in the family of noailles �ϻ��ɽ�����ô���ߵ�ݸʽ����qq,�ɽ�����ô�иߵ��������there had been six marshals of france, and at the time of the marriage, the old mar��chal de noailles, grandfather of the count, was still living. [55] at his death, his son, also mar��chal, became of course duc de noailles, and his son, the husband of mlle. d��aguesseau, duc d��ayen, by which name it will be most convenient to call him to avoid confusion, from the beginning of this biography.but neither her children nor her charitable and religious duties, absorbing as they were to her, could exclude her from intense excitement and interest in the political events going on around her. the questions discussed were so vital, and the changes so sweeping, that every phase of life was affected by them.as the boys rode along, their attention was drawn to some tall ladders that rose above the buildings, and they eagerly asked the doctor what those ladders were for. they could not see the use of climbing up in the air and then coming down again; and, altogether, the things were a mystery to them. a few words explained the matter. the ladders were nothing more nor less than fire-lookouts, and were elevated above the buildings so that the watchmen could have an unobstructed view. a bell was attached to each ladder, and by means of it a warning-signal was given in case of a threatened conflagration. fires are frequent in tokio, and some o
with the vernet family, too, she was on intimate terms. the landscape painter, joseph vernet, was always a kind friend to her. his son charles, or carle, as he was called, was also an artist, and his daughter ��milie, the wife of m. chalgrin, was constantly at her house.thus happily and peacefully the rest of her life flowed on; her interest in all political and social matters��art, science, and literature��remaining undiminished, her affection for old friends unaltered, while new ones were constantly added to the number, until on may 29, 1842, she died at the age of eighty-seven.'tis very well to sing on land.from the horrors of the revolution she had fled in time; with the empire and its worshippers she had never had any sympathy; the episode of the hundred days was a new calamity, but when it was past and the king again restored her joy was complete."it is very wide, and easy of navigation," the doctor continued, "and yet a stranger might not be aware of its existence, and might sail by it if he did not know where to look for the harbor. a ship must get well in towards the land be�ϻ��ɽ�����ô���ߵ�ݸʽ����qqfore the golden gate is visible.""the next day," said the doctor, "i went on from nara to kioto, which was another thirty miles, in about the same time and �ɽ�����ô�иߵ��������with a similar halt for dinner. i had the same men as on the day before, and they raced merrily along without the least sign of fatigue, although there was a pouring rain all day that made the roads very heavy. frequently there were steep little hills to ascend where the road passed over the
they strolled along to where there were some black-eyed girls in charge of booths, where, for a small consi�ɽ�����ô�иߵ��������deration, a visitor can practise shooting with bows and arrows. the bows were very small, and the arrows were blunt at the ends. the target was a drum, and consequently the marksman's ear, rather than the eye, told when a shot was successful. the drums were generally square, and in front of each there was a little block of wood. a click on the wood showed that a shot was of more value than when it was followed by the dull boom of the drum. the girls brought tea to the boys, and endeavored�ϻ���������ô��ȫ����۸� to engage them in conversation, but, as there was no common language in which they could talk, the dialogue was not particularly interesting. the boys patronized the archery business, and tried a few shots with the japanese equipments; but they found the little arrows rather difficult to handle, on account of their diminutive size. an arrow six inches long is hardly heavy enough to allow of a steady aim, and both of the youths declared they would prefe
