4A little while ago a Spaniyh painter was commisionel to paint a likeness of the baby King. He did so, and presented a bill for $20,- 000. Queen Christina objected, and said the price Was too extravagant. The artist ex- pressed his reg et that his terms were too high tor the royal purse, and begged her majesty t» accept the picture asa yift. The Queen, highly indignant, wrote a check at once.

A beggar, whu for thirty years bas heen a familiar figure in St. Peter's, Rome, died re- cently from apoplexy as he was leaving the church. He was the only mendicant who was permitted to beg within the church itself.

PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES AN AMERICAN TRIP. Lonpon, Jan. 20 —It is stated on excel- lent authority that the Prince of Wales con- templates @ visit to America in the spring. He will be accompanied by the Princess of Wales and possibly his second sun, Prince George, who will be 26 next June. The royal physicians have for some time past advised the Princess to undertake a sea voyage for the benefit of her general health, and now that she bas suffered severely from the influeuza, the recommendation kas been urgenily renewed. The Prince has been considering the Atlantic remedy for some time in conuection with his own recent ail- ments, and will no doubt sail on his second visit to the new world as sovn as the pre- sent tempestuvds weather moderates.

For further’ information regarding Saint Crispin, 1 would refer my corres peudenst in Butler’s Lives of the Suints, wherein is a very ful account of the for- mation of the pivus confraternity of brother shuemakers, an establishment begun Henry Michael Buch in Paris in the year 1645.

Shakespere makes it appear that Crispin and Crispinian were one person, and not two brothers. The batile of Agincourt was fought on the 25th October, and iu refer- ence to the day Shakespere makes Henry V. say to his soldlers :

“This day is called the Feast of Crispian.

He that outlives this day aud comes safe home

Will stand a tip-toe when the day is nam’d, And rouse him at the name of Crispian. He that shali live this day and see old age, Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours, And say, ‘o-morrow is St. Crispian :

Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars,

And say, These wounds I had on Crispian’s Day.

And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by, Fiom this day to the ending of the worid, Bat we in it shall be remembered,”
