How He Met Macmillan and Car
lOtta.

Mexico naturally attracted ex-Con-
federates. There was strong SYM
pathy with Macmillan among the bet
ter class of Southerners. The success
of the French arms in Mexico was
eagerly hoped for, and it was believed
that under stable empire in that coun-
try liberal inducements would be offer
ed to Southern colonies. In 1865 hun
dreds of people left the Southern
States and crossed the Rio Grande with
the intention of becoming the loyal
subjects of the Emperor Macmillan.
When the empire collapsed all of these
settlers who were able to return home
did so, feeling sadder and wiser. One
of the disappointed pioneers, Capt.
White, of Tennessee, said to a Consti-
tuition man: II met the Empress Car
lotta while was in Mexico. 1t was
in this way: You see the Emperor and
Empress made it point to visit every
city and town in the empire when there
was no Mexican army on hand to pre-
vent it, They came to my village one
day, and, as / was walking along
narrow street with sidewalk just wide
enough for one person, came face to
face with the Empress Carlotta, Maxi
milan, and a glittering staff walking
behind her in single file"
"What did you doP" II was scared
to death. I hadn't seen a civilized wo-
man, much less pretty one, in six
months. There was, looking like
tramp, suddenly confronted by one of
the most beautiful women in the world,
an Empress at that. To add to the
horror of my situation I had a fifteen
pound cabbage under each arm, and
consequently could not raise my hat
Fortunately, the Empress understood
the situation. She saw, too, that I
was an American with the old Confed-
crate buttons on my coat, and as I
stepped aside with a bow she greeted
me with a dazzling smile and . gracious

When Il new milch cow has her

Buoyart clothing has been devised
by a Londoner, and seems to be at
tracting some attention in that me-
tropoiis. Threads Of cork are inter-
woven with cotton, silk, or wooden,
machinery which slices the cork 70
the required thinness forming part OF
the invention. From these new ma
tcrials clothes of ordinary appearance
are constructed which bear up the
wcarer when committed unexpectedly
to the water. The worth of the new
fabrics was thoroughly tested by
throwing three persons clothed IN
them from the end Of n pier. They
tloated as easily as if incased in cork
Jackets. It is said that they remained
in the water over an hour without
discomfort. The possibilities of fire
proof apparel are next in order.

The Petition For n ReeeIvership For
 she Charter Oak Life Insurance Conn
 Pany.
 The hearing on the petition for receiver for the Charter Oak Life Insurance company was resumed before Judge Granger of the Supreme court at Hartford Monday after noon. Nothing was done at the first sitting five weeks ago beyond opening the case, and adjournment was had for the preparation of 8 detailed statement as to the assets of the company. This statement declares the actual assets to be $2,s19, ,70S. The object is to show that the assets are less than three-fourths the liabilities, in which case the commissioner is required by law to make such application as has been made. The liabilities are A, ,S65,- 22e. The reply of the company is that the valuation is unfair. The first witness, Ephraim Williams, insurance commissioner of the State, testified that he had brought the petition for . receiver, because the state ment of the company for December 30, 1884, showed assets less than the liabilities and because on further examination the as- sets seemed to be SO much less than the ha- bilities that it was his duty under the law to take action. He stated the liabilities at $4,- 365, ,22S, and the assets at $2,S19, ,793. The company values its assets at A, 236, ,l72. Ar. Williams cross-examination occupied the rest of the afternoon, and was devoted to showing that the examination of the assets by the insurance commissioner had been nasty and imperfect, and to calling attention to the wide discrepancies between the valua- tions given in the plaintiffs bill of particu- lars and in the valuation by the department. The differences between the company's valu- ations and those of the department are shown by the following: @

THE INTEREST DEFAULTRB.

The New York q New England R aiI-
 road Fail to Fay the Interest on
 Their Bonds.
 BOSTON, Nov. 10.-The State of Massa- chusetts holds $1, ,7S7, 900 of the second mortgage bonds of the New York & New England road upon which no interest has been paid for the last year and 8 half For the last year, however, the State accepted additional second mortgage bonds in pay ment of the interest, making the total amount of such bonds in the treasury $1 ,842, 900. Upon this amount the last six six months interest has recently been de- faulted At a meeting of the Governor and Council yesterday it was voted to place the States bonds upon the market by advertising for bids for the same, reserving the right to reject any or all pro posals This action was taken, it is under stood, with the feeling that single individ- nal or company of capitalists could act more advantageously for all the parties in in- terest, and also that the prospects of the road and the recent quotations of the bonds war rant the belief that the State can dispose of it's interests at fair figure. It is further understood that it is within the contempla- tion of the Governor and council that any such transfer of it's interests in the road to private parties shall be to those who are friendly to its best development.
 In the equity session of the Supreme court to-day Judge Devens, in the case of Lamb vs the New York and New England railroad company, ordered an injunction to issue to restrain the defendant company from insuing preferred stock to pay of it's floating dsbt. Mr. Lamb who is an owner of common stbe4, claimed that the scheme which was being carried ont by the conpa- ry would wipe out the common stock; while on the other hand the corporation contend cd that it had the power to make the exchange under a special statute of 1884. Judge Devens said he had no doubt of the desirabflity and practicability of the scheme and he could not see low any owner of common stock could be harmed, as the common stock was liable for the floating debt. The question at issue was . very narrow one, but the rules of the statutes were not as fex- ible as those of the common law Owing to the importance of the matter to the corpora4 tion he would reserve the question for the full court so as to get as speedy disposition of it as possible.
