Anecdote Of Napoleon I.

Napoleon was accustomed to wear a
coat of mail under his clothes, and which
he rarely went without. On his depart
ure once for Belgium, he thought it best
to guard against these dangers with which
he was threatened, having all Europe
leagued against him, by every means in
his power He accordingly sent for a
clever workman and asked if he thought
himself competent to make n coat of mail
of such texture that no weapon whatever
could penetrate. On the artifcer an
swering in the affirmative, Napoleon
agreed TO give him $4,000 francs, the
sum asked. On the day fixed, the man
brought his work to the palace. Napo-
leon quickly examined it, and ordered
the workman to put it on himself. The
man obeyed. Napoleon took two pistols,
saying, 1--WE shall now see whether this
coat of mail is of the texture you promised
me-" He fired at his breast, the cuirass
resisted. "Turn around" The man
obeyed. The second bail struck his back
with the same result The poor artifcer,
half dead with fright, thought these trials
would be sufficient, but he was mistaken
in his calculations. Bonaparte next arm
ed himself with long fowling piece, and
made the same experiment on the shoul-
ders, back and breast of the trembling
patient. Happily the cuirass resisted,
and saved the inventor from so cruel a
trial "How much am to pay you 2"
said Napoleon, after this noble exploit.
Eighteen thousand francs" stammered
the afrighted artifcer. "No such thing,
sir" said Napoleon, 81 shall give you
thirty-six thousand francs" and gave an
order on his treasurer for that amount.

POETRY.
Bryaut,s "Cro,vded street."


"How fast the fitting figures come!
The mild, the fierce, the stony face,
Some bright with thoughtless smiles, and some
Where secret tears have left their trace.
"Nouth, with pale brow and slender frame,
And dreams of greatness in thine eye,
Goest thou to build an early name?
Or early in thy task to die9
"Keen son Of trade, with eager brow,
Who is now futtering in thy snare?
Thy golden fortunes-tower they now?
Or melt the gittering shapes to air?
"Who Of this crowd tonight shall tread
The dance till daylight CLEAN again.
Who sorrow o'er the untimely deadp
Who writhe in throes of mortal pain?
"Some, famine struck, shall think how long
The cold, dark hours-how slow the light
And some who haunt amid the throng,
Shall hide in dens Of shame tonight.
And some who walk in calmness here,
Shall shudder as they reach the door,
Where one who made their dwelling dear,
Its light, its life, is seen no more"

A Monkeys Memory.

Authors generally think the monkey
race are not capable of retaining lasting
impressions, but their memory is remark
ably tenacious when striking events call
it into action. A monkey which was per-
mi,ted to run free, had frequently seen
the man servant in the great country
kitchen, with its huge Fireplace, take
down a powder horn that stood on the
chimney-place, and throw a few grains
into the fire, to make Jemima and the
rest of the maids jump and scream, which
they always did on such occasions very
prettily.
Pug watched his opportunity, and when
all was still, and he had the kitchen to
himself, he ciambered up, got possession
of the well-flled powder horn, perched
himself very gingerly on one of the hori-
zontal wheels placed for the support of
sauce-pans, right over the warm ashes of
an almost extinct wood fire, screwed off
the top of the horn and reversed il over
the CRATE. The explosion sent him half
way up the chimney. Before he was
blown up, he was snug, trim, well-eon-
ditoned monkey as you would wish to see
on a summer day-he came down car
donated "nigger" in miniature, in an
avalanche Of burning SCOT.
The weight with which he pitched upon
the hot ashes, in the midst of the general
fare.dp, aroused him to a sense of his
condition. He was missed for days.
; Hunger at last drove hm forth; he
: sneaked into the house, close-singed, be-
grimmed, and looked scared and ugly
/ He recovered with care and like some
e grea, personages, he never got over the
a sudden elevation and fall, but became 1
!. sadder if not wiser monkey. If eve

MISCELLANEOUS.
The TOmbs Lawyers.


The following sketch, published some
years since, is from the pen of A. Oakley
Hall, Esq, the present District Attorney
of New York city.
While we are waiting at this corner of
Pearl and Centre streets, watching for
that Harlem railroad car which never
comes when wanted, and always gets
sandwiched for a space of fifteen minutes
between two freight cars in the Bowery,
when you are in a hurry, and, like
Young Rapid, desire to push along and
keep moving, let US lean on the lamp
post and diligently survey Mr.. Slopcrton
Slawl, who is coming this way from the
Tombs, with long paper in his hand, at
which he looks every minute. Not that
there is anything on it, but Mr.. Sloperton
Slawl feels that he has the eyes Of Center
street upon him, and his reputation for
business is at stake. As he passes us, he
makes our observation sort Of half bow,
as if to say, "Thankee for your notice"
Where Slawl came from, or lives, or
belongs, or who are his family or friends,
no one knows or can tell-and, what is
more, no one cares, so it is not very like
" any one will find out. The public are
contented to take him for what he is, and
they found that out long ago.
Mr.. Slawl has an impudence which
very easily fills the place of learning.
He has a voice like a babbling mill
wheel, and his throat is a race-stream of
water not the clearest in the world-bui
his head is a reservoir that, if it ever was
full, emptied itself many years ago.
At the Special Sessions, and among
the prisoners, he is a mighty man. AL
though discovered for his shallowness by
the policemen and police justices, de-
spised by the higher judges for his man
ner, and loathed by all respectable socie
ty, he still continues his daily round o
lying, talking, managing, and collecting
of small fees, as unconcernedly as if h
, were at peace with all the world, and al
the world in love with him.
When the prison opens, he enters 70
his daily round, and goes from cell to ce
with patronizing air. II poor dew
wants advice, he says, first thing, "Ho'
much money have you got u" If none
"Have you any friends Z" or "any pre-

Of HI act of muniticence on the part of Mr.. BucH.y4E
which it gives US pleasure to record for the iu(ormn.
ton of our readers-uot that those who are acousiut.
I'd with his private and personal virtues can stand in
need Of any such atteststion to his beuevolence, but
simply as an act OF justice to one from whose political
opinions, however honestly entertained, we are com
PEELED to Dissent. The statement to which we refer
is as follows:
"In the fall of 1919 James Buchanan made a dona.
ton Of four thousand dollars for the relief of poor
and indigo mt females in the city Of Lancaster 1t
was made ia the certificates of the Lancaster city six
per ceut Loan The debt of that city (says the Detroit

on the Donation thus produces $2IO per annum, to be

CONCERT OF ACTION.


The alarming aspect of affairs renders it, in my
opinion, of tho almost Importance, that some plan OF
concerted action should he forthwith agreed upon be-
tween the Governors of all the Southern States, by
which. in the event of Il Black Republican triumph
in November, the State Legislatures of their States
may be forthwith convened in extraordinary session,
TO deliberate upon the proper measures to be adopted
in such an emergency. On the happening OF such
an event, honor aud interest alike demand that the
South should forthwith withdraw from all connection
with tho North, and establish an independent con.
~fedcracy. The people IRE ripe for such a result. They
will withdraw in peace and quiet If they can, but in
war and blood If they must. Nothing can hold them
longer in such All unequal union, but AFFECT submis.
sion to Tyranny aud disgrace. Governor Wise is the
man to lead of in this precautionary movement, and
| hope he will delay not another day in addressing
himself to the task. Don't let us wait until we are
bound hand and foot by the enemy. We should be
prepared to formally declare the Union dissolved for.
ever, ON the 18th of March, 1851. A Black Republi.
can administration can never be inaugurated over
the Southern States of this Union. | would rather
See the sunny fields Of the whole South converted
INTO a grave yard OF martyred patriots than see such
a d'sgraceiui consultation of the hopes and designs
Of aoolltiohisul. FON POPULI.
