Then /, ,"replied the aid dc camp, with
his usual frankness, should like TO be as
sured of dying and being buried there"
"Wbo knows7" said Napoleon " that
may happen and myself-whe knows"
he dad not finish the sentence but fell into
profound reverie, v Lich lasted during the
remainder of the drive.
On the 18th of Dece mher, Is4O, a funeral
car, covered with crowns of Laurel, preced-
ed by the banner of France, and followed by
the surviving relics of her forty armies,
passed slowly beneath the Triumphal Arch
de l'Etoile. The sarcophagus it bore con-
tained the moral epoils of him, Who in the
space of fifteen years, bad well-nigh con-
qnered the world. The de ad Napoleon was
thus tardily borne to his place beneath
that dome raised for the shelter of heroes.
Late in the evening, when the crowd had
slowly dispersed, when the murmur of it's
thousand voices was hushed, when the soli
tude was complete, and the silence un-
broken, an invalid, centegenarian, almost
blind, and walking on two wooden legs,
entered the chapel where reposed the body
of Napoleon. Supported by two of his
comrades, he reached with difficulty the
foot of the imperial catafalque. Taking
off his wooden legs in order to kneel down,
he bent his venerable head on the steps
and presently mingled with sobs, he uttered
in broken accents the wor e, " Emperor
father!'
At length his companions succeeded in
drawing him away and as he passed out,
the superior officers of the Hotel respect
fully saluted the old man. He who thus |
came to render bis last homage to his mas
ter was Cyprien, the grandson of father |
Metropolitan. |

TN snow along the track OF the Union
Pacific railroad, about the middle Of
March, was from four 10 twelve feet deep
and in some Of the deep gulches, was one
hundred feet deep. The snow yuages
on the Nevadss show a fall OF three hun
dred aud eighty nine inches OF snow
during the winter. The track of the rail-
road was opened by immense snow plows,
operated by locomotives aud hundreds Of
Chinese. On some portions OF the road
the track was blockadcd for four days,
and in SOME OF the villages along the
line only the combs OF the roofs OF the
houses could be seen above the snow.
