PRINCE BISMARCK.
Prince Bismarck has got back most of his health, and the whole of his grim gaiety of spirit at Kissengen, He was sted, followed, and flattered by the fair box to a most embarassing degree. The young unmarried ladies, to whom everything is permitted, were most of all mprtm in their attention. A story is told of a rather fast young girl, who was determined to obtain a glance, if nothing more, from the stern Chancellor at'the ball giren in his honor, and approaching him as near as possible, she asked him to fasten- her bracelet, which she had purposely loosened. But the Chancellor, "adamant" as well as "iron," shook his headend pointing to a young aide-de-camp who was standing near, said, without moving a muscle of his countenance, "My sight is not good enough for that office, but good enough to see that you are not so ' handsome as your mother," and he ' t'urnod away, leaving .the poor girl \ greatly mortified. ]
