theimperial household he was informed
that from that day it would be his duty
to watch over the safety of Louis Napo
leon, to accompany him everywhere
abroad and at home, except in the int.
rior of the palace; and that no one
would be allowed to approach the per.
son of the Emperor without his having
been informed of the desire beforehand.
During the Emperor's travels in the
provinces, the gems d'armes and the po.
lice were to be only under his orders,
and all responsibility would rest upon
his shoulders.
Thus it was that the poor illiterate
boy came to live in intimacy with the
sovereign of our day, and the Corsican
shepherd became the secret agent Of the
Emperor, who employed bin in some
of the gravcst affairs and most start.

Statistics of Human Life.

According to a French statisticiar,
taking the mean of many accounts,
man 80 years Of age has slept 6,oOO days'
worked $500, walked 500 days, amused
himself 1000 days, was eating 1900
days, was sick 500 days etc. He ate
II, 900 pounds of bread, 10000 pounds of
meat, 1900 pounds of vegetables, eggs
and fish, and drank 1000 gallons of Ii
quld, namely, water, coffee, tea, beer,
wine, etc., all together. This would
make respectable lake of three hun
dred square feet surface and three feet
deep, on which a smallsteamboat could
navigate. And all this solid and liquid
material passing through a human be-
ing in 50 years! Verify there is after
all some truth in the story Of the ogre
who drank lake dry, TO catch the fu-
gitives that were sailing over it. ANY
man can do the same-only give him
time!
This estimate is, however, made for
Frenchman. For an American we
have to modify it, by lessening the
number of days he devotes to amuse-
ments, and in place of this substitute
900 days for quietly speculating how
to get more of the almighty dollar, l.
500 days for travelling by steam and
horse power, and 200 days for waiting
for means of transportation. The latter
number is by no mesns over estimated
for the inhabitants of New YORK or
Philadelphia, or other large cities OF
the Union.
