THE E.M•PRESS OF FICANCE.2 When a few centuries shall have thrown their shadoi's upon the strange fortunes of NaPoleon,! and given everything about him the tinge of mance., the story of his fitst -wife will seem to .the student rather a fable than a fact; he will look upon her as we look upon Mary of Scotland. but With a deepeeinterest ; fur she far more truly than her lord, was from first to last ; " the _child Of destiny." Told, while get unmarried, that she would be a wife, a widow, and then Queen of France, the entire fulfilment of the first part of the. prophecy gave her courage to believe in 'the last Ott also when under 'sentence of death. When her bed was taken from under her because she was to. die the next morning, she told her weeping friends that it was not so, that shi would sit upon the throne,-on the ruins of which ,Robes Pierre stood triumphant; and when asked in mockery to choose. her maids of lionei, since she was to'R — Qcreen, she did thoose, them and they were her maids of honer when half of Europe looked .upon" her.— On that night which was to have been her last upon earth,', Robespierre fell. Had he fallen a few days earlier, her husband would have lived ; and had be fallen one day later, Josephine her self would have been among the ten thousand victims, whose names we have never heard. But he fell that night, and her destiny was accom plished. She married Napoleon. He W 35 appointed to the army. of Italy;. step by, .step they rose, till' at last the crown rested on her ,head; the Second part of. the prophecy was inbred true ; and she beganfolook forivard to that loss of poWer and rank WhiCh had also been foretold, and which , was to cloie the strange drami of her life. Awl he that had Wedded the child of destiny grew every day more strong and grasping. In vain did Jose phine attempt to rule his 'ambition and chasten his aims; he was an Emperor; - he wished to found an empire, and by slow degreei he made him self familiar With the:thought of putting her away. . - When the campaign of !800 was at an end, hardened and 'nerroored, the General came back to bis .. wife' -.his former kindness was gone; his play . fulness was checked, he consulted her but seldom; and seldom stole upon her private Fours. with that familiar love that had made her heart leap. She saw her hour draw near. It was on the evening of the :oth of Novero her, the court was at Paris in honor of the King f of Saxony. Josephine sat at the window look ing down upon the ricer, and musing on the dark fate before her; when she heard Napoleon's step at the door. She sprang to open it. Using the exclamation .mon ami he embraced her so sfrec , I tiortatelv that fo- an instant an fears and woes seemed vain. She led him to a chair, placed her-j self at his feet sod looking up d into his face sm il e d through her tears. You are unhappy, Josephine," said the Ern per-or.. , . " Not with You, sue. " a Bah'!"' said be quickly. "why call me sire 1 These shows of state steal all true joys from me'!" .-Then why Teel them!" 'answered Josephine.

"it is not . it is France that demands it." / Are, you sure of That, my lord !" said his sin Te. "have you probed your heart to the pot tom! Is it not Entution which prompts ••citi to seek reasons for repudiating' me; f or think not Napoleon, I misunderstand coil—tire jou safe it is the lose of Fiance?! / Every word that she spoke touched him to the quiet ; and risk:le - hastily be replied, " Madam.

He turn• ed to embrace her again.', But in that moment her face and form had changed.' He felt himself in the presence of 'a superior being. She led him to the winder; and threw it open. A. thick mist bong over the Seine, and over the garden palace. all around there Was silence; among the stars shinin'g between them, there was one far brighter than the rest; she pointed to it. “Bona7arte." said she, "that star is mine; to that and not to yours, was promised an empire; through me and my destinies you have risen ; part from me and you falk The spirit of her who foresaw my rise to.royalty even now tells me that Your fate hangs'upon mine. Believe me or not, if we hence forth walk asunder, you will leave no empire behind you, and will die yourself in shame and sorrow, with . a broken spirit." ' He turned away sick at heart and overawed' by the words of one whose destiny fiad been so strangely accomplished. Ten days were ' , passed away in resolves . and' counter resolves ; and then the link that bound him to fortune was broken. Josephine was divorced. and as he said himself when at St. Helena, from that very hour hi; fall commenced. . Josephine was divorced, but her lose did not cease to her retirement she jnyed in ' his successes, and ayed that he might-be saved from the fruits of his,wild ambition. When the son was born, she only regietted that she was not near in his happiness; and when.bi went a prisoner to.Elta, she'begged that She might share his prison and his woes. Every article that be bad 'laid at his residence, remained 'as be left it ; she rinuld not let a chair be, moved. The book in which he had been last reading there, with the last page 'doub led down and the pin which he last used by it, with the ink dried on the. point: When her death drew near, she wished to sell her jewels and send the fallen emperor money; and her will was submitted to his, discretion. She died before his . return from. Elba ; but her' last thoughts • were of him.and 'France; and her last words 'expressed a hope.and belief • that she had never caused' a single tear to flow." She, was buried in the vil lage cturch of Roil, anil her body was _followed to the grave not only by princes and generals, but by two thousand poor whose hearts hid been made glad-with the fruitis of her. bounty.

ORIGIN OF THE HUMAN' RACES.— The Charleston Mercury, in giving some brief ,hut interesting reminiscences of Nehemathla, a chief of the Seminoles, relates the foll Owing to show What is the tradition, among this tribe of the Indians at least,in relation to the origin ofthe white, red and black. races: .‘ In't he progress of . the ne. gotiation at Camp Moultrie, in 18'23, between the C. S.' Commissioners and the Indians, it became important to ascertain the population of the Semi nole nation. By request, a census was handed • in by the chiefs, and on'the, commissioners ask ing if.the statement embraced the blacks, and who were slaves, there was so violent a burst of indignation from Nehemathla as to reqdires ie joindlerand reproof from those who represented . the United States. On sxplaining the motive of theAligitiry, however, that the commissioners in the allotment of territory,' were desirous of pro viding for the negro as well as the Indian, Nehe mathla was reconciled to the supposed indignity cast upon his people,- and the negotiation, pro ceeded and terminated harmoniously'. On the exchange of documents and treaties, the commis sioners receiveofthe head chiefs of the Seminoles at an entertainment. On the, removal of the cloth,.(for Nehemathle. Blunt, a nd many °there, were not ignorant of the forms and courtesies of the dinner-table,) and while the glass walcircti lating. Nehemathla adverted to the unpleasant in cident of the morning, in which he hid exhibited so much temper. 'He stated that they had among them a wise man,, a philosopher, who had corn-_ munion with the 'Great Spirit, and that if agreea ble to the commissioners, it would be gratifying, to him that he should bet beard, that they might read in his revealmente the only apology be had to offer fur the displeasure he had 'expressed on .the negro being considered a member of the Red Family. The wise Mali cornmensed':- 4. In the beginning, the Great Spirit made this earth.• and he was ple'ased with is hunting grounds, its rich soils, its mountains and valleys, its oceans arid rivers.
