Never before has there
appeared such a novelty in

VELOUTE.
They are made from the
best quality of real kid,
and by a newly-diScOyercd
process the surface is con-
verted into actual velvet,
quito unlike the usual
glace or glossy surface of
kid leather. 1t is from
this popularity that they
are called "VELOUTE."

CORRESPONDENCE.
FALSE FLA77ERERS.

EDITOR PREss;-When Henry the Eighth
ascended the throne Of England, there was
nothing TO indicate that he would end his days
as blood.stained tyrant. In fact, the manner
in which he spent his early life, and also the
first year Of his married life with the beautiful
Spanish Princess, Katherine Of Aragon, went
to show that he was originally man, and after.
ward King, Of well meant actions. But false
fiatterers were at hand, venal and corrupt
courtiers whispered deveish thoughts into his
ear. The body of newly beheaded queen
was scarcely cold when Henrys servile parlia.
ment would petition him to marry again,
knowing the foremost sentiment which pre-.
vailed in the mind of their remorseless sover.
eign, and having SeJfsA ends of their o7on ID
st'Je. The depraved aristocracy of those days
catered for smiles and recognition from the
murderous offspring Of the royal Tudor race.
So much for royalty! 1t is not my intention
to try and supplant Macaulay, or any other his.
torian of England, but merely to point out to
the people of this country, native as well as for.
eign, that the thin end Of the wedge of oppres
sion is being inserted Kalakaua's advisers are
unreliable--some unprincipled, and others stu
pidly ignorant; collectively, they manage te
keep their sovereigns eyes dazzled as to pub
lie opinion, otherwise he would instantly dis
miss them. The Hawaiian palace aristocrac,

LATE FOREIGN NE IHS

The Russian proverb, "Near the czar close
to death" had singular fulfillment recently in
the park at Peterhof. Alexander beckoned to
him a laborer on some Improvements, and as
the man ran toward the car he was shot dead
by the sentry. Orders had been issued to fire
at any one approaching the car without leave
and the soldier who shot had not seen the czar's
signal. II costs good many lives. one way
and another, to preserve a despot's.
A quiet revolution is near the point of crisis
in Norway, which is not unlikely to add one to
the list Of European republics. There is gen
eral impression that Norway is in some way
dependency Of Sweden, but although the two
countries are habitually grouped together their
bond Of union is simply the possession of the
same dynastic head, and Norway is wholly
independent kingdom, with its own parliment,
ministry, laws and institutions. Oscar III, the
grandson Of Bernadotte, is a very cultivated
gentleman, who lives in Stockholm when he is
not travelling over the continent, and is not
over popular even in Sweden, where the liberal
sentiment is growing very strong, while his
disposition is as reactionaTy as il he had royal
ancestry long, instead Of being only two gen
erations removed from the people. The Nor.
wegians, who only have his company few
weeks in the year, cordially dislike him; and
the independent spirit which has always marked
them since they rose against Denmark is fed
BY resentment at his attempts to act like real
king, instead Of the mere hgure.head they re.
gard him. The present quarrel arose from
the paIliament's passage Of law requiring the
presence Of the ministry at its sittings. Three
times this law was passed over the Kings veto,
and the constitution provides that a law SO
passed shall be operative, Notwithstanding the
kings disappsoval, but Oscar H., declaring
thai change of the fundamental law snch rs
this measure is, does not come within the scope
Of this constitutional provision, repeats his veto.
parliament dehes the king and commands
obedience to the law, and unless the king re.
cedes, the chances are good for revolution.
Professor Boyesen, who lately returned from a
visit to his native land, tells newspaper man
who talked with him in Stockbridge, where he
is summering, that the peasants are united and
would, II they could, set up a republic. y
The movement is promising, nor does !, seen,
that the revolution need be long or bloody.
