A story is going the rounds of the Euro
pean diplomatic circles relating to one of our
present representatives of high rank in tie
far east. At dinner given by prominent
native official, at which the whole diplomatic
corps was present, the American minister
was seated by the side of the French ambas-
sadOr, who often addressed his American col
league after the usual French manner as
monsieur. This did not please the temper
nor suit the dignity of the gentleman of the
eagle country, and he stood the supposed I'M
due familiarity on the part of the Frenchman
until his patience became quite exhausted,
and then his pent-up Indignation burst forth
in words more characteristic for strength
than elegance, and as reported in about this
strain:
"By -, sir I'd have you to understand,
sir, that I've been governor of the state of

your country, sir, and I'll be id if III be
