“A portion of thut terrible army of General

ready arrived at Genoa, and taken the railway
to Turin. This corps is composed of native
Africans, and arc reputed a set of very devils,
to vvli m the Zouaves are gentlemanly soldiers.
Gen. Yussuf, their commander, is also a native |
of Bedouin. Tn the town of Algiers, on their I
Way to Genoa, they broke loose from all com
mand, attacked the Jew quarters, carried the
barricades tiie latter had been obliged to build
in the streets for their protect! n, and commit

Worth Knowing.—A young lady of this
citv. says the Philadelphia Morning Post,
while in the countrv stepped upon a rusty nail
which run through her shoe nnd foot. The
inflammation and pain was, of course, very
great, and lockjaw was apprehended. A friend
of the family, however, recommended the np
plication of a beet taken from the garden and I
pounded fine, to the wound. It was done and
the effect wn« verv beneficial. Soon the in- !
flammation began to subside, nnd by keeping
on the crushed beet ni fl changing for a frc«h
i one. as the virtue seemed to become impaired.
a speedy cure was effected. Simple bnt effec

The Emperor Napoleon Defl-
MNG HIS POSITION. 1
1 he following are the closing remarks of the '
Emperor Napoleon’s communication of the (
Corps Legislatin':
Hitherto moderation lias been the rule of mv
conduct, but now energy becomes my first du
ty. Franco must now to arms; and I resolute
ly tell Europe I wish not for conquests, but 1 j
am determined firmly to maintain my nation
al and traditional policy.
I observe treaties on condition that they are
not violated against me.
I boldly avow my sympathies with a people ,
whose history is mingled with our own, and
who now groan under foreign oppression.— ,
France has shown her hatred for anarchy.— .
Her will was to give me power sufficient to re- (
thice into subjection the abettors of disorder j
and the incorrigible members of the old fac
tions who jncessantly have been concluding ,
compacts with our enemies.
But she has not for that purpose abandoned j
her civilizing character. Her natural allies
have always been those who desire the ame
lioration of the human race; and when she
draws the sword, it is not to govern—but to
free !
The object, then, of this war is to restore j
Italy to herself—not to impoee upon her a
change of masters; and we shall then have .
upon our frontiers a friendly people, who will ■
owe to us their independence.
We do not enter Italy to foment disorder or '
disturb the power of our Holy Father,whom
we replaced upon hik throne, but to remove 1
Ivin him this foreign pressure, which burdens
the whole peninsula; to help to establish or
der there, based upon lawful and satisfied in 1
LelestS.
We enter this classic ground, rendered illus
trious by so many victories, to seek the foot
•k ps of our fathers. God ip-ant we may be
.worthy of them 1
I am about to place myself at the head of
the army. 1 leave to France the Empress and
m. -on. Seconded by the experience and en
iiL'htineiit of the last Emperor’s surviving bro
th- r. she will understand how to show herself
soi'tliyolt e grandeur of her mission. I con
ide them to the valor of the army which re
mah «in France to keep a watch upon onr
frontiers and guard our homes. I confide
them to the patriotism of onr National Guard.
I confide them, in a word, to the entire people,
wl <i will encircle them with that affection aud
devotedness of which I daily receive so many
proofs.
Courage, then, and union! Our country is
ibmit tos-how the world she has not degener
•ti 'l. T’rovidence will bless our efforts, for
t mit can -I- is holy in the eye of God which
rests on justice, humanity, love of country and
independence I
Spain.
A private letter from Madrid of the 2f>th
<•; - mating from a member of the Liberal
arty, say- that public opinion there is favor
able t i Italy, and would see with pleasure a
Spanish contingent join the Franco-Italian ar
my. just as it was desired that it should take
part in the operations in the Crimea, side by
side with England and Franco.
The Court of Madrid (it goes on to say)
■ ul'i desire to intervene on behalf of the Pope;
; ut. in the meantime, it is with the govern
ment in obseffi ing neutrality. The Ministers
are then decided on neutrality. They say that
family pact and alliance have been fatal to
Spain : that they will remain strictly neutral,
ami leave the nations to get out of the war t.s
be-t they may. I do not doubt that Spain
will maintain this attitude long as'she can.
I suppose that if the Emperor Napoleon
, tries to make her do otherwise, she will seek
the support of England in maintaining it ; but
I if perchance France and England act in con
cert Spain will follow both. In the meantime
the Nunchio frequently confers with the Min
isters of Foreign Affairs, and the latter with
the English and French Ambassadors. Ido
ti.it know what has passed between the Nuncio
aud M. Ci llantes, but I can assure you that
the latter has spoken to them of a project to
bring the Pope to the Balearic Isles, where he
. would reside at the expense of Spain. I doubt
the Emperor’s allowing him to come here.—
The project is the same as that of M. J/artin
t ez de la Rosa, Ambassador to Spain at Romo
in IH4B, during the revolution, when the Popo
f fled from Rome to Gaeta.
The Abmt Worm.—The Chattanooga Ga
• zette says, we regret to learn that this destruc
i ive plague has already made its appearance in
! this county, and is making sad havoc in the
wheat fields and meadows. We arc informed
of its appearance on several farms and in the
‘ wheat fields, entirely stripping the stalks, and
t destroying the crops. Some fine meadows
have been mowed down close to the ground
scarcely leaving a sign that grass hail grown
•it the land. The little destroyers arc increas
ing in numbers, and migrating from farm to
■ farm. The prospect for the farmers in this
i eeunty for the present year, is truly gloomy.
. Many farmers are not yet done planting corfl
—the wheat, grass and fruit crops destroyed—
but a-very limited crop of oats sown, it will re
quire more rigid economy and unceasing in
dustry to make the two ends meet, until anoth
er season.

Matt. Peel.—We have already announced
the recent demise, at Buffalo, of this clever and
popular perfiriHer. We find the following
facts in the Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat, of the
sth inst;
The real name of the deceased was Matthew
Flannery. He was horn at Brooklyn in 1829,
and was, consequently, thirty years of age. —
About 1847 he commenced his career as a pub
lic performer in the Campbell Troupe, in com
pany with Luke West and others. With the
latter he was extremely iutimatc, and Wests
death, which occurred very suddenly in Bos
ton four years ago, affected him deeply. As
we have seen. Peel’s last thought was of his
friend. Together, Peel, with the bones and
West with the tambourine, they were sufficient
in themselves to give reputation for humor to
the dullest troupe that ever traveled. Matt
Peel aud Luke West are familiar names in ev
ery part of the country, north, south, east and
west. Mr. Peel was a genial companion and
a thorough ‘‘good fellow.” Ho has a host of
friends to mourn his loss. The immediate
cause of his death was a disease of the heart,
though he has been suffering from a pulmano
ry affection for some time. Not long ago he
was prostrated entirely by an attack of hemor
rhage of the lungs, and compelled to desist
from playing for several weeks.
Negro Pastor for White People.
A gentleman of Mississippi, who was form
erly a resident of Giles county, in this State,
has furnished us with the following statement,
for the truth of which he vouches :
“On Lynn Creek, Giles county, there is a
Hardshell Baptist Church, supported by a
number of wealthy communicants of that “per
suasion,” who for several years past have had
for their regular pastor a negro man, black as
the ace of spades, named George —known as
Old Georgd’ and belonging to the
estate of one Matthew Bently, deceased.—
George is said to be a most excellent man and
a good preacher. Somethne ago, he had a no
ted public discussion, lastingjfour days, with a
white preacher, on the subject of Baptism,
from which the white man is said to have come
off (if any difference) ‘second best.’ The
Church'wants to buy George, but he is unwil
ling to te sold out of his master’s family, and
is withal a regular Southern pro-slavery par
son. George is the ‘preacher in charge’ of a
large congregation, nearly all of whom are
slaveholders, and who pay him a salary of
S6(K) or 8700 for his pastorial services.”—
Grand Junction ( Tbnn.) Quid Nunc.
This calls to mind an instance of a negro
preaching to white congregations which came
under our observation in our boy days in the
vicinity of Huntsville, Ala. The Rev. Mr.
Allen of the Presbyterian denomination, a man
cf fine literary attainments and the principal
ofthe “Green Academy,” in Huntsville, at
that time, owned a negro servant whom he had
edr’nted, and who. shelving a pious disposi
tion andinclinaticMi topreach, he instructed in
divinity. When parson Allen would go out
froi't home to preach on Saturdays *aud Sun
days i.e took the boy with him as body servant.
They occupied the pulpit together, and the ne
gro frequently gave out the hymn and offered
up the opening prayer, and after the master
concluded his «rmon, often closed the service
with an exhortation. After a few years, he
frequently took the minister’s place in the pul
pit, and in case of his master’s indisposition
filled his appointments. He often preached in
Huntsville to full and anxious congregations ;
and it finally became a matter of dispute
as to which was the best preacher.— Col. Sun.
CnE.trLANDS in Alabama. —A subscriber to
the Southern Cultivator, writing from the
neighborhood of Yalhermoso Springs, Morgan
county, says:
"You are perhaps not aware that largo bod
ies es good land may be obtained here at low
rates; such lands as will make from 6 to 10
( barrels of corn, and from 1000 to 1500 pounds
of cotton per acre. On the mountain plateau
, dividing North and South Alabama, (from 60
to 80 miles across,) soil dark sandy loam, and
■which contains superior smaller bodies of black
land iu the bottoms, land may yet be entered
at 121 ■eents per acre. This is tn my opinion
one of fraoi?t countries for stock farms in the
Sontla The fruit crop never fails there. Do
send us soineof your thinking Georgia fanners,
t o give the n ; rtives here some lessons in agri
culture.” _
