YOUNG NAPOLEON.-A letter from


person of rank at Vienna, gives the fol-


lowing particulars relative to the Ex. King


of Rome, who will be fourteen years OF age


on the goth of next month. 1t is true, as has


been said, that his education is neglected, or
merely such as would fit him for the cclc-


siastc state. On the contrary, 1t is on
much more liberal plan, and more likely TO
render him a military character. Besides
reading books of general instruction, great
care is taken to perfect him N all manly
and robust exercises Ills countenance,
though handsomer than that of his father,
has stilfthat character OF expression. his
constitution is strong, and his health unln-
terruptcd; he possesses, for his age, rare
degree of sagacity. The EMPEROR sees
him frequently, and seems to take much |
delight in him; he indulges him in all his
boyish fantasies. He has already, though
so young, read the greater number of the
memoirs relative to his father, but through
fineness of taste, extraordinary at his age,
he never mentions the name of his father.
Lately the Emperor mac him present OF
a little Horse, which happened to resemble
a fayolite Arabian horse of NAPOLEON, cal
led lie Ytsr. The Emperor asked him
what name he should give to his horse" 81 wish

most severe calamity, nearly the whole OF
lie old village having been destroyed by fire,
which rendered nine families houseless. and
,omc Of them quito destitute. Owing to the
llgh wind which then prevailed, the rapidity
If the conhagraton was such, that very


mall part Of the furniture and ather prop
,rty could be saved. Two of The buildings
destroyed were small stores, and all the
,oods in them were consumed.


Thus has this little, ancient village, which
lad begun to assume a measure of its former


been almost reduced, in the space
f about an hour, to a heap of ruins. This
hell irfo |
horises an appeal to the benevolent feel
,gs of the community; and it cannot be doubt
d, will induce a generous contribution for
ne relief (at least Of the most dcstltute) of
ne sufferers. Il
