangelical religion. Let your
most abandoned blackguards be ready
to repent at sight of clean shirt, child
or any object reminding them of better
days. BY keeping these rules before
them, most men, women and children
will be able, we think, to compete hope,
fully with Habberton."

Why THERE is NO RAIN IN PERU
In Peru, South America, rain is un-
known. The coast of Peru Is within the
region of perpetual southeast trade
winds, and though the Peruvian shores
are on the verge of the great south.sea
boiler, yet it never rains there. The rea.
son is plain. The southeast trade winds
in the Atlantic ocean first strike the wa
ter on the coast of Africa. Travelling to
the northwest they blow obliquely across
the ocean until they reach the coast of
Brazil. BY this time they are laden with
vapor, which they continue to bear along
across the continent, depositing it as
they 60, and supplying with it the
sources of the Rio de Ia Plata and
the southern tributaries of the Amazon.
Finally they reash the snow. capped An
des; here is wrung from them the last
particle of moisture that very low tenn
perature can attract. Reaching the
summit of that range they now tumble
down as cool and dry winds on the Pa
cifc slope beyond. Meeting with no
evaporating surface, and no temperature
colder than that to which they were sub.
jected on the mountain tops, they reach
fresh vapors, and before, therefore, they
the ocean before they become charged with
have any which the Peruvian climate can
extract. Thus we see how the tops of the
Andes become the reservoir from which
are supplied the rivers of Chill and Peru

A FEW years ago William Cullen Bry.
ant bought his birthplace, and has since
fitted up the old home, enlarging and i'm
proving the house. and putting the land in
as fine state of cultivation as possible.
He has some splendid cattle on his four
hundred acres. Mr.. Bryant, not long ago,
built fire. proof building for free libra
ry, put into it from $4,000 to $4,000
worth of books; built near it librarians g
house, and attached to it some eleven
acres of land, and then expended some
$4,000 in making new road around the
side of hill, for the convenience of the
people.

Sentiment and Railroads.

Sentiment is not apt to entwine itself
about a railroad, though engineers and
fireman do become attached to their en-
gines. Vanderbilt once made mistake
in not recognizing this fact. When he
first took control of the New York Cen
tral Railroad, he ordered all the brass
work to be stripped from the locomotives.
1t was useless expense, he said, to put it
on at all, as it added neither to the
strength or speed of the engine. Then,
too, it was expensive to keep polished,
consuming time, oil, rotton-stone and
rags. The economical manager soon
found out that sentiment played no slight
part in running railroad. The engi-
neers, vexed at the disrobing of their
handsome engines, ceased to care for
them. The tiremen also neglected them.
They looked dingy, grew dirty, and
greasy, and the number laid up for re-
pairs greatly increased. Vanderbilt saw
his mistake, and the brass was restored
to the locomotives, which again became
as tidy in their appearance as the engi-
neers' wives. On the Great Western
Railway, of England, there is broad
gauge and narrow gauge. The broad,
being the original gauge, has the favor of
the old employees, who, like all English
men, are averse to change. An ancient
guard was recently knocked down and
run over by an engine on this line. He
asked to see the company's doctor, who
was sent for, though the injured man was
beyond the remedial skill of a physi-
clan. 81 am glad you came to see me
start, doctor, as | hope, by the up-train, "
said the poor fellow. ~ am only sorry
I can do nothing for you, my good fel-
low, answered the sympathetic physician.
81 know that; tits all over with me. But
there, I'm glad it was not one of them
narrow gauge engines as did it."

An Old Mans Valentine.

"Give me Valentine, Youth
And the old mans cheeks were aglow,
Though staff was In his hand
And his hair was white as snow

The girl love is beyond price.
"One Of the old.fashioned kind,
All sweet with the perfume OF flower;
With dear little simple rhymes,
And two lovers in rosy bowers;
With timid hope and q thought OF tears
That has been my style for fifty years.
"This one will suit her, think.
Her eyes, as these blossoms, are blue,
White as these lilies her hair,
Like this dove, she is tender and true.
Just such Valentiue-smiles and fears
As I've sent her now for fifty years.
"No need for laughing, young men!
But laugh when you're seventy years old,
II the girl you love to-day
Is beloved Of you seventy fold;
Laugh ifyou've had, through fifty years strife,
The wonderful joy Of faithful wife.
"send her Valentine, then,
As Pm sending my wife to-day;
Send her one every year,
Yor that is true lovers way.
God give you, young men, wife like mine,
And you'll send her, know, Valentine!"

CONFERENCE.-THE SILvER.-There is
danger that silver coin will be very ex.
tensively counterfeited, in case the silver
bill passes, for the obvious reason that il
can easily be done with standard silver
and at a profit. Base metal need not be
used at all. The counterfeiter will only
have to copy the Government coins faith.
fully, and he has chance to make profit
the same as the Government does. Both
the authorized aud the unauthorized
coins will be equally good, both being OF
pure silver; the only difference will be
that one is made by law and the other in
spite of the law. If a silver dollar al.
ways contained dollars worth of silver
then the counterfeiter would be obliged
to use alloy, and that would betray the
falsity of the coin in its color and its
ring. But if silver dollar contains only
ninety cents worth of silver, of course il
will pay counterfeiters to make it out oI
pure metal, and derive ten cent profit
on every dollar at that. The complica.
tions of this silver business are many and
curious.-AdsS. PlOughnan.

To LAUNDRY A Brown FoULARD CAM
BRIO DREss.-Have a tub partly filed
with very warm water; throw in large
tablespoonful of powdered borax; wet
only one piece of the dress at time; first
the basque; use very little soap and only
on very soiled places; use board if de-
sired; rinse in clear warm water, then
turn the basque on the wrong side and
starch it in thin starch; when making the
starch add one teaspoonful of powdered
borax to pint of starch; it will prevent
sticking; be very careful not to get any
starch on the right side Of the basque;
hang it to dry in a shady place, and
where the wind can dry it quickly.
While the basque is drying wash the over
skirt in the same way, using the same wa
ter; then, as the underskirt is the most
soiled, wash that last; by this time the
basque is nearly dry; roll it up tightly
for fifteen minutes; have good hot irons
ready; then spread your basque out nicely
on the ironing-table; have bowl of warm
water and clean cloth handy, 80 that
should any starch show on the right side
you may sponge it off; it is best to iron
on the wrong side if possible; iron the
skirt in the same way.

FRUIT SNAPs.-A new industry of con-
siderable extent and importance has
sprung up at Abbeyville, ILL.,, under the
auspices of NJ Legris. Pears, apples and
various other fruits are here passed
through a series of maDipulations by
which they are reduced to paste, which
is then cut up into small cakes about
the size and shape of domino, and
gently dried. When required for use it
is only necessary to pour four times their
weight of boiling water upon them, leave
them in soak for twenty minutes, and
then add sugar to taste, The delicate
flavor of fruits thus prepared is said to
be perfect. No peeling or pulping is
required, and there is 40 waste. Their
cost is not greater than that of an
equivalent of the original fruit, rising and
falling somewhat according to the scarcity
or abundance of the various fruits in
each season. They are accessible at all
times of the year, when the fruit itself Is
not attainable; they keep for any reason"
able length of time, and bear long sea Voy-
ages without detriment- Western Rural.

NEVER FORGET Charge

NEVER FORGET Charge
your mind with Jour duty. That is
largely the true definition of faithfulness.
Bad memory and mistakes are used as
apologies great deal oftener than neces-
sary. A boy beginning business life will
generally lose his place who pleads such
an excuse more than once or twice.
A successful business man says there
were two things which he learned when
he was eighteen, which were afterwards
of great use to him, namely: "Never to
lose anything, and never to forget any.
thing" An old lawyer sent him with an
important paper, with certain instructions
what to do with it.
"But," inquired the young man, "sup-
pose lose it; what shall do then9"
The answer WAS with the utmost EN-.
phasis, "You must not lose itn
81 don't mean to-" said the young man
"but suppose l should happen to7"
"But / say you must not happen to. ]
shall make no provision for any such oc.
currence. You must not lose itl'
This put new train of thought into
the young mans mind, and he found thai
if he was determined to do o thing he
could do it. He made such provision
against every contingency that he never
lost anything. He found this equally
true about forgetting. If certain mat
ter of Importance was to be remembered
he pinned it down on his mind, fastened
it there, and made it stay.

"YoUNG man, can you tell me who's
lecturing here tonight" inquired a
motherly- looking old lady in front of the
Tabernacle last night. The party ad.
dressed, a gentlemanly-looking young
man, made answer as pleasantly as a
bad cold would permit, "Gough." A
panied expression came over the old
lady's face and just shade of indigna-
tion was apparent in her voice as she in
cIined her head forward and demanded
"Who did-what did you sayY" "Gough,
Cough" "G'off! And I've raised six
boys and trained them to be respectful
and polite to their elders, and live to be

Don't.

Don't forget, my girl, that your influ-
uence as woman is great for good or
evil. Upon woman devolves the duty of
training up the future men of the nation
1t is the mother who molds the character:
under her gentle influence the youthful
mind receives its first impressions. In
society she is queen and all men are her
subjects. Therefore she must be careful
in her department BY word or even a
look, she can encourage or etfectually
check all attempts at familiarity. If
women and' especially girls, would do
this-if they would show their displeas.
ure at what they know is wrong-it
it would not be repeated in their pres.
ence. Though the aggressor might feign
anger, in his heart he would feel more
true respect for one who had thus reproved
him than if she passed his fault unre-
buked. And again, don't make yourself
cheap-within the reach of all. Few
young men want anything to do with
cheap young lady. For a wife none but
a fool or rascal will approach such
woman. Cheap jewelry nobody will
touch If he can get any better. Cheap
girls are nothing but the refuse; and
the young men know it, and they will
look in every other direction for life.

Gron rust from the drug store, or let q

The Sprb,af u RcpUblcn accuses THE
Sun Of advocatuga revolution.
This Is a mistake We propose nothing of
the kind We are opposed to revolution.
The good old way of making President
established and practiscd by our fathers
and written in the Constitution, suits us.
We want that, and nothing different. We
arc earnestly opposed to everything rcvolu-
tionary.
The Republican argues that we are in favor
OF a revolution because we insist that the
man should be President who was elected TO
that Office How this can be called rcvolu-
tionary passes our understanding Is the
demand for the Constitution II revolutionary
cry?
On the other hand, the Republican insists
that man shall be President who has not
been elected according TO the Constitu-
ton. This seems to US revolutionary. Ii
it is not revolutionary then there Is no
such thing as revolution II over
turns the Constitution. II changes the
form OF electing or constituting our
chief ruler And this great, fundamental
change Is wrought. not In the manner pro-
vidcd In the Constitution itself for the
amendment of its own provisions but sud-
denly, and in II manner utterly unknown
heretofore. This certainly was revolution.
The creation Of the Electoral Commission
was revolutionary. The placing Of HAYES
in the Office of President through such an
agency was revolutionary If there was, as
the Republican asserts. a compact to abide
by the decision Of the Electoral Commission.
that compact was unconstitutional and
revolutionary.
We have President to-day made by n
form never used, never thought Of before.
Consequently the form Of our Government
the form Of creating our chief rulers has
been changed The old form has been
superseded. A new form has been intro
duccd. There has been revolution.
To this revolution we have been uniformly
opposed. The Republicdn has upheld It..
The Reputation Is rcvolutlonist. THE SUS
T. not. 1t is a revolution in both law and
morals to maintain that fraud can be- sanct-
fed or made binding TO this revolution

and against revolution.
