Democrats, who strayed off from their par- ty in 1855 after Americanism, honorably to re turn to their "first love” if they like. Under *11 these circumstances, then, will we not be doing wrong to give up the fight in this District, and thus weaken our gallant friends in the 3d, who have a larger majority than we to over come. Nay more, arc wc not doing wrong to our party generally, and will we not be retard ing its growth, to withhold from the Democratic Americans of the 7th District, at this propitious time, an opportunity of re-uniting and battling again with their old associates and friends ? I think wc shall be. If only 138 of them return to their “first love,” we can whip the light sin gle handed! May wo not now hope for 500, since now they con honorably return to us? Away, then, with the ideik of the heretofore "uuterrified” Democracy of the 7th District fleeing from a contest with, or succumbing to a disjointed, discontented, quarrelsome, disunited, crumbling party—one tliat lias been shirking its principles and changing its name ever since its first defeat, and that has now even abandon ed its organization and resolved itself into an “opposition” party, or a party of “odds and ends,” without any principles wliatev./l Away then, with the idea of “backing out” from a fight with such a parly, merely because its lead ers in the heyday of prosperity, beat us by only the pitiful number of 275* votes among 10,000 veters. _ Why, Messrs. Editors, if there was ever a time for the Democracy of the 7tli District to firmly grasp and raise high its banner and press on to victory, now is the day and now is the hour! Starting out right at first, with a good and glorious old nninc, and sound and whole some principles, it has not changed i.'r name, nor docs it shrink from avowing and maintain ing its rame old principles! Its banner stands ns it did in 1855 and 1857. It floats still proud ly, unaltercil, all over the State, one and the same, while that of the other party has been as suming various phases, until now it has been crumbled upland tlieir organization is aban doned ! Is this the time, then, while the enemy is scattered, and when the “harvest is ripe,” for the soldiers of Democracy to supinely fold their arms, and say in effect “ire give up! we can't Jight!! we are afraiel tee will he whipped!!! Is this the time lor us to look to the "Opposi tion ” for our officers ! I think not Is the De mocracy of tho 7tli so poor, that it has within its raqks none worthy of being a Congressman ? IV here .is the noble and talented Wingfield ? Where is the gifted and meritorious Harper?— where that sterling and uuterrified Democrat T. I*. Safl'old? or that old and talented veteran CoL Campbell? Why, Messrs. Editors, you have also in your midst, ami near your office, a young and able and intrepid Democrat (I- II. liriscoc) one not yet much known in the District but who, if he would take tho field and go out among the people, would fraxzel the Goliath of tho "Opposition" to doll rags! Wc then have a plenty of our own that could make good offi cers, without selecting any of the enemy. Then let us pass the word and again prqutrc for fight Let us select our strongest and best man, and raise up high the good old Democratic banner! And having done this, let us urge our “prodig als" who strayed off in 1855 and 1857, to turn and look upon their old flag and see if they do not find there the same stars and stripes—the same “principles” and “watch words” that they once before fought under. And let us invite them, as brethren, to return to their “first love,” and take shelter again under their “old and true home;” nnd as one of old assures them he will receive them with open aims, and a cheer ing welcome! Let us do this and all will be well! Hut if wo should cower and succumb, and suffer ourselves to be the tools to elevate to high place the leaders of this “Odds and Ends” party, I shall feel that we will merit the con demnation of every true Democrat in the land, and I do earnestly protest against the policy ! • ONE OK THE "UN TERRIFIED.” * Note.—Since the last election, about filly American majority in Washirgton county lias been cut off from this District, and added to the 1st Congressional District Via © t \ to tisl „*■ s l>> I ler t» cl'.- correct, it lias no foundation ent instance.

A despatch from the Emperor, received yes terday at the Tullcries, announced that at five o'clock in the morning the whole French ar my (140,000 men,) headed by his Majesty himself, as commanding the centre, Baraguay d’Hillicrs the right wing, and MacMahon the left, was to make ono vast determined effort to cross the Po, near Valcnza. The day was passed in the greatest and most natural anxi- ot,, •* u,° differem minister)es, an anxiety re flected on the Bonrsc, in spite of the deter mined efforts made to keep the suspense a profound secret, and affecting the funds with out any apparent reason excepting to the ini tiated. At ten o’clock last night another des patch arrived, merely containing a few words not indicative of success: "The cannon is still roaring, and nothing yet is done; the enemy has appeared in snen tremendous force on the opposite bank, that every effort hitherto made to construct our bridges has been useless.— This despatch has not been made public yet, nor will .it be, most likely, until some decided success is obtained and tlio landing is effected. To the general opinion expressed by civilians that the army must cross the Po, nnd that if it does not succeed in doing so to-day it sure ly will to-morrow, military men shake their beads and look grave, aud hint that if the French be repulsed now, tbc attempt must be given up. for tbc Austrians will, of coarse, he re-inforccd, and repair tho lo*oe» they may sustain, while the French liave not the same means at their disposal. The fact of a whole day, from five in the morning till ten at night, being spent in fruitless endeavors to cross a swollen and rapid river under the heavy fire of the enemy’s artillery, tells its own talc, nnd a dreary one it id? Marseilles Correspondence of London Times May ifl. Expenses or the War to France. The expenses of the war are already cnor- I mous, nnd few Frenchmen have any concep tion of them. Independently of the money spent in Franco on the increased army anil navy, tho purchase of provisions and stores,- besides their conveyance to Italy, the recon struction of the materiel, making new equip ments, baying horses, railway fares, and al most an infinity of other items of cost, there arc sent daily from Marseilles 3,000,000 francs in specie, or £120,000. This makcs£43,000,- 000 annually. It is not likely that the expor tation of money to this amount can last; but if it should wc shall scarcely err in estimating the cost of the war at £80,000,000 a year. If we remember that for every 59 francs the State receives on loan it has to incur a debt of 100 francs, it would make the real expendi ture £135,000,000 a year; for France cannot pay the expense of war out of the ordinary re ceipts of taxation. Tha demand fix’merchant shipping appears to be upon the increase Orders have been re ceived to frieght at Marseilles 26,500 tons monthly. Of this ueqrly 20.000 tons will be required for the conveyance of hay alone, for only a common screw press is employed to compress tlic hay, the authorities regarding the hydraulic press as being too intricate, and the hay consequently takes up an enormous quantity of space The remaining G,500 tons arc required for oats, Hoar and other stores. mending what they were about? "The ene my,” responded the infuriated Turcos, point ing eagerly to the Piedmontese soldiers drawn up in a line upon the quay of Genoa. _ It was quite difficult to dissuade them of this idea, and to prevent them from taking by assault a city which awaited them with open arms and with mountains of bouquets. After they were landed, they went in search of supplies, but presently issued from the shops in a state of great excitement, asking of their officers— "What means this ?—not speak French, not speak Arabic! what devils, to be sure. It is clear enough, that they think the world wes made only for French and Arabs. A new sur prise awaits them when they come to see and hear the Croats. Sonnet!,. Of all the charms dear woman wears. Of a1) her many traps and snares. For real effect there'* nought compares With a truly pretty bonnet; For when or wherever yon chanco to meet One that is perfectly modest snd neat. Yon may depend 'tia proof complete That the head has more in than on it. No matter whether she’s pretty or not. How much or how little money she’s got. Whether she lire la a mansion or oot, 'Tis a fact, depend upon it; The woman to make* man happy thro' file, To make a model mother and wile. Is one who, scorning the milliner strife. Wears a plain and tasteful bonnet. Now a bonuet of genuine beauty and grace, _ Worn on the head in its proper place. Shadowing faintly the wearer's face, “Is a thing for a song or a sonnet.” Uut one of those gay and gandy things. Made of rainliows and butterfly wings, A mixture of flowers, ribbons and striugs. Is dreadful, depend upon it. A vulgar mass of “fuss and feather," A little of everything thrown together, As if by a touch of windy weather, A wretched conglomeration— A sort of cup to oatc b the hair, Leaving the bead to ' go It bare,” A striking example of “Nothing to Wear,” la this bonnet abomination. It makes a woman braxen and bold. Assist* her in catching nothing but cold. Is bad on the young, absurd on the old. And deforms what It ought to deck; For look at her face, no bonnet is there. See at the side, it hangs by a hair. View it behied, and yon will declare That the creatnre has broken her neck. No matter where yon may chance to be, N» matter how many women yon see, A promiscuous crowd oc a certain she. You may fully depend upon it, That a gem c f Ihc very rarest kind, A thing most difficult to find, A pet for which we long have pined, Is a perfect “love of a bonnet." The Coolie Trade of Cuba. The Uavanna correspondent of the New Or leans Picayune, in a recent letter, thus alludes to the Coolie trade of that Island: The French ship Alexander Balli, CapL Fer- rau, arrived at this port on the 27th from Ma cao and St Helena, after a voyage‘of 128 days, having on board 393 Coolies, for Cuban service under eight year contract-!. The number of Coolies shipped for Havana from Asiatic ports, according to the record I have kept since the beginning of the enterprise, now amount to 45,- 328, of which 33,447 have been delivered alive, and, G.935 died on the passage. The trade is now pnjttv generally distributed between Eng land, the United States, Spain, France, Holland, Portugal, Bremen, Norway, Chili and Peru, hut not by any means equally. Engtand lias been from the beginning, and is still, by far the r aha fix" - most enterprising and extensive shipper. Her citizens, located here, were among the earliest contractors, and for many years monopolized the trade. Haring made their fortune, liowcvcr,- many of them have retired from the field, and at a fortunate time, as thereby they avoid the obligation to return the emigrants, “after eight This tonnage is independent of what is provi-1 years' service, free of expense, to the ports from ded by the government transports and steam whence they were shipped," as was stipulated frigates. So great are the requirements that I in their contracts. 20,U00f. (£800) have been paid to freight a| These 45,382 emigrants were shipped here in steamer for one voyage to Genoa.

"One—two—three—four—fire—sir; where is the other barrel ?" Full of wrath, he was proceeding to demand the production of the missing cask from the officers of the boat, when, lo! on his getting up for the pur pose from where he was surveying, with char acteristic dignity and gravity, his goods and sundries, it was discovered to his infinite a- musement nnd that of tho bystanders, that he had been sitting on the missing seventh barret AmiiNing Incident* of tlie War, In crossing Mont Cenis, when tlio French soldiers, yielding to the influence of alternate frosts, snow and rain, had relapsed into silence, one of them, belonging to the 55th of the Line, suddenly exclaimed,—“If the good God had had a sack upon his back when he crea ted the world, lie would not have made the mountains so high.” Everybody laughed, of course. Each of these brave fellows was equipped for the campaign, bearing the bur den of four days provisions, and ninety rounds of ammunition. .... . , In a letter from the scat of war, it is stated that of thirty thousand volunteers who have flocked to l’icdmout from all parts of Ha'y’ many belong to the flower of tho nobility and arc possessed of brilliant fortunes.

The allowance granted to the French sol diers is not sumptuous. A recent letter says: “Speaking of the army pay, it is not amiss to mention that the allowance for the keep of French soldiers is six cents for two meals a day. Some of-our friends seem to think that these gallant feUows are fed on pate de foie gras—or, at any rate, that the barrack cooking is quite artistic and delicious. Now the fact is simply this: French soldiers in garrison, have, every day of their lives, two basins of soup, with the strings in it, which they call meat, and perhaps a few bits of onion or vegetable, by way of giv en it a flavor. Besides this, each man has a 11 pounds of coarse bread—nothing more.— When on service, they have a little wine; but otherwise, except on grand , occasions, such as a review, they have none, nor any spirits, beer or coffee. News from Frazer stiver. The latest intelligence from Britisli Colum bia is very discouraging. The “Canoe dig gings,” from which great things are expected, have turned out a failure, and the men who left for there are back to Victoria, disheartened and disappointed The number of miners re turning to California is very large. It looks as if the population of tlio new colonies would be rcUuaed ir. a few months to less than one thou sand, exclusive of Indians. The prospect of the countiy never looked more gloomy. Innovations in lllodern Warfare. Louis Napoleon is charged with slavishly copying the military precedents of bis uncle. Wv think that he will show, before he arrives at the end of his first campagne, that he is not without some military genius of his own. Two acts which he has just performed indicate, we think, the independence of his judgment in military matters. He has sent back the woun ded Austrians without exacting the usual pa role, and he has punished two French grena diers for forcibly, helping themselves in a wino shop, by simply dismissing them from the ranks, with tho observation that no heavier penalty could be inflicted upon them than their being deprived of the opportunity of sharing in the glories of the campaign. There is practical military foresight as well as humanity in these acts. The Emperor re lieves himself of the burden attending the sup port of large numbers of Austrian prisoners, and he scuds them back to convey to their comrades, who are of mixed aud disaffected nationalities, an impression of his humanity and generosity. In this way he advances the objects of the campaign infinitely more than if he were to cucumber Sardinian and French prisons with crowds of poor wounded wretch cs, the support of whom would be a heavy drain upon his resources. It is to be hoped that the example thus set will have the effect of inducing on both sides the relaxation of all thcseqseless practices of the military code, the retention of which in an age like this is as unnecessary os it is cruel. The introduction of moral punishments in the army has {long found advocates. They have been partially tried in time of peace. It has been reserved for Lonis Napoleon to make the experiment in the face of the cpeiny—a test wliich no military reformer has hitherto ventured upon. In the armies of Wellington, an offence sucli as these grenadiers commit ted would have been visited with the lash, and perhaps even death. We believe it will be found that the punishment inflicted in the present c;ise will prove as effective iu enfor cing discipline. The soldier is, after ail, a sensitive being, and disgrace is felt more keen ly by him than bodily pain. If he be not pos sessed of this honorable susceptibility the sooner lie is w<>cded out from the ranks of his comrades the better. In trusting, therefore, to moral influences rather than to severity for the maintenance of military order, the Empe ror is making an experiment, the result of wliich will be watched with interest by the friends of humanity. He seems, iu fact, to independent theories whieii have rendered his political system self-sustaining and obedient to his control.—Herald.

The Emperor Alexander was present at a collection in Par’s for one of the hospitals.— The plate was held to the Emperor by an ex tremely pretty girl. As he gave his louis d’or ho whispered.

But their tenure of life is very frail Debilitated by the long and im moderate use of opium, their constitutions break down on the first exposure, and render them peculiarly liable to any epidemic that may be prevailing. The opium is brought in small quantities, the better to evade the revenue laws, and distributed by Chinese agents of the Eu ropean speculators. But the evil docs not stop with the demoralization of the Coolie. The African race quickly learn the use and become the slave of the enervating narcotic, the evil effect of which is already daily seen on every plantation where the two races have lieen do mesticated together. Origin or the Prairies. Professor Wilber, State Geologist, of Illinois, has recently delivered a series of admirable lectures on hia favorite science. Wc copy from theGennesfe Republic tho,followingab- IIubraii kor Georgia.—Mr. A. F. Clifton struct of his theory on the origin and formation from Mr. J. H. Wash’s place, in Clay co., Ga., of tho parties; informs us that on Sunday morning, the 5th ' ■* ' instant, he counted, ou one stalk of cotton f thirty-one fully developed squares nnd three full blown blossoms. ■“ Paddy’s description of a fiddle cannot he beat: " It was the shape of a turkey and the size of a goose; he turned it over on its back- and rubbed its belly with a stick, and och! SL Patrick, how it did squalc.” How the Indians Make Whiskey.—The Apache Indians have a mode of making whis key which would appear novel to the manu facturers of that article in the Ohio Valley The firing up process is rather slow« yet theoo Apaches seem to get liquor which makes a good "drank” come. The process, according to a correspondent of tbc Arizionian, is as fol lows : The corn is first soaked for twenty-four hours, a hole is then dug in the ground, gen erally in a wigwam, and some dry grass laid on the bottom ;.on this grass the corn is plac ed and a layer of gross over it. Four or fivo times a day warm water is sprinkled over the corn, and at night the family sleep on it to in crease the warmth, and make tbc corn sprout quick. At the end of four or five days the corn is all sprouted ; it is then dried and poun ded fine, put in a kettle, and boiled for five hours; when cooled it is mixed with sugarand flour and left to ferment for twelve hours, when it is ready for drinking. Although not rank to the taste, or fiery, its intoxicating power is very great, aud when an Indiau has a quart or two aboard he don’t care a copper who is President of the United States.

STONE A BROTHER. ihc bay •ociou ith « them to the h oth< they ‘officers interposed, de- light. AU Prof Wilbur adopts tbc theory that at one time—very far hack in its history—this vast country formed a portion of the bottom of the ocean—that through the eruptions caused by the unnatural heat, together with the labor and activity of those master-masons, tho coral in sects, our continent was raised to its present po sition above tho water. To prove this bold proposition, he Tolers to the many indicia of salt water presence, the frequent occurrence of shells which legitimately only belong to ani mals of the sea—the evidence furnished by the rocks, of the labor of zoophytes, unmistakable in its development; the frequent discovery of tlio remain8 of monsters of the goa, deeply im bedded in our limestone system, the existence upon our system of huge boulders,- the former appanages of polar shores, drifted far away to the southwest imbedded in huge frames of ice, and drowned down at length upon tho ocean's bed, whence they arose with our continent— The arguments, if not quite conclusive, are em inently suggestive, ami.should open the eyes of thinking men to the wondrous mysteries bur ied deep in the earth upon which wc so famil iarly tread. The existence of our prairies is accounted for in this wise. The result of the “ drift system’’ was to give to this part of the country a soil of unparalleled fertility; and arising from thin, were the very long grasses which are peculiar to this soil alone; luxuriant and undisturbed, they grew to a great height, and Curly wove tiie surface of the earth with a thick, almost impenetrable covering. In the autumn, when this mass of combustible matter was dry, how easy for a shaft of lightning to send a confla gration from or-o boundary of the country to the other. The sprouting twigs of sturdier growth would pensh by the frequent occur rence of these fires, and hence the treeless ap pearance of the West. To aid the idea, it is claimed, that the Indians, when they did arrive, wliich is suppose d to have been long subsequent to the first period mentioned, regularly burned the prairie grassA, for the purpose of driving the game into more circumscribed quarters, so that it might fall an easier prey to their arrows, and to lessen the difficulty of travelling.—We Illustrated- Another Destructive Fire—Two Steam boats Burned.—At 2 o'clock Wednesday morning, a fire broke out on board the steam er Endeavor, lying at her dock at Pittsburg, which soon spread to the Gazelle, and both boats were burnt to the water’s edge. There was no freight on board of cither boat. The Endeavor was partially insured, having $l,4UO in the Pennsylvania Insurance Company at Harrisburg, 2,000 in the Quaker City Com pany of Harrisburg, and §1,500 in tho Great low - Western at Philadelphia. The Gazelle had but $1,500 insured on her, and that is in the Eureka of Pittsburg. From Washington.—The United States vessels Levant, Wyoming, and Lancaster, which are to compose a part of the Pacific squad ron, w ill visit Chili in view of our unsettled af fairs with that country, aud the recent outra ges ou our citizens. It is known that instruc tions have already been forwarded to our min ister to demand reparation for the wrongs com mitted- There is no probability that the naval force in the Mediterranean will bo increased. The Navy Department has received infor mation of the death of Lient. Ducr, in Florida.

The revolutionary party had been beaten in the south also. Receipts of the Post Office Depart ment.—The General Post Office, says the Washington States, has adjusted the accounts of postmasters for the quarter ending Decem ber 31, 1858.
