The Young Mems Association of this
city was recognized on Monday evening
last, and we understand new and efficient
officers were elected, who will endeavor to
make this an institution Of which our ty
may be proud.
I. Is proposed Cy the Association topro-
cure Lecturers during the coming winter,
and We believe we speak the sentiments OF
majority of our cit zcns in wishing them
success in their undertaking. Chicag" has
the b. st of Lecturers to visit her city every
winter, and certain y the young men OF OF
txwa deserve to he aided in an .ifnrt, which,
as far as practicable, will intr duce into our
midst such in,ellects as Geo. D. Prentice, T.
Starr King. Edward Everett, al d others.
The Association will meet again on next
Monday evening, at Rice & Reeds Law Of
ti.c, when all who feel interested are invited
to attend.
Persons having books belonging to the so
ciety are requested to return them forth - ih
to I. Reed, Librarian.

daughter, with 100000 francs of a dowrg.
Lieutenant of artillery Not a bad rank.
Napoleon had the honor to bear it, AID the
grace to remember it. n.
At the Conference of E-furt, during that Con.
gress Of Emperors and Kings, become tie sim
pie satellites of Napoleon, one day q table
they we're speaking of the old Germanc Con
federation, and especially Of the famous tolden
Bull of Rome. Its date was asked. Tirre was
momont of silence; no one Remembered it.
Napoleon spoke:
1856"
"What, sir " cried courtier King I" you
know our history 80 we'll When has your Ma.
jesty found time to study it?"
"When was q lieutenant of artiller," said
the Emperor.
The words produced singular effeclamong
those Princes all born to the thrones. napoleon
perceived it, and repeated
"When / had the honor to be Remnant of
artillery"
Well, although the grade is nice,ne, our
lieuteuant OF artillery did not think it cough to
win the hand of Mademoiselle -; 90 he
had never dreamed of asking it. But, one day.
he was followed by an elderly gemtlenn-tall,
thin, and blessed with large poned nose.
This person followed him into the,4ymnase
Theatre, seated himself beside him, IND drew
him into conversation. The aquaintnce was
mrde. The long nosed man visited Hmat his
quarters, offered friendship, and ons fire day
said = II
II am interested in you-hase lively
friendship for you. l must have yn married"
Mice proof of friendship" sale tie officer,
laughing.
My dear friend, there are MARRIAGES and
marriages. What would you sayt 100000
francs of dowry, with expectancis'"
The officer ceased laughing. b brief the
long, osed man introduced him at As banker's.
The officer pleased the daughter. be father
shrugged his shoulders when q maiage was
spoken of; but the man of the nosdtsve ouch
excellent accounts of the young sold&, covered
up his wild oats, exaggerated 30 welhis merit
and his virtues, had 30 many resour4s ed in:
genious stratagems at hand, that-tl3 mai isge
soon took place. The Lieutenant las stoa.
ished at such singular devotion, suct wtmth
of friendship. The day after the wtldin, the
long nose called to see him.
My dear friend" said the brid&roo., "I
shall never forget what you have doe I'd nae.
l shall always hold you in rememb1nceg My
