Z A. Freeman. in Macmillan's Magazine
When Sir James Macintosh in his speech
On behalf of Peltier, spoke of Napoleon Bona

empire that the civilized world ever saw it
was a rhetorical flourish, and IL NAV be that
the thought of Rome was not wholly absent
rom the speakers mind. When, q little later
Napoleon Bonaparte himself bestowed the
utle OF empire on his dominiOns, by no
means as q flourish, but formal title and a
title full of meaning, the thought of Rome was
aeSuredly not absent from his mind The use
OF the phrase british empire" as q technical
phrase, from which all memory of Rome has
passed away, Is good deal later than the use
OF the phrase French empire" as a technical
phrase, from which all memory of Rome had
certainly not passed away. In one use indeed
the Empire OF Britain and other phrases of
the like Kind are very old indeed. They are com
mon In the tenth and eleventh centuries
and they come in again in the sixteenth. They
are rare between the eleventh century and the
siNteenth. and they go out of use after the six

there was reason for using them, and they

assert TWO things-that the English king was

Britain, ana that the continental emperor was

TAI empire was again threatening, Henry VIII
again found IL needful to assert with nc small
emphasis that 1.-The kingdom of England is an
empire. mad made this remark long ago; it
mas been set forth with increased force and with
fresh proofs in the recent work OF Mr.. Fried
mann. In the seventeenth century when the
contlnental eInperOrs were no longer threaten
ing; ana when the common king of England
and Scotland had no need TO assert any lori
ship over himself such Language naturally
went out or use, or sank to the level of an oc-
edsional survival or an occasional flourish.

Bruce and the Pie-Man.

Bruce was a Scottish dog, that lived
in Edinburgh. His master kept a
grocery store.
A man used to pass almost every day
with meat pies to sell. He carried a
bell, and rang it now and then, to let
people know he was coming. He only
asked penny apiece for his pes, but
they were small, and an English penny
is worth about two of our cents.
One day Bruce was sitting at the door
of the shop when the pie-man came
along. He saw the dogs wistful look,
and gave him pie.
Bruce wagged bis tail for THANK
you," and put tho pie in his dinner
basket in hurry.
Ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, went the bell
next day. Bruce bounded out from the
shop, caught the pie-man coat in his
teeth, and would not let go. He did
not tear the coat. but showed very
plainly that he meant to keep the man
there till he had a pie. The dogs
master stood in the doorway.
The pie-man took penny out of his
pocket, showed it to the dog, and
pointed to his master Bruce under
stood. He bounded to his master 8
side, put his fore-paws on him, wagged
his tail, and looked up in his face with
eager, entreating eyes. The penny was
