NAPoLE0N's PROPHECIES.


The rapid march of events during the
past year in Eastern Europe recalls to
mind the prophecy of Napoleon that in
fifty years Europe would be Cossack or
Republican, and supplies some curious YER
i6cation. The conversation which he held
with the Englishman OMeara, as he paced
back and forth in his restricted quarters at
St. Helena, have been preserved by the lat
ter and recorded in book form. We find
some extracts from this work in the Chi.
cago Tribune, and cite few of them, as
showing how closely the great Emperor
looked into futurity. Upon one occasion
he said to OMeara:
In the course Of . few years Russia will
have Constantinople, the greatest part OF
Turkey, and all Greece. This hold TO be Q
certain e. IL It had already taken place.

sippi. A correspondent of the Inter- Ocean
writing from Scooba, in that State, sends an
account of the latest excitement in Kemper
county. A.man named Henry Love, of Lex.
ington, Ky, was stopped while driving along
the road BY two men, who, with revolver
in hand, demanded his money. He was tax
en- at disadvantage and gave up his mou-
ey,about 81 200. Love then gave the alarm,
and there was soon large crowd in pursuit.
One man was shot, when both surrendered,
and the money was recovered. The two
robbers, Ben Anderson and Horace Davis,
had preliminary examination at Scooba
and we're committed to Jail. Then arose a
new difficulty. The men who had assisted
in making the arrest demanded $500 re-
ward, and declared they would have the
money or blood. The night after the men
were put in Jail, the Kemperites got tipsy,
and about fifty shots we're fired in the vicin-
ity of Scocba, and quite q number al the
Jail and the jailor. Mr.. Love failed to Sc
cure possession of his money, the caption.
insisting that he must prove property, and
showing much ill-will toward him because
he declined to pay $500 for the capture of
the robbers.
