The proof, therefore, is given that not
only does the car not wish for the
political friendship OF Germany, but lie
seems to wish personally to be on bad
terms with the emperor OF Germany.
For this course there arc two reasons.
First, the car cannot forget the man
ner in which the emperor spoke to the
czarina during the last voyage to st.
Petersburg. The czar is n family man
in every n OF the phrase. lie treats
hiswife with the most profound respect.
Emperor William, one evening, in
the presence OF the c%zarina, in an i'm
proper manner delivered himself OF
some messroom jokes, and instead OF
apologizing when the ~czarina looked
coldly at him, he stupidity continued
his stories. From thai day, and even
while Emperor William was the guest
OF Russia at Peterhof, the car has
spoken to him as little rs possible.
And his sentiments have not changed
since. Recently, for political reasons,
the emperor OF Russia wished for an
alliance with France. There is certainly
known TO be q paper in existence which
he signed for reasons best known to
himself, although they may not be
comprehensive to the public. But
whatever engagements he has entered
into he will undoubtedly fulfil. He
will avoid everything likely to hurt the
feelings Of France. Tho grand duke,
now in Paris, said. "My brother is like
a rock. and what has been said is the
truth"

wished to show the m~tipathy with
which William II. inspires him. In
ono month he has crossed Germany
twice without exhibiting Il desire to soc

peror William had offered to pay his
respects to Emperor Alexander ut Dant.

the weather was SO bad that the Polar

Aaron Burr was by nature and training
a man of extraordinary self control. He
allowed no circumstance to throw him of
his balance. An aneedote told by Rufus
Choate TO the late Richard II. Dana, re-
corded in Mr.. Dana's DIARY" illustrates
the callousness which aided Burr SO great
" in controlling himself. Several years
after the death Of Hamilton-killed by
Burr in duel-Burr visited Boston, and
Mr.. Devereux, of Salem, paid him some
attentions. The visitor was taken TO the
Boston athenaum where, while the two
men were walking through the gallery OF
sculpture, Mr. Deyereux happened to catch
sight of a bust of Hamilton.
The thought flashed across his mind that
Burr might not care to be confronted with
the sight OF the features of the man he had
slain. But no; Burr was undisturbed He
also espied the bust and although Mr..
Devereux had instictiYely turned away he
walked up to it and said in a loud tone'
"Ahl Here is Hamilton Then passing
his fingers along certain lines Of the face
he added, ''There was the poetryP Ham

Monday morning Magistrate Fulmer was

And with that he and his bride made
their way into the street.
Magistrate Fglmer still holds the certif-

The bleaching and tireprooing of textile
fabrics is now claimed to be practicable by
much simpler means than have hitherto
been resOrted to, good results being found
to follow the use of a solutiOn-per yard of
the fabric-of two and a half pounds of
chloride of sodium dissolved in seven and
a half pounds Of water The invention, it
is asserted, is particularly applicable to the
case of tagging made from jute butts, be
ing in fact far superior to any heretofore
produced from such material, in that it is
lighter in color as well as much superior
in appearance.
By applying the solution while the goods
are on the calendar it does not come in con
tact with the spinning and weaving ma
chinery, which would cause them TO rust,
and By applyingit while the goods are on the
calendar, and just before being rolled up, a
very thorough and even distribution of the
chemical through the goods is obtained
The rolls are stored away as they come
from the calendar, and in damp c0ndi-
ton, produced by the application of the
chemical, the result Of this being that a
chemical action takes place in the tightly
rolled goods which very materially inn
proves the color Of the article and adds
much to its value, but practically nothing
to the cost Of its production. The method
affects the bleaching Of the fabrics, and
renders them whittier than they would be if
the same solution were applied and the
fabrics dried before being formed into bun
dies or rolled up. Bleaching the fabrics is
not the only result Of this process, for it
also renders the fabrics fireproof, and
makes them softer and more pliable.-New

1 only know one good humored anecdote
Of Swift. 1t is very slight, but it is fair to
tell it, He dined one day in the company
of the lord keeper, his son and their two
ladies', with Mr. Caesar, treasurer of the
navy at his house in the city. They hap
pened to talk of Brutus, and Swift said
something in his praise, and then as it
were, recollecting himself, said, Mr.. Caesar,
beg your pardon" One can fancy this
occasioning pleasant ripple of laughter.
There is another story 1 cannot lay my
hands on to verify, but it is to this effect;
Faikner, Swift's Dublin publisher, some
years after the deans death, was dining
with some friends, who rallied him upon
his odd way of eating some DISH think
asparagus. He confessed Swift had told
him it was the right way, therefore they
laughed the louder, until Faulkner, grow
ing a little angry, exclaimed, Il tell you
what it is, gentlemen, if you had ever
dined with the dean, you would have eaten
your asparagus as he babe you. Speaker
