AN AFFLICTED EMPRESS.
KlIsnlMtth of Auatrlu, Who I Said to II
IlliltllO.
Vienna, Juno 8. A clean Bwopt
street, a compact mass of humanity wait
ing patiently in tho blinding white sun
shlno, a royal advance guard of glitter
ing cavalry, a silenco only broken by tho
patter of hoofs, tho jlnglo of spurs nud
tho rattle of sabers, then twelve men,
covered with gold laco and medals, on
ced black horses with yellow trimmings,
guarding a royal opon baroucho, In which
sat the beautiful empress of Austria.
Tho galloping horses gavo but a swift
glimpse of tho noble and patrician faco
of the most beautiful queon in tho world,
as she sat bowing and smiling to her
people, who brokoout into cheers bo loud
that tho very air pulsated with them as
tho vision of their beloved empress In her
black dress and yellow flowers flashed by.
This ovation was rotated every day
and every hour whenovor tho lovely
queon made her appearance In public,
for years, until ono day last April, when
a close carriage with drawn blinds was
swiftly whirled away through quiet
strocts to tho station on the way to Wlcs-
badon. In it, hidden from publio gazo,
sat tho shrunken and stricken specter of
tho empress whoso beauty and graco
have been a world's marvel, and Instead
of tho pomp and glitter of military es
cort sat three strong keepers, for tho
unfortunate empress of Austria, who has
been so unhappy a wife and so wretched
a mother, is now hopelessly insane. Tho
curso of her houso has fallen upon her
just ns it has upon twenty-soven of her
family within a century, and her villa in
Wiesbaden will bo guarded by pollco
and soldiers, just ns has been her homo
in Dornberg over slnco her malady began
to manifest Itself.
Some years ago tho empress took an
intense dislike to tho royal palaco in
Vienna, which U a gloomy, prison llko
placo, and whenever It bocamo necessary
to remain hero sho nover slept nt night,
but kept her maids about Iter tho wholo
night long with brilliantly lighted rooms,
as sho Imagined she saw specters.
At Dornberg, about six or eight miles
from hero, tho jwlace is surrounded with
beautiful gardens, lnwns and trees and
tho situation charming, as it stands upon
a hill overlooking a lovely valley. At
this delightful placo tho empress was ap
parently as happy as a child, and could
bo seen any sunny day walking or riding
about tho neighborhood, or playing with
tho do;;s and the llttlo children who
gathered around. Her favorito horse
was a thoroughbred gray, and when she
was on horseback sho was a plcturo of
grace and symmetry, and her feats of
horsemanship are world renowned.
From the tlmo when she came to the
throne, a girl of 10, until slnco tho death
of her son, tho Archduke Rudolph, sho
has been peerless in regal beauty and
adored by her subjects, whoso lovo for
hor was the only sunshlno of her ox
Istcnco, but her eccentricities havo al
ways been as marked as her simple good
ness to every one with whom she came
In contact.
Now, it Is all over with her, and Iter
condition leaves no hope that sho will
over regain her mental balance.

ENURAVINO A "GREENBACK."
A Hrlrf IWplutmllon nt the Vnrlom rroe
imiMM. hy Which the Work I Done.
Ho vngtin Im tho general Idea as to how a
Imnk iintu I umdo Hint wo propose to oxplnln
brlully the vnrlou processes it goes through
More It l Ituiuvd ns n part of tho "money of
the reiiliu." Niyliig, by wny of Introduction,
tlmt this country loads mo world la nnnic
note engraving. Unfortunntely, tho first
consideration In making a bank note is to
prevent IniiI men from making a counterfeit
of It, and tlivrvfaro all tho noUs of n certain
lenoniluntlnn or vnluo must bo oxact dupli
cates of each other. If thoy wore engraved
by hand this would not bo tho enso, siul, an
other thing, hand engraving Is mora easily
counterfeited thnn tho work donohy tho proc
tnses which ware going to describe
Kvory ueto Is priutod from a steel pinto, in
tho preparation of which many persons tako
part. If you will look nt a llvo dollar "green
back" yon will seo n plcturo in tho center; a
small (Mirtrnlt, called n vlgnotto, on tho loft,
and In ench of tho upMr cornors a not work
of flno Hum with a dnrk ground, ono of thorn
containing the letter V nnd tho other tho flg
11 ro ft. Tluwo four virts are mndo on sepa
rata plates. To make a vlgnotto it Is noces
snry llrst to make a lni-Ro drawing on pnjier
with great caro, and a ilngucrreotyo Is then
taken of tho dia ing tho oxact slzo of tlie
engraving desired. Tho dnguerreotypo Is
then given to tho engraver, who lines n stool
point to mark on it all thu outlines of tho
picture, Tho pinto Is Inked and a print
taken from it. While tho Ink Is still damp
tho print Is laid face down on a steel plate,
which has been softened by heating it rod
hot nud letting It cool slowly. It Is then put
In a press and nn exact copy of tho outline is
thus mndo on tho steel plate. This tho en
graver flnMics with his graver, n tool with
n three cornered olnt, which cuts a clean
lino without leaving a rough edge.
Now, this pinto Is used for making other
plates It Is "uover used to print from. It
must Iramado very hard, and thlsisdono by
heating it nud cooling It quickly. A llttlo
roller of softened steel is then rolled over it
hy n powerful machine until its surfneo has
been forced Into all tho lines cut Into tho
plate. The outlines of tho vignette nro thus
transferred to tho roller hi raised lines, and
after thu roller Is hardened It 1 used to roll
over plates of softened steel and thus tunko
in them sunken lines exactly llko those In tho
pinto originally engraved.
Tho center plcturo Is engraved and trans
ferred to n roller llko tho vlgnotto, but tho
not work In thu uppor comers nnd also on
tho back cf tho note Is mndo by tho lathe.
This mnchino costs $.',000, a price that puts It
boyuuil the reach of counterfeiters, and its
work Is so perfect that It cannot bo Imitated
hy hand. Tho latho engraves tho net work
on softened steel, and tho llguro in tho middle
of It is then engraved by hand. It Is now
hardened nnd transferred to a roller llko tho
others.
The plates from which tho notes nro to bo
printed nro of softened steel nnd Inrgo enough
to print four notes nt once. Four engravings
of tho note must, therefore, bo mndo on it, nnd
this is done by rolling tho hardened steel roll
ers containing tho raised pictures over It iu
their nppropi Into plnces until tho pictures nro
pressed Into Its surface. Tho flno lettering
around tho border of tho note Is transferred
in thu samo way, but tho other tottering Is put
on by hand. This process saves n great deal
of tlmo and it secures absoluto uniformity in
tho four engravings on tho plate
Tho black pnrtsof tho nolo are printed first,
aud when tho Ink is dry tho green back is
printed, to Iw followed by tho red stamps and
numbers. It Is then signed and Issued. For
greater security ono jiart of tho noto Is en
graved and printed at ono placo nnd another
imrt nt another placo, when it Is scut to Wash
ington to bo Mulshed and signed.
Hut oven after nil this caro nnd all theso
safeguards many skillfully executed counter
feits havo been mndo aud issued, some of them
so good as to deceive tho most expert judges
of mouoy. NoW'York World.
Mmiuul of Amu, 1770-78.
Tho Idea that tho British troops In tho war
of indeieudcuco did uot tako aim, but llred
from tho position of "chargo bayonets," Is
simply prepostorous. At tho battle of Fonto
noy, iu 1745, Voltalro tolls that two English
battalions, tho Guards and Itoynl Scotch, met
faco to fnco a battalion of French Guards
aud a Swiss battalion at a distance of fifty
paces. Tho story Is well known. Tho En
glish colonel, Lord Charles Hay, cried out,
"Messieurs, tlrez." Thoy answered, "Wo nro
tho French Guard and nover (lro first."
Tho order to tiro was given by tho English,
and from a single discharge 309 men of the
Frouch Gunrd fell, of whom nlnoteen wero
officers. Of tho Swiss Guard nearly an oqual
number folL Assuredly theso English troops
took aim and llred from tho shoulder. The
story of their tiring from tho position of
"chargo bayonets" may havo arisen from
some norvous soldier having been seen to dls
cbfcrgo his pleco iu raising it to tho shoulder.
It was not uncommon for an engraver who
did not know his business well, to Invert the
plcturo, and so to represent troops as firing
from their left shoulder. Notes and Queries.
