Nnpolcons Life AT Chlsclhurst.

The. chateau in which the ex.imperial
family have resided since the disasters
of the empire las been the exposure of
the eyes OF Europe. Although living
like u private gentleman, surrounded
only by the ordinary comforts Of pri.
vate family, avoiding display and de-
voting himself to the education OF his
son and heir. every movement of the
Emperor has been jealously watched,
and every expression that has come
from him through voice or pen lRs been
scrutiuized ms carefully MS il upon his
utteranCe depended the fate Of nations.
The aristocracy, from the Queen down
words have never failed to recognise the
character Of the distinguished exiles,
and by all means in their power they
have sought to amcliorate their unhnp-
py condition. Tho family has been
the recipient of the most generous
courtesies, ind no doubt the British
heart is TO day tllrobbing with warm
sympathy for the noble and bereaved
Eugene, whose womanly traits MS wife,
mother, Empress and citizen endeared
her to all who came within the scope Of
her heroism and influence.

What an Engineer ,l Did,

Some years ago, SO the story runs,
and is told by m Indiana paper, there
was q well.known engineer, who ran q
passenger train on one OF the railroads
That run out to indianapolis, AT Ger.
tain place on the road, every night for
about week, as the passenger train
run by this engineer came laundering
along, it was certain to DO thrown from
the track by distractions placed there.
Several Of these mishAps to the train
caused loss OF life, and the company
wns becoming considerably alarmed,
and the ability of the engineer was be-
ing seriously questioned. One night,
MS the unfortunate trainwas nearing the
fatal spot, the engineer, who had been
sitting glum and silent ut the throttle,
turned TO his fireman and said F:
III this train Jumps the truck to-
night, yon follow me don't stop fol
anything, but keep close after me,
Somebody Inns been throwing this train
off tho track, and Tin going to catch
him" s.r d,
When the train arrived at the usual
place, It struck misplaced rail, aud
was banked. The engineer, closely fol-
lowed by the fireman, jumped from the
engine, and ran into corntield, and
started up man TINT lay concealed
there. Upon bringing the culpr.t back
to the wreck, the enraged passengers
wanted to lynch him, but the engineer,
n stern, cool, determined man, prevent
ed them, saying that he would take
charge OF him, and, through the inter
cession of the conductor, tho trembling
wretch was left in charge of the en-
gineer The train was rightel, and was
soon speeding on its way. The prison
or, who had confessed his flenlishness,
Ind been seated on the engine, and the
fireman placed beside him MS GUARD.
When tile train WIS Ona smooth piece
of truck, bowling along at tho speed oil
twenty-five miles an hour, the engineer
beckoned the fireman to stand cut o.
the way. The fireman stepped aside,
and the engineer picked up stick Of
wood and Struck the criminal such b
blow upon tho head that 1t stunned
him. He then caught the quiyering
form of the poor wretch, and, opening
the furnace doors, threw his body into
the hot, seething hell Of flame. The
doors were shut, the train ratified on,
and never, until upon his dcath-bed,
the engineer confessed the net, WINS II
nsccrtained what Ind been the fate Of
the fiend who had been in the habit Of
throwing the train Off the track.

Our Growth and Habit.

Statistics show that within the last
decade in our larger towns the deposits
in the savings banks have increased
tlireefold, and, what is equally signifl-
cant and gratifying, the number Of de-
pOsitors las increased about the same
ratio.
In the country towns aud on the farms
the population isHOt increasing. The
towns are filling up ut the expense of
the rural districts. The mills sand shops
and tho counting rooms arc taking
the best brains from tho farms. This
is tile natural result Of our manufacture
ing progress, md to certain extent is
not perhaps TO bedeplored. '.i.H
The robust women Of former days are
becoming obsolete. The number Of
children who die in infancy is increas.
ing; the prudence Of the olden timo is
given away to falser notions of life.
We must till less land md till it bet
ter. There must DO more flowergardens
less monotony OH the fnrms and more
peaceful surroundings. The country is
the place, after all, iorpurc enjoyment.
The one great drawback is that our poo.
pie will not be MS economical MS they
ought to he. There is too much spent
upon dress there is not that frugality
in housekeeping which would conduce
alike to health and comfort. We laye
not yet learned to live well and cheaply,
and this remark applies to almost every
household in tho lRnd. Our girls are
not brought up to understand and to do
Homework there nrc too many servants
in the house, and there are servants
where it would be much better that
there were none.

NapOleon in America.

There are citizens still living in New
York who remember the squat figure
and solemn, half-melancholy mir OF a
strange FrenChman WHO arrived in
America as long ago us 1887. He soon
became known as Louis Napoleon,
nephew Of the great Emperor, whose
death lately took place in England, but
there was nothing in his course OF life
here which indicated the great power
which he was in q few years afterwards
TO possess or stamped him as moro than
nm ordinary gentleman of leisure. !,
He resided in Hoboken, in q small
sparsely furnished room, and the table,
bed and chairs which le used are still
preserved there by the keeper Of his
boarding house rs a memento Of his
distinguished guest. He devoted him
self, while thus situated, to study, III
though it is stated that he saw not q
little Of the interior life OF the city after
nightfall. -.
Ii will be remembered That the ex.
Emperor had made m attempt OF
revolution and failed, wheroupon he
selected America, as Louis Philippe
had done before him, as an asylum and
place of refuge. He remained but q
short time, and devoted himself to the
study Of American politics, our arts,
sciences and inventions.
He was particularly interested in the
development Of electro magnetism, and
one Of his first acts after the coup detd'
Of December Q was the ofiererof mag
nificent premium for any decided i'm
proyement in cleGtro-mRgnetism.
1t was believed that Napoleon intend
ed to remain in America for number
Of years, md he had already planned q
tour Of exploration to the central md
western portions of the continent, when
lie received letter summoning him Ia
the bedside of his dying mother. He
therenponreturned to Europe, but arriv.
ed only Just in time to receive her last
blessing and close her eyes in death.

Romanism, and she Inns placed her

which went on board tho Princeton to

gun. Mrs. Tyler (tllen Miss Gardner,
Of New York; and her father were OF
the party. She, with other ladies, after
witnessing the firing, left that part of
the vessel, but her father and other
gentlemen fingered. One more shot
was fired and tile gun bursted, Mr..
Gardner being one Of those killed. That
night six dead bodies were hid out in
the East Room Of tho White House. Not
long afterwards Miss Gardner became
