NEW YoORE, July 14.—Never has there been mure opportunity for the exercise of individual taste in the details of costume. For once Fashion is most delightfully liberal, and onc may dress as one pleases, and still know that %lamode” is not ontraged. The latest sum- mer fashions are exceedingly pretty and fresh. Grenadines are as popular as cver. Indeed, s0 frequent and numerons re the orders for them that modistes are sadly perplexed to find new styles of making them. A very lovely one just completed has the front consisting of puffs of poft cardinal silk divided by folds of eatin- striped grenadine. The back is cut in Princess ehape, and has no red at all. The waist has an inscrted vest of cardinal-red silk thicily cov- ercd with rufiies of Spanish lace. ‘Another, sowewhat similar, has the red puffs replaced by tine pleatings of cream-colos faille. An ex- teedingly Leautiful ball-dress, which is being made in New York for one of your own charm- iug ladies, is of white silk and illusion. The front from throat to hem is of soft, fall illu- sion puffs, which are segmted by long, trailing sprays of fern-leaves. Imay salely atfirm that never has o more perfect imitation of nuture been effected. ~Flexible,. delicate, and graceful, they would . persuade Linnzus himscif into” believing them children of pature, not art. The back of {his dress is of dead-white silk, and has a deep box-pleated flounce, ormamented with tiny bouillonnies of tulle. A line of fern leaves furms a beautiful heading to this flounce. A wide scarf of silk aud illusion is artistically draped from the left front all over the back, nnd is caught in seyeral places with bunches of thie leaves. A bordering of fern ornaments the front of the waist, which is rather low, and cn- circles tie arm just below. the little puil of tulle und silk which replaces the sleeves. In all, it is an cxtremely tasteful dress, and should its owner read its description here, and be pleased, she will still more when she sees it con- gratulate herself that she gave her modiste tarte blanche. . Some very lovely overdresses are polonaises of ceam cashmere and other soft woolen goods. They are profusely ornamented with Bows of black velvet, and are worn over silk or velvet skirts. Frequently the bows are of the same color as the underskirt, when the latter is not black. 4 PULL-BACES™ are still popular, but they are not necessarily an ol cle o locomotion, nor do they present the same swathing appearance they lormerly did. They are simply drawn with smoothness and easc over the nips, and fall in graceful drapery ot the Dbad No bustle appears, unless under this hesd we class the skeleton skirt which supports and distends the train. All dresses are very long; not even street dresses cscape this order, and ladies who will follow the fashion and yet must do their shop- ping on foot are put to no_little inconvenience. All'the new overskirts partake to a certain ex- tent of the nature of the polonaise. A new and handsome overdress consists of tyvo long point- ed aprons which lap over each other, but are left opea for_about a qudrter of a yard in the centre. Another pretty model is suitable for any material. The front is circular, and at the lower edge are four upturncd folds which ex- tend from the side breadths. The side 50“: overlaps the back, to which it is attached by buttons and button-holes. The back is cut in two deep points and is slightly looped in the centre. A NOVELTY IN BASQULS is very peculiar, but is pronounced very accept- able. sing}c darts adjust the graceful front, which is a Joose blouse portion, fastened at the neck with a standing collar, 2od at the waist witha belt. The Oack is tight-fiting, with symmetrical side-bodies. Pleaied pockets with Luws have adressy effect, and elaborate cuffs with bows of silk ornament the handsome coat- siceve. By an odd inconsistency the principal materials for midsummer wear are of Wool, or wool 2nd sitk. The Algerlnes, a 'fpedcs of camel’s hair, are extremely pretty. Tuey are striped in blue and white, or ecrn and white, each stripe 13¢ inches e. Other Algerines have bair atripes of crimson, orange, dark and pale blue, and pink. A very beautiful variety shows au irregular, coarse line of blue, traversing a ground of sil- ver. These materials are very reasonable, rang- ing in price from 50 cents to §1.50 per yard, and measuring in width24to 27 inches. A superior woolen fabric, Vigogne, is sold at 65cents. A shade of light gray, with fine threads of dark- blue makes a decidedly stylish costume over a silk skirt of similar blue. Brocaded silks, as portions of toilettes, are in great demand. Two striking noveltics in them have ? eared. - One bas a seeded ground of the est. deepest crimson, which shows with a flame-colored tint when held to the Hight. The other design con- sists of rings within rings of decp-blue satin. Three dollars a yard isthe price demanded; the silk is 24 inches wide. Some beautiful materials for over dresses zome in emall checks and plaids, both regular ind broken. They are of pure silk, and are known as serge surats. The favorite colors in shem are black and ecru, and the latter with navy blue. A”ncw fabric for bridal-dresses has just been imported, and s most beautiful. It is arich cream-white brocade, and has 2 continuous de- sign resembling. short, delicate wayes. These latter are excecdingly lustrous, whilethe ground is dead. 5 NOVELTIES IN GRENADINES eppear almost daily. Thenewest and handsom- est are the velvet striped grenadines, which so far arc shown in only two varicties, light blue and ccru, seal brown and ecru. An inch-wide stripe of canvas grenadine is of ecru, with a nar- row line of ccru silk on each side. The next stripe is twice as wide, and has four narrow stripes of light blue velvet on a silk . ground of olue and cerm. Frioges are seen everywhere. The latest varfeties have verydecp hcadings, and when this resembles a net work it is sewed on in such a manper that only the tasscls fall beneath the goods, the entire heading often a finger decp, resting on the material. This fashion {s par- ticularly acceptable to lIadies who are the for- Lunate possessors of the deep old friuge which adorned their grandmothers. Ruflles of Ham- burg edging arc very pretty, and are_extensive- {y used upon_cambrics, batiste, and goods of that kind. Smyrna lace is much used upon ginghams and linens, and is very popular, as it washes beautifully. ‘A FAYORITE EVENING DRESS for young girls is of white organdy. These dresses are generally made over a &slip of col- ored . gilly, but_often over white net or lawn. The trimming is'a profusion of rufilesand puffs, and a very pretty effect is obtained by heading these rafiles with dried grasses, cherrics, daises, or any small flower or fruit. A great and elegant varicty exists inchildren’s clothing. A pretty costume foragirl of 3or4 bas the skirt laid in side-pleate of white swiss, sach alternate pleat being of pink silk. A baby walst, of pink " and white, trinmed with Irish guipure, and a little bonnet of pink silk, with a & bunch of margueritas, forms an exquisite dress. - Girls from 10 to 16 are their mothers in minia- ture. They wear the i?\ls‘mmc universally; itis fastencd behind, and often some suitable variation. Gabrielle models are muchcopied for strong, firm materials, like pique, while basques wre sclected for outdoor wear. stylish novel- ty for Jittle girls is a “ coat,” which is both sim- le and graceful. A pretty dress for small girls K-.us the tront simulating a plain gored skirt, worn with a saeque. At the back are three box- pleats, which begin ot the_neck and extend to the bottom of the skirt. Yoke waists of buff, pink, and blue lawn will be much worn. They are cut in square scallops, and finished with a sord of white linen, both at the bottom andat the lower edge of the yoke. Sometimes they are belted in under the skirt, but oftenest, though confined by a belt of black velvet or mo- rocco, they hang outside of the overskirt. 5 Marrig 8. PARIS. WATERING-PLACE COSTUMES. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. Pamis, July L—As all the world is on the wing, I must follow with my pen and present to view some of the attractions which are enticing Parisienncs from thelr homes. Vichy is prom- inent with {llnstrious guests, among whom are he Prince and Princess de 1a Tour d’Auvergne, Mgr. Michael, Archbishop of Syria, Princess Obuhimsky, Count Constredt and a host of otberpamesequallyrenowned. Afine theatrical performance was given there Inst evening, ‘Les lousquetaires de 1a Relne,"” which was® highly spolanded, 2ud to-morvow “Zampa” will be placed npon the stage. The most recherche toilettes are scen on every occasion, and that styled the Pecheuseis worthy of notice on ncc'oum ofitsnoveltyand elegance. Overarobe of silkof uniform color, tablier of silk netting is draped smoothly in front, slightly plaited fn _the sidcs, and last is the quadruple plait behind. On these tabliers little tassels of different colors are vario arranged, and sometimes form diagonal sm{ms about the depth of half a yard from the lower edge all around. Brown silk netting s often striped with bright-colored silk cord, and edged with lon; fn}:fie forming tas- sels, and every large tassel finis! edr:fi numer- ous small oncs. This st{le is generally placed over a skirt of one of the bright colors in the stripes of the tabllers, and produces a charming effect. The garniture of the skirt and corsage is of lace and flounces, and can be arranged ac- cording to fancy. Versailles is” just recovering from the ex- citement of - A DRILLIANT PETE given in honor of Gen. Houche, where the rank and beauty of Paris were also largely repre- scoted, and Thiers has suddenly been aroused by the unexpected arrival of several Princes and Princesses of the family of Orleans. The distinguished company were entertained with due bonor at the Chateau Barante, and, after roaming through ¥Icmrcsquc sites and visiting different objects of interest, they proceeded to the maguificent domain of Randan. This ar- rival soon became puoiicly known, and the peasantry assembled in thousands to offer their respectful salutations, which were kindly re- turned, but donbtless with conflicting remin- iscences of former days. The_ex-King of Hanover has concluded to make Paris bis permanent residence, and is now here, with the Qucen, the Prince Royal, and the Princess Frederique, nothwithstanding thegreat efforts of England to induce them to remuin in that country.” The Royal family will oceupy the Hotel of ngG@%e on the Avenue Montaigne. Archduke Charles Louis, - father of the present Emperor of Austris, will arrive fn Paris to- MOrTow. THE MUSICAL ARTISTS are holding their general annual assembly; but as wearein on sge of undisturbed eclecticism it is not possible their efforts will concentrate to arrest the decadence which has beceme an epi- demic on every hand. The Exposition des Beaux Arts closed last week after an unprofitable year. Large pictures predominated, some of which ssessed t merit, and others were exeera T le, and the same classification wasapplicable to? those of every dimension. On entering the grand salon, the eye was attracted by a huge Ganvas of Jand and offensive coloring, which represented * Mahomet II. Entering Constanti- nople,” by Mr. Benjamin Coustant. Mr. Gustave Moreau exhibited ¢ Hercule ct Thydre de Lerne” The rocks are all’ colors, the serpent all colors, and also the corpses which cover the ground, whilst that of Hercules is as variegated as the rainbow. _Truly, M. Moreau is a Parnassian who forgets himsclt among the gods. The * Galathce’’ of M. Panot possesses much merit, and also the painting of AL Detaille entitled “En_Reconnaissance.” Numerous others are worthy of mention, but more numerous are those whose lack of artistic merit’ must soon destine them to oblivion. Since the revolution in Constantinople, Oriental customs have become quite a lJa mode here, some of which are as absurd in Paris as a mod- ern paletot would be in a’barem, and, doubtless, fashionable suicides will hereafter usc a deli- cate pair of scissors to sever life and death, in imitation of Abdul-Aziz, Sultan of Turkey. AATHILDE. PLYMOUTH. A FLORAL WEDDING. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. PrryouTs, Ind., July 12.—For the last two weeks the topic of conversation, the centre of ‘hopes and fears, has been the twentieth anni- versary of the wedding of the Hon. H. G. Thayer and wife, which was to be celebrated ac- cording to the Europcan custom as a floral wedding, and never did anticipation so poorly portray that which was to be ason this occasion. Neither trouble nor expense was considered, and preparations for 600 guests were madeina princely manner. The grounds, which are spacions and beautiful, were elegantly illuminated with lanterns. Waulks were im- provised around the entire grounds; platforms for dancing and musicians crected; and scats placed everywhere for the weary. The parlors were decorated with exquisite taste with flowers everywhere, A beautiful arch of evergreens and flowers, in the centre of which was a Masonicrem- blem (Mr. Thayer being Eminent Commander Enights Templar) extended over the centre of the Plymouth Commandery Eurlor!, gnder which Mr. and Mra. T. received with graceful courtesy their ‘many long-tried friends. 2 A ‘modest reguest accompanied each invitation that no presents be offered, but friends would mnot be restrained, and many and beautiful were the ‘*floral” gifts. After the reception Mr. and Mrs. Thayer were invited to the platform in the yard, and as a ‘more permancat souvenir of the occasion, present- ed witn an elegant case of wax flowers, valued at $75. The Rev. J. J. Faude, in bchall of the friends, made the presentationina few well-chosen remarks, ‘An original poem was then read by Gen. R. Witl- iame, and to which 3r.

Yesterdny she had evidently resolyed to go 1o the top or die in the attempt, for her etforts proved almost fatal, something in this way: ‘About 6 o’clock in the afternoon she began to ascend, and succeeded in_ reaching the last step but one from the top, and was about to give & bellow_ of satisfaction, when, alas! the steps on which her hind fect rested broke through, and down went her legs through the opening, leay- ing her body stan in o nearly upright posi- tion, 20 feet above the ground.” A wowd soon gathered, but could do nothing to extricate her, and her own cndeavors to frec herself causcd the spectators to expect every moment to see the stairway fall and dash theé venturesome bo- vinetopieces, but,totheirastonishment, she,with a sudden movement peculiar to herself, freed her limbs and started down with 2 rush for safety. Ereshe reached the bottom of the steps, however, she slipped, and, falling down, came near breaking one of her forelegs, an tore away a considerable portion of the stair- way. When she once more landed on terra firma it was found upon examination that she was entirely uninjured; but it was a narrow es- cape. 3 WALTON. — Hanged by a Church-Bell. Zancaster (Ps.)

A Monster Petition Unfriendly to Queen Vic's Family. Some Antecedents of Murad V.--- Buckstone’s Benefit. How a Turkish Captain, Seeking for En- gland, Reached America, A MOXNSTER PETITION. Moncure D. Conway writes from London to the Cincinnatl Commercial: On Friday after- noon, June 16, three carrlages, with occupants somewhat unfamiliarto the police who guard the sacred precincts of Westminster Hall, alighted at the door of thht building, where the wisdom of England sitsin council. The first carriage contained Charles Bradlaugh and Mrs. Annie Besant, and was for the: rest completely filled by a very large and curious bundle which they had in charge; from the second carringe alighted two pretty young girls—the Misses Bradlaugh—to one of whom the famous iconoclast has given the pagan but pret- ty name Hypatia, these young ladics being sccompanied by Mr. Charles Watts and Mr. De Lubez; while from the third Mr. R. O. Smith and Mr. Ramsay descended. The most stalwart of the group took up the heavy buudle alluded to, the one at the head, the other at the foot, and bore it “into the hall. It looked like a somewhat corpulent corpse, bound up with shroud and cords; it really was ‘the monster petition, with 104,330 signatures, which the smiling and amiable Mrs. Besant had been cruel enough to get up in a spirit distinetly unfriendly to the grant of further moneys to the Royal family. ‘ter the papers were signed as closely as possible and pasted together, the pe- tition was 1 mile in length. When the party had dismounted, the police, who are never prepared for anything unusual, drew them into a private passage, and when Mr. ‘Bradlaugh and Mr. Watts had cntered, said no roore should cnter. But Bradlaugh isas well acquainted with popular rights as any man in England, and he promptly said, ** Seven may come in.”? “ Then,” said the alrcady perspiring policeman, Jou must go round thrm’xgh WVest minster Hall.” By all means,” said Brad- laugh, hardly concealing the fact that it wasa main part of his plan to march with his good- looking procession through the long hall and crowded corridors up to the very door of the House of Commons. Just at this crisis an energetic and flurricd lit- tle man who seemed to be in some kind of au- thority rushed upon the scenc. He was ap- alled when he saw the hnge petition, and cried in consternation, *“ Where is it to go?” At the same moment there came up from the,door a ringing cheer from sympathizers, and the little flurril::fi man cried in ‘anguish, * What is that?’? Presently the petition and its bearers emergzed into the courtyard, where now a consideruble crowd had oollectcli, and cheer after cheer rang out. Aud presently the monster petition was deposited, as fatewould haveit, right at the feet of Charles the Second. Now there was a long pole run through the petition, and it lay on the door-mat of the louse. There came out the only two working- men who have ever been elected to that body,— Mr. Macdonald and Mr. Burt. These men, tak- ing either end of the pole, bore it through the door and marched with it and deposited it on the table before the Speaker, beside the mace, quite quenching the goldenglory of that symboi to which Cromwell alluded in the historic sen- tence, “Take away that bauble!” The members drew up around the petition, stooped to look in at the ends, serutinized it all around, but some of them timidly, a&s if they snspected dynamite, There were two petitions, the big onc having 102,000 signatures, the other having 2,330. Mr. Burt, presenting the l; T, said: *Mr. Speaker, this is a petition with 102 signatures.” ~Here there was a laugh, and_half a dozen members cried out 102,000. Mr. Bu correcting himsclf, continued, ‘“with 103, signatures, praying that there may be no fur- thier advances to the Royal family until there isa full statement made of their present income.” MMr. Macdonald then offered the smaller petition. A Tory then laughed; two or three followed his example; but the laugh did not prove conta- gious, even when a pun was whispered around about the petition being “ordered to lie on the table.” The House generally received the huge document with respectful attention. The petition was known by all to be honest and boua fide, every signatary to it giving his or her exact address and trade or occupation. It is the largest petition that has Leen presented to Parliament since sixteen years ago the Northern Reform Union forwarded theirs, which was submitted to the House by the late Gen. Perronet Thompson. The petition may ‘possibly tell a little u}zgun the outfits yet to be provided for the Princess Beatrice and the Duke of Connaught, and it may be the means of moking real that which many believe to° be a pretense— that no more is to be granted to supplementthe expenses of the Prince’s visit to India. - But the bearing of this strong popular feeling—which has been_ growing up cver since Sir Charles Dilke’s _disclosures of the wasteful anachro- nisms of thc Royal houschold—will be felt by the Prince’s children. Ilowever, they will not suffer. The Queen must do something with her millions at_death, however closely she may keep them during life; and, indeed, it _may be that she will now conclude topay off the Prince’s debts, it being plain that the nation will not. MURAD V. A correspondent at Constantinople writes' to the Pall Mall Gazette as follows: Thirtecn years ago the present Sultan began to develop a strong taste for the “turf.” A fine race-course had just been made in the valley which lies to the right of the Sultan’s palacc at Kiat Hana. But amateur racing did not satisfy the Prince, and he purchased the horse Black Eagle, which duly arrived from England. This transaction cost Murad dearly, and was the com- mencement of the severity he after- wards experienced in an ever-increasing degree from his uncle. It was not enough that his place of residence was changed, and that he was made to live in the kiosks he least liked. Hisetastes were supposed to be too Eu- ropean, and as far as possible the opportunitics of his becoming Europeanized werc checked. The plan was sugeessful. But he was not co- - tirely left_to himself. He had a sister, between whoin and himseclf there existed a deep affec- tionate sympathfx ‘The Princess was married, and therefore lived in the seclusion of her own household, on the banks of the European shore of the Bosphorus. Buteven Eastern etiquette can sometimes be cluded, and the brother and sister contrived to meet at the Chiflik, or farm, of the Princess, whither she esapea as often as gosslb!e on the pretense that change of air was absolutely necessary for Lier health, and ostensibly for the purpose of enjoying with ereater liberty concerts of Turk- ish and European mausic, of which she was ex- tremely fond. Murad shared her taste, and, devoting himself to 2’ cultivation of music for its own sake, he became absorbed in this one pursuit, and prosccuted it with so much vigor and suceess that be is to-day not only guricutly familiar with all our chief operas, but has also Limself composed some Earopean airs. There seems little doubt that his visit to Europe in the suite of his uncle, the late Sultan, was an epoch in his life. The courtesy with which he was treated, more especially by the Emperor Napoleon, was noted by _ the jealous eyes of the uncle, who soon showed by a de- meanor of marked displeasure towards his nephew the course he intended to pursue, and on their return to Constantinople he was kept in strict retirement, chiefly in the Kiosk of the Palace of Beilerbey, which lies on the Asfatic side of the Bosphorus. At this time even his ‘Turkish books were removed from him, and a strict order promilgated that the Effendi was not to prosccute his study of French. For a time he was closely watched, and his apparent apathy convinced those about him that he had lost his taste for learning and his perseverance. This deslrable result achieved, a wary, wise, and kind fricnd now contrived to bring him books, which were carefully hidden in” a receptacle under his divan, and he continued his lessons in conversation and in reading. The Sultana was at' the same. time e: vcfiy rosecuting her studies, with, however, fewer culties to cun- tend with, by ‘While Murad was thits earnestly bent.on self- improvement with a single object in view, he- was made to feel* how entirely that object a peared to be set asidein the intention of the Sul- tan, and apparently in that of the European Powers. This was the time of the return visits paid to the Sultan by many royal and princely personages. of FEurope, and it was rc- marked * that Murad Effendi was kept as much in the background as possible on these occasions. For instance, I myself remember to have been witness to the milftary display at the Saraskierat in honor of the Crown_Prince of Prussia, when the young Prince Youssouff Izzeddin, a boy of not yet 16, was_called on to do the honors of the rcception. Sultan Murad is of somewhat narrow bufld, slight, of middle height, of dark complexion, and with brown eyes. Helsnow a men of nearly 40 years of £ge, and is beginning to be less slight than he was a few years ago, —— BUCKSTONE’S BENEFIT. A Iletter from London to the Boston Post says: There is- something of the historical flavor about old Buckstone—something that smacks of stage tradition and antiquity. He is actually the last of o race of actors which has passed into dramatic annals. He wason the stage with Macready and Kean, and must have secn the Kembles, O'Neils, Bannister, and Suett, whom Charles Lamb and DeQuincey tell us of. Buckstone is recalled in a hundred cari- catures and pictures of the stage of the past. He is familiar to the pages of Punch, and has acted before Wellington and Peel, and a host of their famous contemporaries. He s, moreover, & veritable curiosity; for, besides his well-sus- tained dramatic talents, he is & wit and capital story-teller, an excellent after-dinner speaker, and one of those odd geniuses who can be laughed at and laughed with at the same time, Thev have been giving the funny and merry old man a beneflt at Drury Lane, aud this occasion, as well as the ‘man it was designed to houor, must be regarded as historic. It was formally ‘g recognition of his twenty-three years’ lessee- ship and management of the Haymarket Théa- . tre, and of his public services as an actor for nearly half a céntury;’? and it was really a gen- uine manifestation of the the affection and honor in which the old comedian'is universally held among his own fraternity here. The picce chosen \vu,i)ropcrly enough, “The School for Scandal,” and I doubt'if ever go fine o display of histrionic talent was arrayed ona London stage on the same night us was the case on this occasion. No wonder the tickets were in frantic demand, and that, when the night came, it scemed as If the house would overflow jts brifa with swarming humanity. There was Phelps as Sir Peler, Henry rvin%: as Joseph Surface, Adelaide Neilson as Lady ZTeazle, Mrs. Stirling as Lady Candour, Mrs. Mecllon as dy Sneerwell, the ever-young Charles Mathews (over 70, but who would guess it?) as the rollicking Charles Surface, Ryder as Crablree, Cognlan as Careless, Denjamnin Webster as Snake, Santlcy as Sir Harry, andsweet Carlotta Addison as a supernumerary; while_ old Buck- stone himself portrayed with wonderful spirit that amateur bard, Sir Benjamin Backbite. Henry Byron wrote a_poctical address for the oceasion, which Mrs, Keeley delivered from the footlights; and Buckstone made a very happy speeeh in answer thereto, in which he indulged in fnteresting reminiscences, and spoke amus- ingly of Mrs. Kceley as his first love, * when I was a young gentleman from the provinces, cngaged at ten shillings a week.” Surely Sheridan’s masterpiece was never more nobly rendered. § TURKISO SAILORS. Lucy Hooper writes to the Philadelphia Te- egraph: The late Sultan, who was very proud of his fleet, had ordercd the, Captain of one of lis finest vessels to procced to England in or- der to convey his compliments to Queen Vie- toria on some public occasion—the birth of a grandchild, most probably. The Captain was most happy to obey the commands of his sov- ereign, only he had not the faintest idea of how to get to England. However, he started, and, as long as he'wasin the Mediterranean, all went well, bus as soon as he ot out of sight of land he was figuratively, as well as literally; oll at sea. He confided his trouble to the pilot, who advised him to fol- low a certain steamer which was then just be- fore them, and which was under way for En- gland. The Captain followed the pilot’s advice, and for some hours all went well—till nightfall, in fact; but, the night Hrovinz fogzy, he lost sight of his friendly guide, and was'ia despair. Morning dawned, the fog cleared away, and there in the horizon was visible the smoke of asteamer. The Turkish Captain hastened to bring his vessel up cinxm near to the steamer, and followed paticotly and perseveringly in its wake. One day passed, then two, then four, then a week, and still no land was visible. “J did not know that England was so far off,” sighed the unhappy Turk. Finally land npgenn:u,—u noble bay,—a vast city. The steamships cast anchor, and the au- thorities came on board. They spoke English, as was to have been expected. < “What is your business here?” asked one of }l{c officials " of the Captain of* the Turkish rigate. ®1 came to present the compliments of the Sultan to your Queen.” “What Queen?” “Queen Victoria, of course. Am I not in Eng,'l:unll” L “'In England? You are in New York!" The unlucky Captain, having lost sight of the English-bound guile during the first night of his voyage, bad_come up with a stcamship en route to the United States. And I am told that this story is literally true. LITTLE GERMAN PRINCES. The two elder sons of the German Crown Prince, now pupils at the public gymnasium at Cassel, attract much popular sympathy by their natural and unpresuming ways and their easy camarderie. The newest story abont them, which has given much satisfaction in popular circles in Berlin, where the Israelite element en- joys a certain prevalence, is that they have struck up an ardent friendship with 8 young Jewish lad, the son of a poor woman, the widow of oneof the ill-paid teaciers at a German public school. The masters gave the lad a good character, and the Crown Prince and Crown Princess are reported to have particularly ap- lauded the choice made by their ‘sous. ast Easter vacation the “two Princes begged as a favor that they might ring their schoolfellow home with ™ them to Potsdam. Permission was gladly granted, but young 8—, the schoolfellow, dedlined the in- vitation on the ground, delicately expressed, that he did not consider it right to presumc upon the passing fancy whicl the royal children had taken to him. Rcassured on this point” he still hesitated, on the ground that his mother particularly wished Lim to adhere rigidly to the Jewish Jaw in respect to meat and drivk. The Princes found themselves in a dilemmae, which they promptly communicated to their parents. The (,men Prince at once ordered that young 8—, during his stay at the palace, should be provided with orthodox Jewizhi fare, Upon this S— accepted, as a fact, spent the Easter holi- days at the Crown Prince’s palace, to the great satisfaction of his coreligioulsts, THIERS. M. Thiers is very fond of horse-racing. When he was in the Cabinet of Louis Philippe he went one day to the Champ,de Mars, accom- pavied by his wife and Mile. Dosne; but the gate-keeper refused to admit him to thereserved seats for the excellent reason that he had no ticket. M. Thiers produccd his card, but the man said that would not answer. M. Thicrs called anoflicial, who explained that he could only gain admission by paying 20{rancs. Durimy this %;uf explanation the great historian re- peated six times, * But T am M. Thiers.” Finally the wearied official leaves him, and M. Thiers pays his 20 francs like an ordinary mortal and rets his scat. ‘The members of the Jockey >lub, having heard of the incident, resolved to gend one of their number to zpologize to the Minister and tender him the money he had been compelled to pay. M. Thiers aceepted the apol- ogy. Likewise the 20 francs. PROVOCATION TO A DUEL. There was a fencing-master of the voltigeurs, in Paris, of whom a friend was taking lessons in the use of the small-sword, Oune day Montel regards his pupil severely, and says: *‘Young man, perhaps you are learning to fence 50 as to become a duelist?”? His l)upfl disclaims any such intention. “ Very well, we all know that young blood is hot. But, understand me, I'do not believe in ducling except in extreme cages, and if Ithought you were capable of going out unless under the greatest provoeation, I shuuld ceuse my lessons. 1know weare exposed to many things in the course of life. For instance, you 1night some day be passing down the strect, and meet a pekin whose looks did not please you. Of course, in such s case, there is nothing 10 be said; you must call out. ButIdon’t believe in fightiag about ts W it . THE ELDER DUMAS. Alexandre Dumas was not one of those ora- tors who so readily turn the grave-mound into a rostrum. When Frederick Soulic was buried, they asked Dumas, on the ground, to pronounce the funeral oration. ‘Impossible!” he replied, ] have not the heart to make pretty phrases ‘here.” Anthony Beraud had prcpared a long speech, and said to Dumas: “I “will speak, but you are the most famous person present, and cannot ayoid saying something.” “Well,” said Dumas, “I will begin, and you must interrupt me.” Dumas began: “By the side of this tomb where repose the mortal remains of him whom we all mourn—"" Beraud sprang for- ward. ¢ Tears choke his utterance!” he eried; ¢ the tears of Alexandre Dumas on the grave of Frederick Soulic! What tribute mMmore " elo- uent?? and he procceded to reel off the ora- tion he had prepared two days before. —————— Saved by a Capary. : The dwelling-house of George Bockius, of Little Britaln, Pa., narrowly escaped destruction by fire on Wednesdsy night week. During the night Mrs. Bockius was awnkened by loud and pecaliar screams from her csnary bird, which hung in its cage in the kitchen. Aronsing Mr. Bockius, they listened for a few minutes, when o moise was heard as of the fall of the cage to the floor, and Mr. Bockius hastened down stairs. On arriving ot the kitchen, he found the room on fire, the flames having spread around the ceiling and burned off the string that secured the bird-cage. By tho ap- plicagion of water Mr. Bockins succceded 10 5uD- duiigthe flames.
