The Cars Miserable Life.
From the New York SUM-


At one time the late car was prevailed
upon to wear a chain breastplate under
his tunic, but though one of the lightest
kind was made for him he could not bear
its weight, so the expedient was adopted
of causing his tunics to be padded with
cotton wool stepped in preparation
which hardened it, and rendered it, if
not bullet-proof, at least lnife-proof,
and difficult for even bullet to pierce
at long shot. An attempt was made
some time ago to poison the car by
sending him petition covered with
some noxious powder, since which he
ceased to receive letters, papers or petit
tons. For similar reasons he gave up
smoking, though he used to like cigar,
and drank nc wine but from bottles I'M
corked in his presence In the imperial
kitchen the czar's food was prepared by
a French cook who piled all his avoca-
tons under the eyes of two police guards
not that the cook himself could incur
any suspicious, but because some con-
spirators might have got at the ingredi-
ents he was preparing. The food was
always cooked in the simplest way, with
out sauces, and it was tasted by two of
ficials before it was served at the czar's
table. Everything that Alexander IL
ate or drank was tasted in his presence,
and the attendance in the dining room
was performed by servants of tried fidel
ity.
