Dopular Reabmg,
MY LITTLE NED AND I.

BY DIR. ". n. H0LCOMBE.
My little playmate's dead and gone
gave him many tear!
A merry little negro boy,
Just twelve years old this year;
Alas! that on my chldhood's heart
So great grief should lie
Well no more play, by night or day,
My little Ned and l!
He was my shadow where went,
Subservient to my will,
But with enduring gentleness
He made me gentler still.
We climbed the trees, we bridged the brook
We chased the butterfly;
Well no more play, by night or day,
My little Ned and /!
I knew, when he became 80 i'll,
His little soul would 60,
Although my mother nursed him well,
And the doctor said, "Oh, no"
For had dreamed saw his face
Look smiling from the sky;
Well no more play, by night or day,
My little Ned and l
heard him talking to himself
About the children fair,
With sprangled dresses, all so fine,
Who played around him there;
He whispered low, and promised them
Tojoin them by and by;
Well no more play, by night or day,
My little Ned and |.
That long, long night we watched his death,
The dogs howled at the door,
The owls cried from the forest tree
An hundred times or more;
My mother closed his glazing eyes,
Whilst stood sobhing by;
Well no more play, by night or day,
My little Ned and I!
And when the great plantation bell
Resounded for the roll,
The rol-call of the heavens received
Another shining soul.
am SCHOOL, boy-and he
An angel in the sky;
We'llno more play, by night or day,
NV little Ned and |!

DEATH OF JEROME BoNAPARTE.

DEATH OF JEROME BONAPARTE.
The Parana brings the news of the death
of the Prince Jerome Bouaparte, the last
of that family which the genius of Napole.
on raised from obscurity to place and power.
Jerome Bonaparte, was fifteen years
younger than Napoleon. He was educated
in part by Madame Campen, and entered
the navy when his elder brother assumed
the consulship. 1t was while in the navy,
and while cruising in American waters,
that he first met Miss Elizabeth Patterson,
a young lady noted for her beauty, in city
which is famous for its beautiful women
They were married on Christmas Eve, in
the year 1903. In 1905, they crossed the
Atlantic, but did not epter France, for or
ders had been given not to admit the lady
deemed plebiau by the 'Pebian Emperor.
Soon after arriving in Europe, her first
child, the present Mr.. Jerome Bonaparte, Of
Baltimore, was born.
A little later still, under the stress of
Napoleon's desire that his relatives should
marry into royal families, their marriage
contract was annulled, and in 1907 Jerome
was married to the Princes Fedrica of Wur-
temberg, who died about twenty five years
ago. The Princess Mathilde, the (di-
vorced) wife of Prince Demidoff of Russia,
and Prince Napoleon, husband of the Prin-
cess Clotilde of Sardinia, are their survi-
wing children. Jerome became after his
second marriage, successively Admiral of
the French navy, Prince of the Empire,
King of Westphalia, and exile He had
the honor of leading the French charge in
the battle of Waterloo, and then again be-
came fugitive.
He resided in Austria and Italy. under
the title of Count de Montfort (giveu him
by the King of Wurtemberg,) until the
corp d'ctat elevated the Third Napoleon to
royal seat, when he again frequented the
Tuilleries. During the Presidency, he had
place and privileges; and, under the Empire,
until the birth of the Prince, he was heir
presumptive to the crown. His first wife
still resides in Baltimore, and through a
life that is now long, has remained faithful
to the first and only marriage vows, whose
annulment she would never acknowledge,
while her fathess and weak husband,
whether in the Westp phalian Court or the
Palais Royal, has forgotten both his first and
last, and, dying, bears no nobler title than
the last of the family of the Corsican.
By the death of the Prince Jerome, his
son, the Prince Napoleon, becomes, in case
of the death of the Prince Imperial, the
heir to the throne of France.

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE.-Only TWEEN
Fl ty years ago last November, Louis Napo-
leon (the present Emperor Of France, left
the st. Charles Hotel without paying his
board bill. In the New Orleans Bee, of
November Goth, 1889, appeared the follow
ing account of the snoble Counts" depar-
ture from that city:
Count Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, whose
arrival in this city was announced in sever
al of the papers, has left New Orleans, in
high dugeon, and for just reason He was
yesterday morning informed by the proprie-
tors of the St. Charles Hotel, that it was
customary for gentlemen travelling without
baggage. (the Count was splendidly provi-
ded in that way for man of his ttuar
dimensions) to pay for their board in ad-
vance, whereupon the following dialogue
trauspired:
Couut-My name is sufficient guarantee
for my bill.
Publican-Your name, Count, is very
good name, but won't buy marketing.
Count-Make out my bill
Publican-It shall be done
The clerk tbereupon presented the bill,
made out 10 the name of Count l.. n Bo
naparte.
sMy name,' said the Count, rs Louis Ma.
poleon Bopaparte-I wish it so stated in
full 10 the account
A second bill was made out in fair legible
letters.
sMy name is Count Louis Napoleon Bo-
uaparte, Prince of Segoria, Kamschatka,
and other depend say so in the bill,
responded the sprig of nobily.
Il will not make out third bill, said
the clerk.
Then III be ID if paw it, said his
Excelency, aud forthwith abSquatulated.
Bas- \ week or twoago four creditors started
for Boston in the same train of cars, for
the purpose of attaching the property of a
certain debtor in Fartnington, in the State
of Maine He owed each one separately,
and they were suspicious of the object of
the other, but dared not say word about
it. So they rode, acquaintancesall talking
upon everything except that which they
had most at heart When they arrived at
the depot at Pennington, which was three
miles from where the debtor did business,
they found nothing to put 'em over the
road hut a solitary cab, toward which they
all rushed. Three got in and refused ad
mittapce to the fourth and the cab started
The fourth ra1 after and got upon the out
side with the driver He asked the driver
if he wanted to sell his horse. Hc replied
that he did not want tu-t.at he was rot
worth more than fifty dollars, but he would
not sell him for that He asked him if he
would take one hundred dollars for him
Yes, said he. The fourth man qnickl;
paid over the money, took the reins and
backed the cab up to a bauk, slipped i,
from the harness and tipped it up so tina,
the door could not be opened, and jumped

NUREKA SILVER POLISH,-l

EUREKA SILVER POLISH.-It
lL has long been considered desideratum to
obtain mixture that will remove the tarnish
produced by the atmosphere or gaseous exhala-
tions, without affecting the metal itself. Prep
arations of this kind are generally acids, which
not only remove the stains, but attack also the
metals, thereby destroying the fine polish, and
are, therefore, highly objectionable
Such preparation can be obtained, without
any of the objections above named, in the EU-
REKA SILVER POLISH, for removing the
tarnish and stains from Silver, Brass Copper, or
other metals, and which is warranted to contain
no acid or other substance, in the slightest de-
gree injurious to the finest Silverware. For Sale

THE FIRE. E.CRACKER.-What intense
qualification is afforded to the just hedging
American citizen by the possession of one of
these articles 1t is for moment his idol,
and how dearly he cherishesit! The youth,
however, is impressed with habit of des-
tructiveness, and looks upon every thing in
the form of fireworks or any composition of
powder, as means of gratifying that pro-
pensity. No sooner is he possessed of the
imitation of Chinese manufacture-for all
Chinese crackers are not made by the Co.
lestials-than he communicates the ignited
extremity of his piece of punk to the fbrous
stem of the cracker and eagerly watches it
explode. The operation is novel and de-
lightful to him. Perhaps it is the first op-
portunity he has ever had of affording HIM
self such intense qualification. HI takes
the harmless cracker with some misgiving
as to the probable result, examines it care.
fully, and then, urged by his older compan-
ions, applies the lighted punk. He watch
es the rapid progress of the fire, and when
it approaches near to the body of the crack
er, extends it in his tiny fingers as far as his
arm can reach, closes his eyes with such an
effort as to seriously comfort his features,
and awaits the result. 1t is not long com.
! ing. He hears the report, feels the sting
in his fingers, and opens his eyes to the re-
ality. How immeasurably delighted he is.
He dances about in excess of glee, and
straightway runs to his paternal banker
to whom all little boys fly when in want of
money-to procure the funds for more ex-
tended Investment He is soon grati6ed,
aud with an entire pack of crackers, contents
himself in demonstrating the fact that he
is not afraid of powder, and is doing bis
best to celebrate the Anniversary of Amer
can Independence Of the latter he cares
less than the former, and so long as his pack
of crackers holds out he is supremely hap

VERY OBLIGING.-A tradesman was
waited upon in his shop by a superbly-at-
tired female, whom he politely addressed,
and desired to know what commands she
wished to honor him with. The lady, after
lifting the veil, which hid not unhand-
some face, intimated in style correspond
ing with her dress, that hearing there was
a vacancy in the gentlemau's service, she
desired to be engaged by him as house
maid.
The gentleman stated that his better
half was at her residence in the suburbs

who was small and delicate:
