Sorrows of the Leverrier Family.
New Orleans Picayune Paris Letter.


Nine. Leverrier soon followed her IL
lustrious husband to the grave. 1t has
not been three months since his funeral,
and already her coffin touches his! May
be the disagreeable man, hated by the
world generally, was a winning compan-
ion at home. She had, however, great
sorrows. Her eldest son committed
suicide few months ago under distress
ing circumstances. He had gotten
deeply into debt. 1t has been said that
one of his debts was contracted at the
gaming table, was for a considerable
amount, and of course was to be paid in
twenty-four hours. He appealed to his
father for money. His father neither
could nor would give it. Leverrier, who
found the day all too short, could not
understand how anybody should spend
time at the card table-wa: most angry
with his son for wasting money and that
other heritage still more precious, time.
Napoleon Ill, who never refused money
to his friends, was dead. So the young
man had nothing to dc but to commit
suicide. He lived near me. The wife of
the janitor of the house ia which he
committed suicide told my janitor that.
she had to 60 fifty times to nj. Leverrier
before she could wiring from him forty
cents she had spent for candles to light
the room in which she had set up with
the corpse, and he absolutely refused to
give her a single cent for her trouble.

Life IS Not All Thorns.

"Minnie Myrtle" writes us a charm
ing little poem beginning, "Life is not
all Thorns. Well, dog gone it, did we
say it was? Don't come bowling at us
about a statement we never made; go to
the man who said life is all thorns, and
don't go fooling around him with poetry,
either. Just slip brick in the toe of a
long-legged stocking and hide it behind
you, and go up to him and tell him he's
primordial liar, and dassent take it up.
Then, if he makes motion, swing the
stocking and stave in the top of his head.
We're with you in this thorn business,
and we believeyou are right.-Ha'okeye.
