An article appeared in the Liverpool Post yester day to the effect that the National Rifle Association will shortly hold another meeting to reconsider its acceptance of the American challenge, because of the efforts of the Americans to induce the teams from Scotland and Ireland to go over and compete, is pronounced untrue. Capt. Wildrusy, secretary of the National Rifle Association, writes that there is no intention on the part of the Council to hold another meeting at present. Resolutions were a iopled on the 23d of January, that Sir Henry Halford be requested to make All necessary arrange ments for the match, is the latest action taken in reference to the challenge. The captain has sent a copy of the Post’s article to Sir Henry Halford.

Pabis, Jan. 10.—Friday evening we were dining with Baron Leaseps, at his little Oriental palace in the Avenne Montaigne, when M. Emile de Girardin, who was be hind time, came in and said he had just been with the Vicomte de la Guerronniere in his last moments. His death was very sudden ; he did not recognize De Girardin. A moment afterward another guest, who was late, said to the lady of the honse— “ My dear Baroness, I came near not com ing to yon to day; I have just lost, one af ter another, four of my friends, the Mar quis de St. Georges, M. Jubinal, M. Charles lafltte, and the Vicomte de la Guerrou- iere.” “My dinner seems like Lucrezia Borgia’s supper’” cried Madame de Lessens.

Adversely and bill lost. On notion of Mr. Howell the bill incor porating the Merchants’ Bank of Atlanta, was taken up. Mr. Cooper opposed the bill, as he was opposed to paper money. It has brought all the present evils on the country. Mr. Cooper filled out his full time, but by unanimous consent, was granted an exten sion. In addition to the amendments offered by the committee on banks, Mr. Cooper offered several amendments, in one of which he inserted the words “gold and silver” instead of lawful money of the United States. Mr. Howell, the author of the bill, came to its rescue. Mr. Blance entertained similar views as Col. Cooper. Mr. Winn advocated the bill in a telling speech. The opposition characterized the bill as a mon strosity, when in fact it was the only way we had now-a-days of getting money. He hoped the bill would pass. The yeas and nays were called on some of the various amendments, which were invariably lost. Mr. Cooper then withdrew another amendment, because he saw a decided dis position to "hug the rag-baby.” Mr. Crawlord moved that the whole thing be re-committed to the committee, as it had been amended and patched op until it was not recognizable.

Speaker Hardeman in the chair. Prayer offered by the Rev. John Jones Chaplain. On motion of Mr. Peeples of Gwinnett the call of the roll was suspended. The journal of Wednesday was read and approved. Mr. Baker, of Bartow, moved to recon sider so much of the action of the House as relates to its action on the following bill, to-wit: A bill to repeal an act entit'ed an act to create a State Board of Health. An animated discussion arose on the re peal of this bill, Messrs. Turnbull, of Banks, Peeples, of Gwinnett,and Baker, of Bartow, favoring -its repeal. It was ably defended on the other side bv Messrs. Gra ham, of Dade, Hammond, of Thomas, Thomas, of Chatham, Nelms, of Campbell, and Livingston, of Newton. After some time spent in the discussion of the matter before the House, Mr. All- red, of Pickens called for the previous question, which call was sustained. Mr. Turnbull, of Banks, on the motion reconsider, moved for the call of the yeas and nays, which call was sustained, and the Clerk proceeded with the call, which resulted as follows: Yeas 72, nays 60. So tbe bill to reconsider prevailed. Mr. Lawton, chairman of the Committee on Judiciary, submitted the committee report. Mr. Bacon, of Bibb, chairman of the Committee on Corporations, submitted the committee report. Mr. Graham, of Dade, chairman on en rollment, submitted the committee report, The hoar of 11 o’clock having arrived, the following bill was taken np as the special order of the day, and the Home proceeded with the consideration of the same, to-wit: To repeal an act to create the office of State Geologist, and for other purposes. A discussion was again entered into, par ticipated in by Messrs. Turnbull, of Banks, in favor of the repeal of the bill, and Adami of Monroe, and Smith, of Dawsou, oppose* to its repeal. After considerable discus sion, Mr. Rankin, of Gordon, called the previous question on the indefinite post ponement of the bill, which call was sus tained. Turnbull, of Banks, on the mo tion to indefinitely postpone the bill, called for tbe yeas and nays, which call was sus tained and the Clerk proceeded with the tories, was Major Fridolin. HU daughters, equally famous for their beauty and fashion, were the MarquUe de Galiffet and Madame Cordier, two incomparable belles. He was a true type of French character, always gay, always young, hav ing the ready money of wit as well as the ready money of the bank. We dined together all last winter, and he was the most listened to of all the company. He said things to be remembered and quoted, like these : “Every woman bears the mark either of God or the devil;” “How many men of genius there are without talent, and how many men of talent without genius.” When he was asked his political opinions he said: “It is hard for me to be a Republican between the Whites and the Reds; still I am devoted to the Green Republic, that of the woods and fields.” M. de la Guerronniere made his po litical fortune by a portrait of Napoleon III. in the solemn style of Lamartine. He wrote very little, which is a virtue in these times. He said, like Pythagoras, “Be si lent, unless you can say something better than silence.” I think I told you once that he had on his table a sand-glass which marked five minutes for visitors. When La Guerronniere turned his glass the most loquacious would take his hat. Two weeks ago we dined together at the house of the Countess de la Chatre, his cousin, with Henry de Pene and someother journalists. The dinner was very gay, consideringthat we were thirteen at the table, I am very sorry La Guerronniere is dead, but since somebody had to die I am glad that it was he rather than L a The harmony of numbers cannot be dis turbed with impunity, any more than that of the waves of the sea or the vibrations of universal light. A grain of sand under the wheels of time would throw the world off the track. When the Svbarite com plained of the crumpled rose-leaf he spoke a word of deep philosophy. Shall I speak of the Marquis of St. George ? He was a man of talent, who imagined he would make himself illus trious by writing the libretto of a comic opera. Voltaire had said of Fontenelle. ‘Born to all gifts, he made an opera!” St. George’s was considered old as the hills because his couplets had been sung under the Restoration, and even under the First Empire. He had been dyeing his hair for half a century, and his wonderful state of preservation had been admired for at least twenty-five years. He was at all the balls and dinner-parties—at some because he was the author of words set to music by Auber and Halevy, at others merely be cause he was the Marquis de 8t. George. One dav a fashionable woman said to him seriously, “How can a gentleman like you write comic operas?” very much as that imbecile Boileau said to Moliere, “How can you amuse yourself with such farces?” This Marquis of 8t Georges was the most gallant of men who believed all life to be composed of comic operas. While I was director of the Theatre Lyrique he brought me his whole repertory. Return ing his visit I was astonished to find him lodged so high. He said, “I mount as many stairs as I have descended years.” He ran up his five flights like a man with a light heart. May the turf lie as lightly on him. line word of Acbille Jubinal, the fourth in the list of the days necrology. He was a poet and antiquarian, one of those who, though highly gifted, only get half way to fame, for lack of persistence in one fur row. Jubinal scattered himself in crumbs right and left, now journalist, now histo rian, now politician. Under the empire he almost succeeded. The clock gave its warning, but never struck. They were about to make him a Senator from the P renees, where he founded a museum, when he died. He was a brave soul, who never did a wrong to the Franch language, to liberty, or to morals—an epitaph which cannot be wasted on all journalists. And now, my dear readers, let me tell yon a story of another friend of mine, who was an ass, but not a savant. His name was Pierrot The frost was silvering the trees of the Park Monceau with dull white powder, like the head of a marquis of the old re gime. It was in front of tbe Rotunda, and 9 o’clock in tbe morning. The sun hung in the fog like a globe of fire, but cast forth no beams. The wind was cruel to the poor world. People walked rapidly along the Boulevard de Cqurcelles; women vailed their faces and men drew their heads inside their collars. It was a day when a lover’s sigh would have frozen in the air. I was harrying by like everybody else. A female rag-picker, pale and famished, led by the bridle a poor little "donkey,” which seemed a hundred years old, and which dragged a poor little cart, full of the rubbish of the street—rags, broken bottles, torn papers, worn out skillets, crusts of bread, the thousand nothings which are the fortune of rag-pickers. The woman had done good work since midnight, but the ass was ready to drop. He stopped short, as if be had made up his mind to go no further. His legs trembled and threat ened a fall. He hung his head with resig nation, as if awaiting the stroke of death. Tbe sight touched and arrested me. A man would have cursed and beaten the poor beast to rouse him; the woman loolc- ed at him with an eye of motherly pity. The donkey returned her leek, as if say ing, “You see it is all over. I have done mv best for you. night after night, because I saw your misery was greater than mine. You have treated me well, sharing yonr bread with me, and your neighbors oats, when you could steal any ; but I am dy ing at last.” The woman looked at him and said gently, ‘-Gome, come, dear Pierrot, do not leave me here.” She lightened the load by taking out a basket of broken bottles. “Oome, now,” rhe said, as if talking to a child. “You can get along nicely now.” She pnt her thonlder to the wheel but the , donkey did not move. He knew he had not the strength to walk to St. Oueq, his wretched home. She still coaxed him. “How do you think we can get on this way, Pierrot ? To be sure, I could drag the cart But I can’t put you in itu and you would he ashamed to be draggeiiafter it.” The donkey raised his ears, bat no move. I was going to speak to her, when she ran to the nearest wine-shop. The ass followed her with anxious eyes; he seemed fearful that he would die without his mis tress. He was so little you would have taken him at a distance for a Pyrenean dog. He had grown gray in the haraess. A few tufts of gray hair remained here and there on his emaciated body. He looked like a mountain burned bare in many places. His resigned air showed a mind free from wordly vanities. He was far past the age where one strikes Atti tudes. He was almost transparent in j his leanness. But his face was all the more expressive. It had something almost human in its intelligence and goodness. Why had he been condemned to such suffering? was it in expiation of a former life passed in luxurious orgies? The ragpicker soon returned, bringing a piece of Dread and a piece of sugar. The ass turned and showed his teeth, like old piano keys. But although it was his break- fast time, he had no more strength in his moutlijthan in his legs. She gave him the sugar. He took it as if to oblige her, but dropped it again, and the same with the bread, “Ah! mon Dieu! What shall I do?” said the rag-picker. She thought no more of her cart. She was full of anxiety lor her friend Pierrot. “ Pierrot 1” she cried again. Two great tears came to her eyes. She took his head in her arms and kissed him like a child. The caress did what nothing else could do. The ass roused himself and brayed as in his best days. I feared it was only his swan-song. I ap proached and said to the woman, “ You seem to be in trouble.” “Oh,” she said crying, “if you kneiw how I love this beast' I saved him from the butchers four years ago. In those days I had only a hrd. I have raised seven children with my hook. The father is gone and one other, and my eldest daughter was taken away a fortnight ago. My worst grief was that I had to take one to the Foundlings—I had eleven in all—four of them died at the breast. It’s' no use; you can’t have good milk when vou work in the streets all night. This little donkey has been my consolation. He was better company than my husband. He never got drunk, and never beat me, and I never beat him. Did I, Pierrot?” The poor little beast appeared to share in the conversation. He half raised hit ears and assented. One of ray friends passed by and asked me what I was doing, “lam making a new friend.” “He may be witty, but he is not handsome.” “ 1 find him admirable, and I would like to see you in his place. He has been out since midnight. Here, you want to help me in a work of charity ?” “ With all my heart.” “Very well. Let ns buy this ass and put him on the retired list. This woman will take good care of him.” The ragpicker looked at us severely, fearing we wore laughing at her. But when she fcaw the shine of the Louis-d’or, she smiled. “How much did Pierrot cost?” “Ten francs.” “Well, you go back to the abattoir and buy another ass, and take good care of this one.” I gave my card to the woman and said good-by to her ami the donkey. The miracle was complete. The ass start ed off in high spirits, the woman pushing the cart from behind. That evening the poor woman came to me in tears. I understood at once. “Ah, sir, he is gone 1” “Poor Pierrot.” “Yes, sir, we got to St. Ouen one way or another. But when he came in sight of our hut he fell on his knees. I tried to raise I urn, but this time it was all over. My children ccme running and crying. They talked to him and kissed him. He looked at them so sadly as to break our hearts. I tell you, there are lots of people in the world not worth half so much as poor Pierrot. Think of it, he wanted to die at home after finish- but he was put off with the excuse that the moon was not in the right conjunction; to just wait until the next change, when the moon was once dark, it would be cold enough to exceed their most sanguine ex pectations. Once more they waited, but this time with impatience. The moon changed about two weekB ago, and the night, be came dark as Egypt. The anxious people waited a week tor the fulfillment of the old rascal's prophecies, and then they rose as one man and went to his abode. The scene that followed was tumultuous. The ice man Bwore he was in league with the, men on the northern lakea to plunder his neighbors; the saw-mill man said there was no doubt that he had a spite against men trying to earn an honest living; the men who had pork and grain to take to market asked why he wanted to beat them out of their hard earnings, while all agreed he had made an agreement with the To ledo clothing and whisky men to get a percentage on all the goods he sold in his neighborhood ; and they finally took the false prophet out, rode him on a rail, and then dragged him through a mud puddle. That prophet has now neither honor in his own country or any other. A Washington letter says: “The atten tion of the President was called to-day to the statements that he had declared to Senator Conkling that he would not be a candidate for renomination, and that he wouid favor Senator Conkling for the nom ination. The President remarked that he had had no conference with Senator Conk ling nor with any one else on the subject, neither had he written any letters in re gard to the matter. He further said that he had no doubt of the election of the Re publican nominee. He considered it de sirable that there should be harmony in the deliberations of the convention and in its choice of a candidate. It is the impres sion among the friends of the President that he will maintain the same policy as he did prior to his first and second nomi nation.” THE HERALD’S ALMANAC.

There are several people in this section of the country who make rails and kill hogs when the moon is “a-fullin’ ”, cut weeds when it is “a-wanin’ ”, plant pota toes in the light of the moon, because they want them to come up, build a fence at ihe same time, because they want it to stay up; put on shingles in the light of the moon, to make them stay down; who plant their “cowcumbers” before sunrise on the first of June, and sell their produce according to the ember days. The apostle of this class of agriculturists in this section is an old grizzly-bearded sage living but a few miles from the city, who has the intel lectual capacity of a Digger Indian, united to a loud-mouthed confiaentness that car ries conviction to his disciples. Jast fail the old man studied up the signs, felt the moss on the trees, took no tice of the way pigeons were lighting out for the South, peered in the muskrat’s holes, and then announced with tbe calm assurance of an oracle, that we were going to have a winter so co'd that we would think the Greenlanders had gotten hold of the isothermal line and twisted it arouud, giving us their end of it. “Yes, sir,” said old Weatherwise; “it’s a-goin’ to be a regular old stinger, an’ no mistake. It’ll set in cold airly, about the tost quarter of the moon in October, and keep on a-gelting colder until just afore the moon fulls in January it’ll be so tarna tion cold that coal oil will have to be sold by the chunk, and you kin buy whiskey by the plug.” And his hearers straightway departed from him, filled with the idea that a new glacial period was at hand. They heaped up their wood-piles until they could not see over the tops thereof, they raised small mountains over their potato holes, they wasted their substance in buying Ulster overcoats, and the stock of whisky they laid in enabled a liquor dealer in this city to make his wife a present of a seal-skin suit and a diamond bracelet Thus fortified, they sat down and waited, sneering at their less provident neighbors, a good deal alter the fashion that old Fath er Noaii chuckled over the way those fel lows slipped who did not prepare an ark of shittim wood at the time of the extraor dinary precipitation, which lasted forty days and forty nights. At first the weather started in very brash, and thev were delighted. Then it softened up a little anil resolved itself into a sort of mild, subtropical winter, which, as it spread itself out over weeks, began to disgust them. When Christmas dawned, fair as a May morning, they felt as if they should be heard, and the mail who had built a hig ice-house by the river, and in vested all liis money in that and ice-plows, stepped around to old Weatherwise to ask what he meant by thus trifling with their feelings and interests; if he was thus going to run this weather business, he must do it, and not fool around iu tins absurd manner. Old WestherwiseannihUatedhim with— “Now, any fool’d know better' than to expect cold weather afore Christmas. Just you wait till the days begin to length en, ss the old sayin’ is.” They were forced to be satisfied with this, but went off ^rambling. New Year’s dawned even’ brighter than Christinas, and then the chap who nad bought a bar rel of aloohol to serve aa a beverage in the cold days, went to the old man in rage, SCHEDULE TO FI.OKIDA.
