TIE LEGION OF IIcNau.-Napoleon used to
soy.--"Of all the orders that have ever been
created, either IN ancient or modern times,
there is not one which has been of such ad-
vantage to its founders MS the Legion OF Hon
or. Il is the hand work and master piece.
No one, either now or in future days, can
dispute my right TO the glory of founding it..
| am indebted to it for half my victories. -
Napoleon stated what was perfectly true
The hope Of obtaining the cross has been tho
parent of incredible acts of valor many Of
which are still unknown to the world
Here is one amongst others, which chef
deScadrOa used to '9ke particular delight in
relating-"ln the course Of the night which
preceded the battle Of Austerliz, one Of my
brigadiars wagered Lis watch with one of
his comrades that he would gain the Cross
Of Honor the following day. In fact, in bril-
liant charge against a superior force, he pen
elrated the enemy's squadrons, killed five
men with his own hands, ahd carried off
standard. He was covered with blood, espe-
cially on his face. the only visible part Of
which was his eyes. AS he was returning
to his regiment the emperor met him and said
-'you have done enough for once, my friend
Go and get your wounds dressed" The
brigadier, wiping his face with the flag he
had captufed, replied to the cmperor--" ant
not wounded at ALL sire" Napoleon, de-
l.gh d at this answer,said--'1 make YOU
marchH des logiS (quartermaser) and | con-
Ter upon you the Cross Of Honor" The
most singular circumstance in this flair is,
that at the moment when the brigader was
thus recompenscd, the comrade with whon'
he had betled his watch arrived, wounded by
a pistol shot, which had been fred at him by
general officer, whom he brought Ms prso-
ner, aud whom he presented to the emperor
"Another Cross Of Honor" SAID Napoleon,
laughing. "If things 20 on in this way,
shall either have TO suppress the order, or "
decorate the whole Of my army"

The GRATEFUL BEGCAR.-A corresponds
ent of the New York Sentinel, ia his last
letter from Florence, gives the following
choice bit of gossip:
Instances are not unfrequeut of mendi-
cants becoming rich through their beggarly
savings. a singular revelation of this is
reported to have occurred here a few weeks
ago. a young man of respectable family
being cheated in some way out of his heri-
tage went to n certain church daily to pray
the Virgin to take his cause into her hands,
and as he went he was in the habit of throw
ing an aims into the hands of Il beggar found
always on the church steps, who pretended
to be blind, wearing bandage over his eyes,
After month or so the beggar addressed
him, changing his mploring air to one of pa
:ronage, and asking him if he did not him
self need pecuniary aid. The young man,
with surprise, asked the beggar in reply.
what was that 10 him. Much, he answer
ed, because | love you;' and he then nuuir-
ed If he would like to make an eligible mar
riage. 'lN said the gentleman; how can |
marry rich wife when have nothing to
bring her in returnp 'Well enough if vou
let me make the match for you. said tho
beggar. Come tomorrow at such an hour.

good fortune. 'Agreedr said the other, be-
ginning to believe his patron Mary had

day found him true to his appointment at tho
house. The door being opened by servant.

when the domestic insisted on his going in,
saying that his master expected him. lie
accordingly entered, and found gentleman
who met him with a kindly welcome. Sir,

said the young man. i know yOu very well,
thought replied the gentleman; and permit
me to present to you my daughter said he,
leading the astonIshed youth to beautiful
young lady seated on sofa. After some
general conversation, the father signiiied his
wish to be alone with the stranger. The
daughter modestly withdrew, and he reveal

accumulated a fortune through begging, and
would now present mm with his daughter
and her dot, because he was sure that he was
an honest man. 1t need not be added that
Italian pety did not prevent the young mans
accepting the price of low treachery; nor
that it led him again to the church to thank
the Virgin for this wonderful answer to his
prayers, and to hang silver heart, in ac-
acknowledgement, before her image"

PENITENTIARY-It is evident from the re-
port of the lessee Of the State Prison, that
some change will have to be adopted in our
Penitentiary system. Up to this writing the
experiment may be put down as mortifying
failure. Experience has apparently demon
strated that the system OF leasing out Of the
keeping Of State prisoners in California has
not met public expectaton-that the location
is badly choscn-.hat it should be removed
or rather divided, 50 as to give US two more
State Prsons--and that the system of Ieas-
ing should be either improved or abandoned
Probably those who have contracted with
the State manage the affair as successfully as
it can be done; if so, the system should
doubtless be changed.
For the State to undertake the management
Of the Pententary herself would hardly
seem advisable, as the expense would eat up
her entire annual income. What then is to
be donel A friend, who has had expert
ence in the matter Of keeping prisoners, sug
gests that the law be so changed that certain
crimes now punishable by imprisonment in
the Penitentiary, may be punished by impris-
onmeut in the County JAIL He declared
that the expense would not be half SO great,
aud that the county could put them at work
making roads, bridges, building jais, court
houses, or something else, and by such means
render them Of small cost to the county
We repeat the views for what they may be
worth. and hope the reports Of the commit
tees appointed by the Legislature may fur>
nsh evidence and suggestions which will en-
able the members to see their way clear in
the premises. Sac. Union.

Tmg RULING PASSION STRONG AFTER
DEAru.--lt seid that fraco Rocci, the cele-
brmcd dominican preacher, was an inyeter-
ate hater Of tobacco smoke. One day, while
preaching to squad Of Spanish sailors, who
INDUCED very literally their propensity for
smoking, he broke the thread Of his dis
course and told them that once on time a
lot of smoking Spauards, who by some for
,uitous circumstance rot into heaven, pulled
out their nasty smoke 81 that ST. Peter was

Onr Childhood.
BY G. d. PRENTICE.

IT'S sad--yet sweet--to listen
To the soft winds gentle swell,
And think we hear the music
Our childhood knew so well;
To gaze out on the even
And the boundless fields of air,
And feel again our boyhood wish
To roam like angels there!
There are many dreams of gladnoss
That cling around the past
And from the tomb of feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast
The forms we loved so dearly,
In the happy days now gone
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon.
Those bright and lovely maidens,
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too gloriously and too heavenly
For such world as this!
Whose soft dark eyes seem swimming
In sea of liquid light,
And whose locks of gold were streaming
O'er brows so sunny bright.
Whose smiles were like the Sunshine
In the spring time Of the year
Like the changeful CLEANS of April
They followed every tear!
a II their lovelness has fled
They have passed--like hope-away-
Oh! many Il heart is mourning
That they are with the dead.
Like the bright buds of the summer
They have fallen from the stem
Yet oh!--it is lovely death
To fade from earth like theml
And yet-the thought is saddening
TO muse on such as they
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away
That the fair ones whom we love,
Grow to each loving breast,
Like tendrils of the clinging vine,
Then perish where they rest.
And can we but think Of There
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees are waving Ger us,
And the flowers are blossoming
For we know that winters coming
With his cold and stormy sky
And the glorious beauty round US
Is blooming but to die.
