An Interegting Reminiscenee.

The gossip about the Eapoleons set
adrift by the tragic occurrence in south
Africa brings up letter from Washing
ton Irving to his niece. He was in
Europe in 1853, and the emperor had
just been married: Louis Napoleon
and Eugene Montiio. emperor and ems

have had q guest at my cottage on the
Hudson the other whom, when q child,
l have had on my knees at Grenada. It
seems to cap the climax of the strange
dramas of which Paris has been the
thester during my lifetime. have re-
peatedly thought that each coup de
theatre would be the last that would occur
in my time, but each has been succeeded
by another equally striking. The last
saw of Eugene Montijo she was one Of
the reigning bellies of Msdrid Am to
live to see the catastrophe of her career,
and the end of this suddenly coniuIed-
up empire, which seems to be OF such
stuff as dreams are made of? I consider

into cases and courts; the parsons who
can not rise above schools and districts;
the author who quotes his own words
the physician who perpetuslly airs his
special paEsion-be it Bach. Beethoven,
Brahm or Bizet nor the painter who
is in continual state of heart burning
at somebody slse's success. Not one OF
these men satisfies her requirements.
OF course we refer to the time in her life
before fate has, it may be, caused her to
love a man the very opposite of what
her reason teaches her to admire. Her
man will be neither an Adonis nor
CalibGn. He will have SEINE slight
power of sympathizing with her, as
we'll as of expecting her to sympathize
with her. He will be good-tempered
and obliging, and the less selfish the
better. Being sensible girl, she will
not look for the impossibility of sn en-
tirely unselfsh man. He viii be edu>
Gated and intelligent, able to talk to
| clevefer people than himself without
appearing a fool, but he viii not, as 8
rule, be 8 distinctly learned parsonage.
He will be in the habit o. paying to all
women pretty little helpful attentions,
which, because they are done only out OF
| kindness OF heart, will not detract from
his msnliness.
And here, we believe, we have made
our best guess at the equality dearest to
cur girls heart. ManliDess is her re
quirement by which we mean that she
likes a man to be SO thoroughly brave
that he cannot be brutal; SO true Rnd
strong that she may trust 10 him, in
stead of having to be the guide, consider,
comforter and friend of his uncertain
steps. That he should be physically
manly is of less importance to her than
he should have q manly mind, broad
and fair, and free from littleness. AT
the same time we believe she would pre-
fer that he should ride and shoot, and
be able to, enjoy himself honestly in the
country, always provided he will net
bore her with continued talk of game
and bags. To uncommon natures other
Things are necessary, but with them We
have ne concern at present. We wish
only to convey to our readers our dis
tinct impression that q bright, intelli
gent, pure minded girl is by no mean
so anxious to know what are the Types
OF "girls men like" as to find Vpe o
man she likes herself And, as a rule
We believe she knows true metal Whe'

Science and Cox.


A stout wooden armchair was brought
8 clean white tablecloth was spres" on
the floor and Cox was asked to take q
seat. DR.. Fowler stood behind him,
while DR.. Austin opened a chronological
work, vito g chart. Cox did not move
q muscle, but permitted the examination
OF his head TO proceed as if he were
mere machine. The reporter who stood
by DIR. Austin, marked down: Combat
iveness, very large; destTuctiveness,
large; secretiveness, very large; eau
ton, very large; frmness, very large !;
parental love, very large; organic quail
tiles, full and large; motive temPers-
ment, very large; great powers OF ply
| sicsl endurance continuity, large; Con-
scientiOusness, very large. The bad
qualities are Offset by a remarkable
development of parental love. His head
strongly exhibits the gentler and kind
! lier feelings. He has more than the
ordinary range of intelligence, is Won-
derfully gifted with the reasoning facul-
ties, has good perception, large mechan
| ical ingenuity and strong religious,
musical and pathetic organs. His organ
of language are great. His powers Of
friendship and attachment are small.
He won not be disposed to miscel
IaneOus intercourse and would be inclined
to solitary life. 1t is head that, under
good discipline aud moral education, has
the capacity for a large degree of success.
Such were the brief notes taken at the
dictation of DR.. Fowler, who ran iis
hands gently over Cox's head meanwhile.
The phrenOlogist having retired, DR..
Austin gave signal to Mr., King, who,
with an assistant, was mixing plaster OF
Paris in a large tin pail. Mr.. King
stepped up at once, and, sitter taking q
long, steady view of the subject, threw
over his shoulder q long white water
proof coat. The operator then quickly
covered the back of Cox's head with 8
mixture that looked like sOapsuds, and
afterward, by mesns of a mason's tr0wel,
with a thick aver of the p ssCer Paris.
Then Mr. King took soft brush and
| painted Cox's face all over with the
mixture he had prepared. The eyes
were tightly closed. Soue short wooden
blocks were next put against the cast at
the back of the head, and C0x's face was
speedily covered with plaster Paris also
The plaster quickly dried, and then NJ,
KING, with a wooden m3llet, gently
tapped the blocks, and the two parts Of
the cast readily fell apart and were
secured.

8 hal a century ago left directions that
the day of his burial should be usheTed
in with great public breakfast in the
town where he might die that the
coffin, slung upon towels knOtted to-
getheT, and bumped" three times upon
a particular heap of stones; that the
% Lamentation eff Sinner should then
be sung; and that every man, woman
and child who entered the church-ysrd
with or after the procession should re-
ceive a dole of sixpence. Never, we
fairly believe, was that particular

succession of men who would order THEN
