derer filled his travelling pouch with saVory

across a wild desert. During the first lev
days he journeyed through the smiling, fer
tile fields. But instead of plucklng the
fruits which nature here offered for the re-

convenient to eat OF the provisions which
he carried with him. He sUoL reached the

Death of Gen Cayaignac.

The death OF General Cavaignac was the
most important topic in France. The event
took place while he was cut Shooting, on
tne 2oth ulIimo, near Tours. The General
was in the act ol raising his gun to his
shoulder, when he fell weakness suddenly
creep over him, end lie he'd scarcely time to
h1n9 his gun t. an attendant, who stood BIZ,
v hen lie Tell TO TIE earth and expired. He
had just completed his a5gh yeer. His widow
iorthwith proceeded To Paris with the re-
mains.
The funeral ubSeqnies OF the General
took place on Saturday, the 3Ist, in the
Church OF st. Louis l'Antin. All was con-
ducted with order and regularity, although
the streets through which the procession to
the cemetery OF Mon marte passed were
crowded, aid sbout fifteen thousand people
followed the hedTse 10 the gates OF the GEM
etery. Quite large body OF troops took
part in The proceedings, and many prOmi-
ne: Republicans, and literary snd political
celebrities we're present. The procession
contained i.r less Lf the Democratic cle-
ment than was anticipated. An Imperial
Carriage was look fer in the train, but
none were there. As the hearse passed
along, every hat was raised, and the spec
,tCrs often rem ined bare-heaGed until il
was out of sight. No addresses were spo-
ken over the tomb, but the soldiers paid the
usual miiItarv EOnors.

Death Of George ".

No mau clung to lie with greater eager
ness than Geor- e ", or was mere unwill-
ing to hear from those about him any hint
or suspicion of his apparent decay. When
confined to his room, and his case had be-
come evidently hopeless, he still felt the
vita! stamina so strong in him that he would
not believe his own danger; he talked of
preparations for the approaching Ascot
races, which he would attend in person, and
showed confidence Of his recovery, which
all around him knew 10 be impossible. On
the 9th of May, 1886. prayers were ordered
to be read in the churches for the restora-
ton OF the Kings hea lth; and although
the work of death was gradually approach
ing, the most contradictory accounts were
constantly circulated of his real estate
At length the awful moment arrived. lie

on the night of the 2J;h or June, but 1T
three O'clock in the morning he seemed to

sistance. Sir Wa;hem Waller, " no was in
attendance, came TO his beside, and at his
request helped 20 raise him from his bed
He then exclaimed, "WatIy, what is this!

in that situation without struggle expired.

Anecdote of Aaron Burr.

+ On one occasion, when a frieLd had met
with affection, she said to him: so Colonel!
how shall get through this?"
"LIvE through it, my dear.' was his en-
phsiic reply.
Still omplaining, she said: This :eA

must all die, but bless me, die game!"
Fhe 70 oliowing has alrthe weight Of a
solemn sermon:
One morning. near the close of his life,
as he lay upon his bed prostrate with paral-
ysis, a lady said to him in bantering way:
&C lionel, l wonder, low, if you ever acre
the gay LoTHARIo they say you were!"
The old man turned his eyes, the lustre
Of which was undiminished still, toward the
friend who made the remark, and lifting his
treiBb,ing finger, said he in his quiet, i'm

cars, anc-Shich brought tears 10 her eyes,
twenty years after, as she repeated the
words.

words have done more harm than all others.
Never use them, my dear. NeUer use them!'

The children pounced upon the basket,
wrang led and fought tor the bread, and each
wished to get the largest loaf; and at last
went away, without even thrnking him.

daylight was last appro aching, and in
the camp of the Light Brigade Preparations

and covered with growth of fiery red hair.
The eyes were small and grey, and wander

chosen Representatives, their trieods form
ed a procession to call upon them. They

them for their visit. and said, us his house

were. many poor in the city, send TO the

1t was evening again at Meade wdale. a
heavy breeze had sprung up with the setting
of the sun, humming its wild, ianciful music
upon the branches of the forest elms which
shaded the dark waters of the moat beneath
them. The heavy 1rawbridge, wh ich in
time of Indian wars had been raised as a
protection, was now lett down for the free
entrance and departure, of visitors and SER
wants, for now there was but little to fear
from the Indians, especially to SO we'll
