RExx1scEScE OF NAPoLEox-In 1S10-that mem-
CRADLE year when Rome, Amsterdam, Dantzic, Ant
werp and Paris were cities of the same proud en-
pire-Napoleon had brought his young bride to
Brussels, and received with great enthusiasm
and pomp. On the morning after his arrival, he
viewed the troops of the garrison in the 4le Feyte
and as the different regiments defiled before him
marked grenadier, who bore the eherons of . ser

like stars from face bronzed by twenty campaigns,
while enormous moustache rendered his appear
ance still more formidable, or bizarre. When the
line reformed, the emperor rode up to the regi
ment of grenaders, and called the sergeant to the
front. The heart Of the old soldier beat high, and
his cheeks gloved-

Nance"
"Noel, SIRE" he answered with ALTERING voice.
"Were you not in the army Of Italy?"
"Yes, sire: drummer at the Bridge of Arcole."
"And you became = sereant-majo
"As Narengo, sire"
But since2"

The Emperor waved his hand, the grenadier re-
turned tn the ranks, and Napoleon spoke rapidly to
the Colonel for few moments-the quick gIances
of his eyes toward Noel showing that he was talking
of him He had been distinguished for his bravery
in several battles; but his modesty had prevented
his soliciting Advancement, and he had been over

him to his side.
:" You have merited the Cross of the Legion Of
Honor" said be, giving him the one he wore. "You
are brave man"
The grenader, who at this moment stood between
the Emperor and the Colonel, could not speak; but
his eyes SAID more than volumes. Napoleon made
a sign, the drums beat roll, there was a dead ST.
lence, and the Colonel turning towards the new
knight who with trembling hands was placing the
cross upon his breast, said in a loud voice,
"In the name of the Emperor, respect Sergeant
Major Noel as sub-lieutenant in your ranks"
The regiment presented arms. Noel seemed in
dream; and only the stern immovable features of
the Emperor prevented him from falling on his
knees Another sign was made, the drums beat
and again the Colopel spoke,
In the name Of the Emperor, respect sub-lieu-

This new thunderstnoke nearly overcame the gren-

when he heard third roll Of the drums. and the
loud voice of the colonel

After this promotion the Emperor continued his
review with that calm, majestic air. which none who
beheld him ever forgot; but Noel, bursting into a
flood Of tears, tainted in the arms Of the colonel
while from the regiment came a loud, united shout
of Vics T Emperor!

DELHI, IN ISDIA.-The seat Of the new rebellion
against the British authority in India has melan-
choly history attached to it. certainly for the last
six hundred years The Philadelphia Ledger says
1t is supposed to have been capital of some im.
portance for more than 600 years But it was not
the capital Of Hindostan. Situated on the Jumna
the most important branch Of the Ganges, IS high
ND as latitude % deg, it must formerly have been
one of the most beautiful as we'll as magnificent
cities in the world Here, at the close of the four
teenth century, Tameriane, the Tartar entered with
his merciless army, and, seated on the throne of
India, received the homage of its princes to his
standard After which it was pillsged and cruelty
destroyed. By degrees it partially recovered. and
in 1647, Shah Jehan, the grandson Of Acbar, remov
ed the seat of his empire back from Agra to Delhi
Here he built, on the banks of the river, a noble
castle and palace, at the cost Of above s. 600 COO
inscribing on marble in letters of gold "If there be
paradise upon earth, this is it" The gardens cost
S. 100000.
One hundred years later, in 1873, Nadir Shah.
the Persian usurper being refused $3.50 coo 600 for
the ransom Of the city, destroyed 100 of the in
habitants and collected more than double that
amount Of booty Since that time it has been plum
dered time and again, till little of its former maenif-
icence remains. Instead Of 90 l,OOQ its former
population there now but about loo, 600 inhab-
itants Its affairs probably at the worst lust
before the city was entered by Lord Lake. ever
since which the government has been conducted
nominally by the King of Delhi, but really BY the
English resident There is college established
there with 40 students, printing office and an
observatory. Now the news comes that al the Eu-
ropeans have been massacred.
The reigning family, we believe, still boasts its
lineal descent from the house of rameriane These
princes have long, however, been quite impotent
and dependant upon the protection and bounty of
the British government, especially since the defeat
Of Bowlub Row Scinda, in the neighborhood
1t is no doubt with . view Of appealing to the
historical associations connected with the former

ruins extending twenty miles each say, remind the
citizens Of the bespoiled splendor Of their former
capital Fl. zsE =.
