Ochiltree, of the Hous ton Telegraph, tells the following in a late letter from Paris: John C. Breckinridge, at a dejeuner, yes terday, told of his last act of authority as Secretary of War. It was on the coast of Florida—the General was pursued by the Federal cavalry; they were beating the country in every- direction; a “friend in need” came to Ins rescue—he was one of Brevard’s gallant old regiment of the Army of Virginia. He said: “Gineral, I have an old boat here that mout carry us to Kurby; anyhow we’ll try it on.” So he worked away all that night raising the boat from where he had sunk it to conceal it from the Federals. He worked faithfully and energetically in patching it up and bailing it, artificially finishing it up and putting in a few provisions. General B. grasped the noble fellow by the hand and said to him : “I will have but few more hours of authority, but such services as you have rendered your country deserve reward. You shall be a Major. I will make out your commission now.” He was exceed ingly thankful, but remained scratching his head in a thoughtful attitude. “Well, my friend,” said the General. “Well, you see, Gineral, thar’s a feller in our regiment what hain't done nothin’, and lie is a Major and a Quartermaster, and if it’s all the same to you, I would jistlike to rank him for 011st.” It is needless to say that the “going out” Secretary of War instantly wrote the battle scarred but humble hero a commis sion as Lieutenant Colonel. A faet. The B§nf.s of Bull Bun.—A correspon dent of the Cincinnati Commercial, writ ing of a visit to the battle field of Bull Run, says: The first sight that greeted my eyes at Manassas Junction was a forcible repdnder ot the war. The huge piles of hones, horse bones, and. sad to say, hupian bones intermingled, lay whitening rl<ht in front of the hotel. They are picked up off the battle field by the owners rt the soil, and carted here for shipment ky the ears, to be ground into fertilizers aJ some mill in Bal timore. The price lyre is “a penny a pound,” 011c of Fairbank’s platform scales ; to weigh the deliveries, and several tons of j bones have been shipped. One man. with a girl to help Mini* collected in two days ciiough to come to §10. My landlord, a Pennsylvania Dutchman named Vainer, brought otk » long and powerful looking bonelfropi behind the bar. saying: “Here now is some poor fellow’s thigh bone.” The was not to inspire cheerful re- flectrtms. In another great heap were piled masses of camp-kettles, musket bar rels, wheel tires, solid shot and broken shells, fragments of swords, bits of wagon gear, old rusty fire locks and the like. This, too. is for the market, the last relicts of the huge debris of destruction of which every battle is the fruitful parent. Communication from Ex*Govcriior Johnson. Savannah, Sept. 27, 1SG7. Editors of the Republican: I see it stated this morning, in one of tiie papers of the city, that a ticket was printed and exten sively circulated, naming myself and oth ers as candidates for the Convention to be held in Georgia. I had hoped that I should not be under the necessity of appearing before the public in relation to this matter; but I should do myself injustice to permit the announcement to pass without notice. I knew nothing of the framing of the ticket. My name is on it without my au thority or consent, and in opposition to my feelings and desires. I atn not a candidate for the Convention, nor shall I be. By birth, a North Carolian. a citizen of Geor gia for the last fifty years, yet having but recently removed to’this city, I feel tliajt modesty and propriety alike*require that I should defer to the claims ot older and well-established citizens, who are in every way as competent to serve the public as myself.

Enameling Ladies’ Faces.—This U the way it is done: You first apply to the female face divine a wash of elder water, whieh removes everj impurity.

You then apply to thi- -ur- faee a perfectly white—a pink wbite, or a cream white enamel. The real Pari- < n- atnel. or tma l de Paris, is slightly t nt«*d.
