Photograph of Worth.

Paris Letter to London Spectator.l
 lspent an hour in Worth's establish ment looking at pieces of embossed gren- adine that l thought of selecting for a party dress. The clerk, tall blonde, dressed in a princess of perfect it that could not have cost less than $40 a yard, was very gracious. But l changed my mind, apologized for having put her to SO much trouble, and was about to retire through the conservatorie, when she called out: "Mr. Worth, have shown this lady ever so many modes and now she refuses to leave an order." The tall, burly, red-faced, slouching-looking cele- brated dressmaker turned his fishy eyes full upon me, made a most profound salute with his arms and head, and re- marked: Madame, good afternoon. It will not be necessary for you to call again." This only goes to show that Mir. Worth can be and is very gracious, but he will not be trifled with. All of his clesks are compelled to wear the same cut of toilet, and while the color and hbsic may differ, it must be . superior quality q material. This is one of the methods he uses to display new designs and novel goods. Most of the business cares are assumed by his sons, the pere spending neasly all his time st his coun- try seat, which contains some fifty acres of nursery plants and blossoms. He is 'red-faced, sunburnt and grizzly, very careless in his attire, hasty in his judg- ment, petulant and decidedly unsocial. His heart, the Frenth ladies say, is in his fiower-garden, and the combination of colors for which he is so remarkable, is due almost entirely to botanical obseva- tions.

Inspifasisa of g Lady lGaebssh-.
 lLondon TFuth.l


 Lady Macbeah is essentially political woman of the close of the Renaissance. Three queens who had great qualities, and were absolutely devoid of conscience, must have been forced upon the attention of Shakespeare during the long period when he vas in London. We find in Lady Macbeth something of each. They were the FloFentine authoress of the ( Massacre of St. Bartholomew" Queen Elizabeth and the queen of Scotland, who may have risen to saintship through nineteen years of imprisonment, but who vas anything but saint when she mar ried Bothwel. Shakespeare presumably often longed to continue his series of historical plays up to the close of Eliza beth's reign. We way be sure his fingers itched to write the dramas in which the dramatic queens l have named would have been leading pezsonages. But it vas impossible for him, 90 long as Elizabeth toyed and tri6ed with the sons Of Catherine de Medicis, to have brought her and her astEologeT on the stage, or to have shown how she dominated Charles lx and her other sons.
 lt would have been repugnant to man cf Shakespeare's genius to have dattered like courier his sovereign through five acts, and 1t would have been dangerous to paint her as she was. When James came to the throne, whatever admiration or affection the drama&ist entertained for the defunct queen must have been heightened by the spectacle of her suc- cessors mean vices, and by the odious count of which he was the centre. Shakes peare might have often in Elizabeth's lifetime turned over in his mind her hypocritical persecution of Davidson, who, % to speak, was smeared by her with the blood of Mary of Scotland. But the great, though unamiable queen, was no more her toibles and harsh actions were condoned. She had been very good to the playwright and manager of the Globe theatre, and it would have been base ingratitude of him to show her at her worst on the stage, for the entertain meat of drunken Anne of Denmark and James minions. He would eoneede enough to king and courtiers in bringing the witches into the tragedy. Mary was being rehabilitated and her son was on the throne. So, out of the three queens, typical woman was formed. But there was more in hef of Catherine and Bess than of Mary Stuart. She was not devoid of heart and was actuated only by ambi- ton and Ia raison d'etat. The execution of Essex was the occasion of intense moral suffering to his royal mistress, who, towards the end of her life, was torment ed by remorse and insomnia. As it would not have done for stage purposes to have shown typical female politician of the period sitting up silent and moody all night in her bed, Lady Macbeth was made te walk and talk in her sleep.

Mercury as the God of Cats.

A lady who has, previous to leaving the modxsu Athens for the summer. carried her cat to board at the cat hostelry al Brighton, is vastly entertained and enter- taining in regard to it. She found the building delightfully finished in hard wood, while statue of Mercury keeps guard in the front hall Why Mercury she is not able to explain, rejecting with scosn the suggestion that as Mercury is the god of thieves it is appropriate that his image keep guard in home for cats. The attendants seemed cheerful aad fond oi their charges, although perhaps in- ciined to be . thought too cesemonious in such matters as insisting upon letters ct introduction before making one boarder acquainted with another The lady in question allowed her young charge to be introduced to two elderly and sedate tzb- bieh with whom she seemed to fraterriue admirably.

QUEBEC, November 1S.-T. II. Blgnel,
of this city, who left in June last in
command of the transport expedition
10 Lake Mistassini, has returned. He
gives a few particulars taken en- route.
The partv, with great difficulty, reached
the provinces on the northern boundary
ON a height of land. They then crossed
INTO Rupert's Land, and at distance
of $50 miles from Lake st. John, they
reached the southwestern extremity OF
the great lake Mistassini. He states
that the general trend of the lake, as
far as known, is from southwest to
southeast, stretching away from Foam
Bay and height of land in the south
west to an unknown distance towards
the east main land and Labrador. The
waters swarm with fish of all kinds, and
fur bearing animals are abundant. The
climate is agreeable and suitable for
agricultural purposes. 1t is stated that
the Hudson Bay Company have had
their agency there for upward OF 100
wears. but have held it a secret that a
lake OF such dimensions ever existed.
1t is supposed to be as large as Lake
Superior.

Tanners Convention.

ST.. LOUIS, November 18.-The Tan
ners' convention, to-day, received a re
port from the committee appointed tc
prepare a memorial to the cattle mems
convention. The report recommends
that the branding of cattle be done or
the head, neck or hip. and not in the
prOmiscuous manner in vogue. which sc
greatly diminishes the value of hides
Aside from the appointment of a com
mittee on classification of hides, the
convention did no other business. Ii
was understood, however, that they will
organize National Association of Tan
ners before they adjourn.
