Mr. Soule’s Expulsion from France.
Highly Interesting Details—Action of the United
States Ministers.
London, Friday, Oct. 27.— The steamer ot to
morrow will carry the startling intelligence that
His Excellency the Ministrr of the United States of
America et I he Court of Madrid has been expelled
from France , through which country he was re
turning to his post. The simple narrative of
such an event is, I think,the best manner oi let
ting you know the extent of the indignation felt |
here by every American, without distinction of
party, and to be felt, no doubt, by all the citizens
of our intentionally insulted Republic ; so I give
you the lollowing details : M
Mr. Soule, having spent two days in London,
set out last Tuesday for Madrid via France. On
hie arrival at Calais, he was asked to show his
passports, and, having doneso, was requested to
step into an inner room of the Bureau de Police.
Here he was told that he must leave the country
by the next steamer, and that he would not be
allowed in the meanwhile to go anywhere out
of Calais, being, in fact, placed under surveillance,
jgllirbere must be a mistake, sir,'’ said our Min
ister ; “ do you know r who I am
Sr There is not the slightest mistake, sir,” was
the reply; “you are Mr. Soule, the Ambassador
tbe United States of America to the Court of
* Spain, and I have orders not to let you pass.’’
"Where are your oiders, sir?' J asked Mr.
aSTsoule.
“This is no business of your’g, sir; these or
ders are for me, and I am acting upon them,”
/ said the Commissary.
Jus happened at Calais. Something more
said, but of no public concern. Mr. Soule
by the next steamer, and reached Lon
late ia the evening day before yesterday.—
The news being made known in American cir
cles, the greatest excitement prevailed, and, as
may be imagined, measures ot all sorts were sug
gested amidst great indignation.
The Legation partook, of course, of the general
excitement. I have not had the honor of seeing
Mr. Buchanan since his return, but from all I
hear, he maintained throughout this irritating af
fair, a dignified resolution to concur in every step
to require due apologies lor an insult against our
I national honor. The whole morning of yester
day was spent in consultation, the result of
which was the decision to send over Mr. Sickles,
in order that he might obtain a real knowledge
of what that proceeding really meant. It was
-. thought that the act might have been a mere per
sonal affair, capable of such a construction as not
to assume the menacing aspect of an insult from
one power to another. The mission of Mr.
Sickles was, accordingly, to be one of inquiry.—
He was not to push matters to an extreme it the
insulting party should offer explanations that
might be accepted, at least tor the moment, as an
apology to the United States. It was in this
spirit of moderation that Mr. Sickles was to go
yesterday evening to Paris, in order to commu
nicate the views and the advice of the Legation
in Loudon to that in Paris.
H I must not omit to say that this moderation
was deemed to be out of season by many. The
outrage was palpable, direct, not to be explained
away, and consequently not admitting any other
step, if immediate satisfaction should not be of
lered, than that of the withdrawal of xMr. Mason
and the whole Legation from France. That act
is the answer of European despotism to the Con
gress of American Democratic Diplomatists. If
it were a personal affair, Mr. Soule would not
have been allowed to enter France on his leav
ing Spain, but he was suffered to do so. He
went all over the country—nay more, he and his
diplomatic confreres held one of their consulta
tions on French territory, at Boulogne, so it was
not the man, Mr. Soule, but the Minister Soule,
to whom the affront has been offered. Among
the many persons who bold this opinion is Mr.
Reverdy Johnson, ot Baltimore, who wrote in
that spirit a very long letter to Mr. Mason.
These were the arrangements yesterday morn
ing. But, sir, Mr. Sickles did not go after all.—
He was prevented from doing so by a messenger
who came over yesterday at noon. Your corres
pondent from Paris will probaoly send you his
report about what he knows, but I give you, at
all events, my account.
Mr. Mason—the news of the Calias outrage
having reached him—went to the Foreign Office,
and wished to see M. Drouyn de l'Huys immedi
ately. He was left wailing two full hours. Ad
mitted at last, he remarked, first qt ail, upon nis
tardy reception. Some apologies were made, but
in a tone and manner that convinced Mr. Mason
that he had been left waiting purposely. He
dropped that matter, however, and passed to the
object of his official call, and asked the reason
why Mr. Soule had not been permitted to pass
through France tn route to Spain.
“ Well,” said M. Drouyn de l’Huys, in a very
impertinent tone, “there are reasons for that.”
Being pressed for these reasons Mr. Mason was
told that there were three of them :
First, Thejtreatraent of Sf Dillon, JFrench
Consul in California.
Second , The letter of Mr. Sanders to the
French people ; and,
Thirdly , Cuba !
The French Foreign Secretary said that the
Imperial Government cannot be expected to
treat in the usual friendly way the citizens ot a
State that has behaved in such a hostile manner
towards it.
1 am toid that Mr. Mason replied in the way
that will have occurred tn every one else on be
ing told those reasons. He said that the affair ol
isMr. Dillion was, in the worst possible construc
tion, but the mere blunder of a court of justice,
and that it cannot, accordingly, be made parallel'
with a case in which the United States are in
sulted by order ol the highest authority of anoth
er State. The letter ol Mr. Sanders was the
act of an individual who had, been
recalled from an official position before he pub
lished anything. Americans have the right to
say what they Lite, and the Government has no
control over their pens and presses. This is a
personal matter, which could, perhaps, have ex
cused a discourtesy towards the Citizen Sanders,
if he should have presented himself on the fron
tiers ol France, but it certainly did not author
ize a step like that against the United States
Minister. As to Cuba, Mr. Mason absolutely
denied —if I am web informed—the right of any
Power to meddle with difficulties that may have
* arisen between Spain and the United St tes. He,
at ail events, could not see how questions of for
eign policy can be treated by affronts offered to a
friendly Power. The two Ministers parted very
much excited, and Mr. Mason was fully prepared
to ask for his passports. He sent, however, the
Igllpecjal messenger to Mr. Buchanan, before de
ciding upon that step. •
1 Thu* stands the matter now You shall know
its continuation by the next mail. Those who I
“ could not help” admiring the admirable policy
of Napoleon 111., whom they considered rather
‘•a great man,” will, 1 hope, feel their enthusi
asm and “ respect” somewhat diminished towards
that honest man. It is to be hoped that this
question will be taken up by the people with all
the gravity and determinate energy it deserves.
It is to be hoped that the “ honor of the United
States”' will not be made a party question, nor
decided by private sympathies or antipathies
towards a person who happens to represent it,
while it is insulted. I have said my opinion,
strongly enough, of Mr. Soule’s objectionable
acts, not to be suspected of writing in his favor.
His principles, in most cases, are not mine, his
polio/ I deplored very often, and it was yesterday
for the first time that I saw him. But his person
has nothing to do with the very grave affair,
which would have occurred to some other American
Minister, not just now perhaps, but very soon at
all events. He who w >uld judge this matter
from a point of view of mere personal rancor
towards the man, is absolutely nnfit to judge the
spirit of European Cabinets towards America.
I have no boubt that our Ministers at the re
spective Courts will have sent such information
to the Government at Washington,as to inspire
a feeling of manly determination to vindicate
the honor of the Union. But our Government
must remember that this is no Greytown affair.
Noise and bluster are here of no use. A firm
adhesion to a duly-weighed resolution to exact a
full appology for a gross outrge , is the only, best,
and sure way to lead to success. It is, in many
respects, the heedless and unprincipled policy of
our Government that has emboldened them—
sooner than expected—to insult our Republic ;
and it is so much the more the duty of the Cabi
bet to blot out the shame thrown upon the name
of America by the reckless hand of a fortunate
criminal, who calls himself Napoleon 111.
[Correspondence of the Savannah Republican .]
Havana, Nov. 10th, 1854.
To the Savannah Republican :
Our mail communications being resumed by
the sailing of the Gov. Dudley, gives me this
opportunity of again reporting the current events
of the last few days.
Since the arrival of Concha, matters have set
tled, leaving the chronicler but few events
worthy of note.
There was on Thursday some rumors afloat of
great political and insurrectionary movements in
Baracoa, with a full conviction that their high
coloring was due to the lively Creole imagina
tions of my informants. I went to the fountain
head, or as near thereto as I could approach, and
round that the truth is this in outline:
A schooner, regular trader to the port of Bara
coa, arrived with an assorted cargo, some ten or
fifteen days since. Sixteen boxes were landed
from her surreptitiously; but probably with the
cognizance of the under officers of the customs,
bribed to pass them without paying duties; by
some means it was discovered that they contain
ed arms, and they were seized—as also the
schooner on board ot which was found ten boxes of
ihe same “Merchandize.” The number of pieces
I could not ascertain, but they cou d. not possibly
exceed three hundred, and probably did not reach
two hundred. There is no information of any
Creole movement, either consummated or in
tended in that or any other section of the Island.
General Manzano, the second in command, has
already left this to investigate all the facts rela
tive to this importation. It is utterly impossible
that any successful attempt at emancipation from.
Spanish domination can ever be made bj the
Creole population of this Island. Although with
out exception they are rebels at heart, they can
not act in concert, and resort to physical resis
tance to their oppressors.' The wealthy planters
very justly fear the destruction of their immense
estates, during the servile disturbances which
would inevitably accompany any political action
on their part. Daring all the winter months,
while the dry leaves of the cane cover the ground,
»he application of a single match to those on the
windward side of the fields, would raise a con
flagration which' would sweep over the entire
property, aud ruin the most wealthy proprietor.
With such prospects before them, we could hard
ly expect even of men whose minds were not
reduced to a very low standard by ages of sub
jection, that they should incur certain ruin with
so little prospect of success as their unassisted
effort would promise.
I hazard nothing in saying that no internal at
tempts at revolution can possibly have any other
resuits than the destruction of all concerned in
them. Opportunities have presented themselves
and have been allowed to pass never to return
The liberal policy which Concha pursues will
tend very much to soften down the ill feeling
between the Creole and Spaniard and in time
may make of the former a firm supporter of
Constitutional Government. It is supposed that
he has proposed various modifications besides
those he has already made, and that they will
receive the approbation of the Ministry so soon
as the Cortes meet. He has taken every oppor
tunity which he has had to say to Americans that
there will be no trammels put upon our com
merce or upon such peaceable citizens as visit
the Island for health, business or pleasure. That
the necessary police regulations will be made as
little onerous upon visitors as is consistent with
a good system ot police. Business has somewhat
recovered from its prostration under Pezuela’s
measures. It still remains however dull, and no
decided improvement can be hoped for until the
new crop shali begin to come in. From present
appearances we may expeci an early commence
ment, and may have new sugar in before the
close of the year.
On Sunday last Marcos Ipasi committed sui
cide by blowing out his brains with a pistol. He
was a merchant ot good standing and I believe
has left his affairs in good condition. The mo
tive is not known. On Tuesday an officer of
the army put an end to his existence in the same
manner. He had been partially insane for some
time previous.
Another attempt at suicide with a pistol was
made under the balcony of the palace: but only
a very slight flesh wound was produced and the
man is recovering. Poverty and partial aberra
tion of mind induced this attempt.
The prisoners continue at work removing the
outer defences of the walls. No attack has yet
been made upon the wall itseft, nor will there
be until the committee shall report upon the
best plan of uniting the inner and outer portions
ot the city. The concession obtained from the
late government to connect the Railroad with
the new warehouses at the Southern termina
tion of the land walls, will probably be annulled,
and the track taken up. This measure will
drive the Railroad Company to a union with the
stores on the opposite side of the bay, or to a
change of their depot to a point on the bay. near
the Gas Works.
Several ot the “jobs” under the late Ministry,
will be broken up, and the parties interested will
be heavy losers, as few of them have yet realiz
ed any profits.
Our wiuter visitors are beginning to arrive.—
There are now greater facilities than ever before
offered for their accommodation. Among the
Hotels, that ot Woolcot & Wyatt, stands high.
I dined there with a friend a lew days, since,
and was much surprised to see a table laid with
every luxury the city affords, and the great num
ber ot dishes prepared in “Yankee” style. Visi
tors at this Hotel will not be compelled to eat
game, but will always find true yankee food
before them. I also examined the rooms and
found that the Spanish cot with two sheets and
a pillow' had been replaced, with bedsteads cov
ered with matrasses and clean linen. D.
Cotton Crop.— Extract from a letter of an
intelligent planter to his factor in Mobile.
Prairie Blupp, Nov. 8, 1854.
“I have just received yours of 30th, and note
what you say about the fine weather,aud 1 sup
pose you ought to have added “no frost.” Think
ing you would like to be posted up about these
matters, 1 will give you my views based upon
my observation. The tine weather has enabled
the planters to gather their Crops, and so far has
been of great advantage, but it is has had bo ef
fect upon the amount of the crop. It is remark
able that no cotton in this region has matured or
opened within the last three weeks.
Upon many plantations, in fact, on all the
lands, there is a good top crop, of bolls, and some
weeks ago we were relying a good deal upon it,
but now we have been forced to the conclusion
it will never mature, —it is too late.
A month ago 1 picked over a field, and the cal
culation then made was that it would produce at
least 500 lbs to the acre more. I rode over it
yesterday—there is not 60 lbs open. Cotton
picked two weeks ago has not 25 lbs open on it.
I have been over several plantations and it is
all the same. We have out about 160 in num
ber and 10 or 15 moie wiil close our work.—
Put this down for as much as it is worth.
Yours, dec. ..........

Emigrant Ship Ashore—Terrible Loss of
Life.
New York, Nov. 13.—The ship New Era
from Bremen, with 360 passengers, went ashore
last night during the prevalence of a thick fog,
off Deal, on the New Jersey coast, a point about
16 miles south of Sandy Hook. The vessel will
probably prove a total wreck. No particulars
have yet been received and some anxiety is felt
for the safety of the passengers.
(second despatch )
New York, Nov. 13.—Various reports are
afloat this afternoon of a serious loss of life by
the wrecking of the ship New Era. The most
authentic and reliable statement is that about 23
of the passengers, with the captain, succeeded in
reaching the shore, but that the rest were unable
to do so and were left on board. Os these one
half were drowned either between decks or by
being washed overboard.
Every effort was being made at the beach to
rescue the survivors.
(third despatch.)
New York, Nov. 13.—-The ship New Era lies
broadside to the sea three hundred yards from
the shore. In the effort to make a connection
with the ship all the balls at the beach were shot
without success and no line could be thrown to
the wreck Those on shore sent to the other
stations for more balls, but without success
Only twenty passengers succeeded in getting
ashore in the ship’s boats. The life boat succee
ded in reaching the ship but once, when ten pas
sengers attempted to come ashore in her. She
turned over twice and at last righted, but only
five of the ten passengers were saved. It is
thought that seventy persons were washed over
board. The sea was breaking over the ship, and
it wa9 likely that many more would be washed
over before morning. Capt. Henry was saved
in the life-boat.
The ship is a total wreck. Two hundred pas
sengers are clinging to the rigging.
The ship went on shore at eight o’clock this
morning. It is doubtful if she will hold together
till Tuesday morning.
New
accounts from the wreck of the New Era are that
the steam tug Achilles was laying off'the wreck
ed ship and the Leviathan steamer was nearing
the spot. The vessel was on her first voyage
and will prove a total loss. She had only a
small cargo. The ship lays broadside to the sea
and the sea is heavy with foggy weather.

Dougherty County—its Statistics.
We give below a short statement, showing the
value of the real and personal estate of this coun
ty, made up for us from the Tax Digest of our
county Collector, by our friend Mr. E. H. Swin
ney. By this it appears that Dougherty is, per
haps. the richest agricultural county of its size in
the Union—and certainly, for its voters the most
productive. It appears that there are 370 voters
each of whom, on an average, have 10 slaves
worth $5,000, and nearly 800 acres of land worth
SI,OOO and over—to work them on, —besides
this these figures show that each voter on an
average is entitled to about $2,700 of good notes
or merchandize—making the total amount of
property that each voter of our county repres
ents (plantation and mechanical tools, Libraries,
School and Church property, annual crops and
provisions, and other statutory exemptions ex
cepted) at or near the sum oi $14,600. Each
one pays on an average into the State Treasury
over sl3, and into the county treasury $26, be
sides the city tax upon the citizens of Albany—
the total sum of the State and county tax being
$39 to the voter. The county tax, we would
state, is lor building Court-house, Jail, &c,, and
will cease next year or be a mere nominal tax.

The Mineral Wealth of Fannin.
There is no county in the State so rich in
minerals as Fannin. The White Path Gold
! Mines are in active operation, and are yielding
handsomely, while a large number of persons are
I testing lor Copper in various portions of the
j county, with fair prospects of success. Up to this
1 time, however, but one company in Fannin or
; in this State, have succeeded in raising Copper.
; The mines of which we speak, are located in the
j eighth district, about one and a half miles from
Pierceville, and are owned by Messrs. Smith &
Summerour. They have already raised over
twenty tons of ore, and are preparing to increase
their force. When in lull operation, they will
employ from 250 to 300 hands, and will proba
bly ship more ore than any other company now
mining.
In Mr. Smith, the Supeiintendent and part
proprietor of the mines, we recognized an old
1 acquaintance from Middle Georgia, and we can
state, in connection with this matter, an inter
esting fact—he was the first man to leave Geor
! gia for California in search of gold, and he will
be the first man in Georgia to ship Copper to
i market. He is an energetic and thorough-going
fellow, and we congratulate our Fannin county
friends on his accession to their number.
These mines are about 60 miles distant from
Dalton, and about the same distance from Car
tersville. Ihe ore will be transported in wagons
to one or the other of these places, and thence
shipped either to Charleston or Savannah. The
company prefer to ship byway of the former
city, it the Georgia and South Carolina railroads
will make the expense the same as byway of
Savannah, ihe amount shipped in the course
of the year, by this one company wiil be sufficient
to make it an object for these roads to see that
their scale ot prices is so arranged «.s to secure it,
and we respectfully call their attention to the
matter. If other mines in Fannin and Gilmer
prove as valuable and productive as there is every
reason to believe they wiil, the entire business
of transporting the ore might be secured by these
two toads, if proper measures are adopted.
The mines es Messrs, Smith & Summerour are
among the richest that have been discovered—
and are probably, in depth and size of vein, supe
rior to any one of the Duck Town mines. They
yield the Black Oxide and the green Carbonate
of Copper, some of which is thought to be worth
at least 80 per cent, and a very superior article
of Bell Metal, in great abundance, worth about
36 per cent.— Cassville Standard, 11 Ih inst.
Frost at Last.— Yesterday morning ice was
tormed, seen, and felt at a very early hour with
in the city ! It was theretore a killing frost
that rendered Sunday night so cold, and the re
cent growth ot cotton must have been effectual
ly stayed.
It is now the city’s turn to rejoice, and a large
number of her returned denizens arrived at the
same time to share in the gratulation.
We may now without lear, or mental reser
vation, hope to see every one come home again,
and recommend immediate return to all: the city
was never more healthy, nor the weather more
favorable for the busy work with which every
body is now crowded.— Mobile Register, 14 th

us to this notice.
See first page Daily, this morning.
The Weather, &c.
The weather we are now experiencing is de
lightful. Cool and bracing mornings and
evenings, and comfortable sunshine midday.
As a matter of course we have often seen the
city more lively, and more wagons and bustle in
our streets, but after the spell of sickness we
have recently passed through, it makes one feel
good to see the number of Cotton, Poultry, and
other wagons laden with the stamina of life, dai
ly visiting our city and filling up its streets.
Business may be said to have fairly opened. We
understand our banks are daily losening their
knot strings, and everything is progressing
finely.
We would advise all of our country friends
who have any produce ready lor market, to send
it forward. We now have the buyers on hand
ready to purchase and with means to pay for all.
From a Friend.
We received with pleasure your kind letter
and return you our sincere thanks for the present
accompanying it. If it is the only fruit raised in
your section ol the country at this season of the
year, it is nevertheless acceptable, as the speci
mens sent are much better than we can procure
in our market for love or money. We shall take
care they are done up brotvn } ar.d think they will
prove very palatable to the rest of the family,
; coming from the source they have.
The Weather. —Winter (says the Cassville
! Standard of 17th inst..) has been down upon us
for some days past, in good earnest. On Monday
morning we had a fine prospect of a snow storm,
small particles of the frozen element having de
scended for a short time, “but not enough"—as
j we heard a representative of Young America re
maik—"to do any good.” For two or three
i mornings past, we have had heavy frosts, and
! there is every appearance, at the time we go to
press, of continued clear and cold weather.
East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad.—
The masonry of the bridge over the Tennessee
river at Loudon, has been finished, and also the
wood work on six spans is nearly done, leaving
but tour miles to finish the entire bridge. The
whole work is a noble structure, being about
j 1700 feet long, and 80 feet above water surface
I a t low water. This is the last bridge of “any
importance to build, and in January it is expect
ed that the trains will passover. The iron for
the road to Knoxville (29 miles) is nearly all
here, and on the way up the railroads anu river;
it will be laid down as fast as received. That
received at Loudon before the bridge is done,
will be boated up the river and landed at conve
nient places. It is expected that some fifteen
miles will be laid by the time the engine crosses
| the river.
The New York Election.—The latest re
turns from the election, seems to warrant the
| conclusion that Mr. Clark, the whig candidate,
| has been elected Governor by a small plurality
over Mr. Seymour, the next highest candidate.
This result however is not certain, as the votes
yet to hear from or the official returns may le
verse the present position of the two contest
ants.
The return from the election in Massachusetts
which took place on the 13th, for State Officers
and Congresssional Representatives, indicate as
far as received, that the Know-Nothing candi
date for Governor, Henry J. Gardner is elected
by a large majority ; and, also, that the same
political combination have carried nearly all the
State Officers and a large majority of the Legis
lature.
A Mr. James Woode being dissatisfied with
terms allowed him by the Pittsburg and Stuben

his mill-men to the number of 200, and attacked
the Railroad laborers when they undertook to
; comence making the road there on Monday.
The laborers were obliged to flee in great con
fusion, and several of them were badly injured.

The whole number for 15 days was 30—14 of
which were of negroes, and but sos persons who
died of yellow fever. The yellow fever cases
were mostly of persons- who had remained
throughout the epidemic, having the seeds of
! the disease in them, the recent change of temper-
I ature doubtless tended to develope it. Os the
j number of interments three were of remains
I brought from the conntry, to wit: one from Gor
| lion, Wilkinson county, one from Hancock couu
; ty, and one from Macon. Ofcasualties 2, of in*
! temperance 1, old age 1, teething 2, consumption
1, spasms l, convulsions 1, congestion ol the
brain 1, dysentery 1, and yellow fever s—total
16 whites. Os the negroes, 14 in number, in
cluding children, none died of yellow fever.
The report is even more favorable than could
have been anticipated, and goes to show the re
established healthfulness of our city.
There has been no new case of yellow fever
within a week past.
There were 67 deaths from yellow fever in
the city, in November, 1820, when the popula

(From the Baltimore American )
Great Railroad Speed. —Judge Meigs, in a
paper lately read by him before the American
Institute Farmers’ Club at New York, stated so
far from the locomotive having reached its ulti
matum of speed—one hundred miles per hour—
it was his belief, that the road would yet be con
structed over which the“ iron horse” will move
with a velocity ol three hundred miles an hour.
Then, travellers could take an early breakfast in
New York, dine in San Fianoisco, and transact
ing any little business they may have on hand
during the afternoon return in the “night train,”
and on the next day say “ good morning” to the
pedestrians of Broadway. When the locomo
tive “ makes” three hundred miles an hour, this,
of course, will be perfectly practicable, although
the idea is enough lo startle the Judge him
self.
A speed of one hundred miles per hour, has
been attained on English railways ; but, make
“the railroad from point to point a mathemati
cal line; the rails ten times stronger than any
now in use; the locomotives on wheels of far
greater diameter, say twelve or fifteen feet; the
guage of a relative breadth; the signals and
times perfectly settled; the road, walled on
both sides, during the transit of trains having
the gates of the walls all closed; then,” exoiaims
the Judge, “ instead of one hundred miles an hour,
we shall more safely travel three hundred miles an
hourP
There is, certainly, very little old fogyism in
the above, quoted lines; the author deserves to
be considered the most" progressive man of the
day. To our mind However there is one diffi
culty in this matter which seems to have been
entirely overlooked, and unless the Judge can
meet it, his locomotive will never run to San
Fiancisco “in ten hours.”
A speed of three hundred miles an hour, it
has been estimated, would require a piston ve
locity of 3,300 per minute, of eighteen inch
Stroke, if the driving wheels were twenty four
feet in circumference; and these driving wheels
would have to make, 1,100 revolutions per min
ute. To acclomplish this feat the boiler would
have to evaporate a ton ot water per minute
Does Judge Meigs know of any locnmotive that
can accomplish all this?—if not, as we have
never seen or heard of any such machiue, we
cannot see how this great railroad speed is to be
obtaiued ; and this is the difficulty to which we
have alluded, and which must make the inven
tion of the Judge’s fast locomotive an achieve
ment yet belonging to the apoehrypal future.
A Speck of Trouble between France
and England. —To the Editor of the London
Times : Sir —The words, “in spite of timid
counsels.” which occur in Louis Napoleon’s let
ter ot condolence to Madame de St. Arnaud, pub
lished in the Moniteur, cannot be passed over as
words of slight -importance. On the contrary,
they are ot the highest importance. It is impos
sible that they can apply to the French, because,
if the Emperor had been so dissatisfied with the
timidty of any of his own officers as to be in
duced to complain publicly of the character of
their counsels, he would have taken the shorter
course of superseding them. Those words must,
therefore, apply to the English , lor, however
great may be the interest of the Turks or the
Austrians in the present contest, it was not for
either of them to have an influential voice in
! deciding on the invasion ol the Crimea.
We have, then, the opinion of our Imperial
ally, officially proclaimed to the whole world,
that the counsel of Englishmen touching the in
vasion of the Crimea was tainted with timidty.
A graver charge it is difficult to imagine. That
the Emperor preferred it otherwise than as the
result ot his firm conviction, and after careful
consideration of its probable effect on all con
: cerned, it is impossible to suppose. In ordering
tne publication in the Moniteur of those ominous
words, the Emperor must have intended either
to brand with ignominy the character ot one or
more of our generals or admirals in the Black
Sea, or to point at senile incapacity.
Whichever was his intention, the duty of the
Government is clear. They are imperatively
bound to guard the honor of our army and navy,
j They are equally bound to satisfy the nation on
j whatever affects the national honor. Their first
; duty is to ascertain the precise meaning and ob
j jectof the Imperial accusation. Their nexfceith
j cr to refute it or to consign the justly accused to
| merited punishment.

Buying at Home.—The people of Cumberland j
county, Virginia, hefil a public meeting and re
solved to buy their goods from the direct impor

as advantageous terms as those imported through
New York and other Northern cities. They
also resolve to patronize, in preference to alt
others, the literary institutions and mechanics
of their own State, and all that peitains to Vir
ginia’s advancement in the arts, sciences, and
learned professions, as well as in matters of re
creation and pleasuxe. This is a wise and good
move, worthy to be followed and zealously car
ried out all over the State. Let the Old Dominion
be true to herself, think more about her mateiial
’ interests than the Resolutions ot '9S, and she
will be behind none of her sister States in all ’he
elements of a prosperous Commonwealth.—Na

The same advice, says the N.O. Bulletin, is
applicable to nearly all of the Southern States,
and, if followed, fully and judiciously, would soon
release the South from her commercial depen
, dence on the North,besides rendering her afflu
i ent and powerful in an astonishing degree. The
counsel might be made still more comprehensive.
It ought to include home manufacturing, the
tostering of home industry and every conceiva
i b!e description ot avocation, the development of
home resources, the encouragement of home en
i terprises, w hether of railroads, steamboat and
■ ship building, steam mills, rice mills, and every
, other occupation wherein honest labor can ein
. [ ply itself profitably, and add to the aggregate
■ j w’ealth at the same time. This is all the South
wants. Nature has done the rest for us. How
| long shall we be lacking in these respects? Not

general welfare.
Ye wild and vioious youths, why will ye persist
i dosing with tho filthy, nauseating compounds
j daily proffered, thereby impairing your appetite
and digestion, and destroying you mentally as well
as physically, when you can be cured with a few
doses of pleasant medicines?
I Yo takes of every age and condition, why will
ye sufi'er and repine and drag out a miserable ex
istence, unfitted for the enjoyment and even ordi
nary pursuits of life? You who are thus annoyed,
and wish to be restored to health and vigor by a
treatment at once pleasant and effectual, should
I consu jt Dr. Morris. His success in chronic dis
eases has been greater than that of any other phy
sic ian of his day. Many who have been for years
afflicted with disease or consequences resulting
I from excess have been restored to health and vigor
under his really scientific treatment.
Should a personal interview bo objectionable, '
state your disease in writing—enclose five dollars
—address Dr. W. H. Morris, through the Posts ;
