Another line tied to an axe handle would alsoproduoe an ex plosion of the powder when the axe, which was placed in a conspicuous place, was moved from its position.

Healy, had returned from Berlin, after | >aiutiug a portrait of Priuoe Bismarok for - j’rinee Charles of Roumania. Since then I have had some opportunities to talk with Mr. Healy on the subject of his visit and its flattering results. Those who are aoquainted with Mr. Healy Jill be at no loss to aoouunt for the exceptional com pliment Prince Charles paid him. To those who have not that advantage it may be as well to say that eveh U this oity, where eleotioism in art is pushed to its highhst point, the portraits of Mr. Healy are as muoh esteemed as those of the best continental' painters. When our oompatriot received through the German legation the intimation that PrinOe Bis marok would be ready to oommence his sittings for the pioture on the 5th of Maroli, he was bnsily occupied finishing bis portrait of M. Gambetta for the Paris Salon. Unfortunately the illness of the popular tribune delkyed the work, and it seemed as if the artist would be plaoed in the embarrassing alternative of either leaving his portrait uhoompleted or of failing to keep his appointment in Berlin. He was relieved from this dilemma by the good nature of M. Gambetta, who, al though still Buffering, lent himself will ingly to the effort to expedite the sit tings. It was finished in time to permit the artist to keep his appointment with the Prinoe. On reaohing Berlin he proceeded at onoe to tho Foreign Offloe, Prinoe Bis- marck'r official residence, and there learned that it would be some hours before he oould obtain an interview, as the Rus sian Ambassador bad just arrived from Constantinople, and the Prinoe would be occupied with him until five in the after noon. This led him to ask some particulars as to the Chancellor's daily habits, so as that be might be enabled to adapt his sittings to them. He was informed that the Prinoe was in the habit of working all night, and that he rarely retired to bed before six in the morning. He generally slept until noon when he took a cup of lea, dressed and oooupied himself with his dispatches until two, when be received his Cabinet Ministers and Ambassadors. At half-past three he drove to the Parliament House, where be oooaaionally took part in the debates. Between five and six he fre quently went to see the Emperor, after which he dined. At five o’clock Mr. Healy was sent fur by the Prinoe. He desoribee the Chau- oellor as a splendidly proportioned man, about six feet three in height, and with grave but oourteous manners. He told him that be had ordered two rooms to be set apart for his work in that wing of the Foreign Office where his mother bad died and where he himself had passed much of his time when a young man, the Minister of the day having been an intimate friend of hiB. He asked the artist how many sittings he thought he wonld require, and on being told six (of two hours eaoh) he expressed himself alarmed at the idea of losing so muoh valuable time. After sitting awhile, however, he be- oame interested in the work, and as soon as he saw the head painted in, he said “This is really quite remarkable; it is quite different from the German, French and English sehools. Who wad’ your mas ter 1” ‘I studied first in the United Stab said Mr. Healy, “and then in Europe, never had any particular master." “I oan understand that,” replied the Prinoe. “You evidently strive to render the individual oharaoter of ( eaoh sitter. You have more to do with nature than with sobools.’’ The Princess saw the pioture after the second sitting, and from that time they both took great interest in the work. The Prinoe went to the artist's room as often as possible, and sometimes the siitings were very short. The time he gave most unwillingly was for the hands. He said he never saw an artist so particular about an exact likeness of the details of the per son of the Bitter. “Oar painters depict handsome hands,” be added, “and thatu all; but, Mr. Healy, I think you are right.” At one of the sittings the Prinoe asked Mr. Healy if be had ever exhibited at the Paris Baton. The artist replied in the affirmative, bnt added that the works he bad exhibited there were principally por traits. “Whose portraits?” inquired the Prince, with interest. “Oh, a good many, of persons not known to your Highness, ” replied the artist, “and some that are—snob as the Pope and M. Thiers.” “I always liked M. Thiers,” observed the Prinoe. “He hss all the politeness of the old sohool, whioh I am sorry to say is fast passing away, and I must admit that I found him an exoellent Frenohman in everything relating to the interests of bis oonntry." Another day,oontrary to his usual habit, he entered the artist's studio in a purple dressing gown and oap, and observing that Mr. Healy was rather struck by this transformation, for he is rarely or never seen out of uniform, he said to him with a smile:— “I see that you admire my coatume. Would I not have made a good bishop ?” After the reoeption at the paiaoe on the Emperor’s birthday he went straight to the studio without ohangifag his uniform, whiob, for full dress, was entirely white. “I am more at home in that,” he said, pointing to the portrait in which he was painted in undress uni form “and, still more at home," he added, with a smile, as he took a ohair in front of the pioture. “I oan tell you, that I am heartily glad to sit down after standing so tong at that oeremonious re oeption.” The Prinoe seldom gives dinnerparties, and, owing to the state of his health, rarely dines out. Mt. Healy, however, was honored with an invitation to dine with the family and a few guests. He was Bested between the Prinoe and Prinoess at table and was greatly interested by the Chancellor's conversation, whioh consisted principally of aneodotee of his early life. It should be stated that Prinoe Bismarok and his.family speak English and Frenoh fluently and, indeed, idiomatically. This contributed, of oourse, very muoh to the comfort and ease of our artist, whose stock of German is of the moat limited kind. Mr. Healy desoribee the Prinoess as a tall, graoeful woman of about fifty, with splendid eyes and features oombining strength and delioaoy. Her manners are most gracious and sympathetic. Her daughter is a fine young Woman, with dark eyes and hair and a very dear, pure oomplexion. Her face is a most interest ing one and indicates great sweetness of oharaoter. The son is about twenty-four and has a srtong resemblance to his fath er. He is in the army and is said to be a young man of high attainments. What is most to be admired in this family is the great modesty and amiability of its members and their apparent unconscious ness of the value of their exceptional po sition. On the 23d of March the potrait was shown to several officials and friends of the family, and appeared to give general satisfaction. The Baron de Hdatein. an t she fell to the floor a rival in Berlin, waa extravagant in hia of it, and pronounced it “an im- suooess." The Prinoe, smiling at hia enthusiasm, inquired of the artist if he oould make a copy of the work which would be as good as the original? Mr. Healy replied in the negative, unless with renewed sittings, and then the copy oould itself be called an original. Prinoe Bis marok inquired the price of a copy made under suoh oirenmstanoes. When the snm was named he observed, with a smile: That is a oobler’s fortune, bnt my wife says she wonld perfer it to any jewel —no matter how valuable—that I oould present her on her birthday, so it must be done. ” , It was then arranged that' the artist should meet the Prinoe at Kissingen in June, when the sittipgs neoessary for another portrait are (o be given. As the artist was about to leave, the Prinoess said to him: “Mr Healy, you had better stay and dine with us in your traveling dress, and you oan drive directly front here to the station.” Mr. Healy thanked her in warm terms for the kindness whioh she and the Prince bad shown him, but regretted that he oould not profit by her kind invitation, as he had promised to dine at the house of the American Minister, Mr. Bancroft Davis. On taking leave of the Prince, the artist said : - “Prinoe, I should like to have your au tograph, but I am told I must not ask suoh a favor.” “Ob,” said the Prinoe, laughing, “I will make an acoeption in your oase. I will write my name on a photograph and send it to you before you leave your Min ister’s.” As the artist was leaving the room reminded him again of their appointment at Kissingen, and added kindly: “I hope I shall meet you again in good health.” The above faots were gleaned from the artist in conversation. He was exceed ingly reserved in his aooonnt of bis visit, and waa rather startled when I asked his E ermission to publish suoh details as he ad given me. After a moment’s reflec tion, however, he said : “I have been talking to you only as a friend, and had no idea that you wanted to make use of what I have been saying to you. I have, however, mentioned noth ing that ooold be considered a violation of the hospitality and kindness I have re ceived. You oan, therefore, use your own diaoretion as to the use you may choose to make of our conversation.” I have said nothing as yet of the Prinoe’s portrait. It is three-quarter and life size, and impresses one at onoe by its air of truthfulness. The idea which it gives of the sitter is that of unusual, mental and phyaioal strength, the pose of the figure being, as it were, defensive, or, in other words, as if be was repelling some obnox ious argument. The attitude is a very happy one, as it serves to bring out all the strong points of his remarkable individ uality. The Prinoe is painted in the dose fitting, blue military frock which he rare ly quits and which haa become traditional. The bead is admirably moulded, and was painted in at onoe. The artist wisely re frained from retouohing it. As will be seen from what I have stated above, the family are more than satisfied with it, than which there oan be no better proof of the striking oharaoter of the likeness. DB. BIUHl.EIf BERCPU BfJBIAL, SIMPLE BITES—A BEAUTIFUL DBEAK FUL FILLED—THE LITTLE OEMETEBX. New York Sun.] A speoial train on the Long Island Rail road carried a large number of the friends of the late Dr. William Augustus Muhlen berg to 8b Johnland, where the great philanthropist was interred yesterday. On one of the buildings belonging to the oharitable sooiety of St. Johnland was displayed a white flag, which bore a blue St. Andrews cross. The flag was hoisted to the top of the staff, Or. Muhlenberg having requested before his death that it should not be plaoed at half mast, as he desired to have no mourning on hia ac count. Said be, “Put the flag at the top, as a token of rejoieing that I have won the victory over sin and death.” The bell in the-tower of the little wooden ohnroh tolled mournfully as the people were pas sing into the churoh. Iu front of the obanoel stood the blaok velvet-covered oasket which contained Dr. Muhlenberg’s remains. The body had been brought from New York to Bt. Johnland on the previous afternoon, and had remained in the ohspel all night. It was noon when the services began. They comprised the usual Episoopal bnr- ial rites, and were conducted by the Rev. Dr. Johfi MoNamara of the Bt. Johnland Ohnroh. A portion of the Twenty-third Psalm, commencing with the words “The Lord is my Shepherd,” was read, and a metrical version of the same was sung. The singing was done by the little boys and girls,of the St. Johnland school. At the close of the services in the church, eight pall bearers, all residents of the Episcopal Home, oarried the casket to the little cemetery, located on the hill a short distance from the ohapel. Walking in the prooession were Bishop Littlejohn of Long Island, Bishop Kerfoot of Pennsylvania, and the Rev. Drs. Holland, Dyer, Eaton, Geer, Lawrenoe, Matson, Flagg, Diller, Tuck er, Sterling, and others. There were also prominent laymen of the obnrch, includ ing the Hon. J. L. Smith, Howard Potter, Adam Norris, Wm. E. Chisolm, Thomas Whittaker, and Stephen Nash. After the ooffln had been deposited in the gravo, at the appropriate part of the servioe, Bishops Littlejohn and Kerfoot and several other persons took np earth in their hands and scattered it into the grave. Sobs were heard from many of the people, and tears were seen triokliDg down the bronzed faces of farmers who resided in the neighborhood, and all of whom loved Br. Muhlenberg for his Chris tian oharaoter and practical obarity. It was one of Dr. Muhlenberg’s special requests that he should be taken to St. Johnland for burial. He desired to rest with the poor people whom his oharity had benefited, and it is said that he also asked that a simple wooden oross, and not a costly monument of stone, should be placed over bis grave. From the cemetery, Long Island Sound oan bo seen in the distance. St. Johnland is one of the loveliest spots on the island. A long time ago Dr. Mublenburg had a dream in whioh there was a vision of just such a spot as St. Johnland. The Doctor searched far and near for the spot he saw in his dream, and found it in Suffolk, oonnty, Long Island. He named the place St. Johnland in honor of the apostle St. John, and made thereon a home for the poor of the Episoopal ohurcb. The worthy oharitable enterprise has been in existence abont ten years, and it accommodates nearly 500 aged people and children. The ohildren are tanght various industries. On the grounds there is a printing offloe, where the boys are employed at type- setting. There are in the community tailors, shoe-makers, laoe- menders, cap-makers, umbrella-makers and sewing-machine operators. The es tate comprises 5G5 aoros of land. The P rincipal buildings are the Church of the ’estimony of Jesus, a neat rural edifice, the gift of Mr. Adam Norrie; St. John’s Old Men’s Home, built by Mr. John Da vid Wolfe; the Boys’ House, given by Mrs. W. E. Chisholm; the Spencer and Wolf Home for Crippled Children; the Summer Retreat for Poor Women, a Li brary, and many dwelling houses and cot tages. The property is valued at $155,- 000, and the sooiety is unencumbered by This enterprise was the latest work GROCERIES. Notice Dissolution. T he firm ofwwift, muhphy * 4)0.
