Vign.NA, March 8, 1888: ,
,
It is hard to know where to begin to
describe this splendid city. From the
moment you arrive in its superb - depot
(for beauty of architecture, size and com
pleteness of arrangement, far above
..any
thing we have ever seen ) the., wonder
grows. • •
Dashing through the brilliantly lighted
streets, so wide that there are double road
ways for carriages, pedestrians and horse
men, you eross by a bridge, handsomely
adorned with statues, the. Danube canal,
and enter theoid city: - Here the streets
.
are narr ow,' brit you iee the same flee
buildings, ornamented .with statues and
balconies. 4 1'ffe . shop ylndows are more
brilliant than. In Pkris, the ladies' dresses
for bright color and' "richness of material
rival New' York, and . there Is the . same
air of *try' rush , and 'excitement that
catekeslrold of on this moment he enters
Broadway: ' The coachnien dniO furl;
ously, and in the noire* streets, some
without eidewalks, : you • are, startled., by
their peculiar, _, prolonged and, musical.,
cry, audit behooves yonto spring actively
for the - fLost•doorway.: Their skirts' are
clear if yen getrim over, - - for they have
given warning. Ito not knOw-whether•
they proseente•yen • if yon get run over
here, as,they do in Paris.
Why - do Americans so rave about Par.
is, and Say 'nothing of Vienna? It is not
so large, to be sure, but it is Paris itself;
only more* so . More show, more dash
and splendor' than we saw there,- and
surely moiatilanty; it is a positive de
light to walk the streets of a city, where
every few_steps you meet a beautiful face,.
odeliglitnet tasted before since niy last
walk dOwn . Fifth avenue. The Preach
women:dress exquisitely, but I really pity
them thit they have such poor materials
to work upon. ,
- One day we walked up and down "The
* Prater,',!: the•Bons do Bologna of Vienna;
there was the most:, splendid show, car
riages without numer, with liveried ser
vants, : coachmen in great .cocked hats,
and horses with gay trappings of leather
and brisk' ' The liVeries are , quite a few,.
tare of Vienna, being much more showy
than in, Perla The Empetor is fond of •
fast driving, and often drives himself rap
idly through the streets of the city, quite
unattended by, guards., I saw him one
'rainy day, in a little c3upe, all glass in
front, driving from within; six fleet but
small roan horses -flew alongat
a tearing 'trot,. 'While up and dartn..
bounced . two. bright • . yellow ' postil- .
ions with cocked hats trimmed
with silver lace. His Majesty's -rapid
drivinii":thust have been more agreeable
..to him" han ,totheir surely-shaken bones.
Behind the carriage was a small high seat
in which sat a solemn and gorgeous foot
man, in a bright ' yellow coat trimmed,
also, with silver lace, with: folded arms;
he seemed quite conscious of the exalted
state of having an Emperor for coachman.
The Ex-King of. Hanover, too, ,was
*Anted - out to . me. - His c oachman and
footman were lathe brightest
black cocked hats and with great collar
and toffs of fur trimming over almost to
their wrist and elbows. Before the doors
of the dwellings of the nobility yon see
moat wonderful creatures, tall fellows with •
cloth coats of all colors,.red, green,
blue.
and yellow, reaching to their heels, •
lined and trimmed over •with -fur,
cocked hats on their heads, and in their
hands long staves , bound with silver, and
' with a great silver knob on top. I have
never seen them do anything * or, say
Anything, and for what reason . they con
• sent to make a free monkey show of
themselves I cannot tell. _
To return to the Prater, many of the la
diesa left their canitigesand walked up and
down
t ; chatting - with ' acquaintances.
Their dresies Were magnificent, velvet
and satin,- of course, and just behind them
walked tall and solemn footmen carrying
shawls, stopped when they stopped, mov
ing when they moved, being kept as by
some invisible machinery just so far be
hind them. Over • the broad green lawn
near at hand dashed many horsemen, and
though the carriage horses are not as fine
as we see at home; the riding horses are
liner. But to my eyes. used to the easy
and graceful riding of our countrymen,
the universal and awkward English fdsh-r
ion of rising in the stirrup, with the body
leaning "far forward, was exceedingly
ugly, and gave an ides of pairirathef than
pleasure in the performance.
• Onetromes continually and unexpected
ly across statues, fountains and monu
ments: At every turn and from almost
every part of the city the lovely spire of
St. Stephen's Cathedral rises high over
the roofs. - That spire is famous for its
gradual elope from base to summit of 430
feet, and is . indeed a most exquisite and
noble . work. The interior, with its
. lofty r6of, borne aloft by eighteen great
pillars, each crusted thickly with niches
filled with statues, is very beautiful.; It
. is dark With the soft color of age; paint
ings, wood carvings and stone are all
toned down to a colt deep color that is
verybeautiful, while the windows of the
deep ehened, with .
.its fluted roof, are
filled with old glass • of very rich and
brilliant hue, giving exquisite _ toadies of
' Aloft and vivid color. The whole interior-
is being restored and cleaned, bringing

be greatly impaired. Only one chapel is

ed. how on earth it stuck on I ". He had a
pleasant kind face, gray hair and a clear,
Vue eye, and greatly to our delight spoke'
pure German. We went down a long
!light of steps, our guide having ligi•ted
a lamp, We, dutifully went through
dark cell after cell, containing
the bones of Emperors so long
deed one could , not feel much in
terest. But at length we came to a well
lighted vaulted room, with frescoed walls,
and there in the midst was the great
Sarceplaw:is of Maiia Theresa and her
baloved husband Franz I. They lie side
by side; in the same tomb, it is of metal
—the guide said bronze, but it looked
mach morelike lead or. iron; profusely
ornamented with medallions in relief,
and full length. sitting figures at each cor
ner. Maria Theresa and her husband are
ieclining upon the top, not at full length,
but half sitting, leaning on one elbow,
looking 'in each other's faces as if easily
conversing. A small, flying figure of a
child• holds over their: heads a starry
crown. ~/Icross the foot of this splendid
tomb lies the unfortunate and unhappy
Joseph 11, in a sarcophagus of extreme
simplicity, perfectly plain, but for a
large, slightly-ralsed cross, and a small
marble tablet, bearing his name. He lies
alone, away from his equally unhappy
wiver, who have splendid tombs by
oach 'other on the other• side of the chain.
• Isabella; his first wife„ lies there, with
her two cldldren who died in infancy be.
side bet, and Josetihine, his second wife,
near Isabejla. She had no children. The
monk touched - Isabella's tomb 'and said,
",Toseph loved.helbut she loved not him;
Josephine loved him, but he 'loved' her
not," He paused and added, "That is
what we monks believe." One could
not but remember Miss Muhlbach's tra•
gic story of, his life, and however poor 'a
history it may be, I felt indebted to it for
the reality of my impressions of many ; of
the dead whale there.
'There lay also Napoleon's second wife
and his son, nothing 'left of that great
ambitious dream but a heap of dust!
Pointing to a tomb standing alone, and
covered with wreaths of immertellea,
scar& and ribbons, our guide said, "There
lies Va-Yiraliliau Emperor of Mexico."
It made my heart:beat faster...lo stand so
near to one so unfortunate; a •man whose
sad story would be told in history, and
who was yet a man of our own times. A
silver wreath lay at the foot, sent from
Mexico, and a large one at 'the head sent
by his peor wife. The ladies of the court
had covered it with wreaths, and I was
glad- that heTested with his ancestors
among thoie who loved him!.
Onr kindly guide seemed quite moved
as he spoke of him, but either to hide or
recover from his emotion he hastily blew
his nose and offered his snuffbox to a
lady accompanying us,_whci graciously
accepted the courtesy! She hag' evident
ly! an excellent friend of the little old
man and he helped her up the - stairs as .
galli;ntly as a mans& the world.
I have left butlittle space to speak of
the great.picture galleries, and none stall
to describe the many. great pictures, so
beautiful they tempt me constantly to
to rush oft in rhapsodies, but the arrange
ments here are so different from Dresden.
or indeed any other city I have yet seen,
that I must say something about them.
The Belvidere is a palace belonging to
the. Emperor, with handsome grounds
about it, lilted entirely, through- three.
stories, with pictures; freely exhibited to
the public two days in the week. Here,
for the first time, have I seen the Vene
tian school in its glory, and at last under
stand why Titian, Tintoretto and Paul
Veronese have names known over all the
Tim other great galleries belong
to ndblemeni and are also free to the pub
' lic on certain days. One of them is a col
lection of Archduke Albert's, consisting
of drawings and sketches- i there are one
hundred and fifty of R aphael's, among
them his original dra*ing for his great :
picture, of the Transfiguration; as many
more by Albert Darer and Rubens, and
many more equally curious and beautifill.
You enter a 'warm, light room, a gentle
manly man comes forward, learns what
you want, gives you a seat at a table, and
a servant in neat livery bringeyon the
great cases, looking like books, remov
ing one as soon as looked over, and re
placing it with another.
Prince " Litchbinstein's gallery contains
over 1,200 pictures, occupying a splendid
two-story building. A polite servant in
livery attends you, ready to give you In-.
formation, but never obtrusive. No fee
is charged, though you of course give
some small sum to the man .who has pa
tiently waited upon you for an hour or
more. One feels like a guest rather than
a stranger. 'This gallery has more first
class pictufes in proportion to the com
mon-place ones than any rhave yet seen.
Indeed, Vienna is so rich in works of art
that a week or ten days , is absolutely-ne
cessary to examine them, and nowhere
can one spend his time more charmingly.
