Cuirassiers.
In the battle Of Froeschwiller, August
6, 1870, the Eighth Cuirassiers, a gallant
French regiment, was severely handled,
and one of the officers, seeing that all
was lost, tore the flag from its staff and
hid it in his breast. Subsequently he
was MORALLY wounded and confided his
treasure to a peasant, whom he request
ed to bear it to the colonel, but the
thrifty peasant, after keeping the flag
till it was regarded as hopelessly lost,
tore off the embroidery, which he sold
in Strasburg, threw away or destroyed
the red portion Of the color, and turned
the blue into a cravat. Fortunately a
gentleman of the vicinity heard of his
vandalism and saved two-thirds Of the
ensign, which,, having hunted up the
embroidery and ornaments, he returned
to the regiment. 1t bears in gold letters
on one side the inscription, "N-The
Emperor, NAPOLEON Ill, to the Eighth
Regiment of Cnirassers-N," and on
the other, Observation-Disclosures
gram the Moskwa-Hanan."

INGENIOUS THIEVES.

Robbed.

How Ladies Out shopping in London Are
Robbed.
Regent street, the great shopping
ground of fashionable London, is
haunted now by a new variety of inge-
NOUS and saudacious thieves. Good
looking, well-got-up footmen,. some
times In one livery and sometimes in
another, watch carriages as they stand
about near some favorite shop, and
while the coacnman has gone a lutte
way for glass, and the footman is gcs-
siping with his fellows round the shop
door, walk boldly up, open the carriage
door, and make off with any available
article. II caught at the door of the
carriage, there is the ready excuse of
having been sent to Lady So-and-So's
carriage for some parcel. and ready
apology for the mistake. The makeup
of these thieves is perfect, and as varied
as that Of a detective.
