The lady and gentleman who were to attend the august visitants had bat feeble ideas of the reception to be expected. It was supposed that t.ie Quaker would at least say thy ma- jesty, or thy highness, or madam. Tae royal carriage arrived at the lodge of the park, punctual at the appointed hour. iNo preparations appeared to have been made. no t.oatess nor aomestics stocd ready to greet the gue:;ts. The porter's bell was rung he stepped forth deliberately with his broad-brjmnied h. ;iv, i ,,a an.l uubendioc^ly accosted the lord in waiting with, " Whats thy will, friend " Tnis was almost unan- swerable.

"No., truly," answered theman, '-itneed- eth not I have lio mistress nor l-if'.y, but friend Rachel Mdlu cxoecteth thine; walk in." The Queen and princess were handed out and walked up the avenue. At the door of the house steed the p'ainly attired Rachel who without ever, a courtesy, but with a cheerful nod, .said " How's tnee do, friend 1 am glad to .^ee thee and thy daughter I wish thee well Rist a-i.d re- fresn thee and thy people before I show thee mv grounds." \\ nat could be said to sush a person Some oondesceniions were attempted, im- plying that her majesty came not only to view the park, but to testify her esteem' for the society to which Mistress Mills belong- ed. Cool and unawed, she answered, " Yes thou are right there the Friends are well thought of by most folk, but they need not the praise of the world for the rest, many strangers gratify their curiosity by going over th'.s place, and it is my custom to con- duct them myself therefore I shall do the like to thee, friend Charlotte moreover, I think well of thee as a dutiful wife and mother. 'J'hou hast had thy trials, and so had thy good partner. I wish thy grand- child well through hera " â€" she alluded to the Princess Charlotte. It was so very evident that the Friend meant kindly, nay, respectfully, that offence could noc be taken. She escorted her guest through her estate. The Princess Elizabeth noticed in her hen-house a bree of poultry hitherto unkcown to her, and expressed a wish to possess some of those rare fcwls, imagining that Mrs. Mills would regard her wish as a law but the Quakeress n.erely remarked, with characteristic evasion, " 'I'hoy are rare, as then sayest bat if any are to be purchased, in this land or in other countries, I know few women likelier than thyself to procure them with ease." Her royal highness more plainly expressed a desire to purchase some of those she now beheld. " I do not buy and sell," answered Rachel Mills. " Perhaps you will give me a pair " answered the princess, with a con- ciliating smile. "Nay, verily," replied Rachel, " I have refused many friends and that which I denied to mine own kinswo man, .Martha Ash, it becometh me not to grant to any.

The following dispatch from Montreal to the St. Louis Olobe- Democrat has a local flavor from the fact that Lskdy Rose is an aunt of Mrs. C. F. Livarmore, of this city The announcement of the death in London of Lady Rose, wife of Sir John Eose, of London, and formerly of Montreal, brings to mind some romantic incidents of her early life. Lady Rose was a daughter of Robert Emmet Temple, of Rutland, Vt., who held the position of Pension Agent of the United States Governmen!: for the revolutionary war. He was a gentleman of distinguished appearance and elegant matnirs, and bad br-jught up his daughters in all the courtly graces a-cd accomplishments whica marked the hicher classes at the beginning of this century. The younger ladies paid a 'isit to Montreal, and the younger married a Mon- treal gentleman (Mr. Robert Sweeney), a Protestant Irishman, who at that time held the position of Inspector of Potashes and was a partner of Col. Dyde. Her sister married Mr. Chapman. The Sweeneys moved much in military circles, and Mrs. S ;veeney, from her fascinating manner and savoir faire, be- came a general favorite. An unfortunate affair took place which caused muc'n comment in fashionable circles in those ear'y days. Maj. Ward, of tbe First Iloyala, was an intimate friend and companion of }*Ir. Sweeney, and one after- noon the two friends strolled ijp town to- gether. That. evening Mr, Sweeney had friends to dmner, and during tbe repast a note was brought into Mrs. Siveenej' which she immediately handed to her husband. He jumped from the table and proceeded to the mess rooms of the First Royals. Maj. Ward, hearing Mr. Sweeney's voice, called out to him to come in and have a glass of wine. Tnis was sternly refused, and on the Major making his appearance ^Ir. Sweeney handed him the note with the demand, "Did you write this, sir?" Maj. Ward took the missive, and after glancing at it contemptuously, tore it into fragments. Hot words ensued, and a challenge was given and accepted. THE DCF.L. About sunrise next morning the two friends, who had left Col. Dyde in a very friendly mood the night before, stood con- fronting each other with pistols at the St. Pierre race course on the Lachine road. The word was given and Mr. Sweeney, who was an accomplished duellist, having had several affairs before, shot his antagonist through the heart before the latter had time to ex ploJe his v.'eapon. He and his wife retired to the S bates until at the request of the ctiisers of Major Ward's regiment a nolle prosequi was entered and he was allowed to return and find that the letter was the heed- less practical joke of a flighty girl who had imitated Major Ward's handwriting. The circumstance so preyed on Mr, Sweeney's mind that he died literally broken-hearted. A short time afterward his young widow, with her son, went to board at a house on Victoria Square, and there she met James Rose, a youth from Huntington, who was studying law in the ofiice of Judge Day. A mutual attachment between the fascinating and accomplished widow and the talented young law student ensued, and shortly after his admission to the bar they were married. Her wonderful tact and suavity of manner made her a leader in society, where she wa'j ever on the alert to advance her husband's interests. As Lady Beaconsfield was to her husband so Lady Rose was the mainspring of Sir John Rose's success, and her diplo- macy and ambition spurred her husband on to higher aims, which made him one of the foremost Canadians cf his time. Sir John entered political life early and advanced ra- pidly, working in connection with Sir John A. Macdonald. He was at one time the Minister of Finance, which position he re- tired to enter the firm of Morton, Rose Co,, bankers of London and New York. Felt the Situation. A G erman farmer was on trial in one of the justice courts the other day for assault and battery, and had pleaded not guilty.

Diinklns and Health. At a recent meeting ot the Toronto Uni- versity Temperance League, Dr. Gaikie, Dean of the Faculty of Trmity Medicil Col- lege, made a very practical speech in re- gard to the effect of even moderate drinking on the health. Coming from a gentleman of his high reputation and standing as a medi- cal man his views ought to have much weight. The following is a brief summary of the most important of the doctor's remarks on this important subject â€" He warned them against the tendency ex- isting among certain abstainers of being rather Pharisaical. Ha had been asked to oay a few words from a doctor's standpoint. Drinking in moderation was useless, he said so rs a medical man. (.Applause). Why was it nseleas What use was it That seemed a curious answer to such a question. He had visited the gymmvsium, am watch- ed with interest the proceedings. Did they think they would have big arms through drinking liquor Never. Ncr wo;;ld they have FI.VK EKAIXS OR l.JOn SToMkCil-^ by it. The Jess they drank the ijetter would their muscles be, the clearer their heads, the better their stomachs, the longer their lives. (Applause). He was not afraid to maintain that position against anybody. Does not this prove at cnoe that the drink- ing of liquor is not on^ tiselo,;s, but most hurtful. .Drinking was useless if they want- ed to be fine specimens of physique, because they had demonstrations every day that the very finest specimens of health and strength were total abstainers. Go down stairs and look at his horse â€" (laughter) â€" they would see his glosey coat and fat body. He had an excellent tamper, a disposition that could not be surpassed, and he, (Dr. Geikie) had never known him to have a headache. That horse was a total abstainer, (Renewed laughter). M^n diP^crei only from the animal that he possessed an,intellect, the finer powers then all the greater need from abstaining from the abuse of those powers. (Applause). Drinking is not only useless, but most injurious and dangeroue. He had seen over and over aga-^ 'n his pro- fessional career men fall into a state cf un" consciousness, and never wake in this life} That was no fancy figure. In the excite- ment of the moment, under the influence cf drink, the blood ves,'5el3 (,f the brain might enlarge, and a man die. It might be said that a great many medicil men still tamper- ed with drink that was the strongest .ar- gument cf his contention that it was d^.nger- ous. There wa-i .-i fascjnaticn about it. It go: uc!i a hold ou men that with all their kindness o" Jicart, their love of home and children, ti.e der.icn drink surpassed all. The sicmnch is injured very much by al- coholic drir.iiK, 'ongettcd to the verge 01 iniiiiiinaticD, ar.d this coi./iition produced uoi ocj.isionally. l^ut lrcjnfiitly, aud kept up by r.i.'.ny men all but constantly, means S')i)ner or later, simply its great injury aud idtiatate dt'structiou. Every day dribkers give proof of the truth of this. See the state of a drinker's stomach after a protracted fp.'eo, and sometimes even after a short one, and the destracticn of dige3tl\e power in invetorat topers. .\nd the liver, who l;ai not heard of the gin drinker, hob-nailed, lion.

E ery healthy person is healthier, vv-iser, s-.fer, and better in every way, and even so nunih happier without drink than with it WHO 18 UNACQUAINTED WITH THiE KEOCRAPHY OF THIS COUNTRY, V/ILL SEB BY EXAMINI.^G THIS MAP, THAT THE CHIGACO, HOCSC ISLAi^D PACIFIC R'Y, Botns the Great Central Lino, affords to travelers, by reason of its iir.rivaied geo- graphical position, the shortest and best route between the East, Kiortheast and Southeast, and the West, Northwest and Southwest.
