the latter being made by grinding
down a table knife and providing it

the whole not being very handsome.
Hut it answered the purpose, for by
reaching through the bars the sheriff
was able to unlock* the cage door with

There is little, I imagine that could
be said of that remarkable time-spanning temple, Westminister Abbey that
has not been said a thousand times before. Six centuries and a half have
passed said the guide, since Henry the
Third piously raised the many clustered
shafts and pointed arches of the present
abbey of Westministers and as I looked
upon this* handsome edifice standing as
a glorious monument to the genius of
our English ancestors, outrivaling the
works of modern man, its noble spires
and graceful minarets still pointing to
heaven in undiminished lightness,
strength and grandeur, the thought
rushed in upon me what a pity that
Henry, the Third, did not live to get
the contract for the erection of some
of the public buildings in America.
Westmi nister like nearly all of England's churches is a combination of
church and cemetery and countless
hundreds of the men of history within
its walls are sleeping the sleep that
knows no waking* in mortality. Here
lies kings peacefully sleeping side by
side with those who deposed them;
statemen with those who in life contended with them for the poor reward
of vain pomp and glory of transient
greatness, and who, perhaps, like poor
Wolsey, hazarding all on the smiles of
a fickle monarch's favor, found, when
too late, that a fall was inevitable,—a
fall like that of Lucifer, never to hope
again.
Wolsey "s enemy, brave Buckingham,
whom he sent to the headsman, lies
buried here (Cromwell, Wolsey's faithful follower, who was beheaded -for
having unwisely selected homely Anne
of Cleves for the fourth wife of Henry
the Eighth, was buried in the Tower of
London.) The homely queen, the
cause of Cromwell's downfall, is also
resting here. She was born homely,
but lucky; for, wisely consenting to an i
ecclesiastical divorcement from her
much-married lord, she escaped the
fate of his other wives,—unhappy Anne
Boleyn and Catharine Howard, who
were divorced from Henry and all
earthly ties by his private headsmen,
a procedure about as quick and on tho
whole probably more satisfactory in
operation than a Chicago divorce court.
Queen Elizabeth—daughter of the ill-
fated Anne Boleyn, Queen Mary,Henry
Seventh, Mary, Queen of Scotts, whom
Elizabeth assisted into repentance aud
a bettor world, James First, her son,
Edward Fifth and brother, Richard,—
both murdered in the Tower of London
by their affectionate uncle, Kichard
tho Third, .vho considering the cares
of state too weighty for their young
shoulders, destroyed their interest In
worldly affairs with a feather pillow,
and took the reins of government in
hand himself, only to have them wrested from him three years later and his
royal head battered into hexagon form
by ths enraged soldiers of Richmond,
his bones afterward being- scattered to
the four corners of the country. Here
to the left rests the ashes of an Arch
Bishop, whose, mortal remains were
consigned to mother earth in 1376 and
near at hand lie the remains of the Earl
of Pembroke, who died in 1296,. Pious
abbotts, and ungodly noblemeuj ra§cals
of royal blood and great men of plebian
birth, priests, painters and poets, soldiers, sailors, singers and scholars are
all here waiting the rolling away of
time to eternity. Here lies a pious
bishop who gave his life's work to the
dissemination of the great truth and
near him rests Charles Darwin who
devoted his life to proving that the
Fancy the absurdity of shoving a
spindle legged youth with a face like a
basket of mouse traps iuto the cold
world with a name like that of Christian, Victor, Albert, Ludwig, Ernest,
Anton, and without a surname at that.
Loudon editors, however, do not waste
space on the full name but _iave 'given
him the more expressive though less
reverent title of "Collars and Guffs.''
London editors are shockingly free,
with the affairs of the Royal family,and
one of them in particular devotes a
great deal of space to instructing H.
R. _L, the Prince of Wales, on how to
beat his creditors and how to win at
Baccarat (pronounced Baekai-aw) and
also how to bring up "Collars and
Cuffs in the way he should go, I have
seen some very pointed articles in the
American papers ou the President's
son, Russell Harrison, but they are
very, very mild as compared with
some of the articles of these London
editors on the Prince of Wales.
