The, Prince of Wales's country.houge is a pretty two-mile drive fromWol- verton, in'Norfolk, through a quantity young -plantations in which the Fainee •Clakes much interest. On the left you. pass a pictureesque building "The Folly," furnished with great taste, aad where shooting partiea knell Once or twice during .the season. The entrance to Sandringham ' is , through the famous. Norwich Gates, and so through ad.'fiae avenue of lirees.:. The house is a model of eomfart. The large bali which you enter On 'arriving is fitted up- as a diningroom,with a piano -- forte, easy chairs and two large writing tableS, at one of which the • Prince usually writes his letters on his return. , from Shooting. Behind the piano are a ,- quantity of toys for the ehildren to - amuse theniSelvea with at the "-child- reuls hone after teaa Here at 5 . Weida:the tea, ta,bie is placed in the - centre of the hall,and is presided over by the Princess in the loveliest of tea - gowns. It is a pretty sight to see her surrounded b:y her three littie girls, 1 who look like tiny fairies'and who run about to put " papa's " letters in the Iarge pillar -post box • on end of the hall.. There- are generally four or five lave -doffs to add to the circle.- In this same hall the balls take place. The . floor is excellent, and. the music is up- stairs in a gallery. -At the balls the supper is served. at a. number of round tables, with one long one down the side of the room. , At Christmas. the hall ldoks like - -a large bazaar, being then filled with the -most costly and beautiful_ tables, with alarae, Christmas -tree in the centree and o.bjects all around the side of the hall full of presents for tlae househ:old and visitors. Their Royal Hignesses arrange these presents all themselves,' and no oneis permitted to enter till the evening. Some few years back the . gentlemen of the household gave tae Prince. on his birthday . a handsome weighing machine, which has over since been honored with a conspicuous place': in the corridor passing alongside . the hall; and regularly- during each party, generally after -tea, the guests are requested to come and be weighed, proceedingto which some seriously oiiject. The Y then in their own hand.- ' writina have to record the full".details a book kept specially for the pu ose ; they write their names, date, eight and costume worn at the time. Thus you read.: .Heavy walking dress, tea - gown, velvet dress—the heavy ones generally attribute some of the fault at> the. garments. It is an interesting book, containing . as it lies- autographs of many long since passed away. • The drawing room is a particularly ,pretty room, full of furniture, and ,every available corner is filled with .aiaantic flower -glasses full of pampas • - • grass and evergreens.. Here the guests .assemble . before dinner. The dining - room opensout ofthis room. The ,dinuer-table decorations are noted, and. are ali arranged by the gardener; whose. taste is very good. The bowling -alley, in Close proximity to the billiard -room, F is most popular:. The Princess plays . very well, while those who have no - taste this way sit little ante- room, coinfortably furnished. with two . Io -ng, low settees and. rocking -chairs, 1 and from which -Yon command. a good ; view of the game. Out of the drawing - room, on the opposite side to the diningal room„ is a, small sitting -room fitted with bookcases. Beyond this i the Prince's own -room, quite full of beauti- ful things. Here he and the Princess always breakfast, and here on the 9th. Of November -and the 1st of December . are iadd out all the numerous birthday presents. Of the- Princess's private ap-artmeuts up stairs it will suffice to say that a prettier. room than her royal highness's own boudoir, or sittiag-room, was never seen.. All the visitors' rooms ; are perfect, nor are the servants' cora- forts neglected. Immediately after tea and coffee (when there is a party. staying in the house) the -Prince sits down- to his • whist in the small room leading out of ; the drawing -room, and. the Princess - adjourus to the bowling -alley, where two little hoYs, attired in 'appropriate !! costume, are in attendance. to -set back the heavy -balls and set up the bowls.— ; Lonttun Vanity Fair. Startling Experience in a Burial Vault. • • ! Not long ago thewidow of a gentle- ' man who had recently died, desired the • vault wherein. the body had been tena-! ° pprarily placed to, be watched, so that body -snatchers could have , no oppor, unity to ply their nefarious Thinking that - the .vault would le watchedby the sexton than any , one else, Ladoone was hired to keep &sharp Ioole-out: At dark he took a -. lantern and blanket and. made•up a bed in front of the vault, so that any one approaching it wouldhave to step over ,his body. But after lying there some time it grew quite. Cold, and he thought ,he could watch the corpse jut as -well :if he wcreinside the vault,..out of the cold. Si he unlocked. the vault and went in, hut found that he could not lock the vault from the inside. That would never do, andyet he was deter - Mined not to stay outside. _Fivally he went back to the house and roused his hired man, and the two went back to the vault. Mr. R. theu took his lantern and blanket and went inside, made a bed on the thio -r, andlaid. down for the 'night, having for corn- paniona to while away the tedious hours six corpses. The attendant locked the :door from the outside- and. went back to the house and his .warm bed, leaving the sexton alone in the vault with his ,SUOUt companions. There was nothing to disturb his tranquility during the early part of the night. Everything was quiet and still until about 1 o'clock, and then the 'e -was a geutle 110180,. as thou h seine WaS thallpering N.V4h thevault lock. 'Ma. 1.-t. took up his lantern, ancl the noise stopped for a few moments, only to be- 4.,fin again when ho laid down on bs Wankel. This time it appeared. to he in an opposite corner of the vault. He Could see nothing and could. only hear that steady scratch, scratch, which b - came more and • more distinct every i stant. Mr. R. is a brave man, but he :confesses that 'When locked; in a va t with six dead men, with no living soul -within half a mile, and at that • early •hour to have such an unexplainable noise as that7 it was more than men with ordinary nerves eau. stand. At any rate, his hair began to rise, and, just as he was thinking of the best way I foes, a little chip-munk clashed from dark corner, ran past him, and dare out between the bars in the vaul door. From that time on nothing oc ourred.to mar his quiet watch,,but i the morning he was rather glad to b released from his dull quarters.— Toted (Oltio) Blade. . A Negro Bishop in Westminster Abbey. ' A Touching Assertion of the Equality o All Men in God's Eyes. Among the most interesting, feature -of the recent gathering of the Bishop of the Anglican Communion in London was the presence of the Bishop of Hay an African born in the United States and consecrated in Grace 'Church, New York, in 1874. Bishop Jamea Theodor Holey (for such is his name), the pres eut Bishop of Hayti, is a man of excel lent gifts and of a genuinely missionary spirit. He received. an -.especially cor dial welcome on his appearance among the English and American bishops a Lambeth, and he won the respect and esteem of all who came to know him While in London Dean Stanley invited him to preach in Westminster Abbey on St. James's Day, and his sermon founded on the request of the mother o James that her two sons might sit re spectively at the right and left hand of Christ in .his kingdom, ended with the following noble` and touching pray er: " And now on the shores of olcl Eng- land, the cradle of that Anglo-Saxon Christianity by which I have been in part at least illuminated, standing be- neath the vaulted roof of this monu- mental pile, redolent with the •piety of bygone generations during ado many ages, in the presence of the ' "Storied urn and animated bust" that hold the sacred ashes and com- ,memorate the buried • grandeur of so many illustrious personages, I catch a cfresh inspiration and lie* impulse of --the Divinc-Missionary spirit of our -com- mon Christianity; and here in the presence of God, of angels and of men, on this day sacred to the memory -of an apostle whose blessed name was • called over me at my,baptism, and as lift up my voice for the first and perhaps only time in any of England's sainted shrines, I dedicate myself anew to the work of God,of the Gospel of Christ, and of the salvation of my fellow men, in the far - distant isle of the Cariabboan Sea, that has become the chosen field of my Gos- pel labors. "0 thou Saviour Christ, son Of the living God, who when Thou wast spurn- ed by the Tewsief the race of Shem, and and who, when delivered -cm without cause by the Romans of the race of •Japheth, on the day of Thy ignominious crucifixion, hadst Thy ponderous cross borne to Golgotha's summit on the sal- -vgart shoulders of Simon the C3rreniaii, of the race of Ham, I pray thee, 0 precious Saviour, remember that for- lorn, despised and rejected race, whose son thus bore thy cross, when Thou shalt come in. the power and majesty of Thy eternal kingdom to distribute Thy crowns of everlasting glory! - "And. give to me, then, not a place at Thy right hand. or at Thy left, but only the place of a gatekeeper at the entrance of the holy eitye the new _ Jerusalem, that I may behold my rer deemed brethren, the saved of the Lord, entering therein to be partakers with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob of tall the joys of Thy glorious and everlasting kingdom." Smelt Fishthg in Main.e. An Interesting Winter Sport. On the coast of Maine smelt visit the rivers about the 20th of December and remain almost all winter. For about two months they take the hook readil y, and are caught in, conalderable num- bers through holes cut in the ice. For- merly, on cold days, it was very severe ' fishing, without shelter, ex- cept by piling up cakes of ice, evergreen boughs, etc. Last winter one of the fishermen made a canvas tent, and it proved so comfortable that it has now become the universal custom to fish in them.' There are now • on the ice, above the bridges, two villages of these canvas houses, much resembling an Tndian encaniPment in winter quer, ters. A light wooden frame, with a sharproof, is put together and. the a surface and tries his lack there. Those d from the city pass the entire day upon t the ice, taking tLeir dinners along, - which are eaten in the tent, the tea or n coffee being warmed upon the stove. e Tents are added daily, and before the o season closes ther3 will be fifty or more upon the ice.—Belfast (Me.) Jour- nal. How a Juuge Solvdd a Nice Questio of Law. s A c rrespondent tells a story about judg Kent that is nteresting. A case of b rglary was being tried before him. The pilsouer s name was Cow- - dry, a d the nvide ce showed that he had c t a hcle thr ugh„ a rubber tent in wh ch several pe sons were sleeping, e large nough to a mit his arm and - head, and ha& abst acted severalarti- - des o value. His counsel took the groun that the pri oner, having only - reachrd into the to t, had not "enter- ed" it, and that onat is technicality the 4 defeu ant should b discharged. ' In s charge to t e jury, Judge Kent, • with grim smile, lluded to the plea of the prisoner's cou sel, and instructed them hat, if they ere in doubt as to ; the gu it of the who e man, they might bring Am in guilty s farads they judged the vidence fla-i lit warrant, and the j y, after a bri f period of consul- tation brought in a verdict against Thom Cowdry, t e prisoner at the bar, o guilty to th full letter of the indict ent as to his right arm, his right shoulc er, and. his head. The • judge • sentenced the right rm, the shoulder, and the head of said Thomas Cowdry to m imprisonent at hard labor in State prison for the term of two years.

Iu some instances th.e covering , is p ainted,th e better to resist the piercing ,northwest winds. The ordinary tent is about six feet square; occasionally one .is larger, for two persons: The interior is provided.with a stove and a, bench, upon Which the angler sits while .fish- ing. The whole rests upon runners, and cau easily be moved. from place, to. place. • When the fisherman reaches the grounds he cuts a -hole through the ice, places his. tent over the -same, builds on fire, closes the door,- drops his- line through the hole and waits for a. bite. Each 1118,11 uses four lines. They have two kinds of fish gear—the file sinker and the triangle. The former is ,for tent fishing .and the latter for out of door fishing. The file sinker is made of lead, about the size and shape of an ordinary three cornered file. 1A com- mon mackerel is made fast to one end of the sinker, while from the other depends a ellen of colored lincasix inches in length, to which a -hook is attached. The advantage of the file sinker is that the tide causes it • to cut and shear about, thus keeping the bait in motion. The triangle gear is made of wire, the line fastened at the -centre, while two hooks depend, one .from -either end of the wire, which -is bent into a triangle. , The bait used. in this " vicinity is the clam worm, which is found in .the clam Bata. Tho upper eucl of the' line is fastened to a rack abovethefish_erman's head, while the hook is from. six to ten feet below the surface. • The fisherman sits on. his bench beside the stove and patiently waits for the fish to bite. There is not much skill ir this kind of angling, for when a smelt takes the hook, the motion of the line conveys the fact to the fisherman, and he quick- ly hauls him ink, The fish bite better on cold, stormy days, the recent heavy storm being the best day of_ the season thus far. From ten to fifteen pounds are a fair day's work for one man. They sell in the Belfast market for five cents per pouud.. The wages Made are not large, but the fish are caught at a time when there is but little else for the fishermen to do. The tents are comfortable and home -like, the men are jolly, singing and shouting from one to another. Wishing to change :his po- sition, the angler haule hi Ei lines, moves his .tent to another portion of the to defend himself against_ his spiritual ice-field,'cuts a hole through the frpzan Not Generally Known.
