Are you tired? If not, put your hands on your hips-keep your feet close -now hold out your right hand in front, level with the shoulder, and try and kick the palm of it with the right foot six times-knees stiff-now the left hand and left foot-don't stoop, and keep your knees quite straight.

23. Again. Open your hands, extend them in front, the backs touching, and swing them back in a line with the shoulders, till the palms touch behind.

25. A chinese bow. Stand-feet close -hands open-hold your arms straight up like the 5th exercise, palms in frontbend your body forward, and touch the ground with the tips of the fingers several times-keep the knees quite straightjust so.

24. Now, my young Gymnasts, try this. Hands on hips-rise on your toes -steady-bend your knees, and go gradually down, till your thighs touch your heels-extend your arms, and fall forwards on your hands, (take care of your noses!) so that your body forms a straight line from the head to the heels-like mine-rest on your hands and toes.

26. Try the 24th exercise again.Now, while you are down, spring up a little from your toes, and clap your hands before coming to the ground again—rather hard to do, isn't it? At it again, once

more.

27. A trial of strength. Each stand facing his neighbour-every one put his left hand on his hip, his right foot forward, and right arm in front-now grasp each other's hands-put elbow to elbow -and try who can bring down his opponent's arm, either to the right or left.

28. What say you to a rest a la Turc? Well then-feet close-hands on hipscross your legs-bend your knees gradually and sit down thus-now rise perpendicularly, without taking hands off hips.

29. Once more. Try the 27th exercise with the right hand on hip, left foot forward, and left arm in front.

30. Can you do this? Feet closeextend arms in front-raise left leg in in front-bend right knee gradually, and

39. Face each other-hook one another by the fingers of both hands, toes meeting-lean back and go round quickly. We used to call this the roasting jack.

40. Take your places. Again hands on hips-feet close-rise on toes, and jump forward with straight knees-jump backward to your places.

41. Let each grasp his left hand with his right, or, what is better, bend the fingers of the left hand and hook them with the right-bring your arms over your head and behind the neck-pull your right arm with a jerk, as far as you can, so-now the left arm-the right againseveral times.

44. Try the 42d exercise with the left arm on the left ear-don't be afraid of pulling your ear too hard.

45. See if you can improve upon the 43d exercise, by trying to kick both thighs at once, as you jump forward. My little friends, the object in these different exercises is to give a great elasticity to the muscles of the legs, the necessity for which you will see by and by.

46. You remember the exercise I showed you, No. 17? Well, let your thighs touch your heels-extend your arms in front-throw yourself down on your hands-arms straight and stiff-let your body form a straight line from head to heel, as you did in the 24th exerciseremain so for a short time-now bring your feet, with a spring, between your hands-rise.

47. Hands on hips-left foot in front, toe pointing towards the ground-jump forward on the right toe-back again to your places.

42. Put your right arm behind your neck, bring your hand in front of your chin, and try to pull the right ear with the right hand.

43. Feet close-run with hands on hips, and try to kick your thighs alternately.

48. Perform the 46th exercise as before; but, previous to rising, spring the hands from the ground and clap them-rise.

49. Go through the 47th exercise, but with the right foot forward.

since the death of Napoleon. During that time most of the sovereigns and generals who conquered this mighty conqueror have been laid in the grave, where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest.

In vol. vii. p. 197 of Parley's Magazine we gave a limited sketch of his tomb at St. Helena. Louis Philippe, the present king of France, a few months since resolved to remove his remains to Paris, and despatched the frigate Belle Poule, commanded by his son the Prince de Joinville, for this purpose. The frigate arrived at St. Helena, about the middle

mony of exhumation took place, and the remains were carried on board the Belle Poule. The body of the emperor, it is said, was found in complete preservation, having been embalmed a few days after his death by French chymists.

The present engraving exhibits an enlarged view of the tomb, as well as of the scenery in the neighborhood of Longwood, where Napoleon resided from November 1815, to May 5, 1821, when he died at the age of 51 years and 8 months. Our younger readers may ask, Where

is the island of St. Helena ?

It is an isolated rock in the Atlantic

A FARTHING LORD.

LORD Braco, an ancestor of the earl of Fife, was remarkable for practising that celebrated rule, 'Get all you can,and keep all you get.' One day, walking down the avenue he saw a farthing in the dirt which he took up and carefully cleaned. A beggar passing at the time intreated his lordship would give him the farthing, saying it was not worth a nobleman's attention. "Fin' a farthing to yoursel, puir body," replied his lordship, and put the

coin into his pocket. In addition to being his own farthing fin'er, his lordship was his own rent-collector. A tenant who called upon him to pay his rent happened to be deficient a single farthing. This amount could not be excused, and the farmer had to seek the farthing.

When the business was adjusted, the countryman said to his lordship, "Now, Braco, I would gie ye a shillin' for a sight o' a' the goud and siller ye hae."- Weel mon, it's no cost ye ony mair,' replied the
