BONAPARTE'S WOUNDS.

Napoleon showed me the marks of two
wounds, .one very deep cicatrice above the
left knee, which he said he had received in his
first campaign of Italy, and it was ofso serious
nature, that the surgeons were in doubt wheth
er it might be ultimately necessary to amputatc.
He observed that when he was wounGed, it was
always kept secret in order not to discour-
age his soldiers. The other was on the toe, and
had been received at Eckmuhl "At the Siege
of Acre." continued he, "a shell thrown by
Sydney smyth fell at my feet Two soldiers
who were close by, seized and closely embra-

PRAIRIE EENCE.

Pcs anl nll fence, OF boald fence with posts
sci m HE ground can never DO made to be durs-
BILE upon our prairie land. The soil is so rich
deep and loose, that IN the spIlng OF the year the
posts will be continually ION the lean In my
opinion, the best way to make such fence Is to
use posts with heavy butts saved square and set
on the ground, and make the fence crooked, like
the common rail fence. 1t Will be much more
durable, aud the loss Of the land IN the fence cor
ncrs is small item where land Is so plenty aud

are much troubled TO make soap come but there
IS no art and mystery or luck about the business.
The whole secret consists IN having strong lye--
and 1t must be strong. If the ashes are clean,
the soap will come without using lime. llrhe
ashes are made from dirty chips, or burnt upon n
clay hearth, lime in the leach al the rate Of one
quar, to the barrel of ashes, may be used to great
advantage. ltIlme cannotbe procured, boil down
