III ventured to put forth any claim to
this peculiarly royal prerogative, nor
did either King Louis Philippe or
King Louis XVIII. neither of them
having undergone the ceremony OF
coronation and sanointment, which
seems to have been considered as in
dispensable to the possession of these
healing virtues.
King Louis XVIII, / may add, was
himself a terrible sufferer from scrofu-
lous maladies, and had he ventured to
exercise the privilege it would natur-
ally have been remarked that being
unable to cure himself, 1t was i'm
probable that his touch could heal
others, but that, on the contrary, it
was likely to do more harm than
good.
In Spain and Portugal the touch of
the monarch's hand is still credited by
the masses of the people with possess
ing the power of healing sickness, and
nothing is more strange at Lisbon
than TO watch the crowd of cripples
and victims of every kind of human
ills thronging the steps leading up to
the main entrance of the church
whore the sovereign happens to be
worshipping, awaiting his departure
in the hope that in passing he may
lay his royal hand upon them and
thereby heal them.
In Great Britain the custom died
out with the last Catholic monarch,
the latest instance of imposition of the
kings hand on record being toward
the close of the reign of King James
II, who died in exile in France.
In Germany, Scandinavia, Russia
and Austria, the popular belief in this
virtue Of the sovereign has come to an
end. The same may be said of Italy,
the last king to claim miraculous
curative powers being King Francis
Ii, of Naples. who now lives in exile
at Paris, and who figures in such a
contemplate manner as the liking of
Illyria" in Alphonse Daudet's novel,
THE King in Exile. "-MarquiSe de
Fontenoy IN the Philadelphia Press.

WITH o single breath last night,
David B. Hill dispelled the cloud of
Republican lies with which it was
sought to delude the voters as to the
true internal condition Of the Demo.
cratic party. He is in line for the
National ticket, not merely as a mat
ter Of e~xpediency, but ON principal.
He agrees with Grover Cleveland on
every issue Of the campaign. He is
with him in his views on the tariff,
and he joins him in the most vigorous
condemnation of the Force Bill. In
short, Senator Hill is a Democrat.
