He took an active part in the

strife, at its ending he, like thousands OF
others, was left poor, having lost his
stock of goods, his negroes and oven his

Eugene was chiefly remarkable for the
taste and splendor of her toilets. OF her
might be thus paraphrased the epigram
on Charles II-she never wore shabby
thing and never said wise one. Like
most Spanish girls, she had received a
very limited education. She was narrow
minded and uninteilectual, though very
sweet and winning in her manners. The
witty or appropriate remarks which she
as empress was called upon to make in
public were all written for her before
hand, and she was AS carefully coached
in them as ever was an actress in the
speeches Of new bart. In fact, she had
no talents except for dress. She. tried

She instituted the rule that at the sum-

lady accepting it the purchase of ward

as postmaster of an office near his home

complied with, and the. documents
were duly inspected, not without some

friends, both highly respectable and
compel ntmen, were, as appe red from
the papers, about "neck- and-neck,' in
the race for Office 50 far as influential
signatures on either side could make
them so. But suddenly light dawned
upon the Senator. A neatly written
note in a lady's hand writing came to
view, applying for the office in her own
behalf, and giving bat q single name as
reference, and that the name of the hon
orable Senator himself. He had known
her deceased husband intimately and
most favorably for many years, and was
no stranger to the young widow herself.
After moments reflection he carefully
