THE TWELVE PURSES.

One night the Emperor Joseph H., OF
Germany, determined on visiting his
guards, to ascertain their fidelity, and
what dependence might he placed on
their vigilance. Finding them all
asleep, or at least in appearance, he re-
turned to his chamber for some money
which he had reserved for a different
purpose, contained in as many purses
as there were soldiers on duy-twelve
in number. These he visited once more,
and placed under the arm of each one
of these purses, In every one of which
were 100 pieces of gold.
One of the soldiers who was not
asleep, although he feigued to be so, took
particular notice of the Emperor, and,
at his departure, examined the purse
which had been put under his arm, and,
finding that It contained 100 pieces of
gold, supposed each of his companions
had as much, of which he might take
possession before they aw0ke. This he
Immediately put into practice by gently
easing them of their valuable burdens.
The Emperor, who had M doubt that
all the soldiers were asleep when he
visited them, and that they must be
overjoye3 on awakening at discovering
their good fortune, caused them to be
called together early in the morning,
and asked of them successivey what
they had dreamed the preceding night,
and whether the success was answerable
to the vision, imagining that each would
say that he had found purse under his
arm with 100 pieces of gold, But not
a word Of the matter did he hear from
the first eleven that he examined until
he came to the twelfth, the watchful
sentinel of the preceding night, who,
making profound bow to the King,
said:
''Sir, fancied at night that person
who very much resembled your Majes.
ty, visited US one after another, and
finding us all asleep, returned to his
chamber, but soon came back with a
dozen purses, which he attached sever
ally to the arm of each of us, and then
withdrew. Afterward, sire, 1t was
evident, unless my dream deceived me,
that when that generous and venerable
person had retired, | began TO examine
the contents of the purse under my own
arm, and, finding in 1t ahundred pieces
OF gold, supposed each of my compan.
ions had so many, when l was seized
with sudden Zeal to put them all to.
gether, saying to myself that, form any
cOgent reasons which then occurred to
me, 1t would be well to do so; and so I
did, which pleased me exceedingly on
awaking. This, sire, Is the whole of
my dream. l hope your Majesty ap-
proves of my devotion, which, assure

we talk of pretty women as II they
of all others we're the elect; as If wo-
mans sole claim to admiration rested
on the fine eyes and luXuriant hair.
Is she pretty?" is the first question
asked concerning new acquaintance,
as though that embraced the whole sub
ject. If man likes a woman, in the
lexicon of masculinity, it signifies wo-
man interesting from whatever cause.
Who has not known women to be called
pretty who could hardly boast of hand =.
some features? Who has not been &C.
quainted with those enjoying wide
reputation for prettiness who had any
other than Physical charms2 She who
has distinctly graceful manner, OF an
elegant air, or fine tact, or talent
for conversation, or quick sympathies,
or cordial ways, or the art of listening
well, albeit plain in the face and of or.
dinary6gure, is frequently styled pretty,
and the adjective is repeated until it is
fasteued upon, and is constantly asso-
ciated with her. Merely pretty women
do not rule society-never did and nev.
er will. When beauty is allied to
pleasant manners or accomplishment,
tact, quick wit, then indeed it is all
powerful; otherwise, really plain wo.
man who has conspicuous graces oI
mind and manner will prove more thar
match for her beautiful, insipld sis

All persons, but younp men espe

All persons, but young men espec-
tally, should remember that politeness,
or civility, or whichever you
please to call it's the oil which pre-
serves the machinery of society from
destruction. We must bend to one an-
other; we must step aside, now and
then, and allow others to pass; we must
learn to speak pleasantly when irritat-
ed, and to do many things, which may
be hard to do, in order TO avoid collis-
ion. In world OF selfish interest and
selfish pursuits, where every man is in.
tent on his own special good, we must
adapt ourselves to all the circumstances
of our lives, and nothing will facilitate
this so much as civility. Young men
generally would he astonished to find
how much their personal happiness
popularity, prosperity, and usefulness
depeLd on their manners.

THE invention of bells is attributed
to Poloniusr Bishop of NOla, Campania,
about the year 400. They were first
introduced into the churches as a de.
fense against thunder and lightning.
They were first put up in CrOyland Alb.
hey, Lincolnshire, England, in 945. In
the eleventh century, and later, it was
the custom to baptize them in the
churches they were usedin The eurfew
bell was established in 1858. 1t was
Tung at 8 in the evening, when people
were obliged to put out their fires and
candles. The custom was abolished in
100, Bellmenw were appointed in Lon
don in 1856 TO ring the bells at night,
and cry out, Take care OF your fire
and candle; be charitable to the poor,
and pray for the dead"
