consisted of 2 smoked ham, 7 sandwiches,
1 can of corned beef, half lb !cheese, 3 bis -

were over they proceisded i ., 'boat to the '
angling grounds, but had to ptiteepat Dyer's
crossing to bring to light eld reminiscences ..
and cousidering the welfare of their wives
and families at home. The dukes ambi- e
tion was quite conspicuous over his oae e
year 'old son at home, who lid expected to '
make a grand move in favor of unrestricted '
reciprocity and commercial unioa before lie
reached the age of 95. Bismarck figured
estensively on the margin of cow grease'
and hen fruit in the Liverpool market. - He

proceeded to light fire mid partake of the
refreshtnents. 13istuarok being more)i s t
eater than his royal companions, did away
with 15 yards of bologna and a sinellof the
litue juice. The duke and count finished
off with 1 biscalt, 2 ginger snaps and a
thimble full of J. B. bitters each. After
putting the edibles out of therein:h of mud -
turtles and bull frogs, the fishing oarsmen -
cd. Nothing of importance was caught
the first day, • the duke getting only one
bito, which almost jerked him out of the
boat ; and when ha pulled in his hook all
that Was visible was. an enormous pike
about 81 inches long, which turned the
scales at something less than 2 ovrt: 1i ,oz.
The first nightrest was broken b,y Dis-
ma.e'i.'s and Moltke's loud dreaming, the
latter continually asking the duke if he
had a bite. The duke dreamed that he had
drank too freely of J. B. bitters, and was
awakened by a big mud i turtle lying beside
hitu, siugtug, "I like to be where my love
lies dreaming," he seized the tent pole and
struck her inch a blow as to knock her into
the middle of the river. He wesso elevated
over his pugilistio feat that he atatted t i
sing "The girl .1 left behind me" and the
turtle responded by singing "Life on the
00e0n wave, A home oti the briuy deep."
The parte was, broken up the second day -
by an ambassador from the
House, of Commons, saying that tho
duke:vos wanted et home, and ediert he
