THE JUBILEE OF GEORGE THE THIRD.

How it Was Celetorated.

It may inberesb our readers ab bhe presenb time bo have placed before bhem a brief de scription of how bhe Jubilee of King George the Third was celebrated in the year 1809, so thab bhe rejoicings indulged in by bhe public fifty years ago may be compared wibh bhose of bhe Vicborian celebration.

In 1809, when, in honour of bhe King having reigned for a period of 50 years, an ox was roasted in its entirety for distribu tion among the people of Windsor, in Bachelor's Acre, the flesh was distributed in a scene of tumultuous strife and confu sion. Copious debails of bhis feabure of bhe Jubilee entertainments of 1809 have been preserved. The necessary machinery having been devised for tho cooking .if the ox, the business of roasting it began ab bwo o'clock in the morning, at which time, early as was the hour, many persons had assembled to witness bhe preparations making for bhe greab gastronomic feat. An immense plum pudding was also provided, and on the same spit which impaled the ox, one ab each side, were placed two sheep, in order to give variety to the bill of fare ; and to add to the savouriness of the day's treab, a bushel and a half of pobaboes was placed in bhe belly of bhe animal bo be cooked, so that they might be served with the beef. The Royal family came forth to view the scene and to taste the beef, but the distribution of the viands among bhose who were hungrily waiting for them gave riso bo a scene of; " unmabehed confusion," which ended by bhe potatoes being thrown over the struggling mass of claimants for bhe beef or mubbon. Another plan which had been devised of honouring the occasion proved much more successful, ■ and that was the liberation of persons confined for debt—especially small debtors. Large sums of money were sub scribed in aid of that benevolent work, the King himself giving as much as £2,000 from his privy purse. Many of those liberated on the occasion had been de tained in prison for lengthened periods, and were glad to obtain thoir release. As indicative of the feeling which prevailed as to the liberation of persons confined in prisons for debt, bhe resolution arrived ab by bhe London Court of Common Council may be quobed. Ib ran as follows : —" Thab ib will be more accepbable bo Almighby God, and more congenial to the parental feelings of our beloved monarch, if bhe Court would proceed bo bhe liberation of bhe prisoners and captives on bhe joyful jubilee aboub bo be celebrated, than in spending sums of money in feasting and illuminations." A great feature of bhe Georgian Jubilee was bhe striking of a medal by which to commemorate bhe evenb; some of those struck in gold being presented bo various persons of distinction by order of His Majesty. The Jubilee medal was bho work of Bissct of Birmingham, and had engraved upon ib the following legend:-" King George the Third ascended the bhrone of bhe Imperial realms of Greab Bribain and Ireland, Ocbober 25bh, a.t>. 1760. Grand National Jubilee celebrabed October 25bh, 1809." In addition bo bhis medal comme morative of bhe occasion obher insbances > of the strong craze to honour the King which prevailed, was the wearing of costumes designed for the celebration ; in the case of the ladies' dresses of garter blue velvet or satin were worn, wibhhead-gear containing devices emblematic of bhe Jubilee; bhe genblemen wore whab is called bhe Wind sor uniform, a suib of clobhing still in use; whilst'fireworks were everywhere let off in bhe evening. Bub in London there was no general illumination, exeepb by His Majesby's tradespeople—in numerous instances the money saved in consequence of this arrangement was given to the sub scription in course of being raised for bhe relief of persons confined for small debbs. Another mode of aiding in this benevolent project was found in _the publication of an account of the Jubilee as it was celebrated B_ffS^_rc-f-*^^^o__. 'the'profits of'the book being devoted to the Überation of im prisoned debtors. As at the present time, Jubilee odes were wribben in honour of bhe bhird George. A new edition of " God Save bhe King" was issued on bhe occasion, bhe firsb verse of which was as follows :—

" Britons ! your voices raise, . Join cheerful songs of praiso _ --■ - With grateful lay; ! May all our islands ring. Her sons orisons sing,- For their beloved Kin?:, ■ ','■,"./, On this bright day." There * "were, of course, more ambitious efforts in the way of poetry than the special edition of " God Save bhe King," of which the above is a specimen verse, and which concluded in these words: —

" Thus may our children find Cause which will o'er remind Them to agree That we with justice sing, God bless our good old King This Jubilee."

Thab readers may compare whab was ■wribben in honour of George bhe Third wibh the poems of Lords Rosslyn and Tennyson, arid other less distinguished bards, we pre sent the following lines of 50 years since, an extract from one of the odes :— __il_ is the Prince, and glorious were tho arts That gave him sov'reign empire o'er our hearts. Our love for him is such as ever flows Spontaneous, warm, and Btrength'ning as it Un'ike the' smiles and flattery of Courts, Which int'rest prompts and tyranny extorts. A monarch so beloved has nought to fear From mad Ambition's turbulent career, For subjects ne'er from their allegiance swerve, Who love his person they are bound to serve.

Then oh! Thou King of Kings, extend thy arm To shield thine own anointed George from harm; Grant, if it so comport with thy behest— For t_y decrees must ever be the best- Grant that he long may live and long may I stand .•■'.-.•_ A tower of strength to guard our native land."

i A very rude way of rejoicing consisted in the baitipg.of a bull, and some other rough and ready sports were also indulged in of a kind not seen in any part of the Kingdom this year. It is interesting to know that one of the great pastimes of the present period was .then coming into vogue: we allude to billiards. One of the classic horse races—bhe " Two Thousand Guineas " — was run for bhe firsb time in bhe year of George bhe Third's jubilee. Foxhunting and obher oub-of-door sports were carried on wibh vigour, bub in a more homely way bhan is ab presenb the fashion. J It is not necessary to refer to the numerous loyal addresses which bhe occasion of the King's. jubilee called forth. Nor heed reference be made of bhe diebs of Divine service which marked the occasion both in London and the country ; all these, things at such a time are a matter of course. In Scotland the amounb of royal feeling dis played was prodigious ; in. Edinburgh in particular bhe rejoicings began early and continued bill a late hour—there were public breakfasts and banquets, arid,as usual on all such occasions, a large quanbiby of gun powder was expended in bhe firing of royal salutes; in the evening the public buildings were illuminated. Similar expressions of rejoicing took place in Glasgow and in the importanb provincial towns, whilsb "in Dublin the fesbivibies extended over bhroe days, and were kepb up wibh immense epirib.

The good King, in his generosity, did not forget the poor debtors of Scotland and Iceland, as he gave a sum of £1,000 to each country to aid in their liberation. We con clude these brief notes with the following extract from the "Edinburgh Annual Register" for the year 1809 :—" The King, profoundly penetrated by the public joy, and feeling himself more than ever the father of his.people, extended his paternal clemency and bounty, as far as the welfare 01 the fctate would permit, to the most un tortunate, and even to the most undeserv ing oi his children.'A volume could not con- SSrtf.■■*n_\Wu_riw_._ibn of the festivities a^fl^aariti^s of this joyful oc^fwym.

A MODERN SAMSON.

The Sensational Experiences of a Lion

Tamer.

Those who delight in sport of a dangerous yet exciting character have had bheir tastes gratified bo no libble exbenb of labe, since ab Olympia, bhe favouribe and fashionable re sort of bobh afbernoon and evening, races, gladiaborial babbles and risky chariot racing have been indulged in sufficiently ofben bo gratify the most exacting. Bub all bhese pastimes have been corcplebely pub in the shade by the advent of Mr Seebh, the celebrated lion tamer, with his uncanny pupils, whose en brance inbo bhe arena is the signal for the mosb inbense excibemenb and inberesb upon bhe parb of the audience. Then every eye is dilated and every neck sbrebched for ward to view the performance of the in trepid tamer, whoso every motion in the lion's cage is watched with the keenest at tention. After a performance the other night our representative had an interview with Mr Seebh, who, it may be mentioned, is quite a young man, and of decidedly pre possessing appearance, straight as a dart, as an ash, and evidently a perfect Hercules in strengbh. To this may be added a sturdy frame and a handsome face attri butes which at once claim for their happy possessor the favourable consideration of bhe audience, " Whab nabionaliby do you claim?" ."-asked. " I am Danish by birth. My fabhe. "fas American and my mobher Danish, I b.ing born in Denmark." "I suppose your age is " " I am only 24, but people take me to be considerably more. I know I look older." " Can you speak English ?" " No, not at all. I only speak German, and just a word or bwo of French, which I have picked up since I have been associated wibh M. Houcke's hippodrome." "Has your experience as a lion bamer been very large ?" " Well, I think I may say that it has. I have been an animal trainer for the last 17 years. During this time I havo trained lions, tigers, leopards, cheetahs and other fierce beasbs. I was only seven years old when I firsb commenced, my school being a largo menagerie kepb in Norway and Sweden by my uncle, who himself was a skilful trainer." "Is ib possible bhab you never feel bhe leasb fear when you enber bhe lion's cage?" "Nob the slightest, I do assure you. I may say bhab I have never known whab bhe word ' fear' means, and cannob even imagine ib." " When you jusb now sbepped inbo that cage the roars of the infuriated beasts made mosb of the audience shiver with ?.pprehension for your safeby. Ai_ you aware of thab?" "I believe it if you bell mo so, bub upon my life I cannob understand the feeling you describe. Ib is absolubely un known to me." " I suppose were you once bo lose your presence of mind all would soon be over wibh you?" "Oh, yes; bhere's no doubb aboub bhab. The lions are only kepb in subjugation by bheir inbense fear of mo; bub were I once to show myself afraid of them they would gain courage, and I should be helpless. But such a bhing is never likely to occur." "Whab do you use bo keep bhe brubes in order ?" " Only a sboub whip, which I use prebby freely. I used bo "have the head of ib loaded wibh lead, bub I find bhab now unnecessary." "Is this the only weapon of defence you havo ever used?" "Yes. Bub in bhe evenb of bhe lions becoming albogebher unruly I should use a red hob iron. Al bhough I have always kepb one handy, I have never had occasion bo use ib." "Have you ever been bibben ?" " Very many bimes, so many in facb bhab I do nob remember. Ab any rabe I have aboub 68 differenb wounds on various portions of my body. See here. My hands are freely marked wibh bhe scars, and a few monbhs ago bhe whole of my right arm was torn by the teeth of thab big lion you saw bo-nighb." " Whab do you use bo counberact bhe poison of bhese bites. ?" " My dresser always has on hand a preparabjon of carbolic acid,' aboub 10 per centr.l-.he mixture. This I use, and find thoroughly effective." " What_ is the worst attack you have ever sustained ?" " One by a big lioness in Paris. We foughb desperabely for aboub seven whole minubes, and I was berribly mauled. Bub I conquered in bhe end, bhoroughly thrashing her, and she died seven days after from bhe effects. During bhe encounter we rolled over and over, but I generally contrived to geb on bhe bop, and bhus gained tho mastery. Oh, thab was a fight, I can assnro you !" " So I should imagine. I suppose you never can tell the character of your lion until you have trained him for some time ?" " And not always then. They are thoroughly feline, being terribly fickle and uncertain in temperament. Some days they are quibe docile and bracbable, while on others just the reverse, wild and fierce in the extreme, rushing about thoir cage like so many devils. You saw that big lion, for in stance, jusb now how he refused to obey me, until I used the whip very freely ? Well, this is the first time for many a day thab he has behaved like bhab. Generally speaking he looks very treacherous, as I believe he is, bub he very seldom refuses to go through his performance as he did just now." "I notice that you do not stand any nonsense with them, and do not allow them to shirk a single feature of their enbertainmenb." " Certainly riot; for should I allow it one day I should have endless , difficulty in making them go through with it the next. I have bo observe bhe very sbricbesb disci pline on all occasions." "How'many pupils have you here?" "Eighb in all. Three are lions and five are riones.es. Three of bhem are aboub eighb years old, and were born in Paris. They are, of course, very sbrong, but I consider my. own personal strengbh equal to that of one of the young animals." '"How is it that when you are so much engaged with one or two of them bhe others ; do" not seize, the opportunity of springing upon you ?" "I suppose they are too > much afraid of me to do anything of the kind.,, Besides, I con tinually keep my "eye upon the whole lob of them, and should detect any mischief lurking in their eyes.ab once. I am, 1 need scarcely tell you, always on the gui vive. This afternoon Tmeb wibh quite an opposition on bhe parb of bhat old lion there, who would not let, me geb into the cage at first. He then refused to lie down and let mo lie across his body; but I soon broke him in. I hold open his jaws, aad place my head right in his mouth as far as I can.' " How horrible ! Suppose he were to snap those jaws together, where would your head be then ?" "I suppose very speedily inside the lion's stomach ; bub bhere is very libble fear of bhab, as I hold his jaws very firmly, and ab bhe slighbesb pressure I should immediately withdraw my head." "I see you'wear a claw as a scarf pin. Is there any history abbached to that?" "Yes. Thab is bhe claw of bhe lioness which abtacked me, as I have described to you. We were per forming in Vienna, and she had cubs, all of whom she had eaten up. This made her terribly savage, and directly I got into the cage she flew at me, and a battle royal ab once ensued. I was very much mauled, and in bhe encounber bhe brube broke off her claw in 'my arm, and this piece I wear is bhe same. A report gob aboub bhab I was dead, and it is, in deed, a wonder that I was not." "Upon what do you feed your pupils ?" " Raw meat. They each have about 801b once a day, at 11 a.m., as soon as our working re hearsals are over. They also receive about one litre-or two quarts-of milk'a day. They would nob touch any meat bhab was nob full of blood." "At what price do yon value the lions at presenb in your possession ?" " Well, bhe largesbl value, ab bhe leasb, ab 8,000. francs, or L 320. He is African by birth, and he is a splendid specimen of his breed. The others range about 5,000 to 6,000 francs each. I value the entire collection ab aboub 50,000 francs, or L 2.000, exclusive

of the cage, which cost 6,000 francs, or L 2-0." "Are the animals long-lived?" "They live in this climate aboub 25 years, bub in Africa ab leasb 10 years longer, if nob more." " Have you bravelled far with your show?" "Nearly all over the -European Continenb, and I have performed before many crowned heads. This is bhe firsb bime I have ever visited England, how ever." "And how do you like us?" "Very much indeed, and I hope to come back here to you some day—nob far hence. I leave on 21 sb March, and go bo Paris, where I open wibh bhe hippodrome in April, and thence I go to America, and Brazil, and possibly obher places. I have received many brilliant offers from all parts of the world, some of which ib is my in tention to accept." — "London Evening News."

THE POULTRY YARD.

SETTING A HEN.

The following is good practical informa tion :—" How to set a hen is a very simpie question, yet there are more blunders and mismanagements in it than many aro aware. Some claim the best success with a nest filled with a sod, as that is as near nature as possible. Each one claims his method as the best, and it is hard to get any to understand that there is something better. I have set hens in every way I have read of and seen recommended by others, and did everything a living man could do ; but I have learned by experience that if the eggs were good I always had a fair hatch, and if the eggs were bad, or the hen failed to do her parb, ib did not make a particle of difference whether the nest was sod or straw, or lined with silk or satin— the eggs wouldn't hatch. The principal thing neglected by many is to see that the hen is free from lice. If she is not, we can nob expecb a good hatch. There are many ways of killing vermin. I have found kerosene oil about the best thing to clean a hen-house of lice ; but it is too cheap, and is often passed for something more expen sive. I will give your readers my method of setting and taking care of hens during the time of incubation, and if anyone has a better way, let him come forward and give it for the benefit of the poultry-keeper. I have each hen inclosed in a separate place, about four feet long and eighteen inches wide. I think it is a bad plan to have all the hens together, as they will often go in different nests and leave thoir own exposed. Time is money ; and if I can take caro of 100 hens in tho earne time I did ten in the old way, I havo so much saved. Before I make a nest I wash the bottom of the box with kerosene oil, and then fill it with straw ; aud I assure you no lice will live in that nest. Take the hen and dust her with sulphur. Dust her so she looks as if she came out of a flour barrel, and she will nest three weeks in peace. After the hen has her eggs I leave her alone. She know 3 more about her businoss than anybody else, and I give her water and corn that will last for a week. Every few nights I put my hand under her and see if tho eggs are all right, and'this is all bhe care I give them during the three weeks. Lot the hen alone, and a little common sense on your part will insure suc cess."

CHEAP EGG-rRODtJC-NG FOOD,

Upon this subject a practical poultry keeper writes :—ln tho morning, just as tho hens come off, ie the time to give them the soft food, and it should be warm and stimula ting ; but do not give them all they can eat, nor feed them on the ground, but rather give only enough to afford them a partial breakfast, and then make thorn scratch, if necessary, compelling them to go hungry until night, rather than they should ' mope around and become lazy and idle. At night stuff them wibh all bhe mixed grain- bhey wanb. There are many ways of preparing cheap nourishing foods, which may contain all bhe elements of bhe eggs. One of bhe besb is as follows : Take a piece of liver, rough beef, or even blood (aboub a pound), and boil ib to pieces in half a gallon of water, adding more when too much has ovapora bed. While boiling add half a pinb of soaked beans, bhe same of rice, and the pame of linseed meal. When bhe whole is cooked add salb to taste and thicken with two parts ground oats, one part bran, one part middlings and one of corn meal. Add the mixed ground grain until the mess has thickened to. a stiff dough. If it burns a little no harm will bo done. Then stir in a half a pint of ground bone. If milk be convenient it may be also added, either as curds, buttermilk or in any other shape. When boiling add a tea spoonful of bread soda to the water. This food may be cooked in the shape of cakes and crumbled for the fowls or fed in the soft stabe. A teaspoonful is sufficient for each hen. Just before adding the ground grain chopped clover may be placed in the boiler also.

A Training School for Dogs.

An insbibubion of bhis kind is bo be found in Vienna, and a wriber in bhe " Queen " thusdescribes a visit:—" The establishment was complete in every particular, and con sisted of a large general school-room and class-rooms for separate lessons, bath rooms, gymnasium, airy dormitories, spacious recreation grounds, and a large and commodious dining-hall. After some preliminary explanation bhe proprietor led me through the differenb school rooms, where bhe pupils were ab work, and I heard wibh regreb bhab my favourite dogs, the mastiff and bhe greyhound, were on bhe lowesb form; ib seems they have neither emulation nor ambition. The schoolmaster in passing cast a severe look on a quarrel some group of pupils who were waiting bheir turn for rehearsal. We then passed on'to''the rboffi for. "beginners,' when he further explained his plan of education. The physical and moral faculties are cultivated .simultaneously, though in many cases the latter are necessarily much neglected. Each pupil spends a couple of months in the college, and after the term he passes an examination, at which he nearly always obtains his certificate of proficiency. The corporal exercises commence with bhe difficulb per formance of walking on a rolling cask, and exbend bo bhe high art of dancing. For menbal exercise, especial abbenbion is given bo aribhmetic as the basis of all real science. While I was there an assistant teacher was just explaining to an attentive class the first rules of addition ; and many a hound would be vainly grinding over a simple figure, whilst a shrewd little pug put togebher wibh asbonishing quickness differenb bibs of paper on which were wribben bhe numbers his professor asked for."

A Milliner at Court.

London society is supposed to be sh.ooked by the fact that a prominent milliner last week ran the gauntlet of the Lord Chamber lain aad was presented at the last levea. A writer in " Vanity Fair" says : " Tho liberal views entertained by Her Majesty as to who are the proper persons to be received at her drawing-rooms were . strongly illustrated the other day. In one issue of the ' Morninn- Post' the admiring public read that Mrs Isaacsons had been presented at the draw ing-room. A week later the same admiring public, on reading the account of an action at law, ascertained that the lady in question was no other than Madame Elize, the Regent-street milliner. I wonder if any of the ladies she rubbed shoulders with had ever been, through.their husbands, served with writs for unpaid bills, and if so how did they like the meeting ?"

COURT GOSSIP.

__al>oucliere's ..o.es on Royalty.

London, May 10. — I understand that Prince Selim Effendi, the Sultan's eldest son, is coming from Constantinople to re present his Majesty ab the jubilee celebra" bion nexb month. Prince Selim, who was born in 1870, is a very intelligent youth and understands bhe European languages and manners. He will be accompanied by a large retinue, and in all probability he will reside, while in London, ab a large private residence which has been placed at bhe Queen's disposal from June 15th to July _bh.

The Queen is to geb some splendid and valuable presents from India. Many of the jubilee gifts arc of truly Eastern magnifi cence. The Rajah of Cutch sends an im mense casket of solid gold, all carved and chased by the famous Cutchee of Hydera bad. It is to be brought to England by his brother-in-law, who is to represont him ab bhe jubilee fetes. The following story is told of the Prin cess of Wales :- A libtle while ago she visibed Milbank, bhe female prison, and was shown over bhe place by the devoted chaplain, Rev. George Merrick. In one of the cells the princess was shown a woman who was so violent, thab ib had been found necessary bo handcuff her. Her Royal Highness spoke kindly and tenderly to the woman, remonstrabed wibh her as bo her conducb and complebely broke down her sullenness. The refracbory woman bursb inbo bears, and on bhe Princess asking her to promise that if the handcuffs were re moved she would not be violent, she falbered oub in a voice choked wibh sobs, "I will really be good, my lady, if they take off them things." They were taken off. -

When the Prince of Wales was leaving Manchester a member of the Town Council pushed himself forward, and in a burst of loyalty said : " Bring the old woman with thee -next time!" The Prince looked sur prised, not exactly understanding to whom the civic dignitary was referring. Observ ing this, the latter said: "I mean your mother," for in this familiar and local fashion had he alluded to Her Majesty.

The Princess of Wales was looking very ill at Manchester, and people were pain fully struck by her languid and worried ap pearance. The Princess will go into society as little as possible during the illness of the Duchess of Cumberland.

One of the papers has recently announced that the Queen has sent a message to a lady who was divorced from her husband a few years ago, but was perfectly blameless and whose position excited general sympathy, that her Majesby is prepared to receive her at court. There is no truth' in - this sbabemenb.. The rule bhab divorced ladies cannob either attend or be presented at court is rigorously enforced. The Queen was exceedingly anxious bo relax bhis regu lation in cases where the lady's conduct has been unexceptionable ; but after bhe advice of the highest legal authorities had been taken, including the late Lord Cairns and Lord . Selborne, it was decided bhab ib would be injudicious to make any exceptions. A few years _ ago most desperate efforts were made in the highesb quarters to pass a well-known lady, who had divorced her firsb husband under somewhat sensational circumstances, but they failed, to the greab discomforb of bhe' lady, who, being badly insbructed in such mabbers, had deemed herself as certain bo receive bhe magical sards ; she had nob only ordered her dress, bub exhibibed ib bo many of her inbimabe friends. On bhe obher hand, a lady whois judicially separabed from her husband is ab liberty bo go bo courb if bhe separation were brought about by his misconduct. Sunningdale Park, where the Prince and Princess of Wales are going to reside during Ascob week, has been recenbly decerabed by Marolda. The grand salon is a sorb of royal ■'apartment.■■'.• The walls are covered With old brocabelle or surrounded by frames, and all bhe woodwork is breabed in gold enamel. The effecb of a number of shades in gold is exceedingly rich. Open ing into bhis aparbmerib is a boudoir in which blue is subsbibubed for gold. The dining-room is hung wibh old bapesbries after designs of Guilib, and there were not enough pieces for over doors. They have been imitated by paintings on canvas so well thab ib is difficult to distinguish be tween tho tapestry and this imitation. The ceiling represents the setting of the sun. The entrance hall is in marble, and above ib bhere is a cupola which is painbed bo repre senb bhe morning, wibh a cornice, on which bhere are palms and creepers which seem to hang down the hall. The rare and splendid collection of pictures, miniatures, and French china which was forwarded by the second Earl of Lonsdale, the Eskdale of "Coningsby" and " Tancred," is to be sold during the jubilee week. It is one of the finest in the world in those departments of art. The famous Sevres dessert service, which was made for Mme. Dubarry, is only surpassed by the Louis XVI. service in the green drawing-room at Windsor Castle, which is valued at L 60.000. The Lonsdale service was stolen from Paris during the early days of the revolution, and Lord Lonsdale gradually collected ib piece by piece. I believe ib is a facb bhab he only succeeded in obbaining bhe lasb piece fifty years afber he had purchased bhe firsb. The Quakers, having decided bo present a jubilee address to the Queen, began to look up the best manner of reaching the Queen, and they found upon examination that the members of their sect having busi ness with the Queen have the same right to audience as have embassadors and privy councillors. This claim was ab firsb dis puted by the Lord Chamberlain, bub in looking over bhe precedenbs he found thab the right was unquestioned, it-having been granted by King Charles 11. to William Perm for services rendered. The Quakers have been notified that this ancient right will be respected.

The Prince of Wales was riding in the Row last week and looking very well, and by no means thinner. He usually keeps his eyes pretty straight, but not so straight bub bhab he noticed and prompbly returned bhe salube of an artisan who was leaning againsb the railing. There were crowds of pebby horse-breakers racing- and tearino afber and all round him, as if bhey imagined bhe race to princely favour lay in being run away with and perhaps thrown in his sight. On speaking of the Queen's Birthday, a society paper says: In the evening the official world feasts each other. Lord Salisbury gave his dinner on this occasio in Arlington-street, and not, as hibherbo, ab the Foreign Office. This innovat on caused no little trouble toPhelpe,the Ameri can Minister, since, suspecting nothino-, he duly arrived ab bhe Foreign Office and sent his carriage away. Too late he discovered his mistake, jumped into a hansom, and, alas, on arriving in Arlington-street bo his horrorfound bhabhehadnomoney. Was there ever so sad a conbrasb ? On one side of bhe door bhere awaibed him a sumptuous feast provided by the Prime Minister of England; on the other side, in the dark and drizzle, was an angry and determined cabman de manding his shilling, thab shilling which he had not got. However, I believe Lord Salisbury's porter eventually advanced the sum and gob the American Minister out of pawn.

Medical. DR. J- COLLIS BROWNE'S CHLORODINE. The Original a_tl Only CJennine Advice to Invalids.—lf you wish to obtain quiet, refreshing sleep, free from headache, relief from pain and anguish, to calm and as suage the weary achings of protracted disease, invigorate the norvous media, and regulate the circulating systems of tho body, you will pro vide yourself with thatmarvellous remedy dis covered by Dr. J. Collis Browne (late Army Medical Staff), to which he gave the name of CHLORODYNE, and which is admitted by the profession to be the most wonderful and valu able remedy ever discovered. CHLORODYNE is the best remedy known for Coughs, Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma. CHRORODYNE acts like a charm in Diarrhoea, and is the only specific in Cholera and Dysentery CHLORODYNE effectually cuts short all at tacks of Epilepsy, Hysteria, Palpitation, and Spasms . ~,. ~ CHLORODYNE is the only palliative in Neuralgia. Rheumatism, Gout, Cancer, lootn ache, Meningitis, &c. FromSymes & Co., Pharmaceutical Chemists, Medical Hall, Simla, January., 1880. To J.JL. Davenport. Esq., 33, Great Russell-street, Bloomsbury, London. Dear Sir,—We embrace this opportunity of congratulating you upon the wide-spread reputation this just y esteemed medicine. Dr. J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne.has earned for itself, not only in Hindostan, but an over the East. As a remedy for general utility, we much question whether a better is imported into the country, and we shall be glad to hear of its finding a place in every Anglo-Indian home. The other brands, we are happy to say, are now relegated to the native bazaars, and, judging from their sale, we fancy their sojourn there will be evanescent. We could multiply In stances ad infinitum of the extraordinary efficacy of Dr. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne in Diarrhoea, and Dysentery, Spasms, Cramps, Neuralgia, the Yoniiting of Pregnancy, and as a general sedative, that have occurred under our personal observation during many years, in Choleraic Diarrhoea, and oven in the more terrible forms of Cholera itself, we have wit nessed its surprisingly controlling power. We have never used auy other form of this mcdi cine than Collis Browne's from a firm conviction that it is decidedly the best,and also from a sense of duty we owe to the profession and the public, as we are of opinion that the substitution ot any other than Collis Browne's is a deliberate BREACH OF FAITH ON THE PART OF THE CHEMIST TO PRESCRIBE AND PATIENT ALIKE. —We are, Sir, faithfully yours, Symes and Co., Members of the Pharm. Society of Great Britain, His Excellency the Viceroy's Chemists. CAUTION.—Vice-chancellor Sir W. Page Wood stated that Dr. J. Collis Browne was, undoubtedly, the Inventor of Chlorodyne ; that the story of the defendant Freeman was de liberately untrue, which, he regretted to say, had been sworn to.—See " The Times,' July 13, Sold in bottles at Is lid, 2s 9d, 4s 6d, and lis each. None is genuine without the words " Dr. J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne" on the Govern ment stamp. Overwhelming medical testimony accompanies each bottle. . Caution.—Beware of Piracy and Imitations.
