The Death of the Kx-ltueen or ttpalu.
The Italian correspondent of the Phila
delphia Bulletin sends the following Inter
esting letter with regard to tho death of
the Duchess of Aosta, ex-Queen of Spain.
Kings and princes are State machines,
not human beings; thoyfriust net hava tho
emotions and feelings that mako tho hu
man heart throb. Ono day thft Princess
Marguerite was talking with her court
ladiea about a popular novel which they
had all beon reading. The lovo story in
tho romance was commented upon; some
said It was natural, others thought it very
unnatural. The Princess was appealed
to.
"Ah!" replied Marguerite of Savoy,
with a pretty laugh and a fine expression,
“tlhave no experience. You know persons
situated as I am can never know what
love means."
To that charming royal lady's credit,
be it said, that gossip, so free to fabricate
when there Is no naughty truth to tell,
has never once accused tho Princess Mar
guerite of flirting, of lightnesr. of conduct,
or coquetterlo. She is a model woman in
that respect. She Is as gu y and naive as a
child; unassuming, full of the finest tact,
knows by the Instinct howto troat all per
sons and all conditions of society ;ls amia
ble, sweet tempered, accessible, but has
her own especial kind of dtgnity. It would
be Impossible, lam told by those who see
a great deal of her, to take the slightest
liberty with her, notwithstanding all her
froedom of manner. And as for love, she
has no silly, Idle follies; if she does not
love her husband—and truly he does little
go win her love—she Is, at least, a true,
Loyal wife, and he is not a loyal, or even
Attentive husband; Indeed Prince Hum
liert’s light-o’-love affairs are common
allc. The Princess Marguerite, as I said
| hove, has her own sort of dignity and
fpirit, but she Is most wifely in her ac
ikaowledgemont of any little rare courte
sy from her husband. Last spring I saw
her riding beside her husband on the box
of the carriage, and ho was driving. It
was a rare sight, for they were seldom
seen together. She looked brilliant with
happiness; her sweet face had a smile
that was lovelier, if possible, than its
usual one, and a parson who is a great
deal about the court said: "Now her Roy
al Highness is pleased; there will be noth
ing but sunshino for a week to come. It
does make her so happy when the Prince
pays her a little attention.”
As I have already said, Prince Amadeo
learned to love bis wife, and mourns her
os deeply as if he were the humblest of
his father's subjects. Tho last night of
her life he knelt beside her bed and pray
ed wept bitterly while she was dying.
“Ahimequanto t pena a morire!" (Ah,
me 1 how much one has to suffer to die!
the young Duchess exclaimed during that
night of agony. And the poor woman had
suffered, indeed. Three long weary years
of wretched suffering, and then that Anal
struggle. At last she fell asleep on her
husband's shoulder and was at rest. But
It was very hard for her to have to give
up her brilliant life, that was blessed with
every perfect gift.
Prince Amadeo has bought ail the 'fur
niture of the rooms occupied by the Duch
ess In tho villa at St. Remo, where she
died. He will have It placed In a suite of
rooms at the Palazzo Oisterna, at Turin,
and the bed-room will be arranged in
every detail as the one In which the poor
moaned out her touching
complaint against the struggle her young
body made to hold on to life.
Kye-stlßht
Milton's blindness was tlie result of
overwork and dyspepsia.
One of the most eminent American
divines having for seme time, been com
pelled to forego the pleasure of reading,
spent thousands of dollars in value, and
lost yeara of time in consequence of get
ting up several hours before day, and
studying by artificial light. His eyes,
never got well.
Multitudes of men and woman have
made their eyes week for life by the too
free use of the eye-sight, reading small
print, and doing find sewing. In view of
these things, it is well to observe the fol
lowing rules in the use of the eyes:
Avoid all sodden changes between light
and darkness.
Never begin to read or write or sew for
several minutes after coming from dark
ness to a bright light.
Never read by twilight or moonlight
or of a very cloudy day.
Never read or sew directly in front of
the light, or window, or door.
It is best to have the light fall from
above obliquely over the left shoulder.
Never sleep so that on first waking the
eyes shall open on the light of a window.
Do not use the eye sight by light so
scant that it requires an effort to discri
minate.
Too much light creates a glare, and
pains and confuses the sight. The moment
you are sensible of an effort to distinguish
that moment cease and take a ride or
walk.
As the sky is blue and the earth is green
it would seem that the ceiling should be
bluish tinge, and the carpet green, and
the walla of some mellow tint.
The moment you are prompted to rub
the eyes, that moment cease using them.

Brswnlow on Cremation.
Knoxville Chronicle.]
In Pennsylvania they have a big fur
nace for cremating or burning dead bodies.
It is done skilfully, and in a very brief
time a full grown body is reduced to
about a half gallon of ashes. We nomi
nate the corpse ol the dead Democracy
for cremation. It is true its soul will be
burned or cremated in the next world,
but as a sanitary measure iet the corpse
be burned now. The hell deserving old
party is so rotten and corrupt that if it
were buried 100 feet under ground it
would still stink and breed pestilence.

The following ie an extract from a description, published in the New York Tribune., by the wel
known agriculturist, Solon Robinson:
All the farmers were of the "well to do” sort, and some of them, who have turned their attention
to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. Tho soil is loam, varying from sandy to clayey,
and surface gently undulutiug, intersected with small streams and occasional wet meadows, In
which deposits of peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilise the whole upland surface, after it
haß been exhausted of its natural fertility*
It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable
condition for pleasant farming, that we know of this sido of the Western prairies. We found some
of the oldest farms apparently Just ae profitably productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a
hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. The whole country is a
marine deposit, and all through the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances, generally in
the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertia
ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted
form, and in the exact condition most easily assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to
cultivate.
