The sApersti- tions respecting natural pheuaMena. which are as living active truths to-day for nls classes in China, remind us rath- CT of man in his state of bar5arism than of the ancient culture and civilization of the Midd e Kingdom. The sun and tho moon are to the Chinese as they were to primitive man, living things. gods to be worshiped. The stars n their courses powerfully influence, fl thev to not absolutely determine, all human events In them the wise may read as in took the destiny of man ana the fate of empires. Their on binations make lucky and unlucky days. and we shall do we'll to note carefully their signs and silent warnings. Comets are the precursors of fam ne. pestiience and war prognost.cafo of the wreck of ofempires and the fall of Kings. Ecl'pses are the periodic efforts of the dragon

 .among my pupils was Lady Ogie. wife of Admiral Sir Charles 0gie. She was Roman Catholic. and fgeqgsntly, when was giving lesson. shs would be visited by ladies of her acquaintance. including many of the Italian nobility, On one of these occa ions the servant announced ia Principes a Colonna- She sat down opposite where 1 was painting, an she and Lady Ogle had n good deal of eslvarsatian. Al'hpngh knew Italian paid little attentioa to what they were saying till the Princess getting excited. used the words 'infame' and .bestia, an I ob erved Lady 0gle look surprised and ask her friend to tell her sll ahop, it I was present. said the Princess. and saw it all;' and then she proceeded to relate the following. which translate ss nearly as l can Tn her own words:
 ".You must know that when the King (Ferdinand H.. '.Romha') mar ried tue Sardinian Prince at Turin, he stayed for day or two in Rome on his return to Naples. and his hohaess Greg orv XNL) was graciouslv plea ed to pay his Majesty visit of congratuia- fioh. On the occasion 3 very select party was got together at the Neapoli- tan Ambassador consisting of cardi- nals. monsignori, and some of the old noble families. The Pope was very gracious to the new Queen. He had heard of her musical accomplishments. and peeially sf her great interest in hnreh music, and as she said she was devoted to Marceilo. his Holiness asked if she would have the kindness lge'stis' es,dl to sing his fayorite, No. 2s of the Psalms. The Queen replied that to do % would be great honor. In the mean time ths King. her husband. was sitting by. sulky. ilent dad gloomy, with his elbow resting on the piano. fhe Queen turned to him and said playfully that he must turn the leaves for her. For an swcr Hi. Majesty of the Two Sic'liei rose and kicked the stool iron; below the Queen, who fell heavily on the mar ble floor. l need not tell you, dear Lady Ogle. of the scene which followed. The King immediately left without speaking; The poor Queen was carried to q bedroom. and l took my depart ure. when two great doetoEs, ~ba had been hastily sent for. arrived l heard that the Pope was terribly shocked.
