"but you'll have to study navigation,
astronomy aud divers other sciences

nothing at the time, but appeared TO
be revolving the difficulties Of the
case in his ruind. Perhaps half an
hour later he remarked, with much
gravity, "Papa, guess | won't be a

TIE Emperor Frances Joseph, of Aus

TIE Emperor Frances Joseph, of Aus
tria, is certainly generous host. He
gave dinner the other day to Prince
Nitka, of Montenegro, and when it was
over escorted his guests out into the park
surrounding the palace. As they stood
there smoking, a beautiful landau drawn
by an equally beautiful pair of horses,
swept up the avenue. The Prince OBJ
served that the harness and panel bore
the arms of Montenegro, whereupon the
Emperor turned and informed his gnests
that the carriage and horses where intend
ed as surprise to him, and begged him to
accept them as souvcnler of his visit to
Vienna. With sparkling eyes the Prince
thanked his host. The dinner which
this episode succeeded was picturesque
one; the service was of solid gold, the
centre pieces being well-known antique
works of art. Prince Nitka wore a
Montenegrin dress, and was quite for
midable from tho small arsenal of knives,
daggers and chased pistols stuck in his
belt. The meal itself barely lasted an
hour, few dishes being the fashion at On
Austrian court dinner-but each dish is
q masterpiece.

A Remarkable Recovery.

The recovery from wound generally
pronounced mortal, and the restoration
Of the organ wounded to healthy action,
occurred in the Ouach1ta country, in the
case pf an eminent citizen who filled the
highest political offices in the State, and
was always regarded as leader of the
dominant political party. We refer to
General Solomon w. Downes, who once
represented louisiana in the United
States Senate. In duel between Gen.
eral Downes and General Morgan-thc

was shot through the lungs. The balls
which penetrated his body carried with
it piece of cloth in which it was the
custom to wrap the balls used in the
old-tashioned rifles. The ball was cx-
tracted, but the cloth remained and pro-
duced inflammation, which gave great
PAIN and distress to the wounded gentle.
man. His lungs, which had been pro-
nounced before he was shot as in a very
unsound condition and had elected the
most gloomy apprehension of his early
decease from consumption, were much
in1amed and irritated by the presence of
this cloth. which had perforated them,
and thus increased and aggravated the
violent coughing to which he had been
subjected. HIS physician thought there
was but little hope of his recovery, and
the general himself made preparations
for the early close Of his mortal career.
One day, in aspasm Of violent cough
ing and copious hemorrhage from the
lungs, the wadding was thrown up, and
carefully examined 'ya surgeon from
this city, who astonished the afflicted gen.
tleman by cheeiiy congratulating him on
the event, as not only rel1ei from a
cause Of great suffering, but al furnish
ing grounds tor the hope and belief Of
the restoration of his lungs to a sound
and healthy condition. And so it prov
ed, for General Downes lived thirty years
longer, and was one of the most active
and conspicuous OF our public men, and
one of the most vigorous and success
tul political and parliamentary speak
ers and advocates in the State.
