How Napoleon Made One Woman
Happy.

During The Emperor1s stay at Berlin,
says Madame de Remusat, the Prince OF
Hatfield, who had remained there, and
who, said the bulletins, .had accepted
the post OF Governor" kept up secret
correspondence With tie King OF Prus-
sia, in which he gave full accounts of
the movements Of our army,s Que of
his letters was intercepted. and the EN-
peror gave orders for his arrest and trial
before Military Court, His. wife, who
was with child, was in despsir; she OBJ.
tanned an audience of the Emperor, and
threw herself at his feet. He showed
her the Princes letter, and when the
poor young wife gave way to her sor-
row. the Emperor, moved with pity,
bade her rise, and said to her: ..You
have the original document. on which
your husband may be condemned, in
your own hand Take my advice, profit
by this moment to burn it, and then
there will be no evidence to coudemn
him." The Princess, without mo
ments DELAY threw the paper into the
are, and bathed the Emperor's hands
with her tears. This anecdote made a
greater impression on Paris than all our
victories.

Thought It Made NO Diference.

That tenon does not fit the mortise
by quarter of an inch," said an EN-
ployer to q young carpenter who, had
just begun to work for him.
81 thought for a garden gate you
would not he particular, and i. would
make no difference" answered the young
man. ssa
But it did make difference. 1t made
just the difference between the Young
carpenter having steady summer job
at good wages, and having his time un.
occupied on his hands.
The employer found no further fault
but when the gate was finished he PAID
the maker without another word and
dismissed him. The next day there was
another man in his place. He happened
to be man who thought 1t did make s
difference how everything was done; ht
always did his best; and kept his situa
ton to the end Of the season.
So it happens. Frequently some little
thing which was not expected to attrac
attention, is noticed by some one t.
whom the excellence of the work has
commended itself and the man who hal
made painstaking the rule of his labor
is surprised by sudden and unlocked
for accession of good fortune. He. ha'
been brought into note by some incon
sidered trife, which was welldone mere
ly because it was bis habit to do every
thing as well as possible.
On the other hand, many man is Ia
menting over i'll fortune, and don't know
what to attribute it to, owes it SOM
such carelessness in the way ofNloin,
his work as that which doomed th,
young carpenter to summers pro6tles
Iidleness.
Men are by no means always told bJ
what particular act they are judged; hu
any good performance is always liabl,
to make, and any bad performance i
always liable to mar fortune. s

why Uncle Phil Broke the Sabbath.

There are q great many people, in
their religion, that remind me of "Un-
Gle Phil" a pious old darkey of the old
times in Texas.
Well, Phil was a fervent Christian,
with great gift Of prayer. He atten-
ded all the Saturday night prayer.meet-
ings on the neighboring plantations, and
could pray louder and longer than any
of the brethren. But. Phil had one
weakness, he dearly loved money, and,
different from the negro generally, loved
to hoard it.
Near by us lived a man who, not
troubled by any scruples, would pay
Phil dollar to work IN his fields on
Sunday. One Sunday night Phil came
home after dark. / accosted him with
"Where have you been Phil ?"
"Oh, jest knocking about massa
.You have been working for Miller"
swell, you see, massa, the old fellow
is in weeds, and he Jest showed ine a
silver dollar and ! jest couldn't stand
it."
Saint you afraid the devil will get
you for breaking the Sabbath ?"
Phil scratched his head minute and
said:
i guess the Lord'll 'scuse me, massa.
"No.- He says, remember the Sab.
bath day and keep it holy"
Phil went off looking rather sober,
and it was not long before / heard his
voice in fervent prayer back Of the barn,
80 thought / would slip down near
enough to hear. "Oh, Lordm / have
ripped and teared, cussed and sweared
at them confonnded oxen Of Miller's
and jest broke the Sabbath day. Oh,
Lord, please forgive me; please forgive
me, for you knows Pse nothing but q
miserable heathen anyhow. II you'll
Jest forgive me this time II. never. do il
again as long as / live, 'ceptin' he gives
me % 80 day."
AT this point ! was obliged to beat .
hasty retreat, bnt / am thinking tha,
poor Uncle Phil isn't the only % 5s
Christian in this world.

THE CHARMED BULL. !,
Yet the Rrutss Could Torture Him.
[Cadiz Letter.l

--~~-~~ 4 q
Notice had been posted in all the pub
lie places that on a certain day tue bull
called "El Moro" would he introduced
into the arena, and that, when be should
have beer. goaded 10 the utmost fury,
Young girl would appear and reduce the
animal to quiet snbjection. The people
of Catliz hsd heard of Ell Moro as the
most magnificent bull ever brought ~
the city, and il soon became known that
tue girl thus advertised, was a peasant
girl VI Espara, who had petted the bulI,
and fed and cared for il during the years
OF its growth. On the appointed day
the vast amphitheaier was filed with an
anxious, eager crowd. 9hfee bull&had
been killed and. dragged away, and then
the flourish, of trurnpets announced the
coming Of the hero of the day. With
deep, terrific roar, Ell Moro entered
upon the scene. He was truly magniff-
cent-a bovine monarch black and elos-
sy, with eyes Of fire, dilating nostrils
and wicked-looking horns.
The picadores, attacked him warily,
hurled their, banderillos (small, dart.
like javelins, oanamented with ribbons,
and intended to goad and infuria,e).
The bull had killed three horses of. hand,
and had received eight handerilos in his
neck and shoulders, when, upon given
signal, the picadores and matadores
suddenly withdrew. leaving the infuria~
ted beast alone in his wild d'proxysms of
wrath. Presently soft musical note,
like the piping OF lark, was heard, and
directly afterwatd a girlnot more than
fifteen years Of age, with the tasteful
garb Of an Andalusian peasant, and with
a pretty face, sprang lightly into the
arena, approaching the ball fearlessly, at
the same time calling out his name,
"Moro! Moro. YA 5oy!" Atithe first
sound of the sweet voice the animal
ceased his fury and turned toward the
place whence it came. and, when be saw
the girl he plainly manifested pleasure.
She came to his head and put forth her
hand, which be licked with his tongue.
Then she sang a low sweet song, az the
same time caressing tue animal on the
forehead, and while she sang the suffer-
ing monarch kneeled at her feet. Then
she stopped and gently removed the
cruel banderillos, after which, with her
arms around Ell Moro's neck, she led
him toward the gate OF the torril.

A splendid Dairy

through the whole season. But he must
supply the cows with what they need in
order for them to be able to keep up
their product. When their butter gets
light in color he must make it "gilt edg.

Perfected Butter Color. 1t gives the
golden color OF June, and adds five cents
per pound to the value Of the butter.

A FLOWER FOR THE DEAD.

"A ChO w h1S E'yIl IdE DEADs
You placed this flower in her hand, you say,
This pure pale rose in her hand of clay!
Methinks, could she lift her sealed eyes,
They would meet your own with grieved sur
prise
She has been your wife for many a year.
When clouds hung low and skies were clear;
At your feet she laid her life's glad spring
And her summers glorious blossoming.
Her whole heart went with the hand you won
II its warm love waned as the years went on;
If it chilled in the grasp of an 10y spell,
What was the reason2 1 pray you tell.
You cannot? can; and beside her bier
My soul must speak, and your soul must hear
If she was not all that she might have been,
Hers was the sorrow, yours the sin.
Whose was the fault if she did not grow
Like rose in the summer? Do you kuow5
Does lily grow when its leaves are chilled?
OoeS 1t DlOOm Wnen 1CS rOOt Is Wlnter-k1lleQs
For little while. when you first were wed.
Your love was like sunshine round her shed;
Then something crept between you two:
You led where she could not follow you.
With mans firm tread you went and came;
You lived for wealth. for power. for fame;
Shut into her woman's works and ways, sx
She heard the nation chant your praise.
But, ah! you had dropped her hand the while
She, worn and faded before her time.
'Tis a common story. This rose. you say,
You laid in her pallid hand to-day.
When did you give her flower before9
All, we'll! What matter. when all ls,o'er?
Yet, stay moment. You'll wed again.
l mean no reproach; tbs the way of men.
But pray you think, when some fairer face
Shines like a star from her wonted place.
That love will starve if it is not fed;
That true hearts pray for their daily bread.

L'Argcntinc ntSt. Louis.

The exhibition of Texas horse flesh Mt the
st. Louis Jockey club races on Wednesday
last, in the beautiful person of Major Bark
ley's mare, L'Argentine, was one in which
all Texas with thoroughbred tastes will
take an interest. The Globe-Democrat de-
scribes the purse race won by the Texas
horse as follows:
"I'Argentine got off with IA rush that gave
her u lead of four lengths on Himysr, who
was two lengths before Expectation. Robi-
son wasted no time, but cut out the work
from the fall of the flag to the stand, and,
running the first quarter in twenty-six Sec
onds, passed the string, possessing an advsn-
tage Of eight lengths over HiInyar, who was
Immediately in front of Expectation. The
race was one-sided and monotonous to the
half-mile, where L'Argentine led fully tlf-
teen lengths, and the Others were unchanged
The general impression was that Hmyar
was unable to run at all, as it was not be.
lieved that his jockey would otherwise have
permitted the mare to take so commanding
lead. Rounding the turn the stupid darby
gave Hmyar his head, and the noble animal
quickly electrified tho vast audience by in.
dulging the greatest flight of speed ever wit
messed at Cote Brilliante, or perhaps else
where. In less than quarter of mile, not.
withstanding the fact that LArgentine raj
the quarter in 20 seconds, he closed dozer
lengths on her, and swung into the home
stretch close on her heels. This brush elci
ted EXPLANATIONS of admirations from all or
the grounds, and shouts of she'll win yet,
came from all sides. This phenomena
work, however, pumped him out, and
although the mare had exhausted herself b,
running the first mile in l:42l and could only
do the final quarter in 27a, she was able tC
win by three parts ofa length in 2:lO}. TIT
finish was whipping one. Expectation wa
beaten off. While hackers of the field cheered
Himyar's supporters denounced Bush in un
measurable terms"
