Frauds of History.

At a meeting of the Yale alumni in
New York, Professor Wheeler read a
paper, in which he exposed number OF
popular historical tales Sappho never
killed herself by jumping from a rock,
but died a natural death Leonidas
fought at Thermopyle, not with only
800 at his back, but with 1000. The
philosopher Diogenes never lived in a
tub The story Of the virtues of the
Roman matron Lucretia must be reject
ed, while the story of the Horatii and
Curatii is worse than doubtful. The
sons of Brutus we're not the victims OF
their fathers firmness, but of his brutal
ity. 1t was utterly impossible for Han
nibal to haze followed up his victory at
Cannse, and the story OF his. using vim
egar to cleave the rocks OF the Alps is
absurd. So, too, the story of Cleopatra
ldissolving pearl in 8 goblet Of vinegar
and drinking up a fortune at one draught
Archimedes never said: aGive me aIlev-
Ter long enough and will move the
world !" nor did he cry cut s-s Eufekal +
at any known period of his life or dis
coveries. Alexandria was never visited
by Omar, nor was the Ale1andrian Ii
brary burnt No more did Calico say
"And yet it moves for all that" since il
is proved from authentic documents that
he did not dare to. That Columbus
broke the end of an egg and thus con.
futed his Knockers is fabulous; as is also
the story that be encouraged the follow.
ers with brave words when the shores o
San Salvador were still out of sight
Richard III, of England, did not Kill
his brother Clarence, and the story about
butt of Malmsey arose from the fac'
that the body of Clarence, who died 9
natural death, was transported from Ca
lais to England in wine butt. Charles
II. never had the body of Cromwell ia
ken from Westminster abbey and hang
ed at Tyburn, for the daughter of Crom
well, apprehensive Of some such ill-treat
ment, had her fathers corpse secretly
removed from the abbey and buried in 9
quiet churchyard Millions daughters
could not have ,consoled their father in
his blindness by reading passages from
the old authors, for the best of reasons
they did not know how to read.

In short time Napoleon returned t
Paris; but he was much altered Grie
and despair had preyei upon his heart
for he had heard of his misfortunes
The day after his arrival small ebon,
box was presented to him, which had
been brought by servant in livery. HI
opened it His horror and his anguish
might more easily be imagined than de
scribed The casket contained bloody
hand-the hand of woman-MATILDA's
HAND! On paper, stained with blood
he read these words: $50 does the
Countess de- keep her word" Roar
ing with rage and indignation, he took
his pistols and faw to the Counts house
The Count aud Matilda disappeared
during the night, few hours after the
bloody deed, and no one knew whence
they had gone
OD the night Napoleon had recognized
his mothers ring. on the doctors chain
be had gone to that ball becausea secret
presentment had urged him thiiher,
The next day DR. Lisfranc aud his an
tagonist met in the wood of Vincennes
The doctor received severe wound be.
low the armpit. He lay long in danger,
but hopes we're entertained for recovery
Before leaving his adversary, the doctor
related to him the incidents of that cruel
night on which be had heen compelled
to commit crime for the. sake of hu.
manity.
"However," added he, "Matilda could
not have suffered much, sublime exaI
tation sustained her courage. and / au
sure she was happy in her suffering, in
the thought that her hand, at least, would
be returned to you. Aud when it was
over beard gentle voice murmuriug

from my sight: Tell him, / beseecl
you, that my heart will go toward him

Too Heavy for Him.

This comes from Waterford, Loudon
county, virginiai
A colored meeting was lately held in
this place, at which the attendance was
large and the converts numerous. The
stove-pipe happening to fall, the minis.
ter asked one of the bredderin to put ID
in position again. Brother johnson es-
sayed to do 1t, but being rather slow,
the old minister said:
"Pick it up, brudder, pick It up, de
Lord won't let burn you" ~
Brother johnson, with faith in the as.
surance, seized the hot pipe,and Of course
had his hands blistere6. He dropped IL
with the inappropriate remark, "Ds deb.
b1 he .Don'tP' '
1t was just little heavy for him.

Exemption from careis not happiness
