Wives of England's Premiers.

Nearly all the recent Premiers of En-
gland have enjoyed the advantage OF
having had wives of great devotion
and considerable ability, to whose ten
der care and sympathy in their ambi-
ton they have been largely indebted.
The devotion of the Countess of Rus
sell, who is still living, and the Count
ess of Beaconsfield, had something Of
romance. Mrs. Gladstone, who is
nearly the same age as the Premier,
accompanies her husband, as did Lady
Beaconstield, every where, and fire.
quently remains in the ladies' gallery
to the close of the nights sitting. Lord
Palmerston, moro than perhaps any
other first minister, however, was in
debted for his position and its mainten-
auce to his wife. who was physically
and mentally 4 remarkable woman.
Up to her death in 1869, at IS, four
years after her husband, she could read
without glasses, and talked with all
the fire and energy of a young woman
OF 20. Her voice was most. CHEEKY,
musical, and soft. Her eyes were Of
bright blue, and in spite of a very evil
dentwig she was very handsome old
lady. She had some peculiarities; al
ways shook hand with her left hand,
and pronounced gold '.gould,'' and
china :'cheeny."

In 1876, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu-
facture of the James Boss Gold Watch Case.
Now over foe hundred are employed, and the

son of this increase is this: In the james

case, is of stronger metal than gold,

The worth ofTheir Money.

An amusing incident occurred last
night at the Arch street theater. The
doors Of the theater had Just been OPEN
ed when there appeared at the box Of
flee two middle aged men, who asked
the price of good front seats. The pes
culiarity of their attire bore striking
resemblance to the wonderful suit Of
..store clothes which Barney McAuley
wears in the last act of the Jerseyman.
That they were from the country was
self-evident; that they were specially
gotten up for visit to the theater
was apparent, and their demand for
two front seats exhibited q disregard
for expense sometimes seen in the
young man from the country who has
come to town for the purpose of max
ing night of it.
'.The cost will be = began the
ticket seller.
ooh, blow the cost. Let's have the
cards." one of them interrupted.
Taking their tickets they were shown
to seats on the first row in the orches-
ira. The green curtain ordinarily used
at the theater being away for repairs
the drop-curtain-an elaborate repre-
sentation of Diana and her nymphs on
the Island of Delos-had been lowered
in place of it.
II swan, Jabez,'' said one, ''ef that
amt the pootiest picter I ever Seed"
It's a big thing" replied the other.
"a nice gal is the big one.''
Eyes, but look at the one blowing the
horn for dinner
s'Oh, N.Y." was all his companion
was capable of saying.
Silently they inspected the curtain
for while, and then the first speaker
broke out with the remark:
II calkilate we've had the with of
our cash-let's co.
. They arose to leave the theater. On
their way out they came across Mr..
Samuel Ruhe, the veteran usher, to
whom they expressed the opinion that
the painting was a great thing, but
trifle expensive. Ruhe saw the mis-
take and told them that the pcrfor-
nance had not yet begun.
''Dew tell!'' exclaimed one. '.Hev
you got anything to show, sides that
big picter?"
More in sorrow than in anger did
Ruhe remove the veil of ignorance from
the eyes of the rural visitors. Back to
their seats they repaired, and during
the performance of lie Voyage en-
SUISSE they attracted the greatest at
tention by the hcartiness of their laugh
ter and the strength of their applause.
AS they arose to depart one of them re-
marked:
