Prince Napoleon and the Old Sol
Ciier

dier.
!. Last evening there occurred one Of
those rare incidents in the progress OF
Prince Napoleon's tour through the
| u. States which will not soon be for
gotten by our iIIustrious visitor, albeit
the tenderrecoliections thereof fmay not
be Of long duration with one of the par
ties interested, whose gray hairs will
ere long be mo'stened by the clammy
deys OF death.
LoronZ lIarte, relic Of the Grand
Army Of the first Napoleon, now an in
mate Of the Cook County Poor House,
had an interview with the Prince
County Agent Hansen, learning the
wish Of the old soldier, kindly convey
ed him TO the fremont. His card was
sent to the Princes apartments and the
old man, bowed down with the weight
OF eighty years, was ushercd into the
august presence.
The Prince arose to receive bis re-
marllabIe guest. There they stood,
for moment looking each other in the
tacc-the second heir to the French
crown and the Scared and br0nzcd
veteran Of a score Of battles. Advance
ing, the Prince graspod the Old mans
hand, and conducting Him to y seat,
spoke so kindly that the veterans heart
overtlowcd, and he burst into tears.
To those at all acquainted with the
history Of the NapoIeonic dynasty,

For .hc Reporter.
The Right Man VS.. the Wrong One.

Down with the man whose claims are based
On titled fools assumptions
Give me the man that deems, instead,
His claims but base presumption,
Who stands erect, UnaWcd, unchecked
Without sign Of bending,
And will not quail in any gllc,
Opposing or impending.
Down with tile man whose rule Of right
Succumbs to others reason;
Who tamcIy Yields aad shirks the fight
When fighting Is in season.
Give me the arm that nobIy darcs-
Whatever odds oppose it
To battle strong against wrong,
And battling oyerhrows il.
Down with tic man who vows to-day,
And breaks his VOW tomorrow;
Who shifts his sail tor every gale,
Its passing breath to borrow
Give me the craft, stauach fore and aft,
With hchusman stout and wary;
Her onward track he scorns to tack,
Though tides and breezcs vary.
Down with the man whose thoughts and deeds
Are always sccond-handed
Who does not drcam-'tvouII almost sceHl-
Except as he's commanded;
Who serves lord, in Thought and word,
All instant to adore him,
While he agrees as W0rshp-fces,
TO do his thinking for him.
Down with the man Of poison breath,
Of words as sweet as honey,
Who sIyly works, by smiles and smirks,
For favor, power or money.
Give me the man who speaks the truth,
Let who will be offended;
4 crowds applause is trifing loss,
I'Hcre colsnaacc has commaa4cL
