Htye,re nil Coxyards In the Darkv

A medical friend of ours. who some years
since, visited Paris under circumstances most
invorabv to an cntree TO n most interesting Cir
cle--thnt cfthe survivors and ca dcrdnt suppor-
fers of the Empire" tells capital story as he
heard it related by the celebrated General EX-
celmans, one of fNapneon's poiadins. Twas at
a dinner party composed of some of the survi-
vors of Waterloo, few of their younger reIa-
tIveS, and the scion of m ex-king, on visit
from his home in America, and to whom our
friends owed his introduction TO the circle.
Some questions arose about bravery, when the
younger members Of the company were electri-
fled to hear the venerable and heroic Excelnans
gravely and seriously declare, that men nerc
co,oards in the dark The General smiled al
their expression OF dissent, remarked that it vas
''vcry like youth" and proceeded to tell The fs-
lowing anecdote in support of hls strange de.
claratlon.
There was young hot-head in me Empcnnr's
service, who. burning for action, and his duties
at the time aiiording no opportunity. a, last re-
solved to firht duel, ard, accordingly, choo-
sing to construe some remark or other Of an old
er and superior off Ger into an insult, challenged
| HIM. The old scatter, waving all considerations
OF rank, agreed to meet the young man, but on
| the following unusual terms. The time should
be night, the place a room-in opposite corners
rf Nhich they were to stand. The second, ha-
wing placed their men, were to withdraw out
side of it, taking the candles ruth item The
word should be given from without, when he
who had the first fire should discharge his weap.
on, and the seconds bearing the lights should
immediately rush in!
These strange conditions were accepted, tho
time arrived, and the seconds placed the parties
as agreed upon; withdrawing immediately anl
leaving their men in the dark. The word VS.
given, the fire was heard, the door was re open
ed, and there stood the elder OF the two ; b1't
upright in the corner, his adversary's ball ia
wing entered the wall 50 close to his head 'llt
the escape seemed little less than miracurns
1t was now the old soldiers time to fire (;
they were again left in the dark, the worl wa.
again given from the outside, and, in>tan,anc-
ously with the discharge, the seconds rushed
IN to hnd the challenger PROSTATE upon tho
iloor- nor harieg get rccorcrcd himself from
his trick 10 aroid The LaR, W ich, on exam a.
,ion. it was found. must have killed him.
The yonng man was covered with confusion.
and the seconds were oyerwhelm NC him with
expressions OF their scorn, when the vett ran
stopped them.
'No' 81 fast my young friends, SAID he, you
will grow wiser. Wuere DO you suppose Ives
al the first fire ! On my hands ana knees in
the corner, but, ma fol! was up quicker than
he Par dieu, NeSsic1rS, ice are all coW.
ards in the dark''
1t was afterwards whispered to our friend.
that the story was an actual fact, and that the
elder ot,he parties was no other than the brave
warrior EXcelmans, himself

A PSALM OF LIFE.
ny HENRY w. LoNGFELrow.

ny HENRY W. LoNGFELLow.
Tell me not. in monrniul numbers,
Life is but an empty dream
For the soul is dead that slumbcrs,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real Life is earnest
And the grave is not its goal
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken ofthe soul.
Not enjoyment and not sorrow,
Is our destined end OF way;
But TO act, that each tomorrow
Find us farther than to-day.
Art is long. and Time is ileeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave.
Still, like muiiled drums, are beating.
Funeral marches to the grave.
In the worlds broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life;
Re not like dumb, driven cattle
3e a hero in the strife
Trust no future howc'er pleasant
Let the dead Past bury its dead
Act, - act in the living Present,
Heart within and God o'erhead
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind MS
Footsteps on the sands of Time.
Footsteps, that perhaps another,
Sailing DER life's solemn main,
a forlorn and shirwrecked brother.
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us, then, be up and doing,
With heart for any fate;
Still achieving still pursuing,
Learn 10 laborand to wait.
