When it is burned down some what, so tha| there is a good bed of coals, add more wood, and let it be heavier, witfi a few small sticks. Get this in a full blaze, and let it burn for a few minutes. By this time your room is pretty well ventilated; for a stove with a good draft is the best of ventilators. Your room is not yet warm. This is in consequence of the ventilation going on. Not only that, the air which is drawn up by the stove is cold, and cools the stove, thus preventing it from heating with hot air. Thus there is a current, not only in the room but inthestove, whicii “draws up the heat,-’ as it is said, and truly. This, in a great measure, accounts for the tardi ness of warming a room in the morning. The ventiliation is not good, especially for an invalid. But close up the stove and in a short time this will he remedied. There is heat enough now to retain fire. There will be the ra diation of the eoal9 and a thin diffused flame, while, most of all, the air in the stove will be, not as is was before, cool, as it rushes through, but hot. heating the stove, pipe and all, till up to the damper. The stove now throws the heat into the room rapidly without creating a current. That is the secret of the thing—no current and a hot stove. u c >h il tcu iu uiui v ularly by a stove-pipe in the front apart ment" of our buildings, which we found wanned a greater space sooner than the stove in the room we occupied. At first one at that) sooner than both a stove and a pipe, war beyond our comprehension. By careful noting we found that the pipe in the other room threw out the heat without getting up a current—without drawing ofl the warm air in immediate .Co 'act with it and fetching in, from without, thu cold air to fill the vacant. It was simply a process of heating. In the other room it was ven tilation. A good bed of coals, with a few large dry sticks partly burned, and the stove shut tight, is the best way ot heating a room. It is also lasting; besides, it is a saving of wood. In order to heat a room quickly with a stove—say in the morning— the draft, or front part of the stove, should be outside of the room. But still the stove w ould not be so hot as when filled with confined hot air, in addition to the radiat ing heat. The best way is to close your stove on going to bed with a large (dry) stick in it, laid on a bed of live coals. It your stove is air-tight,—with just sufli cient drught to take oft' the smoke,—you will have a bed of coals in the morning, and a warm stove. Now fill with wood small sticks below, large on top. Let it blaze a few minutes, then close the draught. In a few minutes more your room will begin to feel comfortable, though there seems to be a dead stove. For ventilation, let it burn longer than be fore the damper is turned, with less wood. The ventilation and warming may thus be done at any time by a turn of the damper. Another advantage is, to have the fire in one end of the stove, toward the place where you most sire, thus throwing the heat upon you. Each housekeeper should have a pan of chips or small wood to feed the fire when needed. Distribute a lew small sticks among the pile, or, better, throw a handful of chips upon it. This will start up the fire at once. But few know the advantage of season ed wood—fewer still of thoroughly sea soned wood. It would pay to make a kiln-dry to dry your wood. If you do not believe this, try a piece of wood that has long been near a stove, or in some other hot place for a long time. It will at once take fire, and burn like inflammable gas. There’s a hot white light that will do the business at once. Above all things avoid green wood. Burn it not; suffer; throw it out; go from home, rather than be pes tered. But do a good deal to get dry wood. Do more to get hickory but most of all, exert yourselt to get thoroughly dried, not “seasoned," wood. AY hat should be the text of every housewife, first and foremost—dry, hard wood. Avoid all snap pish wood, as it is sure to make the cook snappi sh. —Exchange. NAPOLEON S A MOC KS. A Paris correspondent of the Tribune fur nishes that paper with an article upon the late Emperor's Amours, from which we take the following. Hecently, a commission of the Provisional Government, in ransacking the private cabi nets of the Tuilcries, caiue across a package of documents tied with ribbon, and indorsed in the Kmperor's handwriting, Lett re a ijnr iler, which contain sufficient written evidence to enable the fair mistress of Chiselhurst to sue before Lord Penzance with an absolute certainty of divorce. Hut where there is no love there is no jealousy, and it is probable the ex-Empress will not cut off her name to spite her spouse, but will continue to overlook the treasons she had so often condoned. One peculiarity of these secret papers is that they do not compromise any ladies of rank. The first Emperor, in his lion-like wooing, never descended below the circle of aristocracy. His relations with high-born ladies are photographed on the handsome faces of Count Walewski and a late President of the Austrian Parliament, liut the son ot Hortense indicates his democratic affinities in nothing so much as in his choice of sweet hearts. llis oldest son, the Count de Bechevet, is the fruit of his liason with the turnkey's daughter at Ham; and the two names most frequently met with in this gallant chronicle are those of Madame Howard and Marguerite Bellanger. The former lady is said, on the esoteric authority ot Madame Bonaparte Wyse-Hattazzi, to have been barmaid in a London dance-house of evil report, where tfie exiled Prince met her in his shabby Eng lish days. She followed him to Paris, and was finally discarded with a magnificent en dowment and the title of Countess of Beaure gard not long niter the coup d'etat, and re habilitated herself socially by a marriage with Capt. Trevelyan, in whose eyes her rent roll covered a multitude of memories. Marguerite Bellanger was, if the term be not obsolete, a grisette of the Empire. Bom

of the lowest grade of the Paris proletariat, she grew up amid her mother’s wasttfubs a a frail, delicate beauty, with that aristocratic langflor that comes rather from deficient vi tality than high birth. She was too pretty to escape the aesthetic eyes of the students of her quarter, and almost before she was grown she had gained a certain vogue among the soiled doves of the Left Hank of the Seine. One evening His Imperial Majesty was prom enading with a single aide-de-camp by the border of the Lake in the Bois de Boulogne, and this pale, pretty creature caught his eye —the well-known eye of Bndinguet, the cold, sleepy, viseious eye of a dead shark. He ac costed her with ms own inimitable manner, where Jacques Strop tries so hard to be Rob ert Macaire. She did not recognize Csesar in her impertinent admirer, and answered with ready candor of the Latin Quarter, “Latest uiot'j tranquiUe, petite canaille. Let me be little blackguard 1” Common people can never know the delight which an honest insult can give to the jaded senses of a despot. This brutality from the earinined lips of a girl of the gutter com pletely fascinated the autocrat of i’rance. He felt the joy which Browning's queen de clares she would know if the sentinel at the palace should some day throw away his hal berd, ami, seizing her in liis rude arms, kiss her breath away. This street Arab treated him with natural scorn, and the Emperor was charmed and enslaved. Of course as soon aa Jupiter came in his glory, this Semele yielded, and positively seemed to have acquired a cer tain regard for her munificent protector. \v hat rentals heart can cold despise What cut's averse to iish As for the Emporer, he seemed to be com pletely infatuated with what ISalzae calls cette rffroyable passion dcs vicillards corrompus. Among the documents found In his private cabinet is one showing the remarkable trust and confidence he reposed in this girl of the people—selecting her as the putative mother of a child born in the Tnileries under shady circumstances. Two scandals in rapid succession broke up the relation between them. The Emperor was one day prostrated by an epileptic attack in Marguerite’s house. The IriRhtened girl called in the nearest Doctor, and he, with a commendable desire of making the best of the wind-fall, hailed a passing cab. and took lie stiicken potentate home to the Tuileries. The story was too appetizing to be kept from general currency, and Mademoiselle Bellan ger was requested by an agent of the Empress to leave Paris. She politely declined, saying she found the air of the capital remarkably good for her lungs. Her airy insolence saved tier from further molestation. But shortly after, her empty head being turned with her success, she had the indecent effrontery to drive across the head of the Empress’s horses in the Bois, and this time the Prefect of Po lice packed her out of the city to Belgium, where she remained a year; and on her re turn, fresh fields and pastures new had allur ed her fickle shepherd, nnd their relations never were resumed.

Friday morning Frof. Woodman gave Ids closing exercise in free hand drawing, llow circles and ellipses are to be drawn he very clearly explained, and then proceeded to show the application of this knowledge to the draw ing of machinery and to the designing of pot tery. Where the pupil has mastered all the elements presented in the vari ous exercises he is then prepared to do a vast amount of work in the way of application. The Professor thought the elementary prin ciples which he had given, and which any teacher choosing to do so, could take and use. would be suflieient for two years’pi actice. lie concluded by saying a few words about draw ing the human form and objects generally, with a brief explanation of perspective and of tiro point of sight. Mr. Stetson took up the subject of reading and proceeded to show how the reading exer cises in seiiool could be so conducted ns not to consume more than one half of the time at present devoted to these exercises by the teacher, and yet give the pupil three or four times as much drill as he now receives. In the largest school not more than one hour and a quarter of the teacher’s time should be consumed in hearing reading exercises; at present from two to three hours are thus con sumed. and yet the average amount of drill received by each pupil does not exceed three to five minutes a day, when it should he at least twenty. Mr. Stetson explained the method he would pursue for individual read ing, and also the David Stow method of con cert reading, which lias been found to pro duce such tine results in the best Scottish schools, and wherever else it has been used. It is simplicity itself, starting witli the single word, then the short phrase, then a longer phrase,and afterwards the whole sentence. The pupils read after the teacher, and not with, and each one reads independently, though there may be fifty in the class. There is no sing-song, but perfect expression. The fore noon concluded w ith a practical discourse, by Prof. Allen, upon the best way to classify a country school. A programme was dis tributed among the teacher, indicating the Humber of classes proper for the school, and the time for each recitation. It was not ex peete I that the programme would fit every school, hut it would afTord the teachers a model after which tln v could pattern, making such changes as their schools, in each ease, might roxuire. In the afternoon the examination of teach ers occurred. Ten questions in each study were w ritten upon the blackboard by Prof. Allen, the teachers giving w ritten answers Thu exercises of the Institute closed last evening w ith a lecture from Prof Allen on the "Training of liildren. The lecture was listened to by a large and attentive audience, and the excellent ideas advanced cannot fail of having their legitimate influence, and pro ducing good results. Taken as a w hole the exercises of the-Institute have been of the deepest interest to teachers and educators. Mr. Bigelow, the Supervisor, is to he con gratulated on his good fortune in securing an aide corps of instructors fur the work in hand. We are sure that the- one hundred and twenty-five teachers who availed themselves of the privileges of the Institute will goto their winter's work better fitted for imparting instruction to the young.

Gen. l)e Fuladines has repeated his stragetic movement which secur ed his late victory at Orleans, and has accom plished still more important successes. While holding the German powers at Toury l»v threatening in front ith a force equal to their own, he has swung around his left wing, and moving at the same time tin.* whole corps from Chartres along the road leading throngh Ablis, Arsonville. Antiion. and St. Hilaire, to Ktamps, where the corps paused. By this movement he thrust himself between Duke Mecklenburg and Paris, while also encircling the German army on the front, right flank and rear. While this was going on, the German divining the danger, commenced to retreat from Toury northward along the road to Au gervilie, a point 12 miles from Ktamps some fighting occurred, resulting in ail advantage to the French, who everywhere greatly out numbered the enemy. Re Faladine’s van guard is now 22 miles due south ol Versailles. The advance of the army ol Prince Frederic k Charles only reached Auxerre to-day in to day's march from Toury. A despatch from Berlin the 17th, states that a great meeting was held at Munich on the 12th, and an address was voted to the King ol Bavaria, expressing anxiety lest Bavaria should refuse to enter the Bund on the same terms with the other southern states, and pe titioning the King to avoid the danger of the isolation ofBavaiia from the rest ol Germany and to this end to dissolve the chamber elect ed under ether influences and circumstan ces. Versailles. Versailles, Nor. 18. The Kind to-day telegraphed to Queen Augusta that the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg yesterday repulsed the enemy along the whole line, near lJreux. Gen. Treskow at the same time captured Dreux. Many prisoners were taken. The enemy were pursued in the direction of Se tnans. London. London, Nov. 18. The Prussians in Pal adines’ front have not retired to Athenay as before reported. The Prussians now hold all strongholds along the line of the Para Mountains. The siege of Longhy and Montmedy is imminent. Special to the N. Y. World. London, Nov. 18th. A despatch front See’y Pish to Mr. Moran, concerning Alabama claims arrived to-day. Lord Granville being out of town, the des patch could not be communicated to him. fls contents are unknown to the public. In circles where the fact of the arrival is known, great consternation and excitement prevails, as it is assumed that liassia ami the United States have a secret understanding. Odo Kussell was sent to Versailles to ask Ilismarck categorically if lie would at once and unconditionally acquiesce in the rejection of Russian pretensions. The war purty in the cabinet propose, should Bismarck's an swer he either negative or hesitating and dis ingenous, to inform Russia that 4lie must choose between the withdrawal of her claim, and war between them. The peace party of the cabinet, suppose that Qitmarck without commitling himself further, will propose a congress of all the powers to discuss and decide upon the modifi cation of the treaty of 185ti. The peace party are determined to do all that is possible to induce the government to assent to this arrangement, while the war party are equally resolved to adhere to their position, and a split is imminent. A member of the peace party of the govern ment informed your correspondent en lues day tltat the administration would finally yield to iiussian demands since she asked no more than her rights. John Bright's health is still impaired, and he will resign provided the ,war party of the cabinet prevails. Odo Bussell has not yet redched Versailles but is expected to-night. The Army’of the Loire was yesterday at Ktampes, thirty miles from Paris. The Bremen steamship Magdalena, Capt. Wencke. which sailed on Get. loth, for Bre men, has been captured by a French cruiser, and taken into Brest. Earl Bussell has written a pamphlet on the situation, lie proposes a joint armed resis tance of the powers, if Prussia demands more than Alsace and a part of Lorraine, and urges England to form strong military reserves, based on the militia, and to place a strong garrison at (Quebec under an able commander. Vernon Iiarcourt has been appointed to succeed Sir Coleman O’Laughlin as Judge Advocate General. Diplomats all claim to have known that the demand of liussia would be made sooner or later. The public opinion in Bussia is represented to be in favor of peace. English officers are volunteering for ser vice in the Turkish army. It is stated that when the Bussian Minister at Vienna communicated Gotschakolfs note to Von Beust, he accompanied it with as surances of the most peaceful intentions on the part of his government. The Journal Do St. Petersburg declares that Bussia will not prove unwilling to sub mit her demands to a congress if it can be held immediately. It denies that Hussias’ vote meant the abrogation of the entire trea ty Turkey it is said is threatened with internal danger, and intervention is necessary now. Viennn. Vienna, Nov. 18th. While great excite ment bus been created here on the Russian question, the feeling is decidedly not warlike, Von Beust feels sensitively the very delicate position he occupies. Prussia is so sore against him, that while the recent propo sition for (an armistice between Prussia anil France was really his own, he refrnipod from proposing it, and pushed on England to take the initiative. His action in the present Bussian complica tions is crippled lor some reason. He fears to take any step It st he excite the enmity of Bussia, nnd is really anxious to resign. General belief is the Kussian movament is really a demonstration only intended to work in the interests of Prussia in order the outside world may have something else to watch be sides the operations of Prussia in France. It is believed public opinion now alone de lays the bombardment ef Paris. While little doubt is entertained of eventu al trouble through the eastern question, it is not believed that the prefent imbroglio will lead to war. The note in reply to Gortschakofl’s letter is conciliatory and expresses satisfaction at the peace declaration of Russia. FROM NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans, Nov. 18. The trial of the Raton Rouge prisoners has been continued. The contested election cases before Judge Dibble were decided to-day against the Dem ocrats. Ilerlin. Berlin, Nov. 18. The Russian question is viewed here as a matter in which Prussia should decline to meddle. The belief is general that Russia will gain her point. Prussia is apparently in harmony with Russia on the eastern question.. A final arrangement with Bavaria has been completed. Her military position in the German confederation will be the same as that of Saxony and Wurtcnburg, will be bound to submit. FROM BOSTON. {Boston, Nov. 18. Fire.
