ANECDOTES OF THE EAPERoR NAPOLEON.-
With the future Emperor of France, when an
exile in England, l had been well acquitted. He
had been a constant subscriber TO Her Majesty
Theatre, was a frequent guest at my house, and
had "assisted" at the afternoon fetes given by
me at my residence, "The Chancellor's," at Full
ham, where he had entered heart and soul into
the amusements of the hour. Frequenters Of
these cbampetres" entertainments may re-
member one occasion when Prince Louis Ma
poeon figured in the same quadrille with
Taglioni. Garlic, and Carlotta Grisi having
the director Of Her Majesty's ThSatre as his
ris.a-riS.
The Prince and l frequently dined in company
at Gore House, the residence of the late Countess
of BlessipgtOn, where all that was distinguished
in literature and art was constantly assembled
and il may be wor h recording, in connection
with the Princes known firm reliance on his
destiny, that at one Of these dinners, when Count
d'OrsRy was eXpatiatiug on the evidences that
had come before him of the popularity of the
Prince in France (alrhough, at that time, the law

What is expected Of Morgan ?
IFrom the Richmond Dispatch, Feb. ].

The country looks forward with high
hone to the future movements OF General
Morgan. II he had incentives to great en-
terprise before in his ardent patriotism and
extraordinary energy, he has motives nos
which will add tenfold vigor to his resolu-
ton and fire his heart. The ignominy OF
his treatment in Columbus, and the cruel
treatment, resul ing in the death OF one OF
the best and bravest of their number, which
has been inflicted upon his imprisoned com.
rades i'll consequence of his escape, call
trumpet tongucd for vengeance.
His nature is too exalted and noble to
visit that vengeance upon the weak and
defenceless-upon women, children and old
men-after the fashion of the cowardly ga
wages among our enemies who have made
mankind blush for their crimes. Butevery
legitimate method Of retaliation he is bound
to accomplish by every dictate of self
respect, of justice t. bis outraged compa
Mons in Columbus, and last, though not
least, of public policy. We are dealing
with foe who can only be notified BY the
most vigorous measures, and, and who rs
governed ., fear rather than kindness
At the same time, We expect from Gen.
Morgan the greatest caution and prudence
for all the craft and subtiety that the most
internal maiignity can suggest will be en-
ployed to entrap and destroy him. The
whole country says Gcd speed to the glo-i-
Gus cavalier Of the Wests May he pay back
with compound interest every wrong his
,cnnnraffes and himself heve received, and
.,chieSe new glories for his immortal name

HEADQUARTERS. DEP. WEST Va.
Februarv II 1894

Captured private letters from persons
within the rebel lines contain much curious
and interesting information in relation to
the serious difficulties resulting from the
enforcement of the rebel Couscription law.
These letters tell of daily encounters be-
tween citizens and soldiers. Some of the
letters refer to cases where the encounters
have been attended with loss of life. All
the letters refer to the enforcement of the
consumption, and speak Of it generally in
anything but favorable manner.
General George Crooke, from the Army
of the Cumberland, arrived in this depart
ment last night. 1t is reported that he will
be assigned to the command Of the troops
lately under the charge Of the csptured
General Scsmmon. Gen. Crooke's presence
in this department is hailed with much
pleasure. --------------

The Administration is resolved to wate

The Administration is resolved to watch
it's own little egg in these hot times. LIE,
the globe split, still it is just as we'll to see
that the dinner pot is on the FIRE, and the
President has bis aspirations cooking uI
very nicely. 1t is not eye of newt or toe
of frog, nor finger of birth.strangled babe,
to make the Cruel thick and slab, but the
teeth and toe-nails of negro, bubbline
with the remains of defunct Generals and
disabled politicians.
A particular sauce just now wanted is
the butchered remains Of Gen. Grant, who
has, unfortunately deserved some applause
Grant is a sort of big bull in the pen, and
the tauridors are rather timorous about at
tackiug him. They see very clearly that
he must be got into the shambles. How il
it to be done?
All whs have read of the bull fights in
Spain, know that it is commenced by anum
ber of nimbls fellows who futter irritating
red flags in the bulls face. OF course nc
bull whose nerves are not Of iron can brook
such treatment, and the animal plunge.
around until be is in fair way to receive
the coup de grace Something of the came
kind is to be tried on Grant.
Sometime since Gel. Grant made state
ments respecting Gen. MClernand's action
amounting to disobedience of orders, inso
lent vanity, and the useless destruction O.
a thousand lives. He was ignominously
removed from his command, and We can see
no other meaning than disapproval o
Grants course in discharging him
1t is to be supposed that this little Incl
dent In the way of red flag huttered ir
Grants face will arouse his angry passions
1t is further said that Grant has not beer
sustained in other respects as he had right
to expect. That the same tormenting, vex
atious, petty interferences which have pre-
ceded the dismissal of every other abl.
General have begun towards him. Hallecl
(what miserable, little contemplate crime
has inflicted that unmentionable insect up
on the country?) is advising, demonstrating
ss he did with Rosecrans and Mcclellan
The object is the same: to throw Grant in
to towering passion, and make him com
nit some outrage, some error In his resent
ment; or with the hope of gradually widen
ing the breach and gathering causes OF dis
missing him.-Lou. Dem.
