by the way--was covered with foam and
refused to obey either whip or spur. Ma
poleon reached home safely, though
"bathei in perspiration." In the after
noon Griscelli was commanded to cap
ture Kelch. How this was effected let
his own words tell:
Herbert, Letourneur and l left the
room with directions to capture kelch
dead or alive. At six o'clock we ar
rived at Plesmaret's, where our man
was in the habit of coming every day to
take absinthe. Here we ordered dinner
for six persons. AT eight o'clock arrived
certain Morelli, who had arrived from
London to assist at the preparation OF
the Emperor. He asked Plesmaret
where Kelch was, and was told that he
would be there at 8 o'clock With that
hour came Kelch. While he was taking
his glass | ordered Letourneur to arrest
Morelli. Herbert and l seized upon
Kelch, who. Notwithstanding we were
two to one, escaped through the dining
room, the parlor, the bedrooms, jumped
through the window, and fell within the
outside wall, in which was door. Had
this door been open the assassin would
have been safe, and the watching OF
fifteen days lost. Not able to escape
that way, and perceiving that his crime
was known, Kelch, like sensible man,
wished to sell his life dearly He drew
and cooked pistol. / did likewise the
two explosions made a single sound. He
fell back bathed in blood my ball had
entered between the nose, forehead, and
right eye, and came out behind the left
ear; his whistled past my ear. His ac-
complice Morelli ran at the noise of fir
ing. While he was climbing the wall /
broke his left shoulder with my pistol y
The next day Griscelli was appointed
personal guardian of the Emperor, with
orders to accompany him everywhere.
Fulflling this duty he achieved the ar
rests of many conspirators, and in sever
al cases mentions their fate. 1t would
have been injudicious- least SO the
Emperor thought--for them to be tried,
and they therefore developed with re-
markable unanimity habit of commit
ting suicide by poison.

Encores.

The Boston Saturday Evening Gazette
has the following sensible remarks on
the habit of eneoring songs. Though
written for the latitude OF the "Hub,"
they can be read with profit in Burling-
ton:
"The abuse of encoring comes in
with the concert season, with all its
wonted vigor. Perhaps it is idle to re-
monstrate against it; ; but we are moved
to say another word of protest neverthe-
less. AS practiced in Boston, it is un-
Just both to performers and to many in
their audiences. We do not object to
hearty demonstrations of approval.
These indicate satisfaction that is
stimulating to artists, and places them
in pleasant relations with those whom it
it is their mission to entertain. In ex-
ceptional cases of general and obvious
delight, a repetition may be q graceful
and gracious favor which it is pleasant to
see conveyed. But this is widely differ
ent from the wholesale system of demand
ing repetitions that is becoming the hab-
it with portions Of Boston audiences.
They are not the most numerous por-
tions, but in the vigor OF their youth
and persistency, they succeed in making
noise out of proportion to their real
strength, and thus induce artists unwill-
ingly to acquiesce, and compel the bal
ance of audiences to submit. Do these
enthusiastic people realize that there is
culpable disregard OF good manners in
their proceedings We presume not, but
their ill-breeding is none the less mani
fest. To urge upon singer, who has
appeared and indicated a wish to be ex-
cused, the repetition of a difficult per-
formance, that if they knew anything of
music they would be aware has been
tax both upon mental and physical fac
ulties. is to perpetrate a boorish act,
which is not at all redeemed by the en-
forced acquiescence that may follow it.
Then the portions of the audience not
encoring have rights also, or at least are
entitled to courtesy. They came to hear
the programme. 1t may be that some of
the last things in it are what they most
desire to hear. They could hear it all if
the concert was kept within reasonable
limits. In some instances, being con-
fined to the cars as means for reaching
their residences, they are compelled to
leave long before it is completed, and
thus are deprived of what they paid
their money to listen to. In others they
are so wearied that they leave the con-
cert room in disgust at the unnecessary
and unreasonable prolongation of the
programme. We don't know how far it
is in the power of concertgivers to resist
this increasing unpleasant custom; but
we heartily wish there could be combina-
ton among them to reform altogether
the practice of responding to encores.un-
til it can be brought within reasonable
limits

THE FIRST ASSASSIN.
From the New York World,

Some months after this cypher de-
spatch was received from M. Walewski,
ambassador at London, saying that a
certain Kelch, who had escaped from
Lambersia, and paid by Mazzini, was
coming to Paris to assassinate the En-.
peror. Griscelli was fixed upon as the
one to intercept him. Taken to the op-
era, he was there presented to Napoleon,
who ordered him to be given ], 900 francs
and to have placed at his disposition
whatever he might need. Receiving the
description of Kelch, which mentioned
him as a dangerous man of herculean
strength, Griscelli at once departed in
search of the would-be assassin. He
speedily succeeded in DISCOVERING where
Kelch lived, and for fifteen days and
nights was constantly with him. Il ate
at the same table, very often took coffee
in the same room; or horseback, in a
carriage, or on foot, we never ceased to
see each other, yet SO blinded was he by
the idea of the assassination that he
never perceived he was watched. All
the letters he received from London and
those which he wrote we unsealed, read,
and then sent to their address," Affairs
were in that condition when one morn
ing Kelch wrote to Mazzini that the
Emperor would be dead within two days.
The Emperor went out for his ride as
usual, accompanied by M. Fiuery. As
they arrived at the Place de la Con-
corde, Kelch, who was waiting there,
started towards Us, his horse at hard
gallop.. Griscelli had to tell the jockeys
of the train to press close around the
Emperor and allow no one in front of
him. Arriving at the Bois de Bou-
logne there commenced mad steeple-
chase. Walls, streams, alleys and lakes
we're turned and passed in triple gal
lop. Those who saw us go by said the
head of the State was either crazy or
drunk. He was neither one nor the
other; bat he was afraid of his life."-
Running thus for three hours, Kelch
was out distaneed; his horse-full blood

and they therefore developed with re-
markable unanimity habit of commit
ting suicide by poison.
DE MoRNY.s VANCOUVER.
As relief to the stories may be re-
counted clever trick played by M. de
Morny. When that distinguished gen.
tleman was embassdor to Russia there
appeared in several northern journals a
paragraph announcing that he was about
to marry court lady of the aristocracy.
No sooner was this published than the
Countess de Lehon, with whom the
duke had sus aimed very intimate rela-
tions, wrote to him stating that he must
Immediately contradict the rumor, or
she would dishonor him by making pub
lie some documents concerning the coup
d. etat which he had left in her hands.
This letter was sent to the Tuileries mark
ed, " Act quickly to avoid great scan
dal. De Morny." Pietri was summoned,
!
but turned it over to Griscelli. While
the latter was talking the affair over
with the Emperor, news came that the
all-important papers had gone to London
to the Due d. Orleans. Griscelli did not
believe this, and so offering to make his
words good, for the reason that the
Countess would not part with the pa
pers until the Due had answered her let
tiers, he was intrusted with all the power
he wished, and departed to seek them
Calling upon the Countess, with whom
hs was already acquainted, he asked to
see her son. As they were talking the
yoang Count entered. Taking him by
the arm, Griseelli led him down stairs,
into the street, and then had the house
surrounded, so that no one could enter
or leave. Naturally, the youth demand
ed the cause of this treatment. Girls
celli replied: If | were not your friend
/ should not act as am now doing" at
length saying, Only to-day your moth
er has been denounced to the authorities
as having sold some valuable papers to
the Orleanists."
:" It's false" cried the Count. "The
papers of M. de Morny are in mothers
desk, locked in a box. | had the box
in my hands to-day"
So talking, Griscelli led him to the
study of the Emperor, who received him
kindly, when he was informed where the
papers were. And the Count wrote to
his mother "Dear mamma | beg you
to hand to our friend Griscelli the little
box of papers so that he can bring them
TO me in the study of the Emperor,
where write, and where, dear mother,
| have been received with so much good
mes that am penetrated by it,"
Griscelli ran to the Countess house.
No sooner did she see him than she cried,
"What have you done with my son {?
You have assassinated him. l am guard
ed by the police before my execution
My son Tell mel what have you done
with him p
His sole response was to hand her the
the letter. When read, Never neverr'
she exclaimed so loudly that Pietri rush
ed in to see what was happening. At
sight of him she vociferated. al yield to
force. ] will protest before Europe
against the government of the sword
and spies."

ANECDOTES OF THE LAST EMPEROR OF
FRANCE.

ANECDOTES OF THE LAST EMPEROR OF
FRANCE.
From the New York World,
1t is well known that during the whole
time he was Emperor, Napoleon lived in
constant dread of assassination. One OF
his first acts after the coup d etat was to
appoint as his chief of police Corsican
named Pietri, who by his skill and ener-
gy gained high reputation as secret
agent Pietri's principal assistant was
also a Corsican, a soldier called Grsicelli,
who had left the army in consequence Of
some disagreement with the authorities.
He recently published his memories,
which contain quantity of interesting
anecdotes, and incidentally gives many
entertaining details concerning the pri-
vate life of the ex-Emperor. From these
it would seem that Napoleon was almost
continually in condition of funk, "
for the police were kept constantly on
the alert hunting some unlucky conspi-
rator. Griscelli bluntly avows at the
commencement of his book that the Sc
cret police is most tyranical invention,
and that for the most part its members
do nothing but spy upon each other or
provoke plots which they may gain glo-
ry by betraying. Nevertheless" he
adds, there are occasions when a secret
agent is indispensable and then mar
rates the first attempt upon the new self
created Emperor's life.
THE FIRST INTERNAL MACHINE.
A few days after his admission to the
police, the chief of police showed him a
note to the effect that an internal ma
chine was making at certain house in
the Faubourg St. Honore. Going thith-
er, Griscelli saw above the door a sign !:
" To let-an apartment of ten rooms /;
1000 francs" Returning home he dress.
ed himself handsomely, and then hiring
carriage with powdered coachman
and footmaD, went again to the house,
and had himself announced as the Mar
quis of Chalet. Porter, footman and
servants ran at the sound of such a dis
tinguished name. Dismissing all others,
he asked the porter to show him through
the rooms That concluded, Griscelli
gave the man 100 francs of engagement
money, and then said fanilliarly:
"Now, who owns this house? Who
lodges above me l warn you that, al
though | have taken the rooms, l shall
uot occupy them if one of Bodinguet's,
blood-drinkers lives there, for l do not
wish to meet upon the staircase butch
er of the Elysee-Bourbon.'
After some conversation the agent
frankly proclaimed himself an adherent
of Henri ", and learned in return that
the house belonged to minister of the
late Charles X. The porter, won over,
and giving confidence for confidence, led
him into little room looking out upon
the street, in which was stand where
upon was arranged five guns fastened
together. Giving some money to drink
the health of Henri ", the distinguish
ed agent departed with all the informa-
tion he wanted.
