Pabis, December 5.—The National Assembly
effected an organization by re-electing President
Grevy and Vice Presidents of the last Assem
bly, as the legally elected representatives of the
people. The statue of the Orleans Princes
promises to be one of the leading questions be
fore the Assembly. Bills restoring to them
confiscated estates and all their rights as citi
zens of France, are preparing and will be in
troduced at an early day, is anticipated. These
measures will give rise to long and exciting de
bates. The extreme Left Wing will meet them
for proposals of general amnesty, which will be
setting free the thousands of communists still
held prisoners in hnlks and elsewhere, and will
be considered an equitable compliment of the
act of justice proposed to the House of the Or
leans. The President, with his well known can*
tionsness, hesitates to commit himself on sub
jects so producive of agitation.
LaRepnbliqne Franchise, a radical organ,
says the Left will not take the initiatory in mov
ing the return of the Assembly and Government
to Paris, bnt there is no reason to doubt that tho
removal will be effected daring this session of
the Legislature. A decree appears this even
ing appointing M. Balron Ambassador to the
German Empire, to reside at Berlin.

Washington, December G —Tho Commis
sioner of Agriculture, in bis report accompany
ing the President’a message, speakiog of the
needs of Southern agriculture, says it must be
conceded that tbe course of agriculture in the
Southern States has not been conducted with
that care, skill and regard for ultimate results
which have characterized the operations of
farmers in other States. While these lands are
continnonsly devoted to cotton and tobacco,
until they have arrived at a state of exbaustion,
those of tho North are continually improving
by rotation of crops, which i3 absolutely
essential to tbe life of tbe soil itself, and
withont which farming and planting had
better be abandoned. These impressions
have induced me to torn my attention to the
Slates to seek some mode by which the influ
ence of this department may be directed^ to
benefit them and to find ont whether their im
plements and especially their seeds, may not
be greatly improved, and how, in the distribu
tion of seeds and plants we may best reach
those to whom they may be profitably sent..
He says that tbe Southern States suffer gTeatly
in these interests for want of grasses, in tbe nse
of which these productions would begreatly in
creased by rendering a rotation of crops necessa
ry. Clover, with its deep roots and rye grass, is a
strong grower and will well endure the hot sun
of tho South. Referring to the distribution
of seeds the Commissioner says, ‘T am satis
fied that the mode heretofore pursued is erro
neous. The quantity sent is entirely too small
for even an experiment. A pint or a quart of
wheat, oatB, or other cereal, cannot be suc
cessfully grown, and such experiments almost
uniformly fail, beoan9e the quantity is too
small. I need not here discuss the reasons for
this, bnt the resnit is manifest to those who
have tried the experiment It wonld be far
better to pnt a half or whole bushel of seed
into the hands of one conscientious and care-
ful person, than to divide the same quantity
among ten or twenty.”
New Yoek, Deoember G.—A new trial was
granted to the prize fighters, Edwards and
Collins. In a recent suit in London, United
States vs. the Blakely Arms Company, the Court
decided that the proceeds of the sale of the

ground that their conviction was illegaly ob-
tained.

gress of May, 1870, and April, 1871, are uncon
stitutional and void, as far as pretending to
confer suffrage, and that Congress should not
be permitted to override tbe Constitution. He
argued that Congress could give Federal Courts

gress and the law of the State.

Doctor NcLeod on the Health of
Queen Victoria.
The Rev. Dr. Norman McLeod was one of a
party who, on the 17th nit, assisted in break
ing ground in connection with a new lnnatic
asylum for tbe barony parish at Lenzie Junc
tion, near Glasgow. At an entertainment which
followed, the chairman, in giving the toast of
‘•The Queen,” referred to the health of Her
Majesty, and asked Dr. McLeod—as having re
cently returned from Balmoral—whether he
felt at liberty to say anything on the subject.
Dr. McLeod then said: What is meant by Her
Majesty being “morally and mentally incapaci
tated for work,’’! leave Mr. Disraeli to explain,
for I do not comprehend it. I beg to say that
I have had the honor, in the Providence of God,
to minister to Her Majesty in public and pri
vate for the last thirteen or fourteen years, and
I have seen her in every variety of circumstances
—in the highest prosperity and happiness which
any married woman, not to speak of a Queen,
could enjoy, and in the very depth of her dis
tress, and I declare most solemnly, although
speaking with her in the greatest privacy and in
the most intimate communion that a subject
and a clergyman can have, I have never heard
her utter one word, or one sentiment, that did
not do the highest honor to Her Majesty,
whether as a Queen or a woman. I have not
only never seen the remotest trace of any moral
or mental weakness, bnt I have seen in every
instance remarkabie evidence of moral and
mental strength and capacity. Her Majesty
has just passed through a severe attack of rheu
matic gout, which so affected her hands that
for a time she was utterly unable to sign ber
name, and from a severe neuralgia, from which
she has entirely recovered, and I have never
seen her better in spirits, or belter in health, or
stronger in mind than sho is at this moment.
At the same time, I am far from saying that she
has recovered her strength, so as to be able to
do more than she is doing; for I make bold to
say that none of os have the slightest concep
tion of tbe unceasing demand that is made up
on a person in her.high position; of attending
to innumerable details, and carrying burdens
upon her mind withont tbe possibility of one
moment’s rest. Oar own wives find bow trying
upon their nervous energy is tho constant care of
a large family; bnt when we think what tho
Queen has to do as a mother, with her chil
dren occupying snch an important pqsitl a in
society, what she has to do in being com
pelled ever to think about the affairs of a
nation to whose interest she is profoundly de
voted, when we think of the constant weight that
must ever be upon her mind, we feel the won
der is that she is able to perform her duties in
the way that she has done. No one who knows
the Queen but knows she wonld do ail that it is
possible for her to do, and no one who kno#s
her bnt is amazed at her extraordinary consid
erateness for every one; how she occupies ber
thoughts upon every subject, and how she at
tends to such minute details of duty. I will
take it upon me to say that the case of the poor
est subject in ber kingdom, if made known to
her, would receive her immediate attention.
Let me also say tbe manner in which tho Queen
is often criticised, is a erne! and cowardly injus
tice, when neither as a woman cor as a Queen
she can mako any reply, but must endure the
injustice. While such attacks may be made by
a few, I feel certain that the large majority of
this nation so revere the monarch who occupies
the throne, and so esteem her unblemished per
sonal character, and the manner in which, dur
ing her reign, she has discharged herpnblio and
private duties, that, could they alter it, they
with one voice wonld unite with U3 when we
say—God save the Queen, and may she be long
preserved to tho nation.
Completely Africanized.—In his last mes
sage to the gang calling itself the Legislature of
Sonth Carolina, Scott, the so-called Governor,
says “the number of whites who are active Re
publicans in this State may be counted on a
man’s hand.” And yet that grand old State is
ruled and robbed exclusively by the Republi
can parly thus constituted. What punishment
can be too great for thoBe who have committed
this damniDg crime against the white race?
And what wonder that the whites of that State
seek to rid themselves of this infamous tyranny
by any and every means?
New York Times.—We see it stated that Geo.
William Curtis, at present editor of Harper’s
Weekly, will assume the position of chief editor
of the New York Times, on the first of January.
Cartis is an able man and as much of a gentle
man as any man with his political principles,
and long association with the Harpers can be,
bnt we hardly think he can pull the Times out
of the muck into which the cockney, Jennings,
and his associate Grant bootlicks have plunged
it. He might as well try and make a gentle
man of Grant, at once.

To the Point.—For brevity and perspionity
commend ns to the following official report of
a Californian vigilance oommmittee. If the
Great North Amerioan Present Taker wonld
model his State papers after it, his reputation
might be the gainer. For fear he will not other
wise see it, we shall take pains to send him a
copy of this edition of the Telegraph and Mes
senger. Says the report:
“We, the 500 emigrants, quietly inarched to
the Justice’s court and demanded the prisoner.
They refused to give him np. We, the 500
emigrants, took him, tried Mm, condemned him,
and hung him on the same tree he bad mur
dered his victim under. ‘ Farewell, vain world,’
were his last words, as the mule walked away
and left him there. We, the 500 emigrants,
followed the mole.”
material Progress.
We are gratified to learn that onr young
townsman Captain T. G. Holt, Jr., President of
the Bibb County Agricultural Society, took the
premium of $400 offered by the Savannah
Chamber of Commerce at the recent Fair in
that city, for the best five bales of upland cot
ton, and also the premium of $25 offered by the
Fair Association. It will be remembered that
Captain Holt took the premium of $50 offered
by the State Agricultural Society for tbe best
five bales of upland cotton, and also an addi
tional premium of ten dollars for the best single
bale of upland cotton. Bibb county comes to
the front right gallantly, and the President of
its Agricultural Society 'is one of the most in
telligent and progressive of all the yonng lead
ers who are destined to illustrate Georgia here
after, on the field of practical, paying agricul
ture.
The above we clip from the Macon Tele
graph. The instance is significant, sugges*
tive and note-worthy. Amid all the practical
achievements of the day, none are more full of
promise for the country than those triumphs
which educated skill is winning in the fields of
agriculture. That man who improves the cul
ture of onr great staples, is a public benefactor.
And the general attention of onr best young
men to farming, to scientific planting, wonld
be one of the best indices of abetter day for the
South.
Capt. Holt, whose success in cotton planting
ia above stated, is well known to us. With
rare talents for the law, he voluntarily left the
profession to devote himself to planting, and
is beginning to win an enviable reputation, in
tbe words of our contemporary, as “one of the
moBt intelligent and progressive of all the
yonng leaders who are destined to illustrate
Georgia, hereafter, on the field of practical,
paying agriculture.”
Educated intellect has as fine a field for labor
in agriculture as law, and we bail the day as a
good one when the young men of the country
shall recognize this faot, and look to farming as
being as inviting' an occupation as the profes
sions.
Gapt. Holt is a delegate to the Democratic
Convention to meet on Wednesday. He is well
worthy of any honor his people can give him.
We are glad to see snch men pushed to the
front.
Honor we say to oar planters.—Atlanta Con-
stiiution.
‘‘David Paul Brown, of Philadelphia,” writes
Colonel Forney, “has been for a century the
favorite orator of the Amerioan bar. His re
nown was national before be was thirty; and,
as he not only never sought but resolutely de
clined office, and rarely practised in tbe courts
of other Slates, bis fame is mainly tbe out
growth of professional efforts in his native
city. He is still living in Philadelphia, in his
seventy-seventh year, the most active veteran
of his time. Who can not recall him in the
flush of his manhood ? Of middle height, com
pactly made, with a full round chest; his fore
head high and broad, eyes black, mouth large,
and filled with the finest teeth, he is frequently
seen on the streets, almost as erect and grace
ful as when he thrilled onr court rooms and was
followed by crowds of admirers. Mr. Brown
was always rather an exquisite in bis dress, and
to this day, bis bine coat and brass buttons,
buff vest and light pantaloons, gloved hands,
neat boots, and rather rakish bat, prove the
youthfolncss of bis tasteB and tbe gayet; of his
disposition. He is, pt rhaps, too fond of dress;
but he defends his pecaliarity by saying “that
he had never known a man to spaak well in
olnmsy boots, nor to have a clear mind with
dirty hands and face.”
Check.—An exchange wonders “if a lady will
ever be President.” Ii3t ns have a gentleman
again before we try the experiment.—Sacra
