Nap6Ieon and watsrloo.

There is nothing in the result of the Waterloo icamDaign to show, any de cline 1n Napoleon 'sa powers of mind. The plan of the campaign as laid down by the emperor was a most brilliant one, and had it not rained on the night Of the 17th of June Napoleon would in all slikelihood have kept his throne. Had 1t not rained and made the land miry he would have had his artillery in position four hours before he actual ly did. and Wellington would have been disposed of long before Butchers arrival. Even as it was, the Iron Duke was pretty well used up when the Prussian came up on his left. Napo- Icons genius never shone more bril- Aantly than it did in his last campaign. He was defeated by the elements and by the unaccountable stupidity of some Of his Heutenants.-NeW York Ameri- can.

An Earlx Mall Papar.

On preparing room in Bradbourne Hall, Derby shire, in 1882. found, part N covered by an old oak cupboard, considerable remains of quite early eighteenth century wall paper, of pale green tint. with a flowing pattern in darker color on it. This paper was made in squares of about twenty inch es, and I was able to rescue two or more complete pieces. It had been printed on rather thick paper from woodcut blocks, and each square was hailed up with coarse iron tacks about one and half inches apart, each tack being run through squares or washers of brown leather. so that both tack heads and washers showed all around each square of paper. It is possible that this wall paper was of late seven teenth century date Bradbourne Hall. in the lower peak. is a picturesque house, almost unaltered, of the time of James l., having been then fashioned from the canonicaI house of the Au- gustins of Dunsta b1e.3 It was just the place-''far from the madding crowd where curious details of domestic decora tions would survive.-London Notes and Queries.

The Forbiddan City,

Picking has been a city for something like 5000 years, first as the capital of 8 small state, then destroyed, again re built and finally nodded into the form in which we now know it, with It's Chinese Tartar, Imperial and For bfdden cities, each with it's inclosing wall Nobody has ever yet attempted to tell the full tale of it's intrigues, its cabals, plots and counterplots. Few know anything about them. No one person knows them all. If only the bricks that form the walls could find a tongue, if only the pavilions on the Coal Hill could produce the sights and sounds that have fallen to their lot to see and hear. there would doubtless be a tale to tell which might vie in inter est and dra noatic force with anything that 4ncient Rome or Babylon has giv- en, even through the medium of fc- don. Mercury.

The House Was shaky.

When John Quincy Adams was eighty years of age he met in the streets of Boston an old friend. who shook his trembling hand and said, "Goed morning. and how is John Quincy Adams today ?"
 ''Thank you.'' was the ex-president's answer. John Quincy Adams himself is well. sir, quite well. thank you But the house in which he lives at present is becoming diIapidated. It is tottering upon it's foundation. Time and the seasons have nearly destroyed it. Its roof is pretty we'll worn out. Its walls are much shattered, and it rembles with every wind The old tenement is becoming almost uninha bit able. and think John Quincy Adams will have to move out of it soon. But he himself is quite well, sir; quite well"
 With that the venerable sixth presi- dent of the United States moved on with the aid of his staff.

Tine cvnie,s Point of View


 Of course we all like to know that pur enemies are vulneeable but it is only the cynical elect who can appre- ciate with fine epicurean fastidiousness the glorious revelation that their friends are human after all. And it is not only the weakness of those near and dear to us, but their misfortunes and annoyances. which give a thrill of illicit joy to those honest contortion- iSts who can look in their own hearts. I once heard young mother say that there was only one thing which gave her greater pleasure than hearing that the children of her friends were sick, and that was to hear that they were bad. No one but brom-idiot (to bor row the excellent root with which MT Gelett Burgess has enriched us) would think of condemning this young.woman for being malicious or unkind. Misery is not the only human quality that loves company. Some of her distant relatives = Anxiety, Discouragement. Annoyance-are equally sociable.-At- lantic.

The ancient AssyEians nearly 5000 years ago put in moist clay their seals, engfaFed in intaglio upon precious stones. on chests and doors, in order to prevent their being opened There were no locks or keys in those days. If they wished to send a private let ter they would often seal it with a hippogrif. which fabulous winged horse was regarded as the emblem of secrecy. Centuries later the Greeks and Romans adopted similar devices for the same purpose.
