New York. Jan. 15th.— 1 The New York ribune's special Washington correspondent ales, that a private letter from a trustwor orthy source in Paris states that the legis- live bodies of the French Empire will as- rab'.e about tbe 18th; that the Emperor in s opening address will express amicable id peaceful sentiments towards theGovern- iim nt the United States; and that unless, wanwhile, the relations jot the two countries “come hostile and menaces on the question lienor are indulged in he will promise to acuate Mexico as promptly as practicable. In tbe House of Representatives on Mon- v, Mr. Smith, (Rep.) of Kentucky, offered Jie following resolution, which was agreed 11, sn/reil, That the President communicate this House if. in his opinion, not incom- mlible with the public interests, any corres- mndnnce or other information in possession 1 tlie Government in regard to the kidnap ing of i lie child of an American lady in the itv o! Mexico by tbe usurper of that repub- ;i\ Mi-called Emperor, under the pretense if making such child a prince; and whether he United States has been asked to interfere, viib a view to have the child restored to its rents, and what action, if any, has been aki n upon tbe subject. Young Iturbide, the youth in question, is native of Georgetown, District of Colura- a. and the son of Miss Green, who married to the old imperial family of Mexico. Oglethorpe University.—We are pleased learn from the Milledgeville Union that tie exercises of Qglethorpe University will resumed to-day. The Union says : ■ i addition to the regular Collegiate course e will be an irregular and scientific de triment ; also a preparatory and academical ebool. Without disparaging the usefulness ot tbe dead languages, it is evident that many ot our young men have lost so much time and means by the war, they can only afford to spend a 3bort time in such studies as will speedily fit them for business. A large portion must study book-keeping; must by all means, learn agricultural chem istry, geology, mineralogy, engineering, and buch other scientific brancoes as will enable tjiem to develope the valuable agricultural ipd mineral resources of our State, and build ,)ur railroads and manufacturing establish ments. Our mineral wealth promises to equal that of any other State, and is slum bering in the bowels of the earth for lack of intelligent enterprise amongst us. As we have lost so much by the recent struggle, let us qualify our young men to open up these hidden treasures of gold, silver, copper, iron, coal anu petroleum, that we confidently hope will yet restore Georgia more than her t inner wealth and prosperity. In lit m A Little Boy Locked in a Trunk.—An , accident of a novel character happened a few days since to a little boy four years old, son of one of our citizens, which should be a warning to children who play hide and seek. Three or four children, white and black, were playing “hide,” in a room where there was a large empty trunk. One of the little negroes put tbe little four year old boy in the trunk. The top fell down, and, having a spring lock, caught the little fellow fast and tight. The children got frightened and gave tbe alarm. Both mother and father weie absept. A ne gro woman, who displayed great presence of mind, on hearing the facts, got an axe an® Burst the trunk open. The little boy was »:escued in a suffocated state. A few minutes [From the New Haven Journal, Jan. 8.] One of the most daring and successful robberies we have ever been called upon to chronicle occurred on Saturday evening on tbe express train from New York Vo Boston, which leaves the fanner city at eight and ar rives here at eleveir o’clock. The facts, so far as we have been able to learn them, are these: In tbis train there was an iron car belonging to the express company—the only one on the road—in which were placed all the express bundles, and, on this occasion, three small iron safes, weighing about one hundred and eighty pounds each, one of which belonged lo the Harnden Express Com pany, and the other two to the Adams Ex press Com puny, all containing a large amount of treasure. Tbe car has two doors, one on each side, which, after the proper ty was placed in it, were locked with padlocks. The car was then run out from the depot, where it remained about twenty-five or thirty minutes, when it was started on its passage to Boston. Ou its arrival at tbis city, conductor Patterson observed one of the doofs of tbis car a little opened, and in an iustant knew that something was wtong, as it is the rule of the company not to open tbe car at all until its arrival at Hartford An examination of tbe car and its contents was immediately made, when it was found that the door bad been pried open by an iron bar, the padlock broken off, and that the robbers had entered the car, and by means of an iron bar forced open the doors of the two sates belonging to the Adam9 Express Company, and taken out all their contents. They had tom open all. the packages, appropriating to themselves all the contents except those of two packages, leaving the envelopes and waybills strewn about on the floor. There were about a hundred euvelopes.tbus opened, but of the amount they contained we have not yet learned. Of the two packages the contents of which they did not take, on con tained eighty bills of $1,000 each, the same being greenbacks; tbe other was a roll about twp inches in diameter, containing $50,000 in five-twepjy bonds, making in all $130,000 which they left behind. These were only two packages out of about one huudred that were overhauled- When and where the robbers got into the car is unknown; but it seems impossible that it should have been entered at any other place than New York, as the train stops but a few moments at any station after leaving that city till its arrival here. It is thought probable that they got into tbe car while it was waiting on the track to be bitched on and taken down to the tunnel. The scene in tbe car when opened at this city must have been quite singular. The floor wa9 strewn with valuables which the thieves had rejected or overlooked. United States bonds ' in considerable number lay around loose: a bag of pennies was picked up; a quantity ot silver foil was strewed upon the floor, and the envelopes and wrappers of the valuable packages stolen were scattered about. Seeing something apparently more substantial than the other empty wrappers, a gentleman asked, “Isn’t that money?” and picked up $80,000 if) one handful. The thieves left a dark lantern, and they took one article which may assist in their deiection^-a small white valise or bag, which contained a few clothes belonging lo an express messen ger, and which they opened, emptied and carried of with them, probably using it to re move their treasure. It is reported that $58,000 of the treasure taken was in gold. Internal Revenue Officers in tfie South and. tlie Teat Gatii. The Secretary of the Treasury, on the 8th inst-, communicated the following statement ot ene of his assessors of the internal reve nue, showing the difficulty of finding officers who can take the test oath: Assessor’s Office U. S. Internal Revenue, Y Third District of Georgia, Augusta, Dec. 20, 1865.) Sir:—I am constrained to write you in relation to the repeal or modification of the test oath so far as it relates to the internal revenue officers, at least assessors, in the Southern States. I have labored assiduously to find competent men who could take the oath for assistants, and have to report that I tailed to find any such except in a single in stance, in my district, comprising twenty- three of 'he most populous counties in the State of Georgia. I have organised my dis trict by allowing my assistants to take tbe oath of office and allegiance and proceed to the discharge of their duties, trusting to Con gress to provide for their payment as directed by tbe Commissioner of luternal Revenue. Many of the men are much reduced in cir- stances by the war, aud stand in imperative need of their pay, in order to provide for their families; aud, indeed, some ot them will be compelled soon to resign their places in order to engage in some business that will yield them ready money on which lo live. I am satisfied that unless something is done in this matter immediately, I shall be unable to assess the lax in my district. If Congress would so modify the oatb, as far as it relates to officers of the Internal Revenue and Po9t Office Departments down here, I am sure it would be regarded everywhere, and prove to be a patriotic measure, in which both North and South are equally interested. Unless something ot the kind is done 1 am at a los3 to know what we are to do. Respectlully, J. Bowles, Assessor Third District of Georgia- Hon. Hugh McCulloch, Secretary of the Treasury. Letter from Ex-Governor Allen, of Louisiana.—The following are extracts from a letter dated City of Mexico, December 3d: “I am endeavoring to make an honest liv ing as editor, but find it hard work. I have no assistant, and but two printers, but I can not complain; I make a good living, and that is as much as I need or expect. Gen. Shelby’s Adjutant is one of my printers. ‘Our people are well satisfied with this country. Generals Price and Shelby, Gover nor Harris, of Tennessee, and Perkins, of Louisiana, are at Cordova, settling on Gov ernment lands- Magruder, Maury and Gen. Reynolds are in the employ of the Emperor, ana doing very well. Agents are now being sent to Europe and the United States to pro mote colonization. It is the best country in the world for our people, and we expect large emigration. “The empire is an accomplished fact; law Ind order is being restored, and the Juarista are on their last legs. Twenty thousand French troops are on their way to Mexico, and soon all the robbers and guerillas will be cleaned out. The climate Is delightful, the lands rich, and money plentiful. It is the promised land of the Southerners. “I would not accept tbe position pf Gov ernor of Louisiana if tendered to me; I pre fer exile. H. N.

Females, owing to tbe peculiar and important re lations which they sustain/their peculiar organiaa* tion, and the offices they perform, are subject to many sufferings and ailments peculiar to the sex- Freedom from these contributes in no small degree to their happiness and welfare, for none can be hap py who are iU. Not only so, but no one of these va rious female complaints can long be suffered to run on without involving the general health of the indi vidual, and ere long producing permanent sickneaa and premature decline. Nor is it pleasant to consult a physician for the relief of these delicate affeotions, aad only upon the most urgent necessity wills true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm as to do this. The sex will then thank us for placing in their hands simple specifics which will be found effica cious in relieving and curing almost every one of those troublesome complaints peculiar to tbe sex. HELMBOLD’S EXTRACT OF BUCHU. Hundreds suffer on in silence, and hundreds of others apply vainly to druggists and doctors, who either merely tantalize them with the hope of a cure or apply remedies which make them worse. I would not wish to assert anything that would do injustice to the afflicted, but I am obliged ta say that although it may be produced from excessive exhaustion of the powers of life, by laborious employment, unwhole some air and food, profuse menstruation, the use of tea and coffee, and frequent childbirth, it is far of- tener caused by direct irritation, applied to the mu cous membrane of the vagina itself. When reviewing the causes of these distressing complaints, it is most painful to contemplate the at tendant evils consequent upon them. It is but sim ple justice to the subject to enumerate a few of the many additional causes fc wliich so largely affect the life, health, and happiness of woman in all classes of society, and which, consequently, affect, more or less directly, the welfare of the entire human fam ily . The mania that exists for precocious education and marriage, causes the years that nature designed for corporeal development to be wasted and pervert ed in the restraints of dress, the early confinement of school, and especially in the unhealthy excite ment of the ball-room. Thus, with the body half clothed, aud the mind unduly excited by pleasure, perverting in midnight revel the hours designed by pature for sleep and rest, the work of destruction is half accomplished- In consequence of this early strain upon her sys tem, unnecessary effort is required by the delicate votary to retain her situation in school at a later day, thus aggravating the evil. When op© excite ment is over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbidly sensitive to impression, while the now con stant restraint of fashionable dress, absolutely for bidding the exercise indispensable to the attainment and retention of organic health and strength ; the exposure to night air ; the sudden change of tem perature ; the complete prostration produced by ex-' cessive dancing must, of necessity, produce their le gitimate effect. At last, an early marriage caps the clijpax of misery, and the unfortunate one, hitherto so utterly teg^rdless of the plAin dictates aud re monstrances of her delicate nature, becomes an un willing subject of medical treatment- *§ tout a truthful picture of the experience of thousands of our young women. v Long before the ability to exercise the functions of the generative organs, they require an education ot their peculiar nervous system ; composed of what fs called the tissue, which is, in common with the female breasts and lips, evidently under the control of mental emotiops apd associations at an early pe riod of life ; and, as we shall subsequently see, these emotions, when excessive, lead, long before puberty, to habits which sap the very life of their victims ere nature has self-completed their development. For Female Weakness and Debility, Whites or Leucorrhcea, Too Profuse, Exhausting, Too Long Continued Periods, for Prolapsus and Bearing Down, or Prolapsus Uteri,we offer the most perfect specific known : HelmboUVs Compound. Extract of JBuchu. Directions for use, diet, and advice accompany.

H. GREGG. M. D. f Graduate of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York; fonnerly Assistant Physician in trie Blackwell’s Island Hospitals. CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP Has produced a revolution in Medicine. What may seem almost incredible is, that many dis eases hitherto considered hopelessly incurable are fie quently cured in a few days or weeks; and we cheer roily invit e the investigations of the liberal minded and scientific to cures which have no parallel at tjie pres- scut day. During the past five years we have contended with obstacles and overcome opposition as herculean os were ever encountered by any reformers. RAPIDITY OF CURE. Some say, “Your cures are too quick,” while others doubt tbeir permanence, and think that diseases con only be cured by the “alow, recuperative process of Nature.” This is our reply: In health, the body, like a well- balanced scale, is in a state of eqqlUbriam. But when, Irom any cause, down goes one side of the scale, we have the effects of disease. What is requisite, is to re store the normal balance of tbe scale. CONSTITUI/ION LIFE SYRUP Is a positive and specific remedy for all diseases origt nating from an impure state of the Blood, and for al (hereditary} diseases transmitted from parent to child PARALYSIS. It is so universally admitted that Constitution Life Syrnp is the only effective means of restoration in the various forms of Paralysis, that we need not reiterate that it is emphatically the Great-Life-giving Power. DYSPEPSIA. Indigestion, Weight at Stomach, Flatulence, Live Complaint, want of Appetite, Bad Breath, Constipation, Billiousness. SCROFULA. Struma, King’s Evil. Glandular Swellings, Erysipelas, Ulceration, Balt Rheum. This taint (hereditary and acquired), filling life with untold misery, is, by all usual medical remedies, in- cnrable. RHEUMATISM. [Arthritis], Lumbago, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Gout, Tic Doloreaux. If there is any disease in which the Constitution Life Syrup is a sovereign, it is in Rhenmalism aud its kindred affections. The most intense pains are almost instantly alleviated—enormous swellings are reduced. Cases, chronic or vicarious, of twenty or forty years’ standing, have been cured by us CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP Purges the system entirely from ail the evil effects o Mercury, removing the Bad Breath, aud curing the Weak Joints and Rheumatic Pains which tbe use of Calomel is sure to produce. It hardens Spongy Gums, and secures the Teeth as firmly asever. CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP. Eradicates, root and branch, all Eruptive Diseases of the Skin, like Ulcers, Pimples, Blotches, and all other difficulties of his kind, which so much disfigure the outward appearance of both males and females, often making them a disgusting object to themselves and their trieuds FOR ALL FORMS OF ULCERATIVE DISEASES, Either of the Nose, Throat, Tongue, Spine, Forehead, or Scalp, no remedy baa ever proved its equal. Moth Patches upon the female face, depending upon a diseased action of the Liver, are very unpleasant to the young wife and mother. A few bottles of Consti tution Life Syrup will correct the secretion and remove the deposit, which is directly under the skin. Diseases of the Liver, giving rise to Languor, Dizzi ness, Indigestion, Weak Stomach, or an ulcerated or cancerous cbuditiCiV of that organ, accompanied with burning or other unpleasant symptoms, \yill be re lieved by the use of CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP. As a General Blood-Purifying Agent, the Life Syrup stands unrivalled by any preparation In the world. THE RICH AND POOR Are liable to the same diseases. Nature and science have made the Constitution Life Syrup for the benefit of all. PURE BLOOD Produces healthy men and women; and if the consti tution is neglected in youth, disease and early death ie the result. Do not delay when the means are so near at hand, aud within the reach of all. CONSTITUTION LIFE SYRUP Is the poor man'9 friend, and the rich man’s blessing. WILLIAM H. GREGG, M.
