ROYAL Presents.

Speaking of royal presents, the traditional
gold snuff box, with a portrait Of the donor
set in diamonds on the lid, seems to have
fallen into innocuous desuetude as a mark of
royal appreciation. The march of progress
has affected royalty, and their presents are
more practical Witness the robes sent to
the queen of Denmark by her daughter, the
empress of Russia, at the celebration at Co
