SAYINGS OF NAPOLEON.
Power Is "never ridiculous. War Is a singular art. 1 assure you that I have fought sixty battles, and learned nothing but what 1 knew wheu I fought the first. I/ove of country is the first virtue of civilised roan. High tragedy Is tbe school of great men. Cleverness Is not wanted ln war. What is wanted Is accuracy, character, and simplicity. Religion Is an important affair In the pulillc institution for the education of young ladles. Let them he brought up ta believe and not to reason. When a King is said to be a kind man tbe reign Is a failure.
