PRINCE NAPOLEON.
Grating" :" in the Dynasty.

A correspondent of the Liverpool Post
writes to that journal in the following
term1.
The only members of the Bonaparte
family who have shown the slightest
dignity in their fall are the Emperor
Empress and Princess Clothilde. Prince
Napoleon may be very clever scholar
and judge of art, but his chief talents
seem to lie in the direction of taking
care Of number one. At the first blush
of danger his household treasures were
packed off to his estate in Switzerland,
in a manner which would lead lookers-on
to imagine that the fomgons contained
articles for the sick and wounded of the
army He coolly left his wife and child
and other relatives in Paris, while on a
diplomatic pretextw blinded no one,
he hurried off from Metz to Florence.
Both by the French soldiers and the
Italian populace Plon-Plon was ever
scowled at with contempt, and he
scarcely ventured to show himself to the
public ever since he left Paris. His wife,
when all was lost to tho Bonapartes, qui-
etly left Paris for Switzerland. She was
the only member of the Imperial dynasty
for whom the populace of Paris had the
slightest regard, though the courage and
self-respect maintained by the Empress
up to the very moment when she set out
for Belgium, in solitary dignity, excited
the mingled pity and admiration Of even
her political enemies. As for the Corsi
can bravo-Prince Bonaparte-the hero
of the affair at Auteuil, he quickly scent
ed danger from afar, and after organiz-
ing corps Of Corsican brigands to raise
another Jacquerie ip France, he went off
to Belgium, where he must have added
to the utter humiliation Of the fallen En-
peror by sniveling oyer him at railway
station.
The Princess Mathilde, on whom her
good-natured cousin had showered wealth
and honors, also in the hour of danger
forgot every feeling of relationship and
gratitude and instead of aiding and
assisting the over-taxed and wearied En-
press, she "bGltad of with nearly one
hundred trunks of money and valuables
TO Dieppe, where she was arrested Of
course, when the Imperial family made
sduse qpf peut, nobody could expect
anything better from the crew of adven-
turers and fattereFs, enriched by the
foolish generosity and good nature of
the Emperor, who, with all his faults,
was never shabby or ungratefui to old
friends.
At his utmost need, however, the Pie
iris, Cassagnacs, Lebeufs. Rouhers, for
sock the sinking ship, hoping 20 live
long anouph In hatten on and discfedit
other rulers of brave but unfortunate
France. Whatever may be the faults Of
the Republican politicians of Paris, they
are at least courageous, honest and con
sistent; ever ready to avow their opin-
ions, and to suffer for them. Jules
Favre and his friends have inherited a
fearful legacy from Louis Napoleon, but
whatever betide, one can believe them
when they swear never to despair OF the
Republic

iIThe nineteenth century would see tins
friehtful eyent--an orderly nation be-
come savage, abolishing the city Of ma
tons; Germans extinguishing Paris;
the German raising the AK over the
Gaul. You, the descendants OF Teuton-
ic knights, make war unfairly; you ex-
terminate the group of men and Of ideas
which the world needs; you abolish the
organic city; you recommence Attilla
and Alaric; you follow Omar, in burn
ing the Library Of mankind; you raze
the Hotel de Vile as the Huns razed the
Capitol you lombard Notre Dame as
the Turks bombarded the Pantheon;
you present to the world this spectacle;
the Germans again become Vandals,
and you will be barbarism decapitating
civilization.
No, no, mol -,
Do you know what this victory would
be to you? it would be your dishonor.
Ali surely no one can think OF
frightening you Germans, glorious army,

it is not shame, it is not fear.

Mol Paris will not be destroyed. If it
is destroyed materially it will argument
morally. Fling Paris to the four winds
and you will only make each grain of
that dust the seed of the future. That
sepulcher will cry: Liberty, Equality,
fraternity Paris is city, but Paris is
a soul. Burn our edifces, they are only
our bones their smoke will take shape,
and will become enormous and living,
and will mount up to heaven; and there
will be seen on the horizon of peoples,
above us, above you, above all and every
thing, attesting our glory, attesting your
shame that great speeter of darkness
and of light, Paris.

The Crown Prince Of Prussia is per-
sonally most humane man. There is
an anecdote related Of him to the follow
ing effect: As on the 10th of August he
entered st. Mihiel, with his army, he
took residence with part of bis staff on
the first floor Of the City Hall, the next
floor above being occupied by the Marie,
whose wife had given birth to boy.
The Crown Prince heard Of the event.
and at once sent his regret at bringing
such disquiet into the house at such a
time. He repeated his inquiries after
the welfare Of the lady the same eve
ming, when the Marie said that his wife
thanked His Royal Highness for the
grace shown them, and both would con-
slider it high favor if he would allow
their frst-born to bear the name of the
German victor. The Crown Prince
laughed and said be had no objection if
they would enter his name as the god
father in the city baptismal book, promis-
ing, however the war might turn out. he
would always bear his godchild in mem
ory. The child was christened, and now
bears the name of Frederick Wilhelm.
The Crown Prince, on leaving, presented
the good lady with valuable pin, and
his godchild with fifty ducats.

PRUSSIAN ARABS.
The Ubiquitous UhIans-HOw they
Travel and are Sometimes Caught.
Chicago Times Translation from French.

THE UHLAS.
He is already the property of legend;
but he has renewed his virginity. Our
fathers knew the Uhlan, but his glory
was disputed by the Cossack.
To-day the Uhlan occupies the first
place. His distinctive character is ubi
guilty. One sees him everywhere; he
appears, disappears, reappears, conceals
himself He is seen flying like the
wind; he is the cavalier surprises. A
tree, sod, tuft Of grass, all serve him
for hiding-place, He renews every
moment the miracle of the man who
could conceal himself in snuf-box.
The same may be said of hishorse and
lance He is an equestri3h clown who
travels over the theater of war A tree
as large as your arm will conceal dozen
Uhlans. They become fantastic from
their ability to become invisible.
You sweep the horizon with the most
powerful glasses, and you will not dis
cover q single living soul; instantly
there is a tremendous clatter, and a
Uhlan dashes by He pushes ahead at
laundering gallop, with a pretext of
clearing the route If he comes to
village he reconnoiters it; if he reaches
a city, he captures it.
He is brave, resolute, intrepid, but al
ways little giddy. He demands hun
dred thousand rations. If they furnish
them, he accepts them; if they do not,
he generally goes on without them. He
is always going to return the next day
with 100000 men, but he never comes
back.
Sometimes, however, the Uhlans meet
their match. A short time since Gen.
Marguerite was sent on reconnois-
sance with four squadrons of the first
regiment of African chasseurs. Arriv-
ing near a small village, he was informed
that body Of Prnssians, led by some
Uhlans. was in the place. His plan was
at once taken He dashed into the town
at a gallop at the head of his cavalry,
but to his great surprise he didn't find
single Prussian. Having gone through
the town, he was about to retire, when
some one told him that at a certain inn
there were to be found some Prussian
cavalry. He pushed straight for the
hotel, but the inn-keeper, putting his
nose from an upper window-it was in
the night-said there we're no Prussians
in the house.
open the door, thundered the Gen
eral. He hesitated, and the chasseurs
at once broke it down.
But the first man who entered received
a pistol ball in his forehead, and fell
dead. There were concealed within
forty Uhlans. The Chasseurs threw
themselves into the apartment, and
savage hand TO hand fight occurred. In
the melee Gen. Marguerite found himself
face TO face with PFHssian officer, who
leveled at him tremendous blow with
his saber. The General parried it, and
responded with riposfe, and ran his
opponent through the body.
During this time the Chasseurs had
brought the others to terms. Two Off
GERS and twenty-five priyates were made
prisoners, and taken to Metz. All the
others had been killed. The whole
party. including their horses, had con-
cealed themselves in the inn.

Oh silvery moon so fair, so bright,
Pray tell me, did you see last night
My love and me?

And, by your light, sweet VOWS we made,

You saw, Oh, moon the pledge he gave
To others but simple wave

To me it was fetter strong

Might enter there.
Dear moonl did you not hear me say,
When you shall come, year to-day,
I'll show y0H this?
And witness it shall be of all
Our vows, and faithfully recall
