The Terrors Of an Epidemic.

Nothing is more curious than the
fact that dying as one of a crowd seems
to be more terrible to man than simply
dying his own individual death. I'm
questionably there seems to be no kind
of death more dreaded by men than
death either from sudden catastrOphes
like that of the Ring Theater at Vienna
and that on the Clyde, for instance-or
from pestilence. No doubt, it is per-
fectly true that death cannot be shared
in the same sense in which a peril or a
pleasure can be shared; you cannot, in
all probability, be conscious of the
strength of compapiOnship after
life begins to flicker low, nor are
there above one or two people in the
world with whom most men would
covet the sense of cOmpanionship in
such moment as that of death Still,
tits somewhat curious that death on a
grand scale always seems to be more
terrible, even to the separate individuals,
than the ordinary death by units. OF
course, terror is very catching, and,
therefore, the terror of q crowd always
enhances the terror of the individual
But though that explains the supreme
agony of a sinking ship or burning
theater, it does not in the least explain
the additional dread of death which
plague seems to inspire in individuals,
for between the inhabitants of a plague
stricken city there is always very much
less active sympathy than there was be-
fore the pestilence appeared, and it is
rather through the growth of mutual
repulsion than through the frightening
of common sympathy that the in
fuence of pestilence is chiefly felt. As
fact, very few patients stricken with
ordinary disease who are told that death
is inevitable show any panic at all, while
the perfectly healthy man, surrounded
by pestilence, is too often consumed
with terror which renders him abso-
lutely unfit for the discharge of his
duties. Spectator.

The History Of a Suit Of ArmOr.

Large profits would probably be
realized by any enterprising speculator
who adopted the plan of buying articles
of old clothing worn by eminent persons
and selling them at some future day as
interesting relics, when they would,
there can be little doubt, often realize
fabulous prices. The happy chances
occasionally afforded by dealings of this
description are illustrated by thefollow-
ing facts related to us by a correspon-
dent respecting suit of armor that
originally belonged to King Francis I.
of France. This armor was bought by
the late Sir Anthony RothschiId for
G10O, and sold by him to the late Lord
Ashburnham for FL 900. Some years
afterward it was sold by Lord Ashburn
for $4,000 to a dealer in curiosities,
who resold it within twenty-four hours
to a wealthy customer for no less a sum
than Ell, 900. The subsequent history
of the armor is even still more remark
able. 1t was deposited by its purchaser
in the BeIgrave-Square Pantechnicon,
and when that unfortunate building
was destroyed by fire the armor was
buried beneath the ruins. Dug out of
the debris, it was sold for a few pounds
as old iron. 1t survived, however, even
this degradation; for. after undergoing
a process of renovation, it was subse-
quently sold to Mr.. Splitter of Paris, for
912,000, where it is said to be now on
sale for 920,O00.-St. James Gazette.

Princess

In almost every monarchy the posi-
ton of the members of the royal family
is one of the difficulties of statesmen,
and we should not wonder if it became
one even in England. Princess, indeed
unless they fall in love unwisely,
an event which,, though it has
occurred both in France and Austria,
witness the cases of the Duchess de
Berry and of Napoleon's widow, the
Grand Duchess of Parama, happens
wonderfully seldom-are rarely trouble
some. Either they marry more or
less acceptably and 90 away or they
live at home as quiet daughters of the
house, or they vegetate apart from the
current of affairs in dignifed retirement.
They cannot form political parties,
they very rarely lead society, and they
have not often been so popular as to be
individually formidable. In modern
history, two Princesses, our own Mary
Stuart and the German lady who be-
came Catherine II. of Russia, have
headed successful rebellions, the
Duchess de Berry was Louis Philippe's
most dangerous foe, and the Princess of
the Asturias was for a short time sup
posed to govern Spain, but, as rule,
the lives of royal ladies have interested
courtly biographies rather than serious
historians. Princes, however, are
often troubles. 1t is, we suppose, i'm
possible to base a system upon pedigree
without comforting some kind of impor-
lance upon all who can claim that pedi-
gree as their own; and in all States the
rivalries, ambitions, popularities, or
unpopularities of Princes have fretted
or perplexed statesmen. Either the
Princes have been employed by the
| sovereign, which is the more usual
policy, and then their disasters
have reflected disgrace upon the
| dynasty in special manner, and
have cost it popularity with the army,
or they have been shunted out of pol
tics, and then they have been discon-
tented subjects, formidable from their
rank. Some families, such as the
Hapsburgs, have been nearly exempt
from this danger, which is scarcely no
ticed in Vehse's pages; but it has been
a great one for the BOurbons, it was
felt by English Tudors, Stuarts, and the
house of Brunswick, and it has not been
entirely absent from the history of the
Romanoffs. Even in very recent years
the Russian Grand Dukes have headed
parties in dangerous way, and the son
| of Alexander L, the Grand Duke Con
stantine, never reconciled himself per-
fectlY to his brothers elevation. The

late Emperor was repeatedly called
upon to regulate family difficulties,
and in the gossip of Russia, at all events,
they press heavily on the present Car.
Even in England, where all such cabals
are supposed to be hopelessly out OF
date and forgotten, history has been
compelled, and that very recently, to
take note of them. Not to speak of the
Tudors, whose reigns were one long
war against possible rivals resting their
claims on pedigree, and of the Stuarts,
who were three times supplanted by
cadets-Mary and Anne both reigning
because they were Stuart Princesses,
and the Electress Sophia being Sc
lected by Parliament for the same rea-
son-there was that still obscure affair
of the old Duke of Cumberland in 1885.
Thousands believed that he aspired to
the throne aspired, we mean, by active
intrigue and Joseph Hume, a keen OBJ
server, with exceptional means of in
formation, attacked him in his place in
Parliament. It is difficult to believe
that the Duke could have so deluded
himself, but he had an energetic Orange
following, party spirit ran very high,
and he may have hoped for Parlia-
mentary vote. He had much better
position than Monmouth, and it seems
incontestable that Monmouth thought
the people of England would declare
for him and against the legitimate line.
He was not wrong in thinking that
''usurpation'' was possible.-Ihe Spec
