S., Montreaux, Switzerland: A most unhappy misconception of the true charaeter of the young emperor of Germany, and his relations to his father, has found exvression in some American papers, and, as some recitals come to me from some who are cortainly cognizant of the veal facts, it secms a duty to sot them forth. Begin- ning with the religious side of his char- acter, it is stated that he came under the sweet influences of his Aunt Alice while he was at college at Bonn, and this brought him into conflict with the unorthodox views of his mother. This lady has expressed herself as being ur interested in any of the *“myths of Chris- tianity.,” It was the unskillfulness of the En- glish accoucher, which resulted in the infant prince being. brought into the world with one helpless arm; but in other respects than this he is a man of the finest physique, able to fire his gun with one arm. When, then, his mother sought to surround his wife with En- glish attendants at the time of her con- finement he made a clean sweep of the whole. Duving the illness of his father at San Remo he was torn by the con- flict ot his duty to stay by his grandfather and learn the = fun tions of practical government, and his affection, which led him to the side of his father. Hardly anyone couid have gone through a greater strain than he did during these painful circumstances. Late last fall the order was passed in the Imperial Council which would make him regent in case of the disability or absence of his father or grandfather; and this order, pmmulgnmed two days before the death of the Kmperor William, was one of the first orders reafirmed by his father. Tied to the urgent duty of his official position at Berlin and the proper atten- dance on his grandfather, he was the first to receive his father on his arrival from Itely, and entering the car, the tearful interview between the two was affectionate in the extreme. Nor could there be a more cruel and unfounded slander than that he stayed at Berlin to look out for his own interests; for while sacrificing personal feeling l?his ab- sence from his parent, he could not ad- vance his own in any way by being in Berlin, except only if it can be said that one advances their interests by a con- sclentious discharge of duty. Thougha young man: of solid mental qualities and of most excellent acquirements, these last months have given him a characteristic of solemnity and serious- ness which eminently befit a man soon to be called to exercise 8o awful a func- tion as that of emperor of Germany. The antagonisms he has are towards the headstrong, unwise and wilful be- havior of his mother, who, though of the house of Hanover and daughter of a German presumed to give forth the 1dea that she hzd demeaned herself by ng into the family of the Hohen ns. With the instincts of her mother, she has heid back from spend- ing or investing in Germany a penny of the money she receives as her pension. When in 1870 there was a reaction against French ideas and a strong, dis- position to take up with English oues, instead of taking pleasure in becoming one with her husband’s family and his nation, she violently set hersell against them, and has succeeded in alienating the national feeling from herself and from persons and things English. In undertaking to thwart the wishes of her father-in-law she brought her- self into open conflict with him, and by antagonizing her mother-in-law she lost all sympathy with her. By persisting in keeping Mackenzie in attendance upon her husband and having his diag- nosis of the disense acted upon, she has lost a husband and the good feeling of a nation. Last May Dr. Bergmann pronounced the _ disease can- cer, and staked his professional standing on being able to excise the erowth without Frederick losing the ability of spcech., Thus the Germans feel that their beloved Fritz has been ced to the willfulness of this un- wise woman. The attempt of oue per- son to appose a whole nation, especially when this antagonism is wrong ‘IOIIIJL‘\], has ended in miserable and mortifying defeat. Even the fish women of Berlin are said to save their stale fish as they say, for the new empress. On the con- trary, the young Emperor William and his attractive wife are entirely en rapport with the nation, and as crown rrmce was the especial favorite of the ate emperor, and isso now of all the Germans, The young man is most successful in the fulfillment of his arduous duties, while his wifc is held in affectionate admiration by the people for her sweetness of manner and her devotion to beneticent work for the poor. of & Peterson, Afrald She Might Be Kissed. Notes and Queries: A man was once walking along one road and a woman along another. The roads finatly unit- ed, and man and woman, reaching the junction at| the same time, walked on from there, together. The man was carrying a lurge iron kettle on his back, in one hand he beld by the legs a live chicken, in thé other a cane, and he was leading a goat. Just as they were coming to & deep, dark ravine the wom- an said to the man: “m afraid to go through that ravine with you; itisa lonely place, and you might over- power me and kiss me by force.” "If you weve afraid of that,” eaid ~ the = man. “you should have walked with me at all. How ¢ I possibly overpower you and kiss by force when T have this great iron kettle on my back, a cane in one hand, a live chicken in the other and am leading this goat? I might aswell be tied hand and foot.” “Yes,” replied the woman, “hut if you should stick your cane in the ground and tie the goat to it, and turn the Kkettle bottom side upand put the chicken into it, then you might wickedly me in spite of my resistance. uccess to ingenuity, oh woman!” said the re- joicing man to himself, 1 should vever have thought of such expedients.” And when they came to the ravine he stuck his cane in the ground and tied the ve the chicken to the wom- ying, “Hold it while I cut some s for the goat,” and then, lowering the kettle from his shoulders, impris- oned the chicken under it, and wicked!ly Jissod the woman, as she was afraid he would OMAHA BUSINESS COLLEGE.

The young lady will take her seat at the piano, and after a few nervous movements, pagses into a trance state, during which she sings the most beau- tiful and difficult song: The wonder- ful and astonishing feature of all is that she sings in five different lan- guages, and has never, while in a trance, been known to sing in English, the only languuge she speaks. Hor knowledge of music is rudimentary, her mother being her only tutor, and her skill as an instrumentalist is by no meuns above the average of many girls of eighteen years of age, yet her ac companiments while in the trance state are beautiful in the extreme. A Phantom Burial A writer in the Macon (G graph say Some ye ago, wis a hoolboy, attending school at Calvary, Ga., I, in company with one of my cousins, witnessed one’ of the most wonderful of spirit processions. "Twas on Friday afternoon, in the spring of the yeur, and we were on our way from school, We came down the voad, laughing and talking together. We were just_opposite the graveyard, at the Primitive Baptist church, (Pied- mont), where we witnessed one of the grandest burials imaginable. Justin front of us,as silent as moonlight, came the burial procession. On, on, it came. First the corpse in a blue wagon drawn by two white mules. Then the mourn- ers in black, Then the rest of the pro- cession in all the colors of tho rainbow, moving with silent tread to the grove which surrounds the yard. oming to the grove they halted, liftod the coffin from the wagon, lowered it into the grave and filled it. Then, re-entering their wagons and buggies, all of them moved off, passing over graves, und everything eise in the way. whole procession then disappeared like amist. We knew all the people, and knew whom they buried. When it dis- appeared we went home in a hurey and to!d my mother aboutit. She would not let us tell Uncle J. and his wife, be- cause itwas their hittle girl that we saw buris She was at the time, to my ri: knowledge, well and hearty Before Saturday night she was a corpse, and she arried to the grave in exact accordance with the seene we had witnessed, Wis ¢ Ghostly Phantoms. A Pomeroy (0.) Special to Cineinnati Enquir ys: Yourcorrespondent haus been furnished the following particu- lars of one of the strangest affairs that pver occurred in this section The neighborhood of Irwin Creek, Meigs county, hus been greatly excite in consequence of the discovery ef start- hostly phantoms and strange 1 iifestations. The family of William Marshall, shortly after moving to that locality. began to notice unusual freaks in th y of mysterious volce and singular cries of distress. But lit- tle attention, however, was paid to any of these strange phenomena, until one eveuing Mrs. Mavshall an elderly lady, went to the front part of the house, and, as she stood gazing through the window to the public highway there appeared a figure Imloru the glass. At the sight of the objeet Mrs. Marshall screamed and fell back in terror, shouting that a man on the outuide had made metions to strike her. Several of the fumil¥ in- stantly rushed out of the door,but faile to discover anything, thought it was impossible for an individual to have se- creted himself or got out of sight. The window being approached a second time by another member of the family the same occurrence was repeated and one of the sons instantly recognized the countenance of an enemy with whom he- had a quarrel a few days previous and who had threatened his life. The fea- tures and expressions were plainly vis ble and remained so for a long time and the picture gave the imp: ion that the owner’s temper was in o tercible state of rage. The family beeame intensoly frightened. The next night the samo likeness reappearcd on the glass, and the attention of friends was dirceted to it until the whole neighborhood wit- nessed the spectacles with great curios- ity. But the most singular part of the affair came to light a short time after- ward, when it wis revealed that the in- dividual whose face was shown in the window had devised a plot by which to kill the eldest son of the Marshall fam- ily, but the discovery of the face at the window put the latter on his gusrd, and prevented the tragical occurrence. A few nights after the appearance of the face in the window strange noises were heard 1 different portions of the house, and the Marshalls became imoyed for theirsafety. These grew more demonstrative, and bricks fell from the ceiling, doors slammed, and fire brands were flung around in various dirccti A young lady member of the household was con- sidérably injwed by a flying prece of wood that ecame from some unknown source and struck her on the head, in- ficting quite a painful wound. The sccond son also had one of the most singulur adventures while return- ing from Athens, O., about 12 o’clock at night. When within one and a half miles of home, and while he was emerg- ing from the edge of a fovest, suddenly he heard the clatter of hoofs, and im- mediately there sprang across the road in front of him a huge white horse, bearing a rider whose color was fiery red, and making frightful bounds over the earth, they disappered in a twink- ing. Tho sight of this phantom horse and rider almost drove young Marshall wiid with fright, and on reaching his relatives he was ns pale as death, trem- bling and speeehless, The next morning, in company with some friends, young Marshall returned to the spot anidl measured the distance between the horse’s footprints, showing the jump across the roadway to be fifty feet clear, wsionally the family would be dis- Dy the most uuearthly yells of dogs coming from underncath the house, although thérve was evidently not a canine about the building..

Late one dark night an unusually bright light shoeue into the front part of the Marshall dwelling and a stran sound startled the sleepors, Bpringing from tueir couches th saw @ huge white bi with wonstrons outstretched win ing to and fro in front of the building, and at intervals sereaming hideousi This huge-winged monster cont its movements for the s of hall an hour, and the members of the family, appailed with terror, hied themse to the darkest nooks and cerners, some of them refusing to come out until long after brond daylight, N hbors aver that they heard the bird scream also, but supposed it to be some large wild aniy :l, The next y the Marshall family hastit athe up all their goods and u:u'lhl)y possessions and disappeared from the neighnorhood, and not a sin- gle individual in that vicinity has yet been acquainted with their wherea- bouts. The house they occupied is deserted and lonely, and 'no one can bhe found who will venture to take possession of it. The people of that vicinity who have occasion to pass the bullding after night do so in haste and in great fear, some of them declaring that even yet the same noisy demons and frightful apparitions can still be scen there, 5pook Shadows.
