and Lebrun, elderly, BOW.

Csmbeoeres and Lebrun elderly, pow
dered, and well set up, wore this gorge
Gus coat with lace, rufiles. and a sword,
after the old fashion af full dress; but
B0naparte, who detested all such adern-
ments, got rid of them rs much as pos
sible. His hair was cut short, smoothed
down, apd generally i'll arranged. With
his erimson-and-gold coat he would wear
a black cravat, lace frill to his shirt,
but no sleeve rufles. Sometimes he wore
a white vest embroidered in silver, but
more frequently his uniform waistcoat,
his uniform sword, breeehes, silk stock
ings and boots. This extraordinary COS
tune and his small stature gave him the
oldest possible appearance, which, how
ever, no one ventured to ridicule. When
he became Emperor, he wore richly
laced coat, with short cloak and a
plumed hat; and this costume became
him very we'll. He also wore magni-
feent collar of the Order of the Legion of
Homer, in diamonds, on state occasions;
but on ordinary occasions he wore sill
Yer cross. On the eve OF his coronation,
the. Marshals he had newly created a few
months before came to pay him a visit,
all georgeously arrayed. The splender
of their costume, in contrast with his
simple uniform, made him smile. / was
standing at little distance from him,
and as he saw that I smiled also, he said
to me in low toue: 1T is not every one
has right to be plainly dressed" Pre-
sently the Marshals of the Army began
disputing among themselves about the
great question Of precedence. Their pre-
tensions were we'll founded, and each
enumerated his victories. Bonaparte,
while listening to them again looked at
me. II think" said I, 'you must have
your foot on France, and said,
'let all the vanities arise from the soil.
"That is true" he replied; "but it is un-
fortunate that the French are to be
ruled through their vanity"

The present Irish agitation reminds a
correspondent of the plan proposed by
Sir John Hawkshaw, years ago, to Lord
Palmerston for improving the condition
of Ireland. Sir John had visited Ireland
as chief of a commission to report if any
engineering project could be devised
which would be beneficial to ireland, and
would give profitable employment to
those in need. He reported against any
such scheme, but proposed to Lord Palm
erston that Parliament should guarantee
bounty of ESQ to every Irishman who
should marry an English or Scotch wo-
man, and the same amount to every Eng
lishman or Scotchman who should marry
an Irish woman. This proposition to
breed out the difficulties was seriously
entertained by Lord Palmerston's Cabi-
net but owing to his Lordship's death
soon afterward was never brought to ah'
determination.

Figaro has new version of the fable
of the dog who saw his visage reflected
in the brook which is more applicable to
modern life than the original. A dog,
carrying stolen beefsteak in his mouth,
comes to a limpid stream which reflects
surrounding 9jects as clearly as mir
ror. Perceiv.ng the reflected image Of
himself, he tanks Of seizing the piece Of
meat it holds, which he supposes to be
real, but concludes that it would be more
prudent first to devour his own piece.
Then he looks again in the stream. The
reflected dog had nothing in his teeth,
and expressed the satisfaction of con-
tented stomach. "Hap says the dog,
"that fellow had the same idea I had,D
and he runs away laughing.

Some Special Household Dangers.
Chambers Journal

A member of Parliament suffered from
painful eruption of the feet, traced at
last to some fashionable socks, which
were laid aside, with the result of end
ing his complaint. Some Californian
miners died from the effects of poisoning
produced by wearing boots lined with
bright sgreen flannel, the color in this
case being "Scheele's green" a we'll
known arsenical compound. A trades
man suffered from wearing bright ma
room flannel shirt.
Paper collars glazed and stifened with
sized whitehead, and containing arsenic,
have produced serious illness; and the
same results have followed the wearing
of hats lined with material containing
arsenic, and from gloves and coat-sleeves
similarly treated. Five or six persons in
a household were rendered suddenly i'll
by the matter exhaled from chintz win
dow-curtains and bed-drapery, and green
Venetian blinds have been known in hot
summer weather 10 give off particles of
arsenic with deleterious effect. The green
cloth lining of perambulator has af-
fected its young occupants, and the color
from the green gas-shades in a composing
room of printing office has produced
illness among the compositors.
In, the kitchen, arsenic has now and
then been met with, when used to impart
a green hue to dishes such as blanc
mango. In one case agentleman was
poisoned by partaking of dish innocent
ly enough colored by an arsenical prepa-
ration which had been mistaken by the
cook for an extract of spinach. And
even in the exercise of the perfumer's
art, it behooves us to be on our guard
against using preparations for the hair
colored green by some compound of this
substance. We thus find that arsenic is
most widely difused around us, from the
facility, and, above all, from the cheap
ness with which a beautiful pigment and
a favorite hue can be produced through
its aid.
Itis undoubtedly in the form of color
in wallpapers that arsenic most fire.
quently meets us. In paper-staining,
more than one compound Of arsenic is
used; and in the manufacture of the
beautiful aniline dyes, SO extensively
used, arsenic is also largely employed.
One notable feature of this substance,
and one also which gives it a special
power of affecting us to our detriment, is
the remarkable ease with which it be-
comes volatile. 1t may be readily DIFF
fused in the form of gas or minute solid
particles, and is thus brought into close
contact with us in our homes. Green is
very pretty color on walls, but we
would say, take care of it.

This company came highly spoken of as
one of the finest and most successful or
CARNATIONS on the road. Most of the people
were already known rs the most promin,
ent on the burlesque stage, and the public
naturally expected very much OF the troupe.
That every one was more than satisfied says
a great deal. They opened Monday night
with "Revels" and continued the same at
traction all the week. 1t sparkies with fun
and has drawn fine houses all along. 1t
will be presented at the matinee this after
noon and for the last time tonight.
The Surprise PARTY will give an extra
performance tomorrow Sunday night, on
which occasion the new burleque "Hor-
rors" will be presented. Miss Atherton,
Mr.. Edouin and all the members of the
troupe will appear. The New York Tele-
gram said of Horrors by this company:
''The piece, with its somewhat startling
title, is really one of the merriest musical
extravaganzas ever produced here. 1t is
full of fun and melody, and the company
that give it at the Union Square Theatre
have all the peculiar talent requisite to
make such piece an assured success"
