A Grand Duke's Tragi Story.

conjugal trajredy that marked the
early yean of this intelligent and
handsome prince, lie loll in love,
long years ago, with young lady at
tached to the househohl of htsmother,
and, like an hoaorabU man, ha made
the woman that he loved his wife.
The fact of this marriage came to the
knowledge of his father, who at once
caused the younjr couple to be sepa
rated by the lull exercise ot nu dee
rxdio authority. The Brand duke was
lent otf on a voyage round the world.
b mnrruure was annulled and his wile
compelled by threats of banishment
to Siberia and total separation from
her child, a boy of extraordinary
beauty and engaging Qualities, to con
sent to a second uniou with an obscure
physician. By this measure all possi
ble reunion with her royal husband
was rendered impossible. The subse
quent marriage of Alexander II to the
FrinceHs Dolgourouki. though only a
Diorganaticone, might, you will think,
have taught hiui a little humau feel-,
iug toward his son, and that son's
wife and offspring. In this tragic
story, it is said, to be found the true
reaaou why the Grand Duke Alexis,
tliough legally uumarned, has refusea
all negotiations for a royal alliance.
After the marriage of bis younger
brother, the Grand Duke Paul, be will
be the only single one among the
brothers of the reigning cxar. Paris

Paris has not witnessed any very
splendid pageant for more than twen

the display of Napoleon 111 when, in
1867, he was visited in turn by nearly
every crowned head tn Europe, and
by at least one Asiatic potentate, can
lind nothing that has taken place since
to equal it. France is republican, and
since the downfall of the empire has
become less osteutatioua.
It used to be the boast of Spain
that the court of Madrid was the only
great court of Europe. Madrid es sola

declare in their musical tongue; but
the glories of the old Spanisn court

is still a more stiff and rigid ceremo

in auy other, and a host of royal ser

extending to the memhers of their
cliiirela'S. It all grew out of a scheme of
the Methodist ministers, who organised
the I'reiu'hcrs' Investment Company lor
the purxse of sieculating in real estate.
few days ago an Episcopal minister
published in a SlieiTjeld paper a commu
nication suggesting the organization of
a Prcuchers' Improvement Company, to
which all ministers, and especially those
of the Methodist church be admitted.
He suggested that the object of the or
ganization he the moral and spiritual
improvement of ministers, and and they
he especially warned of the evils ot gamb
ling and speculation.. This drew forth
some red-hot personal replies from the
Methodist ministers and then the laymen
took it up. ; '
