regrets the change he made. His friends cay
he left the Senate and went with Mr.. Cleveland
to the Cabinet out Of purely patriotic motives,
and that he has found the change much less
agreeable than he anticipated. 1t is announced
upon the most positive terms that Secretary
Whitney will leave the Cabinet within three or
four months. whether President Cleveland is
reelected or not For six months the friends
of Attorney general Garland have been stating
euardedly that that official intends to got ont OF

March. Almost a year ago it was
announced that Secretary Endicott would leave
the War Department. at tho beginning OF the
next presidential term, whether or not the Pres

Fairchild from the assistant secretaryship to be

eumstances, and under protest IL is well known
here that he will not be retained in the Cabinet

A Princess's Wedding Dress.

ding dress to be worn by the bride. This dress
was presented to the Empr ess, among other
gifts, by the town Of Liegs. at her marriage to
Napoleon I'LL The pattern Of this wonderful
lace dress is formed Of innumerable violets, the
favorite flowers Of the Bonapartists. and the
beautiful Spanish Princess had never worn it
since her wedding day. A few weeks ago the
robe. which represents a value Of at least 80 =
oO0f, arrived at the residence of Princess Lac
titia, at Turin, and with it a note from the EN-
prees to the effect that she had always hoped TO
give the dress which she had worn during the
proudest moment of her life 70 the bride which
her son Louis might choose, but the Almighty
bad willed IL otherwise, aud she would be glad
il the Princess Laetitia would now wear it on

that the Priucess's happiness would rest on a
