(Miss Grundy in Harper's Bazar.] ‘The death here recently of more than one who have, and whose immediate connections have, for many years been in the service of the gov- « ernment, makes a sketch of some of thosz In | Whose familles official positions seem heredi- | tary, appropriate.

Judge Hoar, who was Attorney General, and his brother, the pre- sent Senator from Massachusetts, and Governor Baldwin, who was a Senator from Connecticut, are cousins of Mr. Evarts.

When Lord Palmerston complimented the late King of the Belgians on the superlative wisdom with which he had managed his rich and cosy little kingdom that astute sovereign answered that his theory and practice of statecraft were equally simple. “The whole of my philosophy,” said his Majesty, “is not to meddle. When a Prime Minister comes to me for advice or direc. tion I ask him whether he can command a Mamentary majority. about my business on the subject. he sa his business, and my vourse 1s equally straight before me.” Some time afterwards, fn the troublous days of IMs, some demagocues of the extreme party in m8 appear ave for- gotten the sort of king with whom they had to deal, and surrounded his country house at La»- ken toask that he should abdicate or otherwise cease from ruling over them. On the following morning, therefore, as soun as he was up, lis Majesty invited several of his most influentt tl Subjects to discuss the question with him, and Stated his own case with refreshing frankness. “I have,” observed the ‘King, “saved a litile money in your service; I have an annuity as widower of a British Princess, and I have a lite | interest in a place called Claremont, which }s | really a nice house In England, within a_pleas- | ant ride of the metropolis of London.

The coat is elther a single- breasted sack to button three or four buttons, orelse the regular English jacket with flaps snd pockets. ‘The vest buttons very high, and the trousers are narrow. Dress coats are not changed in shape, but are worn shorter than last year. They are made as plainly as possible, without binding or cords; the vest of the same fine black cloth 4s cut low, like the coat, to button three but- tons. White vests are not worn with full- dress swallow-tall coats, but are used in the Summer with the Prince Albert frock-coats as part of semi-dress sufts. White vests are usually double-breasted, Spring overcoats are single-breasted sa: made of dark brown or olive Melton, and are faced with silk on the edges, . SHIRTS, CUFFS, COLLARS, ETC. Gentlemen's shirt fronts are made of three thicknesses of linen laid perfectly smooth, with- out tucks, Some have corded edges, but’ plain edges are most used. They are but two eye- lets for stud, Instead of three formerly required when vests were cut lower. Full-dress shiris are also as plain as possible, entirely without embroldery, and these have but one eyelet, for a jewehed stud, as very little jewelry is worn by men of taste. The cat’seye diamond is fashionable for the single stud. When two or three studs are preferred, they are of white enamel on gold, made to resemble nen but- tons, orelse they are of yellow. gold, and very small.

The most fashionable The Religious Press on West Point. ‘West Point has given us some great men; and it has given us many small ones. There is a general impression that the kind of education received there unfits the students for large views, large feelings and large atms.

His instincts are lofty, and if directed wisely would lead him to become one. But the fates are against him. His education at West Point is narrow.

To SUPPOSE THAT THE FRENCH bonnes brought back from “Yurrup” by recently returned Matres familias, and whose white caps and aprons have attracted so much attention of late in the streets near the principal hotels, are em- ployed for the purpose of “learning” the chil- dren French, is a mistake. Monsleur Henri de Charville, a genial assistant at the Matson Doree, is entitled to first place for the discovery of the error. He was sauntering up Market street near the Palace the other morning, on his way to where his short gingham jacket hangs on a peg tehind the door, when he spled a brace of female kids with hair-banged foreheads and black stockings, in charge of a damsel, the roseate hue of whose cheeks, the quiet gray of whose skirts, the delicious whiteness of whose cap and apron—in Short, the completeness of whose Parisian “get-up” brought him back to the Boulevards, the Champs Elysee, the Jardin des Plantes. and all the rest of them.
