QUEEN V1CJ Her Long ?eign of En? y en' J "/ London, Jan. 22.?The Queen of K -gland ami Empress of India, after a short illness, passed away painlessly at Osbornc, Isle of Wight, at U:10p. in. She died like one falling asleep. She was surrounded by the royal family, Emperor William of Germany, j and members of the cabinet. LIFE AND CAKKKK '11' I'KAO Ql.'KKN. The childhood of Victoria.was much more simple and unrestricted than would have been the ease had it been known that she would become the Queen of England. She was born in Kensington Palace on May 24, 1811?, aud she lived there the greater part of the time until the death of William IV, made her queen. She was a happy little child, and ! her amusements were much the same as those of other English girls. No little girl ever loved dolls moie dearly than did Victoria. She liked best those which came from Holland, aud when she became old enough to manage needle, thread and thimble she made with her own fingers dresses, coats and hats for her children, as she called them. She had doll-houses and doll furni ture. Some visitor at Kensington gave her a picture hook showing the na tive costumes of many different races, and it was one of her chief pleasures to dress her dolls as nearly as she could like the strange people pictured in the book. Victoria was deprived of [a father's care in her infancy. Tbo Duke of Kent contracted a cold, which devel oped into pneumonia, while carrying the baby Victoria around Kensington. Her mother, the Duchess of Kent, practically devoted her life to the rearing of tho little girl. In the Ken sington household method, system and punctuality in all things ruled. One day of the little princess' life was much like another. She rose early, breakfasted simply at 8 a. m. in the morning room of the palace, sitting beside her mother in a little rosewood chair, a table to match in front of her, on which were placed her bread and milk and fruit. After breakfast she mounted her donkey and rode around Kensington Gardens accompanied by her nurse. From ID to 12 o'clock sho received in struction from her mother, assisted by Fraulcin Lehzen. Then she romped through the palace with her nurse, Mrs. Brock, whom she affectionately called "dear Boppy." At 2 p. m. she lunched with her mother, then there were lessons until 4 p. in. At that hour she went driving with the duchess. Seven o'clock was tho dinner hour. The duchess dined sumptuously, but the little princess had only bread and milk. Sometimes she was permitted to have small portions of the dessert served at the large table, but those were rare ovents. As she grew older more time was given to study and less to play. Her governess were selected with great caro. Her playfellows were limited in number. She had barely passed out of the hands of governess and had figured but little in the fashionable life of the court when she became Queen. SHE ItECOMES QUEKN. Victoria was awakened out of a deep sleep ut f> o'clock in the morning of June 20, 1SI7, to learn that she was Queen of England. She received the news clad in her nightgown, her bare feet in sleepers and her hair falling loosely over her shoulders. On that eventful morning she was a J young girl. Only 27 days before, on I May 24, sho had celebrated her lSib birthday, when slid became legally of age King William IV had died at 2 a m. in Wind-or, three hours before Victoria was notified of her accession in Kensington palace, where she lived with her mother, the Duchess of Kent. In expectation of the King's death a carriage bad been kept ready at Windsor. As .soon as tho King breathed his last the Archhi.-hop of Canterbury and the Lord Chamber lain, Lord Coiiygh.tin, left the death chamber and entering the carriage Were driven '"ruh -i I ! io K m sington.

They ! rang the hell and desired that the rOKIA DEAD. Sixty-Three Years is tied. /. \\<nl<l. I attendant of tho princess Victoria j might be sent to inform her royal , highness that they requested an audi j ctico on business of importance. "After another delay and another ringing to inquire the cause, the at tendant was summoned, wlio stated that the princess was in such a sweet sleep that she could riot venture to disturb her. "Then they Haid: 'We are conic on busincHS of State to the Queen, and even her sleep must give way to that.' It did; und from that she did not keep them waiting. ?ii a few moments she came into the room in a loose white nightrohe and shawl, her nightcap thrown of) and her hair falling upou her shoulders, hur feet in slippers, tears in her eyes, but perfectly col lected and dignified." The attendant, notwithstanding tho urging of the visitor, had not awaken ed Victoria, hut had called her moth er. The Duchess of Kent had aroused the young girl and sent her name into the room where Lord Conyogham and the archbishop were waiting. The Lord Chamberlain knelt down and presented the paper to the aston ished girl, announcing the death of her uncle and notifying her that she was his successor. The girl could say nothing, and the archbishop announced that he had come by desire of Queen Adelaide, widow of King William, who wanted Victoria to know of the peaceful death of her uncle. The Queen's first words were ad dressed to the primate. Sho said: "I beg your grace to pray for mo," which he did. Victoria's first written communica tion as Queen was dispatched an hour later to Queen Adelaide in reply to a request that she might remain at Windsor ".util after the funeral. She addressed this letter to "Her Majesty the Queen." Victoria was told that it should- be directed to the queen dowager. "I am aware of thut," answered Victoria, "but I will not be the first to remind her of her altered position." At 11 o'clock on that same morning she had to preside at her first privy council. An extemporized throne had been placed at the head of the table, around which were grouped the great est men in the kingdom. Without any embarrassment sho read to them her first speech, which had been pre pared by some older and wiser head. Her only embarrassment came when the old men, whom she had been taught to revere from infancy, knelt before her to swear allegiance and kiss her hand. An hour after the privy council she was caller* upon again to preside at a gatiieriog of the oabinet ministers. HER ONE LOVE AFFAIR. The Queen proposed marriagoto the man who became her husband. Royal etiquette imposed the difficult task upon Victoria, as sho was a Queen t.nd he man of her choice, Prince Albert, was of inferior rank and station. Many accounts have been told and written of how Victoria "popped the questiou," but tho true ono has nev_r been published and probably never will be. The matter was too sacred to the Q teen for discussion among her closest friends, and the prince consort, her husband, faithfully kept the secret until he died. Victoria had hut one love affair. No other romance ever figured in her life, though scores of mighty suitors .-ought her hand. In her infancy she was consecrated to her first cousin, Francis Charles Augustus Albert Immanuel, second son of Kniest, Duke of Saxo-Coburg Saal feld. Albert's father and Victoria's mother were brother and sister, chil dren of the Duke of Coburg. The marriage contract between Al bert and Victoria was entered into by their parents when no one dreamed that t he Iii tie girl would ever be Queen of England. She grew up with tho idea so firmly imbedded iu her thoughts that she was to be the wife of Prince Albert that it never occurred to her to alter the arrangement after she became Q'iceu. Albert and Victoria met for the first I ?nue when they were both abmit 17 years of age Albert was very shy as a hoy, but Victoria was never ctnbar r t ^- ?1 when in his com piny, and re garded him in a matter of fact way that greatly amuse-1 ,ior elders. Sim had been Queen a trifle more thati two >ear? when she proposed to the prince and he dutifully accepted. A ia*k even more difficult than asking he mail she loved to marry hor con fronted the young Queon. Duty and offioiil proceduro compelled hor to personally announce her engagement to her privy OounciL This announcement was .made No vember 23, 1839 The privy council was summoned specially to Bucking hum palace to' receive t' >i announce ment. In tbe "Ci**ecnvillo Memoir.*"' the scone is described as follows: I "All the privy councilors had m alcd themselves when tbe foldingd???:.h were thrown open and the queen came in attired in a plain morning gown, but wearing a bracelet containing Prince Albert's picture. She read J the declaration in a clear, sonorous, ] ! sweet-toned voice, but her hands I trembled bo excessively that I won dered she was able to read the paper which she held."' Victoria did not believe in lengthy engagements. At noun, on February 10, 18-10, the queen was wedded to the man of her choice in the Chapel Koy al, St. .lames' pa'ace, less than three months after the formal engagement. mm -mmm*-. Uncle i em's Cabin. If as recently as a decade ago a Northern mau had, in the city of Bos ton, attacked Mrs. Harriet Bceehcr Stowe'? book, "I'nclc Tom's Cabin," he would in all probability have been hooted and jeered as an enemy of hu man rights, if indeed rocks had not been thrown at his head. But time is a wonderful softener, and now men and women of the north are coining to look at the causes which led to the great war of secession in the light of reason and conservatism, with the re sult (hat in many instances they are ready to admit that tho view of the South was right. An illustration of this was presented in Boston the oth er day, when Mr. F. Uopkinson Smith, the author and artist, vigorously at tacked and denounced Mrs. Stowc's famous book before the Newton Club. And not only was there an absence of protest against his expression, but he was listened to with marked inter est. Mr. Smith asserted with great ani mation that "Uncle Tom'b Cabin" was "tho most vicious book that ever appeared." Continuing, be said, in part: "I could go into the prisons of the North to-day and write a similar book. The book precipitated the war, and made the North believe nothing but the very worst-of the South. We are not inhuman people; we arc all alike; we arc Americans. It was an outrage to raise the North against the South. Tho book was an awful, ap palling and criminal mistake." Later, in talking of why ho made the attack upon the book, Mr. Smith said: "Mrs. Stowe went down there into the South with the avowed intention of finding the conditions which she described in her book. She stayed there only three months, and she told her story as if it was all there was to tell. Mrs. Stowc's book, taken in conjunction with the presence of hot-headed South erners in Congress, precipitated the war. " It is idle to speculate at this late day as to whether or not the war could have beon averted had it not been for tho firebrands %hi >wn by New Engl?nders into the tow nod powder of Southern passion, never theless it is unquestionably true that Mrs. Stowc's book was one of the chief firebrands and materially hastened the explosion. It must, therefore, bear its proportion of the burden of responsibility for the fearful destruc tion of life and property that follow ed; and this notwithstanding any lit erary or dramatic merits of work. Tho bock inflamed the north and outraged the South, widening tho breach be tween the scotions and aided in mak ing it irreparable by peaceful means. Taking that view of the matter?and it docs not seem reasonable to take any other?Mr. Smith's criticism is in large part merited. Meantime we think he might have used a little less tobasco sauce.?Savannah JVcic?. mm muu - Pepsin preparations often fail to re lievo indigestion because they can digest only albuminous foods.

In one of the upper corners of the down town Ninth street ear the lively little 4-year-old boy was giving his weary looking mot lier about all she could attend to. First lie would want to gtfind on the seat and hammer on the window until it seemed as if the glass would just have to smash. Then he would stand on his mother's lap with his muddy little shoes ami twist her veil up into knots and push her nose the wrong way and make a fork of his fore anil middle lingers and jab them into her eyes and pull down her back hair and tug at her collar and loosen her breastpin and pull down her lower Hp to make It "snap" and yank at her tars and divert himself in other little comfortable ways of the sort. Then he would demand to be set down on the lioor, in the aisle, where he would pound witli all bis might on his mother's knees and sing at the top of his lungs until she would stop him with a warning, "Sh-sh, Willie!" Whereupon he would seize his moth er's umbrella and attempt to opeu it in her face and bawl lustily when she attempted to take it away from him. When she endeavored to effect a cessa tion of Ids bawl lug, he would kick her on the shins. The other passengers glared at the angel child and secretly hankered to own him for about 42 seconds in order to "put liini next" to a few little things which lie seemed not to understand. The pale, toll man, however, who was sitting right alongside the angel child's sent, seemed to be paying no atten tion whatever to the young one's ma licious pranks. lie looked straight ahead of him out of the window, nor did all of the wriggllngs or noise of the youngster cause him to remove his gaze from n point straight ahead. It might have been thought to look at him that he was suffering from a stiff neck nnd that it was therefore Impos sible for him to turn his head either one way or the other. 1 The angel 4-year-old continued to en joy himself as the car reached the down town section. He began to make comments upon the personal appear ance of entering passengers, loudly calling attention to the "big nose" of this one, to the "big mouth" of that one and the "funny lookln face" of the other one. His mother said "Sh-sb!" a great many times, but the kid ap parently didn't hear her or didn't want to hear her. The passengers went right on longing to have the celestial infant In a woodshed for varying periods of time, but the pale, tall man right along side the 3'oung one kept right on look ing straight ahead. The personal, characteristics of the passengers palled upon the youngster after a time, and he looked around for other ways of amusing himself. Final ly he climbed up on the sent again, and slyly reaching around back of the pale, tall man's head he clutched one end of the hitter's mustache and gave it a good, hard tug. The pale, tall man didn't even wince, lie didn't remove bis gaze from the point directly ahead of him, but he carefully and deliberately gathered tnc young one In his arms, placed the young one a.toss his knee, and, still looking out of the window nnd appar ently totally uninterested In what be was doiug, he let the young one have a round dozen on the spot where they would do tho most good with an amount of resounding force that caus ed the young one to howl like fun. "That's Just what the kid needed In his business," thought all of the other passengers, "and I'd like to have been the ono to hand him what was coming to him. But, cracky, won't his mother more than lay that fellow out, though!" They looked at tho mother, waiting for tho explosion. However, she seem ed to take it all as a matter of course. She didn't utter a word of objection. When the pale, tall man was through spanking the young ono nnd had de posited him In his motber's Jap, the other passengers couldn't understand why she didn't open up on the spanker nnd tell him many things after the fashion of mothers In such cases made nnd provided. The kid was bowling. "You got just what you deserved from pnpa." was the way the mother comforted the yelling one, and then, at 1j street, the pale, tall man signaled the conductor nnd, stepping off, assist ed his wife and recalcitrant son nnd heir to alight, while the other passen gers looked sheepishly at each other after the manner of folks who feel that somehow or nnother they haven't got their money's wor.'h.?Washington Star. The Needle Cure. Sir James Grant, an English physi cian, attributes some forms of muscu lar rheumatism to the presence of elec tricity stored in the tissues. He avers that for some yenrs ho has treated cases of this kind by inserting flue steel needles Into the muscles nnd that, the electricity being drawn off, relief comes almost Instantly. Tho Chinese have an elaborate system of treatment known ns acupuncture which utilizes this Idea; only they use the needles for any and every thing. Contrary to the natural supposition, the treatment does not produce much pain, the sensa tion being mostly confined to a prick ing feeling when the skin is punctured. It Is asserted that the Chinese will drive their lmlrlike needles Into almost any part of the body without Injury nnd that the lungs nnd even the heart can bo probed In this way. Aching in tho small of tho back is an indication of Bright's Disease. The proper course in such oases is to take a few doses of Prickly Ash Bit ters.

"Most of the members of Lloyd's car ry on." busiui'ss as brokers or under writers ou their own responsibility," says a writer in Alnslee's Magazine. "As a corporation Lloyd's assumes no financial liability for the failure of any of its members or subscribers. But It admits to membership ouly meu of reputation nud means, who must de posit a pecuniary guarantee in order to become an underwriting and nonunder writlng member, nn annual subscriber or nn associate. An underwriting member must deposit with the com mittee of Lloyd's ?5,000 or ?0,000, on which he receives Interest and which may be returned to him three years aft er he censes to be an underwriting; member. He pays an entrance feo of ?1,000 and an annual subscription of 20 guineas. An annual subscriber pays nc entrance feo, hot nn nnnnnl sub scription of 7 guineas. An associate member pays 5 guineas. "There were in 1771 only 79 sub scribers to Lloyd's. There are now nearly 1,000. The subscribers la the olden time, as now, did not conflue themselves to marine Insurance. TLey were willing to tuke r. risk on almost anything. There is still preserved at Lloyd's n policy on the life of Napo leon Bonaparte for one mouth at a premium of 3 guineas per cent. Bank deposits arc insured in Lloyd's, also race horses and the lives of threatened monnrchs. An odd case was the cov ering of a risk on a glass bed packed in 20 cases for a certain sultan. Lloyd's Insured the Prince of Wales jubilee stamps, guaranteeing that the Issue would be successful. The voice of a prima donna has been Insured. A tradesman in a London street who has on impression that a monument may fall on his shop has taken out a policy at the nominal premium of 2s. Gd. per cent. Gate ;noney for cricket and foot ball matches; animals of all sorts ashore and afloat arc subjects for in surance. Policies against twins is a favorite form of Insurance. "A well known underwriter Is said to be always ready to lay a thousand to one against twins. Lloyd's issues In surance against burglary. Elephants are insured regularly. The life of the great Jumbo, who came to New York on a Monarch line steamship, was in sured in Lloyd's for the voyage to New York. He was not Insured when the life was knocked out of him by a loco motive on an American railroad whose tracks he was crossing. A celebrated singer took out an insurance in Lloyd's on the life of Queen Victoria. She paid a big premium on account of the age of the queen. T1k? reason the sing er did this was not because she cared anything more than most folks for tho queen, but because her contract to sing would have been abrogated by the queen's death, which would have plunged England into mourning and prevented the singer's appenrance In opera. "The committee of Lloyd's bas a standing advertisement In Lloyd's Weekly Shipping Index requesting all captains who may call at British ports to 'communicate any information con cerning auy wreck or vessel in distress or making a long passage to Lloyd's agent at the first port of call. The val ue of such Intelligence Is great, and it may be sufficient to remind captains how often such news may bo the means of conveying to the wives nnd families of officers and crews the as surance of the safety of their husbands or fathers.' "At an office on the ground floor of the Royal Exchange Lloyd's answers, free of charge, all sorts of inquiries from the wives, other relatives or the sweethearts of sailors anxious about tho cruise of poor Jack or desirous of finding out where bis ship may be. There Is a list kept by which the whereabouts of any British vessel may be found in a twinkling. An impor tant book is the 'Captain's Register,' containing the biography of moro than 30,000 commanders in tho merchant service of Great Britain. Another vol ume not high In favor with the uudc writers is called the 'black book/ in which missing and wrecked p.h!pj are recorded. Lloyd's publishes what is practically a list of all the merchant vessels of the world measuring 100 tons or more, it is called 'Lloyd's Reg ister of British and Foreign Shipping,' and it tells all about every seigoing craft worth mentioning, giving lur ton nage, dimensions and the nam*i of her captain nnd owner." English the Greatest Tea nrlskem. And whither go the millions of pounds of tea which are grown in the gardens of the east? The answer Is rather surprising. Most people would say that Russia is the greatest tea drinking nation of the world nnd re gard tho samovar as the palladium. But it is Great Britain which Is su preme at the tea table. Even 20 years ago we consumed on on overage five pounds of tea apiece every year. Now we disposo of nearly six pounds. No other country approaches us in this re spect, for there is no European country but Holland In which more than one pound per bend Is consumed. After this it is not surprising to learn that the colonies surpass their mother coun try nnd that Australia drinks more than T'/j pouuds per bead of its popula tion. To put the case in a nutshell, the United Ringdom drinks more tea than all the other European countries nnd the United States put together.?Lon don Chronicle. His One Regret.
