GOVERNMENT SEALS.

The Washington post says that only
The Government seals are correct from
the heraldic point of view, namely, the
great seal of the United States and the
new seal of the Department of Agrieul-
ture. All the Executive departments
have seals of their own, designed with
more or less regard for the laws usually
controlling such devices: but not one of
them satisfies the. requirements of her
aldry For example, some of the eagles
have their heads turned to the right.
and the mounted courier on the seal of
the Post Office Department is galloping
to the right THIS is horribly wrong, in
asmuch as the regulations of the heralds
demand that all animals Of whatever
description shall face to the left. Then
again, the parallel lines on some Of the
correct directions. In heraldry horizontal
lines indicate blue. which is the proper
color for the background of shield
whereas If they so other ways they
mean other colOrS.

has promulgated a decree abolishing all
days of abstinence in the year except
FRIDAYS. even during Lent, the decree be-
ing made applicable only to poor per-
sons and their families, il was learned

Reverend Dear Sir-In answer to a
petition from the Most Reverend Arch

obligation and the lesser reasons which
are sufficient to justify a dispensation.

removes the ban placed by some priests

duct funerals in accordance with their

assumed such proportions that some OF
the leading officers and members of the

OUR FLAG IN EUROPE.


BERLIN, July s, 1895.-A despatch from
st. Petersburg via Eydtkuhnen, on the
Russian frontier of Prussia. says that
on July the American cruiser Mar
blehead was gaily bedecked with flags
and fired a salute Of twenty-one guns.
During the day the sailors were allowed
to go ashore Admiral Techichatsoff,
United States Minister Breckenridge,
Consul General Jones, M. Won Wahl,
Prefect of st. Petersburg, and many
other prominent persons visited the ship.
There is great deal Of comment
among American residents and in Rus
sian official circles upon the failure of
Minister Breckenridge to obtain the re-
ception of the American naval officers
by the Gear and the Russian State Off
Gals. particularly in view of the fact
that it is so seldom that American war
ships visit the Russian capital.
1t is regarded as certain that If Mr..
Breckenridge had made the request of
Prinee Lobanoffr Restovski, Russian
minister of Foreign Affairs, the latter
would have arranged matters so that
Captain O'Neil and his officers would
have had an audience with the EN-
peror. When the American sailors were
ashore they were treated by the people
in the most friendly manner

SWEOEN'S CROWN.
The Nobility Look Down Upon It's Present
Wearer,

King Oscars appeal TO the Swedish
people to wOrthily celebrate in Decem-
ber next the tri-centenn1al anniversary
of the birth OF King GuStavuS AdolphuS,
the great hero king of Sweden and one
of the first and strongest champions of
Professionalism. has. according to the
Chicago Record, had the effect of call
ing to mind the fact that there is not 4
drop OF the blood of that monarch in
the veins of the present reignlng fam
lily. excepting in those of the crown
princess, and, through her. in those of
her children, duke of Scani, duke of
Sundermanie and the duke of Westman
land. For the mother of the present
grand duke of Baden-fa ther of the
crown princess of Sweden-was
daughter of that prince of Vasa who
died toward the end of the fifties and
who was the last male descendant of
the Nasa dynasty.
This Prince Vasa was the only son of
King GuStavuS ". who was depoSed
by his subjects and driven into exile,
the general impression being that he
was insane his mental faculties wrecked
by the terrible assassination of his
father by Count Ankerstrom at ball
given in the royal palace. After his
deposition the Swedes called his uncle
to reign over them. and as the latter
was childless and there was no other
Nasa prince save the deposed king and
his son, they proceeded to elect French
Field Marshal Bernadotte, of peasant
birth and married to the daughter of
a French stock broker, crown prince.
1t is he who was tl,e grandfather of
the present king.
1t may be added that the Swedish
nobility, which is very proud and has
an immense idea of its own Importance
and lineage, looks down upon King
Oscar 'as "A parvenu, and attends his
court with more or less evident re-
luctance. They still revere the mem
ory of the Vasa kings, and there is
scarcely one of them who, when trav
cling through Germany, does not make
point of calling at Dresden to pay his
or her respects to Queen Garcia of
Saxony, now the only surviving daugh-
of the last Prince NaSa.
