Napoleon's Library.
lThe Academy.

Many of NApoleon's biographers have incidentally mentioned that he, like one of them (M. Thiers), used to carry about wherever he went. whether travelling or campaigning; but 1t is not generally known that he made several plans for the construction of portable libraries which were to form part of the baggage. Some interesting information upon this head is given us by M. Louis Barbier, who for many years had the care of the Louvre library, and who bases his information upon some memoirs left by his father, who was librarian to Napoleon himself For a long time Napoleon used to carry about the books he required in several boxes holding about sixty volumes each. These volumes, which were either octave or duodecimo, stood upon shelves inside the boxes, which were supplied by the well-known cabinetmaker, Jacob. They were made of mahogany at first, but as it was found that this was not strong enough for the knocking about they had to sus. tain, M. Barbier had them made of oak, and covered with leather. The inside was lined with green leather or velvet, and the books were bound in morocco. There was a catalogue for each case, with a corresponding number upon every volume, so that there was never a mo- ment's delay in picking out any book that was wanted. As soon as the em- peror had selected his headquarters dur ing a campaign these cases were placed in the room which was intended to be his study, together with the portfolios con- taining his letters and maps. In course of time, however, Napoleon found that many books which he wanted to consult were not included in the collection, and upon inquiry the reason was informed that they would not fit into the cases. This, of course, was an answer which did not satisfy one SO imperious, and, while residing at Bayonne in I8o8, he dictated the following memoir, which was sent to M. Barbier: "Bayonne, July I7, 1898 The emperor wishes to form a travelling library of one thousand volumes in small Izms, and printed in handsome type. It is his msjesty's intention to have these works printed for his special use, and in order to economirs space there is to be no margin to them. They should con. tain from 500 to Goo pages, and be bound ia covers as flexible as possible, and with spring backs. There should be 70 works on religion, 40 dramatic works, 40 volumes of epic and 6o of other poetry, 100 novels, aud 6o volumes of history, the remainder being historical memoirs of every period"

between love and shame causing her to look upon him and to hide her face. So having talked together, they were married according to the rites of a GandharvA and great was the joy of thb newiy-made husband and wife. futTata having bid bid den farewell to her, full of love, and with his mind continually dwelling upon her, went, towards the end of the night, to the house of that old woman. Thus every night vas passed by him going and returning. At last one of the guards discovered Patali's love intrigue, and he revealed it to her father, who then appointed a woman to watch her by night in secret inner chamber. And so finding Putraka there asleep she marked his garments with rcd dye. And early in the morning, the Raja being informed of what was done, sen, out everywhere messengers Putraka being recognized by the mark, vas taken from the old, dilapidatsd house and brought before the Raja; and seeing that the lord of men was angry, he flew up into the air by means of the shoes, and entered the palace of PAtali. He said to her, "We two are discovered get up and let us fly with the help of these shoes.' And so taking Patali in his arms they flew through the sky. When near the banks of the Ganges, having descended from heaven, he rejoiced his wearied be loved one with food produced by mean. of the magic vessel. His magic power being observed by PAtali, Putraka va, requested by her to mark out there, with his staff, city furnished with complet, army. There he became Rsja, and h;; power having become in truth great, h, conquered his father-in-law, and ruled over the broad seashore.
 This is that divine city made by magi, and thus it is called Patalipu,ra the lanc of wealth, Sakshmi, and eloquence, Sat asvati.

How Boys Should be Taught.


 Long before scientific subjects and for- eign tongues are begun boys should be taught their own language. Le, them be- come acquainted with the ordinary branches, reading, writing and arithme. tic, and ip the earliest stages with nothing more, unless in cases of decided taste. At the age of 9 or To comes the true time for learning languages. Then the child can acquire more in this department than a man Of 7s. At this date first began my own Latin, and ] think that Greek may well be begun a year or % later. This language period continues until about I7, and up till this time don't sp- prove abstract scientific teaching. Les children become acquainted wi.h the ob- jects with which science deals. Bat at this age abstruse scientific reasoning often injures the brain. Afer IF I3. how- ever. these subjects may be introduced. In my opinion boy should be prepared for college as I6. 1 know that in the German gymnasia the higher teaching begins at 10 and lasts until Is, when the young men enter the universities. Bu. these institutions are far more elaborate and better equipped than our primary schools, and the young men who are sent from them to the universities are e high ly educated as those h the sophomore class of an American college.

ULTIMA vRRITAs.
BY WASHINGTON GLADDEN.

Tn the bitter waves of woe, Beaten and tossed about Bv the sullen winds that blow From the desolate shores of doubt; When the anchors that faith had cast Are dragging in the gale, am quietly holding fast
 To things that cannot fail. I know that right is right,
 That il is not good to lie. That love is better than spite, And a neighbor than a spy; know that passion needs The leash of a sober mind; know that generous deeds Same sure reward will find; That the rulers must obey, That the giyers shall increase, That duty lights the way
 For the beautiful feet of Peace In the darkest night of the year, When the stars have all gone out; That courage is better than fear, That faith is truer than doubt; And fierce though the fiends may fight, And long though the angels hide, know that Truth and Right Have the universe on their side; And that somewhere, beyond the stars, Is a love that is better than fate When the Night unlocks her bars shall see Him, and will wait.

4 Spy In ths Camp.
lExehsnge.i

Toward the end of the winter oi i77o. Peter the Great made ali preparations for a campaign. The army was placed on . war footing In the quickest possible man. ner, and only waited the breaking up of the ice. Where the army was. destfned for was only known to the txaS, his wife and Prince Menschikoh. People had racked their brains for ieng time, and exhausted themselves in endeavoring to divine the object of these preparations even the ambassadors of foreign powers themselves, in spite of all their efforts, failed to fathom the object 0f mobiliza- tion, and were embarrassed as to what .hey should report as the cause for these preparations to theiT respective courts until at last the veil vas Hfsed. Peter had only spoken of the campaign which he vas about to undertake ts the Empress and Prince Menschiko6 and one occasion the subject gave rise to a warm debate, which closed with the words, " Ei Persi podiom." We aie going to Persia
 4 tew days aites the latter convessa- ton, the emperor asked one of his sdju. tants casually what was the istest psws in Petersborg5 His assoaishmsnt may be easily imagined when the officer sn- svered him:
 The most important nsws is that we are going to march on Persia"
 Ths emperor, qaite psrplsxsd, asked him sharply fFop whom he had beard this, and received the stiIl more surpns. ing answer:
 |" heard t from spy in your msjessy's own camp, even from one who was pres ent when your majesty spoke those words that is, from the empsesS parrst. Yss- tcrday, having occssion to make . com munication to her majesty the empress ia this room, heard the parrot quite dis tipetly repeat, Fl Persi podiom.'"

This sad reflection comes to my mind
 because yon have not wife such as you deserve. But here is girl the daughter of Raja, called PAtali; and she ii guarded like jewel in one of the highes, inner apartments of the palace" While he listened to these words of the old woman with great attention, the god oi love, finding heie in his heart, entered by that very path. Putrake said, "I am resolved that this girl shall be seen by me this very day" He flew there by night through the sky by means of tn ( shoes. He entered by window, the top of which was as high as a mountain peak there within the palace, in private apart. ment he saw Patai asleep, continually attended upon by the moonlight, which seemed to cling to her limbs, while she looked hke fae power of the god of love become incamate, wearied and resting, after conjuring this world. While he thought saying to himself how shall 1 see her," suddenly on the outside some waschmen began to sing, "Embrace the beloved one, sweetly signing, opening her languishing eyes, when you awake her from sleep." And having heard this opening song he embraced the beloved one with trembling and excited limbs and then she awoke. When she saw this

That Story on Sherm an.

p WASHINGTON CRY, Jan. 19-With refer
ence to story recently told in these dis
patches, In which it is stated that Gen. Sher-
man, just before the rebellion broke out told
a Mr.. Richeson, of Vicksburg, Miss, that he
would lose his right arm before he would
fight against the south, the following state
ment is made: Gen. Sherman never held q
commission Of major in the army. When
the southern states went into rebellion
Sherman was private citizen, and Had been
for eight years prior to that time. The facts
are that Sherman resigned from the army in
1858, holding at the time the rank Of captain.
When the rebellion began he was teaching
school in Louisiana, and leaving his
school, Immediately hurried to Wash
ington, and in company with his
brother, John Sherman, called upon Presi
dent LINCOLN and rendered his services to the
government, Itwas promptly accepted, and
on May IA, 1861, William 7. Sherman was
appointed colonel of the Thigteeth United
States infaptIy, ona OF the new regiments,
and confirmed at the extra session convened

Fatal Disaster at Sea,

HoLYHEAD, JAN 19-The ship Santa
Clara, plying between New York and Liver
pool, arrived at this port Friday evening,
having on board two of the passen-
gers and twelve of the crew of
the overdue steam packet Admiral
Moorsonr The captain of the Santa Clara
reports that his vessel left Liverpool on
Thursday last for New York. The weather
was thick with quite heavy sea running.
Everything went WELL however, until off
Holyhead, when the lookout deserted
the outline of vessel bearing
straight toward her. The alarm was at
once given, but before anything could be
done to prevent collision both vessels came
together with crash, almost head on.
The prov Of the Santa Clara tore through
the bow and side of the Admiral
Moorson, nearly cutting her in two The
vessel sank almost Immediately. The Santa
Clara hove to and at once lowered her boats.
They succeeded in picking up twelve
of the crew Of the Admiral Moor
son and two Of the passengers, The
remainder of the crew, twelve in all, and
four passengers were drowned. After
searching for some hours in the hope OF
picking up more survivors, the Santa Clara
made for this port. She is but slightly in
jured, and will resume her trip to New

Important Questions Decided in Illinois.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, Jan. 19-The attorney
general of the state says in mis- report just is
sued:
At the date of the last report there was
pending in the United States supreme court
two suits involving the constitutionality of
the state laws prohibiting extortions and un-
just discrimination in the carriage of
passengers and freights by railroads
They were entitled Neal Ruggles VS. The
People of the State of Illinois, and the Illinois
Central Railroad company VS.. The People OF
tho State of Illinois Both cases were decided
in favor of the state, and sustaining the con-
stitutions, but denying that these laws
could be applied to railroad companies car
rylng freight or passengers across the state
lines, was pending in the courts of the state
at the date of my last report. This was the
case of The People of the State of Illinois vs.
The Wabash, st. Louis e. Pacific Railroad
company. This case has been decided finally
doctrine there established that railroad COM
panies can not unjustly discriminate be-
tween individuals or places in their carriage
of freight, even though the freight is to be
carried to places outside Of the state The
case has, however, been taken by the rail-
road company to the supreme court of the
United States, where it is now pending If
the federal congress should pass law regu-
latlng interstate commerce, this case in
