Important to Foreign Born Citizens. The following letter, eaj s the Memphis Bulletin, has been handed us by IlunaeF. llill, E*q., who has heretofore obtained passports for many of our naturalized citizens, who wish to visit Europe. It will be seen that they will not be entirely safe in relying upon their naturalization for exemjtion from military seivice dur ing the existing war: Department of State, i Washington, May 17, 1859. / To Mr. Felix LeClerc, Memphis, Tenn. : Sir : Your letter of the 13lh iust. has been received. In reply I have to state that it is understood that the French gov ernment claims military service from all natives of France who may be found within its jurisdiction. Y’our naturaliza tion in this country will not exempt you from that claim if you should voluntarily repair thither. I am, sir, your obedient servant, LEWIS CASS. Texas. The Galveston News, of the 19th inst., says: From our exchanges, it would appear that the rain of the Bth was gen ral throughout the State; and though iu cer i tain locations it sent the streams boom i ing, and did some little damage, yet, as a general thing, it was in the highest de ; gree beneficial to the growing croj s. The wheat already harvested has shown j a yield quite as large, if not larger, than usual; corn is doing finely, and cotton has boiled, defying the ravages of the supposed disastrous frosts of Kt month. We are now enjoying fine growing weath er, and everything looks prosperous. The San Antonio Texan, of the lClh, says: We regret to learn that Gen. Twiggs is still very a;ck, but it is believed that h.s disease is assum.ng a more favorable character. The San Antonio Herald learns from a letter from Fredericksburg that four horse thieves were recently caught and shot or buDg in Mason county, some thirty or forty miles from that place. Modern War. A writer in Blackwood’s Magagine, says : A battle now with a hundred thousand determined soldiers on each side would be the most frightful butchery within a short space of time ever beheld. The Morale of the best troops will not support the sight of more than a certain propor tion of their number put hors du combat. There are good armies that continue an engagement until a quarter of their men are killed and wounded before either s;de gives way. They may be called famous armies, indeed, when they stand more than that. At Inkermann, if I remember well, nearly or quite one half of the Eng lish troops engaged were slain or disabled, and still the fight was maintained. But it is a case to which few parallels are to be found, and the English soldier is dis tinguished above all others for that par ticular kind of courage, for the extraor dinary tenacity and nerve which prevents his knowing when he is beaten, and ren ders him so dangerous a foe. Probably modern improvements in weapons and ammunition will not cause much greater loss of life in battle than formerly, but the work will be done in a quarter of the time, and the beaten party will suffer more in retreat. New Style of Envelopes. The Postmaster General has under consideration the propriety of adopting in the preparation of stamped envelopes a new style, just coming into use. The Constitution says these envelopes are so prepared that black lines on the inside of the back of the envelope, and invisible from without, become patent on the front when the envelope is pressed, and serve as ruled lines to guide the superscription. The additional expense of these envelopes, which are gotten up in superior style, is trifling, and their convenience has com mended them to the attention of the de partment. The Utica Observer announces the ap proaching marriage of Mr. John llecnnn, the “Beuecia Boy.” “to a beautiful young lady of high position, socially and aristo cratically, who has been regarded by the artists of Cincinnati with much admira tion : who has great talents, and writes a great deal for various periodicals. She was born in a soldier’s barracks, aud ed ucated as a ‘Soldier’s Daughter.’ This was a case, on both sides, of love at first sight. Some bloodthirsty brothers, how ever, havo sworn to bar the marriage, and the young lady is closely watched; but there is no doubt of the ‘Benicia Boy’ aud the -Military Star’ being mar ried, in spite of all these pugilistic dis plays by her Porkopolis admirers.” An Old Man In Love. In Albany, an old gentleman, worth some half a million of dollars, fell despe rately in love with his servant girl. He proposed and was accepted ; but the old gentleman's children, learning how mat ters stood, threatened him with a berth in the Lunatic Asylum. He became alarmed at Ibis, finally told the girl “it couldn’t be did.’’ Young lady hears the announcement, and then talks of “cold pizen” and blasted hopes. She consults a lawyer, and threatens to make Rome howl. Her lawyer brings suit for breach of promise, and, to get out of the scrape, the old gentleman pays $2,500. Protestantism In France. M. Guizot presided recently at the yearly meeting of the French Protestant Bible Society in Paris. In his address he said that iu 1858, sixty, and in 1859, fifty Protestant parishes hud incorporated themselves with the society, and only a Tew now remained strangers to it. The receipts had risen from 37,000 to 45,000 francs; and whereas in 1855-’56, only 7,000 Bibles had been distributed ; 13,000 had been distributed in 1858-’o9. How a Printer Rose. The Lincolnshire (Eng ) Times says: “William Henry Adams, E-q., of Boblon, in this country, the new Attorney General for the oolony of Iloog Kong, has ascen ded the social scale to bis present position thus: compositor, render, reporter, sub editor, editor and newspaper proprietor, barrister, member of Parliament, colonial attorney general. He is an example un der our own eyes of what a man of mod erate abilities and a fair share of industry and energy may accomplish in this much abused aristocratic England of ours.”
