He was not troubled that way himself, and he could not endure to have men of the stamp ia hit counsel# -w- Andpche Junot was a QurgnflJ^a^ 1» Srth, bornjjp 177I^and in his youth, after* jfreJaiStory s. loolmg, he studied law, but never {WacRced. iien he was twenty-one years of age he enlisted in the army as a volunteer it was in the height of the. revolution, a few months previous to the execution of the king, Louis XVI. In September, 1793, when Paris had become comparatively quiet under the rule of the Constituent Assembly, Napoleon Bonaparte, then scarcely known beyond the old convention, and his own section of the army, was sent to wrest Toulon from the English and Spanish, and among the men under his command was younll J unot. Diving the, s|ege that followed Napo|eon im4 occasion, one day, to send a dispatch to a d>Stan^ point. He was in the saddle, halted before the company to which Junot belonged, and, running his eyes along the line, he asked if there was one of them who could write. Our hero raised his cap and bowed, upon which he was called out and conducted to the right of the line, where the musiciana WMe, and here a large drum was set on end, paper, pen and ink furnished, and the youthful soldier was directed to write. He took the pen, and dashei off the dispatch in a clear, round, handsome hand, and was just beginning to write the closing signature when a cannon ball-a 42-lb. round shot-tore up the earth close at his left foot, covering himself and the I drum-head with dirt. Without so much as the quiver of a finger-without a perceptible hesitation —the writer gave the paper a flirt to throw off the gravel, and then finished the message, laughingly saying as he did so That dirt is rather too coarse for blotting sand, but it has done mrrlamage." And he folded the missive and directed it, aftet which he handed it up to his commander, who had been all the while narrowly watching him. Young man," said Napoleon, bluntly, you are cool-headed and brave. What can I do for you ? I know of nothing, General, unless you can cause these worsted epaulettes to be taken from my shoulders, and a pair of silver ones put on in their place. Very well," answered the commander, with a pleasant nod. You can ride ? Anything that can be ridden by man, I think." Then find a horse, and carry this message to its destination. My orderly will furnish you. Bear the message and then report to nje." On the following day Junot was made a lieu- tenant and he was a captain at the end of a month, having, on account of his daring courage, won the nohriquet of The Tempest." In the cam- paign of 1797 he was promoted to the rank of colonel; and in Egypt he was made a brigadier- general. After this he became governor of Paris, then lieutenant-general, then marshal, and in the end he was elevated to the high and imposing rank of Duke of Ahrantes.
ABSENT-MINDED MEN.
ABSENT-MINDED MEN. An article on this subject, refers to an episode of Lessing, who "suffered himself to be turned from his own door by a servant not recognising him and deyning that he was at home, with a Very well, no matter I'll call another time. Yet it is not without reason that, in spite of his peculiarity, the title of The Absent Man fell par excellence on the Rev. George Harvest. This worthy individual, we are credibly informed, was engaged to marry the daughter of Compton, Bishop of London. The day was named, aad the bride in readiness for the important ceremony. But the g.oom came not; fishing, he fished on till the canon ical hour had slipped by-slipped by as far as he and his intended were concerned for ever. It is no more surprising that her indignation was such that she broke off the match with the man who could thus heartlessly for- got her on her wedding morn than that that same man in after years was so treated for the same reason by a second and equally offended bride." The case insensibly calls to mind that cited by Lord Campbell in his Lives of the Chancellors," fortunately for the ladies one of con- siderable rarity. There the offender was Serjeant Hill—supposed to be the greatest black-letter lawyer since Maynard's time, and as much cele- brated for his eccentricity as hii learning." It is stated of him that on his wedding-night, going to his chambers in the Temple, he continued there "reading cases till next morning." He Thought of the year books and forgot his bride." And this case is analogous to that of Edison, who on his wedding-night and for the following night or two failed to remember that he had a wife and is in its eccentricity to be compared to an incident given in the Publisher's Circular for the 1st ult. Citing Truth on this subject, it adds: Pictured in an old engraving in our possession, entitled C Mental Abstraction,' there is a reader, sitting by the fire with his breakfast waiting for him, who is so engrossed in his book that he is calmly boiling his watch and holding the egg in his hand to count the minutes necessary for the due settlement of the yolk. An Irish manager, playing the Character of King Henry in Richard III., after delivering himself of the speech com- mencing- Oh thou, whose unrelenting thoughts Not all the hideous terrors of thy guilt can shake, Whose conscience with thy body ever sleeps— sleep on remained, as usual, for some time in silence. Then, seized with one of his not infrequent fits of absence he availed himself of the favourable opportunity afforded him of counting the house. In another minute he uttered, with evident joy: Sixteen pounds two in the boxes three pounds ten in the pit; gallery, seventeen,thirteenal"

CURIOU. -A Royal traveller from the "far south visited the other; day the celebrated Ursula Church at Cologne. Entering the golden cham- ber," where the relics are kept, the Prince, after a scornful inspection, turned to his suite, saying, Curious things, these to which the attendant sacristan promptly replied, Yes, yes, curious things there are some curious fellows, too, and it strikes me that you are one of them." A LITTLE four-year-old remarked to her mamma on going to bed, "I am not afraid of the dark." No, of course you are not," replied her mamma, for it can't hurt you." But, mamma, I was a little afraid once when I went into the pantry in the dark to get a cookey." "What were you afraid of?" asked her mamma. I was afraid I couldn't find the cookeys." A SYMPATHETIC LJTTER. -Some of Hugh Miller's letters of condolence are original and sympathetic. We give an extract from one I shall not urge you with the common topics of consolation I know the heart Mill not listen even when the judgment approves. Grief is a strange thing it ia both deaf and blind. Where could it be more perfectly pure from every mixture of evil and folly than in the bread of our Saviour ? And -yet ever^ in Him we see it finding vent in a flood ef tears, when He must have known that he whom He mourned as dead was to step out before Him a, living numl May I not remind you that He Who Sorrowed then can sympathise in our sorrow now t" TUT, TUT.-We, -are requested, in oonse of injurious rumours, to state that the omnipus, the oOnductor of which was fined the other taT for blewin* horn in the City, was net a Totting ear
