The Empress of Buggla,
From the memories of the Count da
Reiset I translate the following, as he is
the last of au old school of diplomats
who leave thoir mark at every Court iu
Europe, carrying hence in return recol
lections and regrots which they are one
day sure to publish. Thirty-nine years
ago in January the Oraml Duke Alexan
der of Russia set out, accompanied by
Count Orloff, and a numorous suite, to
visit, the various Courts of Germany,
whoro Princesses, marriageable and suit
able, were otiieiully reported to exiat.
He went to Berlin, of course, and to sev
eral other of tho North German capitals.
He arrived shortly afterward at Frauk
fort, and put up at the Hotel de Russio.
But no marriageable Princesses woro to
be found at Frankfort, at that timo a free
Republic.
It was only to be tho halting place for
the night, and Carlsruhe their goal,
wnero tne princess Alexandnna, w ho af
terward became Duchess of Saxe-Coburg
Gotha, and the Princess Marie of Baden,
afterward Duchess of Hamilton, and the
mother of the Princess of Monaco, whoso
divorce suit at Roino is a cause cekbre,
formod a pair of the greatest attractions
in Germany. Tho imporinl travelers
were leaving Frankfort, tborefore, when
tho Duke of Hesse-Darmstadt sent an in
vitation to the Grand Duke, bogging his
company at tho neighboring eastlo of
Darmstadt. The young Prince some
what unwillingly accepted the invitation.
The dinner was a family one, and the
young Princess Marie did not appear.
Alexander was even ignorant of her ex
istence, for her nauio had not appeared
on tho official list of German princesses
aspiring to tho hand of the first of conti
nental princes. In the evening, how
ever, the Grand Duko, while passing the
dining-room of tho castle, met a young
lady accompanied by Mile, de Grancy,
her gouvernante. They wore going to
the drawing-room for tea, and the young
lady modestly stepped aside to allow the
Prince to pass. Seeing this young girl,
so naire and so gentle, the Grand Duke
askod of the Hessian nobleman who she
was.
" Tis her Highness, tho Princess Ma
rie oi Hesse. .
"Indeed," said tho Grand Duke; "how
old is she?"
Immediately on reaching tho dining
room he begged to be presented to her.
The Princess Marie was an admirable
young girl modest, simplo and charm
ing. Bhe had been brought up some
what in the Cinderella fashion in the
family of Hesso. The Grand Duke was
struck still more by her retiring good
uess and modest beauty, and during the
evening conversed with her frequently.
On his return to Frankfort the Grand
Duke scarcely spoke a word to tho gen
tlemen of his suite, and retired at once
to his apartments. The following morn
ing Count Orloff (now Russian Ambassa
dor elect to London) waited on the
prince to receive his orders and to learn
the hour he had fixed for his departure
for Baden.
"My dear Count," said the Grand
Duke, "we need go no further, I have
made my choice; my journey is at an
end."
"What?" replied Count Orlig, aston
ished, "what choice has your Imperial
Highness made?"
"I shall marry the Princess Marie of
Hesse if she will do me the honor of
granting me her hand."
"But," said the Count, "from every
point of view snch a thing is impossible.
The Princess Marie has not even been
placod on the list of German princesses
now marriageable. She is in weak health,
and, moreover, too young. Your high
ness has not yet seen tho Baden prin
cesses, and the Grand Duko would be
offended if you did not go to Carlsruho!"
"If necessarry, for politeness' sake, I
shall go to Carlsruhe; but I spent all
nighjt reflecting, and I shall only marry
Princess Marie, who belongs to a family
that has already given Russia one em
press, and which is one of the most illus
trious and ancient in Germany."
Count Orloff was in despair at this
definite speech, and wrote off at once to
the Emperor Nicholas. Indeed, this
news was received with astonishment in
tho Imperial Family. The Princess
Marie was known scarcely at all, having,
since the death of her mother, been
brought up privately by Mile, de
Granoy. The most intimate friends of
the Imporial family did their utmost to
thwart such au alliance.
But the Emperor Nicholas, whose
affection for his son was unbounded,
would not oppose his inclination, and
said almost publicly, in order to put an
end to the various rumors afloat: "Prin
cess Marie of Hesse, like all otuer uer
man princesses, is to be found in the
Gotha Almanack. She is, moreover, a
charming young lady, who will make the
happiness of our son. Both the Empress
and myself think that Alexander ought
to marry according to his liking."
It mav bo easily imagined wLat joy
this news caused to tne nesmuu uuu.ij.
From that moment the gaze of tho whole
of Europe was directed to that young
girl, bo modest and so accomplished,
who was soon to ascend one of the great
est thrones in tho world.
From the Count de Reiset I cease to
quote, but must add, by the light of my
own brief exiierimee in touring to and
from St. retersburfi', that I have never
heard but one voice of love and admira
tion for this Empress, who never forgot
her maiden simplicity, modesty and vir
tuous bearing. She was born on tne Bth
of August, 1824, and married the Mil ol
April, 1811, just about four months after
tho accidental meeting at Darmstadt I
have described from Count de Relets
memoirs. London Curr. llalUnw

After familv prayer, a few evenings
since, a little Quincv boy asied:
"Mamma, how can God hear folks pray
when h's so far away?" Before the lady
could frame a suitable reply a sunny

mently said: "I jes'. bet hea K tele

Not Tall Esoroii. A mxxl storv Is
told of Prince Alexander, of Holland.
The Prince, a youug man of rather staid
and literary tastes, uiid a visit to Berliu
'art Summer, and a review was given in
hi honor by the Imperial Court. Mili
tary pageants form an integral part of
every grand procession in tne Prussian
capital; but Prince Alexander, with little
inclination for soldiery, sat in hilent con
templation while the troops were defiling
before him. All at once the Crown
Prince drew the guest's attention to a
L'hlun regiment, with the remark that
they were tine body of men." "Yes,"
replied Prince Alexander, "but they are
not tall enough." This reply, delivered
with the original Dutch phlegm, a little
surprised his interlocutor, who, however,
tperely observed: "Very well, then you
must see my cuirasMera." The cuirass
iers, erect iu their saddles, like men-at-arms
of the Middle Ages, went by in
breast-plates and plumes. "Well, what
do you think of them?" asked Prince
Fritz. "Splendid men, but not tall
enough." Still more piqued than aston
ished at this unexpected response, the
heir to the crown of Germany exclaimed :
"indeed ! then wait till you see the regi
ments of the guard." In duo Jiino these
magnificent six-footers made their ap
pearance, and the same query fell from
tho lips of the Crown Prince. "They are
not tall enough," very quietly returned
Prince Alexander, adding gently but
meaningly, "We can flood our country,
when we choose, twelve feet deep."
H osteal last Ad vane aT.
We are not musical ourselves, but
have lots of friends who are, and for
that reason take much more of an inter
eat in the fino art than wo otherwise
would. Our attention is so often at
tracted to the beautifully arranged show
window of Bartsch's musio store, that
we are induced to drop in and have a
social chat with Mr. Warren, tho genial
manager. Ho has long ago proved him
self a gentleman of experience in his lib
eral but judicious way of advertising.
Ho is a believer in printer's ink, but
don't liko to daub it on too thick. It is
gratifying to see the steady increaso of
stock in this establishment, and we are
informed that the end is not yet. Each
steamer brings something now. A largo
lot of piano covers, books aud stools are
on the way from tho East, and expected
soon, The demand for tho world-renowned
Steinway piano has boon such
that Mr. Bartsch'was unablo to get from
the factory enough to supply the wants
of the trade. Mr. Warren notes a vory
decided improvement in the musical
taste of Portland during tho past two
years. A much better class of music and
books are in domand. Tho call for the
different operas and classic musio is ten
fold greater. This is gratifying indeed,
for why should we not cultivate a taste
for tho best? We cheerfully recom
mend this establishment to the lovors of
musio, and the disposition to please is
plainly manifested. No inquiry or letter
goes unanswered, and everything is done
in a business-like way, which cannot fail
to give satisfaction, and build lip an eu
viablo trade.

KIDNEY TEA,
Ahtorii, Oregon. D.irl, 1H7.
I take pleaauro in testifying to the merits o
the OKKGO.V KIDNEY TKA. For the past
threo yours I have been sullering f oru kidney
troubles, and during that time havo tried nearly
every kind of kidney medicine in tha market,
almict without anv relief. Having heard that
the OKKUON KIONEY TEA pwrteised wonder
fill procrtics, I purchased a juick.igc, and from
the first dneo ohlained relief, and by Ilia use of
the oua iiackogn feel completely cured.

Some llinnr niontlis ago 1 was attacked with
severe pnin in my back. I bought a package
the OREGON KIDNEY TlJA.and by tho time
I had used one-half of it I was entirely relievod
and have not boeu troubled siuce. I oheerfully
recommend it to all who may be suffering from a
lame or weak back as a pleasant, safe and good
remedy. B. J. GRIG3UY.
Portland, Oregon, Jan, 11, 1880
Having a severe back ache last summer, I tried
the OREGON KIDNEY I EA. 1 used one can,
which eil'ncted a radical cure. I would recom
mend it lo all who are alluded as an unfailing
remedy. JULIUS ACU.

Roth myself and wife have lieen for soma yeiiti
alllietrvl with disease of the kidneys, and had
tried many remedied without obtaining any per
manent relief. About three months ago we were
induced lo try a package of tho OREGON KID
NEY TKA, which has apparently cured both of
us, as since taking it two weeks we have felt no
symptoms of the disease. Wo can hae-tily rec
ommend it to others similarly atllictod, as ro be
liove it will do all that is claimed for it
