NapOIeon ON the WAY 10 England.

The MeuSe. of Liege, gives the follow
ing details of the passage OF the ex-
Emperor of the French through that
city: " Napoleon III. arrived, as we
announced, at quarter 10 ! III the
evening, at the station OF Les Guile
Minis, coming from Cassel, on the way
for Ostend. The special train was com
posed of nine carriages-tour for pas
sengers, three luggage vans and two
travelling coupes. lie was in the dill
gence of the Count de Flandre, in which
he had already made the transit from
Libramont to Cassel, after the battle OF
Sedan. His suite consisted of about
thirty persons. The Princess Mathilde,
another lady and two other personages
had quilted Brussels at p. IL. to meet
him at Herbesthal. At this last station
these persons took their places in the
carriage with the ex-Emperor and ac-
companied him to Malines. The train
halted for few minutes in our station.
Napoleon H.. seated in an armchair,
appeared to be dosing. He wore Cen
erals uniform, covered by cloak. lie
seemed in good health, only his hair
has become considerably winter The
Princess Mathilde was in deep mourn
ing. One of our contributors who was
on the spot, having had occasion to
exchange few words with the Prince
de la Moskowa, communicated the con-
tents of the dispatches received relative
to the events in Paris. The Prince i'm
mediately alighted and FASTENED to The
door Of the carriage occupied by the
Emperor. A few moments after the
Imperial compartment, which had been
previously almost dark, became illumi-
mated, and Napoleon was seen reading
the dispatches by the light of wax
candle. His countenance remained inn
passable, as usual, but not so that of his
companions, to whom the news must
have given great satisfaction. At five
minutes after eleven the train again
started. We may add that it reached
Malines towards one III the morning,
and stopped there TO change the loco
motive. The Princess Mathilde and
her suite alighted at Malines from the
train coming from Herbesthal After
having exchanged adieux with the
fallen Emperor, the Princess and her
companions got into special train to
return to Brussels. where they entered
the Northern station towards half-past
one"

The Dark Wood.

Upon an eve sat me down and wept,
Because the world TO me seemed nowlse good;
Still Autumn was IL, and the meadows slept,
The misty hills dreamed, and the silent WOOD
Seemed listening TO the sorrow Of my mood;
knew not if the earth with me did grieve'
Or if it Knocked my grief shat bitter eve.
Then 'twixt my tears a maiden did see,
Who drew anigh me Der the leai-strewn grass
Then stood and gaZed upon me pitifully
With gret-wOrn eyes, until my woe did pass
From me to her, and fearless now / was,
And she, m id tears, was asking me OF one
She long had sought unaided and alone.
Him / knew not of, and she turned away
Into the dark wood while my own great pam
Still held me there. till dark had slain the day'
And persisted at the great dawn's hand again.
Then from the wood IA voice cried, An, III vain
In vain | seek thee. o thou bitter sweet! a.,
In what lone land are set thy longed-for feet
Then looked up, and. 10, man there came
From midst the trees and stood regarding me
And once again my tears were dried Tor shame;
But he cried out, mOurner, where Is she
Whom have sought Ger every land ana sea
| love her, and she loveth me, and still =,
w C meet no more than green hill meeteth MIL
With that he passed on sadly, and / knew
That these had met, and missed, in the dark
night,
Blinded by blindness Of the world untrue,
That hideth love. and maketh wrong OF right.
Then midst my pity for their lost delight.
Y ct more with barren longing L grew weak
Yet more I mourned that l had none to seek.

he conceived his fatal idea of reform in
criminal jurisprudence.
As a recompense he was thrown into
prison-a prison in which even his UNI
fortunate companion avoided him or
heaped reproaches upon him. lie waited
death with resignation, almost with JOY,
when, onsthe 9th thermidor, the revolu'
ton which he had excited set him at
liberty. He then wanted to quit Paris
and seek an asylum in America, where
he anight live unknown, and escape the
curses that had been attached TO him in
so unjust a manner. But he was ordered,
in the name Of his country, to remain
in France and to devote the rest of his
life TO his fatherland. He could not re-
fuse, and then founded that celebrated
association known as LAcademie de
Medicine, which has done the world so
much service and is destined to do so
much more. Eminent places and hon
ors were offered to him, but he refused
them all, wishing TO eXpiate the crime
of what he had regarded as a benef-
cence, in obscure but useful citizenship.
Then he spread abroad the blessing Of
vaccination, he carried consolation from
garnet to garrett; and if he was not happy,
If one cruel thought consumed his soul,
he was at least of service in stopping
the tears of the poor people. And now,
my friend, can you still accuse Gull

young German.
Nothing can break down this preu-

" The injustice has lasted to this very
day, and it will be perpetuated from
year to year, from century TO century.
Ny name is immortal. but. great God
what an Immortality it is Never mind"
he said, after a moments thought in
silence, " never mind | will find Justice
in heaven, and am near heaven now.
There remains but little bitterness now
for these lips that have drank from the
cup Of sorrow so long

him. The young German, who returned
to Vienna the following year, thanks
to the old mans protection and assist

1t was the opinion of Sir Walter Scott that tn
following beautiful lines of Byron's are the bes
that erratc poet ever wrote, and stand prominen
among the poetic gems of literature:
There is a mystic thread of life,
So dearly wOve with mine alone
That destiny's relentless knife.
At once must sever both or none.
There is a form on which these eyes
Have often gaZed with fond delight;
BY day that form their JOY supplies.
And dreams restore il through the night.
There is voice whose tunes inspire
Such thrills of rapture through my breast.
l would not hear seraph choir
Unless that voice should join the rest
There IS Il face whose bushes tell
Affections tale upon the check.
But pallid at one fond farewell.
Proclaims more love than words can speak.
There is n lip which mine have pressed,
And none have ever pressed before
1t vowed TO make me sweetly blessed
And mine, mine only pressed it more.
There is a bosom all my own
Hath pllowod oft this aching head
And mouth which smiles on me alone
And eye whose tears with mine are shed.
There are two hearts whose movements thrill
In unison so closely sweet,
That pulse to pulse responsive still
They both must heavc or cease to beat.
There are two souls whose equal flow,
In gentle streams so calmly rum
That when they part. they part all no
They cannot part. these souls are one!

A Hint TO MeddlerS.

A little white rose bloomed all by her
self in a nook in the hedge.
" All" cried the wind in passing.
Z" what pity you should be sutiocated
there! | will blow a hole through the
hedge, and the breeze shall find you
through it.
" | pray, sir, you will leave me as |
am; | breathe well enough" said the
rose.
Il know better" said the wind, and
rent the hedge as he passed on, and the
boys rushed through, and made her
tremble
:" You are not we'll placed there" he
said, as he came by again - will give
you better berth than that
. beg you leave me as | am, | like
my place we'll enough, if it were not for
the gap you made" said the rose.
But the wind would not listen; he
broke her stem, and she fell to the
ground.
ooh, you mustn't lie there, !" he cried;
" | will carry you to spot that will suit
you exactly"
d" Nay, | entreat you to let me lie
and fade in this pleasant grass" said
the rose, beseechingly. But he caught
her up and whirled her on few yards,
when her petals were scattered, and her
leafless stem was east on the hedge.
How is this p exclaimed the wind.
How is it? This is how it is" re-
piled the hedge. There are some folks
that are never satisfied but when they
are meddling in other folks affairs; they
think nobody can be happy except in
their way and you are one Of them,
and this bare stem is II specimen OF
your work.

Death of Frederick the Great.

On the 18th. after a restless night. he
did not wake until eleven o'clock in
the morning. For a short time he
seemed confused. He then summoned
his generals and secretaries. and gave
his orders with all his wonted precision.
He then called IN his three clerks, and
dictated to them upon various subjects
His directions to an ambassador, who
was about leaving, filled four quarto
pages.
As night came on he fell into what
may be called the death-sleep. His
breathing was painful and stertorous ;
his mind was wandering in delirious
dreams his voice became inarticulate
At moment of returning conscious
ness he tried several times in vain to
give some utterdnce TO his thoughts
Then, with a despairing expression Of
cOuntenance, he sank back upon his
pillow. Fever flushed his cheeks. and
his eyes assumed some of their wonted
fire. Thus the dying hours were pro-
longed. as the friendless monarch. sur
rounded by respectful attendants, slow
ly descended to the grave.
His feet and legs became cold. Death
was stealing its way toward the vitals.
About nine o'clock Wednesday evening
painful cough commenced, with diff
Guilty Of breathing, and an ominous rat
tie in the throat. One of his dogs sat
by his bedside, and shivered with cold !;
the king made sign for them to throw
quilt over it.
Another severe fit Of coughing en-
sued, and the king, having with diff
Guilty got rid of the phlegm, said, . The
mountain is passed; we shall be better
now" These were his last words. The
expiring monarch sat in his chair, but
in a state Of such extreme weakness that
he was continually sinking down, with
his chest and neck so bent forward that
breathing was almost impossible. One
of his faithful Wallets took the king upon
his knee and placed his left arm around
his waist, while the king threw his right
arm around the Wallets neck
1t was midnight Within doors all
is silence around it the dark earth is
silent, above it the silent stars" Thus
for two hours the attendants sat mo-
tionless, holding the dying king, Not
word was spoken no sound could be
heard but the painful breathing which
precedes death.
At just twenty minutes past two
o'clock the breathing ceased, the spirit
took its flight, and the lifeless body
alone remained. Lies great battle was
ended, and the soul of the monarch
assembled to that dread tribunal where
prince and peasant must alike answer
for all the deeds done in the body. 1t
was the 18th of August, 1856. The
king had reigned forty-six years, and
had lived seventy-six years, six months,
and twenty-four days.-H@per's Mage

A Novel Situation.

\ young lady visiting in New York,
the granddaughter Of a Massachusetts
statesman, came home recently from
ball, and bidding her escort good night
at the house door, proceeded, as she
supposed. to her chamber
To her CONSERVATION, on turning up
the gas, she discovered number of
trifles scattered about that told as plain
ly as inanimate things could tell, that
she was in the apartment of q luxurious
young bachelor
At the moment of this discovery
she was Mortified to hear a heavy step
in the hall, which was apparently
coming toward the room into which
the young lady had SO unfortunately
blundered
Following the impulse Of her mind,
she locked the door on the inside, and
soon heard hand trying the lock. She
remained as quiet as summer day be-
fore shower, and in q moment heard
tempest of words issue from the entry,
which were evidently the upbraiding of
an elderly gentleman, addressed for too
frequently dissipating until the dawn
" chased the session Of the stars from
the night"
Receiving no answer, the voice gradll-
ally died away in the distance, with
plalntive murmurings about bringing
mothers hair in sorrow to the grave,
and then the young lady, quickly UNI
locking the door, glded noiselessly
down the stairs, through the front yes.
thule into the street, and thence to her
own house, which was the next one in
the block.
Now mark the sequel, which points
moral for all believers in black spirits
and white, red spirits and gray.
The possessor of the voice referred to
above-an elderly gentleman of unques-
toned respectability, and who was
never known to make a joke in his life
asserted that on q certain night, at
the hour when church-yards yawn and
graves give up their dead, he was
anXiously awaiting the arrival of his
son, when he heard the front door of his
residence open, and some one enter the
young gentleman room. He immedi.
ate.v descended to have an interview
with his boy, but he found the bedroom
door locked, and no response was there
to his knock.
Subsequently he saw sight that chill
ed his blood. A female form in shad-
owy robes glided out of the apart
ment and down the stairs, and about
an hour afterward his son came home
utterly ignorant of the mysterious oc.
currence.
After believing for time that there
were more things in heaven and earth
than are dreamed of in your philosophy.
pater familias was informed by the
pretty ghost herself how she inadvert.
emily placed herself in a delicate posi-
ton, and how her woman's wit got her
out of 1t.

The TRIBrLATIoNS OF AN Ex-CoNDUCToR.
The Fat Contributors" of the Gin
cinnati Times, has the following in re-
gard to an old conductor promoted to
train dispatcher: " Habit was very
strong with the eX-conductor. AS he
sat in the Office he would start every
time he heard bell ring and yell All
aboard. Then he would 90 about the
office at intervals and try to collect fare
of his assistants. We dropped in cas-
ually one afternoon, and Billy wanted
to know if we had pass. He couldn't
get accustomed to his new position at
all. He pinned to be again on the road.
One day he begged the boys to put him
through collision, which they did to
his entire qualification. They tore his
clothes nearly off, blackened his eyes,
broke Kerosene lamp over his head
and piled a rcd-hot stove on top of him.
Billy was in an ecstacy of delight, and
declared he hadn't enjoyed himself so
much since he had a bile
