Upward Eyes.
Philadelphia Times.


 Although nonsense may be common in ultra fashionable circles, it is, nev- ertheless, often unique. At a recent afternoon tea I observed that one fair maiden remained consistently seated while the other girls walked about a great deal and struck pretty poses while in conversation with the gen tlemen. Somebody asked why this attractive creature remained in her chair.
 "Because she doesn't feel like stand- ing," was the reply.
 "Oh, then she is lamep"
 "No, no. She has upward eyes,"
 "And what are they?"
 "Why, she has discovered that her eyes are exceedingly handsome when wide open and looked down into, but when the observer is on a level with them they are not half so charming. It seems to be peculiarity of her orbs. So she sits down all the while when on exhibition, so that the fel- lows, when they stand before her in conversation, must gaze down into her face, and in SO doing encounter her eyes at their best"

Napoleon's Final Reptile.
From "The Campaign of Waterloo" by Johr
 C. ROneS.


 From "The Campaign of Waterloo" by John
 C. Ropes
 Preceded by numerous body of skirmishers, it Tthe French column nearly reached the top of the hill, where Wellington had stationed him. self behind Maitland's brigade of the English guards, which was lying down. The troops rose and fired on the skirmishers, scattered them, and then charged down the slope upon the mass, creating more or less confusion in it and causing it to fall back in some disorder. On an alarm of cav airy, however, the English guards retreated to their former position at the top of the hill, and the column of the Imperial guard resumed it's ad- vance. But in very few moments, Sir John Colborne, an officer of great dash and excellent judgment, com- manding the fifty second British reg iment, crack peninsular corps, moved his regiment from it's position near the angle of the English line, on Maitland's right, down the slope until it came opposite the head of the charging column; then, executing a partial lett wheel, his regiment, in line, fianked the French column, and poured into it at very short range a deadly fire. The column halted and faced so as in some measure to return the fire, and the action continued some minutes; other regiments par ticipating. Finally the second charged the column with the bayonet. The four leading battalions broke and fled,-the two rear battalions, those of the Old guard, not being opposite the fifty second, retired down the slope in good order.
 The rout of this column of the Im- perial guard demoralized those French troops who were witnesses of it. Moreover, at this moment the French right had been turned and thrown back in confusion and dismay. Ziethen's corps had arrived on the English lett just before the attack of the gard, and it was now advancing with resistless force Yelling ton, seeing the moment had come, threw in two fresh brigades of cav airy, those of Vivian and Vandeleur, and then ordered the whole line to advance. The rout of the French was sudden and complete. - Scr,6ne1'S MdgdziRe.

A DUEL AT SEA. .
The Conflict Between the Monitor and
 Merrimac in Hampton Roads.

Twenty-six years ago headlines sim liar to the foregoing startled the news paper readers of the world, and the details which followed were of intense interest. This, the first battle between irOnclad vessels, was notable event, and it was rendered unusually impor- tant in that it entirely and suddenly revolutionized the naval warfare of the world, and taught all the naval powers that the days of wooden war ships were numbered
 A grand, vivid, realistic and beauti- ful representation of the duel between the Monitor and Merrimac is now on exhibition at the panorama building on Michigan avenue, nearly opposite Battery D, which was formerly occu- pied by the Shiloh cyclorama. In the picture and its natural and mechani- cal accessories are blended the stirring events of the battle on both terrible days with features of grim -visaged war by field and flood. The burning Congress and the sinking Cumberland, the gallant Monitor and the huge Merrimac, with other war vessels of both the Federal and Confederate lines are seen, life size, in action. The heavy artillery of Camp Butler, the flying artillery of the Fourth New York, General Mansfield and utaff, sharp shooters, regiment of zouaves, all the elements of splendid war are presented, and the great event is de- picted throughout in superb and glorious style. 1t is something indeed that all should see. The lover of art, all persons interested in history, every- body who admires the grand, the beautiful and the gallant will be de- lighted with the glorious painting and it's appointments.
 That portion of the establishment which is occupied by visitors is com fortably and even luxuriously fitted up, and the management takes, at all times, special pains to pleasantly re- ceive and entertain it's patrons. The grand exhibition is open every day, "and Sunday too," from eight in the morning until ten in the evening, and MT. Will l.. Visscher, a well-known ex-soldier, newspaper man and lec- turer, is there at all times to explain to visitors the historical, geographical and general facts connected with the superb painting.

Why the Manuscript Came Back.
C. N. Hood. in March Writnr.


 Seven times sketch came back to my address and seven times placed it in new envelope and started 1t out in search of resting place. The eighth editor accepted it. Let me say right here that in those days I used an elegant white envelope, with a blue interior, for mailing manuscript, and enclosed one, stamped, for it's return. One week after it's acceptance re- ceived the manuscript back, without one word of explanation. Dazed, dis appointed, turned it over and over in my hands, and there on the back of the last sheet saw what enabled me to fathom the mystery; fourteen faint, crooked blue lines crossed and re- crossed each other in intricate design. Each time the manuscript had been mailed the moistened inside of that envelopes flap had left its tell-tale mark on the back of the last sheet, un- til it looked like mosaic design for fret-sa work. Even editorial iudg- ment was not proof against that.

Winchester is a good old Virginia town,
but is not quite as large or busy a place
as New York. But YOU would have hard
work to convince any Of her people that
such was the case. They are strangely
blinded to the defects Of the good old
place, and would prefer to remain there
throughout eternity asking no better
heaven. We saw this spirit strikingly
and amusingly displayed some nights ago
while coming from Main street church
in Woodstock. Some Winchester parties,
mighty nice ones, too, were in front OF ms,
aud we lost all the serious effect of the
sermon when we over heard one Of them
say to another, Look out for yourself on
these horrid pavements" Gracious! we
Just thought of the miserable apologies
for pavements in Winchester. Take Main
street, for instance. Hardly wide enough
for two persons to walk abreast, full Of
holes and abrupt Jumping off places, and
sloping towards the dirty cutters to de-
gree that compels you in places to hold
on to the buildings. Heaven save us,
they are horrid, indeed. Contrast them
with the broad, level, hard brick pave
ments Of our Main street, decidedly the
best in the State, and but few cities can
boast of their equal Nothing but the
singular delusion that dwells in the breasts
# all Winchester people would ever speak
4 pavements in connection with the little
srcaks Of brickbsts, mud, broken up
st'ne and garbage that line each side Of
th, streets of that old cemetery.
