Madrid, October 12.—Later details of the revolutionary outbreak at Ferroll, says the gabrison of the fortress and crew of the Spanish war steamer Majerdo continue to withstand the overtures of the rebels and remain faithful to the government, notwithstanding the Insurgents had suc ceeded in gaining possession of the gun boats which are anchored in the harbor. They also obtained possession of the light house and imprisoned the keeper. By these means they have closed the port so that government reinforcements cannot reach the place by sea. When the Minister of the Colonies an nounced the facts in the Cortes, the Al phonists and Republican deputies took oc casion to disavow any complicity of their partisans with the movement, and declared their sympathy with the government as against the Insurgents. FRANCE. Napoleon Leaving Paris Postal Treaties. Paris, October 12.—The announcement late last night that Prince Napoleon hud left Paris in obedience to the order of the Government, was premature. His notice to depart directed him to leave at noon to day ; but not having complied therewith at 12 1-2 o'clock, be was waited upon by the Secretary of the Prefect of the police and two agents of the Government, with orders for him to follow them toward Switzerland. The Prince thereupon left tho city. The Princess Clothilde volunta aily accompanied him. The new postal treaty between France and the United States has been negotiated. It fixes letter postage at eight cents for one third ol an ounce, uud newspaper postage, which was eight cents, is reduced to three cents. Registered letters und transmission of patterns are also provided lor. ORE AT BRITAIN. Storm on the English Coast. London, October 12.—A severe storm has prevailed on the coast the past twen ty-four hours. Several disasters to ship ping in the British channel are reported. There are not only tailors, masons, and carpenters among the birds, but there are barbers also. The Toucan, a very queerly-shaped but beautifully-colored bird of South America, is a barber. Not that he finds it necessary to shave. His large beek, four or five inches long, has neither hair nor feathers, so that he has no mustache to trim. Rut it is upon his short tail that the Toucan practices his art. Like all other birds, he is provided by nature with anew coat ef feathers every year. As soon as the tail-feathers are fully grown, Mr. Toucan selects the longest pair, and, using his beak for acissers, care fully trims away the plumage from each side of the quills. Mrs Toucan, not wish ing to be out-done by her mate, does the same thing. And then doubtless both Mr. and Mrs. Toucan feel as well satisfied as if they had employed the most cele brated of court hair-dressers Perhaps they pride themselves far more on the two poor quills from which they have stripped the chief beauty, than on all their pretty plumage ol deep rose-color, orange and black MACON, GA., MON DA Y, OCTOBER 11. 1872. The Freuch cooks of Nsw York have recently formed an association under the name of the Cosmopolitan Culinary As sociation of the Stale of New York. Their staled object is to form a protective alli ance for the purpose of reducing the pe riod of labor in the kitchen to four-teen hours a day and to gather into one inter est all the cooks of the United Stntos of all nationalities and finally thoseef the whole civilized world. If this idea should suc ceed, the old adage of “ too many cooks will spoil the broth ” will no longer hold true. It is seriously proposed that the lamp posts in New York and Brooklyn shall be painted w bite, lest travelers run against them and injure them when they are light ed up at night; that is. uuless there is sud den improvement in tin) quality of the gas. There is a picture in Siam painted by a French artist, whe died in that country. It represents suspended from tree to tree, high up in the air, a bridge of monkeys, hanging together by their tails and arms. There is a stream o( water below them, and in it a huge crocodile is socn looking up at the monkeys, much as a cat looks at a fish. The monkeys, knowing they are sate, have put their thumbs to their noses and are wriggling their fingers at the croc odile, as much as to suy, " Don’t you wish you may ?” Change of Schedule.

The sturdy farmers knows too well the comfort that await him at the ISAACS HOUSE. To answer otherwise than affirmatively to the above mentioned question.
