Boon after the revolutionary war, abrave Yanke* officer, a former captain In the eerrifte, happened to be at Petersburg, In Russia, and while there, was Invited to dine at tho table of a distinguished Mon chant. There waa a large number of guests at the table, and amongst the rest an English lady, who waa anxious to appear as one of tho ‘knowing ones.* On understanding that an American was siting near her, alto expreaaed o’determination to quit hint. She fastened upon him like a tigress, making nu* mernus Inquiries touching our habits, customs, dreas, manneis, modes of life, education, smusomenti, &a- Tu all those queries tho captain gave courteous an* swora which seemed*to satisfy all the company with the exception of the lady herself.

A few evenings since, says the Boston Posit the! passenger train on the ■■■ ■■ Railroad arrived at a smalt village and stopping atihe depot, a loving couple got out and inquired the “way to the min ister's.” On reaching the house John made known his errand, which was.no other than to have the rite of holy wedlock performed. The' reverend , gentleman was just leaving to perform a service of another kind, and suggested that the parlies j should wait his return. But John was in a hurry, [and the minister thinking ho could inake a short case of It, consented to tarry; but the.bridegroom was not quite ready. Hit trunk was out on the platform, and said he, addressing the minister— “Spose you just help me in with it.” On getting it into the house he added— “ Just help, me up stairs with it; Elizabeth wants 'to dress;” 'This done; “And now,” said he to a 'young lady present as he descended, “Spose you go up.stairs and help Elizabeth dress.” ■ Surely such a request could not bedenied* :Tbe lady was dressed, and her toilet'duly made; as she was about to descend she bethought herself that John’s wedding “rig” was in the trunk, and khe Would thank the young lady, if dhe would take It into John’s room, and call him to get ready. ■ The rig was accordingly taken into an adjoining chamber, and the bridegroom showed “where he might make ready.” This occupied time. But st length the parties descended, and taking their (Rations, the service was about to commence. At this Instant John filed off to a-dlstant pqrt of the room, where the young lady was sitting, and Said to her— “Come now, spose yoo just go and stand up Side of Elizabeth, it will make her feel belter.” The lady acceded. The two were soon made “one flesh,” and the clergyman left, it was ex pected, of course, that the happy couple would take the latter train and proceed on their way that night.. But all hurry was now over. The parties seated themselves and seemed alhome. At length John spying a piano, said to the young lady, still in the room— “Come now ’spose you give os a tune on thal^ ' The lady complied; it was a sentimental song, and the bridegroom was In rapture. “Never heard such a right down good thing In mil. my life; and now ’spose you go right through jt again.” - it was repeated; about this time the car whistle announced the approach of. the train. They were informed; but John said ho “had no thought of go ing from such a confounded good place that nlglit.” They stayed; in thontorning they tpok the early train, and just as they were leaving, the generous and grateful bridegroom slipped aailver dollar into the hand of the clergyman, his eyes opening and glistening like the rising sun. “There,” said he, “take that, I’m going up to ——, I’ve a brother there; he’s going to be mar ried; I’ll send him right down here, for yoo do the thing eo handsome. The Negro Monarch. A French officer writing from Haytl, gives a por. trait of the Negro king, that is worth preserving for comparison with white ones—rwhile klnga'lsst: “We have seen his imperial majesty* the Emperor 1 Faustin 1. In the visit which we officers paid to h\m no received us with ail the etiquette of European monarchies. At our arrival.in (he principal court of the palace, (formerly (he residence of the French Governors,) we found ranged, in tolerably good or der, platoons of the footguarde and of cavalry, also on foot, who presented anna aa our staff advanced. I AAer having wailed for tome time id the first saloon, 'wo were introduced in the Saliie dee Mareobaux, i where the Guard Marahal advanced toward ue. He wore en elegant Lieutenant General's uniform Shortly after, one of the Urge doors was opened, an uaber cried, “The Emperor, gentlemen I" - Fausliri I. then entered, surrounded by' a alaff wearing bril liant uniforms, but awkwardly, and without taste'. The Emperor seated himself upon a raised arm chair, and begged of us, through hie Guard Marshal, to alt down. As to the courtand aids do camp, they remained standing, but were covered. AAer an in significant conversation of four or five, minutes, our commmdor rose, and wo took leave of the Emperor. We were accompanied to the donre of the palace by q veritable escort of generals. The Emperor is of a Very fine black, and la , well made; his features are l)ard, but intelligent. He wore a simple dark-green I coat, with the star of his order (Faustin I.) and the 1 grand cordon ot the Legion of Honor, white trousers, on admirably beautiful sword, a* magnificent oeno, and a mair of epaulette* ornamented with seven large start fn diamonde.

He haisent to Romo en ambassador to demand that a bishop shall come to crown him. : end make him en Emperor 'by the grace of God and of (ho Holy Soo.' It appears (hat Ilia, Holiness, who I reproaches Faustin I. with having somewhat uncer emoniously declared himself chief of tho IlsytUn ChUrch, tho orthodoxy of which is very contestable, and which has scarcely anything Catholic except I the name, has flatly refused. However, Faustin.]. has not yet lost all hope; and ho has recently spent I 750,000 francee In purchasing a throne, a prie»Dieu, I crosses, flags, velvet and silks; and he hac caused a I throne room to ho built, which is really admirable in decoration! and ric l * flangings. Out there it no | bishop. ,Hia majesty, wishing to sea all hie people, haa gone on a visit to different places, followed by hia guard and by five vr six* regiments, a very nu meroue cortege for such en occasion. The part of the island which was Spunlsli, and which now forms the Dominican republic, is much alarmed, as it fears hie majesty intends an invasion. The great powers, however, have declared that, In case of aggression, they will establish a blockade.

Napoleon in 1914 U * The Empirs had mads him old before his lime.— Gratified ambition, satisfied pride, the delights of a palace, a delicious table, a voluptuous couch, youth, fill wives, complacent mistresses, long/ vigils, sleep, less nights, divided between labor end festive plea sures, (he habit of constant riding, which made him corpulent, all tended to deaden his limbs and eher vale his faculties. An early obesity overloaded him with flesb. His cheeks, formerly streaked with muscles, and hollowed with the workings of genius, were broad, full and over hanging, like those ol Olho, in the Roman modal* of the empire. An excess of bile mingling with the blood,'gave a yellow Uni to the skin which at a distance looked like a varnish of pale gold on bis countenance. His lips still preaery. ed their Grecian outline and steady grace, passing easily from a amtie to a menace. His solid bony ohln Ibimed an appropriate base for his features.— ; His nose was bnl a line, thin ond transpirent. The paleness of his cheeks gavo greater brilliancy to the blue of hi* eyes. His look was searching, unsteady, yet a Wavering flame—art emblem of inquietude.— Ilia forehead seemed to have widened, from the scantiness of his thin black hair, was falling, from the moisture of continual thought. It might be said that his head, naturally small, but greatly Increased irt else to give ample scope between his temples’ for the machinery .sod dbmblnatioo of a mind, every thought.of which was sn empire. The map of the world seemed to have been entrusted to the orb of that reflectiro head. But it was beginning to yield; and he inclined it often on his breast, while crossing his arms like Frdoriok 11., so attitude and gesture Which seemed to affect, Unable any longer to ee dues his courtiers and his soldiers by tho oharm of youths, it was evident he wished to faclnste them by (he rough pensive and disdainful character of him. ■elf—of his model in his latter days. He moulded himself as U were into the stelae of reflection before his troops, who gave him tho nickname of “Father Thoughtful.” He assumed the pose of destiny.— Something rough, rude and savage in his movements; revealed his southern and insular origin.

So don’t grumble, but “ laugh and grow fat”— ltem, Betray not Confidence, For once that secrecy is formally upon,you, it is implied a hundred times by the concurrent cir cumstances. All that your friend says to you as a friend, is intrusted to you only. Much of what a man tells you in the hour of affliction, in sudden anger, or in any outpouring of his heart, should be sacred. In his craving for sympathy be has spoken to you as to his own soul. To repeal what you have heard in social Inter* course, Is sometimes a sad treachery; and when it is not treacherous, It Is often foolish. For you commonly relate but a part of what has happened, and oven If you are able to relate that part with fairness, it is still likely to be misconstrued as a word of many meanings, la a foreign tongue with out the.context. There are few conversations which do not imply somo degree of mutual confidence, however slight. And io addition to that which is said in confidence, there is generally something which is peculiar, thought not.confidential—which is addressed to ihe present company' alone, though not confided to their ssoresy,. It,ls meant for (hem* and they are expected to understand it righily* The Ungrateful Son. •‘The eye that moeketh at his father, the raven* of the valley shall plok it out.* 1 Pro. 30} 19. Till* is a terrible denunciation ogninsl ingratitude to pa rents, end oven in tho present day ti sometimes vir* tually fulfilled. Some year* ago on Irish gentleman, who was an eztsnslve contractor on our public works, wss rs* duoed to poverty by the profligacy and dishonesty of an ungrateful son. Ths old man lost hit wife, and, to add to hit calamity, his health failed; and; to fill the cop of bit sorrow, he lust hla sight. Thus poor, friendless, blind, snd forsaken, hs found an sqylum In the Franklin county alms house, Pennsylvania. While an Inmate of this refuge for the afflicted, hie wieked.and ungrateful son travelled that way; he was Informed ol his father's situation, snd that his parent wished to sea him; and although he baas* ed within two hundred yardsof the aline house, he refused to stop and see the kind father he had ruin ed.. Now maik the result. The very day he passed the elms house on hla way to Gettysburg, In an open carriage, he was overtaken by e elonn, and look a severe cold that resulted In the destruction of his eyes. He lay. In Gettysburg in a critical situation until hla funds were exhausted, aod those who had dm In charge took blm to the Frsnklin county alms house. Ths very day he was brought In, his father, Itav* ing died the day before, was carried out. He was pul In tbeaame room, and ‘occupied (he same bed, and in a short time followed his neglected end heart broken father to the Judgment aetl of Christ. It is Asrful thing to fall into tbe hands of an angry God. •• Attention thq Whole.** A 'major of militia, in Pennsylvania, who had recently been elected, and who was not overbur thened with brains, took it Into his head on the morning of parade, to go out and exercise a little by himself.
