CURRENT TOPICS.
Napoleon’s Willow.
Ex-President Johnson, during his life,
received a twig taken from the willow
which bends over the grave of Napoleon
Bonaparte, on St. Helena, which he
planted in the garden of his late residence,
and which has now grown to a stately tree.
A twig from this tree will be planted over
the grave of Mr. Johnson, on Johnson’s
Hill.
A quarter of a century ago one frequent
ly heard a grand song which had been
written with Napoleon and that St. Helena
willow as the text. Like hundreds of
others, with a hundred times more merit,
it has been nearly forgotten. We will
quote some of the verses from memory:
On the lone barren Isle, where the loud-roar
ing billow
Assails the stern rock and the fierce tempests
rave,
The hero lies still, and the dew-dropping
willow,
Like fond weeping mourners, leans over his
grave.
Though tempests may rave.
And the hoarse cannon rattle.
He heeds not, he hears not,
He’s free from all pain.
He sleeps his last sleep,
He has fought his last battle.
No sound can awake him
To glory again. I
Oh, shade of the mighty—where now are thy
legions,
That rushed but to conquer when thou led’st
them on ?
Alas! they ha\e perished in far distant
regions.
And all save the fame of their triumph is
gone.
Though tempests may rave, etc,
Yet, spirit immortal, the tomb cannot bind
thee,
Hut. like thine own eagle that scared to the
sun.
Thy soul springs from bondage, and thus
leaves behind thee
A name which, before thee, no mortal had
won.
Though tempests may rave, etc.
Interior of a Chinese House —Curiosi-
ties 1,100 Years Before Christ.
A tourist in China gives the following
interesting aoount of a visit he paid to one
of the most ancient and wealthy famJies
in Wel-hyon. “Chin Ghiai See” is the name
on his visiting card :
“ His house is remarkable—the first I
have seen in hiua. The reception room is
furnished with ancient arm chairs at least
three feet wide in the seat, like thrones.
The place of honor had a beautiful draw
ing of a bamboo grove in the wall. We
never saw such a thing in China. Before it
a large porcelain plate on a stand 7C()
years old. <>n one side is a bronze vase of
the ‘Chen’ dynasty, or 600 years before
Christ The old man introduced his grand
son, a charming boy; and on our request
to see some old curiosities, he went to his
room and brought a sacrificial bronze cup
on three legs, which belonged to a noble
family 1,100 years before Christ, just the as
one sees printed m the books of the an
cient Chinese classics.
“It was more curious, and it seemed to
say, ‘ 1 show you a thing which was• used
by my ancestors in their worship nearly
3,i)00 years ago.’ In fact, this was con
temporary with Solomon’s Temple, and
was made before Home was built. He only
showed us that, as if all tne rest was too
modern for our admiration. In this grand
room, where he received us, were his
library of books, in beautifu’ cedar cases,
and his family banners of silk, with gold
letters on them, which are borne before the
coffins at their interments. I also sa .v
another fine house—‘Yang’—and I am
much pleased with my visit here.”
The Gratitude of an Elephant.
A letter from India to a London paper
tells a strange story about an elephant
that had a disease in his eyes. For three
days he had been completely blind. His
owner, an engineer officer, asked the doc
tor if he could do anything to relieve the
poor animal. The doctor said lie would
try the nitrate of silver, which was a rem
edy commonly applied to a similar dis
ease in the human eye. The large animal
was ordered to lie down, and at first, on
the application of the remedy, raised a
most extraordinary roar, at the acute
pain which it occasioned. The effect, how
ever, was wonderful. The eye was in a
manner restored, and the animal could
partially see. The next day when he was
brought and heard the doctor’s voice he
lay down of himself, placed his enormous
head on one side, curled up his trunk, drew
liis breath just like a man about to endure
an operation, gave a sigh of relief when it
was over, and then by trunk and gesture
evidently wished to express his gratitude.
The French and the German Soldiers
The German soldier is almost a machine;
liis obedience is silent; his discipline is pas
sive; he has no hesitations; he possesses
subordination as a natural gift. The
Frenchman, on the contrary, has opinions
and ideas of his own which no discipline
can entirely drive out; of course he is obe
dient, because he would be shot if he were
not so; but his obedience is not inert; it is
an act of reason, and is accompanied with
a quantity of mental reservations and con
siderations which; never enter into a Ger
man head. The result is that he is not sus
eiptiolo of being treated like a bundle,
which stops where it is put until it is
moved again, and that therein lies a serious
disadvantage in a movement like a mobi
lization, where the first duty of each soldier
is to fall in silently, and stir no more of his
own accord—[Blackwood.

What an Old Man Thinks of the Con
stitutionalist.
Stellayille, Jefferson Cos.. Ga., I
October 6th, 1875. (
Editor Constitutionalist:
Dear Sir—l am compelled to perform a
very unpleasant duty to-day to my sorrow.
I am old and infirm, and so noor can’t take
and pay for my old favorite paper, the
Constitutionalist, which I have taken
and paid for and read with the greatest
pleasure twenty-live years. Please stop it
on that account. I part with it like an old
friend who has died. Farewell.
Yours respectfully,
J. R. Way.

Tlie Age of Poets—They Die Young.
Says a writer: Those who died early
were Burns, Byron, Shelley, Keats and
Chatter ton. To the list of those who died
before 50 add Spencer, Thompson, Collins
and Goldsmith. Shakespeare managed
to go just bevond his 50th year, and Pope
and Gray got half way from 50 to 60 ; but
an aged poet is an exception. Milton
livtd to a respectable age, but long refrain
ed from indulgence in this dangerous prac
tice in favor of the pursuit of political life.
He did not long survive the recurrence to
his earlier pursuits. Cowper lived to near
70. but it drove him mad. Dryden roacli
ed 70; Wordsworth, by dint of country
life, survived all contemporaries, and at
tained the age of 80.
Rochester Chronicle: It was lucky
for Ralston that he died. Had he lived
lie might have been roughly handled,
perhaps lynched ; whereas, being dead,
every Californian loves him and is
ready to fight for his memory.
Mr. Mann murdered his own son in
Montreal, the othe-: day. Another case
