PLAYING THE PUDDLES.

On the birthday of Napoleon Charles, son
of Louis Napoleon and Ilor,er s., and a
child whom the Emperor Napoleon meant
to make his heir, he and his mother We're
seated at window in the palace which
opened on the grand avenue. A heavy
shower had fallen, and the avenue was full
of pools Of water. A group of barefooted
children were out there wading in the water
and playing with little chip boats. The
Young Prince richly dressed, in splendid
hall, and surrounded by his elegant and
costly birthday presents, turned carelcssly
away from his toys, and watched the chill
dren with eager interest. @~'
so then. my son. said his mother, you
are not grateful for your presents
'Oh. yes replied the young Prince, sbut
am so used to toys. Look at those little
bows, mamma
'Do you wish for money to give themp
sPapa gave me enough this morning. -.
'Well, what ails you, my child? What do
you want?'
sOh,' said the young Prince, hesitatingly,
Il know you will not let me, but if could
90 out and play in those beautiful puddles,
it would amuse me hundred times more
than all my elegant presents
So, you see, real enjoyments are not al
WAYS the most costly; and the children OF
the poor may have pleasures which the chill
dren Of the rich are debarred from.--Amcr-
icdn Messenger.

NJ Mr.. Morphy, who arrived out by the
Africa, quietly walked into the St Georges
Chess Club one night last week, and, after
beating Mr.. Lewen, who is recognized
champion, with the greatest ease, offered
challenge to Mr.. Staunton, the British C@ur
de Lion of the noble game. Mr.. Staunton
accepted the proposition, sat down, went to
work, almost cleared the board in some
twenty moves, and was about withdrawing
in contempt, when he was arrested by
"check,'' which in three moves more
grew into ssmate." You may imagine the
CONSERVATION of the hero and the lockers
on.
'sMay ask your name, Sir?" said Mr..
Staunton.
Certainly, sir.' replied his young antag-
onist. 'My name is Morphy.'

sAh! then am sorry, but am not QUITE

And so Mr.. Staunton withdrew. The event
has excited quite as great sensation in the
world of chess as was bred in the world of
yachtmen by the victory of the America; /;
and Mr.. Morphv has made match with An
dereer, the Hungarian, upon which all Eng
land that payeth chess will, of course, be

EY Some months since, on the corner of
Nassau and Spruce streets, a beggar had
taken his stand, and day after day asked
aims of all who passed. A gentleman who
was engaged in experimenting the construc-
tion Of new building, thought the bcggar
looked like an able bodied man, and went
over and asked him if he would not like
to work, and offered him dollar a day.
To his surprise the beggar replied-'l

60" The Louisville Courier perpetrates
a pungent take-off ON the custom of giving
receptions to returning Members Of Con-
gress. 1t says when Humphrey Marshal
reached the city, Robert +. Baird made
glorious speech. He took his stand upon
the wharf, and as the huge form Of Hum
phrey darkened his vision, he lifted Up his
voice and spoke as follows: --
Mr.. Baird's Speech. are you, Col-
onel?'' ~ a ..a5.. .. +
To this most touching and eloquent re-
ception, Humphrey made the following ap-
propriate reply: ss

Bob?' eg ."s .@
These beautiful speeches were taken down
as delivered, by spccia' photographic re-
porter, and they may be implicitly relied
upon.

CV Some years since correspondent Of
the Boston Cultivator, recommended potash
for this purpose. The rats troubled him
very much, so that he felt justified in resort
ing to extreme measures to effect their ex-
pulsion from his premises. He pounded up
potash and strewed it around their holes,
and rubbed some under the boards and on
the sides where they came through. The
next night he heard a squealing among
them, which he supposed was from the
caustic nature of the potash that got among
their hair or on their bare feet. They dis
appeared, and for long time he was ex-
empt from any further annoyance. $50

Jonathan, We blush to say, took the money

Until the fate of ORsIyr and PIERRI was
