NAPOLEON.
Death OF the Ex Emperor.

Louis Napoleon died at Chissel-
hurst, England, of disease of the
bladder, at 1915, A. Ne, on Tues
day last.
The following from that clear
headed Journal, the Richmond
WIG, is about as good and terse a
sketch of him as we shall hope to
find, and we give it insertion here ::
The Cable brings the intelligence of
the death of LOUIS NAPoLEON-late
Emperor of the French-and at his
ieath, a dethroned and eXiled mon
arch. His career has been among the
most chequered in the annals of histo-
Y. He was reared with aspirations
or the throne of his illustrious uncle
to whom, scandal said, he was no
nlood-relation. He made two very alb
4urd attempts to upset the throne of
Louis PHILLIPPE-one at Boulogne
md the other at Starsburg. Both fail
eG, and the result of the last was his
capture and imprisonment at Ham,
whence he made an almost miraculous
.Scape. When the Citizen King, in
SIS, was seized with a sudden panic,
md fled from Paris, and 4 Republic
vas inaugurated, LOUIS NAPOLEON
vas q needy adventuer, living by his
Wits and upon his expectations, in
london. 1t has been said, that he
.Tas 4 member of the London police -
Whether this be true or not,-he was
II very low ebb, and was very little
liflerent from what the French under
.Snd ty the phrase: chcud,ier din

ssonrces and living by his ingenuity.

were deluge0 with blood.
lie governed France for nearly
yenty years with firm and stern
and, and was loOk ed upon as the
rbiter of European destinies. His
ADMINISTRATION, though personal aud
espotic, contributed immensely to the
Material prosperity of France. 1t is
s.ieved, that in no twenty years OF
a existaRce, did France make such |
royrcss ia wealth; and the love OF

Senator PridemOre.

The Richmond WIG of Friday
last says;
Mr. Pridemore, always impresses us with
his rugged vigor, his originality and his
wonderful yolubility.
The WIG does NO MORE than
Justice to Gen. Pridemore, who is
really a young gentleman Of very
unusual force and is one of the
most efficient members Of the Vir-
ginia Senate. In combination with
his intellectual vigor there is a de-
gree of urbanity and genial humor
which makes him one of the most
companionable gentlemen now at
Richmond, and we wish that Lee
county may keep him in her SER
vice,
