Napoleon arrived at St. Helena October
15, 1815, in the ship Northumberland, com
manded ny Sir George Cockbnrn, and was
attended by General and Mme. Bertrand,
General and Mme. Montholon, Count Las
Cases,, General Gougaud and suite. The
next day he went ashore, and stopped over
night in Jamestown, and on the following
day the Emperor, in company with Admi
ral Cockburn and Count Bertrand, visited
Longwood,.the place which had been se
lected for his future residence, the house
intended for him being then occupied by
the Lieutenant-Governor of the Island. The
Emperor requested permission to stop in a
building called the “Briars,” which request,
was granted, and he remained there a little
over two months. From the “Briars” he
was removed to Lougwood and there occu
pied what is known as the “Old House.”
In 1819 the British Government- commen
ced the erection of a large, commodious
residence for his reception, but before it
was finished Napoleon I. was no more. On
the oth of May, 1821, the conqueror of a
hundred battles, creator of krngs and princes,
the legislator and hero of the age, died at
Longwood, aged fifty-two years. The dis
ease which caused his death is alleged by
some to have been hereditary ulceration of
the stomach, and by-others, gastro-hepatitis.
On the 8th of May he was buried iu Saue
Valley, Longwood. The Governor, Admi
ral and staff, all the garrison and about one-
half the population of the Island attended
the funeral. The pail-bearers were Count
Bertrand and Montholon, Mershand (the
faithful valet of the Emperor), and young
Napoleon Bertrand. The household of the
late Emperor sailed for England May 21st,
1821, on the storeship Camel. On the 8th
of October, 1840, Prince de Joinville and
suite, including General Bertrand, Montho
lon. Baron Las Casas, former companion of
Napoleon’s exile, arrived at St. Helena in
the frigate La Belle Poule, accompanied by
the corvette, Favorite, for the purpose of
conveying the remains of the Emperor to
Frauce; and on the 15th of October, at
midnight, just twenty-five years from the
day he lauded, the exhumation took place,
the coffin was lifted, and conveyed to a
tent, ‘where it was opened and the remains
fully identified, being but a little changed
in appearance from what some of the
mourners had gazed upon nearly twenty
years before. The coffin was then closed,
and the remains were deposited, with fune
ral honoas, in the La Belle Poule, which
sailed for France on the 18th of October.
Upon their arrival in Paris, the mortal re
mains of the First Napoleon were deposited
under the dome of the Invalides, where
they still remain. From all accounts, his
life here was most dreary. Among the ar
chives of ihe island are the original papers
that were to have been sent lo France, giv
ing plans of easy lauding places and the
manner in which be was to have been res
cued; but through the inquisitiveness of
his valet’s parents, the papers fell into the
hands of the Governor, Sir Hudson Lowe.
After that, the strict surveillance and in
dignities that were heaped upon him broke
the spirit and heart of the man that had
defied the world. The original paper from
the King of England, ordering that Napo
leon should be addressed as General and j
not Emperoj, is still here. By ordinance
of Sir Edward Drummond Hay, Governor
of St. Helena, dated March 18, 1858. rati
fied and confirmed by order of the Queen,
May T, 1858, the lands iu the Itiand of St.
He’ena forming the site of the tomb of the
Emperor Napoleon, also the lands forming
the site of the tenement of Lougwood and
its appurtenances, formerly the residence
of Napoleon, was vested in his Majesty the
late Napoleon III. and his heirs forever, as
absolute owners thereof in fee simple. In
1859 the French Government sent an Offi
cer of the Legion of Honor to St. Helena
to look after and take care of the house and
grounds. The present officer, Major Mare-
chal, who is an Officer of the Legion of
Honor, also, is a most obliging anu courte
ous gentleman; he has very little to do,
for all that he does not like living so far
away from Paris, and proposes to leave for
France soon on a leave of absence for one
year. There are a good many reminis
cences of Napoleon’s exile that neither re

would enable them to procure the many de
sirable articles which the juvenile mechanics
and artists of the city could make for them.
The question will naturally be asked,
“How can the youth of the cities and the
country be induced to begin productive
work ?” The beginning is the chief diffi
culty, and this should be undertaken by or
ganization. We have many associations of
minors, but they do not sufficiently inculcate
the idea that skill in useful arts is honorable,
and entitles the possessor to the respect of
all worthy people. Men who are prominent
in the community should give countenance
to all who can be induced to associate for
the purpose of elevating themselves in the
social scale by productive work; and a sys
tem of degrees, orders and decorations, to
indicate the acquirements of every one,
should be prepared and conferred upon those
entitled to them. More decorous conduct,
as well as business improvements, would re
sult from the establishment of such an in

persons is made by preparing them. It may
be said that when wages are small most
people cannot afford to buy anything beyond
what subsistence and ordinary comforts re
quire ; but when there was the most com
plaint of a lack of employment, a Fourth of
July did not pass without a large business
being done in fireworks and crackers.
“Where there is a will there is a way,” and
if new things of a desirable character
be introduced they will find purchasers.
It is, therefore, the true policy of a com
munity to invent or prepare new artioles,
which will gratify some persons, in order
that they may be induced to buy them. A
portion of the time of boys and girls, and of
many adults, is not employed, and experience
has shown that when they have been so in
structed as to acquire skill in some art, they
will willingly work when there is a prospect
of pay. An important part of their home
training should be to lead them to exercise
their powers in efforts to make something
which will have value, and to do this they
should be provided with some inexpensive
instruments and materials with which they
may begin work. When they can fashion
a toy which will amuse a child, their work
begins to have value, and in this branch of
industry there is a scope for a large amount
of work adapted to learners. In every de
partment of labor the ability to draw is of
great value, and children should be supplied
with the things needed at an early age.
The use of water colors affords much inno
cent amusement, and whenever a germ of
talent for drawing or coloring appears, it
should be developed. The instruments for
mechanical drawing should also be provided,
and the habit of observing and delineating
the forms of things should be encouraged.
To induce families to procure the things de
sired for the beginning of manual work,
would considerably increase some kinds of
business, and wherever sufficiently skill
may be developed to produce new designs
and things of ornament, the resources of
learners would increase, and their ability to
purchase better instruments, machinery,
and apparatus would be augmented. In a
large majority of dwellings there is a want
of many things which w T ould promote the
comfort and convenience of families; and,
as intelligence and taste are diffused, the
demand for books, pictures, musical instru
ments, ornamental articles of furniture and
things needed for recreation is increased.
In the rural districts and in suburban parts
of large cities, much more productive work
for young persons is practicable than can be
done in the small houses in which many of
the people of the city live. With a little
direction, boys and girls can make a little
ground produce things of value which

for it.*’
And Mr Throckmorton, pausing with his
hand on the door said he would get it,
and then sighed and opened the door.
Just then his oldest son shouted from the
sitting room:—
“Father! the man w as up here twice yes
terday for the money for my new boat,
and I just gave him a note to you, and
he’ll call at the office to day for his money,
and will give you a pair of patent oar
locks and a dip net. Bring them np with
you when you come to dinner.”
Mr. Throckmorton kind of stifled a groan
like, and saying he would attend to it,
went out. As he passed down the porch
step his second daughter leaned out of the
front window' and cried;—
“Oh, pa; do stop at Parson’s as you
come to dinner, and tell them to send a
man to lay the new hall carpet when they
send it up, and you get ten pounds of cot
ton batting and bring it up with you, for
we wau’t it right away and can’t wait.”
The parent paused with his hand on the
gate latch, and with a visable effort prom-
ised to remember and bring up the cotton l®st through a handful of glow
batting, aid opened the gate. But the j l )er ■
voice of his younger son from the side !
