Victoria in the dingy old Palace of Kensing ton. Tlie wildest fancy could hardly have g eie so far as to jiredict tliat in eighten years and a few weeks finm that day this little baby, about whom no one made any fat-, should be called upon to rule over the English nation, nor tliat fifty years still further one of the grandest nations und'-r the sun should unite in celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of a woman’s reign. Home such wild imagin ings may have held secret sway in the mother's heart, as they might be apt to do in the heart of any mother in whose veins ran royal blood, and her father, the Duke of Kent, in. ail probability also had his fancy tirerl on the subject. At any rate, however that may be, just Is-fore the interesting •vent in liis family was to take pla<c, tins bnpecuniuui and much disciplined Prince tls'ii living on the Continent, borrowed moagy enough to return to England in order that his child might be born a Briton. THE V AMILY HISTORY. Victoria is the granddaughter of George 111., and the eighth in dews-nt, through the female line, of that James Htuart who United the crowns of England and Scot land. Ho from all sides—English. Hootch and German—the Queen's family has leen royal, ducal or otherwise noble for twenty five generations, near MUG years. When tfie naxonx in England were conquered by the normal is tie- line of Alfred the Great was united with the royal line of neotlaml. the alliance was further cemented the marriage of a Inter Sentcfe kmg with the daughter of one <rf the N- -naan kings f England, and still later. Margaret, daughter of Henry YTL -.if Eng land. named James IV. of rcottend. In the nvaaatune all th- litspered cjairus to the throne of Ec, ha s haa Gen merged in •®e br the marriage of Henry VII.

So on her death her father's line i- eytmet. and the crown went to her B:n. Jam VI .if Scotland. and J airy- I of England. He was a coward, a pedant. a glutton and a voluptuary: but he was the undoubted heir of Alfred the Great, of tfe- Piantagenete both York and Lancaster, of Henry Ttrier, and of W liiiam the Coo qoej-ir.

She had a daughter. S/phia, who had married Ernest Augustus, sovereign of Hanover: so the British Parliament, anticipating the death of Queen Anne without living issue, had enacted that the crown right should be “in the Prince-#, .Sophia and the heir- of her liody, being Protestants." She died before Anne, however, and her son be came King of England and elector of Han over as George I. This brought in the house of Hanover ami the four Georges, and finally Victoria. In the meantime the Catholic side of the old Stuart line, namely, the descendants of James II through his Catholic sons, had become extinct, so all claims of all race*?, religions and dynasties are once more united in Victoria. George 111. was succeeded by his oldest son, George IV., who died without legiti mate issue and was succeeded hv Wiluam IV. third son of George 111. Early on June 20, 1837. he too died without legitimate issue: so the right to the crown went next to the fourth son. Edward. Duke of Kent, hut as that prince had died soon after the birth of his only daughter, Victoria, sbe succeeded to his lights. There still remained the fifth son of George IIL, Ernest. Duke of Cumberland; and the law of Hanover did not allow a woman to reign (that country had become a king dom), Ernest succeeded to the crown an i took himself off. to the great de l ghtof Englishmen of all ranks, who de tested him and were pleased with the sepa ration of the kingdoms. Victoria was liom at Kensington palace, and was but 18 year* old when fhe became Queen. Her mother had n-ared her in great seclusion, and her education and training were excellent. victoria’s succession announced. The dijuitari*** who went before daylight to announce to the Princess the death of her loyal relate that “to prove that she did not keep them waiting she came into the room in a loose white night-gown and shawl, her night cap thrown off and ter hair fail n ; upon her shoulders, her t-et in slipi-rs, tears in her eyes, but per fectly collected and dignified.’' Lord Mel bourne. the Prime Min sjer. set the meeting of the Privy Council at 11 o'clock that dav; there the Queeu took the coronation oath, and the Cabinet Minister* and other Privy Councilors swondhllegiuiH-i to her and ex prtOKsl themselves charmed by her gentle dignity and engaging manners. The* proclamation of the new sovereign, and her speech in person from the throne in the House of Irds, lollowod soon after; but bar public coronation and the brilliant pog-autry conn** -ted therewith took place the next year—Juni 3d, INl\ While many person* or royal blood and many noblemen from various ports of Europe appeared in the procession, public interest centered on Marshal Boult, Duke of Dalmatia, Napoleon's strong supporter, commander of the Old Guard at Lutzen and opponent of Wellington in Bpiin. He had been sent By I/juis Philippe, King of tlie French, is ambassador extraordinary for this occasion, and was received by all tanks of the people with the wildest entfm.. asm. Another ooiispicOOU* figure was til- Austrian Ambassador, Prince Esterbaz,', wboso ilres# was literally ablaze with di. - moil l“. Indeed, “the Estr-rhazy fliamonds - ’ became a synonym for grandeur. The re ception of Boult' with other act* of the young Queen, indicated that an era of liberal ideal had set in. and the effect was heightened by the fact that soon after she conferred the honor of knighthood on Sir Moses Monteflore, the first Jew to b*- elected .Sheriff of London and the first to receive honors from a monarch since tie- beginning of the religious wais. Complete emanci|>a tion of Jews and Catholics, and many minor measures of liberty followed in due course. THE YOU SO QUEEN'S COUNCILLORS. The Queen was surrounded and supported by able men. The Whigs, or Liberals, as now tailed, were in power. At the head of ti c cabinet.

Other famous men then in Parliament were Mr. Orotc. the historian of Greece; Edward Lvtton Bulwer, afterward Lord Lytton; Lord John Bussell. Lord Palmerston, Hir Robert Peel, Mr. Gladstone. Mr. Roebuck and Ixtrd Stanley, afterwanl lord Derby. Daniel O'Connell still remained, btr great work was done, and the rest of hi* public life was painful and for the most part unprofitable.

Dr. Carver, the famous crack shot, met with a serious and painful accident to his eyes last night by a bursting cartridge while giving an exhibition of his fancy shot at Ridgway Park. The exact outcome of the injury cannot now be determined, but it is feared that the marksman will lose the sight of one, if not both, of his optics. The in jury was the result of an accident for which no one can be directly blamed. The in iured man was immediately taken to Wills' Ive Hospital, on above Eighteenth, where he received treatment from Dr. Con rad Borens, of 192-5 Vine street, who has temporarily taken the place of the regular physician. AN OVERLOADED CARTRIDGE. The accident occurred about 9:80 o’clock, and was witnessed by a large crowd. Dr. Carver himself had overloaded the cartridge. He prepares all his own ammunition. During the afternoon he was engaged in loading the cartridges which were known as “No. 12." To shoot under the electric light is very difficult, and requires particular calcula tions as to the amount of powder used. Dr. Carver himself prepared tne cartridges, and says that the one which exploded must have been overcharged. The exhibition of his shooting began at about 9:30 o'clock and was a? glass balls. He had only shot a few times when the ac cident occurred. When the cartridg- ex ploded the gun dropped from the I lector's grasp, and, with a cry of pain, he staggered nhnut. holding his hands to Ills eves. The spectators crowded around the injured man to learn how badly he was hurt. It was at fir.-t supposed that the gun had exploded, and that a piece of the metal had caused a fatal wound ip the head. Fortunately such was not so. Although sufferin'; from much lin, the doctor declared he would lie all right in a few days. A reporter saw the wounded man just after the ojieration hail becu performed on his eye* at the hospital. He declared that lie with both eyes, but was in stantly iWP'Jisl by Dr. Bern is, as t he excite ment "oMßlking alut the accident would he.p to#ylard a speedy recovery. Around Ins hJf and over his eyes was secured a blacMSlandage, excluding all light. He stuiMKr'wmj feeling easier, but tnere was pain He aiid the accident wJßjff suclra character that it would not proliably happen again in a thousand years. Dr. Berens -aid that he could not then teil just what effect the injury would have. “There is no doubt,” said the doctor, “that Carver fortunately cloned his eyes with the tlnsh of the explosion, thereby preventing what otherwise would surely nave destroyed his sight. The sight is not destroyed, and the only danger to be feared, I think, is is front inflammation. It may be that he will be out again in a few days.” With the injured man at the hospital was J. L Brewer, tne alleged champion shot of America He was engaged at Ridgway Purk to shoot with Dr. Carver. John but ton. of this city, also attended the doctor. The exhibition of shooting at the park dunng the past few days has raised a storm of indignation and fear from the passengers on the ferry boats, who object to the bullets from the shooter's guns coming in near prox imity to their head*. * * * * Confidential advice, to either sex, on delicate diseases.

Pi v<- al Ckiafpj Tribune. A carious feminine mania is called to mind by toe re.-at tragic news from Siu njeh. Tw> • y-vxug ladies of that city— boron.:sbjs—have couimitte-d suicide by drowning in tAc otamberg lake, at the very spoc where the mad King Louis drowned himself last year. The names of these la dies are familiar to all who have been ad mitted to the best Munich society. They were sisters, aged if. and -1. and were famed for their oeauty. Their family is a very wealthy and noble one. Tee mania to which they fell victims had its origin fifteen or sixteen years ago. The young King was then at the height of his romantic fame. His ideally handsome likeness was to b? seen everywhere, and everywhere you heard talk of iiis poetic melancholy, his romantic spirit and his confirmed celibacy. Naturally be became an object of interest to senti m ntal young ladies. Presently, among the otner absurd tales that were told of Him. there went abroad the story that he spent most of his tune in wandering about ais kingdom in disgu.se. He haunted shady lanes and romantic spots, seeking for some fair maiden who should be his chosen bride. Weil, this silly tale was believed, and set theusands of ’ hearts to fluttering. Each maiden wondered if she would be his choice if he chanced to meet her under the lime trees. And she hesitated to plight her troth to her village lover until she should have a chance to meet the King. iso it came to pass t.iat in the village of Bertoidshofen, in the romantic mountain region of Southern Bavaria, the maidens formed themselves ihso a sort of sisterhoed. They pledged themselves to each other not to marry ur.til they were sure the King ha 1 passed them by. Each was to wear his likcuess constantly next her bosom, and •-a-h wa< to choose for herself a secret bower, where at eventide she should await his coming. A more foolish scheme prob ably never was devised by the silly brains of love-sick school girls. But more than a score of Bertoidshofen maidens entered into it with the zeal and devotion of nuns. The fame of this sisterhood spread to other villages, to towns and cities—nay. to Munich itself. Rustic wenches and the petted beauties of princelv jprinces alike caught the mad dis ease. \\ ithin a vear not less than 10,000 young women all through Bavaria had taken upon themselves the “vows of Lud wig.” and were waiting for their King. In time many of these girls imagined they had been seen and passed by by tne King, and. thus freed from their vows, accepted humbler husbands. Others grew tired of waiting and broke their vows. Still others waited and waited in vain until ail other suitors passed them by; and thev are wait ing still and will be waiting all their lives. But as the ranks of the • nginol sisterhood i were thinned new recruits were added, and the “brides of Ludwig" were still counted by thousands. It is estimated that there were no less than 7.000 of them at the time of his suicide. When the news of that tragedy became known they forthwith put on mourning and called themselves “the widows of Ludwig. - Many of them took solemn vows of hfe-kmg celibacy as a token of faithfulness to his memory. Among these latter, two of the most de voted were the young baronesses, of Mun ich. to whom we referred. They constantly wore the deepest mourning, secluded them selves from all social pleasures, and drove themselves into confirmed melancholy. Every week they went to S tarn berg and threw garlands of flowers into the water at the spot where the King was drowned. Finally they determined to share his fate. They arrayed themselves as brides, even to donning veils and orange blossoms, rowed out into the lake to the spot where he was drowned, and threw themselves into the water. Their bodies were found next day, clasped in each other’s arms, and with por traits of the mad King next their hearts. WII.LTAW A. Eddy was married the other day. Mr. Eddy, it should be said, is the tornado re gxjrter for the United States Signal Service, and is merely extending the sphere of his observa tions.— Boston Ibtmscript. AMUSEMENTS.
