In regard to duty' let me, in conclusion of fyia ha'sty letter, inform you that nearly a hundred years atro there was a day of remarkable gloom and darkness- sun Known as tne darj ciay-r-a day when me ugntor tne sun was slowly extinguish pa, as it by an eclipse. Ihe legislature o Connecticut was in session, and as its members saw the unexpected and unac countable darkness coming on, they shared in the general awe and terror. It was supposed by many that the last day tne a ay oi judgment had come. " Some one, in -tho consternation of the hour moved an adjournment. Then there arose an old Puritan legislator. Davenport of Stamford, and said, that if the last day had come, he desired to be found at his placo doing his duty, and therefore moved that candles be brought in so that the house could proceed with its duty. There was quietness in that man's mind, 1 the quietness pf heavenly wisdom and infie rblo willingness to obey present duty.- vmjf inen. is tne suDiimest word in our language. Do your duty in all things like the did ' puritan'.

The yotwg Prince ITapoleon Eugene Louis Jean Joseph, son of Napoleon and Eugene, and f prospectit Emperor of France, was born on the 15th of Match, 1850, and is now drawing towards the completion of his eleventh year, While still in arms ho was placed on the master roll of thelmperiaL Guards, as a private in the regiment; for as.it was intended that he should receive military education, and afterward assume a mililaij command, it was designed as ft compliment to the army that he should, at least nominally, go through all the grada tions of the service. When old enough to begin to learn the military exercises, , he waf put through ' them . with other." youths of his own age, and in this'way'he was taught the bayonet and other drill before he was eight years old. By this time too, he had been made a non-commissioned officer of his regiment and he is now pass ing, s;ep by step,' through the various grades' toward thc rank of colonel. Bat while special atterHioa9bas been given to his militiry training) his'education as a citizen has not been neglected :-r Besides the ordinary rudiment of Instruction, he has recieved lesions in two or three hand icrafts, the last of which was the' setting up of types in the Imperial printing ofiicd of Paris. The object of this may have been simply to extend his sphere of know IV edge and enlarge his views in after life: but the; abilty to earn a living, like an or dinary individual, has before now proved a valuable accomplishment for even the. heir ib a ' throne. In' the event 'Ot the Emperor Napoloan III. dying' before thev Prince. Imperial becomes of age, it isar- , ranged that thegoyernmentof the country shall be carried on for a time by a Regency under the Empress, assisted by Prince Xap'oleon, cousin of the Emperor. - - Protection to Kewnnaper I'nblUh- era. .
