the courtyard is a tremendous piece OF
artillery, with bore of three feet, famil-
iarly known as the pocket-piece of the
Tzarina. In the same court are French
and German cannon, captured In 1872,
and also Turkish and Persian guns.
The churches III the palace court are
of modern dimensions, and plain out
wardly, but within there is dazzling pomp
and glare. A multitude of saints are
painted on the walls, and classic phil
osophers and historians as well-Thucy-
dides and Plutarch in company with SIS.
Anthony and Jerome. There are said
to be 2,300 figures altogether. In the
Cathedral of the Archangel Michael, in
stead of saints are large frescoes of
Heaven, He'll and the Judgment. On
the floor, arranged in rows, are the sar-
cophagi of the early Tzars, from Ivan I,
to Alexis, father of Peter the Great. In
the middle of the church in a splendid
silver coffin, is the body of lad, believed
to be that of the young Demetrius, the
last prince of the race of Rurik, who was
put to death by Boris Gudonof. The
lid of the coffin is open, and on the inner
side is a portrait of the boy studded with
Jewels. Visitors are expected to kiss the
forehead.
In the House of the Holy Synod is
preserved the robes worn by the Russian
Pariarchs during the last 900 years.
The holy oil is preserved in thirty-three
jars. About two gallons a year are
necessary to supply Russia.
The secular palaces of the Kremlin are
plain without and magnificent within.
The especial splendors in gold, jewels
and marble are in the grand hall of st.

Relic of the vikings.

The oaken hull of vessel supposed to
date from the time of the old Vikings Ct
the North, was recently discovered
while digging tumulus near Frederick
stadt, in Norway. It was rather fat and
low in the water, tapering to point at
eacl end, with length of of keel of A
feet. and breadth of beam of 13 feet.
Tt is supposed to have been used as
war vessel for coast service, being pro-
PEELED by oars and sails. An ancient
practice in, Norway was to place the
vessel over the remains of its captain,
and fragments of dress, horse aceoutre-
ments, and harness have discovered un-
der this. This is deemed quite O prize
for the archseologists, and the entire
lot is to. be placed in the Antiquarian
Museum at Christiania.

GATHER RIPE FRUITS, o DEATH.

Take thy shadow from my threshold,
o thou dweller in the night;
Standing right across my doorway,
Shutting out the morning light.
Thou hast been here in the autumn,
And hast taken all thy sheaves,
II is not time 10 gather
The blossoms and the leaves
Oh, press not in so closely
To the baby at my breast,
Wouldst thou take the tender nursling
From the shelter of its nest?
Oh child, he is no playmate
For such a one as thee;
He smiles, and stretches towards him
What can the baby see?
All! close behind the shadow
He sees the angel wait,
And wide the leaves unfolding
OF that broad heavenly gate.
And he seeth one who beckoneth,
Poor heart, couldst thou but see,
Those golden gates unfolding
And thy lost ones waiting thee.
Yet colder falls the twilight,
And the children crouch behind,
AS the garments past them rustling
Sweep like the winter wind.
But the baby smiles and watcheth,
And when the night grows dim
There will be an empty cradle
And q breaking heart for him.

Life of Adventure.

The life of Mary Ann Talbot, a
daughter of the Earl OF Talbot, was one
of remarkable adventure. Born in
London, on February 2, 1779, she was
well educated at the expense of her
father. When only about fourteen she
was induced to run away from school by
a Captain Bowen. She went with his
regiment to the West Indies, served
afterwards as a drummer at the siege of
Valenciennes, where the Captain was
killed, and the intrepid girl left friend
less She contrived to leave the coast,
and shipped as a boy on French
privateer. This vessel was captured by
one of the ships of Lord Howe's fleet,
and, the opportunity being open to her,
Mary Talbot entered the British navy.
She served in many actions, was several
times a prisoner of war, and finally, In
1876, when suffering frcm shattered
leg, was commissioned a midshipman
and discharged. Subsequently, Queen
Charlotte granted her pension OF E2O.
When recovered of her wounds she went
to America, working her way hither as
steward of a merchant ship, on board OF
which, it is said, she was obliged to re-
veal her sex. After q long absence,
little being known of her exploits in the
mean time, she again appeared in Lon
don. From this point her subsequent
life was one of great wretehedness and
poverty, and she was frequently in New
gate undergoing Imprisonment for debt.
Out of prison she assumed variety Of
characters, being sailor, actress, peddlel
and footpad by turns. The date of hel
death is unknown.

AMERICAN GRIT.
my part.

The New York Herald says: Captain George
Butler is fine specimen of American manhood
He fought very bravely in the war between the
North and the South, and was severely wounded
at Gettysburg, losing his right arm. He now re-
sides at Rome, and is painter by profession. He
is as clever with the sword as with brush, not
withstanding that he has only his left hand avail
able Captain Butler the other day, was walk
ing out with brother artist, also an American
Buffers friend. Captain Butler said, "Do not
answer him, for he is tipsy," and Immediately re-
ceived slap in the face. A challenge followed
The antagonists met at quarter past five on the
afternoon Of the 18th, at spot outside Porta
Cavaleggiera. They were attended by their re-
long Italian rapers, terrible weapons in the hands
of strong and skillful men, being very thin, and
sharp at the point as razor. They penetrate with
wonderful facility, and rarely used in dues I'M

an Italian officer and is employed in the Govern
ment Tobacco Department. He wears eyeglasses
Although an excellent fencer, and possessing the
advantage of a right arm, it soon became evident
that he was no match for his antagonist After
a few passes Captain Butler aimed a thrust at
Signor Mosso, striking and smashing his eyeglass
breaking the steel rim. The rapier glanced a
little aside, and penetrated the flesh between the
eye and nose. The wound was not dangerous
but it gave an excuse to the seconds and surgeons
to terminate the conflict.

LOOKING FOR PENSIONS.

The Mexican War Veterans met recently in
New York to perfect an organization and to dis
cuss the bill to be presented to the Legislature by
Senator Jacobs, which promises pensions for
services in the conflict of 1868 permanent
organization was effected, Jacob r. Riley being
chosen president Colonel Kerrigan, vice-presi-
dent and E. III. Johnson, secretary. The bill that
the veterans resolved to push is entitled Gan act
for the relief fthe surviving members of the First
Regiment of New York Volunteers" 1t calls for
the appointment of commission, to consist of
the Governor the Comptroller, and State Treas
urer, which shall decide upon all applications for
the pensions. This commission, the bill provides,

in the State, who on due evidence are shown to
have been members of the First regiment in the
Mexican war, on which the Comptroller shall
order to be paid S12 per month, in quarterly in
stallments, for two years from the passage of the
act. The certificates are not to be assignable,
nor is the money due thereon to be attached.
The gross amount of the claims is to be inserted

INSULTING THE SOLDIERS.

For sixteen years "the soldier element" has
had everything pretty much its own way Gen
erals and Coonels, by virtue of those titles, won
in many cases by political influence and by no
merits of their own,) have had the inside track
in all the nominating conventions They have
received the best offices in the gift of the people
= If the preponderance of the soldier ele-
ment" elevated and purified the public service 1t
would be welcome. No taxpayer, no man free from
party shackles, would object to the presence of
any element that would work such charm. But
the public service has been at no time more cor
rupt than since military candidates have been in
the ascendant-Ne,C York Journal of Commerce.
