At last, some restriction is to be put on dusiling among officers in the German army. The Emperor has ordered that all cases are to be brought before the colonels of regiments, who are to consider them serivusly. Permission to fight is to be re- used: Ist, when the quarrel has arisen out of a coffee-house or club-room brawl; 2d, when one of the parties has already fought three duels; and 3rd, when one of the parties is a married man with children. The cases in which duelling is to be al- lowed are: Ist, a public assault, to which apology is refused; 2nd, an insult toa lady, being a relation or the betrothed of the chalienger, It will be remembered that the Prince Consort, during his lifetime, wished some such restrictions introduced into the English army, Lut the suggestion was overruled by the Duke of Wellington.

I think the following facts relating to the death of General Wolife, the conqueror of Quebec, will be of interest to your read- ers. I came across them in a reference to an old copy (102 years old) cf the London Chronicle : ~

“It is a circumstance not, generally known, but believed by the army which served under General Wolfe, that his death wound was not chance of war, but given by a deserter from his own regiment. The circumstances are

thus related: The General perceived one! };,

‘of the sergeants of his regiment strike a

man under arms (an act against which he | with six bundred and

had given particular orders), and knowing the man to be a good soldier, reprehended the aggressor with much warmth, and ‘threatened to reduce him to the ranks, | This so far incensed the sergeant that he took the first opportunity of deserting ‘to the enemy, where he meditated the means of destroying the General, which he jeffected by being placed in the enemy's jleft wing, which was directly opposite the ‘right of the Biitish line, where Wolfe com- /manded in person, anc where he was mark-|

with a rifle piece, and unfortunately for

It was in King George’s Chapel, that, in | 1813, the body of King Charles I. was dis- \¢vered, Charles Il. had pretended to |Search for it, but probably did not wish to find it, or to incur the cost of a sumptuous monument.

On the coffin being opened, the face was found dark and discolored, the forehead and mouth had little of their muscular sub- Stance remaining, the cartilage of the nose was gone, but the leit eye, though open and full ot the first exposure, vanished almost immediately. The shape of the face was long, the nearly black hair was thick at the back of the head ; the beard was reddish-brown. On examining the head,the muscles of the neck showed con- traction, and the fourth cervical vertebra had been evt through transversely, leaving | the severed surfaces smooth and even. The ; appearance was such as a blow from a heavy in this chapel sleep many kings and queens, Jane Sey- mour among them, and Henry VIII, by own desire, ** near his true and loving |Wife, Queen Jane.” The gigantic tomb,

Windsor Castle—now the favorite abode in England of Her Majesty Queen Victoria —-is one of the most historic piles in Eng- land, What famous scenes in history have been enacted there, and how gaiety and sadness have each had their dwel.ung there- ia and how in the days gone by.it sold walls have echoed the stern,shouts of battle, aud the lighter festivities of the merry-makers at some royal pageaut. Of this old castle there are very many stories told, a few of which I here give to your readers :

+ # *

The very prettiest legend about Windsor is connected with the little garden at the foot of its proud tower, from which twelve counties can be seen in clear weather. A young Scotch prince, sent to France to be out of the way of his dangerous uncle, the Duke of Albany, was captured at sea, and sent to Windsor, where he remained a prisoner for eighteen years. In his poem, “The King’s Quaire,” the prince has des- cribed how he fell in love with Lady Jane Beaufort, as she walked in the garden,

prisoner. The garden, he says, had an arbour in the corner, ard was railed in with wands and close-knit hawthorn bushes; and in the midst of the arbour was “a sharp, green, sweet juniper.”

The fairest or the freshest young flower

For which sudden abate anon astart The blood of all my body to my heart.

Then the enraptured prince describes the dress of the maiden; her golden hair fretted with pearls and rubies, emeralds and sap- phires; on her head a chapilet of plumes, red, white, and biue, mixed with quaking spangles; about her neck a fine gold chain, with a ruby in the shape of a heart :

Seemed burning upon her white throat.

horses, catile, sheep and poultry. They visited the establishments of some of the most noted imaporters and stock raisers of that province, and after considerable deli- beration they made their selections, which certainly reflects much credit on their judg- ment. The horses purchased are un- | doubtedly noble animals, and were selected

| with the utmost care as to their individua!

‘merit and purity of descent They were bought from the firm of Messrs. Robert Beith & Co., Bowmanvilie. The name of this firm has become famous for pure-bred stock. They are also known in Great Britain as the purchasers and importers of some of the best horses that have left their native land.

One of the horses purchased from that firm by Edward Poole is the English hack- ney stallion Gem. This horse was foaled in 1880, and imported by R. Beith & Co. in 1888; sire Gem of the Peak, by Mr. Svkes, by Tatton Sykes; his dam by | Laughing Stock, by Stockwell ; grand-dam by Sir Hercules, great-grand-dam by Bravo. | dir. Sykes won the Czarewitch Sir Tatton | Sykes won the Two Thousand Guineas and ithe St. Leger. Laughing Stock took the | £100 prize at the Royal Show at Woolver- | hampton, asthe best thoroughbred stock. Stockwell won the Derby.

The Gem is a beautiful brown horse, (standing 16 hands on short legs, possessing | ummnense bone and muscular propelling a well-jointed, with clean, flat legs.

He has the best of knee action, and carries himself in splendid form. His head is well {set on his gracefully arched neck, and his 'eye 18 bright and sparkles with intelligence.

He is guick in the spring and majestic in jaction. He is pronounced by competent | judges to be one of the best and soundest | horses of the day.

The Gem when three years old, won {second prize at the Cheshire Agricultural | Society Show at Crewe, in 1883, beating {six others. In 1884 wun the first prize at | the samme Society's Show at Northwich. In 1886, took the second prize at the Royal | Manchester, Liverpool, and North Lanca- shire Agricultural Society's Show at , Chester.
