A Game Of Leanfror.

Napoleon Bonaparte, as is well known,
was in the habit Of walking with his
arms crossed upon his chest and his
head slightly bent forward. Isabey,
the painter, was at Malmaison, and he
and some Of the first consul's aids-de-
camp were having game OF leapfrog
on the lawn. Isabey had already
Jumped over the heads OF most Of
them when at the turning Of path he
espied the last player, who, In the req
nisite position seemed TO be waiting for
the ordeal. Isabey pursued his course
without looking, but took his flight SO
badly as only TO reach the others shoul-
der. and both rolled over and over in
the sand.
To Isabey's CONSERVATION. bis sup
posed fellow player turned out to be
Bonaparte, who got up, foaming at the
mouth with anger, and, drawing his
sword, pouDced upon the unfortunate
artist. lsabey, luckily fQ himself, bet
ter at running than at leaping, took to
his heels and, jumping the bitches dl.
viding the property from the highroad,
got over the wall and never stopped
until, breathess, be reached the gates
of the Tuierics.
Isabey, II was added, went immedi-

and she, after having laughed at the
mishap, advised him to lie low for q

the ingenuity of John Frederick kom'

tiary at Hohenasperg. in Germany. He
invented the lncifer match while In his
gloomy dungeon. The German govern
ment forbade the manufacture OF
matches on the ground Of public policy
because some children playing with
them had caused fire. komerer was
ruined by Viennese competition when
he was released from prison and died
a pauper. Up to 1862 the Vienna man
