The selection of Robert Lincoln to represent the American government at the first court on the diplomatic list is a tribute to the memory of the President who controlled public affairs ata time when the relations between the inde- pendent republic and the mother country were more sensitive than at any other period in the history of their international relations. The duties of the legation will be largely social. The training of Mrs. Lincoln in the conrt life of the republic will, therefore. make her a repre- sentative type of the refined manners of the daughters of America. ‘MRS. LINCOLN was born at Iowa City, but on account of her father's long service in public life nearly all of her youth, up to the time of her marriage, was passed in Washington, She received her finishing education at one of the fashionable schools in New York. She is the daughter of James Harlan, nator of the United States from 1855 to 1865. He then resigned in order to accept the appintment of Secretary of the Interior.

THE FAMILY of the new minister to England consists of a grown daughter (Mary) and a son aged fifteen and daughter thirteen, who will accompany ir parents. This will not be Mrs, Lincoln's t visit to Europe, as she spent six months there in 1872. Mrs. Lincoln is a lady of pleasing presence and of quict manners. “She will soon win her way to the kind attentions of Queen Victoria, and that will insure the rest.

MINISTER TO ENGLAND, It took George Li, his isters and court a Jong time to recover from the chagrin and ational loss incident to the independence of the thirteen colonies of North America.

The person to whom the President largely owes his nomination is John C. New. One of the Presidents’ first acts was the consideration of his name for a cabinetor a prominent mis- sion, Circumstances prevented the accom- plishment of the former and Mr. New’s decli- nation negatived the latter. Having his choice, he preferred the consul-generalship at London, a post of libéral returns in salary and perqui sites and less exacting in its social requirement=> It is regarded in all respects, except in social and official rank, equal to a mission. The long editorial and public experience of Gen. New will make his residence at the metropolis and capital of the greatest commercial nation on the globe particularly valuable to his govern- ment. = He will also have the advantage of the presence of his wife and daughter,whose social attractions will make the consulate-general very popular in the high life of London. uns, NEW is favorably remembered in Washington during the term of her husband's official career as as- stant secretary of the Treasury. She was Miss Elizabeth McRae, a daughter of John H. Me- Rae, of Cumberland county, Va, Her father, a native of that state, belonged to one of the oldest families. He isa planter and owner of a large estate and one of the finest tobacco plan- tations in Virginia. He has never taken an ac- tive part in politics himself, although his father for many years served in the Virginia legisla- ture asa whig. Several of his ancestors were also distinguished in national, revolutionary, and colonial affars. General New met the beautiful young lady who was to become his wife in the spring of 1868. The marriage took place in the autumn of the same year. Mrs, New is an accompiished vocalist. During her school years she gave much time and attention to the cultivation of this gift, which adds greatly to her charms in the social world. General and Mrs, New have two daughters, Miss Elizabeth and Miss Rowena, both well advanced in their teens and both in school. They will accompany their parents to London and will finish their educa- tion, The eldest in another year will doubtless make her entrée into society at the English capital. The younger daughier will not make her debut for three or four years. DeB. R. K. eles ieee BOOKS OF THE WEEK. HEAVEN AND EARTH: An Antiphon. By pITH M. THOMAS.

Because the trouble with you is external, caused from wind and sun. If youcut your finger you do pot take a dose of internal medi- cine; you apply something externally, The same rule should be observed here. Use Recamier Cream and Lotion for your complexion, to cure sunburn, freckles and pimples. Use Recamier Balu as a beautifier, It is imperceptible, and will bring the roses back to your cheeks, Use Recamier Powder in place of any other. It is the finest and the purest ever put on the market; thot make the face shine and will not rub off. Do let your dealer prejudice you against the Recamier rations in favor of any other.
