She will stay there six or eight weeks. The fnliage is only just beginning to make Its appearance In the north. Wa are nearly a month la advance in tha south; but tbe Queen likea braoing weather," and the winds are keen and almost wintry yet in Scotland.

Tbe Queen lives quite a patriarchal life in Scotland, and is on qnite familiar terms with her Highland subject. One of the One traits in the ehsracter of the Prince of Wales is the vrneratlon he has for his father's memory, and the distinct and markod respect he elwaT shows in regard to every wlah or desire of the Queen. On gun-day the Prince took luncheon with Mr. Alfred de Rothschild, at No. 1 8earoore-plaee.

Among the lsdles and gentlemen invited to meet him war Mr. And Mra. Langtry, Mme. Fattl and Hlgnor Nieollni, Lord and Lady Hoaebery, the Crown Prine of Denmark. Hr N.

de Roth-achild. and Lord and Lady Manderille. The Queen does not receive Patti at court Mrs. Langtryaud her husband are reported to be contemplating a visit to America. What a rush af photographing there will be 1 Mrs.

First, you receive a circular setting forth some laudable object of your charity. Then you are asked for a subscription, or a contribution toward a bazaar in aid of the fund. Or if you are a lady you are asked to tako a stall and if the lady does, and she is your wife, your sister, your cousin, or your aunt Tou must ro to the fsir. There you are importuned by society ladies and women of rank to buy or invest in lotteries, and you leave after aa hour or two dispelled of your coin, in return for which you are laden with slippers, amateur pictures, crutch-sticks, and albums. The Wellington Barrack at Kensington have been the scene of several bazaars thia season.

At one of them there were some pretty articles of ornament made by the daughters of the Prince of Wale. Mrs. Lngtry contributed some cap which she had knitted herself. They were not niht-caps. but they were bought with avidity.

Lord Beauchamp, tbe Worcestershire Earl who recently was a widower, has married a new wife, and they gave a delightful reception at their town bouse this week. A few days previously Lady Jersey gave a musical evening. The two balls which are talked most about this season were given br Lady Oct avis Shaw, fctewart, in Orosvenor-place, and Mrs. Strickland Constable, in Prince's Gardens. I csnnot pretend to repeat all the pretty things" I heard about Mrs.

Constable' evening; but a young lady who gushed about it to me in an opera boi a night or two since said all the lovely married women were there, the latest bride, and the best dancers in town. Mrs. Qerard, Mrs. Qus-soon. Lady Mandevllle, Mrs.

Langtry, and Lady De Clifford were the bellos. Nicolini and Patti have sung at several morning parties. Mrs. Oppenhelzn gave a concert at which Marimon ung. It is noticeable at tho balls that the cotillon has quit gone out of fashion.

At tha Yorkshire County ball at Willis's Rooms, the "costume quadrilles-" were the events of the evening. An attempt was made last season to popularize singing quadrilles," in whieh the dancers sans-the music to which they danced. But this involved too much of an intellectual effort, though several gets of quadrilles were published. Besides, they necessitated! rehearsals. Mrs.

Edward Soott had a concert in her Oros-venor-square house. Trebelli and Norman Neruda ware the stars. They shone until long after midnight These are but a few of the season's gayeties, and I propose now to collest from a reliable and technical reporter a few descriptions of the most notable drese which hsve been seen in Vanity Fair's most famous sulons. The Empress of Germany was dressed In mourning at the Salisbury dinner. She wore a splendid diadem of diamonds and pearl and diamond ear-rings and brooch.

The Duchess of Edinburgh was dressed in black velvet the Countess of Klanders in lavender-colored silks and satins. At the Countess Stanhope's reception the following dress notes'' are made by a lady reporter A white figured gauze dress was very stylish, niarte with tsblisr of perpendioulsr puffs, separat es Dy eaacaua or plna and myrtle-green satin ribbon. mixMl with 4 i puffa, caught op with bows to correspond. A eream-enlored drama had tha front entirely covered with fringe, with a vary fine netted beading worked Into patterns 0a tha right aide thia trimming turned over to show a lining of amethyst velvat. whii.

on the other tha front waa separated from the train by a cascade of amethyst velvet bows the bodlse snd train ware of eream brocade with panslea scattered over it, the bodioe vary low, tn arur, with a laee chemisette snd sleeves-pansles aud diamonds in tha hair. plum-eolored Corinthian valret was raised in front nn. eoat of suluhur and nlnm hma1a, th. alao of the brocade, was extremely long, and there waa sulnhar trimming on tha sleeves and bodice.

"A young married lady wore a white satin dress trimmed with deep 8panish lace looped with very large bows of black velvet intermingled with illrnr vhut- WUCBb and diamonds were worn in the hair, and su- pero cuamonas on toe neck: and low square bodice. The Misses Beaumont wore white dresses, with overdresses en of pink and bice brocsda. a handsome dress was one of clive satin, embroidered la a feathery pattern In shades of pink it opened ridtau, trimmed with white uiuuuo, over a petticoat ot pJa pink tulle with trails of bluah rosos with shaded velvet loaves Wreath of rosea faatonju! w4th UM- mond stars." In the "costume quadrille," gypsy costume ar in votrae. the oUokcm oarrvln tamborine and castanets.

The Torkshire notion Is to be repeated and developed.

Tha appol itrcent of a Keeelver is an act to do which tha eeart i lay wall heattate, bat, however unpleae-aat the da ly.

it ought to be at once perform! when tha aoart aeea, aa it plainly does in this rasa, that the same reaalt must ba reached in the and. By chapter 802 of tha Laws of 190. andar wi ich tha defendant is organized, the eorporatio must past Into the hands of a hMelrar whenever, in the Judgment of the court, it can no longer do 1 luslneas with safety, and that It cannot do ao la abnn tantly shown by the detailed report of tbe committee of its irtrer torn.

To each result the eosrt seni ot be a party.

It is said that tha present proceed! is Irregular Decease it Is cot based npon a report tha Superintendent of I nan ranee. Whatever force this point may poaseas, mu-tt be made in the action snd by a party to it. It is not for creditors ot the det'i ndant against whom an action haa bean Instituted ai relief sought to sppear therein by courtesy and I Dterpoae objections to tha form of proceedings, it has not been held that an original action eana bo brought by the Attorney-Oeneral to wind in Insolvent corporation when sueh loas not obiect, and whan the Superintendent ol Insurance oaa, in fact, concurred In the propriety it the action of the Attorney-Oeneral, arid tha court las before it a substantial compliance with the statat tha action of the Insurance iMpartment coinciding in the need of a Receiver. The 'urt, for these reasons thns hastily stated, must aet, ind aan only protect creditors by the selection et proper person to discharge the trust of Receiver. In two publtshed opinions, (IcArdle vs.

Barry. 5( Howard. 97; People vs. Third-A venue Saving ink, 60 Howard, 22.) and also in the mat. tar of th Atlantis Lite Insurance Company, tha Judge holi is that this term hss decided that no officer or IHr ot an insolvent corporation should act aa Its i teeeiver.

Mo good reason for departing from this rule can be seen justifying the appointment of i r. Barrow, tha President or Mr. Barden-burgh, a Director, of tba defendant. It is true that thei la no evidence before me showing that either of these gentlemen has done any aet isting the assets of the eompsny or endangering its resources bnt It is true that the aopotnt-ment of ther would develop great feeling on the part of th policy-holders, who regard the action of both aa contrary to their interests, and It Is also true that a Kect irer must of necessity rasa upon tha managemi nt of the eompany under ita present direction, a duty which one of its members manifestly oi ight cot to perform. In the selection of tha Receiver named In the order, Mr James D.

Fish, a gentleman has been hosen. who, in the execution of hit duties aa sneh, 111 have no peeullAT interest tn serve, or entangUni alliances surrounding him. If he fails to act wisel' promp'ly, and economically, then the most emli ent financial men of New-York City, who recommei ded his appointment are mistaken. In ielr judgment snd the court has been unwittingly led into error No sueh result will follow, as we believe, and the ec nduet of the gentleman named In the execution of i somewhat similar trust Is slso high evt- a uvuot vi uie Htneas ok qls present appointment.

CRICKET AT BOBOKEX. A GAVE BXTWEEX TBI ST. OKOkOU AXD THI TOCKO AXXRICAS. Th first inning of the match between elevens of the St. George's Cricket Club, of this City, sad tha Young America Cricket Cab.

of Philadelphia, waa played yesterday on the grounds of the former at Hoboken. Th result waa daddedly iu favor ef the Phllaoalphis cricketers, who will, in sU probability, gsia an easy victory to-day. Pew spectators were present. Au hour was exhausted after the time fixed for the opening of tha gaoie by tha St. George's Oa in getting together aa eleven, some of the best players, including Cept.

goutter. being absent on basiaess. They finally turned out what proved to be an unequal, and, in many respects, a weak team. Acting Capt. Vlueran won the toss for tha Inning, and.

at 1 f0 P. sent W. Banco and J. R. Moore to the bat to defend the wieketa against ths bowling of Dan" Newhall and alter Clark.

Ths jadicionsly-played "full pitch" balls of ths Philadelphia bowl, irs puzzled the DragoivMayera. aad Banes soon rewroa on a uurK-egg, leaving aloor to go out for 10. Fair batting waa dona after that by tha ma- iority of tha St George's men, and particularly by Mitchell, the young Irish member, who sent one ball over tne feaee for six In fine style and added to his soore by a few others of leas effectiveness. The team completed their inning with tha meagre score of 43. Capt.

George Newhall. of the Toung Americas, afteT a brief rest, sent his brother "Dan" and A. Bassler to faee tha bowling of E. Sprague and Mr. Moeran, who performed their work in a very creditable manner, liaasler went out tor 4 but his associate remained for 33.

thirl es Newhsll snd Walter Clark batted against the bowling of J. E. Sprague and F. Heussllng. Their score was 1 and 9 rwapeettvely.

Robert Newhall gave a magnificent exhibition of batting against tha best bowler of tbe ft. Oeorpes, H. Campbell, and waa finally bowled out for 54. The remaining members of the Philadelphia eleven did some fine batting, with the exception ot Wright aad I'ease. Splendid fielding by several and remarkable bowling by Campbell characterised tha work of tba home eleven, despite which, however, the score of the Young Americas no up to 175.

DORKJfrS. At a meeting of the Medico -Legal Society, held last evenitg, a paper wa. read by Dr. Charles A. Doremus concerning tha chemistry of the Cobb-Bishop poisoning esse.

The paper was prepared by Dr. Doremus and Dr. Rudolph A. Witthans, who had been employed as chemical experts for the, State, and whose observations wero based on the analyses which they had made with the view of detecting poison in the bodies of Mrs. Bishos and Mr.

Cobb. After a general statement of ths ease. Dr. Doremns said there being no sufficient natural causa to account for Cobb's death an analysis was ordered, and on investigation a large' quantity of absorbed arsenic was discovered. Tbe body of Bishops wife was then exhumed, after It had been buried for five months.

and a quantity of absorbed arsenic wss also discovered. In -Mrs. Bishop's case, the body, notwithstanding the length of time that it had remained In the earth was in a good state of preservation i the viscera were also woli preserved, snd the doctors were nnsble to determine any cause of death. Dr. Doremns laid down the proposition that the poison which waa found in the stomach had nothing to do with death and that the caur was to be looked forln the poison which was absorbed into the deeper-seated organs.

In cases of suspected poisoning, the most Important parts for examination were the liver, kidneys and urine, while tha stomach should also ba preserved, as well as a piece of musele. and. under certain conditions, the brair. It was also Important that vomiied matter should be preserved, for In cases in which the defense mad- tha polut tbat the poison was introduced after death, it became vital testimony. It was necessary to ue prepared to meet every line of defense and to eliminate every source of error Dr.

Doremns next dealt with the purely chemical and physiological aspects of the ease, explaining the tests which had been used, and showing the purity of the ehemlcalt employed. The result waa hi said, to demonstrate the Indisputable presence of arsenic. Besides the arsenic they bad found, be said, a small quantity of bismuth and copper in the ease of Cobb, and a small quantity of eopoer in Mrs. Bishop The bismuth had been administerd to Cobb as medicine, and It contained some arsenic but nothing at all approximate to tba quantity which the analysis had discovered. Ha also explained the presence ot strychnia.

Dr. Doremus, in tbe course of hla paper, called the attention of his audienee to several specimens of the arsenlo which had beep found in the two bodies. OOVLD HURTS AS OLD FABTXEB, A DICISION AGAINST HAAR A IN THE OOCLD-CONNIR CASK. The firm of Haur hankers and brokers. In AY all-street, was foreed into bankruptcy in Ooto-ber, 1878, In a somewhat singular manner.

On ths 11th pf that month ths head of ths arm bought gold heavily, and gave orders for ths sals by various brokers of large blocks of Western Tnlon snd other stock. When Haar wss called on to meet bU be failed to do ao, snd gave as a reason for bis fal.ure that the firm of Wtiliam Beiden A for whom said he acted, had refused to furnish him with the necessary tueans. Ha said that on the af ternoon of Oct. 13. William BeUen gave him mJ th and sale, he (had made, and cautioned him against allowing the other operators ou the (Street tot loam tn whom he was acting." Haar could not prove his story to be true, and.

on the assertion of William fcelden and his partner that they had never given him the orders ue bad execnted, he was expelled from tha btock Ex-hange. Hoar Co. made an assignment to Frederick Meyer, who began a suit agaitst William P-elden Co. to recover .57.000 in-nt firm tn taa operation of Oct.

He haa all this tint den hi ews aooklng aad waaky lag and mending, aad through ladustry aad eoaomy has at last placed himself la peaitioa become public benefactor.

The history ef th man, borne down as ha has been by frequent fiH severe calamities, aud of bis aobls tkit of select volusae to th Publie l4rrr-ar worth her recounting. First, ss to ths books. About twe weeks ago, Mr. Tickers received a note written la a plain, though Saimcwhat cramped hand, and signed John iling. whieh stated that the writer would prceeat to the Publie Library, if they were desired, his collection of about 1,000 books.

A visit wss made te the writer's room, and It wa arranged that the books, which were then peckeu ia trunks aad boxes, aad almost filled tha room, should be removed to the Publie Llbisry the following dsy. But en ooU-tionwaa Imposed by the giver, namely, tbat tbe annotationa wnich ba had mads la pencil on tha margins of favorite volumes should be sraaed beioro tbey were plaeed for the use ot tba public. Tate requeet being strictly complied with, although it obliterate from tha collection what would have proved of lasting Interest sn indication of tba mental bent and Insight of tha donor. Mr. Vtr.kers svs that the eolleetioa haa beau made with ears and Jadgment, and that it la much more valuable than an average private library ot the same number of volume.

It laeladea hla. tory and phlli.aopliy, soma of tha beat specimens from both ancient and modern literature, biography, books of travel, legal and medical works, enlenillie treatises, public documents, books of general reference, religious works, volumes of the beat maga-tines. a variety of school books, and au oeeastoaal volume of poetry or fiction. There are several very old volumes, oaa a natural history, bearing the imprint of London. lr)J3." The books are all 1 good condition, and are of a rharactcr.lba.

renders tbe collection a valuable addltioa to the Publie Library. The work ct cataloguing them is now going on, and ths ext number of volumes tn th collection haa not yet been aaeerH'ned. It will preSabiy, however, slightly exceed 2, 5O0. or more than many as were promised In the note to the Librarian. Tbe history of the collection and of Ita recent owner Is full of interest John King, though still newsboy, and the emcient of tba L'aton, is now 39 years old.

Hia pleasant eosat-enanee la familiar on Fourth-street, where he etasda. papera in hand, and supported by a crutch, from clock until 8 o'clock In the morning and from 4 until 6 in tba afternoon. Ha waa a farmer boy by birth, and had fate bean kinder, he would no doubt hare atlU been a tiller or the soli la Caaa County Mteh-wbrre his fattier a family atUl reeiUe. But at the age of 17 a kick on tha left thigh crippled htm tor life. For three yaara he Lobbied around on era tehee, when he was attacked by rheumatism, and his llmba so drawn up that he could get around only by crawling on his hands sad knees.

One day. while crawling about the room, he struck his right knee aa-ainrt a sharp object, waloli. with the help of a blundering surgical operation, stiffened the limb for life. Both legs were now aseleea. and for five yaara the poor boy waa bedriddea.

It waa danng tula time that the paaaloa for reading wss begotten. There were but books in the selghbornood. Whet there were he greedily devoured, and mentally resolved that should It erer be la his power he would have a b.g library ot ahoice books which al- ouid be all hla own. tha aa Isf "71 la a. a.

I a ui u.a ui ana lor three years bobbied about tiie house, but eonld do no work. Then hn went to Detroit, and In tne Hummer of 18G8 curs to Cine nueli, a total stranger en.i a cripple for life In both legs. A situation waa obtained at Npenne BrotBera tobaeeo factory but hardly a fortnight had elapse before ha was taken down with the small-pox, which kept him In the pest house fcr six months. He states thai during this period his courage drooped, and La eared very llttia, if life was to be ao hard, to longer live. After leaving the peat-bouse he went back to the factor? to work, acd began living ln tha little, roughly-funifahed room in the building which is still his home.

The work be had in the tobaeeo factory waa such aa is commonly dona by children, and $3 a wees wan all he could make by the greatest Industry, it was with difficulty that life could be sustained In that time of high prices on ao small a sum. and King's neeasattles soon drove him to look for other work, ion he became a newsbov. In the new vocation Ufa became easier. "Tbe work was lighter and the rewards mora generous, acd he conceived the idea of layli.g up money enough to boy htm a home and a library. To that and for 10 years every energy waa bent.

Whenever he saw a bock that ha thcught valuable, aad that could bought cheap, he bought It. 8ome of them fas read ln his leisure hours, and others he laid away for tbat far olT time, when la his own little home, and with euongh to live on, he could sn downf or a bl; read. The 10 year we have referred to saw but one interruption to his work as newsboy, and tbat cams ln the shape ot another misfortune. A blind ttan. who was a broom-maker, prevailed npon him to go to Sablna.

Clinton Caunty, this Mate, and with his savings, which thn amounted to $50. boy a broom-machine, which he claimed they eould operata together with a handsome profit to both. This waa dona, but ln a short time tbe firm failed $150 ln debt. King then came back to Cincinnati, and in time sent back to feablna the full amount of the claims ther existing against and the blind man. His earnings were sbont $1 dsy, and up to the time ot the Adas fallore things went along qnite smoothly By thst failure, however, JriOO was lost, over snd shove whst he is likely to get back.

1 his sum was half the savings of 10 earn, which had been so religiously aet apart for a littlo boms snd Dig read ln his old age. The loss of so much money, wh'le It did not disconrace Mm. made tne realization of bis hopes much mom uncertain, and at the very beat plaeed them many years further In the future. The building ln whleb be lires Is an old rookerv. In which there are 5 families.

The thought occurred to King after hia loss by the Adae failure that the building might burn down some night, and his books with it. He bad always lctended to give the books to tho Public Library at his death, and now that death was likely to come before he could read them at his leisure, as he bad desired, be concluded to make the donation to the library safe by giving them to it now. King reserved a couple of hundred volumes for bis further use. thonch he proposec to eventually give these also to the library. A glance at tbe works revealed something of his character and taste.

Among them were Butler's 'Hudibras." Brown on the "Natural Equality of Man." Wilton's Amerirsn Histotr," One Hundred Years of Progreaa In tha I ulled States, The Great 1 ndustriea of tha nlted States," Lorenzo Dow's complete works.
