From the Coffin of Louis XIV,


Among the many interesting articles
| which are treasured up in the Cluny Mu-
scum there is said to be brass plate with AN
engraved inscription which once was fast
ened to the coffin Of Louis XIV, and after
ward, in 1893, was torn of, when the peo-
pie entered the family vault Of the Bourbon
kings, broke the collins. threw the bodies
out, and carried away everything that
they could find OF metal ornaments. lew
elry, &c. The plate shows the united crest
OF France and Navarro, surrounded by the
chain OF st. Louis and the ribbon of the
Order OF the Holy Ghost, supported by two
angels as crest-bearerS, with the inscrip.
ton: Here rests the noble and mighty
Prince, King Louis NV, King OF
France and Navarro, &c. Req,tieScat
IN pace" In the lower part there
are three holes at equal distances.
about which there exists a curious story.
M. Du Sommerard, the founder of the Cluny
Museum, was one day in common public
house at st. Denis, where on the wall he
noticed brass frying-pan of somewhat
uncommon shape. He took it down 10 ey-
anime it more particularly, and discovered
some engraved letters under thick
crust OF coal and SCOT. Without saving
anything about his discovery, he bonpbt
the pan from the astonished owner, and az
ter process Of cleaning It appeared that
II was the plate from the coffin OF Louis
XIV. The three legs were taken out. and
the original shape restored, but the holes
into which the legs had been fastened re-
main until this day.

" Democrats Don't Propose to Divide
Now"
To the Editor Of the Dispatch

10 He butt' " Wt DtSputCh'
There is one thing that you can safely
count on in Virginia, and that is the Dem
0cracy have no sort OF idea Of "dividing"
on the tariff question. When the time
comes | think in other States the party will
act in the same way. 1t would be worse
than a crime to let minor question over
ride far greater questions. What the peo-
pie want is "to turn out the r3scals now
in power, and have the Government run
once more, not for the benefit of star-route
thieves, monopolists, and rascals, but for
their own benefit. The man is blind who
cannot see the corruption and tyranny
which have grown up In the Republican
party by its long lease of power. Istill
stand on the Lynchburg PLATFORM" but l
would not care fig il you had every day
2ure " free-trade" column, an "incidental
protection" column, and "high protec-
tive tariff" column, and, think that is the
feeling among the Democrats generally all
through the State. Men who have fought
so long against the Republican party have
too much sense, on the eve OF 4 fair pros
pect Of a victory, TO divide on minor
thing which it is out Of their power to set
tie any way until change is made in the
presidency. OLD DEMOCRAT.
