London National Review: Since the year 1870 the population of the United States has increased by 20,000,000, The miles of railw: have grown from 50,000 to more than 130,000 Tho production of hay and grain has beeen nearly doubled; the production of iron has been trebled. The property insured from fire has become two and a half times as great. The cost of growing grain in the western states, small as it always was, has been greatly lessened by improved agriculture and by reduction of nearly one-half in the current rate of interest on borrowed money; and the ¢ost of moving grain from Chicago to Liver- pool has been reduced no less than 13s a quarter. These are very brief statements, but only think what they disclose. Here is a vast continent of virgin soil adding twenty mitlions to its inhabitants in fif- teen years. These people are all work- ers, and every one is assisted by the state. Ther¢ gre fresh grants of land to those who will cultivate it; protection from foreign competition for those who will manufacture anything. The in- crease in wealth and in production is far apid than the increase in num- great as that has been, and the cost of producing and of moving contin- i grows le or are these by any means the only thingsof vital interest to ourselves. The 20,000 miles of British railways have cost £40,000 a mile. The 130,000 miles ilway in the United States have cost £11,000 a mile, and their ac construction at this moment in the amile. Half the capital of Amer railways is borrowed money, the aver- n, st being 4% per cent; the other half is share capital, on which the average dividend is only 2 per cent. But these low terms are suflicient to at- tract unlimited investments, very largely of English capital. The inter- est on'the borrowed money is generally safe, and the share capital would be found even if there were no dividends; for every mile of new railway in_ the west gives immediate value to at least 5,000 acres of new land. State aid also is ne nting where it is ne A The railways west of the Miss have received grants of less than 200,000,000 acr land,or as much as England and Fr together, The ge e at which goods ave carried is one halfpenny per tou per mile, the rate for gr 9 distances is less than @ corn is brought from Ch pool for something like At these rates the profit over the wg ing expenses of the railw me-third of the gross earnings. In il the profit is one-half, and the capital per mile on which interest has to be paid nearly four times as great as in Ame. i I'he absolute confidence with which the Americans themselves look forward to the future is shown in the most emph . With full knowl- edge of the rates, the traffic and the dividends, before them, 11,000 miles of new railw will have bhecn col strueted this y and they will make more than 50,000,000 acres of fresh land available for use. The land is valueless without the railways. The railways get their traftic from the cultivation of the land. The capital invested this year will probably be sixty millions sterlin much of it will come from Englishn and neither the constructor: vestors have any fear as to the resuit. Putting all these things together, what have we here but the most formid- able engine of eonimercial competition that has ever been known; and what chance is there that the methods by which we earned our living before this competitor was born will answer now that he is at owr door. rbeis Tt A COURT OF FAIR WOMEN. The Empress of Austria—Her Curious Marriage and Career. Philadelphia Times: rope has no court where the women are 8o fair as at the Austrian. The em herself, though no ]nnfrr young, is still counted among beautiful women. She was once ravishingly fair, and the traces of the beauty that captured an emperor can still be discerned. Hers was a roman- tic wooing. Fraij vi‘g Josef aggended the Austrian throne in 1848, In 1853 a mar- riage had been negotiated for him with the lady who is now the widow of Prince Taxis. He went to the castle of his future father-in-law, Duke Max of Ba- varia, in order to be officially betrothed. But the imperial match-makers had been making wedding arrangements without having taken tfic little god that rules ko despotically in our lives into their confidence. For as soon as the young monarch caught sight of his i nded bride's younger sister, then a girl in short dresses, he fell madly in love with her, and so Princess F beth was chosen instead of Princess Helene. The marriage, which took place A\k\/ 1, 1854, was a ver, ar one in The empe tives had intended a bigger mateh for him than with the impoverished Bava- rian ducal family. But the Hapsburgs were accustomed to falling in love lik ordinary mortals, Francis Josef's selection brought his beautiful bride much annoyance and for ten or twelve years after marriage the empress was simply boycotted by the Vienese aristocracy and by the members of the imperial f"xllnil.\'. Archduchess Sophia (who died in 1872), her mother- in-law, headed the cacal against the young’ Kaiserin, One day, whein the empress was coming down the grand staircase of the palace at Shoenbrunn, her long, sweeping train became ¢ tangled around the feet of the cardinal archbishop of Vi who had drawn to one side to make room for his sover- eign. A few embarrassing minutes under the sheering eyes of the Au trians present clapsed before a s tion of chureh and state could be ef- fected, and twenty-four hours had not elapsed before the great distortions of the story had been circulated through- out scandal-loving Vienna. The empress had her revenge, how- ever, and for the last twenty years she has left no chance unimproved of show- ing her regard for the gallant Hungar- ians, prefering to live among them at Buda-Pesth and at Godollo as queen of the Magyars rather than as empress of Aust e did much to win_ Hun- gar loyalty to her husband’s throne. She was crowned with him queen of Hungary, and showed her devotion to her subjects by allowing her delinquent hush:nu{ to sue for grace with her in his new kingly eapacity, after years of separation from the mostchivalrous sov- ereigns in Christendom, who had not al- onducted himself as a model hus- band should have done and had in fact at one time seriously endangered both health and happiness, A queen has much to forget and for- , just as the Austrian crown prin- s has to-day. **Nobody knows the hidden sorrows of a queen,” says that harming royal authoress, Queen wbeth, of Roumania, “excopt those :s who, for reasons of state have to permit themselves to be vie- tims, keeping a smile on their face the while.” The emperor had in 1867 to accept the inevitable in Hungary that had been brought about by Franz Deak, the great magyer, and Andrassy became the pre- mier for the Transleithan state. For her faithful Hungarians the empress gave a part of lite, and Archduchess Valerie, the beautiful princess whose picture Mr. de Grimm has drawn as she appeared recently at court festivities as Edelweiss, was her present as queen to her uubit-cln on the 22d of April, 1868. ‘When Deak died one beautiful wreath was placed upon his coffin. It was from the empress-queen. The empress is an excellent Hunga- rian scholar. She selected as her teacher the editorof the Pesther-Lloyd, Falk, also a deputy in the Hunga ian lower house. A more diligent pupil cannot be im- agined,” he says, ‘translations were written out for me on blue ruled paper so correctly and in such a neat hand my pupil would have won the first prize at any public school. Only qnce did I catch” her trpping. One day at the commencement of her lcsso?, when she was in the habit of laying her ex- ercises before me, she handed me a sheet of a kind of blotting paper,which ?w ngither very clepn nor vey atee to 0ok at, both sides being written upon in pencil. Naturally Iwas greatly as- tonished, but her majesty was not with- out an excuse. “Yesterday,” said she, “I was en- gaged the whole day long with all sorts of-receptions at court, and in the even- g there was a state concert which fatigued me so much that I had to go to bed. But remembering that I had not done my lesson I tore this sheet of puper from an almanac which was at my bedside table and wrote out the translation of one of the stories in the So, you see, if I did not do duty I had at least good inten- tions.” The Empress Elizabeth is now seldom seen in public. Her withdrawal from lic has its good reason, as she is ed with a rash on her face, which her shun society. In Ischl, one avorite summering places,when- ever sheappears on horseback her face is conceiled by a heavy veil, and when she is driven out she has the habit of always holding a fan upto her face, when returning the greetings of her admirers. The wicked people of say she does this because of her tion. However, it must be said that when the imperial lad back she has a very and that she rides in a wonder- fully graceful manner. Slavery in Brazil., 'w York Mail and Express: Slavery Brazil. A curious event ion was brought about t the recent visit of two New York F asons to Pernambuco, a maritime srovidence of Brazil, containg 900,000 inhabitants, 'l Masons in guestion were offices of the United States steamer Alliance, which vessel,after an African eruise, put into Parnambuco. Y officers were possessed of the 1 degree., and assuch signi- nified their intention of visiting Caval- hierros de Cruz lodge and chapter at that place. After being duly examined as to their Masonic qualifications, the Free Masons of thut extended them a frat brethers of the met in their g business he vansucted in the first or lowest de . But before admitting i brethren the Brazilians d sonic te sand the practice of holding slaves or traficing in bonded hu nily, showing that they were inconsistent with each other. It was argued that they could havdly re- aeive and entertain Masons who were cbsolutely free in thought and posses- sions, while they themselves were hold~ ers of slaves, and evidently violating the law of universal human freedom. In honor of the Americans thirty-two members at once signed an edict that after November 7.1887, no brother of that order should] purchase any slaves, but should liberate those he might pos- sess on that day: that before any new member could be admitted he must lib- erate every slave he might possess; that no membér, under pain of expulsion, ould éxpose the place of refuge of a slave, do anvthing to punish a slave or allow any one under his orders to do so, and, lastly, he was forbidden to practice any act which should give authority or right to any man over the body of an- other. The American brethren were then admitted and told of the action of the assemblage. ———— In a Virginia newspaper of thirty years ago is a long account of the sen- tence of & woman to three years’ im- prisonment for teaching slaves to read.
