DR.. Miguel, the Prussian Minister
of Finance, however, in his speech
on the subject in the Dict, while do
ing his utmost towards polite concil-
iation of the Conservatives. was
careful to bind the government rs
close as possible to an indefinite
policy. Practically, however, there
is no doubt that the Bundesrath will
empower the government to invite
the powers to send representatives to
a monetary conference.
Finding no support for the bill
advocated by Count kanitz, looking
to 4 State monopoly Of the sale of
grain, the Argrarians regard a double
standard as the first of the big rem
cdicS which they claim the govern
ment owes them, and they win be

1t is interesting to note that Prince

of Senator Irby when the newspaper

HENRY CLAY.
GEx Rli. WADE HAMrrON's STORY or Two
STATESMEN At WHIST

said General Wade Hampton, "rcfers
to Henry Clay. lie was frequent
visitor at my fathers house in South
Carolina. Both Clay and my father
were ardent whist players, and moth
ing was more to their minds than the
recollection of Il brace of gentlemen
equally addicted to whist, and then
the quartet would play for hours.
While the name Of whist may serve
to imply game where silence reigncd,
my father and Clay didn't play whist
that way. They cxultcd audibly
over a success, and did not hesitate
when they were playing partners to
violently point out mistakes the other
had made, and attributed defeat to
the others ignorance and utter lack
Unnatural intelligence. Indeed, on
occasions particularly trying, they
were even known to apply hard names
to one another. This they did in no
slandcrous spirit, but to hnghten UP
and sharpen the wits Of the other to
the Improvement of his play. AS
they were sitting down to ~amc rs
partners one evening Clay remarked
Its Il great outrage the way we
talk to each other, and my idea now,
atthe outset, is for each OF us to put
up $50 to belong to the one who is
first called hard names bv the other.
lfyou assail me the money is mine:
if | forget myself, you take it."
"My father readily agreed. lie
felt in Il mild agreeable mood. lie
was confident he would never again
be prey to the slightest impulse to
speak harshly to his dear friend
Clay. And, besides, it was his rccol-
lection that Clay was the man who
ragged and did the loud talking. SO
my father chccrfully placed the $40
on t. top Of Clpy'>, lie thought it
wou!d be Il good lcsSoG to the Bluc
Grass orator to lose it. AS they
proceeded with the game Clay male
some excessively thick-hcadcd and
ilI-adviscd plays. lie l"d the wrong
cards; he tr,mpcd the wrong tricks:
he did everything iGiotic in whist that
he we'll could. Ny fathers blooI3

the "tal1c" wus Il little tlacc, or carp,
and while being photographed it had
been held very close to the lens. Tho

Ono of lny authorities was onco en-
gagged by both sides iii u law case. A
company, which | will call the City
Lands improvements company, wanted to
abolish Il certain court leading from
Lombard street to King William street
and werc willing to establish i'll its stead
passage through ono of their own
buildings. The company's plea was that
the court was Il dingy, not to say dirty,
one, and, furthermore, that it was haunt
ed by loafers of questionable character.
Counsel for tho other side, representing
merchants having Offices in the court,
stoutly maintained that the passage WAS
well lighted and emincntly respectable
Photographs were handed in from both
sides The first photo showed Il marrow,
disreputable looking alley, strewn with
rubbish and fallen boarding. Tho other

photographs were tulion for the house Of

Here is another case: Tho Shuttle
Machine company vacated their prem
Uses in Cheapside, and another sewing
machine dealer moved i'll. In order to
trade upon the established reputation of
tho company the second tenant left tho
old name on tho windows and over tho
door, but added the word "late' in very
minute characters for his own protec-
ton The Shuttle company waxed
wroth, brought an action and engaged

was produced In court, it was handed to

One Of the interesting features of the

was coal black steel His visor was

The weight of these two suits Of ar-
NOR is SO great that, Notwithstanding
the most gigantic men of the imperial
guard being selected to don them, tho
one on foot who officiated at the obse-
Quics of Emperor Nicholas l fell dead
from exhaustion on reaching the church
