Talleyrand,. Intrigues.

At first he appears to have desired q
violent death for Napoleon, in the hope
of furthering his own schemes during
long imperial regency. At all
events, he ardently opposed the de-
parture of the empress and the king OF
Rome from Paris. Nevertheless it was
he who dispatched Vitrolles, the pas
sionate royalist, to Nesselrode with a
letter in invisible ink which, when de-
ciphered, turned out to be an inscrut-
able riddle capable of two interpreta-
tions. Lannes had long before stig-
matized the unfrocked bishop as q
mess of filth in a silk stocking; Murat
said he could take kick from behind
without showing it in his face. His
fellow conspirators were scarcely less
bitter in their dislike than his avowed
enemies. Yet he pursued the even ten
or of his course, scattering innuendos,
distributing showers of anonymous
pamphlets, smuggling English news
papers into the city, in fact working
every wire of conspiracy.-Prof. W. NJ

CURIOUS CEREMONIES.
Jumping Through the Fire and Other
Doings OF Latin Folk.

Jumping Through the Fire and Other
Doings OF Latin Folk.
A good deal may be CLEANED from
Ovid's works about rural ceremonies
and beliefs which were peculiar to
Italy. On the Calends Of May fell the
festival Of Pales, goddess of the sher-
herds, who was unknown TO Greece.
One of the customs connected with it
was the time-honored and long sur
wing rite Of jumping over and through
the fire. The sheep folds were gar
landed; fire made Of rosemary, pitch
tree. laurel and sabine herbs, brightly
cracked on the hearth. millet cakes
and warm milk are offered to Pales,
who is begged to protect the cattle and
those that tend them; to pardon tres
passes and shortcomings; to mediate
with the higher powers; to drive away
disease from men and fiocks. and from
the dogs also. and to give plenty Trough
the year.
Another peculiarly Latin folk wor-
ship was that of the Lares. The Greeks
who, at least in towns, did little more
than sleep at home, could not have en-
tered into the intense Roman seDti-
ment of the hearth. In Ovid's time tbs
Lares became established and en-
lowed; he says that there were
thousand at the street corners in Rome,
where Augustus had set them up in
company with his own genius, appoint
ing body of priests to look after their
worship. His encouragement OF this
domestic and hitherto purely popular
superstition is characteristic OF his
| policy in religious matters The Lares
| held their own at the crossways till
| they were rather succeeded than ousted
by the Christian saints. Ovid mentions
that the original Lares were repre-
sented with a dog, the typical house
guardian, at their feet; and he makes
the observation that 'crossways are
dear to dogs as well asto deities."
A wreath laid upon the tomb, scat
tered fruits, a few grains of salt, corr
soaked in wine, and the earliest violets;
with these the dead are content. 1t Is
said, remarks Ovid, that departed fore
fathers have been known to revenge
themselves in a disagreeable way TO.
neglect on the part of their ungrateful
descendants, but upon that he eS'
presses his own incredulity.-Contem.

"Ef We want ter go, Uncle Peter"
said Matthew, ''Tll stay en- watch 70
patch till you come back"
Old Peter was very fond of melons,
but it is doubtful IL he had tasted one
that season, for he was too stingy 10
eat any of his own. and therefore IL did
not take much more persuasion to in
duce him TO go. So, leaving Ring tied,

something about it."
If old Peter was asked his opinion as
tn who the thief could be, he would re-
ply:
"I doan'no, I'm shore. Hit amt TO
me ter say; but s'pect it war some
niger, en- want you ter onderstan' dat
nigger don't allus mean black folks,
neider, es yo'll fine out eff you look in
yo' dicshunary."
Old Peter attended a watermelon
patch one season, and was indefatigable
in his attention to it. Day and night
found him at his post, under shelter
that he had built of brush, to keep of
the sun and rain, armed with an old
gun. with which he was so dexterous,
as to be able to shoot blackbird on the
wing.
This feat always greatly astonished
one of his boy friends, who used to bor-
row the old gun and practice with it at
a mark ON the barn door; but he was
never able to hit the mark, and often
missed the door.
1t was old Peters dexterity with this
gun and the known fierceness of his dog
Ring that preserved his watermelons
and permitted them to grow and ripen
unmolested.
Over on Vinegar Ridge, about two
miles from old Peters patch, lived VIII
and Matthew Black. They had had a
patch themselves the year before, and
at the time had strongly suspected old
Peter of having something to do with
the disappearance of some of the fin
est melons, and after the season was
over had come into knowledge of facts
that convicted him beyond a doubt.
"Neber you min, Matt" said VIII.

A sinner, or repenter,
And his price
Price, price;
II he cuts goodly quantity of ice!
He has interviewed the ladies
Where each jeweled dame and maid Is
And each one of them afraidis

For the first solicitation

For their age
Age, age; a.,

When our colonies stand before him
They are not inclined to bore him,

To your colonelcy condition,
When you've not smelt amr1unltlon
In the fray

If the candidates were prancin at the pole
When he writes his book of travel
Ger the asphalt and the gravel,
Twill take scholars to unrayel
All his notes.
For he'll tell how statesmen shocked him
When their secrets they unlocked him:
How from off his feet they knocked him
Asking votes

And the prices paid their ta;lors for their

And ask us if our wages
