Victor Emanuel by Alexander
Dumas.

The following sketch of the King of
Sardinia, is from the pen of Alexander
Dumas, appears in the independents of Ma
pies:
Victor Emanuel, who appears like man
Of about forty years ofage, is frank, sincere,
temperate, an early riser, and a keen
sportsman with the dog and gun. He bears
the fatigue of a long days shooting, better
than many of the hardest mOuntaineers,
and he generally starts On such excursions
before sunrise. lie makes a very light
breakfast, merely piece of bread and a
slice Of meat or cheese, which lie eats like
II peasant, without sitting at table but he
always makes hearty dinner, laying aside
all etiquette without court or chamber
lains.
On Sunday, the day of general reception
at the palace, the doors are thrown open at
eleven o'clock, and anybody who feels dis
posed may enter until three. If any per
son desires private audience, he must
apply By letter, and on the morrow, or fol
lowing day, ne will surely obtain it, for
Victor Emanuel opens all his letters him
self.
One day, when out shooting, he met q
peasant, who seeing the King laying down
two cartridges, right and left, with his
double barreled gun, went up to him, and
said
" You shoot pretty well, you do"
" 1t was not miss. was it ?" responded
the King.
- Perhaps you could rid me of fox
that steals my hens"
. Most willingly"
. If you do, will give you two mute"
Agreed" said the King. q will
come to morrow morning with my dog, and
shoot YOUR fox.
"Give me your hand on it," said the
man.
The King Immediately shook hands with
him, and true to his word, went next NOR
ming. found the fox and shot it.
Z" Thank God, for that" exclaimed the
peasant, you have fairly earned your1wo
mute, and here they are"
The King took them, and said.
g This is the first money | ever earned
Then tossing the pieces in his hand, he
added, 1t is a pleasure to receive money
one has fairly earned"
The next day, in return fer the two
mute, His majesty sent dress, necklace
and ear rings for tho PEASANTS wife.
1t is impossible to be more easy of &c
cess than Victor Emanuel is. He goes
out alone, on foot, and enters the theatre
at the public door. One day, tho porteress
of the 1ngennes Theatre caugh, gentle
man in the act Of putting the smoke Of his
cigar at her cat, which he had found in n
corner and kept there. Rushing forward
to rescue her favorite, she seized the tor
mentor by the arm, and on his turning
around she recognized the King.

KembIe and the Debutanfe.

At the time when the celebrated KEN
bic was manager of the Covent Garden
Theatre, gentleman called to confer with
him about an engagement Of his only
daughter. 1t so happened that Kemble
expected, about the same hour the visit Of
a horse dealer from whom he wished to
buy mare. Kemble, imagining the
stranger was the expected householder
asked at once:
"lIuw old is she ?''
Elm May last she was sixteen"
''low? Sixteen? Rather old. Ahem.

MUSCULAR STRENGTH When the mus
cles are called into action, the flow of blood
in the arteries and veins is increased The
increased flow Of blood in the arteries and
veins, causes more rapid deposition of
the particles Of matter of which the mus
cies are composed. If the exercise is
adequate to the power of the system, the
deposit of new material will exceed in
quantity the PARTICLES of matter removed
and both the size and energy OF the muscles
are increased. But there Is a limit to the
muscles becoming strong by labor. Sooner
or later, man will attain his growth or
power; yet by judicious exercise, care and
discreet management, the greatest power
of the muscles may be preserved until adj
yanded age.

How careless, forgetful.

When the hopes we have tasted
Are lost, We deplore,
And sigh for time wasted,
We ne'er may see more
Reyolying-rvpenting-
Still day after day,
Whilst angels lamenting,
Drop tears on cur way
Could man read times pages
Record every scene!
He'd find through Life's stages,
How Oft he had been
Too full Of inventions
To satisfy thou yht-
Too rife with intentions
still taxing 70 morrow,
StIl wasting to-day
Whilst angels in sorrow,
Dropped tears on his way.

"LET ME CO."
Let me go-tbe stars are paiing,

And the misty clouds sailing,
Tell the breaking Of the Day

Let me go-the stars are paiing,
One 10y one. in light away,
And the misty clouds sailing.
Tell the breaking Of the Gay.
Upward, see. the mists are wreathing,
Ger the hillinps white as snow;
Ripping winds are softly breathing;
bay adyanceth--let me go.
And the spirits Of the morning
Streak with gray the eastern sky.
Hold for 1 would see thee dawning
Fair and ciOudless ere die.
1t is fading-whiter-w
Pearly as an infants breast,
Clearly see its beaming, brighter,
Like the memories Of the best.
Kindred spirit-voices call me-
See they fade in light away;
Earth no longer may enthrall me,
Let me go, ere breaks the day.
Nearer now the morn advanceth;
Brighter grows the glorious dawn;
Love and joy my soul entranceth,
Glorious morning, hasten on
On the Hill ofGod there standeth,
A temple formed of living light;
Pure and bright It's light expandeth,
Scattering FAR the gloom OF night.
Earth-born scenes at most are ieeting,
Vanishing like tropic snow,
Rapturous joys are now returning,
bay advanceth-let me 60.
