Th«* I Yulian-French war originated In

dow , lie Id council ou tho subject, and ro-
Kilr. d that it would be a wiae thing to
sit lli. Catholic Majesty, their friend
lamia Napoleon, at tho throat of William.
They thought William would then bare
occupation enough without bothering
hiaiiwiU about the holy brotherhooil. Thia
e-tts done through Her Imperial Majesty,
Empmaa Eugenie, the prettiest woman
with the aoivt temper ami least brain of
all Europe. She convinced her absurd
hi.shumJ that the only way to save tbo
vmjiire and secure Uui dynasty mis to
maie war on Pniaai*. So one bright day
Nspolcor. the small marched his armies
towiuds the Qeruutn frontier.
The world, believing Prutwia unpre
pared, thought the vigorous little men in
nil brcochea would march unmolested di
rect to Berlin. The holy fathers of Metr,
wbera tiny bud one of the largest inati-
t ution, in France, iearnod, greatly to
their disgust and astonishment, that thia
could nut l>e, when they came to look at
the hundred and twenty thousand Na]
ham brought with him to that town

iliai inline for which it waa onre so famous
N'npo-
ThU
ajipi’ared. Officers and men min-
glial together on a footing of equality in
•irinking-ahops and houaea of ill-fame,
while on every side went heard inutter-
iugsof diaeontent, tinctunnl by ridicule
of the Kinperor and the moat atrocious
republican sentiments. There waa a poor
supply of iinminnition and a worse pro-
vision for supjmrt. Military agents ran
from shop to shop in Mets, purchasing on
promises to pay. in tho shape of military
orders, all that the dealers hud to aell.
The Jesuit futhera had long known that
the Imperial Government waa bankrupt,
but for the first time they ware taught
that the rot had reached tho army. Tho
easperaliug delay that occurred at Metx
originated in a frantic endeavor to pre
pare and provision an army that onght
to havo been in tho field. To keep up ap-
|H>aranrca and preserve, if possible, the
remnant of popularity left tho empire,
that absurd move was made on Saar-
bruek, where the unfledged prince had
his baptism of fire. Various storied are
told on the spot concerning this baptism,
but one must remember that they come
from tho enemy, not possessed of much
love or admiration for the “Little Lu-hi,”
ns he is called in derision. The stone is
i-liown upon which ho placed that port of
hie little imperial person where tho legs
end and the body begins immediately
uft.r ilia baptism, and enthusiastic En
glish ami admiring Americana imvo nearly
chipped it away in their lively desire to
pro., rvo mementoes of so grove an event.
After the so-called battle and baptism
ilia imperial Majesty called tho general in
command to tho side of hia carriage, and
said in a loud voice i
“General, your heroio conduct and that
ct your gallant soldiers content me. Go
on as you have begun; carry the eaglo of
the cm pint ever to victory: and in return
for yonr m rrievs today I now create you
marshal of the empire, with the title of
Duke of Slmarbruek.”
The enthusiastic little General throw
iiimsolf on his knees, and boating his
manly breast with tho fervorof «n excited
Frenchman, cried t
"And I, sin?, swear on the honor of a
Christian and a soldier to bo the first to
enter Berlin."
Poor little man. he disappeared next
day from human gase, but the sweet sccno
ho assisted to make enjoyable remains in
history as the last bit of epvra bcujr
called tho empire, that for twenty years
lied entertained humanity and ruinod
Fi-anoa.
Ilia Imperial Majesty scon found that
instead of invading he was invaded, and
the noise and confusion that accompanied
lfis unhappy defeats so affected liis impe
rial health that ho was forced to retire
from the position of commander-in-chief
of the armies in the field, and to this end
lie called together the leading oSccrs of
his army to select by hallothis successor.
The choice fell upon Baaainebj an unan
imous vote. The littio Emperor, patting
Mie newly-selected commander upon the
shoulder. Sskod him his plan of opera
tion, Ihuaine replied prompty, “to with
draw from before Meta, form a junction
with the other army corps of the empire,
so as to cover Paris, and, while acting on-
ticily on the defiuiive, not only ojipose
{lid muisiM. hut hold Paris itself in
subjection.” And here came the argu
ment that convinced this Bonaparte: “If
the news of these defeats.” said Baxainc.
• roach Paris in the absence of the army
tho turbulent masses will drive out the
Emprc-i and put an eud, save, to your
dynasty."
Baxainc further suggested that the
Emporor should accompany the army in
JU retrial, each day selecting the lieo.1-
qutrkc - in ajranoa, in some boons on
tho line of man*. Consenting to this,
the ro . • ofsMsdame Enoch.inLong-
ville, some two miles from Mets, was se
lected for thst night, and to this humble
abode Louii Napoleon betook himself in
a very quiet manner, Iravi::; the lately
bant&ed youth, “Little Lu-lu,“ with Ba-
aatne.

and from Prussians he very properly
feared. '
The mystery of tost exploded shell has
never been and probably never will be
solved. It was tho one shell sent into
IxmgviBe that day. It came so well di
rected and did its work so near its intent
that ono remains in doubt whether it was
manufactured in Berlin or Paris, and
whether we havo to compliment the Prus
sian artillery or the sagacity of certain
French conspirators who saw that a mili
tary protectorate of a prince lately bap
tised by fire would be more efficient than
that of a wrong-bowled imbecile whose
stubborn stupidity had so nearly rained
France.

the gardener.
We visited that also. It is No. 6 on
the one street of Gravelotte. and we can
testify to the fact that it is humble
enough. The rooms are all of low ceil
ings, stone floors, with that lack of venti
lation that distinguishes the home of an
and European laborer. The Emperor,
heipod down from his hard seat in the
voituro, limped into tho principal apart
ment on the arm of tbo gardener, and
I then sank into an old arm chair covered
with a red cotton stuff that Ls yet shown
to tho visitor. He sat for six hours with,
out moving, and gaxed with .those dead,
fishy eyes of his as if stunned and daxed
by the terrible event. One could almost
pity this blood-stained, perjured actor of
the coup d’etat who hod not sense enough
to bo even a charlatan. Twenty years of
empire had passed ir* which he bad play
ed so strange a part. He saw himself lift
ed from a ridiculous obscurity to the first
throne in Euroue, to reign a despot over
the greatest nation the world ever know.
He saw himself made the instrument to
humble Russia, and received
reward the gracious acquaintance
of a queen whose condescension
a patent of nobility. He
again the armies of France, under his
command, roll bock the Austrian usurp
ers and restore the nationality of the
Italian people. Ho saw himself feared
and oven respected, the acknowledged
head of the first war power and foremost
nation of the world. And now he sat,
deserted and alone, in this bumble abode,
with deadliest blows fslling thick and
fast, and with treachery an one side and
a enemies on tho other,

, as in a dream
greatness disappeared. Of all the co-
conspirators, called friends, who had
helped him to power in the years gone by
not ono remained They were dead
recognising his failing fortunes, had de
serted him. They had given him brain
and courage. The keen, cool man of tho
world. Do Monioy, his illegitimate half
brother, tho audacious advnnturer. Mar
shal St. Arnaud; that youthful states
man. Thouvencl, whose mind was tho ge
nius that made intuition learning, and
whose state papers confounded the oldest
diplomatists of Europe, were dead; and
tho rest, low villions generally, who had
■tided in destroying the republic and who
inaugurated assassination with tho em
pire, hiul all slunk away from tho doomed
man. who could well say with Macbeth:
aw as*.ii it nun sue w iv mm yrimw km ;
Amt that which *!xmld amwnpuny oM aw.
An honor, love, obedience, troop* of friends,
J must not look to have.’*
For six hours he sat in silence, and at
the end of that time his Imperial Majesty
smellod something. Lifting his majestic
nose, ho said to tho wife of the gardener:
*‘Madame, do you notcook something'P* r
’ ibV) tone onion soup for mj
husband.”
•‘Can you not giro me a little ?”
•‘Most willingly, sire.”
And in an iron pan, with an iron spoon,
tho fallen Emperor found a meal that he
ate heartily, and then said:
•‘Madame, that is tho best dinner I
ever tasted.”
That night tho Prinoe imperial, so
lately baptized, joined his unhappy fath-
or, and the two retired, and it is sup
posed slept, for nothing was heard until
nearly daylight, when an officer awakened
the Emperor with a message from Ba-
zaine, that read, “Hasten, sire, to join
MacMahon; yon have not ten minutes to
lose.”
One© more pulling the cloak about him,
ho mounted, with his supposed son, tho
old carriage, and fled into the night that
proved his night indeed. Wo hear of him

minutes before the Prussians had been
searching the place, looking for tho fugi
tive empire, or empire, that they cap
tured a few days after.
Had this man died in the roar of battle,
at the head of his brave army, a great
wrong would have been done mankind. The
lesson his infamous career taught France
and tho world would havo been lost. He
triod to throw light upon himself and
make us doubt, in his distinguishing
traits of tho Bonaparte family, the story
of his Dutch extraction. Like all genu
ine Bonapartes the world over, his treach
ery was only equalled by his cowardice.

The Jubt-IIatxr.—If there oould be
something like a political confessional
where, ofu-r election day, repentant citi
zens might make known their crimes of
omission and commission against the suf
frage, it would be useful in discovering
the number of voters who refrained from
registering for fear of being “drawn on
tho jury.” The figures would be start
ling enough to convince any one that this
n-l.n.juislimont of the priviieges of citi-
zenshiu in order to escape its burdens is
one of (he most prevalent of our political
vices. And it sot 1 ms as firmly rooted as it
is widespread. ThedeKnquent may be the
brother of the clergyman who denounces
a fleet of political duty, or the cousin of
the editor who writes the convincing ar
ticle to the same effect, bnt sermon and
editorial seem equally ineffectuaL The
jury-bater has reached the limit cf his
reasoning powers, the jumping-off place of
argument. Liko the woman who went down
for the third time gesticulating “scis-
san," he has only one answer to make to
all remonstrance: He doesn’t want to get
on the jury. There is one tiling to be
said in extenuation of his offense. It
may bo that the contemplation of the
figure he generally cuts on a jury re
strains him, and his report to this miser
able trick is prompted not so mnch by
indifference os by self-respect.—Sat York
Tribune.
Tax cultivation of Egyption coin has
been tried with marked success in Cali
fornia. The San Francisco Chronicle
says: “ Tho manner of planting it is sim
ilar to that employed with broomoom,
which the stalk somewhat resembles,
while the head in shape is more like that
of the sorghum or Asiatic sugar-cane.
Instead of growing straight up, as that
does, the Egyptian corn always crooks at
the head and turns down when matur
ing. Tho grains in shape and size bear
some resemblance to brocmcom seed, but
on crushing a grain it is found to be
more of the nature of Indian corn than
anything else. The seeds from which
thi> corn is grown were taken from the
wrappings of Egyptian mummies ; and
that they grew after being thus laid away
for two thousand years shows that this
variety of oeroal possesses wonderful
power of reproduction. It has been sug
gested that it might be found to advan-
tageoivdy replace barley for the use of
znalsters aud brewers.”

It is a genuine English made Manure, the only ono in the market, and manu
factured by a company having a capital of $l,-oU,000, which sells 40,000 tons anuu- Lca\o M.
ally, and has the most extensive works of the kind in Great Britain, which have
been in operation 24 years. The Langdale, therefore, has a good pedigree and is no
experiment.
It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for tho promotion
of vegetable life, and especially of cotton, than any other fertilizer offered in the
South. It is the best and safest Cotton Manure in the market.
The analysis given with tho Manuro when sold will 1x5 guaranteed. There shall
bo no mistake about the genuineness of the article, nor the good faith of the vendors.
It is the cheapest Manure offered, as it contains nothing but what is of use in
becoming plant-food, or by 1 chemical action on the soil, producing the same. The
test of cheapness is not the price, but the actual worth of the article purchased.
Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valua^L> chemi
cals, which can alone give woith to a fertilizer, and bring satisfactory results. The
Langdale is as low in price as is consistent witli the use of the best ingredients, and
a fair commercial profit on its cost.
Tho employment of powerful machinery in mixing and pulverizing tho ingro
dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. Tho Lang
dale is unequalled in this respect, and impresses every one who sees it as a perfectly
manipulated Manure.
In its composition and preparation it is the result of careful scientific research
and experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It
will be maintained at its present high standard, and is thus what planters havo
long wanted—a thoroughly reliable and safe Manure.

At a Cost of $i 50 per Aero, Broadcast,
TtROM the results of the use of our Cotton and
. J Com Fertilizer the post three seasons, and
the experience with it last season for Wheat, we
are induced to put up for sale our mixed chemi
cals for the Fall and Winter Crops. Tho Com-
—ind is made up of tins same chemicals as our
ton and Corn Fertilizer, but in different pro-
rtion<s as winter crops will bear more stimu-
iting than those grown in summer.
The Compound Contains all the
Elements of Peruvian
Guano,
And Trill, we think, prove as rapid a forcer as the
best (cranes. The H heat Crop is such an impor
tant one to our country that we era anxious to
have our planters uso this Compound. It will be
seen that it is even cheaper than Cotton Seed, and
isofgrtat permanent improvement to the soil.
These chemical* not only last one season, but
THIRD CROP.
The chemicals are all finely pulverized and well
mixed, haring been run through a fine seive, and
will readily permeate through the mass.
If it is not convenient to get dry stable or lot
manure, you can use ashes which have been
leached, or dry muck or rich loam. Sand should
not be mixed with tho chemicals. Whatever is
used should be moderately dry. The chemicals
are put up in good tight barrels well coopered,
and three (S) barrels hold 800 pounds net weight
The price is ?25 50, delivered in the depot at Ma
con, for the 800 pounds of chemicals, cash. Sixty
day drafts will be taken as cash. Orders may be
sent to us direct, or through any of our agents.
In our Fertilizer business we have associated
with us DR. P. R. HOLT, of Fort Valley, G?t«
and parties can be supplied with his Fertili^ or
ours, as they may desire.
«« sopply a good article of aoh&|» Phos
phate of Lnne which, when composted with cotton
seed and stable manure, makes a good manure at
cost of from $10 to $15 per ton of 2,000 lbs.
