EARL OF LYTToN. Princess The Prince
of Wales, the Duke OF Edinburgh, tho
Duke Of Cambridge and the rest. Tho
parliamentary achievements of the
Prince of Wales are, believe, limited
to the presentation of a petition in favor
of the repeal OF the law which prohibits
marriage with deceased wife's sister,
The Prince of Wales and tho other
Princes sit on what are called the 'cross-
benehes"-two or three rows of benches
facing the wool-sack and the Lord Chan
cellor. The ordinary benches, like those
of the House of Commons, stretch along
each side Of the chamber. The cross
benches are supposed to be occupied by
peers who maintain general neutrality
as regards political partisanship.
The Duke Of Cambridge speaks pretty
often on military subjects, and speaks
in bluff, straightforward, soldierly
sort Of way. The Duke has habit OF
expressing aloud the thoughts or no
tions, or whatever they may be, which
are passing in his mind at time when
he is supposed to be silent. Those who
sit near him are often amused or amazed
when they hear the Dukes opinion
frankly expressed with regard to the
general character or the personal APP
pearance OF some noble lord who sits
near by,
The House Of Lords contains one MEM
Der who is unquestionably insane, or
who, at all events, has many moments
ofinsanity, and it is pity that itshould
be so, for he is kindly, we'll meaning
and dwell.rcad man. .. :.
Lately taking offense at something
another Peer had said in the House, he
publicly invited the supposed offender
to cross over to France with him and
fight a duel. This bold challenger is
more than eighty years old
Finally, the House Of Lords has two
or three members who are never likely
to attend the sittings, because no one in
the House would speak to them or sit
near them If they were TO attend. In
deed the House Of Lords has lately been
considering the expediency of introduce
ing some legislation which should give
the hereditary chamber the right to
purify itself now and then by the expul-
sion OF members whose conduct has
made them disgrace to the assembly.
But when the work of reforming tho
House Of Lords begins in earnest It win
have TO go good deal farther than even
so wholesome an innovation as that
which some Of the Peers have sug-
pested.

Some English Peers.
Lord Granville, the Leader of tho Liberal
Party-rhe Duke OF Argyle .
Great Academic Ora

Lord Granville, the leader OF the Lib
eral party in the House OF Lords, is in
manner and person the very type OF a
Liberal leader OF the House of Lords.
He ought TO belong to tho eighteenth
century, and to have represented En-
gland at the court OF Versailles In that
century.
He is, writes Justin Mccarthy in

EARL OF GRANVILLE. ldeal QeDatef.
He never speaks at too great length; he
never misses a point; he always intro
huces some humorous anecdote or witty
illustration; for all his graciousness and
his blandness he can give a sharp cut
now and again, that reminds one Of a
sudden blood-drawing stroke from the
paw of cat who, up to that moment,
had seemed the gentlest and most harm
less of creatures.
He never even attempts rhetorical
eloquence, but his style of speaking is
pure, forciblc and graceful. He is one
Of the few Englishmen who can speak
French like Partisan, and, indeed,
there is much about him that reminds
one OF an accomplished French Duo or
Marquis in the dead days Of the old
noblSsse
Lord Granville ought to have been
Prime Minister of England some time
or other. Twice he was offered the
chance; each time he declined for rea-
sons most honorable to himself.
Now / suppose Lord Granville will
never be at the head of an English Gov
ernment. l am sorry for it. / think 1t
is pity he should not have held that
commanding position.
He is not man of genius; he is not
an orator; he is not exactly wit; but
he has great deal of talent, good
deal of a certain kind of eloquence, and
a good deal Of wit and humor. As
professional romancist, / am bound to
do all l can to be imaginative; but /
have not imaginative power enough in
me to imagine the possibility that Lord
Granville might some tim6Sd do an un-
graceful or an ungentlemanly act.
In speech he once introduced pret-
ty and a fanciful conceit, which he mod.
estly said was taken from some French
author, but which certainly gave
charming illustration of his own life and
his own type of character.
Describing his past career, he said that
in his early days he was, when he en-
tered the House Of Commons, the young
est member there; then when in conse-
quence of his fathers death he was
transferred to the House of Lords, he
was the youngest member there.
''And in fact" he added-and here
came in the pretty little conceit-''no
one ever was so young as l was then.
The words were spoken with a dash OF
tenderness and melancholy in their hu-
NOR that made them very touching.

NJ. Frissclc, who has a plantation of one
Thousand bushels in full bearing. The
Doctor said that the secret of growing
currants at II profit was in feeding them
abundantly with COW manure and ashes,
and giving them absolutely clean culture.
In growing currarts for the market it
was recommended that they be planted
on nearly level ground, of deep rich soil,
well broken and finally pulvcrizcd. The
planting should he six feet apart each
way, so rs to give room for horse cult

cssayist said that it was dclusion to
think that this fruit could be successfully
grown amid grass, weeds, clover or bur
docks, or when crowded along Il stone
wall or u rail fence; that it needed
plenty OF elbow room, air and light. and
as much fcrtilizing material aS one has Il
mind To give. With regard to market
ing, the Doctor urged that the fruit no

A Remarkable Suicide.

One of the most remarkable suicides
recorded in the annals of self destruc-
tion occurred near Chiquet, New Bruins
wick, recently. Before committing the
rash act, the self murderer, w. II. r.
Jones, dug his grave and placed rough
coffin Of his own make at the bottom.
The dirt from the grave was kept from
rolling back into the excavation by
boards held in place by trigger, to
which string was attached. Every
thing in readiness, the deliberate Mr..
jones, as subsequent deselopments re.
-xsalsd, got in the coffin, took dose of
poison and then pulled the string aud
was buried beneath tons of dirt. II is
believed to be one of the most unique
and successful instances of suicide on
record.
