CEsAR's WIFE.-Most of our readers have
heard the saying 'a soldiers bravery, like CAESARS
wife, should be beyond suspicion" The follow
ing, which we take from the life of that great Ro
man, recently published, will explain the alusion
"Clodus of the men whose names oc-
cur most frequently in the histories of those times
man who disgraced his birth and his talents by
the lowest personal vices, and by the PROSTITUTION
of his great wealth and eloquence TO the worst pur-
poses of sedition.
This Clodus had passion for Pompea CAESARS
wife. Pompeia was closely watched by Caesars
mother, Aurelia. In the year when Caesar was
prator, favorable occasion for their meeting seem
ed to Offer in the celebration of the mysteries of
the Good Goddess, which was held at CAESARS
house, and attended only by women. The Ro-
mans allowed no man-nOt even the master of the
house-to be present at these mysteries; even the
pictures and images of men covered. The
absence of men, the music and dancing, and other
entertainments, afforded the opportunity for young
female slave of Pompeia to admit Codius, 4 beard
less youth, disguised as female musician.
As he was afraid of exciting suspicion by re-
naming alone, he wandered through the darker
parts of the apartments, where he was met by one
OF Aurelias slaves, who put some questions to him.
taking him for woman. His voice betrayed him /;
and the affrighted slave ran to the company CRYING
that there was man in the house. Immediately
Aurella pnt stop to the mysteries, yelled the
statues and symbols of the divinities, closed the
gates and searched every part of the mansion with
torches. Clodius was found in the chamber of the
slave that admitted him. All the women gathered
around him and drove him from the house. Ca-
sar Immediately divorced Pompea.
Both Aurelia, Caesars mother, and Julia, his
sister, related the story. When Cesar was called
upon for his testimony, he replied with his charac-
teristic caution, that he knew nothing about it
Being asked, ''why, then, have you divorced Pom
peia 2" he replied, "Because Caesars wife should
be not only free from crime, but beyond suspicion
