The guests and their welcome will
form chapter in the romance of history,
which the men and women of the future
will read with anazcmemept. Let us
look at their antecedents., .a....
Louis Napoleon, was an exile from
infancy. = He had not the advantage of
a fathers care, and was the spoiled boy
of an unhappy mother, who, iu her, com
PEELED obscurity, sighed after court life.
He was tho second son of Louis Bona
partc--the younger brother of Napoleon
the Great-and Hortense, the dEugh-
ter of the divorced Empress, Josephine.
The father, the least ambitious and
most honest Of his race, the mother, as
fascinating in manner. and loftier in in
teliectzthan Josephine. The marriage
was coneocted by Josephine, in hope
that the offspring might satisfy her hus-
bands longing for a successor, and avert
the dismissal she afterward sustained
1t was as ll-starred in al else as it
failed in efFecting her desires. On the
steps of the altar, husband and wife
loudly proclaimed their mutual aver
sion, and invoked memories. of other
loves eternally to separate them. They
soon realized their awishes-they sepa-
rated. 80 L%s{ s"- T. zso7s ad7 =. o5

in the first months of her marriage, and

her by the husband of her mother to a

: Louis was about seven years old when
the allies visited Paris. Hortense had
delighted in the education of him and
his brothers; she wished to- remain.-
But she was compelled to depart, and
settled, with her children at Constance.

is worth being recorded. 3, -. !,

Taking His Rank

Among the Americans who attended
the late ball given at the Hotel de Vile,
Paris, was Jack Spicer, of Kentucky
Jack rushed the dress somewhat strong
and sported apaulettes on his shoulders
large enough to start four major gener-
ais in business. Jack was the observed
of all Observers, and got mixed up with
q party that his friends could not ac-
count for. Wherever the Marshals Of
France went, there went Jack; and
when the Marshals sat down, Jack did
the same, always taking the post Of hon.
or. The day after the ball Jack called
on his old acquaintance, Mr.. Mason, our
Minister to France, who started up
little conversation in the following man.
ncr: -..--.f ,-s --.-...-s
''I hear, Jack, you were at the ball

"Howl By virtue of my Office
They were marshals Of France, while I
am nothing else than q marshal Of the
Republic. I showed my commission
and took post accordingly"
"By right of your oficel What do
you mean?"
"Read that and see."
Here Jack presented Mr.. Mason with
Whitley brown paper, with seal big
enough for four-pound weight. org
"What in the name of Heaven is this?"

GONE GLASS MORE"

Stay, mortal, stay; nor needless thus
Thy sure destruction seal;
Within that cup there turks curse,
Which all who drink may feel;
Disease and death, forever nigh,
Stand ready at the door,
And eager wait to hear the cry
OF give me-one glass more.
Go, view that prisons cells,
Their pallid tenants scan
Gaze upon those earthly hells,
And ask when they began?
Had these atongue, Oh, man! thy cheek,
The answered crimson DER:
Had these tongue, they'd to thee speak,
And cry the-one glass more.
Behold that wretched female form,
An outcast from her home;
Bleach'd in nflliction's blighting storm,
And doom'd in want to roam:
Behold herr ask that pratter dear,
Why mother is so poor!
He'll whisper in thy startled ear,
Twas FATHERS one glass more.
Stay, mortal, stay-repent, return;
Reflect upon thy fate;
The poisonous draught indignant spurn
Spurn, spurn it ere TOO late.
Oh, fly the alehouse's ho.rid din,
Nor lnger at the door,
Lest thou perchance should sip again

The GILMANTos SNAKES AND THE CHARM.
ED GiRL.-The parents of the little girl, Ora.
line Jane Hill, who is said to have been
"charmed" by two black snakes, have chang.
ed their first determination, and are now ex-
bibting the child and snakes to n crowd at
Concord, N. II. On Saturday, they were
visited by thousands, by which some $500
were made. The editor of the Manchester
Mirror says
ave have seen them-the girl is very pref
ty, only six years old next month Only the
smaller snakes goes with them, and that is
four feet three inches and half long, and is
idolised by the girl. Her father informed us
last evening that when she sleeps now she
curls herself up like snake, incredible MS it
may seem. The father aud mother are pres
ent, to tell the story of the girls being fas
cinated by the snakes, and their effects upon
her. The girl has n wild look, and fears are
entertained that she will in time languish and
die, in consequence of the magnetic power
over her by the snakes"
The Concord Statesman, in noticing this
repulsive exhibition, says that "there are but
few people who can derive any satisfaction
from the spectacle, and it is to be regretted
that the child was not at first utterly cpt of
from its strange sympathetic attachment to
reptile.

BATTLE AMONG BEEs.-TtrriJle Slaugh
ter Of the Mrdders.-The Toledo (Ohio) Re.
publican relates the following MS having oc.
Cured, a few days ago, in that county:
"A new swarm of bees came out of their
paterna hive and gathered around their
Young queen, in the warm, sunlit atmosphere.
But, instead of going to some neighbouring
tree or shrub, and forming hanging cluster,
rs has invariably been the rule with all pre-.
dacessors with whom we have ever been
acquainted, they settled on hive and began
n murderous attack upon the peaceable in.
mates:
"The unsuspecting workers were taken by
surprise, and many of them were killed by
the invaders before they became fully arous-
I'd, when the conflict became quite obstinate.
The fact that most of the working bees of
the hive were out gathering honey gave the
new swarm all the advantage, and, though
the battle lasted all day, they finally triumph
ed. Thousands of dead bodies were dragged
TO the entrance and thrown on the ground
each hour"

THE CLAY MONUMENT
In the last number of tho Miners Jon,

In the last number of the Miners Journal
we find description Of the Clay Monument
at Pottsville, from which We learn that the
pillar will be composed of iron, and of the
Grecian Doric order of architecture, resting
upon granite base of two steps, placed in
an elevated position at the entrance of Potts
vile, npon n terraced walk, nine feet wide, of
conglomerate stone. The entire stone work
base of the column is fifteen feet in height,
composed of material taken from the noun
tains of the vicinity. The iron pillar was
cast in eight sections, each FIVE feet three
inches in height, and resting upon its fellow
beneath on inside flanges, bolted together
firmly. The total height of the cast iron
column is fifty.one feet, and the extreme
height from the lower portion of the base
sixty.six feet. The height of the steps above
the side walk in Centre street is seventy.
three feet so that the total height from the
Centre street sidewalk to the foot of the
statue is one hundred and twenty-four feet
The statue alone is fifteen fee in height
making the entire elevation from the street
level one hundred and thrty-niie feet. The
statue, which is by Robert Wool, of Phila.
deIphia, is the first colossal ironNcasting of
statuary kind ever executed in he United
States. The total cost of the monument will
be only between seven and eight thousand
dollars, the ground being a gilt fom John
Bannan, proprietor of the Miners Jurnal.-
The principle inscription on the stote base is
as follows:-"ln honor of Henry Gay, this
monument is erected by the citizens of
Schuykill county, and bequeathed b their
children; record of gratitude for hi ilustri-
Gus services, which brought peace, prosperity,
and glory TO his country; tribute pf admira-
ton for the virtues which adorned useful
life, and won for his imperishabe name the
respect and affection of mankind"
The dedication of the monument took
place the 4th of July, and was tho occasion
of grand civic and military parad,.

BUFFALO STAMPEDE.-A correspondent of
the Nebraskian, printed at Omaha city, on the
Missouri, opposite to Council Bluffs, writes
that an exploring party to which he was at
tached saw immense numbers of buffalo be-
tween Ash Hollow and Loupe Fork. The
valley and hills were black with them. On
the night of the 22d June, having encamped
on the bank of n creek in narrow valley,
about twelve o'clock they were alarmed by
the approach Of an immense herd of buffalo,
causing the earth to trembie beneath their
tread, as they came dashing down the valley
at full speed. The camp chanced to be di-
rectly in the path through which this army of
shaggy quadrupeds were making their rapid
march, and it was with extreme difficuty-by
dscharging of rifles and revolvers in quick
succession-that our travellers succeeded in
turning them from their direct course, thus
saving their own lives and the lives of their
horses. They succeeded in shooting several
as they passed, among which was n fine fat
ycaring, some choice outlets of which served
them as ;ood on their journey. Some idea
may be formed of the number of buffalo in
this vast herd from the fact, that though run.
ming at full speed, they were at least an hour
in passing the camp.

FEMALE LovE.-Il0w few women have
ever been in love. They marry because they
are asked, and because the marriage is suit.
able. 1t is their vocation. to be married;
parents approve, and they have no other ut.
tachment Any observant person living in
society where is continual marrying, must be
exhausted, or his arrows bIunt--he pierces
few hearts. | am inclined to think that a
girl really in love, one who bore the symp-
toms of the maady would be thought very
improper, yet have often fancied that there
must be man born in the world for every
woman, and of whom to see would be to
love, to cheer, even to adore; one with whom
her sympathies would be so entirely blended
that she would recognise him at once as her
lord. Now and-then these pair come to-
gether; and woe 10 her that meets this other
self too late; for neither peace, happiness, nor
contentment will dwell therein, though she
may have lover and devoted heart. There
fore, entreat you to know you love SINGER
ely before you make the leap.
Women would be more humble and mer.

th0ughtessness, measure the temptations of
Others oy their own experience Marry for
love, pray to God for happiness and "by the

which is sixiy-eight million bushels over that
