The area of low barometer in the latter region has apparently extended northward, and the pressure has fallen decidedly on Lake. Superior. The barometer has risen on the coast of Texas, but has fallen from Florida northward. Areas of high barometer are central over Ohio and Maine. The temperatu iehas fallen from Maine to New Jersoy, and has risen from Lake Erie to Illinois and northwards. High easterly wind*,- w»u» cloud and rain, continue on the immediate New England coast. Cloud and rain are again re ported from South Carolina to Louisiana. Lo cal rains have fallen on t':e middle Atlantic coast and from Tennessee to Minnesota. Probabilities.—The conditions are favorable for local storms to-night from Lake Superior southward to Kentuoky, and warmer weather will probably prevail on Sunday, Cloudy and threatening weather will probably ooniinue east of Louisiana,.and extend with local storms to Virginia. Local storms are also probable for Sunday throughout New England. Long Branch, Jnly 29.—The President and family are well, and will remain throughout the season.

The following are the Paris and Rome specials to the Herald, which were the subject of a brief press dispatch a few days linoe. It will be seen that we misapprehended the movement to elect a successor to Pope Pins: Paris, July 24.—Great preparations are being made at the chateau at Corte, in Corsica, for the reception of the Pope, whose arrival is daily expected. The owner of the chateau is M. Valery, who has placed it at the disposal of the Pope. Car dinal Antonelli had already several months ago arrived at an understanding with M. Valery with regard to the departure of the Pope from Rome to Corsica. The French clergy have Bet all their influence in motion in order that France should guarantee the temporal sovereignty of the Pope in Corsica. The action of the National Assembly regard ing the proposition in favor of restoring the Holy Father to his temporalities is equivalent to “ laying the motion on the table.” Rome, July 24, 1871.—The Pope may leave Rome any day. There is great excitement and bustle in the Vatican. Messengers and attend ants hurry to and fro, and the cardinals of the Papal household are almost constantly in coun cil with the Holy Father. Admittance is denied to ordinary visitors, and the persons' of the Pope’s immediate retinue observe great secrecy. Among the officers of the Papal guard there are, however, str»*’' (e whispers about the intended ^' parture 0 f"th e Pope, .Oom pervades the whole Papal household, as if some dread event were imminent. All present indications point to an intention on the part of the Pope to leave the Vatican. This step is generally attributed to the coun sels of Cardinal Antonelli and Pater Beckx, the General of the Jesnits. The Holy father, it is said, feels even now so reluctant abont leaving Rome that he may aban don the idea of .going at the last moment. The old age of the Pope and his growing fee bleness are matters of grave concern to the pre lates of Rome. The College Cardinals have represented to the Pontiff the propriety of electing a successor to be ready for the apprehended emergency and to avoid the confusion which might ensue upon the demise of the Holy Father. Measures have already been taken for the choice of the next Pope. Several cardinals are adverse to the policy of the irreconcilables and propose to choose a moderate member of the collegiate—one who is not unfriendly to Victor Emanuel—in order to bring abont a compromise between the Italion kingdom and the Papacy. Cardinal Oornillo de Pieti Is mentioned as the candidate of the majority of the collegiate. The Holy Father is going to publish a Sylla bus regarding the Italian occupation of Romo. He will declare that all temporal powerover the Roman States rightfully, belongs to him, and that it is void when held against him. Saw a BRISTOW'S BATH.

The Washington Capital, Donn Piatt’s paper, gives the following aoooont of the way in whioh OoL Bristow, the Solicitor General, was Ku- the comparative cheapness of the eosatraotion The Monroe County Fair. ^ Availing myself of the polite invitation of the Agricultural-Society of Monroe County,-1 visited the delightful town of Forsyth on Sat urday, the 29 th of Jnly, in oompany with many citizens of Bibb to see the" exposition of our neighbors of Monroe. I think i* dno to the good citizens of this lime-honored county to say that a more creditable county fair it would be hard to produoe. The stock displayed was very good—fine horses, mules, cattle, sheep and bogs—also poultry of the various species. Then the products of tho plantation, farm and gar den were as fine &31 have ever seen. The no ble ear of com—the fine sweet and Irish pota toes, the wheat, oats, rye and barley—the large and full fruited cotton stalks, all gave promise of an abundant harvest and a remunerative re ward to the industrious citizens of great old Monroe. - .... Bat I cannot forbear to mention, with the highest commendation, the department in which the ladies participated. There was their handi work in beautiful and tasteful colors—their ele gant floral tables emitting the fragrance of a thousand flowers— the fine loaves of bread and beautiful rolls—the elegantly decorated cakes— the jellies, preserves and other sweet-meats—-all graced and presided over by Middle Georgia’s beautiful and blooming girls, more attractive to us than all other earthly blessings. But we mast mention that this county con tains more genial generous hospitality than any part of tho world we havo ever had the good fortune to visit. Among those vieing for the premium cf hospitality we must mention our old friends, Captain Mobley, Gus Cabiniss, Bud Hammond, Captain Donn, Major -Bean and scores of others. The President, Colonel G. W. Adams, was at home" in the midst of the multitude. Bat wo were particularly impressed with tho urbane yot active manner of onr old friend Dr. Lawton, whose face seemed to be lit up with smiles, as he passed from table to table and stall to stall, and then realized the full re sponse which his fellow-citizens, both male and female, had made to his call upon them for a County Fair. I regret, Messrs. Editors, that the whole State could not have the same spirit infused into them that glorious old Monroe has this day displayed. . ^ isitob. Charleston Election.—Charleston holds a municipal election next Wednesday, August be ing selected by the negroes as the time because many of the whites are then absent. The whites hsvs put out a conservative ticket beaded by the name of Gen. John A. Waggoner. The ne groes have bad more trouble in getting up a ticket, and by last accounts had two in the field —one characterised as the Mackey-Mushington ticket, the other aa Squashee-Gumbo. An Irish magistrate censuring some boys for loitering in the street, said, “If everybody were to stand in the street, how could anybody get by?” “Gins’* Baby.” Almost everybody has heard of tho book called “Ginx’s Baby.” It made quite a hit at home in England. Tho following i3 an intelli gible account of it. It was written by a Sara toga correspondent of the New York Commer cial. A lady tells him what the book is—as fol lows: “WhoisGinx?” “Ginx was the father of the thirteenth baby. Ginx was poor, and becoming impatient at Mrs. Ginx’s increasing babies, after she had had the twelfth, declared that he would throw tho thir teenth off" of . Westminister Bridge.” “Did he do it?” “No, but he discovered the infant, after Mrs. Ginx had succeeded in hiding it away for sev eral days—seized it, and started for the bridge, and—” “Threw it in!” “No, the police stopped him. Ginx expostu lated ; said he didn’t want the baby; that he had twelve already at home; that ho was a poor man, and. had no use for the thirteenth Ginx. Then a Catholic nun . came along, and offered to feed it and save its life.” ‘‘ ‘And neves bring it back?’ asked Ginx. “‘Never!’ “ ‘He’s yours—to have and to old!’ And then Ginx ran back to his wife and wretched twelve children, a happy man. “What then?” “Then,”said she, “ the tug commenced. The ainN’ffirifo had to gO'&Ild nurse the baby twice a day. Father Coxen wanted to—and did—make the sign of the cross on Mm. Ginx before the baby was allowed to nurse. Mrs. Ginx told this to a Protestant friend.” “Sign of the cross, Mrs. Ginx. Oh, horrors they are making a prosely te of the baby— those atrocious Catholicssaid the friend. “ Then the Protestant clergy got hold of the scandal. The Protestant papers rioted over the matter. The clergy went to a lawyer. ‘The Catholics have forcibly distrained a Protestant baby, and are trying to make a Catholic of him —what shall we do ?’ they asked.” “Bring an action,” said lawyer Meddle, “an action of habeas corpus.” “The case went to court. Thousands of pounds were spent The newspapers talked abont the ‘Ginx-Baby Case.’ ‘Ginx’s-Baby Funds’ were collected, tho lawyers took the money, and the baby was surrendered to the Protestants. Boon the baby fond was exhausted; its nurse in vain demanded pay for nursing him, and finally one day she left the poor baby on a club-house doorstep to starve. Another humane religious society'took it'after the alms-hcnses had said they would not have it Another re ligions controversy ensued. The baby was al ways poor*^iklf starved, and neglected, wMle everybody was fighting over bis religion.” “Whatlseoame of him-r* ' “Well, after fifteen years of kicks, Of cold neglect, of ignorance, and starvation—while nil the world and the newspapers were talking about how the Catholics, had forcibly distrained a Protestant child from its doting parents—the poor, neglected, sorrowful, ignorant boy went one dark night, with not even a flickering star to see his act, went and jumped—” “Off Westminster bridge? . “The same; and at the very place where the polioeman stopped Ginx fifteen years before, as he held the little innocent cause of all tho trouble over the rolling flood.” moot: OoL Bristow had never taken a Russian bath. He had heard that it was famous for oleansing purposes, and as he wished to get the loyal odor from his person and the taste of Grant out'of his mouth, he determined -to try the Russian bath. He says that he aaoended a dim lit iron stairway and entered a small room, where he encountered an aged gentleman with snowy locks and long white beard, whom he at first mistook for the late Gideon Welles. This shocked him a little, for he was under the impression that Andy Johnson’s little lamb bad been snngly tucked away some years since in the family vault in' Connecticut. A little reflection, how ever, satisfied him that this could not be the late Gideon, from the fact that he opened his month and demanded one dollar for a ticket- The late Secretary of the Navy neve* so practical a thing in his life. Having purchased the ticket and been mo tioned to a door which be opened, he was very mnoh abashed to find himself in the presence of half a dozen muscular Germans dressed like Hans merm aid, “wit nodings on.” .oy one cf these he was shown intoa closet, where he proceeded to put himself in the ab stract by hanging his graceful garments on di vers and sundry pegs around. Then, for a sec ond or two, he stood hesitating at the door, his well-known bashful nature making it necessary to summon np all his resolution for a charge oa the Teutons. Golonel Bristow is a brave man, however, and when he makes up his mind to do anything he’s bound to do it. He has frequently been under fire, and at Shiloh was left on the field for twenty-four hours, supposed to be dead, but none of this was so trying as the entrance to the domestic circle of the native Germans in a state of nudity. He did this, and was immediately conducted by two stalwart sons of the faderland to a room that was so filled with hot steam that he could scarcely breathe or see across it Guided by the attendants, he was led to a marble slab and motioned to lie down. The marble was so hot that he immediately flopped. Thi3 stragetic movement, however, did not help Mm mnoh, for he found the maTble as dis agreeable to Ms front as it had been to his rear; so he continued to flop. To this interesting business he was left abont twenty minutes, and perspired at the mostfearfnl rate. All the fluids he had been taking daring the oampaign in Ken tucky dame out through the pores. He recog nized his various drinks as they exuded, from old Bourbon to Robertson county whisky. At the end of the twenty minutes, which our gallant Colonel thought as many hours, the at tendant returned with a bucket of hot water, two scrubbing brashes and a huge cake of com mon soap. With these he began lathering and scrubbing the eloquent gentleman from Ken tucky. To be scrubbed down in this Btyle is a little hard upon a thin-skinned, sensitive man, and the Colonel remonstrated, squirmed and struggled to no purpose, and at last, striking out from the shoulder, knocked the Teuton flat on Ms book. Our German fellow-citizen rose to his feet, as if nothing had happened, bnt evi dently used to this sort of things, and tried to smother onr legal friend with a huge sponge heavy with hot soapsuds. The Colonel pawed it away and asked if the fellow wanted to kill Mm. “Ob, we kills many beeples every day,” was the cool response. At the end of the scrubbing the Colonel was conducted to a huge tank of ice-cold water and told to get in. As he hesitated upon the brink the German suddenly inserted himself head foremost in the small of tho Colonel’s back, and sent onr Kentucky hero floundering in the water. The cold water was so pleasant that Col. B. was delighted; he disported himself like a dolphin. At the end of five minutes the Ger man, who stood on the brink with arms folded, looking like Napoleon in exile, cried out: “Now, you gomes out." “No, I won’t,” replied the Colonel. “Thi3 is the best place I’ve found, abont here, and I’m going to stay." * - = “You gomes out, py dam, or I go gits you. “Don’t come in here,” cried the Colonel,” or there will he one of your family drowned in stead of being hanged.” The matter enaeu iu a A Railway Experimeit. On several occasions we have referred to the progress that has been mate in the introduc tion of what is called the “narrow gauge” rail road, by whioh is meant a track abont three feet wide, though some -have been built with a commends them as feeders of trunk' lines, and as means of communication in thinly inhabited districts.

It is some eighfyears since the Featiniog narrow railroad was proved to be a success both for freight and passengers in Wales, and in the meantime not a mile has been put in operation in the United States, where these roads oan be most advantageously adopted, and where'Use cost of the common gauge forbids the construc tion of railroads in portions of the country where they are mnoh needed, tiueb roads are, however,..in progress here snd in Canada, and we noticed the other day mention of the arrival at Bt. Louis of a dozen cars en route to the *oad now constructing from Denver, in Colora do, to Santa Fe, thence to be extended to El Faso and San Diego. The trunk line of tMs road will be about five hundred miles long, and to El Faso the distance is some three hundred and fifty miles farther. The cara are’built at Wilmington and at Philadelphia. Externally they look precisely like the ordinary cars, bnt inside there are three seats, two. on one side and one on the other, the double and single seats be ing arranged in each half of the oar, so u to make a proper balance. Smoking-ears nave side benches. The cars are four and six- wheeled. The Iooomotives have six- wheela, and weigh 25,300 pounds. They can make thirty or forty miles an hour. The cost of building these roads is usually put at $14,000 per mile, against say $24,000 for the common gauge, and the dead weight carried Is vastly in favor of the new gauge. The Denver road is estimated to cost $8,000 per mile.. While this reform has been received with hesitaney here, it has been oordially adopted in other countries. In Russia, lines are to be con structed from the Baltio to Siberia. In India the new gauge will soon number thousands of miles, if the magnificent plans there projected are earried out. The British possessions in the South Seas are also inaugurating the construc tion of these roads. In Egypt and-in the East ern Provinces of Canada, a like movement is in progress. These have all been'stimnlated by the success of the experiment in Wales, where the engineer, Mr. Fairlie, has demonstrated con clusively tho substantial advantages of these lines.

The Tallapoosa, after landing the anchors and chain cables, is going with the Rear-Admirals, the ladies, and the baskets of champagne, to the coast of Maine on a little summer excursion. The vessel, the Rear-Ad mirals, and the champagne were inspected on Friday by the Secretary of the Navy, and pro nounced to be in perfect readiness for the trip. The Tallapoosa, the Rear-Admirals, and the ladies will return abont the 15th of August. The champagne will probably not return.

Colonel Bristow had telegraphed Ms proposed arrival in Washington, so that his man met Mm at the depot with Ms carriage and watohed the throng of passengers in hopes of seeing the So licitor General. The Solicitor General,-howev er, did not make his appearance. The cars were uncoupled and the Pallman dormitories on wheels switched off. The man returned home, and was again sent down to tho depot with or ders to search for the Colonel, TMs ho did, and at the end of two hours found our legal dig nitary sonnd asleep in section seven, and, on being awakened, made some incoherent re marks touching scrubbing brashes and steam, that left the impression on the by-standers that the Solicitor was not clothed in Ms right mind. Row They Flake a Ku-klux:. One Payne, of Estelle county, Kentucky, who turned State’s evidence, gives the follow ing information: I first signified my intention of joining the band to Henry Adams, -working in the same drift with me,- abont tho 17th of May. Henry then took me to tho middle of tho drift, and in the presence of John Pattrick, having me put my left hand on my heart and hold up my rij ’ ‘ administered the following oath, to wMch I sented: “You do solemnly swear you will not reveal a sign or pass-word of this organization, to which you now attach yourself; also, you will aid and assist any brother in any difficulty in wMch he maybeoome involved; and you will support the Democratic party; and may you suffer your body to be cut in four parts and cast into four quarters of the earth before you will reveal a sign or password bplonging to tMs secret organization.” I do not know the oath by heart, bnt thS above is about it. There is also sometMng about negro in it. Adams also gave me the signs and passwords. To recognize a brother at a distance we raise onr hat with the right hand and poll tire brim down over the right eye. The answer is the namft with the left hand. Both then draw the left hand across the month as if wiping it and stroke the breast with the right. the grip is made by grasping hands in the usual manner with the thumb pressing light between the other thumb and forefinger, and giving one stroke, saying, I am all right, how are yon? He answers, I am all right. I.reply, how may I know you are all right ? He answers, by word or by letter. -I ask wMch do you prefer ? He may rail for either. If he asks for letter I tell Mm-to spell. He says: “S,” I say “L,” he says “A,” I say “P,” he says “U,” I say “P, all spelling ont -- “SLAP UP,”, whioh is the test word of the order. If I want any farther proof Isay “siok, "when he answers “welL” If I still require further proof I say “Avigilia;” if he is all righthe replies “eternal ly.” A still further test would be for me to ask “What is most like cedar?’’ He would answer, “A dead rebel.” I would ask “Why?”, He to answer “Beoause it never dies.” If I get into a difficulty and see I am overpowered, and de sired to know if any brother Was present I look my arms across my breast, as if cold, and Bay, “I wish I knew if any St. Mary’s childem were about.” If any brother is about he will imme diately come to my aid, and if my opponents be members of the band they will immediately desist and we become friends. NIGHT BEOOGNITION. When travelling at night, on meeting a per son and - desiring to know if he is a brother, I say, “Halt,” and give a loud slap with my hand on my thigh- He answers with two slaps.

No, sisters, yon may talk as you will about woman’s independence; it is all folly; we are always dependent, and upon man. You may say what you like as to onr being man’s superior, or man’s help-meet, or nature’s noblest work—all of which man will grant us.

None; and in or der to become such let us cultivate and prac tice all those virtues wMch so much adorn onr station, and that man so mnoh admires; and my word for it, we will find hundreds worthy of us.

' Irvine—Kennedy.—At the residence of Hon, A. W. Hubbard, Sioux City, Tuesday evening, June 27th, by Rev. E. H; Avery, Mr. Wm. D, Irvine and Miss Panthea L. Kennedy. Ttae Queen’s Purse. Members of the British Parliament are ac quiring the bad habit of asking ngly questions. Mr. Dixon is desirous of knowing whether the Civil List can be reduced. TMs is a pertinent question, following olosely as it does'upon the abolition, by royal warrant, of purchase in the army. The Queen has deliberately disregarded the pecuniary losses to wMch officers maybe subjected, and now a raid seems to be meditated upon her own right of property. The reply of Mr. Gladstone to the question now raised in the House of Commons, is that the Civil List was fixed at the beginning of the reign of Viotoria, and that it cannot be changed. The Queen’s allowance is less than that of some of her pre decessors. George L had £1,000,000, ont of wMoh he paid the salaries of jndges, ambassa dors, and other officers. Under William IY. the royal allowance was relieved of various charges, and reduced to £510,000. It is understood also that the Crown may-have a private and separate estate. Tire allowance to Queen Victoria for the support Of her household and the dignity of the throne is £385,000. In addition she has the revenues of the Dnohy of Lancaster, wMch amount to some £80,000. The members of the royal family reoeive £111,0001a annuities, and besides all these are the revenues of the Prince of Wales from the Duchy of Cornwall, amount ing to some £55,000 pounds a year. The.Queen’s puree and that of her family, therefore, reach the clever figure of some £580,000, a sum suffi cient to cause some question among those who regard royalty as a' burden and an expensive lnxory. And there ia abundant evidence that the nnmber of these is increasing, not merely among such desperate fanatics as rejoiced when the late royal infant died, but among sober and thoughtful men, in'the ranks of those who have made a.place and a name, for themselves by hon est toil, and whose accumulation bears the stain of no 'government subsidy. - There is a wide spread feeling that the throne eostS more than it is worth, and that though a crown may be well enough, the people should not be taxed to support au its adjunots, particularly when they are so numerous as under the present benignant and motherly Queen.—Commercial Advertiser■ 2,334 1,512 Horning Hornet Report.

Science Advances.'—As -soon as an article pur porting to be of utility has been tested, and its merits endorsed by public opinion, unprincipled parties endeavor to replenish their depleted purses by counterfeiting and substituting a spurious for the genuine article. Some time since, mercury, In the disguise of pills, powdors, etc., was given for all diseases of the stomach and liver, while quinine waa freely adminiatored for the chills. At length Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters made its advent, and an entire new system of healing was inaugurated. The benficial effects of this valuable preparation were at once acknowledged, and mineral poisons suffered to sink into that obscurity to which an en lightened ago has consigned them. There have been many spurious bitters palmed upon the community, which, after trial, have been found perfectly worth less, while Hostetter's has proved a blessing to thousands, who owe to it their restoration to health^ For many years we have Watched the steady pro gress of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters in public timstion, and its benifioent effects aa a cure for all complaints arising from the stomach of a morbid nature, and we are free to say that it can be relied upon aa a certain relief and remedy. Its proprie tors have made the above preparation, after years or careful study and sitting, and are now reaping the reward claimed by this valuable specific, and wMch.they so richly merit. It is the only prepara tion of the kind that is reliable in all oases, and it, therefore, demands the attention-of the affleted. THE WIBSHIP COTTON GIN.
