Napoleon's Downfall.

On the fifteenth day of July the EN-
peror of France declared war against
Prussia. On the second of September
his armies were annihilgted and himself
prisoner in the hands OF the PrussiGn
King. Never since war began to be
made has there been such military spec
tace. 1t is not the overthrow of bar
barous nation by the discipline of vet
eran army the Roman against the
Gaul, the English against the effete Ori-
entail Indian nations or the Chinese.-
France was on every hand accounted
the first military power on earth. Her
system has been the model on which the
American army has been patterned. She
was regarded, at least until within few
years, as the strongest and most mex
pugnable of the nations of Europe. The
colony of Algeria was school OF practice
for her armies. Her founderies, shops
and yards were Supposed to be nDeaqual-
ed, and her iron7elad navy bade fair to
dispute the supremacy of the sea, even
with her island neighbor.
Prussia, too, especially since the war OF
1855 against Austria, has bees deemed
a tirst-class military power, end ne great
er compliment could have been paid, un-
til now, to her reputation, than that IT

GIVE GOOD FOR EvIL.-"W nen l was
little girl,'' says a lady, 81 learned
gool lesson. One frosty morning l was
looking out Of window into my faith
er'5 farm yard, where stood many COWS,
oxen and horses, waiting for drink.
The morning was very cold, the animals
stood meek and quiet, till one OF the
cows wanted to move and tried to turn
round. In trying TO do this she hit her
Geightor; whereupon that one kicked,
and hit the one next to her. In five
minutes ile late peaceful congregation
of animals was in great turmoil, iur;ogs-
ly kicking and butting each other. My
mother laughed, and said, see what
coGes of kicking when your hit just 80
have / seen one cross word set whole
family by the ears Afterwards, if my
brothers or myself were cross or irrita-
BILE, she would say, Take care, my chill
dren. remember how the fight in the
straw yard began; never give back
kick for lit, and you will save yourself
and Others good deal of trouble"

A GooD HEART.-Ihere was great
master among the Jews, who bid his
scholars consider and tell him what was
the best way wherein man should al
ways keep. Que came and said there
was nothing better than good eye;
which is in their language, a liberal and
contented disposition. Another said
good companion was the best thing in
the world. A third said a good neigh,
Dor was the best thing he could desire;
and fourth preferred man that could
forsee things TO come-that is, wise
person. But, at last, came in one Eleaz-
er, and he said good heart was better
than them all. "True," said the master,
'thon bast comprehended in two words
all that the rest have said for he that
hath good heart will be both content
ed, and good companion, and a good
neighbor, and easily see what is fit to be
done by him." Let every man then seri.
ously labor TO find in himself a sincerity
and uprightness of heart at all times,
and that will save him abundance OF
other labor.

Select Poetry.
Fading Beauty.

The green Is fading from each leaf,
The flowers die on the hill
The whispering winds have almost hushed
The murmering of the rill
The sun that lit the earth with gold,
While sinking TO its rest,
Has hung a crimson banner out
To brighten up the west.
The song-birds, too, have ceased 10 sing
Among the fading flowers,
And left requiem signing there
For summers dying hours
And even Nature seemed to mourn,
To watch bright moments die,
Yet fading beauty fingers on
Each leafet floating by.
How can they say the summer time
Is sweeter than the fall
Oh are not autumn's withered leaves
More beautiful than all
And can the bright blush of the rose,
However soft and fair,
Be half as lovely as the touch
OF dying beauty there
Oh no-let others weep TO see
The beauteous summer fade
There is sweeter charm for me
In autumns mellow shade
The whitening flowers that droop and die
Each sere and yellow leaf
Seems but an emblem of this life,
So fading and so brief
The flush must fade from every cheek.
The lustre from each eye,
And all things beautiful must fade,
For all were made 10 die !
The smile must leave the laughing lip,
And joyous hours depart,
For Deaths cold touch at last will chill
The fountain of the heart

WARNIyG TO YoUNG MES.-Charles Lamb

would l cry out to all those who set foot
in the periious Good. Could the youth
10 whom the flavor of the first wine is
as delicious as the opening scenes of life,
or the entering upon some newly discov-
cred paradise, look into my desolation,
and be made to understand how drear it
is when he shall feel himself going down
precipice, with open eyes AID pas: /.
i've will, to his destruction, and have no
human power to stop it, and yet feel it
all emanating from himself; TO see all
godliness emptied out OF him, and yet
not be able to forget time when it was
otherwise to bear the piteous spectacle
of his own ruin could he see my fever
ed eye, fevered with the last nights
drinking, and feverishly looking for to-
nights repeating the folly could he but
feel the body out of which | cry hourly
with teebler outcry to be delivered, it
were enough to make him dash the
sparkling beverage to the earth, in all the
pride Of its mantling temptation"

War Department Of France, and Of bad man
agement in the field, when an army inferior in

by secondrate generals, themselves bampercd

But one thing irradiates the gloem Of this
great disaster to France and that is fic bril-
liant courage andselfdevotion Of her soldiers.
The generals have won no laurels, but Che sdl-
diers, over-matched, poorly handled, not well
conditioned, under series of terrible defeats,
sustained themselves TO the very last with un.
conquerable heroism. They have renewed and
added TO the laurels of The soldiers Of the First
Empire.
We shall not attempt to lift the curtain which
cenceals the future, or even TO premise the
probable near events. Prussia has emerged
in mid d-Europe like a mountain in the sea, and
disturbed the level of all the adjacent waters.
b It we believe her mission is one of peace
and not of war. We do not believe that the
German people will care for conquest. They
will build now great nation into that unity
for which the bes; spirits of her race have
been longing, and striving, for hundreds Of
years. If let alone they will dwell at peace.
1t is not likely that after sadowa, Gravelotte,
and Sedan, they will be eargerly molested.
Yesterday France inspired Europe; and eve
ry nation was wasting its life blood in military
expenses. Glory built on force was the rage.
To-day, Prussia predomnates. We may
expect to see armies melting away, men con-
tent at labor, states building up their people
by education and by thrifty industry. The
Lord has entrusted the headship of Europe 10
a people whose race-mission it has always
been to develop freedom, intelligence, and
pure spiritual religion !-Beecher.
