Baneful characteristics of Germany's Young
Count.
The Contem porary Review contains an
article entitled "The Bismarck Dynasty"
which bears no signature, hut which con.
tains internal evidence of having emanat
&c from high authority. 1t is probable
that the article will cause q sensation. 1t
opens with the reminder that the chan
celor cannot live long. The American
minister at Berlin, the article says, hve
years ago remarked with surprise that
Prince Bismarck was preparing no one
to succeed him. The chancellor, waking
suddenly to this idea, set about develop
ing Count Herbert Bismarck.
The article frankly alludes to Count
Herbert's youthful brawls, to his later in
trlguss and to his embodiment with
woman at Rouen, from which he had to
slash his way with his sword, receiving an
ugly cut on the head. The Bismarckjan
contempt for women, accumulated by
this and another intrigue after the war is
represented as the origin of all that is
baneful in the Bismarckian character.
1--WE shall have no moe petticoats med
ding with politics now" was, according
TO rumOr, the exclamation of the e1utant
Count Herbert on the death of Emperor
Frederick.
The article affects to dismiss as mon
strous the iEslnuation of the opponents
of Prince Bismarck that the chancellor
medltated the death of EN- perur Freder-
ick when he insisted that Frederick
should leave San Reno for Berlin, but
depicts the idea that his ascendency
would be menaced by Empress Fred
erick as nightmare to the chancellor,
who further saw by Frederick's refusal to
discuss state affairs with Count Herbert
thai it would be useless to hope that
Herbert would ever be Frederick's chan
cellor. We could, therefore be surprised
the writer asks, had Prince Bismarck
wished the cancer to make haste.
The writer of the article asserts that
com pact with the present emperor was
the only reason Prince Bismarck had for
opposing the marriage of Princess Vic
toria with Prince Alexander of Batten-
burg.
The article is hardly less sparing in its
criticism of the present emperor. 1t
calls him an apt pupil of cynical mas
ter who found no difficulty, moral or SEN
timental, in treating mother in fashion
after Count Bismarck's own heart, and in
treating the Prince of Wales with such
discourtesy as to prevent any intercourse
between them.
The article goes freely into the Geff
oxen and Morrier affairs, but reveals
nothing new.

the feast and in the order in which it
was to be served-a convenient, if not an
indispensable custom; indeed, in the
present day We would be apt to look up
on the omission as barbsrous, for what
could be more so than to keep a man of
moderate gastronomic capacity in igno-
rance of some coming delicacy, and thus
allow him, in the dark, to crowd 1T out
with some previous dish or dishes, which
he may tolerate rather than fancy.

Table Customs of tine Ancients
Eahrrrarr Ta hl.a Tall

1t was one of the ancient customs to
recline at the feast; and the banqueting
rooms, gorgeously carpeted, were fitted
up with luxurious couches. Thus Plato
not the philosopher hut poet or the
same hame-says:
There the well dressed guests recline
On couches rich with ivory feet;
And on their purple cushIns dine,
" HIGH rich Sardiuian carpets meet"
And Ansxandrides:
open the supper rooms, and sweep
the house
And spread the couches fair"
Hereclides says that the PersiEns we're
