There died recently in Paris a gallant I the duties of the elevated and responsible
soldier a Marshal of France, who may be | station to which he has been elected ”—
taken as a fair type of the French officer ; We are further asked to remember that
of the present day. Pierre Francois Jo
seph Bosquet passed a singularly adven
turous life—a life of camps, boudoirs and
gambling tables. He was in his prime the
handsomest man in the French army. He
was the most reckless gambler, the most
profligate roue, one of the most skillful
swordsmen in his regiment, and one of
the bravest. Ho was always occupied
either by duels, lighting Arabs or making
love. Twenty campaigns emlureu in Af
rica gained him reputation and rank.
From a Lieutenant of Artillery he rose,
step by step and by force of real merit,
to the post ot General. When the Cri
mean war broke out he was at the bead of
a division of infantry, and displayed tal
ents and qualities which rendered him con
spicuous among the host of French warri
or chiefs. It was rumored that the Em- j
peror feared his popularity and was jeal- |
ous of it; for knowing him to be the most j
sagacious officer in his army he suffered ,
Canrobert and I’elissier to be appointed I
over him. IJosquet was a laughing good- I
humored fellow, and took his fate kindly, j
Adored by his soldiers, in favor with all j
Lis brother officers, and satisfied with the j
renown he was gaining, he could submit I
to a temporary mortification. The coarse, !
unprincipled and depraved St. Arnatid—
that man of iron nerve, who almost died
in bis saddle rather than yield to disease
—loved Bosquet like a brother. T he two
were inseparable, and were members of
the famous group of rirrvrs who, when
Louis Napoleon was President, gathered
around him for orgie or conspiracy. Bos-
.quet lost his best friend when St. Arnauld
died, though the battle of the Alma was
an exploit more fri-ndly to him than any
Marshal, for it sent his name triumphant
ly to Paris, where, he was lauded as a hero.
l Inkerraann lie distinguished himself by
liis generalship and his courage. They
say, regardless of his rank, he dashed in
to the fight with the ardor of a subaltern.
His glittering sabre strewed the ground
with corpses, and liis men cheered in a
frenzy of excitement at the daring of
their chief. Bosquet’s succor to Lord
Raglan’s troops in a moment of pciil, ren
dered him a favorite with the English ar-
mv. Parliament voted him formal thanks
for this exploit, and the Sultan decorated
him with the order of (lie Medjidic of the
first class—an honor accorded before only
to sovereigns and piinces of thc 4 blood.
Bosquet was at the Mamclon Vert and at
t!ie taking of Malakoff, fighting always
in the. bloodiest manner. It was said of
him, like St. A maud, that lie grew, crazy
at the siirbt and smell of blood, and woe
then to the man within reach of his sabre.
When he went hack to France the Empe
ror could not avoid taking marked notice
of him. lie was successively made riena-
tor, Marshal of France. Knight of the
Bath fin England) and Knight of the Le
gion of Honor. His honors were rich and
plenty. They gave him a royal income,
and like a rollicking soldier ho spent it.
Bosquet’s equipages, Bosquet’s dinners
and Bosquet’s amours were the talk of all
Paris, li is bearing was a fine one, the
rough experience of camps had given him
a manly grace, and in the prime of life lie
seemed determined to drain the cup of
pleasure to the dregs. There were ru
mors in the dubs of the sad and profli
gate revels which Bosquet, the Emperor
and tLe Count de Fleury held at ff t. Cloud
palace. Bosquet’s name was on every
tongue. He was a era/ lion. One bright
morning, however, liis time came, lie
paid the penalty of his immortality, with
his death wound. The bright eyes of the
wife of a young inferior officer had at
tracted him and his prestige, his cliivalric,
generous ways, his gallant, military pres
ence proved a poor lady’s ruin. Discov
ered by the outraged husband, be was not
allowed time to defend himself, and, help
less an 1 unarmed, he received the aveng
ing sivnrd-dade deep in his breast. The
warm blood nearly spurted forth the gay
Marshal's life, but finally the wound was
staunched, and a suffering, almost dying
man, he was conveyed to his own resi
dence. The story was hushed as much
as possible. A duel, Ac., were giv
en as the cause of liis illness, but soon the
entire adventure became known, and the
clubs chattered andgossipped freely about
it. The Emperor protected the young
officer at Bosquet’s request. He. went
through a mock trial and was acquitted,
lathe Italian War, recently, lie served
with distinction. All this time—nine
weary mouths—Bosquet lingered on, day
after day, liis wound slowly killing him.
Stretched on a sick bed, the oucc dashing
officer must have indulged in sad reflec
tions. They say lie prayed and prayed
and prayed for death. Probably nobody
thought of offering him the consolations
of religion—h >\v they sneer at those
things there—though the woman for whom
lie was dying and an affectionate sister
gave hitu every sympathy and care. Fi
nally, the spirit fled, and at the age of 51,
the hero Bosquet is honored by a gorgeous
imposing funeral. What a lamentable fi
nale, and is'nt the whole career peculiar
ly French?
I.IIYC0IjX , 8 ISAl'ClBAIi AD9BE1.1. I
Uellaic Citizens of the United States :
In compliance with a custom as old as the j
government itself. I appear before you to ad j
diess you brietly. and to lake in your presence j
tha oath prescribed by the Constitution of the'
United States to be taken by the President
before he enters on the execution ot Lis of
fice.
1 do not consider it necessary, at present. f >r
me to discuss those matters of Administration,
about which there is no special anxiety or ex
citement. Apprehension seems to exist among
the people of t e Southern States, that by the ac
cession of a Republican Administration, their
property, and their peace and personal security
are to be endangered. There lias never been any
reasonable cause for such apprehension. Indeed,
the most ample evident- • to the contrary, has all !
the while existed and teen open to their inspec- j
lion. It is found in nearly nil the published
speeches of him, who now addresses y ou. I do j
but quote from one of those speeches when I de
clare, that I have no purpose directly or indirect
ly, to interfere with the institution of slavery, in
the States where it exists I believe I have no
lawful right to do so, and I have no inclinarion to
do so. Those who nominated and elected me,
did so with full knowledge that I had made this
and many similar declarations, and iiad never re
canted them. And more than this, they placed
in the Platform for my acceptance, and as a law to
themselves and to me, the clear and emphatic res-
! olution which 1 now read.
Ucsidced, That the maintenance inviolate of the :
rights of States, and especially the light of each
State to order and control its own domestic ins Li- j
tulions according to its own judgment exclusively,
constitutional right it might, in a moral point of
view, justify revolution. It certainly would if
such right were a vital one. Dot sucu is not our
case, all the vita! rights of minorities and individ
uals are so plainly secured to them by affirm uions
amt negation, guarantees, and prohibitions in the
Constitution teat controversies never arise con
cerning them. But no organic iaw can ever be
framed with a provision specifically applicable to
every question which may occur in practical
administration. No foresight can anticipate,
nor any document of reasonable length con
tain express provisions for all feasible ques
tions,
tilur! fagidves from labor be surrendered by
national or by State authority ? The constitution
does not expressly say. Must Congress protect
slavery in tlie Territories ? The Constitution does
expressly say. From questions of this class
spring .-ill our constitutional controversies and
we duvide upon them into majorities and minori
ties. li ihe minority' will not aequo see the ma
jority must or the Government must cease, there
io no oiu i alternative for continuing the Govern
ment, hut acquiesence on one side or the other.
Jf a minority iu such case will secede rather than
acquiesce, they m .ke a precedent which iu turn
will divide and ruin them, for a minority of their
own will secede from them whenever a majority
refuses to bo controlled by such minority. For
instance why may not any portion of a new con
federacy a year or two, lieuoo arbitrarily secede
again precisely as portions of the present Union
claim to secede from it ? All who cherish dis
union sentiments arc now being educated to the
exact temper of doing this. Is there such perfect
identity of interests among the States to compose
a new Union and prevent renewed secession.

by w hicli authority it is done, and should any one j
in any case be content that his oatu shall go un-

how it shall be kept ! Again, in any law upon i
this subject, ooglu not all the safeguards of liber-
j ty, known in civilized and humane jurisprudence j urea k
list confess that if the policy ot the Government
upon viial questions affecting the whole people is
to lie irrevocably lixt-d by decisions of the Su
preme Court, the instant that they are made in
ordinary litigation between parlies, in personal
actions, the people will have ceased to be their
own rulers—having to that extent, practically re
signed th. ir Government into the hands of that
eiuiuout tribunal. Nor is there, iu this view'any
assault upon the Court or the Judges, it is a
duty from which they may not shrink, to decide
cases properly brought before them, and it is no
lault ot theirs if others seek to turn their decisions
to political purposes.
One seciiou of our country believes that slavery
is right, and ought to be extended, white the oth
er believes that it is wrong, and ought not io bo
extended. This is the only substantial dispute.

law can ever be in a community where the moral

not clearly understand how it happened
that tlie President elect, who was supposed
to be a man of pluck, should make that
extraordinary ltegira from Harrisburg to
Washington in disguise the other night;
but we have now' the high authority ol the
Chevalier Webb tor the fact that “Old
Abe” had nothing to do with it. It ap
pears according to Webb, that it was
Gen. Scott and (Jen. Seward, “the two
most distinguished men in the country”—
Air. Lincoln, according to Webb again,
being nobody—who arranged, directed
and commanded the whole affair. These
men; quoth Chevalier Webb in liis paper
of yesterday, “assume the responsibility

chafed at this, and recklessly disregard
the interference of liis friends. But not
so the President elect of the .United

States, we are assured by Webb, “had no

permitted to judge of the testimony upon
which his friends acted; but was purpose- j ■ *L^n Kp n^:
ly kept in the dark.” So that his keep
ers, Scott and Seward, who had charge of
him, as if he was a rhinoceros or an ele
phant. undertook to convey him safely to
Washington, without even telling him the
reason why. Mr. Lincoln, however, was
restive; he wanted to bolt out of the traces,
lnit hc dared not do it. “The two most
distinguished of his countrymen;” says
ebb, “had purposely relieved him from
all responsibility in the premises and as-
sumed it themselves; and consequently it
would have been a gross disregtlrd of his
duty to the nation, if the President elect,
without any knowledge in the premises,
had presumed to disregard the injunctions
of Scott and Seward. To have done so
would not only have been inexcusable,
but absolutely reckless, fool-hardy and
nicked, and would have gone far to prove

reservatious, and with no purpose to construe the
Constitution or laws by auy hypocritical rules.
And, while 1 do not choose now to specify partic
ular acts of Congress as proper to be, enforced. 1
do suggest that it will be much safer for all, both
in official and private stations, to couform to, and
abide by all those acts which stand unrepealed,
than to violate any of them trusting to final im
punity iu having them held to be unconstitu
tional.
It is seventy-two years since the first inaugura
tion of a President under our national Constitu
tion. During that period fifteen different and
greatly distinguished citizens have iu succession
administered the executive branch of the Govern
ment. They have conducted it through many
perils, and generally with great success. Yet
with all this scope for precedent. 1 now euter upon
ttie same task for the brief constitutionil term ot
four years, under great and peculiar difficulty. A
disruption of the Federal Union heretofore only
menaced is now formidably admitted. I hold that
in contemplation of uuiversa) iaw and of the Con
stitution, the Union of these States is perpetual.
Perpetuity i.s implied if n it expressed in the fun
damental law of national governments. It is safe
to assert that no government proper, ever had a
provision in its organic law, for its own termina
tion. Continue to execute all the express provis
ions of our National Constitution, and the Union
will endure forever, it bring impossible to destroy
it except by some action, not provided for iu the I
instrument itself-
Again, if the United States be not a Govern
mem proper, but an association of States in the j
nature ot a con'ract merely, can it, ns a contract
be practically unmade by less than all tho parties
who made it / One parly to a contract may vio
late it—break it, so to speak—but docs it not re
quire all to lawfully rescind it ? Descending from
tnese general principles, we find ‘.he proposition,
that, in legal coutempla ion, tlie Union is perpet
ual, confirmed by the history ot the Union itself.
The Union is much older than the Constitution.
It was formed, in fact by the articles of association
in 1774. It was matured and continued by the
Declaration of Independence in 177f>. It was
further matured, and the faiih of all the then thir
teen States was expressly plighted, and engaged
that it should be perpetnal. By the articles ot
Confederation, in ]77f, and finally in 17^7, one ot
the declared objects for ordaining and establish
ing tlie Constitution, was to form a more perfect
Uuiou. But if the destruction of the Union by
oue, or by a part only of tho Slates, bo lawfully
possible, tho Union is less perfect than before the
Constitution—having lost the vital element of
perpetuity.
It follows, from these views that no State, up
on its own mere motion, cau lawfully go out of the
Union—that resolves and ordinances to that effect
arc legally void, and that acts of violence, within
any State, or Stares, against tho authority of the
United States, are insurrectionary or revolution
ary, according to circumstances. I therefore, con
sider that iu view of the Constitution and tho
laws, tho Union is tinbio .eu, and to the extent of
my ability, I shall take care, as the Constitution
itself expressly enjoins upon me to do, that the
laws of the Union shall be faithfully executed in
all the States. Doing this, I deem to be only a
simple duty on my part, and 1 shall pet form it so
far as practicable, unless my riglilutl masters, the
Ainericau people, shall withhold tile requisite
means, or in some autlieiiiative manner, direct
the contrary. I trust that this wili nut be regard
ed as a menace, but only as the declared purpose
of the Union, that it will constitutionally defend
and maintain itself.
In doing this, there needs to be no bloodshed,!
or violence, and there shall be none, unless forced
upon the National authority.
The power confided to me will be used to hold,
occupy, and possess the propert} - and places be
longing to the Government, and to collect the
duties and imporis; but beyond wbat may be
necessary for these objects, time will be no inva
sion, no using of force against or among ihe peo
pin anywhere. Where hostility to tho Uiitedj
States, in any interior locality, shall be so great j
and so universal as to prevent competent resident. I
citizens from holding the Federal offices, there
will be no attempt to force obnoxious strangers
among the people for that object. Vi bite the
strict legal light may exist in the Government to
enforce the exercise of these offices, the attempt to
do so would be so irritating ami so clearly imptuc-
livable with all, that 1 deem it better to iorego lor ;
the time the uses of such offices.
The mails,.unless repelled, will continue !o be
furnished in all parts of the Union. 8n far us pos
Bible, the people everywhere shall have that sense
of perfect security, which is most favorable to ,
calm thought and reflection. The courso heie iu- ’
uicated will be followed unless current events and i
experience shell show a modification or change J
to be proper and in every case and exigency my j
best discretion will be exercised according to cir
cumstances actually existing, and with a view |
and hope of a peaceful solution of the national
troubles and the restoration of fraternal sympa
thies and affections. That there are persons in
one section or another who seek to destroy the
Union at ad events, and are glad of any pretext to
do it, I will neither affirm or deny, but it there be
such, I need address no word to them. To those,
however, who really love the Union, may I not
speak. Before entering upon so grave a mutter as
the destruction of our imtioual iabric with all its
memories, and its hopes, would it not be wise to
ascertain precisely why we do it ? Will you
hazard so desperate a step while there is any pos
sibility tbat any portion of the ills you fly front
have no real existenco.
Will you while the certain ills you fly to are
greater than all the real ones you fiy from f Will
you risk commission of sofearlula mistake? All pro
fess to be content in the Union, if all Constitutional
rights can be maintained. Is it true then that
auy right, plainly written in the Constitution, has
been denied ? 1 think not. Happily the human
mind is so constituted tbat no party can reach to
the audacity of doing this. Think, if you can,
of a single instance in which a plainly writ
ten provision of the Constitution has ever been
denied.
If by the mere force of numbers, a majority
should deprive a minority of any clearly written
bo perfectly cured, and it would be worse in both
cases alter the separation ot the sections than be
fore.
The foreign Slave Trade, now imperfectly sup
pressed, would br ultimately revived without re
striction in one section, while fugitives slaves
now only partially surrendered, would not be sur
rendered at ail by the other. Physically speak
ing, we cannot separate. We cannot remove our
respective sections from each other, nor build an
impassible wall between them. A husband and
wiie may be divorced and go out of the presence
and beyond the reach of each other, but the dif
ferent parts of our country cannot do this ; they
cannot but remain tace to face, and intercourse,
either amicable or hostile, must continue bewceen
them. Is it possible then to make that intercourse
more advantageous or mow; satisfactory after sep
aration than before 7 Gan aliens make treaties
easier than friends can make law ? Can treaties
he more faithfully enforced between aliens than
laws can among friends >
Suppose you go to war, you cannot fight al
ways, and when, after much loss on boath sides,
and tio gain on cither, you cease fighting, the
identical old questions as to terms of intercourse
are again upon you. This country, with its insti
tutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it
Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing
government they can exercise their constitutional
rig/it of amending it, or their levolutionary right
to dismember or overthrow it.
I cannot be ignorant of the (act that many
worthy aud patriotic citizens are desirous ot hav
ing the national C'onstitut on amended. While I
make no recommendation of amendment, I fully
recognise the rightful authority of the people over
the whole subject, to he exercised in either of
tiie modes prescribed in the instrument itself,
and 1 should, under exisiing circumstances, favor
rather than oppose, a fair opportunity being oppos
ed the people to act upon it. I will venture to add,
that to ine the Convention mode seems preferable,
in tiiat it. allows amendments to originate with
the people themselves, instead of only permitting
them to take or reject propositions originated by
others, not especially chosen for the purpose, and
which might net he precisely such as they would
wish to cither accept or refuse. I understand a
proposed amendment to the Constitution, which
amendment, however, 1 have not seen, has passed
Congress to the effect, that the Federal Govern
ment shall never interfere with the domestic in
stitutions of the States, including that of persons
h» Id to service. To avoid misconstruction of
" hat I have said, I depart from my purpose not
to speak i f particular amendments so far as to
say. that holding such a provision to now be. im
plied constitutional law. I have no objection to
ns hpim; made express and irrevocable. The chief
Magistrate derives all liis authority from the peo-
pie, and they have conferred none upon him to
fix terms for the separation of the States The
people themselves can do this also if they choose,
but the executive as such lias nothing to do with
it. His duty is to administer the present govern
ment as ii come to his hands, and to transmit it
unimpaird by him to his successor. Why should
there not be a patient confidence in the nltimate
justice of the people ? Is there any better or equal
hope in this world ? In our present differences, is
either party without faith of b -ing in the right, if
flic Almighty Ruler of nations, with his eternal
truth and justice be on your side ol the North or
on yours of the South, that truth aud justice will
surely prevail by the judgment of the great tri
bunal—the American people.
By tho frame of Government under which we
livo, this fame people have wisely given their
public servants but little power for mischief, and
have with equal wisdom piovided for the return of
that little to their own hands at very short inter
vals. While the people retain their virtue and
vigilance, no Administration, by any extreme
ot wickedness or folly, can very seriously in
jure tlie Government in the short space of four
years.
My countrymen, one and all, think calmly and
well upon this whole subject; nothing valuable
can be lost by taking time, if there be an object to
hurry any of yon, iu hot haste, to a step which
you would never take deliberately, tbat object will
be frustrated by taking time, but no good object
can he frustrated by it. 8uch of you as are now
. j dissatisfied, still have tho old Constitution unim
paired, andun the sensitive point, the laws of vour
own framing, under and when the new Adminis
tration will have uo immediate power if itsliould
change either.
If it were admitted tbat J'ou who are dissatis
fied, hold the right side iu the dispute, there still
is no single good reason for preeeiptate action
Intelligence, patriotism, Christianity and a firm
reliance on Him who has never yet forsaken this
favored land, are still competent to adjust in the
bc.-t way all our present difficulties.
in your hands my dissatisfied friends and coun-
tivir.en, and not in mine is tho momentous issue
of civil war—the Government will not assail you.
You can have no conflet without being yourselves
the aggressors. You have uo oath registered in
heaven to destroy the Government while 1 shall
have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and
defend it. I am loth to close. We are not ene
mies, but friends, we must not be enemies, though
passions may have strainei it must not break our
bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory
sketching from every battle field and patriot's
grave to every living heart and hearth-stone, all
over this broad land will yet swell the chorus of
the Union when again tomhed as surely they
"ill be, by the better angels of our nature.

('npi<M!.-ili«» of fiacta Termination of Ike
Civil War in Naples.
The Canadian brings thu important intelligence
of the surrender of Gaeta to the troops of Victor
Emanuel Notwithstanding his boasted determi
nation ot finding a grave beneath its ruins, Frau-
cis tho Second lias been glad to avail himself ot
the moans of escape so providentially placed at
his disposal hy the French Emperor. The garri
son are to be kept prisoners until Messina is giv
en up by the loyalists, which it is lo be presumed
will be at once done, from the utter hopelessness
atteudiug the further prosecution of the struggle.
Thus aiiottier important step has been accom
plished in the’consolidation of ihe new Italian
kingdom. The stand made by Francis at Gaeta
constituted a serious obstacle to its progress, and
notwithstanding the geueraliy favorable reception
of Victor EiUJiiuel iu his recent tour through liis
uew acquisitions, it kept the friends of Italy in a
state ot the most anxious suspense aud disquietude.
But it was not merely because it continued to in
spire the reactionists with confidence that it was
desirable that au end should speedily bo put to it.
The conduct of Louis Napoleon in connection
»ith tins matter has been so equivocal that it
gave rise to the belief that ho secretly encouraged
the obstinacy, almost amounting to heroism, with
which the King of Naples defended his last
stronghold. There are good grounds for this im-
pressiou. He ii-.s cuing to (ns scheme of a con
federation until the firmness and patriotism of the
Itauan people have compelled a change of pur
pose, aud now it is probably owing to liis chang
ed convictions that Francis has been induced to
abaudou the only hepe that remained to him of
recovering his kingdom
The capitulation of Gaeta has, however, auoili-
er importance from that attaching to the removal
of civil dissensions and warfare from tho Neapol
itan soil. It decides the fate of Rome, so far as
the iuterfereuce of France is concerned. It is im
possible, after receding step by step from all the
positions which he has obtained in opposition to
the aspiratious of the Italian people, that the Em
peror can continue no longer lo keep an afiny
there. Italy w ithout Rome, would be but an ag
gregation ot communities without a centre of in
tellectual file. What Baris is to France, the
Eternal City is to her. There alone the immense
power which the new kingdom is destined to wield
in the future can timl a fitting embodiment. Its
g,eatness wili only be fully acknowledged when

The Irish opposat to Coercion. — Hie Boston Pi
lot says that it has been ascertained that tlie five
thousand Irishmen who comp is * nearly one half
of the standing army of the United States, are un
willing to make war upon any portion of the
American people. They abhor civil war. They
arc to a man opposed to coercion. Hava they lied
from the coercion of England tyranny at home to
become the cruel instrument of the coercion of
their fellow countrymen in Southern States! Far
from it. Show to the Irishmen of America a for
eign foe and none will be so prompt as they to
take the field and lepel the invader; but to draw
their sword against their fellow countrymen of
the South tigh.ing for their own liberty and their
own fireside, they have no heart.
