A SET-ZO BETWEEN THE EMPEROr. OF AL'lRSIA
AND TE£ AftCHDUKE HEN HI—THE THESE
WARNINGS FROM A PEASANT KIEIL
FEom the Bocton Globe.
There took phice on March 19, at the Hof-
burg, the grand placa of the Emperor b'macis
Joseph of Austria, an event perhaps uueaoaled
io the recent annals of European royalty.
'Vhat gave rise to It was the visit which an old
Transylvanian peasant named Herker Visacky
had paid three days befora to the Emperor.
The peasant and his sovereign were old ac
quaintances, and a very peculiar link existed
between the two. Their connection dated
from the year in which the Emperor’s aecond
brother, the Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian,
was on the eve of his departure for Mexico.
A week or two previous to that event,
Herker Visacky, covered with dust and bear
ing every trace of extreme fatigue, demanded
to see his Majesty without delay. During the
interview the old man told him he had trav
eled all the way from Transylvania on foot to
Vienna because he had had a strange vision
in regard to the Emperor’s brother, the Arch
duke Ferdinand Maximilian. He said he had
seen, in this vision, the flatter in a foreign
country, standing np before a file of soldiers,
who was shooting at him. Herker Visacky
added that he bad repeatedly bad other
visions of important events, which had after
ward turned out to be literally true; Francis
Joseph, like most of the Hapsburgs, is super
stitious, and the words of the old Transylva
nian peasant made a deep impression on him.
He thanked Herker Visacky, made him a
liberal present, and asked him to visit him
again if he had anything further to communi
cate.
Whether Francis Joseph communicated the
vision of the old Transylvanian peasant to
his enthusiastic brother or not is unknown;
but certain it Is that hereceit id a second visit
from Heiker Visacky in the spring of i860,
immediately previous to the breaking out of
the war between Prussia and Germany. The
peasant predicted to him iu the most impres
sive language and with many startling details
the disastrous issue of the impending cam
paign. The Emperor listened re*pectlully to
the old man, but did not heed his warning.
It may be imagined that he looked upon Her
ker Visacky as a seer when his predictions a
lew weeks afterward were verified, and still
more so when his unfortunate brother Maxi
milian, in the following year, fell dead under
the ballets of Jaarez’s soldiers at Qaeretaro.jl
After that second visit Francis Joseph did
not hear anything further fiom the peasant
until the 8th of March last. On this occasion
the old peasant said that he had seen in anoth
er vision a Prince of the Imperial House, as
Regent of the Empire, opening the Austrian
Parliament; that the Prince had been hailed
as liberator of the country, and had pledged
himself to rule it thenceforth in a truly liberal
spirit. This prince, he added, was married to
a low-born woman, and for some time past
had been io Vienna without the Emperor’s
knowledge. Francis Joseph was startled.
He sent for the Chief of the Secret Police of
Vienna, and asked him to find ont whether or
not the Archduke Henry, who, it is well
known, is married to an actress of very hum
ble descent, and who, in consequence, is not
allowed to live in the imperial court, was se
cretly in the city. About noon, on the 11th
of March, after a two-days’ search, the Empe
ror was informed that the Archduke bad been
for several weeks incognitj at a private house
in Wieden suburb.
This added to the Emperor’s agitation, and
he sent at once for the Archduke Henry, his
cousin. What occurred next is not accurate
ly known, but after a brief and angry conver
sation between the two Hapsburgs, the ser
vants in the ante-room were startled by a
noise like that of two persons engaged in a
scuffle, mingled with loud curses. The door
was suddenly torn open, the Emperor ap
peared with bis face flashed crimson wita
auger, and dragged out the Archduke Henry,
whose nose was bleeding prolusely. There
could be no doubt that the Emperor and his
Archducal cousin had been fighting. Before
the servants were able to recover from their
amazement the Archduke had made his exit
from the ante room and the Emperor had
returned to his cabinet, where he remained
for several hours afterward. Next day the
servants who had hitherto done duty in the
imperial ante-room were sent to one of the
Emperor's castles in Dalmatia, no doubt to
prevent them from divulging the scandalous
affair. But it has leaked out nevertheless,
and the people of Vienna say that ever since
Libenyl in 1856 wouDded the Emperor with a
knife in the neck Francis Joseph has been
subject to sadden and uncontrollable ebulli
tions of terrible auger, and that on such
occasions he will at once come from words to
blows.

Intemperance.
From the Boston Herald, April 16th.
Mrs. Elizabeth R. Rice, of 12 Ferdinand
street, died on Sunday, the Gth of April, after
being confined to her room for several days,
suffering with nervous prostration incident to
an immoderate nse of alcoholic stimulants.
She was 48 years of age, and possessed of
properly valued at from forty to fifty thou
sand dollars, including the house she lived
in. For some fifteen years—or ever since
the sudden death of her two little children,
she had been addicted to the use of in
toxicating drink, and every two or three
weeks would have spells of getting helpless
ly intoxicated, but she never would take a so
cial glass with any one. Neither wonld she
touch liquor, except as these spells came up
on her, and then no power could stop her.
She would then drink until she became nau
seated, when the bottle would have to be re
moved, and even the mantle and glasses thor
oughly washed, that there should not be left
even a smell of the liquor in the room.
IVUile drinking she woald take no nourish
ment; but when the bottle was gone, she
would build up on grnel, broths, etc , and in a
few days be about the hours as well as ever.
Being a cultivated woman, she painted beau
tiful winter and summer scenes for her par
lors, and with her needle would do exquisite
embroidery of alt descriptions. Neigh
bors and friends were cognizant of her
great weakness, and deeply sympathized
with her. She was a generous-hearted
woman, and wonld ofted provide worm
and comfortable clothing for poor chil
dren that she might find upon the street. In
many ways did sne show that she was a per
son of good heart and womanly instincts.
Her daughter, a married woman and only
child, however, for reasons of her own, for
sook her mother and had nothing to do with
her.
Mrs. Bice's friends have demanded an in
quest, on the ground that they believe she
had been hurried out of the world by wil
ful neglect or causes requiring on investiga
tion.
Mr. Foye, the attending physician, tried to
prevent an inquest being held, and it is said
that one of the most important witnesses in
the case has disappeared, and cannot be
- Tcund.
