The Late Prince Napoleon.

New York Sun.
There was much that was curious and
paradoxical about the Hate Prince Napo-
leon, and 1t was embematic Of his bsf-
He'd aspirations that people would not
even call him by his real name. He was
christened Napoleon after his great uncle
nevertheless nearly every one persisted
In giving him his fathers name, Jerome
Nor even as regards his appellation could
he persuade the world at large
to take him seriously or all
the Bonaparte family the man who
has Just died bore the closest physical
resem blance to Napoleon l. The likeness,
moreover, went much deeper than the
oountenRnce Victor Hugo In his STORY
of Crime. recounts remarkable in
terview which he had with the son Of the
OK King Of Westphalia not long before
the coup d'etat OF the % Of Dece mber
The poet was convinced that in the
prince he saw a sincere Republican,
the inheritor Of the inhexible Jacobin-
ism of Lucien, the elder brother
of the First Consul. But Hugo seems to
overlook the fact that Lucien himself
was not a more steadfast Jacobin in
fundamental principles than was Ma
poleon /. The latter distinctly reeog-
nized that Jacobinism was bridge indis
pensable for the passage Of France from
the old monarchy to the new empire,
The bridge, moreover, needed TO be kept
in constant and visible repair Once
burnt, there would have been no ade-
quate reason for the existence of the
empire.

italian Indignation.
Louisville Courier-Journal
IL is often said that there are no
classes In the United States. This is true
TO the extent that the theory upon which
our government Is. based forbids the
creation Of privileged classes. No title
Of nobility can be conferred by the
United States, in whose territory equal
rights to al and exclusive privileges to
none is the prevailing doctrine. No
constitutional provision or statutory
enactment, however Is powerful enough
to abolish all distinctions among
men. There are tall men and short men
rich men and poor men. Tat men and lean
men, fair men and dark men, young men
and old men, nstive-born and natural
lied citizens, men engaged in agrlcultu-
raj or commercial pursuits, manufac-
turers, and SO on indefinitely. These
are all equal before che law to the extent
that the theory Of our policy is carried
out. They form classes ia general
sense, but not In the sense that classes
exist In a monarchieal or aristocratjc
government AS all classes are
equal before the law, It follows
that all have an equal interest
in the enforcement Of the laws. II tan
man is hanged for murder all the other
tall men in the country do not feel that
their equality before the law is menacsd.
If fat man is sent to the penitentiary.
other fat men do not consider that their
liberties are put in jeopardy. The
reason Is that tall men and short
men, fat men and lean men. are put
by the law upon precisely the same
footing, neither having any exemption
that Is denied to the other, or incurring
any penalty to which all others are not
equally subject In the light of these
elementary principles, it would appear
that American citizens of Italian birth
have no more reason for indignation over
the recent tragedy at New Orleans than
any other citizens Of the United States.

Action neprodueed by photography.

Edison has perfected apparatus by
which he can reproduce, together with
the sounds of an opera or a play given
by the phonograph, on a white cur
tain in front of the audience the
original scene as true as life. The
audience will see the singers before
them, and all their movements and
gestures will appear as if they were
actually on the stage. Colors will not
appear, but otherwise they will see
and hear the opera as they see it at
theaters. The machine is, in fact, a
mechanical eye.
The machine is placed in front OF
the stage, operated by an electric
motor, and starts, moves, uncloses,
stops, takes photograph, closes,
starts. uneloses, stops, takes another
and so on, and forty-six of these are
recorded every second. This process
can be kept up for thirty minutes
without a pause, so that 2760 photo
graphs can be taken each minute and
80, 800 every half hour. Afterward the
Photographic slips will be developed,
replaced in the machine, and a pro-
iecting lens will be substituted for the
photograph lens Then the repro
ducing part of the phonograph will
be adjusted, and by means of a call
cium light the whole can be projected
upon a white curtain anywhere.

There has been discovered about
half mile west of the Bargytown
lodges twirling stone of about five
tons weight. 1t has always been re-
garded as a bowlder, and from the
way it is poised on the rock beneath it
no one could see why it should not
rock. Hundreds have tried to rock it
in vain. and the surprise of the man
who first felt it move under pressure
may better be imagined than described.
1t moves hard. of course. but it moves.
the finder informs us, round as if it was
placed upon pivot 1t has been care
fully examined. and while it looks like
a bowlder. several allege that it must
be a ceremonial stone set there by some
prehistoric race. This rock is creating

LIBERTY OF ARABS.
A Fable which Probably Has Not Much
Foundation in Reality.

Three men were disDuting. in the
court of the Caaba. which was the most
liberal person among the Arabs One
gave the preference to Abdallah. the
son of Jaafar. the uncle of Mohammed;
another to Kais Ebu Saad Abadah, and
the third gave it to Arabah. of the
tribe of Avs After much debate one
that was present, to end the dispute,
proposed that each of them should go
to his friend and ask his assistance.
that they might see what each man
gave and form a judgment according
". This was agreed to. and Abdallahfs
friend. going TO him. found him with
his foot in the stirrups. just mounting
his camel for a journey, and thus ac-
costed him: Son of the uncle of the
apostle of God, / am travelling and in
necessity Upon which Abdallah
alighted and babe him take the camel
with all that was upon her; but desired
him not to part with a sword which
happened to be fixed to the saddle. be-
cause it belonged to Ali. the son of
Abutaleb. So he took the camel and
found on her some vests of silk and
1000 pieces of gold; but the thing of
greatest value was the sword The
second went to Kais Ebu Saad. whose
servant told him that his master was
asleep, and desired to know his busi-
ness. The friend said he came to ask
Kais' assistance. being in want on the
road. Whereupon the servant said he
would rather supply his nececessity
than wake his master. and gave him a
purse of 1000 pieces of gold. assuring
him it was all the money then in the
house. He also directed him TO go to
those who had charge of the camels
with certain token. and take a camel
and slave and return home with
them. When Kais awoke and his sery-
ant informed him what he had done,
he gave him his freedom, and asked
him why he did not call him. for,
said he, L would have given him
more The third man went to Arabah
and met him coming out of his house
in order to go to PRAYER, and leaning
/ on two slaves because his eyesighi
| failed him. The friend no sooner made
known his case than Arabah let go the
slaves, and clapping his hands to
/ gether. loudly lamented his misfortune
in having no money. but desired him
to take the two slaves, which the mai
refused to do. till Arabah protested
that if he would not accept them he
would give them their liberty. and, ,leav
/ ing the slaves, CROPPED his way along
the wall. On the return of the adven'
tprers Judgment was unanimously ane
with great justice given by all who
were present that Arabah was the mos
i generous of the three.
