3TATF BALL IN BERLIN.
Scenes ut the Palace--A Graphic De
scription of the AgoJ Em proas.
Cor. Neie hurt' At oil and Express.
Berlin, May Sl.—The Kaiser gives four
grand receptions every winter. The first of
the series is, more properly speaking, a state
concert, vriiile tho last, which usually takes
place in the month of April or May, just be
fore the Emperor leaves Berlin for the sum
mer, is enlivened by selections from the
opera and the ballet, of which latter the old
monarch is very fond. The invitation cards,
which are delivered by mounted orderlies,
bear tho following inscription:
By order of their Imperial Majesties, the grand
master of the court has the honor to invite
M to a ball and supper on the instant, at
8:30 o'clock, at tho royal palace.
Count Pkrponchkr.
The card is embossed with an imperial
crown and is embellished with an engraving
of their Majesties’ arms, and a picture of the
palace encircled by a wreath of laurel and
ivy leaves. Two additional cards are con
tained in the envelope. The first one of
these states that the ball will take place in
the White Hall of the castle, and demands
that ladies should be in full ball dress, tile
civilians in evening dress, and the officers in
court uniform. It adds that the princes who
are invited must arrive by 0 o’clock, and as
semble in the hall of the Knights of the
Black Eagle; that the generals and high offi
cials must reach the palace by a quarter to
nine, and assemble in the Chapter Hall; that
the diplomatic corps are to congregate in
the White Hall, and that the ordinary
guests must arrive before 8:80 p.m., and
take up their places in the great Picture
Gallery. The second of the two cards ar
ranges for access to the supper rooms at
stated hours, and according to rank.
At 8 o’clock the celebrated boulevard
“Unter den Linden” commences to be
thronged with guests on their way to the
palace. The road is kept open for them by
mounted constables. Most of the army and
navy officers invited are on foot, being of an
economical disposition, and their snow-white
dress trowsers are strapped down tight over
their irreproachably varnished boots. The
crowd is never tired of gazing open-mouthed
at the eighteenth century state carriages in
which the royalties are conveyed to the cas
tle. The latter is not the palace where their
majesties reside, which is far too small for
any court entertainments. The state balls
and concerts always take place in what is
known as the Royal Castle, an immense four
storied building at one end of the “Unter
den Linden” boulevard, and containing
some 600 rooms. The picture gallery, where
the ordinary guests assemble, and through
which the diplomatic corps have to pass to
reach their places in the White Hall, con
tains some very fine paintings. One of
these, by the court painter, Anton von Wer
ner, represents the scene of the proclama
tion of the empire in the Chateau of Ver
sailles in 1871. Another, by the well-known
painter, Munzel, pictures the coronation of
the Kaiser as King of Prussia at Konigs
berg. In 1862. Next to this hangs a life
sized portrait of the Prince of Wales in his
Prussian hussar uniform. The painting by
David of “Napoleon I. Crossing tho Alps,”
|which used to hang there until two years
ago, has now disappeared.
ARRIVAL OF THE GUESTS.
By 9 o’clock the scene has become very
brilliant. Count Herbert Bismarck, in his
light blue dragoon uniform; the rector of
the university, in his scarlet and gold em
broidered robes; the painter Munzel, whose
dwarf like stature scarcelv reaches the top of
the jackboots of the gardes du corps, and
the Cabinet Ministers, in their gold em
broidered uniforms, all attract the attention
of the novice. The chamberlains, with their
gold sticks of office and their gold key sewn
onto a bow of blue ribbon at tne back of the
waist, look singularly awkward in their
tunics, embroidered with heavy gold
horizontal bars from collar to skirt,
and cream-colored pantaloons. The Am
bassador of Austria, Count Seehveni,
passes through the gallery, magnificent in
nis fur-boruered costume of Hungarian
magnate and hussar-like busby, with a long,
waving heron plume. The Russian Am
bassador. Count Schouvaloff, is compara
tively plainly dressed in his uniform of a
general of cavalry, with the national white
astrakan bonnet. The most gorgeous uni
form, as far as gold embroideries are con
cerned. is that of the Turkish Ambassador,
who passes slowly by, gravely stroking his
beard with a truly Oriental gesture. As
soon as the guests have reached their
allotted places, non-commissioned officers of
the regiment of the gardes du corps station
themselves in couples at each of the folding
doors. Every one of thorn six feet two
iuches in height, they look magnificent
in their white uniforms, with a
large gold sun emblazoned on their
polished breast-plates, and the Prussian
eagle surmounting their silver-plated hel
met. Bhortly after 9 o’clock the guests are
ranged in long rows on either sides of their
respective rooms, and the imperial party
makes its appearance The procession is
headed by ahout a dozen chamberlains,
with their wands of office. These are fol
lowed by tho Grand Chamberlain, Count
Perponcher, who walks alone in solitary
grandeur. His appearance, notwithstand
ing his gorgeous uniform, is almost that of
a caricature, with his brown wig, his dyed
and abundantly waxed moustache and
imperial, and Ills somewhat mincing gait.
His salary amounts to S6.UOG jier annum.
A few paces behind him appears the old
Kaiser, with his daughter-in law, the Crown
Princess, on his arm. The old gentleman,
although somewhat bent and worn
looking. still remains a grand-looking man.
Every head is bent low as he passes. Next
comes the Crown Prince in his favorite
white cuirassier uniform, conducting his
daughter-in-law, Princess William, a big,
fair and fresh specimen of unrefined Teu
tonic womanhood. The Crown Prince, who
is now close upon 57 years of age, has con
siderably aged during the past, two or three
years. His look has lost the bright, merry
twinkle which was formerly its distinguish
ing feature, and his whole aspect bears
traces of worry, annoyance and anxiety.
His eldest son, Prince William, follows him,
offering his arm to his pretty married sister,
Princess Charlotte of Haxe-Meiningen.
The Prince, who is decked out in all
the splendor of the somewhat stagely
looking uniform of his hussar regiment,
is a perfect dwarf compared to bis
father and grandfather. A groat popularity
huuter, lie affects an exaggerated vivacity
and graciousness. His manners, notwith
standing all his efforts to please, give one
thoroughly the impression of insincerity,
and his efforts to pass as a wit are remarka
ble for their coarseness and their vulgarity.
His brother Henrv, the sailor prince, who is
but rarely at Berlin, and who conducts his
unmarried sister, Princess Victoria, is fur
more popular. Princess Victoria, although
exceedingly homely, is a nice, good-hearted
girl, whose only fault Isa tendency to be
come sentimental and to pose ns a victim of
Pnnce Bismarck’s policy when the name of
Prince Alexander, of Bulgaria, who whs
mi unsuccessful suitor for her hand
is mentioned. Prince* Charlotte is
[he leauty of the Imperial court.
Treated always with great harshness
Rnd severity by her mother, who is
jealous both of her talents and good looks
she was muiTied, not altogether in accord
ance with her wishes, to tho liavt insignifi
cant and impoverished of petty German
Princes. Tho procession is closed by any of
the minor Gorman royalties who may hap
pen to bo at Berlin, and lv a number of
nigh military and court ofllcials, including
the Duke of Sagan, tho Count of Pour tales,
Hold Marshal Moltke and many others.
Tho party makes its way to tho grand ball
reoni, and after tLo royalties have token
their Mats in a row of arm-chairs placed on
one side of the room, tho band strikes up
the familiar “Bluo Danube Waltz,” and tho
dancing begins. Tiie other side of the
room is Knud with a row of chairs for
ladies of all ranks In life who may be
present. As soon as the dancing is fuiriy
under way, the Emperor arises, and, accom
panied by the Grand Chamberlain and hi*
favorite aide-de-camp, Count I."lmdorff and
Prince Antony Radxiwill, withdraws to a
corner of the room, wbare he remains
Handing for an hour or more, abutting with
the various guests whom he desires to
specially favor with liis notice. The Crown
Prince follows his father’s example in an
other part of the room. Gradually the
whole aspect of the room becomes animated
and loses its stiff and formal air.
THE OLD EMPRESS.
Meanwhile a curious scene may bo wit
nessed in the picture gallery. A screen is
drawn aside from ono corner of the room,
and tho Empress Augusta, who has become
almost completely impotent and helpless,
appears reclining on a peculiarly constructed
arm-chair. Shockingly wrinkled and
shrunken, her appearance is rendered almost
horrible by the quantity of paint, enamel
and other artifices with which she seeks to
hide the ravages of her 77 years of age. An
enormous brown wig hides her scanty gray
locks, and her figure appeal’s almost like a
corpse in the exceedingly decollotte ball
dress of tender shades of colors which she
still affects. Add to this a most mincing and
affected manner, and a peculiarly shrill and
high-pitched touo of voice, and the por
trait of this old painted queen is complete.
One by one the prominent personages pres
ent are summoned to her side by her cham
berlain, Count Nesselrode, and after they
have kissed her bony hand she addresses
each person with a phrase prepared before
hand, which she considers suitable to her
case. She is thoroughly unpopular both at
court and among the people. The latter
look upon her as proud, pretentious, and a
Russian, while the court people are firmly
convinced that she has inherited some of the
lunacy of her mad ancestor, the Czar Paul.
In conclusion, it may be stated that not
withstanding the two French chefs who
have been imported by the Empress, at a
great expense, the refreshments are execra
ble, and unworthy of tho greatest military
power of the world.
WESTERN NOVELTY.
A Horse That Delivers Newspapers in
Indianapolis.
Indianapolis Cor. New York Journalist.
In this city, the capital of Indiana, where
as a rule everything that goes can be seen or
had, there is one novelty of which few other
cities can boast. It is a horse that delivers
daily to regular subscribers the Cincinnati
Enquirer. This horse, the property of
William Amyst, has been trainod to do this
work by his owner, and so thoroughly has
he learned his daily route that at no tune in
the past six months has he forgotten one
subscriber or any regular patron who buys
the Enquirer.
The owner, himself, known as one of the
best news agents in the Middle States, has
been the horse's instructor, and taught the
sagacious animal to know the streets, alleys
and lanes of Indianapolis, and the houses of
subscribers. The horse became famous for
his fast trotting, stopping promptly and in
good time at every place. He knows his busi
ness so well that when in the middle of any
block where there should be the last sub
scriber, he will turn around taking through
an alley for a short cut to the next patron.
The novelty of this delivery of a great news
paper like the Cincinnati Enquirer has
made subscribers for it, by people who buy
it because they like to see the horse oome
once a day regularly and perform his re
markable feat of leaving his master off at
the right house. Indianapolis, like other
cities of any size, has all the competition
that is wanted in the newspaper business,
but when the Enquirer adopted the new sys
tem Of delivery—something of an original
and different idea altogether from what has
ever been in vogue before —it knocked out
small rivals, leaving an exclusive field for
itself.
It is a common thing to see a dog come to
the front gate for his master’s paper; but
when a horse comes along to give it to the
dog—that act supplies the missing link in the
circulation of metropolitan dailies, and
much doubt is expressed whether or not
some other and more genial devices will ever
be heard of that in all respects will super
sede this mode of delivery. The horse’s
ability may lie readily estimated when I
say that he delivers to no less than 420 sub
scribers, scattered all over Indianapolis and
the suburbs, taking over five hours to com
plete the task. I wish your readers to under
stand that in thodelivery of such a route tho
horse does not jump out of his harness (be
cause he is hitched to a small cart) every
time. As his part of the work is
completed when he stops at the sub
scriber’s house, a small boj- completes the
job by taking the paper out of the little box
on the cart and sells it to patrons who are
in waiting. A regular time is kept up to
reach each patron, which being known, the
customer loses no time in waiting for his
paper. The memory of this noble animal is
certainly wonderful. Gentle as a lamb, he
trots in 2:55 when necessary, to have the
first package at the prominent news-stand
of the Bates House ahead of all other dailies.
So accurate is this animal in his daily course
that the large sum of #650 has been oflered
by an admirer, but was refused, the horse
costing three years ago only #75.
COLQUITT AND BROWN.
Gath’s Pen Pictures of Georgia's Sena-,
tors.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
“Let us now come to the State of Geor
gia.”
“Georgia has a man of rather quick, sil
very temperament and winning address on
the stump in Senator Colquitt. He is one
of the few Senators on either side who
rather figures among Christian statesmen.
In any church, North or South, he is a
popular card to make a speech. In conver
sation he can exert himself to please, and
hardly over fails to do so. He some
what resembles a Methodist Bishop
or Presiding Elder with intellectual
attachments. He likes to recount remi
niscenses and anecdotes, and brightens to
new acquaintances and enlarges Ills fine,
showy parts as his audience increases. But
in the Senate, which is now a working body,
oratory of the fervid sort seldom has a
chance. Dick Oglesby, of Illinois, tried it
on several times, and found that he was
talking to an audience which did not mag
netize. Mr. Colquitt is a man of good
sense, quite satisfied with his promotion in
the United States Senate, and he can make
his way into any circle, religious, or moral
or social.
“Joe Brown, of Georgia, is getting to be
an old man, and to feel his age. The State
is probably at the head of Southern States.
Both Savannah and Atlanta have had a de
velopment since the war in things purely
commercial and new. Brown is regarded
ns the rich man of the South, acquainted
with corporate managerflent, knowing
where a given amount of labor will produce
$100,009 as well as SI,OOO. His grasp of
large affairs makes him homogeneous to the
commercial tendency of the age, but in his
desire to advance Georgia—for which he
ought to have a good dual of credit—-be
stepped upon the toes of the Bourbons, and
they were afraid that he might not be
coming through the same wicket that
they ’ did to usefulness and promi
nence. Nevertheless few things take place
in Georgia about which he is not consulted,
nnd it is understood t hat he and his col
league are a sort of partnership toward ad
vancing Georgia's interests. Brown is a
philosophic man, nnd took his seat when ln
gn'ls raged away at him, and in the end it
Jiff him no harm, but rather credit, for the
custom lias ls**-n that when nnvbodv in the
Booth got into a confab to veil louder than
the other man. Old Joe Brown just sat
down and looked wise and sleepy alternately,
and that was the end of it.”
