A Question of Spelling.

A veracious and amusing foreign
Office anecdote was, writes a corre-
spondent, brought to ones mind
laetly by tho numerous news
paper boards all over London an
nouncing the result of the Cesare-
wich stakes. The queen, whose
accuracy is proverbial, very rightly
objects to the customary manner Of
spelling tsar and tsarevich in Eng
lish-i @. car and czarevitch-as
giving totally incorrect rendering
of the hard-sounding Russian z.
More than once had her majesty's
wishes on the subject been conveyed
to the offending foreign Office clerks.
At length Sir Henry Ponsonby wrote
in despair: 81 really do not know
how the word is written myself; per-
haps you might discover by sending
to New market to inquire" Unfor-
tunately the sporting world, to judge
from the photography, appears to
labor under tho impression that the
Cesarewich stakes are connected not
with the Russian tsars, but with the
Roman Casars.- Westminster Ca
