The End of a Duchess,


 Mime. d'Abrantes did not seek her hero Napoleon on his brief return from exile. Such meeting would have been trying even to her "rare mental flexi- bility." She was in Rome during the Hundred Days, surrounded" accord ing to the Nouvelle Geographic Gener- ale, "by artistic and literary friends"
 Few and meagre are the particulars which can now be gleaned of her later for bridging the gulf between the Par isian queen of society and the broken down wretch of Chorley's lurid sketch. The revolution of 1880 found her at the Abbaye-aux-Bois, whither the total loss of her fortune had compelled her to retire. She says that on the reap pearance of the tri-color she was "saisie dune de ces joles sans mesure qui re- velent le ciel," but 1t in no way alleviat- ed her melancholy fate. From 1881 to 1885 her memoirs were in conrse of pub- lication. She wrote some other books and many stories and papers, some of which appeared in the Revue de Paris. | Mnne.r d'Abrantes, reduced to utter destitution. died at Chaillot on June r, 1889, two days after being admitted to small hospital, having been re- fused shelter in one of more preten- sions without payment in advance. Abandoned by all whom she loved," (which would seem to imply that her children had forsaken her,) 'Fbut re- ceiving the last consultations of re- ligion from the hands of the archbishop of Paris.''-Temple Bar.

The successful evangelist nowadays knows how to attract attention. In Cincinnati the other day H. o. Wells, an evangelist, had a number of plants in various courses of development on the stage, with which he compared the state of the sou. of man in its different stages of santificatioE and progress to complete spirituality. The introduction of a child's coffin to emphasize his re- marks relative to death partook a good deal of the spectacular, and tended to throw a hush on his audience. At first many of the women feared tha. there might be a tiny corpse inside. But they were agreeably relieved on this point when the strains of Home, Sweea Home" were heard enanating from a music box within.

The protection of the deer in Vermont will extend until 1900, but the farmers say that if there were not little hunt ing the animals would 50 increase as to be a nuisance before then. They have been eating some of the crops this autumn, are often found in orchards consuming fallen fruit, and an agricul- turist in Windsor county complains that they have destroyed his entire crop of buckwheat. Several of the lawns have been domesticated and are as tame as COWS and sheep, not to say a good deal worse about getting into gardens. High fences will keep cattle out, but not deer. An elderly farmer in Vermont says that one reason for the great increase in the number of deer in northern New Eng land is the disappearance of beasts of prey.

It isn't all cotton in the South this year, though there is enough of it. It is now possible to state something like the exact fact in regard to the remark able increase of the corn crop in the South The total crop in fourteen south ern States, including Maryland, amounts to 4s3, ,423 900 bushels. That is about s,oOO,OOO bushels more than was raised in the same States last year; it is, in fact. the largest yield ever report cd in that section. Singularly enough also, the greatest proportional increases are in the cotton States. Thus South Carolina increases her crop more than fifty per cent. and Mississippi adds over 10, O0O, 900 bushels to her last years yield. In fact, three-fourths of the en- tire increase is fin the five States of Ala bama. South Carolina, Mississippi. Tex as and Arkansas, while the yield in the border States of Maryland, West vir- ginia and Kentucky somewhat falls off.
