Savannah, Ga., February 24,1871. Messrs. Herring, Farrel & Sherman, 251 Broadway,New York: ^ Gents.—The large and destructive fire of February22nd, consumed the building occn pied by na. We were using one of your Her ring’s Patent Champion Safes, made sixteen years ago. It contained Seven Hundred Dol lars in money, our books and valuable papers. We were unable to get the -eafe open until eighteen hours after the fire. We found the contents in excellent condition; the only injury was the binding of the books, drawn by the steam. This test of the fire proof quality of your safes was a severe one, as all can testify who saw the fire. The amount of combusti ble materials of the building itself, added to tbe cotton and other goods stored in it, made as hot a fire as often occurs. Respectfully yours; BELL & HULL. W. M. DAVIDSON’S LETTER. Savannah, Ga., February 24, 1871. Messrs. Herring, Farrel Sf Sherman, 251 Broadway, New York: Gents.—I had one of your Herring’s Patent Champion Safes in the fire ef Wednesday night. February 22d. It remained in the ru ns thirty-six hours before it could be opened. My stock of goods (being a wholesale liquor mer chant) made a very hot fire, thoroughly testing the quality of the safe. It contained some money, my books and papers two gold watches two silver goblets, and other valuables All of them are preserved in tine order. The enters of the books are drawn by’ the steam. It was a genuine test, and your Champion Safe has done me excellent service. The fire was one of the hottest that ever took place in this city. Truly yours, VV. M.

Feb. 14,1071 tf. After the hundred days prepara tion Napoleon advanced to the Low Countries, to meet the allies, again banded together for his overthrow. He attacked Blucher at Ligny, and defeated him,—and so hard pressed was this veteran that he was over thrown, and lay entangled under his horse in the darkness, while the French cavalry passed twice over his body, without observing him ; he then extricated himself and joining his troupo leireuted 10 YVayres.— Ney had been less successful at Quatre Bras in his attack on Wel lington, but he had retired in good order, and effected a junction with Napoleon, and (he two together moved down on Waterloo where the duke had taken up his position—en tirely separate from the Ptussian army. To understand the field of battle imagine two slightly elevated semi circular ridges or rather slopes, a half mile apart, curving gently for ward, somewhat in the form ol a parenthesis, ( ) and you have the po sition of the two armies. On the summit of one of these slopes was drawn up the French army, and on the oilier that of the English and allies. The night of the 17dtof June was dark and stormy—the the rain fell in torrents and the taro armies lay down in the tall tye drenched with rain, to wait tbe morning that was to decide tbe fate of Europe and of Napoleon. From the ball-room at Brussels many En glish officers had been summoned in haste to the field, and shivering and coltl were compelled lo pass the night in mud and rain, in their ele gant attire. The artillery had cut up the ground, so that ihe mud was ankle-deep, while the tall rye lay crushed and matted beneath the feet of the soldiers. The morning of the 18th opened with a drizzling rain, and the two armies benurned with cold and soatdng wet, rose from their damp beds to the contest. Eighty thousand French soldiers were seer* moving in close, massive columns on the crest of the height, as they took up their several positions for the day. After all was completed, Bonaparte rode along the lines in the highest spirits, confident of suc cess, and exclaimed, ‘now to break- last,’ galloped away, while ihe shout “rice la Empereur/” that rolled after him shook the field on which they siood, and fell with ominious tones on the allied army. Two hundred and sixty two canon lined the ridge like a wall of death, ready to open the fire on their enemy. At eleven o’clock the signal of attack was given, and the columns moved in beautiful order down the slope. Welling ton’s lines occupied two miles in ex tent, with the right resting on the Chateau Hougomont, which from the defense it furnished wa3 equal to a re doubt. The centre was protected by a farm-house, La Haye Sainte, while the left stretched out into the open field. First Jerome Bonaparte led a column of six thousand men down on Hougomont, who in the face of a most destructive fire pushed up to the very walls of the chateau, and thrust their bayonets through the door. But the Coldstream Guards held the courtyard with in vincible obstinacy, and he was com pelled at length lo retire, after leav ing 1400 men in a little orchard be side the walls, where it does not seetu so many men could be laid. In a short time the battle became general along the whole line and he roic deeds were performed on every rod of the contested field. The heavy French cavalry came thun dering down on the steady English squares, that had already been wast ed by the heavy artillery, and strove with almost superhuman energy to break them. Driven to desperation by their repeatedly foiled attempts, they at length stopped their horses and cooly walked them round and round squares, and whenever a man tell, dashed in vain valor. Whole ranks went down like smitten grass before the headlong charges of cav alry and infantry. In the center the conflict at length became awful, for there the crisis of the battle was fixed. Wellington stood under a tree while the houghs were crashing with (he canon shot overhead, arid nearly his whole guard smitten down by his side, anxiously watching the progress of the fight. His brave squares, torn into fragments by bombs and ricochet shot, still re fused to yield one foot of ground. Napoleon rode through the ranks, cheering on the exhausted columns ol infantry and cavalry, that rent the heavens with the shout of “ Vice r Empereur/” and dashed with un paralleled recklessness on the baj’o- nets ol the English. The hero of Wagram, and Boro zdina, and Austerliiz, and Marengo, and Jena, enraged at the stubborn obstinacy of the British, rode over the field, and was still sure of vic tory. Wellington, seeing that he could not much longer sustain the desperate charge of the French bat talions, wiped the sweat from his anxious forehead and exclaimed '•Oh that Blutcher or night would come!” Thus from eleven until four did the battle rage with san guinary ferocity, and still around the centre it grew more awlul every moment. The mangled cavalry staggered up to the exhausted Brit ish squares, which, though dimin ished and hleedinu in every part, seemed rooted to the ground they stood upon. The heroic R/cton had fallen at the head of his brigade, while his sword was flashing over his head. Ponsonby had gone down on the hard-fought field, and terror and slaughter were on every side ; still the charge of French cavalry on the centre was terrific. Disre garding the close and murderous fire of the British batteries, they rode steadily forward till they came to the bayonet’s point, and then firmly turned their horses heads against the barrier hut in vain—pierced through, and broken, they were rolled hack over the field, but rallied again and again to the charge, and prodigies of valor were wrought, and heroes fell at every discharge. The rent and trodden field ran blood, yet through the deep mud the determined foe- men pressed on : while out ot the smoke of every volley arose from the French lines the shout of “Five l’ Empereur /” CHARGE OF THE OLD GUARD. At length a dark object was seen to emerge from the distant wood, and soon an army of 30,000 men deployed into the field, and began lo march straight for the scene of conflict. Blucher and his Prussians had come up hut no Grouchy, who had been left to hold them in check followed after. In a moment Napo leon saw that he could not sustain the attack of so many freih troops, if once allowed to form a junction with the allied forces and so he de termined to stake his fate on o»e bold cast, and endeavored to pierce the allied centre with a grand ci’arge of the Old Guard—and thus throw ing himself between the two armies, fight them separately. For this pur pose the Imperial Guard was called up, which had remained inactive during the whole day, and divided into immense columns which were to meet at the British centre. That under Reille no sooner entered the fire than it disappeared like mist. The other was placed under Ney, the “bravest of the brave,” and the order to advance given. Napoleon accompanied them part way down the slope, and halting for a moment in a hoilw addressed them in his fiety, impetuous manner. He told them the battle rested with them, and that he relied on their valor. “Vice V Empereur/” answered him with a shout that was heard all over the field of battle. He then left them to Ney, who ordered the charge. Bonaparie has been blamed for not heading this charge himself, but he knew he could not carry that Guard so far, nor hold them so long before the artillery, as Ney. The moral power the latter carried with him, Irom the reputa tion he had gained of being the “bravest of the brave,” was worth a whole division. Whenever a col umn saw him at their head, they knew that it was to be victory or annihilation. With the exception of Macdonald, I do not know a general in the two armies who could hold his soldiers so long in the very face of destruction as he. The whole Continental struggle exhibited no sublitner spectacle than this last effort of Napoleon lo save his sinking empire. Europe had been put upon llto plains of Water loo to be battled foi. The greatest military energy and skill the world possessed had been tasked to the ut most during the day. Thrones were tottering on the ensanguined field, and the shadows of fugitive kings flitted through ihe smoke of battle. Bonaparte’s star trembled in ihe ze nith—now blazing out in its ancient splendor, now suddenly paling be fore his eyes. At length when the Prussians appeared on the field, he resolved to stake Europe on one bold throw. He committed himself to France and Ney, and saw his em pire rest on a single charge. The intense anxiety \\ ilh which he watch ed the advance of that column, and the terrible suspense he suffered when the smoke of battle wrapped it from sight and the utter despair of his great heart when the cur. am lift ed over a fuguive army, and the despairing shriek rung on every side, “la garde recule," “la garde recule,” make us for the moment forgi-t all the carnage in sympathy with his distress. Ney felt the pressure of the im mense responsibility on his brave heart, and resolved not to prove un worthy of the great trust committed to his care. Nothing could be more imposing than the movement of that grand column to the assault. That guard had never yet recoiled before a human foe, and the allied forces beheld with awe its turn and terrible advance to the final charge. For a moment the batteries stopped plav- ingand the firing ceased along the British lines, as without the beating of a drum, or the blast of a bugle, to cheer their steady courage, they moved in dead silence over the plain. The next moment the arlillery open ed. and the head of that gallant ool umn seemed to sink into the earth. Rank after rank went down, yet they neither stopped nor faltered Dissolving spuadrons, and whole battalions disappearing one after an other in the destructive fire, affected not their steady courage. The ranks closed up as before, and each tread- ng over his fallen comrade, pressed firmly on. The horse which Ney rode fell under him, and he had scarcely mounted another before it also sank to the earth. Again and again did that unflinching man feel his steed sink down, ’lill Jive had been shot under him. Then, with his uniform riddled wilh bullets, and his face singed nnd blackened with powder, he marched on foot with prawn sabre at the head of his men. In vain did the artillery hurl its storm of fire and lead into tbat living mass. ITp to iho vory (Xl ULlIl O * ||V/J prw m a q/j aud driving the artillerymen from their own pieces, pushed on through the English lines. But at that mo ment a tile of soldiers who had lain flat on the ground, behind a low ridge of earth, suddenly rose and poured a volley in their faces. An other and another followed, ’till one broad sheet ot flame rolled on their bosoms, and in such a fierce ar.d unexpected flow, that hut. at: cour age could not withstand it. They reeled, shook, staggered back, then turned and fled. Ney was borne back in the refluent tide, and burned over the field. But lor the crowd of fugitives that forced him on, he would have stood alone, and fallen in his footsteps. As it was, he disdained to fly. Though the whole army was flying, he formed his men into two immense squares, and endeavored to stem the terrific current, and would have done so had it not been for the thirty thousand fresh Prus sians that pressed on his exhausted ranks. For a long time these squares stood and let the artillery plow through them. But the fate of Na poleon was writ, and though Ney doubtless did what no other man in the army could have done, the de cree could not be reversed. The star that had blazed so brightly over the world, went down in blood, and the “bravest of the brave” had fought his last battle. It was worthy his great name, and the charge of the Old Guard at Waterloo, with him at their head, will be pointed to by re motest generations with a shudder. Chignons are Doomed !—At a certain fashionable wedding the other day, it was noticed that some of the belles came “in their own hair,” done up in a braid behind the ears, or twined gracefully around the head. Good-bye, horrible old monstrosity! The chignon, like many good things, has been abused. It was an invention, originally, for those who had thin or no hair, and was a small make-believe braid. Then it grew with the imagination of shopmen, and became a bag of horse hair, with a rivulet of human hair running over it. Bald-Headed New York Editors. The, following curious lot of per sonalty is from the Troy Budget: It is a curious fact that nearly all the leading editors of New York City are bald-headed. I have prepared the following statement, giving the name, paper and cause of .baldness, with a great deal of care, and you can rely on its correctness James G. Bennett, Herald—Exs cessive worship of the Herald. Horace Grecly, Tribune—wear ing his white hat to much. Joe. Howard, Star—M. T. Jugg ler. Manton Marble, World, High toned Democracy. Charles A. Dana, Sun—Intense rays of the Sun. Brick Pomeroy, Democrat—Ear ly piety and over-work. Wm. C. Bryant, Post —Old Age. Geo. W. Jones, Times—General aggravation. Wm. C. Prince, Journal of Com merce—Too much gunny bags. The other metropolitan editors, so far as I know, have their hair on their heads where the wool ought to grow. After announcing the marriage of Mr. John Dog to Mies Sallie Day, a social country editor remarked that in the above marriage there was nothing re markable, as it was only fulfilling the old adage, that “every dog has his day.”
