Bonaparte's Prophecy.

On one occasion he said TO o.
Meara, in the course Of few years
Russia will have Constant'nople, the
greatest part of Turkey, aud all

tain as If it had already taken place.
Almost all the hattering and cajoling

me, was To effect this object. |
would not consent, forseeing tina,
the equilibrium of Europe would be
destroyed. In the natural course of
things, in a few years, Turkey will
fall to Russia. The greatest part of
her population are Greeks, who, you
may say are Russians. The powers
it will injure and who could oppose
it, are England, France, Prussia, and
Austria. Nov as To Austria, IL will
be very easy for Russia to engage
her assistance by giving Servia and
other provinces bordering on the
Austrian dominions, reaching near to
Constanlinople. The only hypothe-
sis tina, England and France will ev-
er be united sincerely viii be in or
der 10 prevent this. But even this
alliance would not avail. France,
England and Prussia united cannot
proven, it. Russia and Austria can,
at any time, effect il.
Once mistress of Conslantinople,
Russia gets all the commerce OF the
observation-disclosures a great ma
val power, and God only knows what
may happen. She quarrels with you
then marches off an army Of seven
iy thousand good soldiers, which in
Russia is nothing, and q hundred
thousand Canaille, Cossacks, and
others. and England loses India
Above all other powers Russia is
mos, to be feared, especially by you.
Her soldiers are Drawer than the
Austrians she has the power Of rails
ing as many as she pleases. Ia
bravery, the French and English SOL
diers are the only ones to be compar-
ed with them. All THE I forssaw. |

Sandwich Island Beauties.

Along the whole eastern face of
the Island of Hawaii there are
numberless rills and streams that
come bounding along from the lofty
sides of the giant mountains, in
cataracts and cascades, until at last
they jump from the green-clad shores
into The salt foam of the ocean. One
Of the largest Of them is Wailuku.-
No farther than league from the
harbor inland, is miniature Niagara,
Of more than hundred feet, which
dashes a mass Of broken water into
the bowl-like basin, flashing upon
either side brilliant ralnbows, from
which the fall takes its name.
Keiraclng our steps towards the vii
lagc, the banks of the little river be-
come less abrupt, and within few
hundred yards of the bay the water
is diverted into multitude of chan
nels-here torrent boiling over
scattered rocks, with a clear, sleeping
pool beyond lhere-ihe white cntar-
act plunging swiftly through narrow
straits, and leapins gaily down below,
like liquid porlcullis to some
massive gateway-agaIn, whrling
edlies playing around rocky isleIs,
until at last by one sparkling effort
the waters re-unite, and go roaring
and struggling down steep chasm
into the noisy surface of the bay.
II is here the young Of both sexes
pass most of their time. Troops Of
boys and girls, and even little ones
scarcely able TO walk, are seen in all
directions, perched on broad shelving
crags and grassy mounds, or, still
higher up, clinging from the steep
sides and peeping out from amid the
foliage. On every side they came
leaping joyously into the rushing
waters There on a bluf-ihirly,
forty-ay! seventy feet high-a
score Of native maidens are following
each other into the limpid pools

flight through the air, they are poised

Storming of a City.

frighlful picture OF Badajos, as it
appeared on the night after it had
been carried by the Allies, under
Wellington, April 6, 1921, says an
English officer, who participated in
the assault -

From the Baltimore Sun.
Visit to Mr.. Clay by young
Merchant of Baltimore, du-
ring his Last Illness.

Ii was while Kossulh was in
Washington, and an exciting session
of Congress, then at its height, |
determined to go down there, and
see the lions of the day, but more
especially to meet once again the
great Henry Clay. Well, found
upon my arrival that Mr.. Clay's bad
health had caused his doctor TO
forbid strangers from visiting him,
and then determined to seek some
Influential man, and by my entreaties
gain admission 10 the sick patriots

ton | resolved, however, TO address
Mr.. Clay a note, which | did, So

orders were positive, that Mr.. Clay

My friend Sansbury, then an
atlache of the National, however,
came to my aid, and | dispatched
my note on its mission. The waiter
returned with the reply, that Mr..

REMARKs-We heartily approve
the sentiments Of the preceding
communication. Not halfenough corn
fodder is raised by the farmers Of
Vermont. Our experience has
taught us that sweet corn, for fodder,
in the stocks, is better than the fat
yellow corn, for the reason that it is
more nutritious, and much better
relished by cattle and horses; and il
the large sweet corn is used for seed,
the yield will be quite as abundant.
We have raised il at the rate Of seven
tons per acre, well cared. Ed.

A GENTLE REPROOF.

One day, as Zachariah Hodgson
was going to his daily avocation
after breakfast, he purchased fiue
large Goldfish, and sent it home,
with directions TO his wife to have
it cooked for dinner. As no partic-
ular mode of cooking it was pre-
scribed, the good woman well knew
that whether she boiled il or made
il into chowder, her husband
would scold her when he came
home. But she resolved to please
him once, if possible, and therefore
cooked portions of il several different
ways. She also, with some little
difficulty, procured sa amphibious
animal from a brook back of the
house, and plumbed it into pot.
In due time her husband came home /;
some covered dishes were placed on
the table, and, with a frowning,
faul,-finding look, the moody man
commenced the conversation
Well, wife, did you get the fish
| bought1"
Yes, my dear"
" | should like to know how you
have cooked it, will bet anything
you have spoiled it Tot my eating.
(Taking off the cover | thought
SO. What in creation possessed you
to fry it would as lief eat a boiled
frog"
Why, my dear thought you
loved it best fried"
" You didn't think any such thing.
You knew betier--I never loved
fried fish-why didn't you boil it ~
Ny dear the last time we had
fresh fish, you know | boiled it, and
you SAID you liked it best fried. But
| have boiled some also"
SO saying, she lifted cover and
10 the shoulders of the cod, nicely
boiled, were neatly deposited in a
dish, a sight which would have
made an epicure rejoice, but which
only added to the Immature OF her
husband.
A pretty dish this ~ exclaimed
he" Boiled fish Chips and por-
ridge Ii you had not been one of
the most stupid of womankind, you
would have made it into a chowder."
His patient wife, with smile,
Immediately placed tureen before
him, containing an excellent chow

solved to please. There is your fa-

a boiled frog than the whole of it.
This was a common expression
of his, and had been anticipated by
his wife, who, as soon as the prefer
ence was expressed, uncovered a
large dish near her husband, and
there was large BULL FROG, of por-
lentous dimensions and puguacious
aspect, stretched out at full length
Zachariah sprung from his chair, moi
a little frightened at the apparition
My DEAR" said his wife, in q
kind, cntreating tone, 81 hope you
will at length be able to make a DIN
ner."
Zachariah could not stand this
His surly mood was finally over
come, aud he burst into hearty
laugh. He acknowledged that his
wife was right and he was wrong
and declared that she should neve
have occasion tosread him such an
other lesson, and he was as good a
his word.
