A Compl1ment to Amerloa.

LONDON, March Queen Victoria
spontaneously paid a great compliment to
America to-day in receiving Mr. Phelps.
wife of the United States minister in a
private audience at Windsor castle. Mrs.
Phelps was accompanied by Earl and
Countess Roseberry. The party met at
Windsor station and were conveyed to the
castle by special court carriages. The
countess presented Mrs. Phelps in the
ambassador room. The queen received
Mrs. Phelps most cordially and conversed
with her for some time. a reception to
a ministers wife privately by the queen
is almost phenomenal, that honor being
due only to the wives of ambassadors.
The hsnor is more marked because the
queen will hold a drawing room reception
shortly, at which il is customary to pre-
sent ministers wives to her. Mrs. Phelps
was attircd in mourning. The party
lunched at the castle and were conveyed
back to the station in the same royal car
riages, preceded by gorgeous posullions.
Mr.. Phelps did not accompany his wife.
Official notice will be given in the Court
Circular of the presentation OF Mrs
Phelps.

mouths; but they they oon yielded to
the inevitable, and before the second act
ended they were breaking their bonnet
strings and gasping Historically in efforts
to catch their breath between shrieks. 1t
was a complete surrender to the mad
spirit Of the hour, and the more the au-
dience laughed the greater seemed their
provocation to laugh. And that was the
spirit which the two comedians sustained
unaagginly for two and a half hours"
