Shakspeare's bungling attempt to describe their ceremonies

BADGE AND BADGE
OR, CHILDREN VS. NO CHILDREN
BY W, 0. EATON
Mr. and Mrs. Bidge and Mr. and Mrs.
Badge were nest door neighbors. Mr. and
Mrs. Bidge had eight children—four boys
and four girls : but the Badges had neith
er chick nor child.
Disappointment and discontent is the
common lot of mortals. The Bidges were
mortals—io were the Badges; and discon
tent reigned in the Bidge house, while dis
appointment was the prevailing feature in
the dwelling of the Badges.
The fact was, that Airs. Bidge hated
children, and in turning herself into a
Bidge, she had got more than she had bar
gained for. ,Sad was Mr. Bidge to contem
plate the lack of maternal auection which
was evinced by his wife.
"Ain't they your own children I" he
would ask pathetically.
".No, they ain't; they are yours !" she
would spitefully reply; "1 never wanted
any: It is your own fault."
There was no answering a remark like
that, and Bidge like a true Christian,' put.
up with the taunt, partly perhaps because
he thought he deserved it, and at any rate
because he could'nt help it. Mrs, Bidge
said she could'nt help it, and of course the
little Bidges could'ut—and so there they
were, a family of Bidge martyrs, enveloped
.in a.daily cloud t nf discontent.
Disappointment' was the feeling that
knocked the daylight out of the happiness
of the Badges. They were an honest, fru
gal, straight-forward, philoprogenitive hard
working couple, and it would give us pleas
ure to record that they were destined to
multiply a virtuous posterity, had such
been the agreeable fact; but it cannot be
.disguised any longer that the Badges had
been married for ten years, and had appear
ed to pay no more regard for their coun , -
try's.ceiasus than if they had been foreign
ers, resolved to : take no part in swelling the
ranks of Native. Americans.
„Bat we should neither run leap, rush,
hop or sling ourselves at conOlusions. We
..should.approaehi them carefully by a reas
oning process, and when we investigate
this matter of the 'Badges, with theSCard:
ty of their labels, and. the sole, reason why
short of tlii) iiiatdirional.mark,was
he m me . a ,thAt which pievenli the • poor.
from becoming rich—they were not able.
The perversity of mortals is past bear
ing. They are always grumbling at their
situations. The Badges grumbled because
they had no children; the Bidges because
they bad; and if the Bidges had, been the
Badges, and the Badges the Bidges, no
doubt they would have grumbled just as
much. Such unreasonable people deserve
to be made examples of, and here we'do it,
right in print and in public.
One of the severest trials of Mr. Badge
was to sit in his parlor, with a batik win
dow open, and spe Mrs. Badge looking out
into the back yard of the Bidges, praising
the little Bidges at play, imd enjoying the
good fortunes of their parents in having
them. It seemed to him as if Mrs. Badge
did it to tantalize him. This was unchar
itable in Badge.
"0, come, do see the little Bidges v,
do see ! do see !" said Mrs. Badge, clap
ping her hands.
"What is there so very interesting,
about a parcel of children making fools of
themselv'es ?" growled ,• Badge, secretly
wishing he had three or four to begin
with.
"Fools of themselves !" said Mrs. Badge
angrily. We were all fools once, Mr. Badge
and some of us havn't altered much since.
For my part there is nothing I delight so
much in as children; they are innocent and
full of little cunning, interesting ways.- 1 -
How happy and proud the Bidges ought to
be. Oh, dear, how lucky some people are !"
"Bulges !" echoed Badge contemptuous
ly; "Bidges ! It is nothing but Bidge,Bidge
Bidge, with you, from morning till night.
Why don't k ou think of the Badges ?"
"Where are they 3" retorted Mrs. Badge
significantly; looking around.
"I suppose I am one," said Badge with
offended dignity.
"Well," said Mrs. Badge.
"And.you're another."
scAnd what then ?"
"Ain't we a family 1" said Badge, half
pathetically.
Mrs. Badge burst into a sneering laugh.
"A pretty family, ha ! ha! We were as
much of a family before we were married.
What's the use •of getting marrit.d, if we
are a family 1 Look at, the Bidges."
"0 dear ! there you go again !" exclaim
ed Badge, and for half an hour the child
less couple engaged in a regular squabble
of oriminations.
Let us look into the next door and see
what the Bidges were doing at this precise
thne.
"Sam tore his trousers, Lizz.y's frock is
spoilt, Tom's got a splinter in his foot, and
Sally's lost one of her bracelets ! This is
what comes of having a squalling family of
young ones to bother one's life out. Dear
me ! I believe there's no such thing as rest
for me this side the grave !" said Mrs.
Bidge.
Mr. Bidge said nothifig. The iron of
remorse was in his soul, and his wife's lam
entations kept wriggling it there. Mr.
Bidge felt that he was a fixed father. He
mused awhile. Suddenly a thought, lu
minous as a lightning bug, smiled upon his
doldrums.
"Mrs. Bidge, I have it !"
"What'!"
"What do you say to a jaunt into the
country 1"
"With all these children to see to? It
can't be. It would be worse than staying
at home."
"But I mean, leave them home, and have
somebody to take care of them."
"Easier said than done."
"I'll try, at all events. What do you
say to the Badges."
Mrs. Bidge, struck with the force of the
proposition, held up her hands in a delight
ful state of hope. Bidge put on his hat.
"0, if they only would ! " said Mrs.
Bidge. Bidge moved to the door.
"Tell them there's only eight !" said
Mrs. Bidge. Bidge moved to the door:
Bidge was gone for twenty minutes, and
returned from a successful mission. The
Badges were overjoyed at the proposal,
and had agreed.
• On the following day, Mr. and Mrs.
Bidge left dull care behind them and went
into the country ; while Mr. and Mrs.
Badge assumed the care of eight young
Bidges. Happy arrangement of affairs—
Badges were so fond of children-treasures
beyond their power to possess.
Since the - first years of their marriage,
the Bidges had not enjoyed themselves
half so well as during the first two days
their absence from home. 0, how relieved
they felt. How they realized the bliss of
liberty. No young ones to see to; no re
sponsibility; no noise; no confusion; no
whippings to give; no meals to get; no
clothes to mend; no children to dress, or,
send to school, or put to bed. Of their
companions in pleasure seeking, none were
more enthusiastic or gay and agreeable
than they.
On the third day their ardor began to
abate, and while Mr. Bidge was consider
ing how his business in town was getting
song, Mrs. Bidge also grew thoughtful,
and wondered how the:children were. Not
either of them were anxious about return
ing. At least, both said so.
On the fourth morning, Mrs. Bidge was
sorry that she hadn't told the Badges to
write to her about the children. Who
knows but what some of them were Sick ?
Supposing one of them should die in her
absence—the little innocents ! She would
never forgive herself. And then she began
to think. of a great many things which. no
body could do for them like a mother.—
The, Badges didn't know anything about
it. Mr. Bidge shared' the anxiety, and
his eyes would brighten when his wife re
counted a smart thing such a child had
said, what another had lone, and what
such and such a person had praised them
for. During the day, these feelings in
creased in strength, and very little sleep
did either enjoy on the fourth night.
On the fifth morning, somehow, the
country did not seem as pleasant as before.
There wasn't life and variety enough.—
They thought if the children were only
with them, they would .be perfectly con
tented, It was selfish in them to leave
the darlings behind. No doubt they were
all crying for them to come back.
On the fifth 'evening, they felt so very
worried and lonely that they determined
to return to their dear home and sweet
children on the folloWing day.
Meanwhile the Badges had their hands
• full'; of doniektic cares. Delightful re

CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY M
Mrs. Badge, seemed inspired with a new
life. She was here, there and everywhere,
and doing everything. She felt a pride in
showing her husband what she could do if
she had a family of her own. How ami
able and interested she was in everything
that could contribute to the comfort and
joy of the little Bidges. Badge did all he
could to please them in his awkward way,
but Mrs. Badge was a . perfect, miracle of
maternal tenderness. The children, pleased
with the novelty, and the presents, and
the unusual indulgence, got along agreea
bly enough. Nobody scolded or whipped
them, denied them anything, or sent them
to bed" before they wanted to go. What
nice, good folks they thought the Badges
were, and hoped father and mother would
not come home soon.
But there is an end to all things, as the
sailor said, when the cable ran out, and
the whale hauled him overboard.
,ROMAJ.NCE OF REAL LIFE
THE MOTHER OF LOUIS NAPOLEON
Mr. Abbott, in his admirable papers on
Napoleon Bonaparte—as published in Har
per's New Monthly Magazine, gives a chap
ter in the history of the great captain, the
principal facts of which will be read with
particular interest at the present tune. it
is stated that Josephine contemplated the
extraordinary grandeur to which her hus
band had attained, with intense solicitude.
She saw that more than ordinary regal
power had passed into his hands, and she
was not a stranger to the intense desire
which animated his heart to have an heir
to whom to transmit his name and his
glory. She knew that many were intima
ting to him that an heir was essential to
the repose of France. She was fully in
formed that divorce had been urged upon
him as one of the stern necessities of State.
One day, when Napoleon was busy in his
cabinet, Josephine entered softly, by a side
door, and seating herself:affectionately up
on his knee, and passing her hand gently
through his hair, said to him with a burst
of tenderness, "I entreat you, my friend,
do not wake yourselt king. It is Lucien
wbo urges you to it. Do not listen to him."
Napoleon smiled upon her kindly, and
said, "Why, my poor Josephine, you are
mad. You must not listen to these fables
which the old dowagers tell you. But
you interrupt me now; I am very busy;
leave me alone."
Josephine was at times almost delirious
in, apprehension of the awful calamity that
threatened her. She knew the intensity of
her husband's love. She also knew the
boundlessness of his ambition. She could
not be blind to the apparent importance,as
a matter of State policy, that Napoleon
should possess an heir. She also was fully
aware that throughout France marriage had
long been regarded but as a partnership
of convenience, to be formed and sundered
almost at pleasure. "Marriage," said Mad.
de Stael, "has become but the sacrament
of adultery." The nation, under the influ
ence of these views, would condemn her
for selfishly refusing assent to an arrange
ment apparently essential to the repose of
France and of Europe. Never was a wom
an placed in a situation of more terrible
trial. Never was an ambitious man ex
posed to a more fiery tempation. Laying
aside
,the authority of Christianity, and
contemplating the subject in the light of
mere expediency, it seemed a plain duty
for Napoleon and Josephine to separate.—
But gloriously does it illustrate the immu
table.truth of God's word, that even in such
an exigency as this, the path which the
Bible pointed out was the only path of
safety and grace. "In separating myself
from Josephine," said Napoleon afterward,
"and marrying Maria Louisa, I placed my
foot upon an abyss which was covered with
flowers."
Josephine's daughter, Hortense, beauti
ful, brilliant, and amiable, then but eigh
teen years of age, was strongly attached to
Duroc, one of Napoleon's aids, a very fash
ionable and handsome man. Josephine,
however, had conceived the idea of marry
ing Hortense to Louis Bonaparte, Napo
leon's younger brother. She said one day
to Bourrienne, "My two brothers-in-law
are my determined enemies. You see all
their intrigues. You know how much un
easiness they have caused me. This pro
jected marriage with Duroc, leaves me with
out any support. Duroc, independent of
Bonaparte's friendship is nothing. He ha;is
neither fortune, rank, nor even reputatik
He can afford me no protection against the
enmity of the brothers. I must have some
more certain reliance for the future. My
husband loves Louis very much. If I can
succeed in uniting my daughter to him, he
will prove-s strong counterpoise to the cal
umnies and persecutions of my broth
ers-in-law." These remarks were
reported to Napoleon. He remarked,
"Josephine labors in vain. Duroc and Hor
tense love each other, and they shall be
married. lam attached to Duroc. He is
well born. I have given Caroline to Murat
and Pauline to Le Clerc. I can as well
give Hortense to Duroc. He is brave ;he
is as good as the others; he is general of
division. Besides, I have other views for
Louis."
In the palace the heart may throb with
the same joys and griefs as in the cottage.
In anticipation of the projected marriage,
Duroc was sent on a special mission to
compliment,the Emperor Alexander on his
accession to the throne. Duroc wrote of
ten to Hortense while absent. When the
private secretary whispered in her ear, in
the midst of the brilliant throng of the
Tuileries, have a letter," she would
immediately retire to her apartment.—
Upon her return her friends could see
that, her" eyes were moistened with the
tears of affection and joy. Josephine cher
ished the hope that could she succeed in
uniting Hortense to Louis Bonaparte,
should Hortense give birth to a son, Na
poleon would regard him as his heir.—
The child would bear the name of Bona
parte; the blood of the •Bonapartes would
circulate in his veins; and he would be
the offspring of Hortense, whom Napoleon
regarded as his own daughter, and whom
he loved with the strongest parental af
fection. Thus the terrible divorce might
•be averted. Urged by motive so powerful,
Josephine left no means untried to ac
complish her purpoSe. •
Lonis•Bonaparte was a studious, pen
sive, imaginative Dian, of great moral
worth, though pcissessing brit little force
of character. He had been bitterly dis
appointed in his affections, and was weary
.of the world. When but nineteen_years
of age le had formed a very 'strong at-,
taehmentler a young dady - whom he•hed
met in Parb. She • was the aught& of
an emigrant noble, and his whol.'

became absorbed in the passion of 1. ye.—
Napoleon, then in the midst of thb : vic
it
tones which paved his way to. the town
of France, was apprehensive that e al
liance of his brother with ;one of e old
royalist families Might endanger hi 3 own
ambitious projects. He tb.etelare sent
him away on a military commission, and
secured, by his powerful instrumentality,
the marriage of the young lady to another
person. The disappointment preyed, deep
ly upon the heart of the sensitive 'young
man. All ambition died within hio He
,tii
loved solitude, -and studiously a, oided
the cares and pomp of State. Na Leon,
not having been aware of the e' extreme
strength of his brother's attachment; when
he saw the wound which he had i "cted
upon him, endeavored to make 1 l the
amends in his power. Hortense was beau-
tiful, full of grace and vivacity.
Napoleon fell in with the views ,ol
phine, and resolved, having unit.

possible, by lavishing great favors

The Largest Mill in the World.—The Low-_
ell (Mass) Journal says: "The largest and
most comprehensive mill in the world is the
Pacific, at Lawrence. It makes none but the
finest kinds of goods, and the success of its
operations is looked to with' great interest by
manufacturers. The floor surface of this im
mense striicture is sixteen acres; the largest
mill is England is eleven and a half acres.—
There are now in operation 40,000 cotton spin
lee, and 10,000 worsted spindles, and these are
to be increased to 80,000 and 20,000 respec
tively. There are 1200 looms in operation, to
be increased to 2400. These, with two thou
sand hands, produce 300,000 pieces of cloth
per annum, one half delaines. The weekly
consumption of cotton is 20,000 pounds—say
1,5,0000 per annum, and 500,000 pounds of
wool. Once a month, the two thodsandhands
assemble at the' Cashier's office, where Mr.
Clapp pays out to them $50,000 for wages, ap
propriating to each one the exact amount she
