last century, contains the following de-
scription OF Bonaparte's manners:
Generally the speeches of Bonaparte
were lucid and sparkling; they We're con-

but wanting in feeling. The impression
excited by this young man was painful
admiration; the mind was dazzled by the
superiority of his talents, but the heart
felt oppressed.
There was not to be found in him any
trace of that generous ma.naniIni.y that
forestalls confidence, and forms the most
beautiful feature in the character of he
rOes.
Among the personages met in the differ
ent scenes just described, Bonaparte alone
seemed to possess the habits and easy air
given by frequcnting society. His smooth
au} u Lair was dressed in a queue; it
was not powdered, and hung very low
over his forehead and the side OF his face
His eyes were red with fatigue.
He had the smooth, sallow coloring that
state to belong to melan-
chOly temperaments, and is. in their opin-
ion. an index of the greatest powers OF
mind. Lastly, as said before, he was quite
destitute OF gentleness CT grace. His ac-
tions and words always bore the impress
OF harsh arrogance, making his superb
ority always felt, but by making others i'll
at ease.
As he waskoing away, Marquis Henry

feeling he had experienced. General"

An Intelligent Mare.

A liveryman on West Madison street,
Chicago, says the Times, owns a mare
which hates policeman as the devil hates
holy " ter. The animal is naturally vic
iOus, but her particular dislike to the
knights of the mace originated in this
wise: While being driven along State
street, some two years ago, the mare per-
ceiving that the lines were little slack,
made sudden dash through the crowd
into Madison street. knocking pedestrians
right and left. She encountered an Obsta-
Gle in the shape OF big policeman, who
applied his club to her ''snoot'' in vigOr-
Gus manner. causing her to sit down on
her tail. The intelligent beast seemed to
notice that the chap who dubbed her wore
blue clothes and brass buttons. and ever
since then the SIGHT of one of those fel-
lows throws her into rage, and she drops
her head and goes for him. She has be-
come SO rabid OF late that whenever she is
taken out of the stable she imagines it is
for the purpose of turning her loose after
the police force, and as she darts away she
keeps her eyes peeled for the ''peelers." :"
Her owner says she is getting SO bad
that he is afraid to hire her out to stran-

American Life In Paris,

What is called the American colony il,
Paris consists of about 1000 families. q
lalg gre proportion of them from the South
great many OF them might be regarded
as permanent residents. A eoodly num-
Der of them are people of limited means,
who finl that they can live so much cheap
er here than in an American city that they
have concluded to stay. Cue CT these re-
marked to me to-day: 81 can live better
in Paris on $4,000 per annum than could
in New York on Coco" He then proceed
ed to detail the difference. In New York
he would be regarded as nobody unless he
owned or rented a brown stone house at
from $1,000 to 5000 per annrm. Here he
could obtain suite OF elegant apartments.
ina fashionable neighborhood, at from
$500 to $1,000 per annu:n, and make as
good an appearance as any one else in his
sphere. Ia New York lie would have to
pay $40 per week for ccachman. whilst
here he could engage landau. with fine
pair OF horses, and liveried footman
thrown in, to be always at the reasonable
call of his family, for Sl2 to SIS per week.
Then he said he could c!othe himself and
family at one-llalf the expense and much
better than he could in New York: that
servant hire was not halt the cost. and the
service better; that there were ALWAYS
amusements here at moderate cost, and
cab at call to take him and family home at
all hours of the night for two francs;
whilst in New \ ork such a luxury would
cost So. Then there was little or none OF
the troubles of housekeeping III Paris. as
a family can be fed cheaper than it can
feed itself, if satisfied with French living.
But, he remarked, an American can never
feel contented or comfortable in Paris un-
til he goes to housekeeping and orders is
own food, and prescribes the mode of cook
ing it. A Frenchman loves the table d'hote,
but it is an abomination to the American.
AS soon as they get under their own roofs
they all fall back to the American mode of
living. and luxuriate in sriddle cakes. muf-
fins, hot rolls and buck wheat cakes. all of
which Partisan would regard rs poison.

The quality and color Of the hair was a
subject OF speculative theory among the
ancients. Lank. smooth hair was consid-
cred indicative of cowardice. while irizzly
hair was thought to indicate coarseness
and clumsiness. Curling locks disposed
in ringlets were the most esteemed; such.
it is stated, was the hair of Achilles, Ajax.
lebanon and Timon, of Athens. Auburn
or light brown hair, was held to denote in
telligence, industry. a peaceful disposition.
as well as susceptibility to love. Castor
and Pollux had browQ hair, so had also
Menelaus. The Romans did not look f,v-
'orably on black hair, but they detested red
hair. Judas Iscariot is always represented
with red hair, probably as an object of
aversion. The donkey tribe shared this
dislike, as shown by the proverb, "Wick-
ed as a red ass" 1t is said the Copts had
such dislike of asses of that color that,
in order to crafty their disgust. they every
year sacrificed one of these creatures by
hurling it from high wall.
