ANEcDoTE OF NAPOLEON AND THE LADIES'
DIR. Baird, in late lecture at St. Louis, related
an amusing anecdote of Napoleon le Grande and
the ladies who attended his first grand recep-
tion ball at the Tuilleres. The old nobility had
departed, and everything was new. The invit-
ed guests were mostly military officers and their
wives. Some two thousand ladies were present.
When supper time came they of course took
precedence of the gentlemen. A question arose
who had the right to go first. The great dining
room hall was thrown open admitting them, and
the doors were then closed, and the officers of
the palace found it impossible to open them. The
dispute among the ladies grew warm. One la
dy said the right was hers, as her husband was
great general but she soon found that others
on one ground orIthe otherurged that their claims
were greater Meanwhile, the officers could
not get the doors open, and in CONSERVATION one
of them hastened to the First Consul, and asked
him how they should settle the question of pre-
cedence. "Oh," says Bonaparte, "nothng is
easier; tell them the eldest is to go frst" The
officer reported to the ladies the First Consul's
decision, and instantly they all fell back This
gave the officers an opportunity to get the doors
open. when, to their astonishment none of the
ladies were willing to go first. After standing
in that ridiculous position for moment, they
began to laugh heartily at their own folly, and
all marched into the dining room without delay
This said Dr. Baird, is one of the one thousand
and one stories they tell in Paris of the "Great
Napoleon" to illustrate the readiness of his w.t.

THE PRESIDENTS LEyEEs.-The Leyees ut the
White House are not the most pleasant affairs if
Washington correspondents are to be credited.
OF Mr.. Buchanan's first levee letter writer
says:
This day has been concluded of course at the
Leyee. Thoroughly disgusted, know not how
to describe it. | could not have believed that
such an Unlocking and immense crowd, could
have been squeezed in the White House. If dis
tinguished people were there, one could not see
them. and the familiar faces of stray acquaint-
ances. who in other places would have been
shirked as bores, were so welcome, as to cause
our faces to beam with pleasure at the meeting
of them, now and then, in the mass of democra-
cy around us. 1t was greater scene OF confu-
sion and disorder than the Levee of last Friday
presented. Mr.. Buchanan retired punc;ualy at
10 o'clock-doubtess much fatigued but Miss
Lane and Miss Cass (who assisted her in receiy-
ing: J remained until the guests departed at II,
and later even.
! No pen can describe the hunt after cloaks,
coats and hats, in the Presidential mansion, and
ladies who avoided losing their coverings, did so
by either leaving them in their carriages, taking
! them into the drawing ROOMS around their shoul-
ders, or having their own maids standing in the
yestibule. in charge of them! and gentlemen re-
turned home to their hotels in droyes, without
hats or overcoats, some with pocket-handker-
chiefs tied over the ears but shivering ard la
menting their losses. saw Mr.. Buchanan's
stiffiy set head, bowling sideways incessantly, and
pited him too much to get close enough to him
to cause it to bow to me.
Mr. Breckenridge seemed to enjoy the fun,
more, and Secretary Cobb looked excited and
bright. Miss Lanes demeanor was dignifed yet
courteous. She is very handsome, blonde and
English looking beauty. Her dress was in good
taste for it was becoming her style of lovelness,
and position. A green silk with three founces
of black lace, and couture Of roses, aarmonized
with her light hair and blooming cheeks. 1t
must he disagreeable to a.yeung lady to be star
ed at as she was by all sorts OF people, but as
only the i'll. bred and ignorant are rude, perhaps
their conduct should rot annoy, but merely ex.
cite pity.

DR.. Adams says, that one reason why the

The Fourth of March.


The Fourth of March.
'Blessed are those who expect nothing, 10
they shall not be disappointed"
saw hm-he had come
From his far distant home
In the West
A jingling purse he showed,
And in the latest mode
lie was dressed
His face was all smile,
And he talked all the while
How he took
Such an interest in the late
Election in his State
For old Buck,
He'd always felt the ties
party-let it rise,
Let it fall
Twas not for the reward
That Ie had worked so hard,
Not at all.
But Office he could bear,
As the bravest soldier'd wear
Epaulets,
Which fix his rank you know
(And to the public show
What he gets.)
l saw him after that,
He had kinky hat
On his head;
His smiles were worn away,
And his pockets seemed to say
Nary Red.
And loudly he declared,
That for party men he cared
Not a jot;
He scorned their dirty tricks,
As for politics,
Twas plot.
Folks saw the sudden change
And thought it wondrous strange,
At the best;
Our friend did not explain,
But took the early train
For the West.

The Coachman who Married his employers
Daughter.

The New York Times of Saturday has the fol
lowing in relation to the late secret marriage be-
tween the daughter of Mr.. Boxer, wealthy
merchant of that city, and his coachman:
Young Dean, the lucky coachman, has finally
agreed to give up his wife for time, and &C
cept tile pecunary offers of her friends Yes.
terday his counsel received letter from Mr.
Boxers lawyer proposing that Dean should go
| into business in one of the Western cities-capi-
tai being provided by Mr.. Boker-and that he
should consent to to be separated from his wife
for the period of six months, correspondence be-
between them being allowed during that time.
Dean is willing to accept the proposition, and
thus the subject is disposed of for the present,
at least.
The Rev. Mr.. Hatfield who performed the
marriage ceremony, describes Mr. Dean as of a
prepossessing appearance. gentlemanly address,
and with nothing about him to show that he
was of Irish origin, but the slightest possible
brogue. Mr.. Dean called at his house on Tues
day, the oath of last February, end inquired if
Mr. Hatfield would on the following Saturday,
tie the marriage knot for him. MIR. II. assented.
On Saturday, Mr. Dean presented himself
and said his intended bride, who was engaged
as servant in gentleman's family close by, had
been unable to perfect her arrangements, and it
was necessary to postpone the marriage until
the ensuing Tuesday. To this Mr.. H. agreed,
appointing the time of day for the bridal party
to call. Tuesday came, and the minister held
himself in readiness to perform the ceremony:
but he waited, and they did not appear. To-
wards evening, however Deans friend came to
the house and told the servant, that owing to
the storm of the preceding day, the young la
dy had been unable to finish up her household
duties, and as she wanted to remain in her place
some time longer, she did not wish her mar
riage known, but that they would come on the
next day.
Wednesday morning came-the two couples
also, and their two witnesses with them. Miss
Boxer was dressed as became her assumed sta
ton, not in silk and hoops, nor sparkling with
diamonds. Mr. Dean was neatly attired, and
acted like well bred gentleman. As the day
was muddy and Mr.. H.'s parlors had but lately
been furnished with O new carpet, it was deem
ed prudent that the ceremony should take place
in endorsement, which was q cozy enough
place, and there the marriage took place.
At its conclusion, Dean took from his purse
roll of bills, from which detaching V, lie deli
cately passed it over, politely inquiring if that
would satisfy the clergyman. Mr.. H. bowed an
affirmative, and the happy party left, Mr.. H. re-
marking to his wife that the lady had evidently
the best of that bargain. He thought no more
of the matter till his attention was called to it
ON Tuesday last from the statement in the pa
pers, when he found that instead, as he had sup
posed, of making poor servant girl happy, he
had probably made wealthy family miserable.

YouNG AMERIoA.-A few days since, two lit
tie schoolboys were missing from Winstead,
Conn.,, and fears were entertained that they had
been drowned. They were found, however, the
same evening, seven miles from home, having
started to 60 to California, because they had
''such hard lessons to gel" and were afraid of
being hogged if they did not get them.

RELICS OF FEUDAL DAYs.-The custom of un-
covering the head and taking off the hat, or even
simply touching it, is relic Of the old disarn-
ing-the removing of the helmet to indicate that
the party thus exposed himself to the mercy Of
an enemy. To take off the glove was in like
manner to nngauntet the hand, the mere re-
mova constituting an offer of friendship. Even
now it is considered uncivil to shake hands with
the glove on Shaking of hands was formerly
a token of truce, in which the parties took hold
each of the others weapon hand, to make sure
against treachery. 1t was also token of good
will. The bow, it is said, which is now mark
of politeness, is but an offer of the neck to the
stroke of the adversary, while the courtesy pc
cuIiar to the ladies' is the form Of going on the
knees to sue for that mercy which, in earlier
ages, was difficult to get. The hair pins worn
by ladies are reduced poignards. In some parts
of Sicily these are still worn Of such size as to
be convertible into weapons. The earrings were
anciently badges of slavery, and were sodered
so that they could not be removed from the ear.
Their form indicated the owner of tho slave.
