THE EMPRESS EUGENIE.
Her Mode of Life While In a Neapolitan
Villa.
From the New York Sun.
London, April 2> —' The Empress Eugenie
will soon return to England, having been
much benefitxl by her lengthened stay
abroad, and particularly by her visit to
Naples, which she has prolonged beyond hor
original intentions. The Villa Delahante,
which she occupies, was formerly the prop
erty of the Comte d’Aquila, uncle of the
no \v exiled King, Francesco IL It is
situated at the extreme point of the penin
sula of Pausilippo, and at its feet stretches
the unparalleled beauty of the bay, crowned
on the opposite side by the eternal smoke of
Vesuvius, above the terraced towns of
Herculaneum, Pompeii and Portici.
The residence consists, in fact, of thi-ee
distinct and separate buildings. The largest
is inhabited by the Empress herself, with
Jlme. Le Breton Bourbaky, the faithful
companion of her misfortunes and banish
ment~and has, besides, some guest chambers
which are kept in readiness for any intimate
friends and followers who may chance to
come south. During the winter they have
been tenanted by the Marquise de la Tour
Maubourg, once lady in waiting at the Tul
leries, the Duke and Duchess de Mouchy,
members of the imperial family, and sev
eral others. The second villa, called
the Gran Foresteria, shelters M. Pistri, sec
retary of the Empress, young M. Chevrau,
son of the last Minister of the Interior un
der the empire, and minor members of the
household. A small park and good pleasure
grounds surround both dwellings and con
tinue to the very margin of the bay, where
they join with the third building, the Pic
cola Foresteria, which is close to the
water, and a small harbor affording
anchorage to a steam yacht procured
bv the English Consul for her majesty,
and one which, whenever the weather per
mits, which is almost daily, she takes Tong
excursions with her court of two, and any
chance guest of the hour. Not unfrequent
]y the party is landed for a while at Portici,
or on some of the neighboring islands, and
then the Empress, leaning on her tall cane,
takes long walks with much of her old de
light in pedestrian excercise. When not
smling around the gulf, she drives inland or
goes to Naples, the city being not more than
three miles distant from the villa.
Eugenie, while recovering health and
strength, has now openly renounced any
pretension to youthfulness and the futile at
tempts with which she tried to artificially
counteract the too visible stigmas of age,
disease and sorrow. She looks more hand
some and dignified in her deep mourning
under the crown of her snow-white hair
than she did before she allowed her wan fea
tures to testify to her advancing years.
She had not long arrived at the villa be
fore most of the noble and distinguished Ne
-1 apolitan families requested to be presented
to her, and soon she received the most flat
tering homage from the Colonnas. the Bo vi
nos and the San Donatos. The General
Commander of Naples and the Cardinal
Archbishop of San Felice are her frequent
visitors, as also Prince Charles and Cardinal
Lucien Bonaparte, her relations by mar
riage. It is not only in the higher circles
that the dethroned sovereign meets with
sympathy and regard; the lower classes, the
people, know her well, mid are ever prompt
to shower upon her their warm
hearted, effusive, Italian admira
tion. Her charity and liberality,
which are wide and suitable, have won for
her many humble partisans, and whenever
she enters a public building, a museum, a
gallery, a church, the crowd collects, and
outspoken expressions of love and praise
greet her ear. She is generally accompanied
m her little expeditions in the capital by her
first cousin, the Duchess de Bivona, Slme.
Le Breton, and M. Pietri. Although deeply
sensible of the affectionate reception vouch
safed to her, the Empress is careful not to
excite or encourage public or official demon
strations, and she did not, as \vas reported,
go in person to meet the wounded Italian
soldiers on their return from Massowah,
contenting herself with having her expres
sions of sympathy conveyed to them with
more substantia! tokens of her generosity.
Life at the Villa Delahante is both simple
and regular. Early to bed and early to rise
is the adopted rulo. Before breakfast the
Empress crosses the park, and leaving it by
the gates opening on the Pausilippo road,
attends mass at a small church belonging to
the Capere Minotolos, who, like most Ital
ian families of a certain rank, have then
private chapel and chaplains. Having dis
tributed her daily aims to the numerous
beggars, cripples, and lazzaroni that throng
around the doors, she starts for a brisk ma
tutinal walk, and returns home for
the 11 o’clock dejeuner, at which are
present her friends and any passing
guests. These ore varied and numerous.
She has entertained in turn Dr. Scott, the
man who accompanied the Prince Imperial
to Zululand and brought back his body to
England; the Duchess of Edinburgh and the
Marchioness of Lome, when they visited
Naples from Malta, and Prince Napoleon,
wno brought his son Louis to the villa on liis
return from his journey round the world.
The relations of the father with his cousin,
if slightly strained, are on the- whole courte
ous and gravely cordial, the Prince having
always kept a feeling of gratitude for the
visit the Empress paid him when he was a
prisoner in the Conciergerie.
About 1 o'clock the party descends to the
little Foresteria to join the yacht, the cruise
astmg till 5, the hour at which the privi
kpu liaftiftie* from Naples muster strongly,
the 1 hes de Vlmperatrice so much sought
utter, so brilliant and select in Paris and
compiegne, have lost little of their real at
tractiveness in the southern villa. It is the
time for free conversation, for unfettered
Mchange of opinions on politics, literature,
the topics of the hour, tne forebodings of
the future, the hostess as of yore forgetting
her ra.uk, encouraging individual liberty of
thought ami expression. She is still the
&V! <e woman who, when Victor Hugo’s
violent pamphlet, “Napoleon le Petit,"
appeared, did not shrink from
discussing it dispassionately be
wre his courtiers, who had not even dared
to broach the subject. Whatever may have
’”en her secret concern at the inimical tone
ttt , ne ’ n his appreciation of Napoleon
ill., she would not, like Princess Mathilde,
" nv ’° broken off a long and sincere intimacy
the author on account of the severity
ot bis criticism, Monsieur Taine was deeply
grieved when the severance of the old frienu-
Knip was made manifest to him by the rend
ing o! a. p. p. c. card sent by the incensed
rnneess Deuiidoff, and, talking it over with
remarked: “I cannot console my
wdl lor having lost so old a friend on ac
fount of a book.” “In order to express my
feelings freely,” answered Renan, “I have
quarreled with a far higher dame than a
princess —with tho church.”
Eight is (he dinner hour, followed by the
•ustnl ution of the mail just, arrived, bud at
i . t ‘ lu , s ’S lla l for retiring is given. The Em
press, however, docs not at once seek her
oed; she constitutionally requires but little
sleep, and generally spends the small hours
or tire night in attending to her private cor
respondence and to certain details of busi
ness. Even at a distance sho actively mid
unceasingly sui>erintends the works of the
mausoleum erected at Farnborough by tho
1 J!?? c “ wcliitoet, Detailleur. She eagerly
rooks forward to the completion of tho
monument und connucmorativo ehnpol, de

Jf*'" Hi. nnd the ill-fated Prince Imperial.

The Empress Eugenie is not in tho habit
”? v '[ nK . or any public or private
visit sho intends to pay:’ she has tho desire
or avoiding as much as possible any appar
ent ostentation or of soeming to lay claim to
special regard; sho cuiuoh and goes, neither
•meeting an easily unveiled incognito nor
courting noisy publicity. Hbo is fond of
j? '’lunate, its customs, its inhabi
tTro H'o somewhat exuberant piety, tho
rustling outdoor life, tho national incuria,
tne numerous bizarre exvotos glistening on
™’ •brine*, the statues of tho Virgin at the
street, corners, remind hor of hor own na
tive Noi,pi, i lor gj, .pood \ypon she used to
defy the proprieties by throwing hor jewels
at a successful torrero in the open circus, or
travel on horseback in the national cos
tume of a maja from Madrid to Seville,
reckless of brigands, ransoms or maternal
authority.
Now. in her widowhood, her bereaved
motherhood, her headlong fall from almost
miraculous elevation, she quietly submits to
the prescriptions of her physicians, who
have ordered her to take exercise and to
seek amusement and distraction to divert
her mind and strengthen her body; and if
she does not actually go out of the placid,
even tenor of-tier way to obey these man
dates, she no longer shuts herself up from
the world whose idol she once was, but al
lows the world to come to her, receiving all
with the quiet grace and rare smile that
used to be her greatest charm.
At the end of her stay at tho Villa Dela
hante, the Empress Eugenie will return di
rectly to Farnborough, without even break
ing her journey at Rome. M. de S.
REMARKABLE FIDELITY.
A Man Sentenced, to Prison Acts as
His Own Keeper.
The Reno, Nev., Gazette learns of a rath
er unusual and peculiar occurrence in Car
son last Saturday afternoon. The evening
of the previous day Sheriff Sweeney, of
Eureka county, arrived in Reno, having in
his custody L. O. Benedict, who hail been
found guilty of embezzling funds belonging
to a Base Range lodge of Odd Fellows while
he was secretary of it, and sentenced to the
penitentiary for two years. The Sheriff
and prisoner were obliged to remain in town
until the next morning before they
could get a train for the State capi
tal, where the penitentiary is lo
cated. Before the train started Benedict
expressed a desire to 6eo certain friends in
Reno. Sweeney, feeling confident that the
convicted man would not attempt to escape,
told him he could do so if he would take the
passenger train that left for Carson at 1:45
o’clock that afternoon and go direct to the
prison and deliver himself up _to Warden
McCullough. Sweeney went oh to explain
that he was desirous of going to Virginia
City, and guessed he would go on the train
about to leave. Benedict, promising to do
as was told, was given the official docu
ments, with the instructions that they be
given upon his arrival at the prison to the
warden. A moment afterward he was left
alone, Sweeney having boarded, the train
that was just moving off.
Benedict saw his Reno friends, and at 1:30
o’clock was aboard the train that was to
take him to Carson. Upon his arrival at
the capital he started off at once for the
prison. Before he had proceeded up the
main street very far he met Warden McCul
lough aucl recognized him.
“I have some business here for you to
look after,” said Benedict.
“All right,” said the warden; “what is
itr
“I have been convicted of embezzlement
and sentenced to the State penitentiary for
two years. Here are the documents. Sheriff
Sweeney had to go to Virginia City and he
gave them to me to deliver to you.”
“How can I know that you are the man
Benedict spoken of in the papers J” asked the
warden. “This looks like a rather peculiar
case. I cannot receive you at the prison
until you are properly vouched for, or at
least identified.
“That is impossible just now,” replied
Benedict, “for I don’t know of a soul in
Carson that I am acquainted with.”
“How long has it been since Sweeney left
you to go to Virginia City?”
“Since C>:4s o’clock this "morning.”
“ Well, I would advise that you go to the
telegraph office, send a message to Mr.
Sweeney stating that I refuse to accept you
until you are at least identified, and then go
to the Ormsby House and remain there until
he ari-ives.”
The guilt-oppressed and bewildered con
vict, a man nearly 60 years of age, alone
and friendless, scarcely knew what to do,
but finally did as he was bade, and after
securing a room at the hotel sat down and
cried. Sweeney arrived that evening and
took him over to the prison.
ON A RUNAWAY TRAIN.
Five Plucky Brakemen—The Curious
Cause of the Mishap.
From the Cumberland Times.
The telegraph operators along the line of
the Cumberland and Pennsylvania railroad
between this city and Mount .Savage were
startled on Saturday afternoon last by hear
ing a roar and rattle, and seeing a long
cloud of dust go rushing by their offices.
For some time they were at a loss to know
the cause ; that a train had run aw ay they
knew, by being able to discern some three
or four care, but not until some time after
ward did they glean tho facts of the case,
which were these:
A train of thirty-live Baltimore and Ohio
loaded coal hoppers left Mount Savage,
bound for Cumberland, shortly after 1
o’clock on that day. Just before reaching
Barrellsville it was discovered that, for
some reason or another, the brakes hod no
effect upon the cars. The engineer imme
diately reversed his engine, which blew out
the cylinder heads. Destruction seemingly
stared him in the face, and, together with
the fireman, he jumped for his life. The
brakemen, of whom there were five, sta
tioned at different portions of the train,
went pluckily and steadily to work, and,
screwing the brakes of each car down
tightly as they wont, retreated to the last
car, which they uncoupled, and then put tho
brakes on. This placed it under control, and
they followed on down by gravity, when
they found the train at a standstill just
above the iron bridge the other side of the
Narrows.
Upon examining into the cause of the
failure of tho brakes to work, they found
that the accumulation of axle grease, de
posited in the boxes during the cold
weather, had, owing to the sudden change
in temperature on Saturday, melted and
dripped to the tracks, oiling them, and in
turn the wheels, which Slipped and slid
around in the brake grips, rendering inef
fectual their action. Another engine was
procured and the train brought to the city.
WOMEN AS TRAVELERS.
Polite Attentions—A Gallant Conduc
tor-Sleeping Car Comfort.
Florida Utter in Boston Transcript.
Capt. Brabo, of the Anita, was, if any
thing. more entertaining than Cant. Lund,
Jr. Ho certainly talked told more
stories. He was careful not to toll anything
about alligators that he could not prove.
He talked well into tho evening and had a
large audience. As several of thepassen
get? expressed it, "the Captain is half the
trip;” and he certainly did add much inter
est to it. Ho was well posted, knew tho
haunt* of the alligators, and when he said
wo would sec one at a certain point we were
seldom disappointed. Altogether Yve count
ed between 85 and 40 of them on our
trip up that would measure from one
foot 1 1 > fourteen foot 1 u length. At one time
the Captain said: “When we round that
ix>int on the left you will see a hump-backed
alligatorand sure enough, when wo
rounded the point there lay on the cast
bank in the warm mud, basking in the sun,
an alligator about nine fret long, with a huge
bump on hLs bock. He required many toots
of tho whistle, ns did many of them, before
lie awoke and slipped off into the river. By
and by one laxly passenger, thinking the
Captain was exerting himself to entertain
the passengers, ventured to remark: “Isn't
the Captain tired telling us so many stories,
and pointing out interesting places and
things 1” “Oh, no,” said the Captain,
“1 am wound tin every day, and it would
not do to stop me before I run down. YV lieu
I run down I will tell you;” and sure enough,
as wo neared our destination, he remarked:
“i am running down;” and soon his voice
was heard giving orders to the crew.

Tlie Real Estate Met
*■ ———— . i
The transactions in realty have been quite
numerous thus far this month. The sales of
lots by the city at tho Court House on the
iid inst. have evidenced the confidence that
our people have in tho future of the city.
Judicious Advertising and a
Good Demand .
Have resulted in the lessening of my offer
ings very materially.
Yet I have a few pieces of improve prop
erty worthy the attention of those desiring
homes.
Choice Lots
Are certainly very scarce. The western
side seems to be in favor now.
Quite an inquiry has started up for lots
west of Whitaker street.
Ground
Seems to be in demand, and the building
public naturally prefer tho highest that can
be found.
Tho ground rises from Whitaker street
westward. While there are but few left in
that, section for sale, I have ou my list a few
on flail and Gwinnett streets, which are
good.
1 have also one or two good lots on Lorch
street (next north of Hall, between Jefferson
and Montgomery) which 1 can recommend
to those who want to get in a good neighbor
hood, but who do not care to pay fancy
prices.
On West Broad and Gwinnett I have some
really excellent lots, which I am able to soil
quite low for cash.
West of West Broad
There are a few fine building sites worthy
the attention of speculators, or |>ermanent
in vestnrs. I am able to give easy terms upon
these lots, and advise those who wish to
secure sites for future operations to send in
for a plat from which to make their selec
tions.
