What could Shakespeare mean by saying that "home -keeping yontlis have ever home- ly wit?" The greatest poet this island has produced was himself undoubtedly a home - keeper. There is no reason to,believe that he ever crossed theses, and on the "sweet soil" that produced hizn he found food enough and space enough for his amazing genius. lie was born at Stratford, lived for years in London, and died at his birthplace; and there is, we believe, no record of his going elsewhere. Spenser crossed the sea to Ire- land, but was, otherwise, sosecely more of a traveller than Shakespeare • and no one will credit the great author Of "The Faerie Queene" with homely wit. Neither Cowley aor Bacon ever wandered further than France, and it was not until the philosopher was forced to remain quietly at home that he wrote the worka to which he owes his fame. It would have been greatly more to Ben Jonson's credit if he had not acceptea the post of travelling tutor to Sir Walter. Ralugh's son. The young man, discovering "rare Ben's" weakness, is said to heve made him dead. drunk, and, when in this condition, to have caused him to be drawn on a car through the streets of Paris for the amusement of the bystanders. r suspect that, had he been in England, the wicked young wag would not have dreamt of such a misdemeanor. Bunyan, we all know, never went further from Bed. ford than London, and wrote his wonderful allegory in a prison. Defoe, although he travelled far from home in hie books did not go beyond Scotland in the flesh. Bad it been his misfortune to undergo the painful ad.venturea of " Robb:teen Crusoe," the world would never have had that delightful story. Defoe's contemporaries, Swift and Pope, the Iwo wittiest men of the age, and men of the keenest intellects, did not find it necessary to travel in search of idees, Pope's longest journey was to Bath ; and Syria's life as a traveller was spent between Dublin and London. Congreve, although he was at one time Secretary to, the Island of jamaioa, never left England, and felt painfully ertough the disadvantage even of home - travel; for he died in consequence of being upset in hie coach when On the way to Bath, the eviaherlefor bourne itt that age of every Thomson, tom met his death by going abroad ; fen he caught a fatal cold upon the Mlaamet4.

I/011%S OF ROYALTY. vartotis Countries Illiere Royalty Pre• rails. , Once more Queen Victoria has been call- ed upon to mourn the loss of one of her old- est and moat oherished friend. Mrs. Pratt who recently died at TS, was the widow of Canon Pratt of Peterborough, and daughter of Pr Devys, Bishop of that diocese, Yams the Queen was Princess Vieteria Dr. Dents watt one of her pea:meters, and a 0,14se friend- ship, vvhIch soon ripened into affeotion, sprang up between the august pupil and the eldest daughter of her *tor, When the youtig Princess aeoended the thnne Mr. Pratt was appointed an extra, woman of the bedchamber end lived mostly at the palace acting in no less an important capacity than that of royal private secretary. When her father was appointed to the :see of Peterbor. ough, her 1VIajesty dispensed with Mrs, Pratt's continual residence ab court, but nevertheless he retained her office: and drew its emoluments down to the close of her long and useful life. A frequent and hon. ored visitor at Windsor, it constant cones. pendent when absent, Mrs. Pratt had un. mutt' opportunities'for; kno ging all that went on in the private royal circle, and It was to her that Charlotte Yonge was indebted for many of the facts published in her ad. mirable "Life of Quee 3 Victoria." The Prince of Wales 18 as a rule, one of the best dressed men in England, but he is this summer criticised, for wearing at the races a dreadful snuff -colored suit and low hat. flis term is too portly and his back too broad for such freaks. Ex.Queen Isabella of Spain is in London, Her inveterate tendency to intrigue and poli- tical mischief -making is such that, in the in. terest of the country surlier the sake of peace, it is found impossible, or at least highly inexpedient, to permit her residence in Spain. The portly mother of Alfonso XII. is, there- fore, a wanderer on the face of the earth and a dweller in strange cities. Paris is her headquarters, but she occasionaly favors some part of Germany with her preaenoe,. and sometimes descends upon other portions of Europe. She has seldom honored London, and, as it novelty, she is raueh sought after. The Queen of Italy on recent 00058i0I18 re- ceived guests seated in the chair of state just under a picture of her husband, the King. She was dressed in it severe robe of black velvet, which showed off her magnificent pearl necklace to the greatest advantage. She gave to each lady a copy of a work on philanthropic objects of the Red Cross, translated from the German, and with a special dedication by herself. The work was sent to the Queen of Italy by the Empress of Germany. When the Princess of Wales opened the Royal Naval and Military Bazaar she was drested in navy blue silk, with three bands of scarlet on the bodice, and some touches of red visible upon the skirt. The young princesses, Victoria and Maud, simply dress. ed in brown tailor-made costumes, were with their mother. On the recent seventieth birthday of the Meg of Denmark his daughter-in-law, the Princess Waldemar, presented to him a piece of embroidery made by herself representing in heraldic fashion the coats of arms of the imperial and royal farnilies of Russia, Eng- land, Hanover, and Orleans, who have be- come united to that of his Majesty. At a party in Berlin Prof. Curtius, an in- timate friend of the Emperor, related a story which had been *Id him once by his august patron, illustrating the charaoter of Queen Victoria. The Emperor, then King of Prussia, but an exile in England, had witnessed the tremendous enthusiaam displayed by all London in front of Buckingham Palace after the well-known attempt on her Majesty's life, when she was slightly wounded, and was present the same night in the Queen's box at her Majesty's Theatre when the ovation of the audience on seeing her Majesty enter knew no bounds. Struck by his own anomalous position— an exile at the hands of his own subjects, and his kingdom on the point of destruction—the King could not restrain Ms tears; hut the Queen, seetng his great emotion, seized hishand, and with true womanly instinct divining its cause, said in an affectionate and sympathetievoice : "Your Majesty will live to experience a :si- milar demonstration toward yourself from your own subjects." Prophetic words, whieb the Emperor never forgot. The King of Sweden was, on last birthday, the recipient of a pretty little letter from a swedishgirl 6 years ot age, who, beginning her epistle "Dear King," informed him thetas his birth- day coincided with her own she had written in order to congratulate him particularly as she "loved her dear King so very much," He wrote back: "I thank the little Mies S.A. 6 years of age, for her letter of congratulation on my birthday, which is also hers. May she become a good woman, and thus afford plea- sure to her King, Oscar," The letter was accompanied by a handsome gold bangle. King Humbert, of Italy, has given up elanoing, and. at all the palace and State balls bis son takes his father's place as partner of the lady whem the king delight- eth to honor. The Pritme of Naples is a good dancer, but exercises free choice, liking a pretty mate as well as most young men, although as heir -apparent he has to attend to his duty dances first, and his pleasure ones afterward. There is speculation as to whom this young Prince will marry. He is a prize for any one of the fair daughters of reigning sovereigns. The King of Sweden, during his late visit to Rome, startled the Pope by kissing him on both cheeks. He only once made use of the carriage placed at his disposal by King Humbert, preferring to drive about in a simple landau, without any state. The King visited one of the popular 'eateries, wishing to study the ways of the populace, and made himeelf sociable with all present. So little was his identity suspected that he was treated entirely as one of the company, and the national sattarelle wag danced. King Oscar drank with every one who ask. ed him and after he had accepted wine all around paid his turn twice.

He said :— I was set to read the Bible for an laour be. fore service. I had also a lesson to get up for the eohool, sometimes it chapter in the ew Testament, sometimes it section of this Westminster Assembly's Catechism, and sometimes both. I cannot say how many times I went through the Bible, little ap- preciating its power or its poetry, but I had read it eight nmes before .1 was ten years old. The scho'cl was held in the intermits. sion between the Morning and afternoon services, and the recital of the leasons, with the comments and exhortations of teachers, occupied an hour. Then we hurried home for a lunch, either bread and milk or bread and butter, with it section of apple pie and some preserves of fruit, if we had been din. gent and good. The after ger vicebegan at two o'clock. A meel, that you call dinner if you choose—though the meals were cold—was sserved between five and six. At seven we went to prayer. So that the bell in our slender, white, wooden steeple was ringing most of the day for some meeting.

Did you ever hear of a man's life being saved by it pack of cards? Well, here is an incident that is vouched for by many who /35W the occurrence. One of the best known and most popular drummers who comes here, and he comes often, was one of a merry party who were engaged one night in a friendly game of "draw," which drummers sometimes play. After conclueling the game our friend placed the cards in the left hand pocket of his coat, which brought them di- rectly over his heart. Soon thereafter one of the party, while carelessly handling a pistol, discharged it; and now comes th strangest part of the story.

I suppose the bare mention of the .frord "Manitoba" inEurope or the States, immedi- ately suggests the word "blizzard." If a town in Dakota or Illinois is whisked away, the devouring monster rushed down from Manitoba, where it was born and bred 1 This sad land is the cradle of the entire merciless brood of hurricanes, cyclones, tore, e. nadoea, hazards and water -spouts! The" only big commotion we don't or inate is the earthquake! In fact the " qua e is here too. All right enough: but the crust is frozen so solid that it can't be cracked; in which case what can the "quake" aforesaid do but make a subterranean dash for Charle- ston or Italy, and there shout out? Yes, this is the very headquarters of all the at- , rnospherical outburste which periodically shake the continent. I A taller lie never grew. Our Northwest knows nothing of blizzards or cyclones. In , five years.[ have not seen one. What are commonly called blizzards here, are simply fierce snow storms. They differ from an Ottawa storm chiefly in being built of stronger winds zed less snow. I ought to recognize Mr. Blizzard at sight -1 was once introduced to him awsty down in Nebraska. I have not yet met him here. Why, in it genuine bhz- zard, eyes, ears, and all the senses are simply useless. Get out twenty yards from your house and it becomes a "toss up" whether you come back alive. You might as well be stone blind. The central characteristic of the true blizzard is this—the furious blade seem to come from all ssides, yes, above and below too at once. Heaven and earth churn together in one chaotic epitome of all the confusions. Caught in the snotey maelstrom, a man knows where he is and what is the matter with him, just about as much as does it grain of wheat among the cogs of a thresher. --Ottawa .Tournal.
