Kings out of business are usually an une. happy set, and the deposed king of Oude, who held sway in India before England took possession, appears to be no exception to the rule, The palace and grounds provided for deposed monarch by the British Government extend one mile on the river's bank in Calcutta, with a' width of about one-eighth of a mile, There is the main palace nearly in the centre. with smaller palaces elsewhere; there is a long line of magnificent staples ; there are a hundred or more small houses along the street side, occupied by the King's retalners, numbering 400 in all ; there are fountains and other fanciful structures on the grounds inside ; there is a large pigeon- house for the flock of more than a thousand of these birds, which are trained to fly in one direction and another as the keeper waves his flag ; there are walks, lawns, and gardens artistically laid out, with a wonder- ful show of ornamental. trees growing fruit, aud beautiful flowers. For a distance of a utile there is this exhibition of garden ¢ul- ture in varied forms of artistic skill and -| magnificent effects, The snake pagods fs & curipusity, Evefy veriely of poisonus rep-- tiles, hundreds of them are seen through the glass crawling and coiling themselves through every section of this curious stucture which heathen taste or ingenuity could de- vise. The King of Oude 1s really a prisoner of state, He is graated an allowance of $120,000 a year by the British Government He speds all that, and had runso deeply in debt a year ago that the Government came to the relief of its prisoner, granting him several th i pounds to liquid his liabilities, at the same time warning higjde- posed majesty that he must in future try to get along on his allowance of $356 dollars a day for the maintengnce ofhis regal estab- lishment. The ex-King is cousi a vanced in years, is said to be disconte) with his lot, is soured in temper,and do far as he dares do so exhibits the deep hatred he cherishes to Europeans and white people generally.
