The Qaeeo, who wu at Belmonl, in Scotland, tale- gnphed her MoeptHoe of the nngnationi, and mmmoned the leader of the oppoeition, the Marqnif of Saliabnry, to confer with him. When the Marqnia arrived, the Queen " co mman ded " him to form a new miniitiy, which he thereapon proceeded to do. Bat the Qoeen might have aent for and iMoed the same command to any other etatesman of either party. She was not compelled to aend for Lord Salisbory, hot in doing so need her own discretion, while at the same time she followed the nsnal course in such mn Many people, who are well informed in most matters, labor imder one or two en- tirely different mistakes as to the position of the Qaeen, or the sorereign, in the £nglith political system. Some persons are nnder the impression that she exercises a great deal of royal power, and in many ways actually directs the government of her realm. Others re- gard her as a mere puppet, a useless orna- ment, with no power whatever, and wholly subject to the will of hw ministers. Neither of these views is correct. The truth lies midway between them. Many of the powers and functions which the Queen apparently and nominally exercises, she really does not exercise at all. For instance according to the laws of Enghmd, the sov- ereign has the power to declare war or con- clude peace, to make treaties, to create peers, to expend the revenue, to summon and dis- solve Parliament, and to veto bills. But each and all these powers are really exercised by the ministry of the day. The Queen only does these things on paper. Her name is used and her signature given to all these acts. But she is obliged to act in re- gard to them as the ministers advise her. Should she undertake to do any of these things against the will of the ministers, she would probably provoke a revolution. On the other hand, the Queen is far from being a nonentity in the English system. She has, indeed, no real, arbitrary power to direct the policy of her State; but, as Mr. Gladstone has pointed out in his " Glean- ings of Fast Years," she has a very great " influencs." She reigns, but does not govern. While she cannot really command, she can do much, by reason of her exalted place and 87cial supremacy, to influence the course of political events. The Queen is always Informed of every step her ministers intend taking in public affairs. She discusses these steps, and gives her views upon, tnem and her views are alwayslistened to with deferenc. Ministers will strive, if possible, to accede to her wishes. Though without power, the Queen thus has an important influence. This influnce, too, is largely measured by the personal qualities and character of the sovereign. Her prudence, experience, zeal for the welfare of the people, and familiarity with public aflairs, if such qualities she has, will greatly increase her influence. On the other hand, a weak, foolish, dissipated, ca- pricious, or inexperienced sovereign would have much less weiirht in public affairs. Queen Victoria has reigned so long, has shown such sensible and patriotic qualities, and is known to be so earnestly devoted to the well-being of her empire, that her opin- ions and wishes are an important factor in British policy. Should her successor fail in these traits, he would be far less influential than Victoria now is in the English realm. A Sea Monster in (klway Bay. A party of fishermen have captured with great difSculty a sea monster which was in- spected by thousands of people. It is about nine feet and a half long, about five feet in girth, and weighs close on three cwt. The mouth is like that of a shark, the upper jaw protruding about six inches beyond the low- er, lo additioQ to this a long pig-shaped snout extends from the upper jaw about eight laches. The eyes are large, and re- semble those of a cow. There are five rows of gills on each side, divided by a larger of grizzly flesh. There are two rows of teeth, each tooth is about two inches long and as thin as a wafer. Each tooth laps over its neighbour. The skin is of a silvery colour and underneath it is a number of spots known as buttons. These diminish in size as they near the tail. The tail is fan-shaped. There is no dorsal fin. The buttons are half- an ioch in diameter at the head, and in the centre of each is a thorn a quarter of an inch long as sharp as a needle. The Dublin Science and Art Mnsuem have obtained poe- session of the head and tail of the monster, which proves to be a fine example of the spinions sharkâ€" one of the rarest Irish fishes.

John Wood, age 67, and the motimr of twelve dfldren, eloped from her home near Toledo, Ohio, with WDliam Bradlej, aged 21, and went to Detndt, whore they were eventoally obliged to go to the poor- hoose. When Annie Leon left New York twenty- two years ago to attend her hnsbond and son, who were mortally wonnded atGettys- bug, she lost her two-year-old daoghter. TIm girl has just beenfonndin a Uind asylom at Colombns, Ohio. The son of the Scotch millionaire, who has beoome greatly interested in agriooltoxe, has hired himself to an Illinois farmer for $15 a month so as to leam the Aneriean methods of fanning. He agrees to labor two years at that rate of pay. David Reedy, a colored man, living near Marietta, Ga., was struck while working by a whirlwind, and, as he said, "whisked into the air to a height that made the trees look like little brushes." His descent was so easy that he was not in the least harmed. Frank Smilie, a drummer, was in hlacon, Ga., recently and was handed a letter dated April 9, 1884, that had travelled thousands of miles in hundreds of mail bags while vainly pursuing him. A year ago he left Cincinnati witiiont a certain perfumed letter that was expected, bathe gave instructions to have it forwarded. It arrived the day after his departure, and was forwarded. It kept right behind him, and followed him into Georgia, Alabama, Florida, and Missisnppi. All this time he wondered why " she did not write." About a month ago he read a marriage notice in which the writer of the misplaced letter figured as the bride. A Sa4 Case of Poisonlns is that of a man or woman afflicted with dis- ease or derangement of the liver, resulting in posisonons aeonmulations in the blood, scrofulous affection, sick-headaohes, and dis- eases of the kidneys, lung or heart. These troubles can be cured only by goingto the pri- mary cause, and putting the liver in a healthy condition. To accomplbh this result speed- ily and effectually nothing has proved itself so efcacions as Dr. Pierce's "Golden Medi- cal Discovery," whioh has never failed to do the work claimed for it, and never will. Feather-trimmed suits are very stylish and young chickens are discarding their overcoats for them. Wh|it can be more disagreeable, more dis- gusting, than to sit in a room with a person who is troubled with catarrh, and has to keep coughing and clearing his or her throat of the mucus which drops into it 7 Such per- sons are always to be pitied if they try to care themselves and fail. But if they get Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy there need be no no failure. A Chinese girl is easily recognized by a double joint in the left knee.

There are ladies, and fashionable women, too, who utterly refuse to we«r tinsel, high hats or bonnets, bustles or high coiffures, but they are the exception, not the rule. Complain as we may About our lot in life, we cannot deny that any are exempt by their position from tiie oonmion lot of pain and suffering. The high- est as well as the most humble must be ever on the alert to take advantage of such means as will relieve, when pain makes a relief a necessity to our comfort. In a letter from " Government House, Ottawa" asking for a supply of " Putnam's Com Extractor" we are reminded of two tilings â€" the first, tiiat corns are universal, and secondly, that Put- nam's Painless Com Extractor is recognized by all classes i^ the moet certain, painless and non-poisonous remedy for corns. Be- ware of the article just as good, and use only Putnam's Painless Com Extractor. It la stalled as a remarkable fact that fleshy people never commit soidde. In the manufacture of tobacco from the leaf, sugar and molasses and gum of some kind are used. In the manufacture of the "Myrtle Navy" brand the sugar used is the finest white loaf, known in the trade as gran- ulated. This is a sugar in which there is seldom any adulteration, but to guard against the possibility of it, all sugar used in the factory is submitted to careful tests of its purity. The gum used is the pure gum arable. Everyone loves power, even if they do not know what to do with it.
