Theredied recently at Paris, a man who had a certain amount of celebrity tl,r mgh the enmpire for his neva lion to Napoleon. the First, He was called .,a 'Chaise and had been a page of the Emperor: They tell a very singular anecdote of something which happened - during. his youth. The page, though but fifteen, was shaped like the Emper or, aril his motions were very similar. On account of tnis.reserrlblance, his com- rades cabled hirci the Emperor,- wliose_ gesture :and walk he often aroused him- self by imitating. to the great pieaaur•e of his ompariior s. One day, during. Napo1en's absence, he took his clothes, 'alit three on, went to the page's chamb- er, a and gave” ttienr so perfect a repres entation that they were enraptured.. But suddenly the mock Emperor felt: some one pulling his ear sharply. He turned rotund with all toe fury of ma- jesty, and it was the Emperor himself, who told him in his . sternest =Dire to pack up and rejoin the Second Regi- ment of the line, in which he was a Second Lieutenant.—There it is, gen- tlemen,'. said he, ' that you must -imitate rue.' The page departed, and the Em t.eror laughed outrageously, and de- clared that the young fellow: imitaied hips so well that he had to feel self, as as Amlhytrion did, to make sure that he really; was himself. - The- feature of the period °,Cheek. 1 Atthe annual Meeting of the, Medi- - co-Psy ehologioal Association, held ' re- cently at York,` under the : Presidency of , Prosessor Laycock;. of Edinburgh:- Dr. Sebben .Stoke Newington, read somewhat remarkable paper on Ritua- lism with reference' to its influence on the human mind: Ile said the daily spreading influence, of -Ritualism- and its injurious effects on Society, .'called for sortie ` observations, which he felt wire they would not be out of place at this meeting: Ritualism at the pres- ent time was evidently one of the most prominent causes of insanitin the mid- dle ranks ot•life.'=-within the last two years; he had under his care several cal es o`f'rroental derangement c• and he soled by it. he haad selected: the 1pbst important for the purpose of bringing p i p�.ose raging ahefore • tl members. ---From his own ob ,. servatlor, and eo far as he had been able to a sce t - tain it appears that . the young wire more attracted by it than those of ma- ture age.

It was not his ii_teition " _ to cuter upon what would approach a philosophical discuss- son on the veli nous bearings -of . Ritua- lism, but simply to confine himself to its riorbid influence, as shown in the cases. which had been -brou ht under his *notice. From the cases he was led to make the following remarks, viz., that ritua- lism appearedso.eutirely to, engross the attention of the individual that there was little or .uo desire . to • dwell upon matters bevord the rounds of its own bearing ; the train of thought was nat- urally unaltered, laying the first stoke towards disease ; tlielength and manner of conducting the services; and the time spent in pubiicvrnd'private player (oc- cupying, in some case:; necally the whole day,), combined with the most rigid ?rules. for fasting, could scarcely fail to destroy the strongest constitution both physically and•mentally ; and that it was the younger of -society, their in- tellects being the mast sensitive to irn- Dressions, who : became its victims. Where` the] e was all bernclitary texden- cy to insanity, or "where- mental de- ficiency ' existed, the - individ»al was sure to fall a .prey. He asked whether it Ives net possible for -some steps to be taken to prevent the inereasing -evil of ritui_.lism, and. to salve a. others from its sad. Yonsegnences ? Improvement in Grain.

On this principle, in farm stock, we have the short=horn, the blood :hors .b and nd t he different- -breeds c ce is of sheep, swine, poultry, aksc.
