Heroic and Unbcrofc Dppartnreti • of (irenl Men -- Some Tragic Event* in Human History. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE. One of the first to come to miod in ' modern times is Napoleon Bonaparte, the most glorious conqueror among the French lenders. . Thiers has given a *rivid picture of the great Emperor's • last days: The jear 1821 came at last, that rear that was to terminate the wondrous career of Napoleon. At the commencement of January his health improved, but only for a few days. "It is a respite," he said, "of a week or two, and then the disease will resume its course." He then dictated a few passages concerning Csesar to March- and. They were the last he wrote. February brought no other change than an increased intensity of the symptoms. Not being able to digest 'food, the august invalid became weaker every day. He was tormented by intense thirst, and his pulse, once • BO slow, beat with feverish rapidity. He wished for air, though he could not endure it when admitted. "I am no longer," he said, "that proud Napoleon whom the world has so often seen on horseback. The monarchs who prose­ cute me may set their minds at rest. I shall soon remove every cause of fear." Napoleon's faithful servants jiever left him. Montholon and March- and remained day and night by his bedside, an attention for which he showed himself profoundly grateful. It was at this time that his captors : > manifested an entirely unnecessary ,• severity of espoinage or watchfulness. Sir Hudson Lowe, who was immedi­ ately responsible to the British gov- oerAment for the custody of Napoleon, Clnsi&ted that he should be seen every day by some of his guards. This was very offensive to the sick Emperor, but some of bis suite managed to satisfy the British officers of Napoleon's pres­ ence. The captors were exceedingly ' suspicious, and even when Napoleon was dying they believed he was keep­ ing in seclusion to plan an escape. The great commander made every business preparation for his end. Meeting death with a smile as dig­ nified as it was grateful, he said to 31ontholon: "It would be a great pity not to die, now that 1 have arranged all my affairs ,so well." The end of April arrived, and every moment increased his danger and ' suffering. He had no relief from the spasms, vomitings, fever, and burning thirst. "You will return to Europe," he said to those who surrounded him; you will return, bearing with you the reflection of my glory, With the honor of your own fidelity. You will be es­ teemed and happy. I go to meet - Cleber, Desaix. Lannes, Massena, Bes- »sieres, Dnrac, Ney. They will come to ; me, they will experience once more the intoxication of human glory. We shall > speak of what we have done. .We ' shall talk of our profession with Fred­ erick, Turenne, Conde, Ctesar, and Han- + "nibal." Then pausing, Napoleon added with a peculiar smile, "Unless there • ahonld be as great an objection in the upper sphere as there is here below to see a number of soldiers together." On the 3d of May he became delirious, and -amid his ravings these words were dis­ tinguished : "My son. The army. De­ saix." It would seem as though he had a last vision of the battle of Ma* rengo recovered by Desaix. The agony continued during the day of the 4th, , and the noble countenance of the hero was terribly distorted. The weather was terrible--it was the bad season in Helena. Sudden gusts of wind tore up some of the planted trees. Nearly every American schoolboy of a quarter of a century ago has declaimed: Wild was the night, yet wilder night Hung round the soldier's pillow, In his bosom there raged a fiercer fight Than the fight on the wrathful billow. On the 5th of May there was no doubt that the last day of this extraor­ dinary life had dawned. All his serv­ ants kneeling around his bed watched the last flickering of the vital flame. These were unfortunately attended • ';«with bitter suffering. The English of­ ficers, assembled outside, listened with respectful interest to tbe accounts the servants gave of his agony. Toward the decline of the daj his life and suf­ ferings decreased together; the cold, extending from the extremities, became »- genera], and Death seemed about to seize his glorious victim. The weather had become calm and serene. About 5:20, when the sun was setting in waves of light, and the English cannon gave • the signal for retiring, those around the bed perceived that the patient did not breathe, and cried out that he was dead. They covered his hand with . kisses, and Marchand, who had brought ;o St» Helena the cloak the first Con­ sul had worn at Marengo, laid it over his body, leaving only the noble head uncovered. The convulsions of the death agony, always so painful to wit­ ness, were succeeded by a majestic tranquility of expression. That face, wondrously beautiful, now restored to the slenderness of youth, and the fig­ ure, clad in the mantle of Marengo, ', seemed to present again to the wit­ nesses of that touching scene, Gen. Bonaparte in the meridian of liis glory. • * FREDERICK THE ORE AT. While Bonaparte was just treading the threshold of his great career, an­ other military genius was dying. A genius wonderful to contemplate, in tom« respeots a mghtier cemmandwr than Napoleon, and certainly in one re­ spect, the most essential, entirely sur­ passing him--'hat is, he was finally successful, reigned long, died on the throne, and by his masterful achieve­ ments laid the foundation of the splen­ did German Empire of to-day. The following description of his death by Carlyle is peculiarly interesting: Tuesday, August 16,1780.--Contrary to all wont the king did not awaken till 11 o'clock. On first looking up he seemed in a confused state, but soon recovered himself, called in his Gen­ erals and Secretaries, wbo had b?en waiting so long, and gave, with his old procision, the orders wanted--one to Bohdich, Commandant at Potsdam, about a review of the troops there the next day, an order minutely perfect in knowledge of the ground, in forosight of what and how the evolutions were to be, which was accordingly performed on the morrow. The Cabinet work he went through with tue like precision of himself, giving on every point his three clerks their directions in a weak voice, yet the old power of spirit, dictate to them among other things an "instruc­ tion" for some Embassador just leav­ ing,--"four quarto pages, .which," says Herzbug, "would have done honor to the most experienced minister," and in the evening lie signed his missives as usual. This evening still--but no even­ ing more. We are now at the last scene of all, which ends this strange, eventful history, Wednesday morning. General, Adjutants, Secretaries, Commandant, were there at their old hours, but word came out, "Secretaries are to wait.*' King is in a kind of sleep, of stertorous, ominous character, as if it were the death sleep; seems not to recollect himself when he does at intervals open his eyes. This slumberous, half stupi- fied condition lasted through the day. Toward evening the feverishness abated; the King fell into a soft sleep, with warm perspiration, but on awak­ ening complained of cold, repeatedly of cold, demanding wrappage after wrappage, and, on examining feet and legs, one of the doctors made signs that they were, in fact, cold up nearly to the knees. "What said he of the feet ?" murmured the King Bome time after­ ward, the doctor having stepped out of sight. "Much the same as before," an­ swered some attendant. The King shook his head incredulousy. He drank once, grasping the goblet with both hands, a draught of fennel water, his customary drink, and seemed relieved by it, his last reflection in this world. Toward 9 in the evening there had come on a continual short cough and a rattling in the breast, breath more and more difficult. Why continue? Fried- rich is making exit on the common terras; you may hear the curtain rat­ tling down. For the most part he was unconscious, never more than half con­ scious. As the wall clock above his head struck 11, he asked, "What o'clock?" "Eleven," answered they. "At 4," murmured he, "I will rise." One of his dogs sat on its stool near him; about midnight he noticed it shivering from cold. "Throw a quilt over it," said or beckoned he. That, I think, was his last completely conscious utterance. Afterward, in a severe ohoking fit, getting at last rid of the phlegm, he said: "La viontagne est pas-sfte, nous, irons, mieux." We are over the hill, we shall go better now." Attendants, Heazberg, Salle, and one or two others, were in the outer room, none Friedrich's but Strutski, his kam- merhussar, one of the three who are his sole valets and nurses; a faithful and ingenious man, as they all seem to be, and excellently chosen for the ob­ ject Stxutzki, to save the King from hustling down, aa he always did, into the corner of his chair, where, with neck and cheat bent forward, breathing was impossible, at last took the King on his knee, kneeling on the ground with the other knee for the purpose, the King's right arm around Strutzki's neck, Strutzki's left arm around his back and supporting his other shoulder, in which posture the faithful creature for about two hours sat motionless till the end came. Within doors all was silent except his breathing; around it the dark earth silent, above it the si­ lent stars. At 2:20 the breathing paused, wavered, ceased. Friedrich's life battle is fought out; instead of suffering and sore labor, here is now rest Thursday morning, August 17, 1786, at the dark hour just named. On the 31st of May last this King has reigned forty-six years. "He has lived," counts Bodenbeck, "78 years, 6 months, and 24 days." His death seems very starn and lonely; a man of such affectionate feel- nigs, too; "a man with more sensibility than other men !" But so had hia whole life been, stern and lonely; such the severe law laid on him. ' r*-\ OLIVER CROMWELL. •' ' *• • It is Carlyle again who farafalfefl His own approachable delineation of the last scene in the earthly career of Eng­ land's famous "Protector." Truly it is a great scene of world history, this is old Whitehall--Oliver Cromwe'l drawing nigh to his end. The exit of Oliver Cromwell and of English Puritanism's great light, one of our few authentio solar luminaries, going down now amid the clouds of death. Like the setting of a great victorious summer sun, its courso now finished. "So stii'bt ein held," pays Schiller. "So dies a hero! Sight worthy to be worshipped!" He died, this hero Oliver, in resignation to God, as the brave have all done. "We could not be more desirous that he should abide," says the pious HarVey, "than he was content and willing to begone." The struggle lasted amid hope and fear, for ten days. Some small miscella­ neous traits, and a confused gleanings of last words, and then our poor his­ tory ends. Among the ejaculations eanght up at intervals during the final days are the following: "I think I am the poorest wretch that lives, but I love God, or rather am beloved of God." "I am a conqueror, and more than a conqueror,, through Christ . that strengthened me!" So pass in the sick room, in the sick bed, these last, uncertain days.' "The godly persons had great assur­ ances of a return to their prayers;" transcendent huigan wishes fiud in their own echo a kind of answer! They gave his highness also some assuranoe that his life would be lengthened. Hope was strong in many to the very end. For several days the conflict lasted, and then, when the morrow's sun arose, Oliver was speechless; between 3 and 4 in the afternoon he lay dead. Friday, September 3, 1858--"The consternation and astonishment of all people," writes Fauconberg, "are inexpressible; their hearts seem as if sunk within them. My poor wife--I know not what to do with her. When seemingly quieted, she burst out again into a passion that tears her very heart to pieces." Hush; poor, weeping Mary! Here is a life battle right nobly done, Seest thou not? Tbe storm la changed into calm At Hia command and will; Bo that the waves which rafed before Vow quiet are and still. Few words tell tha story of tb daath of him who saved Waterloo to the British, but these ffejr words are emi­ nently suggest!^ find tbow how insep­ arable is the profeflional warrior from his sword and its use. The account Is Eainfully brief: His sovereign visited im in his latest moments at his oha- tean in Silesia, to which he replied: "I know I shall die," said the veteran. "I am not sorry for it, seeing fetafti i am no longer of any use." SIB CHARLES KAPIEB* Sir Charles Napier, one of the pre­ eminent fighting heroes of the English army, though not one of the towering leaders among armed men. still may be appropriately noticed in this connection. He bore the pall at the bnrial of the Duke of Wellington, and this funeral was the prelude of his own. On the morning of August 29, 1853, he expired like a soldier, on a naked camp bed­ stead, the windows of the room open, and the fresh air of Hepven blowing on his manly face. Surrounded by his family, and a few of his neighbors, he died. All his grieving servants were present, and at his feet stood two vet­ erans of his regiment, gazing with a terrible emotion at a countenance then settling in death which they had first Been beaming in the light of battle. As the last breath escaped, Montague McMurdo snatched the old colors of the Twenty-second Regiment, the col­ ors that had been borue at Meanee, and Hyderabad, and waved them over the dying hero. Thus Charges Napier passed froin this world. An intrepid soldier in his life, he died amid trophies of battle, and hu camp-bed waa his bier. The colors of the Twenty-sec­ ond gently waved over liim, and be­ tween them and the grand picture of Meanee leaned forward above his pale, heroic countenance, as if to claim his corps for that bloody field. JOAN OF ARC. The strangest military phenomenon of all history was Joan of Arc, and her cruelly pathetic end has enshrined her in the choicest tragic romance of the age. Those whom she had delivered repudiated and sacrificed her, and his­ tory has no parallel to this colossal ingratitude. In 1431 she was put to death. The frightful ceremony of burning her began with a sermon. One of the lights of the University of Paris preached upon the edifying text: "When one limb of the Church is sick the whole Church is sick." This poor Church ceuld only be curod by cutting off a limb. He 'wound up with the formula: "Jeanne, go in poace; the Church can no longer defend thee." There are conflicting stories concerning her recantations and confessions in presence of this dreadful ordeal, but she appears to have emerged into the final trial with unsullied luster. Deserted by the Church, she put her whole trust in God. She asked for the cross. An Englishman handed her a cross, which he made out of a stick. She took it, rudely fashioned as it was, with no less devotion, kissed it, and placed it under her garments next her body. While she was embracing the crucifix which was afterward given her, the English began to think the per formance exceedingly tedious. It was now noon; at last the soldiers grum­ bled, and the Captain called out: "What's this, priest? Do you mean us to dine here ?" Then, losing patience, and without waiting for the order from the bailiff, who alone had authority to dismiss her to death, they sent two constables to take her out of the hands of the priests. She was seized at the foot of the tribune by men-at arms, who dragged her to the execu­ tioner with the words: "Do thy office--. The fury of the soldiery filled all present with horror, and many there, even tlie judges, fled from tbe spot, that they might see no more. She was made fast under the infamous placard "Heretic, relapser, apostate, idolator," and something worse, and then the ex ecutioner set fire to the pile. She saw this from above and nttered a cry; then, as the brother, who was exhort­ ing her, paid no attention to the fire, forgetting herself in her fear for him, she insisted on his descending. No doubt hopes had been entertained that upon finding herself abandoned by the King, she would at last accuse and de­ fame him. To the . last she defended him. "Whether I have done well or ill, my King is faultless; it was not he who counselled me." Meanwhile the flames rose. When they first seized her the unhappy girl shrieked for holy water--this must have been the cry of fear, but soon recovering, she called only on God, on her angels.' and her saints. She boro witness to them: "Yes, my voices were from God; my voices have not deceived me." Ten thousand men wept. A few of the En­ glish alone laughed or endeavored to laugh. One of the most furious among them had sworn that he would throw a fagot on the pile. Just as he brought it she breathed her last. He was taken ill. His comrades led him to a tavern to recruit his spirits by drink, but he was beyond recovery. "I saw," he ex­ claimed in his frantio despair, "I saw a dove fly out of her month With her last sigh." Others _ had read in the flames the word "Jesus," which she had so often repeated. The executioner repaired in the evening to Brother Isambart, fulljof consternation, and confessed himself, but felt per­ suaded that God would never pardon him. One of the English King's Secre­ taries said aloud, on returning from the dismal service, "We are >ost; we have bnri),e<} a sain t" f Treatment oF Infants. "You should have a thermometer to ascertain the proper temperature of t&e water," said a fond mother to tbe colored nurse who was giving the bah(jr a bath. "Wbaffor?"

Toe Much Hesitation. "What was the matter between you arid another party, Mike, on the ave­ nue last evening?" inquired an Austin citizen of his Hibernian porter. "Well, sor, ye see it was a bit of hes­ itation on his part." * "A bit of hesitation?" "Yes, sor. You see, I gave him the choice of me two fists, an' he seemed to hesitate loike.

"How's Your Lirerlw In the comic opera of '13M IfflrMtf" his Imperial Highness says: "To make, to some extent, t KaohevtlUv*r -* A raaatac river "p'"; % Of taarmlMS merriment" A nobler task than making evil llvsM fiv­ ers of harmless merriment no person, klnr, or layman, could take upon himself. The liver, among the ancients, wag considered tlie source of all a man's evil immilses, and the cbancea are ten to one to-day that if one's liver is in an ugly condition of discon­ tent some one's head will be mashed before night! "How's your liver?" is equivalent to the inquiry: Are you a bear or an angel to-day? Nine-tenths of the "pure-cussedness," the actions for divorce, the enrtain lectures, the family rows, not to speak of murders, orlmes and other calamities, are prompted by the irritating effect of tbe inactivity of tbe liver upon the brain.

If all the world hearkened to the teaching of proverbial philosophy, that most useful of assistants, the "odd" or "handy" man, would never exist. Ver­ satility is a quality never commended by the gathered wisdom of the ages. A rolling stone gathers no moss," Jack of all trades and master of none," hre but a few of the expressions which denote the interest inspired bv the uni­ versal genius who can "turn his hand to anything," but has no regular oaring of h s own. In ancient Egypt, a son was compelled to follow his father's trade, and even in the present day there is a feeling that a long persistence in one description of industry is extremely respectable and praiseworthv. Yet society would be ill off without the army of "odd" men and women who so conveniently supplement the services of more regular workers. There are mauifold descriptions of the "odd man." Sometimes he becomes a figure in a family, an actual servant in fact, his "oddness" consisting rather in the multiplicity of the duties he dis­ charges than in the transitory nature of his services. 'Ihe "handy joung man," so frequently advertised for, who is ex­ pected to look after a garden, milk a cow, groom a horse, drive a pony chaise, clean knives and boots, wait at table, and comprehensively "make himself generally useful," is an "odd man" who loves change above all things, and finds refreshment in flitting from the stable to the parlor, from the garden bed to the coach box. Next in order comes the "odd man" who would never en-1 gage to remain in one place for a lengthened term. He is generally able to "turn his hand to anything. He knows a little of almost every useful art; he can do a little carpentry, a lit­ tle cooking, knows a little about horses, and can, in short, fill almost any domes­ tic situation with credit. He is usually honest, hard-working and sober, very obliging, and in all respects a most desirable retainer. He is not actually indolent, for when he does work he does good service; but he must be allowed to intersperse liis labors with intervals of idleness. Regular, steady employ­ ment is abhorrent to him, and he pre­ fers to make smaller profits by the ex­ ercise of all his talents in turn than to earn good wages by keeping to one branch of industry. Joneses like these are found in all ranks of life. Such men can never be d^flbribed as success­ ful men, and yet th^Jtre happy in their 'ashion, and have thtZr use in the world, low badly we should all fare with no reserve force of "odd men" to fall back upon.

Forty-one years ago John Smith was the driver and chief proprietor of a line of coaches running to the White Moun­ tains. Whether this was John Smith the first or one thousandth we cannot tell. It was said that he had but one eye, and that he was keen and on the main chance. On his down trip on a time a Boston gentleman took a seat by John's side, and, being of an inquisi­ tive turn of mind, he asked numerous questions concerning different moun­ tains and views, till at length John's patience was exhausted, and, in answer to one question, he tartly answered: "Stranger, if you will attend to your business, I will to mine." As might be readily imagined, there was a very quiet time after that. After a drive of a few miles John drove up to a country store and postotfice, where the mail bag was thrown off. While the mail was being changed Mr. Smith swapped horses with a man who came for that purpose, and the new horse was "hitched in," and the driver was so in­ tent on the trade, and so desirous of trying the metal of his new horse, that ho started off without taking the mail bag. After a drive of some ten miles he drew up at another office, and, On reaching for the bag and not finding it, he said:' "By thunder, I left the bag at the Other office." "Yes," said the Bos­ ton man, "1 observed that you did." aWhv in blazes didn't you tell me?" "Because you said you would attend to your own business, and I thought I would let you."--Salem (Mass.)
