V ajiolron's lasi -tear. —About n year l.etore
liis death a sudden change took place in the
daily hahits ol Napoleon. His better angel had
1 whispered into his ear and carried solace and
contentment to his heart. He no longer seclud
ed himself from the world. He went among his
fellows as a man should mix with them, and as
: an Emperor might. There is work going on in \
i his garden. The gardeners are very busy, es- i
pecinlly the Chinese—an industrious race. Na
! poleon takes his place among them. He uses
liis spade with the rest, and the children ofj
Count Bertrand are playing about him white he i
digs, i owls trespass on the grounds,and make ;
j free with the favorite Hotver beds. The Impe- ‘
; rial gardener sends for his nun, shoots the ties
passers dead, and then proceeds with his work |
—superintending the raising of sod walls in this j
place, the formation of reservoirs in another.— j
\ isions ol the old time come across him while :
he labors, and traces out the ground of his little |
’ garden, plans and field-works for defensive op- j
erations, to the edification of his officers and at- ]
! tendnnts, who group about him as lie explains i
bis ideas. Day after day, lor a brief but happy i
j interval, the gardening continues. Every man i
in the house lias a spade in his hand, and Nano- j
leon is very busy putting in seed. 11e breakfasts
j in his garden, sends messengers to the orderly j
officer for carts, shovels and shades, and when i
1 the orderly officer look's in late in the evening, he ;
finds the great man still busy with Ids innocent and 1
healthy occupation ; and be sure lie will be in ;
good time the next morning, for the said officer!
; writes to the Oovernor, in his daily report of the i
!)tb of May, 18‘20q “(Jen. Bonaparte has got a
| large bell, which he rings, and immediatelv upon !
i this signal all the servants turn out to work in !
the gardens.” In less than a year after this sen
'eiiee was written, NapolCon diet!. Whore tie
was first buried, and where he how lies, the
wmld knows. Had he maintained, during the |
whole of liis six years’ banishment, the dignified j
and simple bearing which he assumed for a few j
weeks in his little garden, Mr. Forsyth’s hook
would not have been necessary, and there would
have been a sanctity in our recollections of the
last days of thfr still immortal Napoleon.— Lon

\ oik a lew days since, by the election of a Board
of Directors from all parts of the country, the
“Moonshine Kailioad,’’ of which “.Mr. Robert J.
W alker is to be the great snow-plough.” The j
Company, the Tribune thinks, “is intended to I
be a self-acting machine. It goes upon the I
plan upon w hich interminable arches are con- :
structed Given a place to stand upon, the
work can be carried on indefinitely, without ex

IfO” W ashington letter-writers assert that the
friendly reception given to Com. Perry’s squad
ron by the citizens of Jeddo, was in consequence ;
| of instructions sent by the British Government
to its Consul at Shanghai, to communicate wills j
the authorities of Japan, and apprise them of the
coming and objects of the Americans. It is un
derstood that the contents of the dispatches from j
Com. Perry will not be divulged for some time,
unless through the direction of Congress.
ftj'The Methodists ot the I idled .States have i
made admirable provision for the education of I
their pastors. They have already eight first j
class colleges, with property aud funds amount
ing in the aggregate to 8494,003, and another ;
is projected in .Missouri. They have also forty i
j six theological academies and seminaries, in :
i twenty nine of which there are 1,930 students, j
an average of 178 students to each seminary.— I
. The oldest of their colleges is at Wilbrahana, i
l and was founded in the year 1830 by the Rev.
Wilbur Fisk.
CO“ Rev. J. .VI. Peck, who is said to be ex
ceilent authority in all that pertains to curious
I events and singular facts in the social, or relig
! ious history of the west, in a late letter in the
Western Watchman, gives the following account
of the origin of a slang phrase so current in the
political language of the day :
In the night we passed the mouth of‘‘Sal
River,” up which so many politicians have been
“rowed,” many of whom are never heard from
again. The “people’s English” lias been en
riched by not a few expressive figures of speech
from characters and incidents in the Mississippi
Valley. In the olden times when transportation
on the Ohio and W estern rivers was conducted
upstream on keel-boats, there was an impetuous
current at the mouth ot Balt River hard to stem.
Among the boatmen, and rough fisted back
woodsmen on the adjacent land, in their blus
teringsand fights, “I’ll row you up Salt River,’
and “he got rowed, up Salt River, ’ became com
; mon phrases on unlucky defeats in personal al
: tercations.
It was about the commencement of Jackson’*-
administration the phrase began to be used figu
ratively to express political defeat. The ldenti
cal “Salt River’’ from which this metaphor origi
nated enters the Ohio about twenty five mile.-
below Louisville.
[ From rhe Chambers’ Tribune. ]
A Touch at the Touchy.
1 have heard a great deal in my time, through
hook and pulpit, of offensive people—diat is peo
ple, who, being of a rude or malicious disposi
tion. frequently give offence to their neighbors
and friends. It strikes me that the remarks
thrown out upon such persons are in a great
measure uncalled for and useless, for it So hap
pens that I scarcely ever meet with an offensive
person. I believe there was such a class of peo-
I pie once, as there once were plesiosauri and an
| oplotheria; but if such a class are to he found
in the present world at all, it must be in a grade
of society lam a little acquainted with. In my
social sphere, the opposite error of an excessive
complaisance is considerably more conspic
uous.
If writers and preachers, however were to di
rect a little of their thunder against offence
taking people the)’ would, I apprehend, be doing
useful service. This is a class which has, 1
| suspect, been increasing in numbers and sensi
tiveness, precisely as the offence giving class
lias been diminishing—a discord with its co
relative which is only apparent, seeing that the
peculiar property of this portion of the human
race is always to be the most affected by the
least cogent causes. lii the days when there
was a general roughness and want of mutual
respect, there was 1 suppose hardly such a thing
as taking offence at all. If there was rudeness
ou the one side, there was good humor or thick
skinnedness ou the other ; and so sulking and
filing up were both of them hardly known. It
was only when we ail became such nice ladies
and gentlemen, as scarcely ever to utter a word
out of joint, or fail in one of the formalities of
i society, that we began to be so much pestered
w ith intimations that great offence had been ta
ken at us for something which we had said or
done, or something which we had failed to say
or do.
In the beds ol roses on which most of these
people pass their days, a crumpled leaf is enough
to gi\e pain. Bow to them in the street with
little less than your usual flexure, fail to go up
and converse with them in a crowded evening
party, and they go home full of resentment at
the slight you have put upon them. Pass them
over in the invitations you give out for a dinner
or soiree where they would wish to be, and they
begin to speak of you as a heartless person who
forgets old friends. To be unmoved at one of
their jokes, to give a wry look at the crying of
one of their children, to fail to speak with suf
ficient warmth of their piano playing, or their
last novel or poem, is enough to discompose ;
them effectually at the moment, and throw a
cloud over their behaviour towards you fora long
time to come, if not forever. Much worse is it
if they should have heard a report of some half
jee ilar remark you had made upon them, not
quite respectful in its tendency. Then, without
affording you any opportunity of explanation
i r apology, they seal a vow of eternal resent
meat against you, or, what is quite as bad, with
d.aw info a cold abstraction which is vain for
you to try to penetrate.
Confirmed offence takers are so exceedingly !
disagreeable as acquaintances, that few care
much for their society, or feel any great con
cern when they give symptoms of having taken
umbrage. Vtepass them over as unfortunates,
and quickly cease to think of them. It is chieflv
m circles ot relationship : hey become seriously
annoying, for then they cannot be so readily
dismissed from consideration. The mischief
they do in such circles by tlielr exigeant tempers
their reclamations against imaginary ill usage, j
and their raising cabals and tactions against
every one who Gils to please them, is enormous. !
How often do we find that a couise of consist- 1
ent kindness, persevered in for years by one per
son in a family circle towards another will he- ■
come blank in recollection the moment some i
trivial word or look has been taken amiss. It!
is amiss, it is from such causes the greater j
number of family quarrels spring. Bystanders ;
usually affect impartiality in such cases as being !
totally unable to say which pat ty is in the wrong, j
1 have no difficulty w liatever in the case. Only
tell me which party first complained of an of- ;
fence, and I w ill tell you with whom in all pro
bability, the mischief originated
It you analyze the character of a confirmed
offence taker, yon will almost always find an
inordinate self love at the bottom of it. Such 1
j jiersoiis never get the attentions and consider,-!- I
i turns thay think their due. They deem all around j
i them, to be in a conspiracy to use them ill, when j
they themselves are more truly in a conspiracy 1
to torment society. The source of their infirm
ity is revealed by a converse fact—namely, !
I their extraordinary liability to think favorably
of all who will pay them court, not even excep
ting the most silly and the most worthless. It
is equally demonstrated hy another attendant
circumstance, that they instinctively shrink from
llie friendship of all kinds of honest and manly
people. In short, offence takers, in general are
about the most Contemptible people one meets
; with, as unfortunately they are also not far from
’ being the most mischievous.
W ith the best leeling towards unfortunate
i aud reduced people generally, and also towards
| those who are struggling upwards, but have not
! yet mounted very high, 1 am painfully sensible of
| there being a difficulty in keeping on good terms
j with them,in consequence of their great prone
j ness to taking offence where none is meant. It
i requires a \ery nice diplomacy to iret eomforta- I
blv along with people who fee! their fortunes to
; be below their merits and their pretensions.—
1 With easy, well off’ friends you take some little :
1 liberty : you may call or not as you choose ; I
you may indulge in jocular chat, partly at their
expense, sure that they will take it all in good
humor. But there can ho no such freedom with
poor friends ; there we can have no safety hut
in liip rigor of etiquette, under whose deadly
shade all social enjoyment fades and perishes.
It is a “ad consideration ; but we all daily feel
how fortune determines our associations and
our friondsfiips, and it is easy to see that this
sensitiveness of the inferior towards the superi
is one grand cause why it is so. One wearies
of constant explanations for doing away with
unintentional offence ; we, in time shrink with
apprehension from persons whom we fear bv
every trivial word to throw into a paroxysm of 1
resentment. The society of our peers becomes
more convenient, and we at length are content
to leave our unfortunate old friends to their own i
reflections.
There is such a thing, of course, as occasion
al offence taking by worthy people, simply un- i
der mistaken views of what is due to them, or j
of w hat has been done towards them. 1 would !
speak of this with forbearance, as an error into I
which the most amiable humanity may fall ; but i
I must also take leave to warn all my friends
against it, as a very grievous and dangerous one i
which they may well take some pains to avoid.
Many a well meaning person mult have had oc
casion to regret that he once gave way to a
feeling of offence, and spoke and acted about it
a way that magnified a trifle into a serious evil
A regret of this kind may last a life time, though
the original offence was hut the feeling of a
moment. Let such facts put us on our guard
against everything like undue irritability or sen
sitivenes, or at least against giving way to re
sentment, until we have been fully assured that
I offence was really meant, and find that an oppor
tunity for repentance has been neglected by the |
offender. And even then let the sense of irrita- |
tation be restrained within the narrowest limits j
’ possible.

Meeting of National Democrats.
Washington, Nov. 14. The meeting of the i
adamantine democrats to congratulate the hards :

Cornelius W. HVndall, offered a series of
resolutions, declaring that the nomination and |
election of Pierce as in consequence of bis
miinistnkeablo national antecedents and known
imposition to the conduct and opinions of those
who opposed Cass in 1848; that the Balti

;of the President ; congratulating the Now

‘deprecating the recent attacks on Dickinson, j
: &C.
Tiie resolutions having been read, i). 8. Rat- J
clill'e, took the stand and made an able speech
1 against the resolutions, charging on the movers j
; of the meeting hostility to the President, and a !
design to sink the administration. This created
great excitement, amid which YVendall replied. I
Hu said he was instrumental in calling this meet-
I ing. and asked if the President had carried out |
! the principles of the Democratic party ? Loud :
j cries of “yes” and “no”—much excitement— j
! three cheers for Dickinson <Vc.
I Mr. Overton, after the turmoil had subsided,
was called out, and briefly stated that the gre it
i question was not opposition to the administration
j Imt whether freesoilism should he an element in
the democratic party.
The question on the resolutions was called
when Mr. Rateliffe reminded gentlemen that
! this was an attack on the administration.— j
Wetidall denied it, when much excitement fol
lowed, parties almost coming to blows. Some- j
body moved an indefinite postponement of the ]
resolution, \nothor wanted to offer a sub j
1 stitute.
Before the question was distinctly pot, Wm.
H. Thomas, deputy collector of this port sprang
upon the platform and moved an adjournment, !
prior to which he proposed three cheers for the j
i administration, which were given. Wallach the j
chairman, then struck Thomas, knocking him ,
from the platform, when a general melee ensued, j
lasting some time, but ending in nothing serious.
The meeting was of course effectually bro
ken up.
The National Democrats are now serenading

An liilerextliit; Fact —One of the missionaries
of the New York Tract Society having supplied
the crew of a vessel going to Hayti not only
with tracts, but also with some religious papers
and books, the men, upon their arrival there,
made them into a parcel, and were taking them
on shore, when they were stopped hy a Custom
’ House officer. This being observed hy a supe
i ior officer, he directed that no duty should be
charged upon the parcel, and promised the Cap
lain that whatever he might bring of the same
kind should be passed duty free. Just at that
time the Emperor Faustiri passed that way, and
i hearing of what had taken place, he immediate
ly gave command that henceforward no duty
! should he charged upon Bibles, Testaments or
! Protestant religious hooks or tracts, or other
publications ; and then turning to the Captain,
i lie said : “I shall Ire happy to have on the Island
as much reading matter as you can bring, and
J if any person interferes with you let me know
it.”— N. J". Tribune..

A Marriage in High Life.
For the information of onr lady readers, to
whom, of course, the description of a bride’s
dress is quite interesting, we copy the following
account of a marriage in high life, from a Lon
don letter of the 18th ult., to the New York
Courier Enquirer.
“A notable event in the week, is the marriage
! at Pres wich— cum -Oldham, in Lancashire, of
| the Hon. Dudley Clarke Fitzgerald De Ros,
i Equery in Waiting to the Queen, to the Lady
| Elizabeth Grey Egerton, the eldest surviving
I daughter of the Earl and Countess of Wilton.
The lady is but twenty-one years of age, hand
j some, amiable and accomplished. The wedding
! was conducted in the old English style, and
people, tc the astonishing number of fifty thou
sand, assembled in the village of Old-ham, and
in the park of Heaton Hall, and roads adjacent,
on the occasion. The bells clamored aloud
; vigorously, local hands sent up epithalamiums,
! and village maidens showered flowers in the
j pathway of the happy pair, while repeating
i madrigals. The bride was saluted by some of
j the leading aristocracy, and received costly
j presents from full one hundred donors.
“As it may interest some of your lady readers
I to know the style of a temale dress most notice
able ou the occasion, 1 here mention it. The
bride was attired in an exceedingly beautiful
dress of rich white puull de soie, the skirt covered
with two deep flounces of Brussels lace, beaded
with ruche a lark. Her ladyship wore a wreath
ot cape jessamine entwined with orange blos
soms, and over her head fell a veil of Brussels
point. lii her hand she carried a bridal boquet
of natural flowers. There were four demokcl
lex d'houneur and five bridesmaids. These >e e
uniformly attired in white figured .im.-liu and es
over white glace, with blue glace mantles, url
bonnets oi crepe lisxc, (rimed with clusters ol
blue flowers. The chaste elegance of these
zostumes were greatly admiied.
“This was one of the most attractive wed
dings that has taken place for many years in
England, and may interest readers in the Uni
ted States, on account of the lady having been
in that country during the summer with Lord
Ellesmere’s family, where she, no doubt made
acquaintances.”
A Word to the Ladies.—We confess, says the
NVarrenton Neirs,, we felt a little—no not a lit
tle but deeply mortified, on reading the follow
ing advertisement in a Virginia newspaper:
“Scotch Snuff.— A very large stock of the
above, put up expressly for the North Carolina
trade, ami for sale at very low rates.”
We lelt mortified, because the intimation is
here made, and we fear too truthfully, that the
practice of begriming the soft pouting, red lips
ol the ladies, which nature seems to have de
signed expressly for the purpose of kissing, and
emittingsoothiug and musical sounds, with nau
seous tobacco ilust, is peculiarly prevalent in
Carolina. This is a subject of reproach
to the lovely fair ones of our State—a practice
in itself indecent, aud unhealthy, and one which
they should be ashamed to indulge in. The Irish
will hardly ever get clear of the opprobrium
cast upon them for their blunders—the Dutch
for bungling, or the ladies of North Carolina for
the nasty practice of dipping snuff’. But we
hope the latter will make an effort, and in the
course of years they may succeed.
Lola Muntcz. — \ California correspondent of
the Nashville Cuzcttc gives an account of the
lucent doings of Mrs. Patrick f\ Hull, ace, Marie
llealii, Countess ol Landslelt, alias Lola Mou
tez. She was recently arrested for assault and
battery, and heavily fined. It appeared on the
trial that she becoming enraged at her Chinese
servant seized him hy his long tail of hair, tied
it to the door knob, and slapped his rice masti
cating jaws most unmercifully. She had the
poor fellow “tight,” as he could not jerk loose
unless he scalped himself. After the perpetra
tion of this feat, the quondam Countess still
further “astonished the natives” by mining a
whole day in a corduroy Bloomer costume.
To cap the climax of her exceutrieities, Lola
lias sued for a separation from her husband, af
ter but a few months, and sought the protection
of a handsome caballero. Her assigned rea
sons for this course, the correspondent says, are
not tit for ears polite. Lola is a “brick;’’ no
mistake.
Sam Slick on Courting. —Another wise saw
from Mr. Slick’s last hook :
“Courtin’ a gall 1 guess, is like catchin’ a
young horse in the pasture. You put the oats in
a pan hide the haltur, and soft sawder the crit
ter, and it comes softly and shily at first, and
puts its nose to the grain, and gets a taste, stands
off’ and munches a little, looks around to see
that the coast is clear, and advances cautious
again, ready for ago if you are rough. Well,
you soft sawder it all the time ; so-s pet! ge ir
ly, pet, that’s a pretty doll! and g-ls to ki ai ,
like it, and comes closer, and >nu tiinik van
have it, make a grab at its maiue, and up u.-ad
and tail, snorhwwlieels short around, lets go both
hind feet at you and off like a shot. That comes
of being in a harry. Now if you had put your
baud up slowly towards its shoulder, and felt
and felt along tne neck for the maine, it might
perhaps, drawed away, as much as to say hands
| oil', if you please, 1 like your oats but i don’t
want you ; the chance is you would have caught
it. Well, what’s your play, now you have mis
sed it t Why, don’t give chase, for that only
scares the critter, hut you stand still, shake the
oats in the pan and say cope, cope, cojie ! and
it stops, looks at you, and will come up again,
but awful skittish, stretches its neck out ever so
far, steals a few grains and keeps at a respect
ful distance. Now what do you do then 1 Why,
•hake the pan and move slowly, as if you were
going to leave the pasture aud make for home.
\\ hen it repents of being so distrustful coines
up, and you slip the haitaron.
Great Storm and Loss of Life. —New Ha
ven, Conn., Nov. 14th.—The storm through this
State yesterday was exceeding severe. The
railroad track east of this place was washed
away, detaining the train from Boston with the
mails and passengers by the steamer America.
At Birmingham four lives were lost by the flood.
Neither the Boston nor New York mails have
arrived this morning. At Windsor the road was
badly damaged and rendered impassible.
I-oi isia.w Kllc nox —The succen of the democracy
in Louisiana is complete. They have elected the entire
State ticket, a large majority in the Izgislatnre, and three
out ot tour members of Congress. The election of a
United Stales Senator devolves upon the Legislature at
its next session. Mr. Slidell will probably be elected.
Virginia.—The first premium for ploughman
at the late Agricultural Fair at Richmond was
awarded to Mr. Richard Sampson’s negro man
“Randolph,” who managed his four mules with
out lines. The premium was 850.
