MYLES. Los Angeles, July 7.1860. LITTLE BY LITTLE. One step and then another, And tbe longest walk is ended ; One stitch and then another, And the longest rent is mended ; One brick up in another, And the highest wall is made ; One flake upon another, And the deepest snow is laid. So the little coral workers, By their slow and constant motion, Have built those pretty islands In the distant dark blue ocean ; And the noblest undertakings Man's wisdom hath conceived, By olt-repeated efforts Have been patiently achieved. Then do not look disheartened O'er the work you have to do, And say tbat such a mighty task You never can get through ; But just endeavor day by day Another point to gain, And soon the mountain which you feared Will prove to be a plain. " Rome was not builded in a day," The ancient proverb teaches ; And Nature by her trees and flowers, The same sweet sermon preaches. Think not of far-off duties, But of duties which are near ; And having once begun the work, Resolve to persevere. THE "WAR NOW OVERT The Abolitionists, now, realize their full theoretical programme—that for which Lloyd Garrison started thirty years ago—what next can they ask from their man, Mr. Lincoln? Tbe theory of the AboMtionista now is— 1st. That ths slaves will rise, aod free themselves from tbeir masters. 2d. That if they do not rise, their masters will flee away from fear of them. That now, the lull programme being in existence —the war is, practically, over—the rebellion is at an end—the Southern masters are subjugated. We shall see. We run io more risk, now, in pre-announcing, than we have already, tbat the Abolitionists will not realize oue of their theories,—and that Ihey but aggravate and prolong the war, instead of hastening it to any favorable end. Tbe pronunci- amento of tbeir President, if persisted in, will cost us, now— Lives 200.000 Treasure 1,000 GOQ.OOO Debt and Taxation 200 years —N. Y. Express, The President's Pronunciamento. What the Spanish South American Presidents nave been doing for years and years, the President of the Anglo-Saxon United States is trying to do, this A.D. 1863, vi and to make law by a pronnnciamento. Here is the first pronunciamento from Abraham Lincoln. Spanish proounciamentos differ from English proclamationsinthis—that Pronuociamentos upset Law and ordain Law—whereas, English Proclamations but proclaim what Law has been and is. This is nothing but a pronunciamento, and is wicked in principle and precedent, and destructive, in complicating the progress of the civil war, aud Its coming settlement. The novelty, the oddity, the idiosyncrac^r of this Pronunciamento, are : That our President pronounces slavery for the negro where our arms have tbe power to free bim, and denies Freedom where our arms can free this negro. What is within the reach of the army under the War Power, is continued in elavery ; what is out of the reach of the army, beyoud the War Power, is kept slave 1 What we can do, we don't do. What we can't do, we do do, or try to do! - Hence, even under the high prerogative claim of the "War Power,"—the President outrages the Law of Nations, in not doing what he can do, within the reach of his arms,—and in trying to do what he can't do, far beyond the reach of his arms. —N. Y. Express. EUROPEAN INTELLIGENCE. Halifax, February 9.—The steamer Europa from Liverpool, January 24th, andQueenstown the 25th, has arrived. z, overthrow the Constitution' The Paris correspondent ofthe London Times has reason to know that official instructions havo been sent by the French Government'to Washington, suggesting tha't Commissioners be delegated ny the Federal Government and by the Southern States, to meet on neutral ground, and confer together without hostilities being suspended, so that they may advise mutual concessions and effect a reconciliation. The Paris Pays says : " We are able to state that the Government of the Emperor has addressed a communication to tha Washington Government proposing a means of arrangement between the belligerents which would fully protect the dignity of the Americans. Le Nord says France has proposed a convocation of an American Congress, with the view of peace. The London Times cannot perceive any thing in the tone ofthe American people to give any very confident hope that the miseries of that nations are drawing to an end. Six thousand additional reinforcements [French] have been ordered to Mexico. The Weimar Gazette announces the acceptance, by the Duke of Coburg, of the Grecian throne, on condition that the house of Bavaria renounces its right.

TICKNOR & FIELDS, 135 Washington street, Boston, Mast Treason in Illinois.—The New York Evening Post of January 10th has the following in reference to some treasonable movements in the Illinois Legislature : Tbe Democrats in the Illinois Legislature, like some of those of Ohio, evidently contemplate the adoption of measures involving a revolutionary menace to the national authorities. Their eourse up to the present moment exhibits an utter contempt of all considerations of patriotism and duty, and is conclusive that they either mean to take a desperate leap in the dark or feel that through some organization within and above the party they are strong enough to defy the loyal people. That these remarks are well founded the following state ment will amply attest: "On Monday last the 'Democratic' members of the Legislature of Illinois met in caucus to nominate Senatorial and other candidates. In this caucus speechs7were made indicating the 'party' policy. 'Dick' Richardson leading off, said boldly that he did not believe Ihe rebels could be subdued, 'and if they could be he did not think they ought to be [' Another Richard—one Merrick, famous among Illinois'copper heads'—said he did not know 'which was tbe greatest treason, the Government at Wsehignton or the Government at Richmond.' 'The country' said he, 'will never be united until every Northern fanatic is hung, from Charles Sumner down." But he was very careful not to intimate that it would be proper to punish the rebels—in fact, he objected altogether to any such process, condemning all the measures looking in tbat directiou. Merrick closed, of course by denouncing New Eugland, and advocating a separation from it aud tbe creation of a Western Republic. "Another speaker—one Goudy, from Chicago— declared himself unequivocally for revolution, whereat the caucus applauded with tremendous satisfaction. The caucus throughout was characterized by a revolutionary spirit, aud great excitement has naturally resulted, extending to all parls ol the State. Subsequently to this caucus a meeting of the committee appoiuted by it was held, at which ground was taken in favor of demaudiug the Governor to immediately withdraw the troops from Illinois from the field. They say the troops were enlisted by the Administration on a fraudulent pretense, and justice demands tbat they Bhould be withdrawn. If the Governor refuses to do so, be is to be compelled to do it." Tbe correspondent of the Missouri Democrat, wbo appeara to be well-iulormed, does not doubt at all tbat tbe Democratic majority entertain treasonable designs, and urges that tbe people should be prepared for any emergency, however desperate. MilitabyIAppointmbnt.—Capt. Jones, of the se- oond Regiment of Cavalry, C. V., has been promoted to the Lieutenant-Colonelcy, nice Evans, promoted. The latter has been appointed Colonel of the same regiment, in place of Simms, resigned. The Liberian Consul in London, in a letter, states that there are numbers of runaway American negroes in London who are in a wretched condition and he seeks assistance to ship them to Liberia where each one will be presented with five acres of land. Tbey oan get no employment in London by which to sustain life. Congressional. Chicago, February 10.—Tbe military committee of the Senate reported yesterday a substitute for the Conscription bill proposed some days since. It is stated that the bill agreed on in tbe committee is a sort of compromise of all the committee's views and will be pressed to a vote. In its present shape it enacts that all able-bodied male citizens in the United Siales, between the ages of 18 and 45, are decided to constilute the national forces, and shall be liable to military duty when called out by the President. Section 2d gives the classes of persons exempt Including the Vice President, Judges of the various Courts of the United States, the Heada of Departments, and such persons as are physically, morally, or mentally unfit for the service ; s-uch as are necessary for the support of aged and infirm parents, or orphans, or helpless children. The 3d section divides the national forces not now in the service into two classes: .first, those between 18 and 30, and unmarried above that age ; tbe second class, all others. The second class not to be called into Eerviue until the first are exhausted. SecLion 4th provides that for the greater convenience of enrolling and organizing, the United States shall be divided into military districts, answering to the Congressional districts ot States and Territories, with a Provost Marshal with the rank of captain of cavalry, in each district, subject to the orders of the Provost Marshal Gsneral. The other sections provide for sub districts, and the appointment, befure the 10th of March, and in each alternate year thereafter, of au enrolling officer in each district, who is to enrol all perBona subject to duty, before the 1ft of April, to include those of the first rlaas who are subject for two years to be called iuto service, and to serve three years or during tha war, and wheu drafted into the service shall be upon the same looting as volunteers. Another bill was introduced into the Senate by Mr. Sumner, which provides for the enrollment of all able-bodied blacks between the ages of 18 and 45, who have beenlreed by Congress or-the proclamation of the President, by the commanding officer of the departmeut within wbicb tbey shall be found. They are to be organized, armed and equipped, and mustered into the service for the war; their pay to be $7 per month ; one-half to be retained until the end of their service. Another section authorizes the voluntary enlistment of free blacks between the ages cf 18 and 35, with the same pay as white volunteers—the aggregate enrolled uuder tbe Act not to exceed 300,000 men. Death op the Chief Rabbi op Jerusalem —Tha correspondent of tbe New Yok Jewish Messenger, writing from Jerusalem, under date of November 7th, Bays that on the night of Thursday, the Chief Rabbi ofthe Perashim received a call from heaven and he responded " Behold, here am I." You, reverend sir, who have known and corresponded with bim for so many years, you can partially value tha the feeling whieh pervades all the communities in the Holy Land at the loss they have sustained, but you can have no idea of the gloom his death has cast o'er Palestine. "He Judged Israel" thirty five years. During the whole of that period he devoted himself to the study of the law, and the practice of good deeds. As the faithful pastor and the benevolent ruler he was equal to any of his predecessors, and was the chief treasurer of all the moneys received from nearly every section ofthe globe, for his community. The best evidence of his administrative honesty exists in the fact, tharj although in possession of a good salary, and thousands of dollars passing annually through his hands yet he departed from our midst with barely a piastre in his purse, leaving his family actually destitute. You will recollect how he lauded hia American brethren for their munificent liberality. Little did we imagine that his stewardship would cease so speedily. However, so it is. He has a good account to render at the bar of heaven ; and those of his kindred who are lelt destitute— "the judge of the widows and the father of the orphans" will not- forsake them. New York, February 10.—A Fort Clinch (Florida) letter of the 31st January, says, a fight took place on St. Mary's river, near the Scrubby Bluff, between some rebel cavalry and three companies of negroes—South Carolina volunteers. The rebels attempted to take the steamer John Adams, but were beaten off by the negro soldiers. The steamer North Star, from New Orleans the 80tb January, has arrived. Nothing new has transpired indicating Gen. Banks's programme. . Tbe re" bela at Port Hudson continue fortifying. It is reported that the local banks have combined agaiust the Federal currency, and greenbacks are 2. per cent discount. The facts of the capture of the ship Morning Light off Sabine, show that assistance was sent from our fleet, but the rebels seeing our gunboats coming burned the ship. It is not known whether she was defended. The North Star, last night, collided with the steamer Ella Worley, off Woodland, crushing the Worley's boilers and sinking her immediately. The first assistant engineer and six firemen were lost. The New Orleans Picayune of the first February has Rio Grande advices of the 22d January, and says the French have not evacuated Matamoras, Tampico has been evacuated, but the port is stil| blockaded. A large number of merchantmen were at the mouth ol the Rio Grande, with cargoes for Matamoras. The Herald has advices from the city of Mexioo to the 4th ot January, being one week later. The Mexicans complain of their sympathizing American neighbors, lor sending supplies of mules to the French, and under the circumstances began to capture the newly arrived animals as fast as they oan. The French are gradually advancing to attack Pu- ebla, where the Mexicans are ready for the invaders. Gen. Caravajal is continually on the watch, guarding against surprise. It is said tbat tbe enthusiasm ot the Mexican soldiers to meet the enemy amounts to a kind of frenzy. The London Builder says a company has been formed to bring into practical use a Bpiral fluted nail, recently invented in England. Tbey are fluted and twisted in a machine, and are manufactured as cheaply as common nails. The holding qualities of the uails are remarkable ; no holes are required to be made before driving those of the largest size, and there is no danger of the board splitting, however near to the edge the nail ia driven. The spiral point causes the nail to revolve as it advances, and its tenacity of holding is equal to that of a wood screw. Women are best in making common-sense cats. They don't reason—pardon me, I am not rude. Theyjdo not find it necessary to set that machinery of judgment in operation of wh ch man Is bo vain. They have a way of their own—sn instinct peculiar to tbeir Bex—a gift which elevates them. Within certain limits andjon certain subjects they pounce with unerring aim upon the truth. Tbey can't give reason for their conclusions. They are at least very silly if they try to do so, and not improbably disturb the successful impression of their impromptu sentence. It they are wise they give no reasons but answer; and, if sudden, it is probably right. They have a power of discernment in many things not possessed by man. With them it is no guess, but a common instinctive perception. To most men it ia a mysterious faculty, and redeems the short cuts of common life from the general charge of foolhardiness or chance,— [Once a Week.] . A wealthy French financier being convicted of filling his own coffers at the expense of the royal treasury, was deprived of his office and dismissed from tbe court. He showed no confusion at his disgrace, and was merely beard to say: " They have doue very wrong lo dismiss me ; I had pro- vided sufficiently for myself, and was just going to exert myself for the State.'' One good effect of our present war will be to promote a study of geography, and hundreds of important places that a year or two since were scarcely known by name, are now as familiar to the people of the North as " household words." Tbe State of Tennessee, among other sections, has been made familiar. Also, Holly Springs, the metropolis of Northern Mississippi. It is a fine city, both in wealth aud number of inhabitants' and the residences of the wealthy cit zens would grace some ofthe fashionable avenues of our Northern cities. The Portland (Maine) Argus hears strange stories ol peculations of rebel property by army officers from New Englaud, wbo, it is alleged, have "confiscated1'! wilhout authority, and illegal'y ap- propraicd it to their own uie. Some of the articles thus stolen have been sent home. An American paper says : "Iu England, Indie* dont allow themselves to be put on the shelf quite as soon as ours. They are not supposed to reach the lull bloom of maturity until forty, an age at which all true judges think their charms XL,'' w .a-SM CO — CO CO CM o co 0> CM T^- OO CM r- CM — CO CM o 1 LO CM — CM o>__ co CM CM CM — CM 03 O CM ~ CT> T~ CO I r

One step and then another, And tbe longest walk is ended ; One stitch and then another, And the longest rent is mended ; One brick up in another, And the highest wall is made ; One flake upon another, And the deepest snow is laid. So the little coral workers, By their slow and constant motion, Have built those pretty islands In the distant dark blue ocean ; And the noblest undertakings Man's wisdom hath conceived, By olt-repeated efforts Have been patiently achieved. Then do not look disheartened O'er the work you have to do, And say tbat such a mighty task You never can get through ; But just endeavor day by day Another point to gain, And soon the mountain which you feared Will prove to be a plain. " Rome was not builded in a day," The ancient proverb teaches ; And Nature by her trees and flowers, The same sweet sermon preaches. Think not of far-off duties, But of duties which are near ; And having once begun the work, Resolve to persevere. THE "WAR NOW OVERT The Abolitionists, now, realize their full theoretical programme—that for which Lloyd Garrison started thirty years ago—what next can they ask from their man, Mr. Lincoln? Tbe theory of the AboMtionista now is— 1st. That ths slaves will rise, aod free themselves from tbeir masters. 2d. That if they do not rise, their masters will flee away from fear of them. That now, the lull programme being in existence —the war is, practically, over—the rebellion is at an end—the Southern masters are subjugated. We shall see. We run io more risk, now, in pre-announcing, than we have already, tbat the Abolitionists will not realize oue of their theories,—and that Ihey but aggravate and prolong the war, instead of hastening it to any favorable end. Tbe pronunci- amento of tbeir President, if persisted in, will cost us, now— Lives 200.000 Treasure 1,000 GOQ.OOO Debt and Taxation 200 years —N. Y. Express, The President's Pronunciamento. What the Spanish South American Presidents nave been doing for years and years, the President of the Anglo-Saxon United States is trying to do, this A.D. 1863, vi and to make law by a pronnnciamento. Here is the first pronunciamento from Abraham Lincoln. Spanish proounciamentos differ from English proclamationsinthis—that Pronuociamentos upset Law and ordain Law—whereas, English Proclamations but proclaim what Law has been and is. This is nothing but a pronunciamento, and is wicked in principle and precedent, and destructive, in complicating the progress of the civil war, aud Its coming settlement. The novelty, the oddity, the idiosyncrac^r of this Pronunciamento, are : That our President pronounces slavery for the negro where our arms have tbe power to free bim, and denies Freedom where our arms can free this negro. What is within the reach of the army under the War Power, is continued in elavery ; what is out of the reach of the army, beyoud the War Power, is kept slave 1 What we can do, we don't do. What we can't do, we do do, or try to do! - Hence, even under the high prerogative claim of the "War Power,"—the President outrages the Law of Nations, in not doing what he can do, within the reach of his arms,—and in trying to do what he can't do, far beyond the reach of his arms. —N.

The Paris Pays says : " We are able to state that the Government of the Emperor has addressed a communication to tha Washington Government proposing a means of arrangement between the belligerents which would fully protect the dignity of the Americans. Le Nord says France has proposed a convocation of an American Congress, with the view of peace. The London Times cannot perceive any thing in the tone ofthe American people to give any very confident hope that the miseries of that nations are drawing to an end. Six thousand additional reinforcements [French] have been ordered to Mexico.

TICKNOR & FIELDS, 135 Washington street, Boston, Mast Treason in Illinois.—The New York Evening Post of January 10th has the following in reference to some treasonable movements in the Illinois Legislature : Tbe Democrats in the Illinois Legislature, like some of those of Ohio, evidently contemplate the adoption of measures involving a revolutionary menace to the national authorities. Their eourse up to the present moment exhibits an utter contempt of all considerations of patriotism and duty, and is conclusive that they either mean to take a desperate leap in the dark or feel that through some organization within and above the party they are strong enough to defy the loyal people. That these remarks are well founded the following state ment will amply attest: "On Monday last the 'Democratic' members of the Legislature of Illinois met in caucus to nominate Senatorial and other candidates. In this caucus speechs7were made indicating the 'party' policy. 'Dick' Richardson leading off, said boldly that he did not believe Ihe rebels could be subdued, 'and if they could be he did not think they ought to be [' Another Richard—one Merrick, famous among Illinois'copper heads'—said he did not know 'which was tbe greatest treason, the Government at Wsehignton or the Government at Richmond.' 'The country' said he, 'will never be united until every Northern fanatic is hung, from Charles Sumner down." But he was very careful not to intimate that it would be proper to punish the rebels—in fact, he objected altogether to any such process, condemning all the measures looking in tbat directiou. Merrick closed, of course by denouncing New Eugland, and advocating a separation from it aud tbe creation of a Western Republic. "Another speaker—one Goudy, from Chicago— declared himself unequivocally for revolution, whereat the caucus applauded with tremendous satisfaction. The caucus throughout was characterized by a revolutionary spirit, aud great excitement has naturally resulted, extending to all parls ol the State. Subsequently to this caucus a meeting of the committee appoiuted by it was held, at which ground was taken in favor of demaudiug the Governor to immediately withdraw the troops from Illinois from the field. They say the troops were enlisted by the Administration on a fraudulent pretense, and justice demands tbat they Bhould be withdrawn. If the Governor refuses to do so, be is to be compelled to do it." Tbe correspondent of the Missouri Democrat, wbo appeara to be well-iulormed, does not doubt at all tbat tbe Democratic majority entertain treasonable designs, and urges that tbe people should be prepared for any emergency, however desperate. MilitabyIAppointmbnt.—Capt. Jones, of the se- oond Regiment of Cavalry, C. V., has been promoted to the Lieutenant-Colonelcy, nice Evans, promoted. The latter has been appointed Colonel of the same regiment, in place of Simms, resigned. The Liberian Consul in London, in a letter, states that there are numbers of runaway American negroes in London who are in a wretched condition and he seeks assistance to ship them to Liberia where each one will be presented with five acres of land. Tbey oan get no employment in London by which to sustain life. Congressional. Chicago, February 10.—Tbe military committee of the Senate reported yesterday a substitute for the Conscription bill proposed some days since. It is stated that the bill agreed on in tbe committee is a sort of compromise of all the committee's views and will be pressed to a vote. In its present shape it enacts that all able-bodied male citizens in the United Siales, between the ages of 18 and 45, are decided to constilute the national forces, and shall be liable to military duty when called out by the President. Section 2d gives the classes of persons exempt Including the Vice President, Judges of the various Courts of the United States, the Heada of Departments, and such persons as are physically, morally, or mentally unfit for the service ; s-uch as are necessary for the support of aged and infirm parents, or orphans, or helpless children. The 3d section divides the national forces not now in the service into two classes: .first, those between 18 and 30, and unmarried above that age ; tbe second class, all others. The second class not to be called into Eerviue until the first are exhausted. SecLion 4th provides that for the greater convenience of enrolling and organizing, the United States shall be divided into military districts, answering to the Congressional districts ot States and Territories, with a Provost Marshal with the rank of captain of cavalry, in each district, subject to the orders of the Provost Marshal Gsneral. The other sections provide for sub districts, and the appointment, befure the 10th of March, and in each alternate year thereafter, of au enrolling officer in each district, who is to enrol all perBona subject to duty, before the 1ft of April, to include those of the first rlaas who are subject for two years to be called iuto service, and to serve three years or during tha war, and wheu drafted into the service shall be upon the same looting as volunteers. Another bill was introduced into the Senate by Mr. Sumner, which provides for the enrollment of all able-bodied blacks between the ages of 18 and 45, who have beenlreed by Congress or-the proclamation of the President, by the commanding officer of the departmeut within wbicb tbey shall be found. They are to be organized, armed and equipped, and mustered into the service for the war; their pay to be $7 per month ; one-half to be retained until the end of their service. Another section authorizes the voluntary enlistment of free blacks between the ages cf 18 and 35, with the same pay as white volunteers—the aggregate enrolled uuder tbe Act not to exceed 300,000 men. Death op the Chief Rabbi op Jerusalem —Tha correspondent of tbe New Yok Jewish Messenger, writing from Jerusalem, under date of November 7th, Bays that on the night of Thursday, the Chief Rabbi ofthe Perashim received a call from heaven and he responded " Behold, here am I." You, reverend sir, who have known and corresponded with bim for so many years, you can partially value tha the feeling whieh pervades all the communities in the Holy Land at the loss they have sustained, but you can have no idea of the gloom his death has cast o'er Palestine. "He Judged Israel" thirty five years. During the whole of that period he devoted himself to the study of the law, and the practice of good deeds. As the faithful pastor and the benevolent ruler he was equal to any of his predecessors, and was the chief treasurer of all the moneys received from nearly every section ofthe globe, for his community. The best evidence of his administrative honesty exists in the fact, tharj although in possession of a good salary, and thousands of dollars passing annually through his hands yet he departed from our midst with barely a piastre in his purse, leaving his family actually destitute. You will recollect how he lauded hia American brethren for their munificent liberality. Little did we imagine that his stewardship would cease so speedily. However, so it is. He has a good account to render at the bar of heaven ; and those of his kindred who are lelt destitute— "the judge of the widows and the father of the orphans" will not- forsake them. New York, February 10.—A Fort Clinch (Florida) letter of the 31st January, says, a fight took place on St. Mary's river, near the Scrubby Bluff, between some rebel cavalry and three companies of negroes—South Carolina volunteers. The rebels attempted to take the steamer John Adams, but were beaten off by the negro soldiers. The steamer North Star, from New Orleans the 80tb January, has arrived. Nothing new has transpired indicating Gen. Banks's programme. . Tbe re" bela at Port Hudson continue fortifying. It is reported that the local banks have combined agaiust the Federal currency, and greenbacks are 2. per cent discount. The facts of the capture of the ship Morning Light off Sabine, show that assistance was sent from our fleet, but the rebels seeing our gunboats coming burned the ship. It is not known whether she was defended. The North Star, last night, collided with the steamer Ella Worley, off Woodland, crushing the Worley's boilers and sinking her immediately. The first assistant engineer and six firemen were lost. The New Orleans Picayune of the first February has Rio Grande advices of the 22d January, and says the French have not evacuated Matamoras, Tampico has been evacuated, but the port is stil| blockaded. A large number of merchantmen were at the mouth ol the Rio Grande, with cargoes for Matamoras. The Herald has advices from the city of Mexioo to the 4th ot January, being one week later. The Mexicans complain of their sympathizing American neighbors, lor sending supplies of mules to the French, and under the circumstances began to capture the newly arrived animals as fast as they oan. The French are gradually advancing to attack Pu- ebla, where the Mexicans are ready for the invaders. Gen. Caravajal is continually on the watch, guarding against surprise. It is said tbat tbe enthusiasm ot the Mexican soldiers to meet the enemy amounts to a kind of frenzy. The London Builder says a company has been formed to bring into practical use a Bpiral fluted nail, recently invented in England. Tbey are fluted and twisted in a machine, and are manufactured as cheaply as common nails. The holding qualities of the uails are remarkable ; no holes are required to be made before driving those of the largest size, and there is no danger of the board splitting, however near to the edge the nail ia driven. The spiral point causes the nail to revolve as it advances, and its tenacity of holding is equal to that of a wood screw. Women are best in making common-sense cats. They don't reason—pardon me, I am not rude. Theyjdo not find it necessary to set that machinery of judgment in operation of wh ch man Is bo vain. They have a way of their own—sn instinct peculiar to tbeir Bex—a gift which elevates them. Within certain limits andjon certain subjects they pounce with unerring aim upon the truth. Tbey can't give reason for their conclusions. They are at least very silly if they try to do so, and not improbably disturb the successful impression of their impromptu sentence. It they are wise they give no reasons but answer; and, if sudden, it is probably right. They have a power of discernment in many things not possessed by man. With them it is no guess, but a common instinctive perception. To most men it ia a mysterious faculty, and redeems the short cuts of common life from the general charge of foolhardiness or chance,— [Once a Week.] . A wealthy French financier being convicted of filling his own coffers at the expense of the royal treasury, was deprived of his office and dismissed from tbe court. He showed no confusion at his disgrace, and was merely beard to say: " They have doue very wrong lo dismiss me ; I had pro- vided sufficiently for myself, and was just going to exert myself for the State.'' One good effect of our present war will be to promote a study of geography, and hundreds of important places that a year or two since were scarcely known by name, are now as familiar to the people of the North as " household words." Tbe State of Tennessee, among other sections, has been made familiar. Also, Holly Springs, the metropolis of Northern Mississippi. It is a fine city, both in wealth aud number of inhabitants' and the residences of the wealthy cit zens would grace some ofthe fashionable avenues of our Northern cities. The Portland (Maine) Argus hears strange stories ol peculations of rebel property by army officers from New Englaud, wbo, it is alleged, have "confiscated1'! wilhout authority, and illegal'y ap- propraicd it to their own uie. Some of the articles thus stolen have been sent home. An American paper says : "Iu England, Indie* dont allow themselves to be put on the shelf quite as soon as ours. They are not supposed to reach the lull bloom of maturity until forty, an age at which all true judges think their charms XL,'' w .a-SM CO — CO CO CM o co 0> CM T^- OO CM r- CM — CO CM o 1 LO CM — CM o>__ co CM CM CM — CM 03 O CM ~ CT> T~ CO I r |
