The Dom Pedro III. railroad is
largest and with perhaps one ex-
ception, the most important in
Brazil. The total length of the
main line Is 365 miles, and ex-
tensions are made almost every
year. The road was commenced
under the management OF an in
corporated company, interest of
7 per cent on the capital stock
beng guaranteed by the govern
ment. But in building the frs,
portion of the road it was neces-
sary to cross the mountains near
Rio, and by the time a hundred
miles were completed the capital
was entirely exhausted. In 1865
the government bought the road
of the stockholders, and it hai
since been butt and run az I
branch of the imperial service
On the invested capital Of rather
more than $40, 100000 the gov
ernment realizes an average year
ly income of five and one>hal
per centum yearly.

world after him. He was hero and wor.

an exile those who had been loudest In his
praises, denounced him. Below we have some
extracts from valuable book, known by the
name of "Gleanings for the Curious" in
which is the record of Napoleon's advance
upon Paris, after his escape from Elba. Were
it not so sad to think how changeable human
nature is, it would be aughable to read of the
rise and fall of the barometer of public feel

In 1915, the French newspapers announced
the departure of Bonaparte from Elba, his
progress through France and his entrance in-
to Paris, in tho following manner

And Mamma in her kerchief. and in my cap,

His checks were like roses, his nose like cherry
His dro little mouth was drawn up like bow.
And the beard of his chin white as the snow

ONE OF THE SIGHTS OF MUNIcH.-A cor
respondent of the New York Mail " writes !;
The Bavaria Is one of the sights of Munich,
and most interesting one, too. 1t is an
enormous bronze statue of q female figure
holding wreath, and is typical of the glory
of the kingdom Of Bavaria. It is erected on
a natural terrace which exists in the suburbs
of Munich, whereon, at the giddy height of
thirty or forty feet, number Of beer and
music gardens are placed, commanding the
only view of the city which can be had, save
from the little park on the other side of the
Isar. The Bavaria statue is so very large
that eight or nine people can crowd into it's
head, the inner side of the nose being favor
tie seat Looking out of the little peep holes,
the appraised arm, a few feet distant. proves
to be about the size of chimney of North
river steamboat. The figure has sort of
chignon at the back of the head, the Interior
of which contains copper plate inscribed
with brief history of the statue.
Behind the Bavaria is corridor or pavilion
in classical style, containing busts Of numer-
GUS German celebrities and of a great many
more who are celebritiesno longer. Painters

Its thatch grown thick with green and gold
And wind-sown grasses;
Unchanged II stands in sun and rain,
And seldom through its quiet main
footstep passes.
Yet here my little woman dwelt,
And saw the shroud of winter melt
From meads and meadows;
And heard the yellow-hammer sing
A tiny welcome to the spring
From budding sallows.
She saw the early morning sky
Blush with a tender wid-rose dye
Above the larches;
And watched the crimson sunset burn
Behind the summer plumes of fern
In woodland arches
My little woman, gone away

No more sun-seftingi

Securely resting at the goal,

My heart wakes up and cries in vain;
She gave me love, gave her pain
While she was living;

But those who stood beside her said
She died forgiying.

And yet love the empty nest

MISCELLANY.


THE OLD SQUARE ALMANAC.
December 16, 1854, is the birth. day of John
Selden, one of Englands greatest lawyers.
We have not had much to say about men of
the legal profession but we do not take place
with those people who declare it hard to find
an honest lawyer, and think the world would
be better off without any No doubt there
are plenty of tricksters, entered at the bar,
who meanly make gain of the miseres of
men. and are ready enough to deceive, that
they may carry their case. But the profession
has always had in its ranks some of the noblest
of Earth's sons, whether we have regard to
acuteness of intellect, breadth of thought,
purity aud integrity of morals, or fine sensi-
bilties and philanthropy. We might cite
the first statesmen and most acceptable office
holders in every civilized country, that have
in great number of instances had their train
bench, whose every opinion carries the weight
of written law, whose social and intellectual
influence has not been second to that of men
in any other profession Whales, as well as
little fishes, swim in this sea. And there have
been many pleaders and counsellors in the
civil courts the cornerstone of whose prac
tice has been honestly laid in that profound
mamix of the judicious Hooker: "Of Law,
there can be no less acknowledged than that
her seat is the bosom of God, her voice the
harmony of the world"
But just now we have to do with John Sell
den. He was patriot, who, though church.

and the respect alike of both parties, whether
be opposed or approved their measures.
Lord Clarendon, in his word portrait of
Selden, paints him as a scholar SO mastery
that we would think he lived only among
books, and had never spent an hour but 10
reading and writing yet so courteous and
affable that he seemed to have been always

ellis flock once called upon him with a
grievance. The Doctors neck bands were too
long for her ideas of ministerial humility, and
after a long harrangue ON the sin of pride,
she intmated that she had brought her scis-
sors with her, and would be pleased if her
dear pastor would allow her to clip them
down to her notions of propriety. The doctor
not only listened patiently to her lecture, but
handed her over the offending white bands
for her to operate upon. When she had cut
them to her satisfaction, and returned the
bibs, it was the DOCTORS turn.
"Now," said be, " my good sister, you
must do me good turn also"
"Yes, will, doctor what can it be ? "
Well, you have something about you
which is great deal too long and causes me
no end of trouble, and should like to see 1t
shorter"
"Indeed, dear sir. will not hesitate what
is 1T? Here are the scissors, use them as you
please"
