the Empress Eugenie's Courtship:

the Empress Eugenle's Courtship:
Paris Letter in Boston Journal
There are some curious anecdotes
about Napoleon III in the "Souvenirs
Of Compiegne," recently published by
sylvanecte," who appears to have been
one Of the legitimist neighbors Of the
emperor in the vicinity of Compeigne
forest. The same chronicler tells us
that Napoleon's fascination for Mademo:
iselle de Montijo, who afterward became
the Empress Eugene, dated from the
time when that sprightly beauty gave
him q sharp horsewhipping. The en-
peror had invited Mademoiselle de
Montijo and her mother to Compiegne,
and showed them much attention
at hunting parties: one evening,
when the hunt came home late, Napo-
leon so enraged the beauty that she
caught up her riding whip and gave. it
to him over his head and ears. This
soon brought about an explanation, and
in course of time came the famous let
ter in which Napoleon expressed his
desire to have Mademoiselle Eugene
to wife--a letter which the mother lost
no time in making public, and which
is now religiously preserved in the arch
ives of the family at Madrid. Accord
ing to "Sylvanecte" the future Empress
WIS much prosecuted by Napoleon be-
fore he made her his proposal of mar
riage, and it is related that on one oc-
casion he was so enraged because she
would not grant him a rendezvous
asked for while they were out riding
that he put spurs to his horse and gal
loped away, leaving her to find her way
home through the foreset as best she
could. The poor girl lost her way, and
did not reach the palace until o'clock
in the evening, when all the guests and
the domestics were alarmed for hel
safety.

AN ALBANY LOBBY SCENE.

One of the good features of the session of
the Connecticut legislature which recently
came to an end was that there was a great
deal less 'lobbying'' connected with it than
there has been in some recent years. The
"third house" was not large or obtrusiveIy
active. And much of what lobbying there
was was not of particularly Objectionable
character. But the present session of the New
York legislature, which has not yet ended,
cannot come in for any such commendation.
In fact there are few sessions of any legisIs-
tive body which have been SO disgraced by
lobbyists as that now in progress at Albany.
Yesterday a very disgraoeful exhibition
occurred, the occasion being an attempt to
bill. The enforcement of the rule that no
outsiders shall be allowed on the floor of the
Assembly hall was demanded early in the
session and everybody not officially con-
nected with the Assembly was turned into
the outer corridors. There the business of
dealing with members was carried on vigor-
ously. The business of the lobby was carr
ried on in the corridor and in the Assembly
parlor, a large, fine room where the SUBJ
Committee of the Whole meet. The scene
finally became so scandalous that Nessrs
Roosevelt, Hustled and others deemed it best
to see if there was not power somewhere to
clear the building of Objectionable persons
Mr.. Roosevelt made vigorous speech, setting |
forth the fact that the Assembly was literally
coralled by the gang outside the doors. Mr..
Hustled offered resolution requesting Super
Andre VS. to clear the corridors and
the committee rooms of the building of the
money changers. The Sergeant at Arms
notified Superintendent Andrews of the
adoption of the resolution requesting the re-
tirement of all persons from the building,
and the superintendent requested the lobby
lets to leave. They moved, however, only
from the corridor next the chamber. They
stepped down three steps and made stand
at the head of the stairs and around the ele-
vator doors. The Chief of Orderlies deemed
that this removal would serve the spirit of
the order of the House. An officer was sta
toned on the steps to challenge anyone not
officially connected with the assembly who
might attempt to approach the assembly COR
ridor. When the work of guarding the chsm-
Der was done, members who had been fre- |
quently all the morning among the lobby |
were requested to take their places in the |
House to vote on the bill.
There have been several similar exhibitions |
during the present session of the Now York |
legislature, though none of them was quite |
as shocking as this. The lobbyists have ap-
parentIy accomplished great deal, aad their |
boldness is phenomenal. Perhaps next year |
they will drive the speaker out of his chair, |
take the business of the assembly into their |
own hands and run il to suit themselves. II |
the reports of what they accomplish which |
come from Albany are true they might about |
as well take this STEP
