Avyecpore or Ti? Faexcu Emprror.—There is an interesting aneedote told of the present Emperor of the French daring his boyhood :-—

** Upon one occasion, while Lortense was. residing at Constance, young Louis Nopoleon was forbidden te go beyond the enclosnre of the gurden. He violated this command, however ; and on a cold, snowy day, strayed off, and eould not be found. Seareh wae made for him, and at last he was discovered coming in at the rear of the premises without hat, coat, or ehoes. He endeavored to reach his chamber unobserved, but wae caught by. his tutor, and taken to his mother, At first he refused ty account for his singular ap- pearance, but at last told the Queen that he had seen a poor family pass by the gate of the chateau. One of the children had no hat, another lacked a coat, and a third wanted shoes. He had deprived himself of these articles of clothing to give to the children, and had walked home through the soow without them.
