BORN BALLET DANCERS,

From the Cincinnati Gazette, Paris Letter.l
The master of the ballet will tell.
you artistic dancing is a vocation. and
il is as necessary for a disciple OF
EerpslchOre to be bern with chere-
graphic facilities and talent as a sing
er with good flexible cords in her
larynx, and natural ability to cult
vate them. Ballet girls hail from all
states OF society, but principally from
the lower ones; the light-headed
seem also 10 be the most light-footed.
Every concierge cobbler, or even rag
picker i'll Paris, who is blessed with
a daughter, fires his ambition up with
the hope of seeing his girl one day
on the boards of some of the mumer-
Gus t%hreaters of Paris. AS | have
said before, III II of my letters, the
French are a theater-going people,
and when the illiterate poor have
their eyes feasted with one of the
wonderful spectacular plays, they
yearn to have them nearer their
hearts and homes, and so offer to IA
manager of a theatre the services OF
the Anastasie, who, in her tender
years, plays the part of a FREELY or n
bird of some bright plamage, and
thus enters into glory through small
door, to be sure, but which, with
some feminine management, may lead
to easily-acquired riches if she be
handsome only, and fane and wealth
if she add talent to beauty. Most all
of these little creatures are born as
smart as steel traps ; they are piquani
and spirited without learning; they
may never have learned to sign theil
own names, but en- recanche, they
have repartees for which Il Journalist
would be willing to cudgel his brain
all night SO rs to have something as
original and witty for his morning
paper. Many of them reach tn,
pinnacle of what they call fame, be
cause they are gifted with Il Certain
CHIC of mind or body, just as a do.

A Romantic Royal Marriage.

The marriage of the Empress of Rus
sis was almost a romance. In 1881
when the present Car was twenty
three years of age, list was prepared
at st. Petersburg of manageable Ger
man princesses, and under the care of
Count Orloff the CzareYitch went to
visit them. He had been to Berlin and
the the courts of North Germany, and
was on his way to Carlsruhe when he
arrived at Frankfort. The Prince was
about TO resume his journey when he
received an invitation from the Grand
Duke of Hesse-Darmstsdt to dine at the
palace of Darmstadt. AS a matter of
courtesy only the invitation was &C.
cepted, and after dinper the court ad-
journed to another room for tea. There
the Russian Celebs In search of wife
saw young lady OF sixteen, accompa-
MED by her governess, whose appeal
ance was SO charming by its simplicity
that he inquired who she was. The
Princess Mary was the daughter of bis
host, but her name was not on the St.
Petersburg list. Presently the royal
and imperial personsges proceeded to
the drawiDg-room, where Alexander
asked to be presented to the attractive
girl, and long conversation confirmed
his first impressions. Next morning
Count OrlOff informed the Prince OF
the arrangements for proceeding to
Baden. my dear count" said the
grand duke, 1--WE shall go DO further
1 have made my ch uce, my journey is
flushed" Orloff had moi. suspected
how matters stood and expostulated.
The Princesses of Baden had not been
seen and the name of the Princess Mary
of Hesse was not on the list. Alexan-
der would go to Carlsrube if polIteness
required it, but he had made up his
mind to mary none other than the
Princess Mary. When the news reach
ed st. Petersburg the entOurage of the
Emperor endeavored to prevent this
marriage; but Nicholas was tenderly at
tached to his son and would not allow
him to be thwarted in an affair of the
heart. An old diplomatist, the Count
de Reiset, tells this story in his unpub-
llshed memoirs. The Czlrevitch mar
ried the Princess Mary few montl Q
later. Eleven years after this the same
writer saw the CzsrYna at Krasnoe-Selo,
watching through the palace window
the first guard of her eldest son at the
door OF her grandfather's palace.
Heavy rain was falling; the little fell
low had put on a big soldiers cloak,
in which he marched to and fro with
difficulty, and the mothers heart was
anxious about the exposure Of her first
born. Thirteen years later still, and
all the careful nursing of the Empress
did not suffice to saYe the life of this
same son, who died at Nice, after put
ting his brothers hand in that OF his
own betrothed, the Princess Dagmar,
of Denmark.

SPANISH POINT.
Ch -racieristles of the Finest Lncs of
Valencia and Audalusia.

The real Spanish point work-raised
and htt-closely resembles Vvuesian
point. The impulse of this sumptuous
lscework seems TO have been given first
through the Moorish embroideries, for
which the Spanish Arabs occupying the
kingdoms of Valencia, MuTc,s and Az
dulasiI during the middle ages were
famous, and then through tht school of
embroidery established by Philip III. in
the convent of the Escurial toward the
end of the sixteenth century, and -four
ishipg after the expulsion of the Morris
cos in 1910, where exquisite needle
work was wrought under the direction
of Fray Lorenzo oil Monserrate and
Diego Rutimer, after the designs of
Tibaldi and other great psiRtera. The
irtiuence of this school explains the
superiority Of design in point laces of
Spanish origin. The scroll work of or
namented fisur de lis, scanthus leaves
aad connecting stalks shows far more
graceful and easier lines than may be
observed in Venetian point. Ibis work
was restricted to q few nunneries and
practiced there almost exclusively for
the adornment Of the innnmerable
churches, saints and priests, but very
little used for profane dress, as conten
porary potraits show. Admirable spsci-
liens of this gorgeous point are pre-
served In the Cathedral of Toledo,
where q complete set of vestments and
altar fronts, richly embroidered and
trimmed with lace, exists for every one
of the principal fessts Of the year.
A beautiful specimen OF Spanish rails
ed point, exhibited at the South Ken
sington Museum, consists of chasuble,
stole and maniple, with q corporal or
small square to place the sacrsmentsl
cup upon. Nothing can surpass this
priceless lace IN beauty of design, mar
Yelous workmanship and mstchless pres
ervatlon, and the cost, e200, for which
the treasure was purchased, must te
considered very moderate. Scarcely
any other old point has been so fire.
quently initiated as Spanish raised
point. The flowers and stalks were
either formed with tape or braid, or cut
out from solid linen, the out lines but
tonholed and the raised parts sewn on.
These limitations are a mockery of the
old work and are valueless. Some
times pieces occur more or less skilful-
ly made up of detached flwers and
stake; they are the most valuable to
the collector, as they frequently contain
fragments of point work made at diff
ferent periods and in localities widely
apart. Flat Spanish point has the ap-
pearauce of unfinished raised point,
with the relief work omitted. Speci-
mems are scarce.

'sBehold, now is the acceptable time,
now the day OF salvation" We are
now entering on the holy season Of
Lent--a season which many are accus-
toned to regard with feeling akin to
repugpance. The prospect of the pri-
vstion OF many things dear 70 fissh and
blood that are forbidden during the
penitential time is naturally q little
dreary; but, looked at from the true
standpoint and the point Of view from
which faith and the church regard IL,
its approach ought to be hailed not only
with cheerfulpess but even gratitude.
That we may be the better disposed 10
enter upon this holy season, il Is well
that We should consider what is the
Church's ctIog on tie doctrine Of
sssatisfaction, of which the practices
of Lent form . specisl feature. and also
the grounds on which this belief Of the
Church is founded. Il is an article OF
holy faith that sin can be pardoDed
only through the merits of the suffer-
ings of our Lord. These merits are va
riously applied, according TO the diff
ferent circumstances in which we haTe
offended. The guilt Of or ginai sin is
remitted BY the applications Of the mer-
its OF Christ In the sacrament of bap-
tism, after which nothing more remains
to be done in expIstiOn Of this sin, -
its guilt was contracted without any
wiIful trsnsRression on our part. But

The Rockport Transcript boots the
idea that Texas will refuse to support
Bayard for the Presidency because
of his financial resolution. In this il
insists that his opponents will be wo-
fully mistaken, and In support OF
its opinion it adduces the same
points, often referred to by the
STATESMAN, regarding thelate contest
in the sixth congressional district.
1t reminds US that this contest was
conducted even under more unfavors-
BILE circumstances towards hard money
than now exists, but it was then shown
that the people of the district are
thoroughly IN accord with the Demo
cratic theory OF hard money. The
Transcript says:
When Senator Coke and his sup
porters presume to ostracise Bayard in
Texas, on account of his firm adhesion
to that doctrine, which has always
been an immutsble principle in the
Democratic platform, they touch of q
mine, whose explosive force is liable to
shatter and destroy its originators.
We believe Senator Coke TO be an able
man and ambitious for his own reputa-
ton and the good Of the State to which
he gives his allegiance, but the people
can not be cajoled into believing that
Bsyard possesses cloven foot, after
having unyieldingly devoted the best
part of his life to constitutional liberty,
merely because be now refuses to veer
like 3 westhercock, with every financial
heresy that blows upon Congress.
