How A Pn1ycEss LIVES. The posi-
ton of the Princess Of Wales is too OK
halted a one to permit OF much social
endowment, vet has not the splendid
potentiaheies Of reirning royalty. The
Princess. too. is peculiarly unostenta-
tious. and evidently finds the magnificent
loneliness Of her position an actual trial.
To BE- young and beautiful, aud idolized,
and vet to be shut ont from most forms
OF social amusement, can be by no means
delightful Yet there are, Of course,
very few houses, even among those OF
the higher nobility, to which the Princess
of Wales can go as an invited guest. And
when she does 60 an awful state hedges
her around. She is passionately fond of
dancing, yet no gentleman can ask her
20 dance. She it is who signals out the
parsonage whom she desires as a partner,
and when she stands up to dance, all
other dancers must sit down. After
circling around the room some half q
dozen timol, she pauses and sits down to
rest, and then the remainder OF the
walters may take turn, but as soon as
she stands up again they must stop.
This solitary Grand Lama kind Of per-
Torrance cannot be very amusing to this
kindly, gentle, amiable lady. She is, |
am told, most accomplished dancer
despite her lameness. But of all the
recreations of her life, she most enjoys
driving in the park. In her little victo-
ria, with her dame-de-campagnie beside
her, she is FREQ to enjoy the testimonials
OF affection and enthusiasm that meet her
everywhere, and no one that notes the
gracious smile and bow wherewith she
returns every salutation can doubt her
delight at her own popularity. -lLondon |

The Rev. Joseph Cook said in London

this beSrays his lamentable ignorance,

now before the public for senator, we ara de-
oidealy in favor Of Governor j. w. Throek-
