The Duchess of Marlborough, says the
Boston Advertiser, now the first lady
in ireland, likes poplins, but her exam
pie is lost upon her sister. American
ladies once drank no tea, out Of political
spite, and the ladies Of Lima give their
last golden ring to keep up the fight
against Chill little longer. But no
political, patriotic, or national sentiment
can induce Irish ladies to wear poplin,
or to have their uphostering done with
the best and almost only dress material
produced in Ireland.

The Prince Of Diplomats.

Reclined on q rich velvet fauteuil, or
on chaise Tongue, NJ. De Talleyrand-
his flowing curls, now powdered and
scented-would listen in silence, and in
kind Of cats sleep, to the lively chit
chat Of the ladies' grouped around him,
who cared more to amuse him than to
amuse themselves. 1t is singular that
one known to have been habitually so
silent man should have left reputa-
tion for brilliancy in the social circle.
From his habit Of nearly closing his
eyes-a habit that grew upon him as he
advanced in years-he could scarcely
have appeared even an attentive or in
terested listener. His drooped cyelids
and the smile on his face would rather
seemingly have indicated mind oocu-
pied with some dreamy thoughts Of its
own. Yet when, occasionally, half ris-
ing from his seat, or changing his posi-
tion, he opened his eyes on the company,
with o glance full of malice, but not Of
illnature, and uttered some piquant re-
mark or amusing bon mot, (Which he
had, doubtless, been meditating) he gave,
in few words, concentrated reply, as
it were, to the whole conversation. And
usually it was so fit, so appropriate, that
it fixed itself in the memory of its hear
ers; unlike the wprdy defamation
which, as a noise in the air, floated away
from Mime. De Staels admiring audi
ence, without leaving trace of its
meaning in the mind. How
little has been recorded of Talleyrand's
conversation that is not in the form of
an epigram or bon mot Even in dip
lomatic conference he spoke very little
His colleagues guessed his opinions,
rather than learned them from his
words. And he never would argue;
but after listening with an approving,
almost deferential air--as though thank
fully receiving inforniation--he gave his
opinion on the question at issue; al
ways, however, in the fewest words pos
sible, and generally, as was deemed the
perfection of cautious and ruse diploma
cy in that day isnd the practice may
even in these virtuous times be not
wholly extinct in form that admitted
by straining of terms, Of some differ
ence in explanation, should he after
wards think it expedient to alter his
views Even in his own private circle
he would play at whist or billiards and
he was fond Of both---for hours without
uttering word that was not
strictly required by the game.
He revived at his receptions the old
French fashions Of suppers--and they
were suppers at which Brillat-Savarin
often assisted. Talleyrand never par.
took of them; but it was then he most
usually departed from his silent system
and shared in the sprightly causerie of
his guests. On these occasions Nine
Grant, who, less strict in her regime
than Talleyrand, enjoyed the supper i'm.
meaSely, was accustomed to indulge in
her most brilliant sallies Simpleton, as
she was reputed be, her remarks We're
often sufficiently singing to bring two
or three notes to Tallcyrand next morn
ing, inquiring whether such and such OBJ
servations made by Nine. Grant had not
been made avec intention. Temple Bar.

addressed TO them by parties in
Leavenworth. Kansas:
MONTREAL, Canada, Sept. %, 80.
DEAR SIRs: i expect December,
0atter part), January, and March
will give us most snow, December
and January the greatest cold. Feb
ruary looks warm, and snow may
rapidly disappear during that month.
An early Spring. Ice crop good.

DEAR SIRs: L expect tremendous
snOw-ialls as far to the southwark
as Washington, ID. g., and westward
beyond Chicago, toward the end OF
December and New Years, and
again in proximity to the Sth and
9Th of January.
Very wintry weather, with snow,
here this week. Yours truly,
HENRY G.. VENNOR.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 81. 1880.
GENTLEMEN: Since the
current year is the commencement
OF a period of more than unusual
disturbances, which will not attain
its maximum until the end of 1882,
therefore my opinion is that the
coming Winter will be cbaractri ized
by great and sudden change in
atmospheric pressure, and, conse-
quently, by heavy precipitation
that is, heavy rains in the South and
heavy SHOWS i'm the North, with gen
orally extreme low temperature.

John III TICF.
