NO BURNING OF CANDLES AT HOTS ENDS
at Government House as in the Dufferin's '
time. At their entertainments the Mar-
quis and Marchioness do things magnificent-
ly, but close economy is the every -day rule.
Lord Dufferin not only spent his £10,000 a
year, but dipped his estates and sold the
timber on them whenhe could gain political
points by a judicious wse of money. My
visitor assured me that " Lorne and the
Princess Louise did not salt away a dollar"
when they were in Canada. The Princess
was as beneficent as could be, and never
was appealed to for money without (when
she was satisfied that she had to deal with
honest people) putting here hand in her
pocket or signing a check. She was a gnat
success until the sleigh accident betel her.
Her nervous system then got upset, with
the effect that, in speaking she was a t to
make use of words just the contrary of those
she wanted to say. She, therefore unposed
on herself the rule of silence with those
whom she did not well know. This passed
for sullen reserve and favoritism, and
caused a good deal of
RESENTMENT AMONG TAE LADIES.
"Lorne was just as good as he could be
and first-rate in •business," said my visitor
"but he was unendurable."
" How so ?" I asked,
"He was so stand-off in his demeanor.
Dufferin knew the Christian and pet•names
of all the children in Ottawa, lead of the
births in the papers, and remembered to
congratulate their fathers of the new-born
babes. He shook hands publicaily with a
grocer's wife who had triplets, and one day
got out of his carriage to go and admire
them when they were with their mother and
the servants in the street. If a newsboy
said a smart thing to him he'd stop to talk
to him, and I often saw him shake hands
with a conductor of the, s retncd rshe who
came from his part of bels
always something bright ane pleasant to
say.
Lone E'S STAND -OFFISHNESS
after Dufferin's chaff and heartiness was
like an icy blast in the month of May."
The Princess Louise enjoyed best in Canada
the society of the French. She was very,,j,,
fond of getting away from Ottawa and
going to live en artiste at the citadel of
Quebec -an old place that dated from the
Marquis de Montcalm. It became the
thing there to be artistic. Officers, the sons
and daughters of judges and of ministers
(preachers), successful tra s -people, and
so on, went in for sketc 'n impressionism,
art furniture and art union , to be bien en
cour. The Princess used to' go out on skat-
ing expeditions in a boat. She had some
narrow escapes near rapids ; that however,
was not at Quebec, but high up the river.
It used to be said of her that she was all
radiance to the French-Canadians, and had
more French than English books on her
drawing room table. But Lady Sophia Mae-
namara understood the " independent
temper of the Anglo -Scotch Provinces, and
helped to make things smooth and agree-
