scraped an acquaintance with the
Princess Suvaroff at AK. She be-
ing short of money for her hotel
bill, asked him to lend her $4,000
francs, and mentioned to him the
hours when she was at home. He
called on her, and was not received
as amiable as he expected, though
he comported himself with the re-
serve and delicacy which a man
who had, Under the circumstance
related, become the creditor of SO
great a lady, owed to her. His
only object in visiting her was to
assure her that his purse was at her
service. The princess, in a few
days, quilted AK and went to Lau-
same, when M. Delalage again met
her. He asked for the $4,000
francs. She wrote to him to apollo
gize for nonpayment, and alleged
that her affairs had been deranged
by the war. Other correspondence
and another loan followed. Prom
ise of gracious civility was given in
the princess manner before she
drew the money; but when Delalage
renewed his calls, the servants were
instructed to treat him as an i'm
Fortunate dun. Finally the prin-
cess emigrated to America. NJ. De-
lalage wrote to her mother, the rich
Madame Bazilevsky, who resides at
st. Petersburg in winter, and at
Orienbaum in summer. No answer
being returned, he brought his
grievance before the civil tribunal.
The letters the illustrious debtor
wrote at Lausanne were read in
court, This small vengeance was
the only satisfaction the amiable
NJ. Delalage obtained: '0u il NY a
rien, lie Roi perd ses droits.' The
smart princess had made over all
her seizable property in France to O
relative, in the enjoyment of he,
confidence"
The princess is now at the Wind.
sor Hotel, in this city. She has
gone comparatively little into soci
ETY., although her friends have
| pressed her TO do SO. AT the Char
ity ball she engaged one of the
prOscenium boxes and made every
preparation for coming, but wal
prevented by a sudden attack o
illness. At the Liederkranz mas
querade at the Academy of Music
her magnificent diamonds attracted
general attention. Her friend
deny the report of her separatio,
from her husband, and say that th
latter IS still with the army in Tur
key. The statements in regard t,
her financial difficulties in Franc
are also contradicted.
The princess is about forty year
Of age, and. of commanding pres
: ence. Her complexion is a pal
blonde. She lives very quietly a
the Windsor, and though frequent
ly invited to mingle more in tn
social life Of upper tendon, has g.
far confined her visits to her init
mate friends. She does not expec
to remain in America more than
few weeks longer, and would hay
sailed for home sooner but for tb
tempestuous weather. The princes
is accompanied by her nephew, tn
Count Kalouvrat.

The editor OF the New England Farmer
has been up in Vermont relating his ex-
perlence upon twenty-five acre farm: q
rather poor farm when he began upon it;
not SO good as the better sort of land in
Vermont. After full story, the question
was plsmpIy put to him, whether on the
whole, his farming paid, and Mr.. Cheever
thus replied; Il have bought my farm
and paid for it by farming, and it had to
pay" He has doubled the number OF his
herd in five years, and he sells his butter
now for what he calls fancy price, but
believes that with butter at forty cents.
farming on ordinary land in Vermont
would do better. The theory OF Mr..
Cheever is that farmers run over too much
land, that they do not fertilize enough.
and that they do not take pains enough
to grow two crops in a season The les.
son is, that upon any ordinary New Eng.
land land, industry and good Judgment
will enable a man to improve Lis farm,
year by year, and make something NOR,
than living. Mr.. Cheever said NOTHING
about corn as a crop, because he keeps a
dairy and depends upon hay. rye and
corn cut early mainly for his success
miliet Is sown also, and he feeds som,
gram. The result is, that the farm keep
one animal, more or less, according t,
circumstances, for every acre. This j.
