Alnwick Castle, in Northum- berland, for instance, is simply crowded with pictures by ' Titian, Bellini del Sarto, of which no reproductions exist, and which are outside the ken of the ordinary experts of the Italian school of old masters. In fact, Alnwick Castle is a perfect mine of treasures from an ar- tistic,historical, and archaeological point of view, the family being in undisturbed possession of this princely home for over eight centuries. Even the owners of homes such as Alnwick Castle are ignorant ofthe trea- sures which they contain, and I remem- ber Sir Harry Verney, now dead, broth- er-in-law of Miss Florence Nightingale relating on one occassion how in empty- ing some long unused rooms of his ancient country seat he had actually found an authentic portriit by Van Dyck used to cover up a rat hole. Fortunate- ly the rodents had respected the paint- ing more than those of Sir Harry’s an- cestors who had put to so _base a use this masterpiece of one of England’s most famous piinters.

L - _ I declined the oier of a bisliopric and as having taken his place as a mere curate of the Church of St. Elizabeth at Nurem- berg, under the name of the Rev. Dr. Max Wettin, has now renounced his civil list from the national treasury of the Kingdom of Saxony, taking the ground that inasmuch as he performs no royal duties he has no need to be a bur- den on the taxpayers in that connection. This is asaving to the national trea- sury of at least $50,000 a year. The royal priest proposes to live on his stipend aa curate, added to whatever allowance his father, Prince Geoi~ge,the heir apparent to the throne, proposes to give him. ‘ I see that I have just referred to for- eign'Dnkes.
