QUEEN VICTORIAS DAILY LIFE. How She Lodges, Feeds and Receives Mer Guesis—Her Hours for Busi- ness. Cortespondence of the New York Sun. The habitual precautions for isolating the Queen from the curiosity and demonstrations of her subjects, and making the transit from one toyal residence to another indnastically seciuded, were perhaps even @tensified during the Jour- ney of Friday last. With one solitary exception, the stations were virtually unapproachable while the Queen's spe train was in sight.

Apropos of the journey of the roval tamily of England, it is not perhaps generally known that its members, althougn endowed with ¢ siderable civil lists. do not bear the expen: of their Continental excursions, in so far t the budget is charved to the amount of £40 for every trip across the Chanuel, e to the Beamer that has carried them across.

The dull. regular, uninteresting routine of her majesty's daily life, so trying even to the enduring patience of her last remaing daughter, has once more begun. unrelieved save by the homely, almost lowly incidents recorded above, and which constitute the only communton be tween the nation and herself. Time was, even after the castle had been virtually closed for the festivities, that guests were bidden to it for all three days’ visit so dear to the British heart, and during their stay enjoyed the privilege of revelling in the priceless accumulation off tures, tapestries, oblects of arts, rare books, Farer engravings. and unrivaled specimens of ehina—one little table with rose Dubarry @allions alone being estimated at £25.00. Now the invitations rarely extend over one evening and night, and, although they are to all intents and purposes commands, sometimes only reach the recipients a few hours beiore the time when their attendance is required A fast train brings you down from Paddington station in 40 minutes. As no carriages are Ditually sent to meet you, you have to trust Yourselt and servant to flies or cabs to reach the castle. Pages ofthe Qu the best families in the kingd take charge of you and, consulting a written list, conduct you to the apartments set aside for your use. These consist in a complete suite of rooms, the only fault being that in winter they are apt to be in- sufficiently warmed, as the Queen is constitu- tionally averse to heat. Shortly after the arrival of a guest, he receives the visit of the master of the household, Sir J. C. Cowell, who brings him an invitation to have tea withoneor other of the ladies in waiting. Full court dress is de riguewr for the dinner. As early a3 8 o'clock the gusts assemble in the great gallery which rans around the quadrangle, and which forms an immense picture gallery, ever opened to the ral public, even at those periods when admittance to the state apartments is allowed during the Queen's ab- sence from Windsor. At half-past 8. accom- panied by the Princess Beatrice, her Majesty makes her appearance, and. with a few brief words to the company, leads the way to the dining room. If there are sixteen to dinner it isserved in that apartment. one side of which is a broad window, ope on the court. The walls are hung with tapestry. two paintings oaiy adorn the apartment—a por- trait of the Queen, by Angeli, and one of the Duchess of Edingburgh. When en famille the Queen dines in one of the octagonal towers, where each of the eight windows frames a per- fect view of the park. There ts little or no conversation at these! state repasts. The Queen not unfreqnently | Jeans forward to whisper a remark to herdaugh- | ter in a fashion which. to say the least. ts dis- composing to the uninitiate: sides the names of the disnes, gives that of the chef who has concocted them. The innu- Mumerable footmen are all in gala livery, butlers and pazes in costume, and the so- called “clerks ot the kitchen” In black coats and knee breeches, stand at the sidevoards to carve. After the dinner. which fs short, the Queen Fetires with the ladies—a mere formality, for the men follow three minutes later. The members of the court and household have also finished their meal, taken in the great hall opening out of the first of the three great saloons, and which fs used by the Queen only when her party ex- ceeds thirty. Sir J.C. Cowell presides at that tabie. The post-prandial ceremonies are promptly gone through, her Majesty exchanges a few sen- tences with each of her guests, who remain standing the whole time, and at the end of half an hour, at the outside, withdraws t ate rooms. which are always brilii i and where she finishes the evening conversing with her daughter, reading, writing, or being read to. Meanwhile her visitors are at liberty to play whist or listen to music in the red and green drawing-rooms. The gentlemen can be- take themselves to billiards or to the smoking- Yooms. The latter are provided even for the servants. but it is strictly forbidden to smoke in any other apartment, public or private Every visitor knows that he wiil see his royal hostess no more, and that he is expected to leave the castle by 11 next morning. He can take his breakfast in his rooms or down stairs, as be prefers. jesty as her very eary meal either alone or wit some prince of blood royal. At 9 she drives through the fom. which are of great extent and auty and strictly private, to Frogmore, where she alights and, weather permitting, enters a tent spread on the lawn for her use. There she reads her letters and the ewspapers. The latter have been pre- viously caretnliy scanned by one of her ladies in ssares which should meet her She scrupulously ab- Under a and waiting and the p eye marked in red pencil stains from glancing at any others. second tent she then attends’ to busin buiky packages of correspondence are ope before her. A mounted groom constantly rides backward and torwar frying her instruc- tions to her private secretary at the castle. She | herself returns thither for lunch, after which the | afternoon fs filled up with walking and driving with Princess Beatrice until the evening again begins. Amid the pomp, magnificence, and lavish display of the great royal citadel in that gor- geous pile filed with a wealth of art. in con- trast with the exorbitant expenditure of stables, Kitchens. and countless attendants, page: grooms, domestics and gardeners, petty econ- omies are practised which many ab lnpover- ished householder would feel ashamed to at- | tempt. One instance may suffic Visitor is entitled toa fresh supply ot candles. It would be unseemly to leave In his rooms any that had once been used. so Sir J. C. Cowell, in @ laudable spirit of thrift, has invented a email machine which dexterousiy restores to the wick its virgin freshness. The master of the household is so proud of this ingenious device that he never faiis to point out how satistacto- fily it works to any of his private triends who obtain permission to inspect the offices. The wax scrapins are collected and returned to the candle manufactory. where they are remodeled into new candles and sold back to the queen's household at reduced rates.

From the Chicago Tribune. “You see, Martha got in the habit of sitting up for me at an early age, and she can’t break it off. I couldn't persuade her to go to bed and mind her own business, so I studied on the mat- ter. We live in one of the center houses of a block of five-story-and-attic buildings. There's seutties in the roofs of all of them, and I per- suaded Mr. Greenup, who lives In the adjoining house, to let me in his house last night about 1 o'clock, and I went up through his scuttle and over to mine, and so down into our bedroom. I could see Martha, from the head of the stairs, sitting in the front room eyeins the ciock with a | look that was a very tart ‘chromo. But I an- dressed and quietly got in bed, and there I lay waiting developments. Every now and then I'd hear Martha give a short fidgety cough. Then I'd hear her get up and prance around the room a little, and by and by go to the tront win- dows and slam the shutters. Atter I'd lain there about an hour, I heard her get up and go stand out on the front steps for a good five inmutes. Then she came in and slam- med the door and locked it and commenced coming up stairs. Every other step she'd say: ‘Ob, the wretch. Won't I give it him! I know where he is! I know where he ts! He needn't think to deceive me! Oh, the villian!’ “Bout the time she had nearly got to the landing I think she must have seen the light streaming out of the door that I'd lett ajar. I could hear | ber stop, and then I commenced tc snore. I was | afraid to look, you kuow, but I could feel her | cautiously come up to the door and look in, | Well, sir, 'd have given my pension from the war of 1776 to have seen her about the time she saw it was the.

Don't | yoa remember when! told vou not to go to | sleep again in the rocker, but to come upto bed! and I turned over and professed to go to again. he never made any reply, but acted ina dazed, bewildered sort of way, and when she ‘ot to bed I could tell she didn’t sieep a wink | for three hours, his morning it was fun to watch Martha.

From the New York Times. Competition tor the highest public honors in this country has come to be largely a matter of | purchase, if not with money then with political | pledges. In the gossip of Washington it has | been given out that certain men had no chance for bigh appointments because they made no contributions toward the election of the in- coming President. It is assumed that positions are not to be bestowed for eminent fitness, but as a reward for political services. We do not | believe the new President will act on this prin- | ciple. but that it is assumed that he must show how strong @ hold it has obtained in our pol- | ities. | There are men sitting in the United States | Senate to-day who hold theirplaces by direct purchase. In some cases of small western states which abound in mining and railroad mil- Honaires there is scarcely a chance for doubt that | they paid for their election directl¢ or indirectly with money. These men, in dealing with ques- tions affecting railroads, public lands and the | coinage of silver, do not represent the people, | but the apecial interests with which they are | connected, and they are an obstacle in the way | of legislation which is of great moment to the | country. Eveninthe largest states the ques- | tion of representation in the Senate does not eem to turn on the consideration of fitness for | the office. It ts too frequentiy assumed that the honor will go to the highest bidder. There is an old-fashioned doctrine that the office should seek the man. If there is one whose character and experience eminently fit him for @ place that fs to be filled he should be selected for that reason, not thathe may be honored, but that he’ may creditably and hon- orably represent the state. Any man who acts | upon that theory is regarded by the small poll- ticians with scorn. He is not only expected to seek the honor, but to outbid other competitors either by his past contributions to party success or by his promises of future aid to the schemes of those who concern themselves with party | manazement. The rich man who has been lavish | of his means in political campaigns and who | may be expected to be so again has an advantage | over rivals. however worthy, who are dependent | on their merits The inevitable product of this | method of disposing of public honors in a Senate of mediocrities in mental and moral endowments, who have large interests often in conflict with taose of the public. The power of money in the attainment of political honors is not confined to state legisla- tures. More and more it has become necessary for aspirants to seats in the lower branch of Congress to be rich in order to be successful, It may not be the desire of the people who elect them, but they must get their nominations through the orzanized body of politicians who | control caucuses and conventions. In many | cases these men have a sharp eye for contribu- tions to election expenses. Many 4 man has disbursed more money to attain a seat in Con- | gress than the salary for his terms amounts to. | So it has long been in local elections. Candi- dates are souzht for who are abie and willing to nake liberal contributions and the claims of those are treated with contempt who are unable or unwilling to pay for public honors. How demoralizing all this is it Is unnecessary to say. It lowers the standard of public service and It degrades politics. There is no remedy except In the hands of the people and in a pub- lic sentiment which politicians will feel bound | to respect. The political service and experience which should be rewarded with public honor is | that which has been gained by devotion tosound principles and by action from which the public has derived benefit. Those who take part in | the bestowal of public offices should regard their power as in the highest degree one of trust and responsibility, to be used forthe bene- fit of the people and of the state, which it Is dis- | gracetul to muke a matter of barter and sale for | any consideration weatever. ‘Twenty-Five Dollars for a Widow. The case of Marian E. Thorp, a stylish widow, living in Philadelphia, against Evan M. Adams, a well-known resident of Atlantic City, N. J., which had occupied the attention of the Atlantic county court fortwo days, was concluded Sat- urday. The plaintiff, who has had three hus- bands already, sued Mr. Adams for breach of Promise to become her fourth husband, claim- ing damages in the sum of $10,000. The testi- mony was of such a character that the court- Toom was literally packed during the entire two days of the trial. It attracted more attention than any trial in South Jersey for a long time. Numerous letters which passed between the watiom lovers were produced in court, all of which went to show how devotedly fond of each other the parties were.
