The Dukes Of England.

All things considered, the Dukes Of
England, Ireland and Scotland, twenty
eight in number, are decidedly above the
average wenty-eight gentlemen in point

his wife, heiress of the late Mr.. Hope, Of
the great Dutch house. His cousin, the
Duke of Hamilton, having sOwn plenti-
full crop of wild oats, has married sis
ter of Lord Vaudeville and turned over
new leaf. The able.t of English Dukes
is probably his Grace of Devonshire, .
high wrangler of Cambridge, consum-
mate man of business, and perhaps -
much respected by uien of ell sorts and
conditions as it is possible for men to be.
The Duke of Richmond is solid and SEN

A Dinner Of Horse Flesh.

II went on Saturday," writes Paris
given by a NJ. Ducroix Veterinary in
Chief to the Etat Major Of Paris. 1t was
prepared by an ordinary cook, the host
wishing bis guests to know that the food
placed before them owed none of its pal
atable virtues to extraordinary culinary
science. Everything except the sweets
at dessert were Of Chevxline extraction. l
thought the soup better than bullion
made from beef. The boulli was very
toothsome; 'Checal a Ia mode was also ex-
cellent, but the GROWING dish was roast
filet, which vas very tender and succu-
lent. There was no flavor or odor that
in the remotest way reminded one Of the
stable.
1.-THE weak point of the feast was the
salad, which was dressed With oil taken
from horse feet. N. Ducroix was an en-
thusisst, and dreams of nothing less than
chespeninz meat, and rendering the lives
Of horses tolerable BY getting people to
become hippopophagists. 1.-THE ultimate
fate Of the horse was to be sent to the
butchers shamble instead of TO the
Strengthening house, cabmen, he opines,
would he more merciful to the beasts
they drive, and the poor would be sble to
fall back from dear beef and mutton upon
cheaper AID more nusritive meat Since

THE BATTLE. FIELD OF CONTENDING
EMpIREs.- 1t is interesting to note the
way in which great historical events take
place in the same region of the world
from age to age. That part of Asia in
which the Russian and Turkish armies
are now confronting each other is the
battlefield on which the fate Of empires
has been repeatedly staked during thou
sands of years. 1t is the land Of Noah
land over WHICH the ark floated in the
Deluge. Mount Ararat is now the
majestic landmark between the adjacent
confines of three empires-the Persian,
the Turkish and the Russian, q portion
Of whose respective boundaries touch the
mountains base. 1t was from that
region - Mesopotamia - that Abraham
came to 60 into the land Of Canaan. It
was Ut Carrhae-the Biblical Haran,
where Abrsham's father sojourned-thst
the Roman Triumvir, Crassus, was de-
feated with great slaughter by the Par
thians nearly two thousand years ago.
Over and over again the armies of the
great cOnquerOrs have ravaged that
region; and now it is once more the bat
tleield Of contending empires.-N. 7.

Partisan Habits.

The following is an extract from q
Paris letter to the Philadelphia Bulletin: :
When a change of season fOrbids
amusement, Paris Immediately finds its
substitutes. 1t is impossible to think
that amusement is not the ruling idea
here. In fact, the name Of the city
might be utilized in the dictionary % q
common noun. If the name of the
Roman shoemaker, Pasquin, is an ap-
prOpriate synonym for satire and lam
pooh, it should lie equally proper to de-
fine amusement as recreation, pastime,
paris or entertainment.
Every Partisan seeks his evening d.
version with ~ much regularity - he
repairs to his izv1site Resort for dinner.

AdrianOple.

Adrianople is situated at the conflu-
ence of the Tundjs, the Msritza and the
Arda, and is about 1876 miles from Con-
stantinople. Its population has been va
riously estimated at from $4,000 to 140,.
900 inhabitants. According to the most
trustworthy accounts, about half of these
are Turks, thirty thousand Bulgarians
and Greeks, and the remainder Jews and
Armenians. Adrianople was taken BY
the Turks from the Greek Emperors in
1862, and was made the Capital of the
Turkish Empire, remaining SO until Con-
stantinOple was seized in 1853. 1t is
at present virtually an open town. The
old part is surrounded by q wall and con-
tains citadel, but these are now useless
as defenses. Recently more modern
works have been constructed by the
Turks, but these are only Of field or at
most of q provisional type. In the opin-
ion of Won Moltke, the hollow roads,
bitches, and garden walls without the
town afford great facilities for its defence,
and the approaches may be covered by
troops drawn up 80 As to rest upon the
