Observation-Disclosures.


A. little while ago. I stood by the
tomb of the first Napoleon, magni-
ficent tomb of gilt and gold, fit almost
for a dead deity, and here was a
great circle, and in the bottom there;
in a sarcophagus rested at last the
ashes of that restless man. I looked
at that tomb, and L thought about
the career of the greatest soldier OF
the modern world: As I looked In
imagination I could see him walking
up and down the banks of the Seine
contemp plating suicide: I could see
Him: at FToulon; could see him 1T
Paris, putting down the mob; I could
see him at the head OF tile army !ot
Italy could see, Him Crossing the
bridge Of the Lodi with the shadow
of the Pyramids; I saw him returning
-Isaw him conquer the Alps. and min
gle the eagles of France with the
eagles Of italy; saw him at Marengo;
I4saw him at tAusterltz;;;::1 saw him Hi
Russia where thesinfantry Of: the snow
and the blast smote his legionss wi1eri
death rode the Icy winds Of winter. I
saw him. at Liepsic hurled. back. upon
Paris; banished andI saw him escape
from Elba and ;retake an empi Re. ~
the force of his genius. sa:I*saw HIM al
the field Of Waterloo, where fate and
chance combined. to- wreck the for
tunes of their. former king. l. saw
him at st. Helena with his hands; be-
hind his back, gazing out upon the
sad and solemn sea; and II !, thought
of all the widows he had made,;of all
the orphans, of all the tears that had
been shed for his glory; and I thought
OF: the woman. the; only, woman who
ever. loved him, pushed. from his heart
by the; cold, hand Of mbitton-arid. I
said to myself, as'::.I gazed;; 1vwould
rather have been a. French, peasant
and worn wooden shoes, and lived in
little hut with the vine running over
the door and the purple, grapes grow
Ing red in the amorous= kisses: Of the
autumn sum would rather have
been that poor. French peasant to, cit
in my door, with my wife knitting by
my side. and my children upon 81
knees, with their arms around my
neck-I would rather have. lived and
died unnoticed and unknown except
by those who loved me, and gone
