LADY FLORENCE BAKSB , A Talk With a Famous and Fearless Traveler , The Wife Who Accompanied Kr Husband Through DeiorU nnd. Dangers , * D Francisco Kxixmlncr. "I nm sorry that Sir Samuel Baker annot sco you to-dny , " was the re- panso of a lady to an Examiner re- > orter who was yesterday directed to ho rooms in the I'alacp Hotel occu- lied by that distinguished traveler ml his wife , the no less fatuous Lndy inker. "Lady Baker , I presume ? " "Yes ; won't you bo seated ? Sir Samuel is confined to his room from > n attack of bronchitis contracted in bourd the City of Peking. Wo In- ndvcrtcntly loft the port-hole of our tatcroom open and ho has been quito 11 over since. " "Then , I suppose , you have not had nuch of an opportunity to look around ho city ? " "Nono nt all. Of course ho can't ; o out , and I do not care to , ithout lim. " "Tho restraint must bo irksome to ono so used to moving about. " "Oh , decidedly so. Hero wo have ) eon detained in our rooms fora week. To bo euro , every attention has been cindly offered us , for which wo nro very grateful. Wo have received a argo number of invitations" nnd to confirm this , the sonbo'aovo ' JHstthcn wandering toward the centre-table saw n number of formal looking envelopes iddrcssed "Sir Samuel Baker , " and in Jio card case the cards of sbnio of our well known and wealthy citizens. Be sides these , scattered over the table , ivoro n number of the curiosities of .ravel . , a long dagger , in n quaintly- carved case , and other queer articles , evidently picked up in China or Japan , ho Inst places visited by the distin guished couple. A MONTH'S VISITATION. "But , " continued Lady Bnkor , "wo lave not yet been able to signify our iccoptanco of them , Wo have to take t easy , for there's no use contending against bronchitis , although Sir Samuel , like all men , can't content dinsclf to remain as quiet as ha should. " This was said with a smile , which led the reporter to suppose lint , notwithstanding Sir Samuel's ' rebellious disposition , ho wan not so very hard to got along with. " "May I ask how long you will ro- nain in California , and what places , -ou intend to visit ? " "Certainly , We expect to remain icro until August , and will visit all : ho principal places of interest. But : ho duke of Athol , an old friend of ours at homo , where wo were surpris ed and pleased to meet hero , tolls us : lmt there is not very much to see liero , " this with an interrogative raisinp of the eyebrows. The reporter disloyally but truth fully acknowledged that the Pacific coast docs not contain nil the interest ing sights of the world , nor oven a majority of them , but timidly suggest ed Yosemite. "Oh , yes , wo will sco Yoscmito. The duke of Athol has gone there now. But wo don't believe that every thing can bo seen in a flying visit. From hero wo go to the salt lakes ( Great Salt lake ) . I expect to . bo greatly interested thoro. " "You will probably bo disappointed , is few visitors over get to know any thing of the family histories of the Mormons. " "Yes , that is very prbbablo. The duke of Athol was disappointed him self. Ho said ho wont to their taber nacle and among their pepplo as much as possible , but saw nothing of parti- culiar interest. But it was n grcal thing to build up such a fertile coun try , as I am assured it is , whore was formerly a desert. Then wo will go to Rock Creek , for Sir Samuel wants to hunt in the Rocky Mountains and kill some grizzly bears. Wo have 30H10 Enclish friends there who Imvo invited us to visit them , but say not to como before August , on account of the flies. May bo you know them. Their name is . " LADY HAKKH'H KXPEKIENCES. The reporter confessed that ho did not know the persons named , and ask ed where Rock crook is. "Why , it is in Colorado. Wo will then go to Now York , nnd start for liomo in November. " Lady Baker talked freely and in a most interesting manner of the various expeditions upon which she accompa nied Sir Samuel Baker. That to dis cover the sources of the Nile , nnd i ! possible moot the Spoke and Grnni expedition , seemed to her the ono ol the most varied and startling experience rionco , "Wo do not want over to go upon another of that kind , " she said. "II was fitted out by Sir Samuel entirely at his own expense , and no ono car conceive from reading his account o : it ( 'The Albert Nyanzn1) ) of the many trials wo endured , and you woulc hardly boliuvo it all , should I tel" you , The route chosen by Speko and Grant direct from Zanzibar is mucl easier , trade being carried on fron that point with the interior. Wo mol Capts. Spoke and Grant at Condole ere ro ( February , 1803) ) , after they had discovered the lake they named Vie toria Nyanza , in honor of the queen. Wo gave thorn supplies , nnd c6ntinue < on into the interior , although we Imc great opposition from every ono guides , interpreters , and especially the slave-trades. Wo then discoverei the Albert Nyanza. 'Nynnis' is a nnmo applied to nil African lakes , A JIODIhT IIKIIOINK. Lady Baker spoke of this great expedition podition in such a modest , .quiet manner nor , that ono listening to her who dii not know that the result of this expedition podition was the final discovery o the third great tributary and source o the Nile , would have supposed i merely u jaunt through the country sidp , In iho preface to the work describing scribing the journey , Sir Samuel Ba ker says ; "A veil shall be thrown over many scenes of brutality that I was forced to witness , but which I will not force upon the reader ; neith er will I intrude anything that is not actually necessary in the description of scones that unfortunately must bo pasted through in the journey now before u . Should anything offend the sensitive mind , and suggest the nnfitneea of the situation for a wo- nan's presence , I must beseech .my air readers to reflect that the pil- ; rim'a wife followed him , weary and ootBoro , through all hu difficulties , cd , not by choice , but by devotion , nd that in time ot misery and tick- ess her tender care a\ed his life mid irospered the expedition.1 It seems hardly possible when look- ng nt Lady "Baker s face to imagine liat this was said nearly twenty years go of hor. It is ft face that all who co it would unite in calling charming ; or is there any suggestion of care , or that travel-worn look that might > o expected. A clear complexion , ight eyes , beautiful teeth and wlnto orohcnd , rather higher tlmn woman's rdinarSly is , ' yol iiol too high , from hich the hair is brushed straight mck , giving the face a matroiily , igntfiod nir ; manners , quiet and , of ourso , ladylike , yet kindly ; speech. lint peculiar English accent which ultivntcd foreigners cam from long ntcrcourso with the English people ; ireciso , perfectly articulated and ilcasing , abounding in the best and iloarcst Anglo - Saxon words and ihrases. For Lady Baker is hot of Jnglish birth. If to speak of n lady's go were not nn impertinent suggvs * ion , Lady Baker's might bo guessed t what it actually is , for iho does Hot ook over thirty-two. She married lir Samuel , says n blojjiaphio notice f the latter , in 1800 and is his second vifc. HKll I.Ar > YSUll" I > U > H. As for her dresn , the society ropor- or of this paper would simply say hat she was dressed in that quiet , unobtrusive manner which so becomes adips-ncithcr rich , nor yet lacking n richness , nor encumbered with or- lamentation. The reporter asked jndy Baker what she thought about ho slave trade in Africa , and whether n her opinion Africa could over be undo inhabitable in any part by Europeans , and if the commercial in- crests of the country would ever bo 0 great as to warrant largo settle- nentf of Europeans. "About the slave trade , " she said , 1 think it will bo broken up. You enow Sir Samuel undertook it ( in omninnd ol the khcdh'c's forces in .809) ) and wo thought ho had sue- iooded. Col. Gordon tried after him > ut I suppose it is n bad now as over. . ' do not believe tin efforts of the khedive - dive are more than half-hearted. " "Probably ho gnts a percentage of ho gains. " "No , oh no , I do not think that. Clio trouble lies with the people thorn- elves. They are n lazy , shiftless set , , nd worth nothing except as warriors. They plant just enough corn and what else they need to carry them hrough a single year , and if thnro is i drought they dib of staivation , " "You mean the people south of Egypt ? " ALONO THE EQUATOU. "Oh , yes , south of Abyssinia. You snow wo were almost as far down as : ho line of the equator. The country s very unhealthy , and I doubt whoth- Europeans will ever inhabit it in laago lumbers , nt least uot the parts wo visited. " Changing the conversation , the re porter asked them about their numer ous other voyages. i "Really , " was the renly , "wo have ; ot so used to going JJhnt it seems strange for usto reinam'at homo. Af ter the expedition against'tho slave- traders , wo returned homo to resl awhile. The first message wo- re ceived was from your American Geographical graphical society , ' 'inviting us tovisil America , and offering to pay all pur expenses. It was n very kind offqr , ind ono wo wished to accept , as wo Imvo always had a curiosity to see America ; but then again , wo wanted to rest. Besides , Sir < Samuel 'ishoi to sco something of his children. When the English took possession ol Cyprus , Sir Samuel said , 'Co io , wo will see Cyprus. " Wo wont there , and that book is the result ( pointing to Sir Samuel's workman Cyprus , recently cently published , whicli.layupon the table ) . J had a great'-desire o see the Holy Land , BO from Cyprus wo trav eled to Jerusalem , and from there to India , China , Japan , and so here. " "Will Sir Samuel publish any more books ? " "Probably not , but ho 'will ' write some letters on the subjcct of his last voyage. " . TUB CAULK HOAIi | A NOVELTY. "It is unfortunate , Lady Baker that you should bo detained so long it your room when a new field lies DO , fore you for inspection , " " 1 doom it quito a misfortune , Bui it can't bo helped. Then 1 Imvo heart so much about your city. 11 am toh' it has grown entirely within the last ' twenty-eight years , nnd 'that it is quito a Wealthy city. The first day wo were in town , and before Sir Samuel was taken ill , \vo took n ride on ono of those cars that go up-tho hill. It is certainly remarkable. " "I believe it is an English idea/ ' ' 'So ' I Imvo heard , hut I never snv cars run that way in Great. Britain But wo have our im'derground rail ways , which I think , nro bettor , fdr our carriages do not go bumping ovei our car-tracks. And then our horse are BO largo and fine and gentle. Wi nro invited to visit a L'cntloman's place in tho' country , where there are foij hundred horses , and I am told tha you can go > right up to them withou in the least scaring ( hem , and tlio ; will feed from one's hand. This i certainly remarkable. You must troa your horses well in this country Wo hone to visit this place next Tues day , " After some further conversation , and a cordial invitation to cull again when Sir Samuel Baker is well , the reporter withdrew , "DARN IT. " The Unfortunate Poiition of Bridegroom. They hnd a terrible time nt n wcdt ing up at Potaluma the other day , am which only goea to show how th smallest drawback will sometimes tak the stiffness out of the awullcst occa sion , It seems that the ceremony was very grand affair , indeed. Thor were eight bridesmnids.andthochurc was crowded from pit to dome , as th dramatic critics would nay. Bu when they got to the proper place ii the ceremony , and the groom boga fooling around for the ring , he discov ered that it'wasn't ' on hand. Alto the minister had scowled at the .mis erable wretch for awhile , . the Utte detected the magic circlet had slipptx through a hole in his pocket an < worked into hia boot. Ho common atcd the terrible fact in n whisper to 10 bride , who turned deadly pale , nd was only kept from fainting by 10 reflection thnt they would incvita- > ly cut-lho rings of her satin corsage n case she did. "Why dont'tyou produce the ring ? " hisporcd the bride's big brother , oarsoly , and feeling for his pistol , lidcr the impression that the miser- bio man was about to back out. "I' can't. It's In my boot , " ex- lained the groom under his breath , lis very hair meanwhile turning red ith mortification. "Try and fish it out , somehow uirry up ! " mumbled the minister be- lind hia book. "I'll try , " gasped the victim , who ns very stout ; and ho put ono foot n the chancel mil , pulled up his rousers let ' ? and began making upas- lodie jabs' for the ring with his Wro nger.
