Empress Eugenle's Condition.

Of the ex-Empress Eugene, London
Truth says-Her old vivacity has died
out If it had not, she would try to
subjugate it, for she ascribes to her i'm
petuous disposition the eliminating
error of the emperor's reign, and an
other event for which she will mourn as
long as life and consciousness remain to
her. She has the generosity to admit
the errors of judgment into which she
was hurried, and which were attended
with disastrous consequences both
for her family and for the ma
ton over which, by an aston
ishing freak of fortune, she became
the sovereign. The empress still thinks
aloud, and talks often and rapidly of
what is on her mind. She i'll bears any
mental tension, unless in religious ex-
ercises, and has not the resources of
music, embroidery, knitting, or sewing,
which enabled Marie Amelie to beguile
the tedium of a residence at Claremont.
Her infirmity prevents her walking as
much as she wishes. She lives al
together at Marlborough in the past,
and among objects reminding her of de-
parted glories of the emperor and of her
ill-starred son, of whom she can now
speak without falling into paroxysms OF
grief. The inner woman Is chastened
by affection, and the outer woman faded;
but she is more interesting, perhaps,
than when she had the prestige of beau
ty, throne, and Externally the most
brilliant court in Europe.

Tay1or's Visit to Tennyson.

In one of Bayard Taylor's letters to
E. G. Stedman, written in 1867, is the
following charming description of a
visit to Tennyson at Harrington, his
country home:
eve arrived about o'clock and were
ushered into the drawing room. The
house had been refurnished and great
many pictures and statues added since

lowed by his wife. In Tennyson ]

did not seem older than when I saw
him last. We walked through the
park and garden; then M. returned &c
the house, while he and went up on
the downs and walked for miles along
the chalk cliffs above the sea. He
was delightfully."- free and confiden-
tial, and 1 wish I could write
to you much of what he said ::
but it was so inwrought with high phil
osophy and broad views of life that a
fragment here and there would not
fairly represent him. He showed me
all his newly acquired territory; among
the rest great stretch of wheat fields
bought for him by Enoch Arden. We
dined at 6 in a quaint room hung with
pictures, and then went to the drawing
room for dessert.
"Tennyson and I retired to his study
at the top of his house, lit pipes, and
and talked of poetry. He asked me if
could read his 'Boadicea.' I thought
I could. Read it and let me see, said
he. 4 would rather hear you read it, i
answered. Thereupon he did so,

This I doubted, and he agreed to try
after we went down to our wives. But
the first thing he did was to produce a
magnum of wonderful sherry, thirty
years old, which had been sent him by
poetic wine-dealer Such wine I never
tasted. 1t was meant to be drank by
Cleopatra or Catherine of Russia said
Tennyson. We had two glasses apiece,
when he said: "1e-night you shall help
me drink one of the few bottles of my
Waterloo-1S25.' The bottles was
brought and another glass all around
Tennyson took up the 'Idyls of the
King" His reading is strange, monot-
onous chant, with unexpected falling
infections, which I can not describe,
but can initiate exactly. It is very inn
pressive. In spite of myself I became
very much excited as he went on. FL
nally, when Arthur forgives the queen,
Tennyson's voice fairly broke. I found
tears on my cheek, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Tennyson were crying, one on either
side of me. He made an effort and
went on the end, closing grandly.
