The prince was evidently delighted with nis good fortune. Almost as soon as the carliest of the guests made their appear- ance he came outand berar making himself agreeable to them with that charm of manner which even his bitterest enewies will not deny that hg has, ‘The princess and her two uumarried daughters accompanied him and ina very few minutes they were talking and iaughinz with little groups in which no ac- quaintance swas overlooked. The gardens of Marlborough of very fair dimensions, conside they stana in Pall Mall in St. Trees minglo together and gi rural aspect to the enclosure. In theso gar- dens a couple of tents had been erected and ug alternately. Every moment the guests increased in numbers. All the best known people in society and literature, in politics or in art, all of the most fumous ladies of the day, dared the weather by turning out in their most be- witching apparel. Listen! There are strains of “God Save the Queen.” No, iUs a German national anthem which does not vary by a single noto, and now coming up the walk with the princess of Wales on his arm is a_ gontle- man {n plain morning dress with a white hat aud wearing lavendur gloves, His loft hand is slipped partially within his vest. Iis the kais- er,the ruler of many legations whom all took to be the greatest win of the age. He s a de termined but pleasant lookiug man, observ- ing everything arouud him, with quick eyes recogniziug friends among both ludies and gentlemen. Standing by 1 particularly noticea him step out of his way to shake hands cordially with Lady Dudley, oue of the handsomest and one of tho purest women of the age. On ber fair fame, foul breath scandal has never left even a passing cloud, all honor to her. So the emperor pussed on with that young looking royal ludy who is the mothel of a large fawily.” Tmivediately behind them the prince of Wales with the German ' taller apparently than her nd, a stately and regal woman. Thus the throng passed by; the duchess of Fife looking quite well and happy, duke of Edinburgh, Prince Aibert of Victor, duke of Connsught and others. They ail had friends in the throng and shake hands with them as they pass, ladies responding with low bows and gentlemen standing with un- covered heads, Presently the royal party returned to the house and one can seo the prince of Wale: within standing bare headed at the door. He is waiting for the queen, his mother. A few moments after a checr is faintly heard from Pall Mull. The sovereign drives up, with her two Scotch grooms at the back of ' the carriage, and tne prince of Wales lelps ber to uhight, then, his face beaming with smiles, he leads her into the garden. Her majesty, as alert as ever, bestowing smiles or pleasant words upon her old fricnds and beams on each side pleasantly as she passes. She leans on a short stick,” the prince giving her his avm on the other side. Botn Mok supremely happy. No cloud is on the queon’s. faco and. the princo is as do: lighted as a boy at having his royal mother thus amoug his guests, All rumors set afioat by lying tongues appear before such a picture “as this. The German emperor walks behind with the nrincess of Wales, continually removing his hat aud howing. ~The empress is now on the arm of Prince Albert Victor, who looks rather smail and slight by her side. They go onward to the larger of the two tents where the queen and somo of the ladies take airs, The prince of Wales and the kaiser stroll avound talking to friends. Lord Salisbury has a few moments’ conversation with the queen. Not far off are most of the other cabinet ministers, but none of them approach the aueen again. She walks nearly outside the circuit of gardeus, the crowd openiug up to let her pass but rot crowding around her. Still they do undoubtedly press to got near the tent where she is sitting within and she submits to their prolonged gazos with the utmost good humor. artist in the background is undoubte ing sketches. The queen remains nearly hour and a half, the garden being crowded all the time with celebrities of all kinds and all countrios. The prince of Wales invites his friends, and they extend to every class representing the social and public”lifo of England, Under yonder tree the archbishop of Can- terbury is talking with the bishop of London.

In u few moments aftorwards the mun emperor and empress take their de- parturealso. They received a very hearty greeting from the people outside.

The committeo is still busily engaged in accumulating data and congulting the various iuterests likely to bo effected by what promises to be the most im- portant commercial negotiations of modern times. The supreme indifference of the l"lllll'\‘ States to the prog 55 of the negotia- tions can only be acconnted for by the hope that the embargo on American pork will bo removed by the naudus forming alliance. ~ Well informed 0bs however are convineed that the embargo, as_raised, will be simply replaced by a tariff that will be in effvct pro- hibitory us against all nations not 1 the al- liance.” The Uuited States would thus see itself not only completely but permanently shut ont from KEurope usa market for its pork products.

In asking Dr. Shrady to be presont Warden Durston not only aciknowladged the ability of the ominent physician who pro- longed the life of General but he thereby acknowledged the right of the medi- cal profession everywhere to know what transpired. Dr. Shrady was presens not only in a personai capacity, but he represented his profession, being the editor of tho Medi- cal Record. When Dr. Joukins began the sutopsy ou Kemlers' body Dr. Shrady, who is a shorthand writer, made tho runuing notes of the progress of that inquest. The same night Dr. Shrady, having been left aloue in tho work, reduced his notes to writing and thus the Associated press was enabled to lay the description of the autopsy beforo the public with the sta of Kemmler's execution. Dr. Shrady was Dot preseut at the Sing Sing exccutions, Mr. Warden Brown is reported as having said ho did not think to ask him. In this week's issuc of the Record, however, Dr. Shrady has editoriul veference to the Sing Sing exe cutions, and tho following extracts are most pertinent: “It is with a feeling of general relief that one hears that suceess has this time offset the horrors enacted last year at Auburn and that science, which heretofore has so nobly lent its best'efforts to saying and prolonging life, has at last succeeded in showing its power to kil effectively, quickly and aluost pleasantly. Thers was a grim humanity proceedings of repeating the shocks in quick succession which relieved the minds and conscience of those who cuaranteed the criminals against unnecessary suffering. It is asserted that no burat sacrifices resuited. “No ofticial report has yet been recetved regarding the details of the killing and thes is nothing boyond the mere results in death which have at presant any scientific inter- est. The extra precautions taken to prevent the expression of independent personal vie &5 will necessarily detract from the value of the verdict when finally vendcred.
