NAPOLEON AND ST.. HELENA.-The
Moniteur de PArmee announces that
in consequence of the Intervention
of the East India Company, the Brit
ish Government, have ceded to the EN-
peror of the French the house occupied
by Napoleon at St. Helena, and the
tomb in which his remains were depos-
tied until 1910, the house is Immediately
to be repaired. The tomb is to be re-
stored to the state it was when it con-
tanned the remains, and probably fu-
neral chapel will be added. All the
places which have been immortalized
by his presence will be carefully guard
ed-the hill from which, in fine weather,
he contemplated the sea, and the point
of the road at which he returned when
riding on horseback.

GA NATION OF SHoPKEEPERs.'- This
expression, applied by Napoleon to the
British people, was original, it appears,
with Samuel Adams, who employed it
in an oration on the subject of American
independence, delivered in Philadelphia,
in August, 1776. This Grafton is to be
published in the Cyclopedia of Ameri-
can Eloquence, and extracts from it ap-
pear in the correspondence of the Bos-
ton Post. 1t is probable, however, that
the terse expression was used by Napo
leon without knowing that it had been
anticipated by the vehement Old repub-
lican Of the American revolution.

PICTURE OF A LUNAR MOUNTAIN
Professor Secchi, director of the Astro-
nomical Observatory at Rome, has sue
ceeded, after long series of obserya-
tions made by means of the fine tele-
scope at his command, in producing a
remarkable drawing of the lunar noun
tain Copernicus. The drawing is on a
scale of ten geographical miles to an

by triangulation. 1t is said to be by far
the most perfect representation of any
portion of the moons surface that has
ever been executed, and is of much sci

"A w IFE AND MOTHER ON HooPs-
Th New York Iribunc publishes a let
ter from lady, who subscribes herself
"A Wife and Mother and who defends
the fashion of wearing 'hoops:'
You do not like Them very well, you
do not wear them, | suppose, conse-
quently you know nothing of their con
Yenience. If l tell you that hoop
skirt relieves the hips and body of the
wearer of load which would be neces-
sary in its absence, you will say, why
necessary, either with or without hoops.
In reply, l would ask you how you
would like to see the streets of New
York city ornamented with women in
pantaloons and do you not think that
they (pantaloons, of course,) would be
quite as becoming as drapery which
shows the figure with every movement /!
No woman ventures, unless compelled
by necessity, into the street when the
wind blows if scant drapery be the reign
ing fashion. No true man would make
remarks about the flying skirts, but
there are plenty of miserable wretches
who would; and but few high minded
women have independence enough to
brave the jeers of such creatures. A
person can walk with much greater ease
with hoop, even if the same amount of
clothing be worn there is buoyancy in
the balloon like structure, which is a
great relief to all who are unfortunate
enough to wear skirts.
You say that the Empress Eugene,
for purposes of her own, ''first started
the, parvou terrible fashion Pray,
do let the Empress Eugenie's and your
wife's, if you have one, and your neigh
boris wife's, and everybody's wife's pur-
poses alone. If women are foolish
enough to get married, do please, let
their dress alone. If they can contrive
to appear in public one-fourth Of year
at time, do let them do so.
After this masterly defence of the
prevailing fashion, let the lords of crea-
ton forever hold their peace on that
point. Let the ribald tongue or pen
wag no more against "hoops.' Let
~wives and Mothers" as do "men and
fathers" dress according to their own
tastes and sense of convenience. They
Know best what is comfortable and de-
sirable.
