Victoria's Will.

From London Truth.
The queen is said by a contemporary to have
just made new will, by which Princess Sophia
of Prussia is to benefit largely. This is quite
untrue, for her majesty's will (Which was ''set-
tied" by most eminent counseD was made in
1884, few months after the death of the duke
of Albany, and it is in the highest degree i'm
probable that'she will ever cancel it in order to
make another. 1t is no secret that the duke of
Connaught and Princess Beatrice are to be the
queens principal heirs, but her majesty's pri-
vate fortune is SO immense that it will afford
most ample provision for all the younger men,
beers of her family. Princess Sophia certainly
needs no assistance from her grandmother, as
she has very handsome income from the
Prussian state fund, and her share of the En-
peror Fredericks personal property will ulti-
mately amount to at least f120. 900. to say moth
ing of her expectations from the Empress
Augusta, with whom she is a favorte.

their manner OF conducting business. The
trouble is that every year it comes around and
the grievance is felt by everybody here, and
we grumble and illuminate and declare what
shall be done, and Congress goes by and moth
ing is done. The committees do not report any
schemes that will relieve us of the evil the in
convenience, the trouble; and whoever are i'm
posing upon us after time get to feel that
they can do il with impunity, and from year to
year they continue. have no doubt that when
they get together and sit down and consider the
subject, draw their dividends and go on for the
next year, part of the performance is to
laugh in derision at the talk that is made in
Congress about it. So we suffer ourselves we
suffer our constituents who come here and
everybody else, to be imposed upon. He
wanted to know if 1t was not clearly in the
power of the Commissioners of the District to
regulate such matters in proper way.
MR.. EDMUNDs' EXPERIENCE WITH THE DISTRICT

to require this very thing. whether" said
he, "the existing law would give even such a
weak and Intellectual remedy as is provided in
this amendment, do not remember; but the
fact is, as the Senator from Maine has stated,
that, granted the Commissioners have the
power to compel the doing Of this rightful and
necessary thing, they have not done it, and

befor they will do it il left TO themselves.

the Commissioners of the District calling their

your horse to a walk and 20 as you would across
the railway tracks. asked them to call upon
the railways and compel them to make those
crossings there in . condition suitable for

! courtesy that they would attend 10 IL ct once,
