THE BoNAPARTE FANILY.-The family of
the Bonapartes is very large. 1t fell into
obscurity after the fall of Napoleon l., in
1915; but since the revolution of lS4S,
all these unknown Bonapartes have reap
peared on the horizon, to the great surprise
of Europe. There are members of this
family who have entered the ecclesiastical
career with the hope ofbecomingc cardinals,
and perhaps popes; it was the effect of
a sagacious opinion given by the prisoner
of st. Helena. Others have adopted the
profession of arms, the highway to honor
in the Napoleon dynasty. Others still
have become diplomatists. Some live
quietly at home. Then, aside from the
legitimate posterity, there are illegitimate
descendants, who also hold offices, as Count
Walewski and the Count de Morny. In
deed, it is race which equals in number
almost the stars of the armament! The
treasury of France is burdened with the
whole support of this family I

tive account, with illustrations, of the "Wi-
mans steamship" now building in Balti-
more. 4 queer-looking object it is, if the
engravings are correct, looking like moth

writer compares it to "a huge cigar" but
it is cigar with both ends little ends"
Take two sugar-loaves with very sharp
apexes and JON them by their bases then
whittle away a portion of the thickness of
the whole figure about the middle or take

something like model of this nautical

it will be a very ugly thing.

LoAFERs IN PRINTING OFFICE.-The COM
posing room of printing Office is not the
place to tell long stories, or argue points
in metaphysics. A printing office is like a
school; it can have no interlopers, hang
ers-on, or twaddlers, without serious in
convenience, to say nothing of loss of time,
which is just as good as gold to the prin-
ter. What should be thought of man
who would enter school and twaddle first
with the teacher and then with the schol-
ars-interrupting the discipline of one and
the studies of the other? And yet this is
the precise effect of the loafers with the
course of business-distracts the great at
tcntion which, is necessary to the good prin-
ter. No gentleman will ever enter it and
presume to act the loafer. He will feel
above it, for no real man sacrifices the in
terests or interferes with the duties of
others. The loafer does both. Let him
think, if he never has, that the last place
he should ever insinuate his worthless and
unwelcomed presence is in the printing
otfice.-Printer.

Az ECCENTRIC MILLIoNARE MIsER.-The
New Orleans Crescent has the following, re-
lating TO John McDonough, the Millionaire
who died in that city several years ago,
and devised his vast wealth to the cities of
New Orleans and Baltimore:
Though worth $4,000, 900 at his death,
his personal effects sold for only S35. The
cities of New Orleans and Baltimore sue
ceeded to his estate, but not until after it
had been much reduced by litigation CON
sequent upon the eccentricity and imprac-
ticability of the will which among other
things created perpetuity for an impos-
sible scheme of negro emancipation and
colonization. These were among the old
mans eccentricities. His passion was to
acquire land any and everywhere, and
never sell it, but he never would spend
dollar for building beyond what he could
do with his own negroes, and brick of his
own making, frequently erecting the most
ridiculous shanties on lots of ground worth
thousands. He kept rigid book account
with all his negroes, eXacting so much
work from each per day, allowing them so
much for extra work and then after fight
of many years. when the total of over
work should tally with the original cost of
the slave, set him free, bless him and ship
him off to Liberia. He had chapel close
BY his house where he preached to his ne
groes on Sunday. He owned the Orleans
theatre for many years, yet he never went
inside of it. Living over the river, and
crossing and re-crossing to the city every
day, he was always, in all weathers, rowed
back and forth by one of his old negroes
in an old skiff, never but on one occasion
during long series of years paying five
cents for ride on the ferry-boat. He did
the whole of his business himself, employ
ing neither clerk, book-keeper nor colleo-
tor. and died at the age of - white haired
old man. without mourner"
