undergo the same fate at the hands of Queen
Elizabeth as his father had suffered under
Henry VIII. The Dukes grandfather and
the Queens grandmother were brother and
sister, and before her accession he had been
regarded as possible sutton for Ellzabeth's
hand. He married, however, in 1866, his
first wife being that daughter of the Earl
of Arundel who, as we have already said,
brought the title and estates of Arundel back
into the family of Howard
1t is unnecessary on the present occasion to
pursue further the history of the house of
Howard. In few months it will reach the
four hundredth anniversary OF the day when
the great ancestor of the race was ennobled,
and no one who reflects on the varied and
eventful history of the family during those
four hundred years can doubt that the ami
versary will be full Of profound Interest for
all whose Imagination is lively enough to be
touched by the romance of English history

THAT portion of the new tariff which ex-
empts American artists residing in Europe
from the burden of import duties on their
works when shipped to America is said to
have excited great deal of indignation
among the foreign artists, who have hither-
to relied very largely upon the American
market for the sale of their productions.
But if the prices paid for the works of the
latter are so very liberal, as they are gener-
ally reported to be, these foreign artists
have really no excuse for indignation.

LONDON recently took down her Hyde

the interior of the marble arch on which it
stood was absolutely honey-combed with
makeshift apartments, which were occupied
by a colony consisting of nearly 20 persons,
including the janitor and his family, half-a-
dozen police constahles and medical stu
dent. This calls to the memory of the Lon
don Telegraph, the fact that when the old
palace at Somerset House was pulled down
to make room for a new pile of government
offices it was found that prolific colony of
beggars and cripples had for many years
been TRANQUILITY sQuatting in the apartments
formerly tenanted by maids of honor; that a
