APT PUPILS.

A colored graduate of Hampton who
recently had oversight of Indian bows
under Gen Armstrong, gives the follow.
ing account "When they first began
to make beds, the sheets were either
tucked up under the pillow or laid on
the outside. One boy was found to
have seven sheets, who did not know
the proper use for two. The ianitor
helped me carry q bedstead into the
s1tting-room, the boys We're called in
and seated in a semi-circle, and / began
the process of bed-making, the boys
grunting and laughing as it proceeded.
When the clothes were neatly tucked in
and the pillow shaken and put in its
place, said, Now boys, I will show
you how to get into bed, which / did.
Then, through the interpreter, asked
who was willing to try it. He hardly
put the question when n boy who had
objected to having his hair cut when he
first came, stepped forward He began
where did, and followed every move
ment, so closely had he observed, No
sooner did he finish than there was
stunning applause. He was then asked
TO show us how to 90 to bed, and when
his head touched the pillow and he drew
the clothingup over him, up went another
shout"

In some Memoirs found in Il very

Gated the proper method to all her
coterie of friends, and from thence it
circled to the outer world. Even in the
early days of the republic, according to
this authority, women dressed in rich
fabrics, and expensive accessories to the
toilet were considered necessary. When
Thomas Jefferson was ministerto France,
he took enough interest in his women
folks to send home to them from Paris
white satin slippers, long gloves, lace
slips and other pretty things. In one
of his letters he gives parental caution
against extravaganza, but urges his
daughters to always keep themselves
dressed as ladies'

WnRaTTNa A MONARCH.

Conspicuous among the few men Of his
time who ever got the better Of Freder-
lex the Great in testing encounter, was
an abbot Of the Catholic monastery Of
Camenz, who succeeded in that high
office the worthy Abbot Tobias, an old
teyorite and friend Of the Protestant hero
whom, upon q memorable occasion, he
had saved from capture by party of
foraging Croat horsemen. The king
disliked the new abbot as heartily as he
had liked the old one but, having been
Hospitality entertained by him during
the last visit he ever paid to Camenz, he

after a moments reflection, replied, "Tll

mind that Frederick had some short
time previously set up an establishment
for improving the breed Of asses in the
very town mentioned by him and, fore
seeing what sort Of bass singer the kings
peculiar humor would prompt him to
forward to Camenz, wherewith to recruit
its choir, he promptly rejoined, Most
dread sovereign, in token of our graft

accordance with the custom OF our order,
we shall bestow upon our new second
bass the name Of his exalted donor. He
will be known in our choir as Fridelicus

to return this dexterous home-thTust,
