A Queen as a Circus Rider.

Tie ex-King and Queen of Naples
live at the Hotel vouiliement. in Paris,
in the Rue Boissy d'Anglais life Of
perfect soclnsion. Tho King cares only
for two things-frst, his crown, which
he still fondly hopes to regain, and
secondly. his corsOrt, whom he wor-
ships and whose every within and caprice
he humors and obeys. He himself cares
little or nothing about horses, but as
the Queen, like her sister, the Empress
OF Austria, adores horseflesh, his
Msjesty is ever ready to give any price
for the best cattle. The life of these
royal exiles is tedious and monotonous
enough. Tue King spends his days,
VIXEN he is not with the Queen, reading
or debating to his secretaries. fondly
imagining that he is really the head of
a party, and that the few Italian noble
men who gather round him care more
for the success of his cause than for the
pecuniary assistance he may afford
them. His Majesty willeometimes die
tate or write far into the night, walking
mp and down the room in feycrish
state OF excitement, and, at length, when
rosy-fingtred dawn begins to spread
her palms in the sky, going to bed to
dream OF q triumphant return 20 the
throne of his father Bomba. The Queen
has nothing to occupy her time bat her
toilet AMI her horses. She will have
her, hair dressed four times doy to
kill time, and keep five maids, although
she does not receive, and goes nowhere
save to her sisters, the Dachess d'Alen-
con. Her great pleasure, however, is
riding, and she is even finer horse
woman than the Empress of Austria.

Haydn's Last Symphony.

A lady writer in the Morning Star,
giving some interesting sketches Of the
great composers, relates these impress
sive anecdotes of Joseph Haydn IL his
famous symphonies. Haydn is bes.
known by his immortal oratorio, the
Creation" whose composition occu-
iied him ten years. vi one of his SYM
phonies, write. during his service Of
thirty years for Prince Esterhazy, the
following tory is told. The Prince,
in tit of economy, resolved to dis
miss his orchestra. Haydn wrote a
farewell symphony
The music began as farewell dirge
very solsmnly. Suddenly the drummer
stopped; shut his book, sIutfed out
his candle and left the orchestra. In q
moment the hutist did the same the
trombone man soon folio wed. Then
another snuffed out his candle and left !;
then another, till only one violin wa.
left playing. The Prince took the hint
and retained his musicians.
After Haydn became too old aud fee.
bic to conduct his orchestra at Vienna,
he was carried to the concert-room to
hear one Of his symphonies for the last
time.
When it was over hc bowed to the
audience, and, turning to the must
clans, spread out his thin hands and
blessed them in the earnest Gsr-
Elan fashion, with trembling voice and
fearful eyes.
Soon after this the war between
Franco and Austria began, and clouds
Of powder and smoke filled his little
suburban cottage in the outskirts of
Vienna, where, on tho 3lst OF Max,
1909, the old composer lay dying.
Creeping from his bed he sat once
more at his instrument and sang bold
ly and clearly the Austrian national
hymn. On the last notes, the voice
trembled and died away. The roar of
the cannon sounded louder and louder,
but tie old musician heard it no more.
With the dying notes OF GOA Save the
Emperor" the brave and gentle spirit
had passed away.

This pin through the slab is made to

feet long, rounded off at one end for

when the iron pin is placed in the slot

and butter is placed upom the slab, the
lever is brought down square upon it,
and the buttermilk is easily pressed out.
This is straight downward pressure,
and there is no occasion for allowing
the lever to slip upon the butter. This
lever is easily handled by woman,
who can work the butter from twenty
cows with greater case than that from
three to five cows with tho hand ladle.

worker is easily kept clean, and affords
room for working twenty-five pounds
Of butter ut once. The butter is usual
ly taken from the churn, placed upon
the worker, and one ounce of pure salt
to the pound worked in evenly, but
with as little working as needful fof
this purpose. The butter is then placed
in pail, covered and set ia cool place
till the next day, that the salt may be
dissolved. 1t is now placed again up
on the worker, and the little remaining
buttermilk worked out, when it is
packed in pail or tub to remain. The
butter is turned over upon the worker
with the hand ladle, and there is no ne
cessity for touching the butter with the
hand. Twenty-Five pounds may be
worked in q few minutes, and will not

Another Real Romance.

The following story has come to the
hearing of the Atlanta (Ga Constitu-
ton:
MANY years ago there was a young
fellow named Bigelow sent by his father
to Yale College. The father was very
rich, and the youngster lived in grand
style at the university. Suddenly the
old gentleman broke, aud had to with
draw his son from college. The boy,
however, felt the necessity of an edu-
cation. and determined to have one
anyhow. He therefore went to work
to learn trade as q machinist. While
he was at work his old associates cut
him, and refused to have anything to
do with him. The young ladies', with
whom no had been u favorite, failed to
recognize him when they met him. One
day, when going from his work, he
met wealthy young lady who had been
his friend. He had his tin dinner
bucket over his arm, and supposed she
would cut him as oil the rest had
done.
"She smiled pleasantly. addressed
him as Tom, and insisted that he
should call and see her as he had always
done. She said: There is DO change
in you as far as am concerned The
year rolled on. The young workboy
became immensely wealthy, and is now
the Mayor of New Haven, with an in
come OF 100000 a year, and the owner
of factory in which $500 men. and
women are employed. The young girl
grew to womanhood and married. Her
husband borrowed a large sum of money
from Mr.. Bigelow, and died before he
had paid it, leaving his family with
little property. Mr.. Bigelow sent her,
with his coincidence. receipted note
for her husbands indebtedness, and now
the son of Mr.. Bigelow, the millionaire,
is going to marry the daughter of the
one woman who was faithful and true
to the young workboy at college,"

TALLEYRAND's CHARACTER.--Wh
Prince Metternich was serving as Aus
TRAN ambassador at the Court Of the
Tuileries, he was frequently brought
into contact with the famous Talley-
rand, whose portrait is sketched in the
Princes Memoirs as follows:
Talleyrand possessed unusual intel
lectual ability. My long-continued re-
lations with him made me aware that
his whole character more adapted him
to destroy than to create.
A priest, his temperament led him to
irreligious courses.
OF noble birth, he pleaded for the
uprooting of his class; under the Re-
publican rule, he forswore the Repub
lie under tie Empire, he was constant
~ inclined to conspire against the em-
peror; under the Bourbons, lastly, he
labored for the overthrow of the legit-
innate dynasty.
To hinder any dc fnate course from
being taken-for that Talleyrahd was
always ready.
In the contrary direction I could
never discover equal ability. Napoleon
so estimated him, and with justice.
In one of our conversations, which
took place in consequence of one Of the
many Withdrawals Of Talleyrand from
tho ministry, the emperor said to me-
"If want any thing done, I do not en-
ploy the Prince of Benevento. turn
to him when want thing not to be
done which I wish to appear to want"
ARunE OF EI1zASnra's T1xE.-The
London Graphic says: "Every boy and
girl in Elizkbeth's time had to learn q
trade or calling, and the male remained
in apprenticeship till "a, and the female
till 81. Now, in manufacturing towns
especially, lads 60 into the iron works
and factories and earn ct 10, nine or
ten shillipgs week. At II or 10. they
are without skill in any ono thing.
When depression in trade comes they
are helpless to do anything, and look
to soup-kitc hens and charity to support
them and their wretched offspring.
They are notthe bort that any emigra-
ton agent will accept. In the two or
three years Of deep depression in trade
thr augh which We, passed, thousands
of our genuine workingmen have
carried to America or the colonies the
stamina and general liability which
have placed the British workmen fore
most In The ranks OF international la
bor."

4 PTRufytNT PATTY

We observe a little Impotence on the part OF
orr Democratic friends at the continued exist
ence of the Republican party when the rca-
son for its being has disappeared. The cX-
pcctation was that it would be n shOrt-livcd
marty because 1T was devised for a special
"and Temporary purpose which has been fully
GaccompIished" and did not "grow up like per-
"mancnt parties, out Of abiding elements Of
"hnman naturen There is some truth in this.
The love of place and power being the "ahid-
cling element of human nature out of which
the Democratic party grew and from winch II
derives its pcrmancnce, that organization may
No rxpcctcd to continue without our special
wonder 1t is true, also, that IT'S great rival did
not root itself in any such abiding CLEMENT
but was devised for the special and temporary
purpose of opposing the extension of slavery,
and has fully accomplished that purpose. And
uerhaps the question of our Democratic friends
who are rifle impatient ut the suprrlluous
tagging of the opposition after they have done
their work il not unnatural. just so the mem
bers Of mob that has been scattered and put
down by the police inquire why the police their
nurpose having been accomplished, do not dis
band.
The notion did obtain TO limited extent
few years ago that the Republican party.
having done the work for which it was organ
lied, might as well step down and let the
Democracy, who were clamorng foI adminisIa
five reform and the restoration of peace and
good feeling between the sections, come in and
establish pnrity and peace. In the experience
of the country following partial trial OF tins
cvrcrimcnt we believe our friends will find Il
very satisfactory answer to their inquiry why
fine Rcrublican party cOntriycs to lngcr after
is work its done. 1t has 10 longer to be sure,
the slave power to oppose III It's efforts TO extend
itself over new territory, nor any assured
enemy to put down Ill the field that the Nation
may or saved. But there remain some odds and
ends of that great controversy which arc not yet
settled, and winch experience teaches us cannot
safely be left to the Democratic party to be
taken care Of There is the matter of con-
filming the liberties o. the black men made
free. and their protection III the use OF the only
,vaonon rivcn them for the maintenance of
their freedom, the ballot. 1t has been found
that the Democratic party cannot be trusted
with that work.
Then there IS the payment OF The National
debit and preservation Of the National credit.
7, has been found that the Democratic party
coud not be trusted on these points that 80
soon as they got the opportunity they trlled
and blundcred in financial legislation to such a
degree as to impair seriously the credit of the
Nation and tend to the reputation, partial or
complete, of the debt. The Republican party
fingers on the stage ut the commend Of the peO-
pie to cary out these two great and essential
details of the work devolved upon it by the ex-
ecu..;9n Of its original purpose. These are
