WELLINGToy's FAMOUS BALL.
The Duke and Duchess of Rich
mond were living in fine hotel on
the Rue de la Blanchissere, which
stood on its own grounds and had
q fruit and flower garden extending
to the city rarnparts. Their graces
moved in all the society Of Brussels,
and entertained great deal. The
duchess, who had issued 220 invita-.
tions for the ball, proposed to recall
them when she heard that Ma
poleon's army was advancing. But
the Duke Of Wellington, to prevent
alarm, requested that the ball might
take place.
Nevertheless, many English fam
lilies were frightened away from
Brussels, and post horses were kept
harnessed in the Duke Of Rich
uQnd's stable, in case bad news
make It advisable Tor MS cnIiurcn ~
be sent to Antwerp. The majority
Of the people Of Brussels were vio-
lent Bonapartists, and were prepared
to entertain Napoleon in great style
should he force the British army h
retreat and enter their city IL
triumph. III
So it was that the Duke of WI
lington and many of his offict .
went to the ball after the business
Of the day had been attended to.
While the merry couples were fly
ing around a dispatch from the
front was handed to Wellington.
He asked the Duke of Richmond for
a private room where he might con-
suit with some of his generals who
were present. The duchess dress
ing room was the only convenient
room safe from intrusion.
Candies were hastily lighted on
the dressing table, at which We'll
lington sat with map before him,
and having explained certain points
to his staff they all rejoined the
company. They left the house
before 10 o'clock and succeeded in
dong SO without attracting any at
tention. Very few, if any, of the
dancers guessed how near at hand
was the crisis which was to decide
the fate of Europe, and it never
entered the heads of the young girls
that some Of their partners were
dancing the "dance of death. -

In Ills small slave schooner
from the coast Of Africa, bDund for
Virginia, was blown from her course,
toward the north, and putsi in at the
port of Boston.
The cargo consisted ofllittle else
than a few families Of Congo ne
groes destined for the new pIanta-
tions in Virginia.
New Englanders did not feel then
any special adherence I'd slavery.

1T was not regarded with disfavor,
and the SLAYER found little difficult

Lemuel Clark, owner of a large tract
of land on the Merrimac river, in
New Hampshire. Three families
of negroes were bought by him and
taken to his estate in the wilder
ness.
Once the tenant of an English
baronial estate himself, he inclined
to play the baron on his New Hamp-
shire domain. A great stockade
was built upon the eminence over
looking the Merrimac, and with
in the stockade, upon the crown
of the hill, stood his large log
house. Lower down, but with
in the stockade, were three cabins
of the slave families and the more
pretentious houses of the families
of English laborers who accompan-
led Mr.. CLARK to the New World.
Back from the stockade and stretch
ing to the foot of some cliffs that
formed the abutment of range oi
low hills was wide expanse Of level.
cleared land, on which the estate
raised its corn and potatoes.
Beyond the few charred stump'
that marked the edge of the clear
ing was the forest stretching ava.
as far as the eye could reach.
As the Merrimac was one of th,
highways of marauding French an,
Indians, the stockade was yer,
strongly built, and from embrasnre
in its walls projected three small
brass cannon commanding th
sweep Of the river in every direction
No fleet Of canoes could safely pas
the stockade by day. The import
ance of the place was so well recoe
nized that Mr.. Clark held colo
nial commission as major and th
stockade was officially styled For
Clark.

Switohmen Intend to Inaugurate = Ma
tional Strike Next May.
BUFFALO. N. Y, Oct. 28.-The switch
men of the country are preparing for a
monster strike next May, expecting to
cripple the worlds fair business of the
railroads and force them to concede the
demands of employees.
"The Buffalo strike and the lesser
ones which have occurred this year."
said Secretary Heimerle, of the Switch
mems union, "are but preludes to the
great strikes of 1898. 1t will be strike
the like Of which never has been seen
and which will extend all over the
country. The railroads will be making
enormous profits. The people would
not want the worlds fair injured and a
clamor would arise which would force
the roads to a settlement. The plans
all made for gigantic uprising and the
demands this fall are to test the atti-
tude of the railroads towards US. The
Buffalo switchmen are biding their
time until next spring, when they will
take part in the strike which will ex-
tend from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf.
The uprising will be national"
