THE EOUEBONS.
As It mny now be roirnrded as cer-
tttin that Queon lnabollu and her chil
dren will bo excluded from tho throne
of .Spain, we hare in her einulRinn
another examplo of thut retributive
justice which liaa followed the raeo to
which flic belong, for tho laid eighty
roars. 1 he queaiiou of who is to be
bcr successor being yet unsettled, it
would be premature to say at present
that she will be the hint reigning Bour
bon sovereign ; but in tho meunlimo
we give a brief sketch or that celebra
ted royal house, the history of which
events taking place in Spain invest
just now with a peculiar interest. ,
OIUOIN OF THE BOURBONS.
Tht House of Bourbon, which has
fiven so many sovereigns to Franco,
pain and Italy, is of French origin,
deriving iu name from tho old lords
of Bourbon, a noblo fumily which cen
turies ago held very large landed pos
sessions in the former province ol
Bourbonnais in the center of France.
Through tho mnrringe of a member of
the Capot family with a Bourbon
heiress, the noble bouso became allied
to royally in tho thirteenth century,
and about the ruiddloof the sixteenth
we find the first of the raeo on a
throne, in the person of Antoine do
Bourbon, King of Navarre. Antoino
was the frither of tho gallant and re
nowned Henry of Navarre, who after
wards became King of Franc under
the title of Henry IV. With this cel
ebrated prince begins tho history of
THE BOURBON DYNASTY IN FRANCS.'-
And what a history! Extending
from 1589, when Heury IV. ascended
the French throne, to 1930. when
Charles X. was driven out of hia king;
dom by tho revolution of July, it em
braces a period filled with events of
the docpeat interest and of the high
est posfiible interest to the human
family. From tho accession of Henry
IV. up to tho time of the first French
revolution, there was no break in the
royal succession of the Bourbon lino
in France. Louis XIII., Lor. in XIV.,
Louis XV., and Louis XVI. were all
Bourbons; but, taking the first and
the Inst of those fire kings as regards
thoir qualities as rulers, nothing could
present a sharper ?ontra"t than the
character of the first French Bourbon
sovereign, Henry "tho groat" and "tho
good," as his people delighted to style
him, and that of the unfortunate "aim
of St. Louis," who full by tho guillo
tine. Whatever the original virtnoa
of the House might have been, by the
time that the volcanio outburst of the
revolutionary spirit first shook France
and tumbled a diehonored throne into
the dust, the race had become wololly
degenerate. The guillotine did not,
however, finich it in Franco. From
the stormy days of the Revolution,
and through those oi the Consulate
and F.mpire, the two brothers of tha
unfortunate Louis lived in exile; but
whon Napoleon full the elder of thorn
was placed on the French throne by
the Allies under the tillo ot Louis
XVIII. ; a son of Louis XVI.. who
died whilo yot a child, in 1796, had
been the seventeenth of that name.
Louis XV1I1. had no children, and on
his death, which took place in 1X24,
he was succeeded by his brother,
Charles X. But experience had ut
terly failed to teacli wisdom to this
obstinnte and tyrannical ruler, who
sought to restore tho absolution of
the French monarchy, the consequence
ot which was thnt a revolutionary
outbreak occurred in July, 1830, com
pelling the King to fluo Irom France,
and finally to abdicate The .alter
he did, in favor of his grandson Hen
ry, luko of Bordeaux; but the act
came too lute to save his house.

How Radical Coniirmsmen Vote
Thkmsklvks iticu lion. Sanford K.

exposed tho way the rapacious Jaco

He said:

was that two dollars a gallon was put

ask him whether. ho does not know,
and every man does not know, that
members of Congress nnd Radical
politician bought largely of high wines
beforo that tax was put on, and then
pockoted tho two dollars a gallon
which that tax increased it in price.
Why, it would not tukea grentniany
barrels of highwines to make a man
rich. . That lax would amount st forty
gallons a barrel, to eighty dollars a
barrel, and a thousand barrels of high
wines, which is not a great quantity,
would make a man very rich. I

Mr. Robert Bonner, of tho New York
Ledger, tho liberal patron of the Syl
vanus Cobb class of novelists, has
oh"erod ilr. Beecher quite a largo sum
of money for the parade of his talents
in a new field and the notoriety of his
name, he has pocketed tho well, the
csimpliment, and has kindly consented
lo fraternize with Sylvanus Cobb and
other litterateurs of a similar calibre
Tho first instalment of the novel so
bargained lor has been out a week.
To say that tho opening chapter is
"Becchciism" is simply to slate what
every one who knows the intense
vanity ol tho man would expect it to
be. The hand of Beecher is visible in
every line. Tho notions of Beecher,
both secular and religious, crop out in
every sentence. New England was
his birthplace, therefor.) he lauds
New England, its her accepted apostle
uhould, and with trie certainty that be
ill be amply repaid by fulsome pruise
from Ihe quarter from which he is
constantly spilling the air.
"The chief ehuractors of the open
ing," says one of tho Northern journ
als, "ure the hero and huroino of a love
story." How that story is construct
ed we learn from the following brief
but happy analysis: "Mr. Beecher
aaiidwichos at iuicrvals between the
points or bis lovo tulo und the moral
which is to adorn it. i-Yrst comet a
strct'k of love fat, and then follows a
streak of rdigiuus lean .'" Ji is his old
pulpit method transferred to tho wri
ting of a novel. First a text from
Scripturo, und then a discourse on I
Sharp's rifles tho thiii slreuks of
"religious lean" beinir almost entirely I
bidden between the broad layers of
political fat. Ono peculiarity ol the
novel in question wo have already
alluded to. It introduced us to Beecli
er under different forms and disguises.
Writing from what the Germans cull
"his inner consciousness," tho man
Beecher stumps his imago Uoa all
tho most prominent ol his personages
Here, for instance, is a description of
himself sermonizing under the disguise
of Parson Marsh : Titer had been
some, little pariah quarrel, and on that
afternoon tho text was : 'A new com
mand I write onlo you, that yo love
one another.' But after the sermon
was done, tho text was tho best part
of it. Somo one said that Parson
Marsh's sermons woro like tho meet
ing houso tho steeple was tho only
thing that folks could see after they
got home."
Wo cordially commend this portrai
ture cf Beuchor by his own hand to
tho devotees ol Plymouth Church,
Brooklyn.
In another place wo have a still
more graphic sketch ot Beecher in the
disguise of a rooster in the midst ol
his congregation ofhuns. We quote:
"Tho gmit golden-speckled rooster
drew up with magisterial dignity and
' ailed out 'Cut tark-cui, cut, cut.'
Receiving no answer, with a low
crooning noise in his throat, he cock
ed his eye, first at tho doctor, then at
tho h otio, as much as to say, 'Do you
know what's going on here V And
then letting down his right foot, which
had been drawn up in suspense, he
pompously ni.ived otT to lecture his
liens ou tho mystery of life !"
The whole of the abovo extract is
capital. How admirably licet her hits
himself olT us ' golden speckled." The
"Cut-turk cut, cut, cut," tho shrewd,
side long cock of the eyo, tho artful
insinuation that everybody must noo-l
essarily lu ignorant but himself, im
