—A New Mnwllon In Parte.
According to the Paris correspondent of the
London -Star, there is a Zouave in Paris whose
gills of healing rival those of Dr. Newton, who
was much talked of in New York sometime
ago. The Star'* correspondent says:
“ The great novelty of the day, and the sub- i
ject of all conversation, is the miraculous gift of
healing possessed by a Zouave of the naniejot 1
Jacob, who, by the mere exercise of bis will, '■
performs daily the most extraordinary cures of ■
paralyzed persons, who for years have been un
able to move without assistance. The Zouave
receives no payment for the boon be confers ;
he is perfectly unassuming in manner, and does
not attempt to explain by what means he ac
complishes the cures he undoubtedly effects.
His regiment is quartered at Versailles, but iu
consequence of the difficulty the poor experi
enced in reaching the only portion ot this bar
rack in which lie Was allowed to receive his pa
tients, the Count de Chateauvillaid, himself a
paralytic, offered him the use of several rooms
in his hotel, where Zouave Jacob daily admin
isters relief to thousands who flock from all
parts. The Count publishes in La Petite Presse
a plain statement of his own experience in the
efficacy of Jacob's influence. lie drove in his
carriage, accompanied by his wife, to the manu
factory of M. Du Noyet, where Jacob was en
gaged with several poor and disabled patients.
The Count, who had been paralyzed lor years,
was supported by his twit man and a workman,
who obligingly lent him his arm from his car
riage to the Mills, where he was allowed to take
a place in the circle of the sick surrounding Ja
cob.
“ Persons were being transported on litters, or
carried in men’s arms to his presence, many be
ing so utterly helpless as to be unable to sit up
right, and only able to support themselves by
leaning against each other. As soon as the
room was full, Jacob entered, and said: ‘ Let no
one speak until I question him, or I shall go
away. Perfect silence ensued. The Zouave-
then went from one sick peison to another, tell
ing each exactly the disease from which be or
siie was suffering. Then to the paralytics he
simply said, * Rise.’ The Count, being of the
number, arose, and that without the slightest
difficulty. In about twenty minutes Jacob dis
missed the crowd. M. De Chateauvillaid walked
to Isis carriage without the slightest difficulty,
and when his wile wished to express her grati
tude to Jacob, he replied that he had no time to
listen, for he had other patients to attend to.
Medical men are themselves taken by surprise,
but the. facts are not contradicted.”
In a later letter, the same writer says:
“The ‘Zouave Cuerisseur’ is decidedly the lion
of the day. The importance attached by the
puhiic, as well as by the press, to the soialisant
cures operated by this private affords a striking
indication of the temper ol the public appetite
in this country towards supernatural agency.
I ’ranee is a Catholic nation, and cannot do with
out miracles. To many the feats accomplished
by the said Zouave appear as a delusive farce
and extravagancy of superstition ; but to many
more J am assured it is a serious, all-absorbing
faith. Scores of people in Paris, as well as Ver
sailles, are actually made crazy by the miracles
operated by Monsieur Le Zouave, lie has cre
ated the greatest curisosity, and hundreds of
men and women of character and ability now
seek opportunities to witness and investigate the
phenomena produced by Jacob, Le Zouave.
“If this Jacobis a mere impostor, which many
persons broadly assert, it is nevertheless confess
ed by careful and candid investigators that he is
most successful in concealing his imposture. The
fact is that Jacob, disdaining the former mani
festations of spiritualism, which merely consist
ed in rocking, lifting, rapping, or tapping, has
had the good sense to turn his mind towards
things of ordinary and tangible utility. He does
not pretend to introduce you to Socrates and
Solomon, to put you in communication with
Voltaire or Alfred de Musset, and offer to de
scribe to you the scenery of the planet Jupiter
or the star Aldeharan; but he, more practical
and matter of fact, undertakes to rid you of
rheumatism, gout, amaurosis, palsy, Ac. For
startling effects, the phenomena which he pro
duces arc worthy of the age of Michael Scott.”
Matrimonial Emblems.—The increase
the variety of goods adapted to matrimonial an
niversaries has been quite surprising during the
last few years. The two precious metals were
formerly the only tilings thought worthy to
figure in such celebrations, and the silver and
gold weddings were the only ones commemo
rated.
But a fashion arose not long ago of sub-divi
ding still further the cycles of married felicity',
perhaps because of the increasing cost of tlic
precious metals, and also, perhaps, because it
was not found safe to wait quite so long in these
days of “ incompatibility ” and Indiana divorce
courts. Appropriate symbols were, therefore,
udopted to suggest gifts for briefer anniversaries,
and wo gradually came to have tin, wooden,
leather, and glass weddings, representing re
spectively, as we are told by experts, the pas
sage ot ten, five, three years and one, of married
life.
The kind of household goods given of these
several materials is useful iu its way, and the
custom has no doubt proved of assistance to
struggling young housekeepers, though it has
the objection that articles are often duplicated
to a ridiculous extent. We have heard of a lady,
for example, who received three tin-kitchens,
live nutmeg graters, and seven tin bread-trays,
iu this way. On the whole, however, the idea
is good, and the subject is chiefly mentioned
here to call attention to another article lately
added to the list of commemorative wedding
symbols. This is linen. A Providence editor
has received an invitation to attend a linen wed
ding in Newport. The anniversary period is
not stated, but may perhaps be guessed from the
character of the gifts.
How Napoleon Travels.—The special train
iu which Napoleon went with his suit from Paris
Vo Salzburg, is described as exceeding in comfort
and elegance anything of the kind that has hith
erto been known. Tho train consisted G f nine
carriages, communicating with ol [j er
tastefully decorated bridges. the middle was
a haudsome sitting-room, furnished with chairs,
ottomans, Solas, mireore, pictures, clocks and
cliandeliors. On one side of this room was the
dining-room, and on the other the Emperor’s
study. l*j the middle of the dining-room there
was a table, capable ol beiug extended or con
tracted at pleasure, with easy chairs placed
parallel to the sides ot the carriage. The Etn-
jieror’s study contained an elegant writing table,
a clock in the style of the renaissance, a ther,
mometer, a barometer and a telegraph apparatus-
by means of which telegraphic communication
was established with the apartments ol the va
rious Court officials traveling with ILis Majesty.
Next to the study was the bedroom of the Em-
jieror and Empress, with two beds placed trans
versely against the sides ot the carriage. Two
dressing rooms were attached to the hied room.
The remaining carriages consisted of a kitchen,
a wine cellar, aud the apartments of the Emper
or’s suite. There was also a conservatory filled
with the choicest flowers.—Pull Mull Gazette.
Death of Proiulneut Citizens.
The Albany Sews of the 17th instant, contains
the following sad intelligence:
“ Death op J. P. Strozie'r.—We regret to
anuouuce the death ol this excellent man and
citizen, which occurred ou Saturday last, on his
plantation near our city. The community has
lost a good citizen, and the neighborhood a good
man, and the poor a benefactor. lie was buried
in our cemetery on last Sunday.
“ Our community is growing poorer. The in- |
crease of deaths among our promiuent eiliz.ens, i
during the past lew mouths have been tearful.— i
We have lost, in the past year, Dr. Hardwick, (
C. W. Rawsou, Esq., Dr. Chan Hill, Perry Dun

We notice also the following announcement
ot one of Savaunah’s old and most prominent
merchants iu the Xetcs d Herat;] of the 18th
instant :
“The melancholy intelligence was received :
here yesterday ol the death of Edwin E. Hertz.,

A MUJerlte Perplexed About making Pur
chase*.
A recent expected fulfillment of a prediction
of the end of the world gave rise to very queer
adventures in some parts of Connecticut, where
the prospects of sublunary things for a time
were considered very precarious and uncertain.
The Hartford Time* tells the following:
A few days since a rather rustic, solemn-vis-
aged individual entered one of our fashionable
shoe stores, and after having saluted one of the
gentlemanly clerks with a “How d’ye do?”
said:
“ I want to ask you one question.”
“ Proceed, sir,” said the clerk.
“ 1 want to know," continued the customer,
if you’ve got a boot of eight size in length and
seven in width that will fit me ?” It was just a
vear ago to-day or to-morrow, I can’t remember
which, that I bought a pair of boots in this
store, and they’ve wore me first rate.”
“ l believe that we have the reputation of
keeping a good article in that line, sir," returned
the clerk. “ It you will step in this way, I think
I can suit you again.”
After trying on several pairs, with the com
bined assistance of muscular exertion and pul-
wriz.ed soap-stone, a fit was pronounced, and
after the price had been agreed upon, the cus
tomer said he would “take ’em.” As the clerk
was about to wrap them up, the prospective
owner of the boots remarked :
“I shan't be able to take ’em to-day, as I
haven’t got the money to pay lor ’em—or—well,
I've got the money, but I’ve got other expenses
to meet. I’ll call for ’em the last of next week,
or the fore part of the week after.”
“Very well, sir,” said the clerk, “we will lav
them aside for you, and await your convenience.’’
About this time other customers entered, and
the clerk was obliged to postpone further con
versation to wait on them, during which time
our lriernl amused himself by taking general
observations about the store. In a few mo
ments the clerk returued to receive final instruc
tions in regard to the boots.
“I suppose you know,” resumed he of the
boots, “that there’s goin’ to tie a camp-meeting
up to Warehouse Point next week. I’m goin’
up. Are you goin’ up?”
The clerk remarked that he might possibly.
“ It you do come up, bring up them boots; I’ll
be there.”
“ Certainly, sir, if 1 come.”
“ The New Haven Register says there’s goin’
to lie ten thousand Milleriles there, aud they’re
goin’ up some time during the week. I belong
to them, but I guess the New Haven Register lias
got a little ahead of our time. But I shall be
there, and it they go up, I shall go up with ’em.”
“ Well, then,” remarked the clerk, with the
least shadow of a smile, “ if you don’t come af
ter the boots we are to expect you’ve ‘ gone up.’ ”
“ Yes, it I go up I shan’t come alter the boots,
for I shan’t want ’em ; blit it 1 don’t go up 1
shall certainly come!”
And after bidding the clerk good-bye, if they
“shouldn’t meet again,” he look his departure,
leaving that vendor of leathern good3 to moralize
on the uncertainty of human events.
Summer In China,
A letter from Hong Kong, to tho Irish Times,
says:
Dreary and depressing in the extreme is the
early summer of Southern China. The groans
of thunder, the fierce blaz.e ot lightning, and
the monotonous splash of rain, are forever ac
companied by a harsh din of countless cicada-,
which from every twig assail the nerves with
sounds ol querulous saws and files, annihilating
all veneration for the Tclix of Anacroou aud the
live harp-strings of Eunomus. During the in
tervals of rain, clouds of hot vapor are exhaled
by the earth, from bool toe to hat lilting mildew
and blue mould establish themselves, and one
ceases to wonder that the Chinese naturalists
have enumerated 414 species of edible fungi, for
an az.otic taste permeates everything. When
the evening lamps are lighted, we perceive our
selves at the mercy of countless insect hosts.
Sometimes a llight ol ants enters at the win
dows, aud iu a moineut the eye rests everywhere
ou conglomerated black bodies, struggling to lay
aside their unwieldy wings, and become even
more revolting iu the form of wringling reptiles.
Anon, some cleopterous giant hurls himself into
your face, while half a dozen cock roaches extin
guish tlie lamps, and a spider with six-inch an
tenna: canters down your neck.
But when you retire to bed aud are ensconced
within protecting meshes, the whole earth seems
peopled while diminutive watchmen perpetually
springing their rattles, and iu dreams you per
form again and again the “iter Bruudusium,’
thoroughly appreciating old llorce’s complaints
of the “raute palustres.” The effect of this close
steaming atmosphere is to bleach the complex
ion and impart thereto a boiled appearance ;
appetite laiis aud one letects himself frequently
drawing a deep, long breath, as though the
elasticity of the air had succumbed to its weight.
Ilong Kong, as a harbor, must always be a place
of great importance; but it is no longer a colony
of merchant princes. Nevertheless, in view of
their altered prospects, men have little changed
their habits of life. The old lavishness and
open-handed hospitality still prevail. Judier
clerks still drink margaux at breakfast aud
“cocktails” at noon, and still aflect whilst at
crown and sovereign perils. But lewer car
riages aud less elegant equestrians adorn the
solitary road which, with its turning points at
every mile and its permanent ordors ot highly
nurtured vegetable gardens, has every evening
since the colony’s birth supported the whole
aristocracy ol Hong Kong.
An assassination, the most damnable in its
nature, brutal in its execution, and which eclipses
everything of the horrible that has transpired in
this State since the surrender, occurred at Jack-
son, Tennessee, a few days since. Maj. Thomas
II. Hartmus, while walking leisurely along the
street was mot by a squad of Brownlow’s mili
tia, stationed at that point, who demanded of
him, in very insulting language, his pistol. To
avoid a difficulty he gave it up. One of the rab
ble then dealt him several severe blows over the
head. At the same time shooting him through
the abdomen. Major Hartmus had no previous
words or quarrel with any ot these hyenas. He
was bom in East Tennessee, was about thirty-
three years old, aud unmarried. He served with
honor during the war ou the staff of Maj. Gen.
Bate, and we speak from personal knowledge
when we say that no more high minded, whole-
souled, genial gentleman ever responded to a
generous emotion, than Major Thomas H. Hart-
mus. Since the war lie has been engaged in
merchandising at Jackson. The particulars of
the affair which have reached us are very
meager. By Tuesday we hope to be able to lay

Two-headed Snake.—A tew days since,
Thomas Glenn discovered aud captured, near
Bethlehem, iu this county, a snake having two
heads. The snake was about ten inches in
length, and, though the heads were distinct,
there was but one vertebra aud one pelvis. There
were two eyes in each head, and each mouth had
the same appearance and size. Sometimes it
would dart out one tongue and sometimes the
other, aud at times both simultaneously. The
heads eaeli turned limn the body at the same
degree, which prevented tlie snake fioni making
much speed in crawling iu the grass, as it would
get between its heads. Hr. Glenn has tlie snake
in preservation, and some frieud of tlie college

Dear Baron Lago. .Minister of Austria to Mexico :
I am done with this world; my very last

I have ordered that my body be transported
without anv pomp or solemnity, to Vera Cruz,
and that on board the vessel that is to bring it to
Europe, no unusual ceremony take place. I
have awaited death calmly, aud I wish to be left

You will take measures, my dear Baron, so

“ Carleton ” writes to the Boston Journal:
“ Isabella II, the present Queen, is the last re
maining Bourbon sovereign m Europe. A11 the
rest have been bowled out in one way or another.
Whether Isabella is to go out at the present time
remains to be seen. This movement Baa been
planned at Beurrell by General Prim, who has
been plotting there with other refugees daring the
past year. In all other insurrections and revolu
tions there has been no thought of upsetting the
sovereign, but the ministry which had direction
of affairs for the time being. General Prim, in
his proclamation, does not aim directly at the
overthrow of Isabella, but we are informed by
the correspondent at Madrid that such is the cry
of the peasantry in the disaffected districts—a
cry never before heard in Spain.
“The Queen is now about thirty-seven years of
age, having been born on the 10th of October,
1830. She succeeded to the throne when three
years of age, on the death of her father, was pro
claimed ot age when she was thirteen, and was
married when sixteen to her cousin. She has five
children. The oldest, a daughter, Isabel, bora
1851, and consequently sixteen years of age.—
The Queen, it is said, is very desirous of making
a match for her with Prince Humbert, prospec
tive King of Italy s buL there is little probability
ot such an alliance.
“Isabella a y*ar ago had an able man at tbe
head ot her ministry, O’Donnell, who was mod
erately liberal. There was an insurrection, as
your readers will remember, which he at once
crushed. But the Queen believed that Austria
was going to win in the war then commencing
—that absolutist ideas were again to be in the
ascendant—that Italy would l>e broken up, and
Prussia humbled, and though O’Donnell had
given her such signal service'and was accepta
ble to tbe people, she dismissed him and put
Narvaez in his place. The world knows very
little of what followed. Now and then we had
accounts of the execution ot an individual, but
in trutli there was the counterpart ot what is
going on in Mexico at the present time. I met,
not long since, a gentleman who was in Spain
at the time. He said that for several mornings
in succession he heard reports of musketry, and
at length took occasion to ask what it meant.—
“O, it is only the soldiers slwoting the fellows
wlio were in the insurrection,’ was the reply,
given with as much coolness as it it was the
[Hitting out of the way ot a score or two of dogs.
Hundreds wore shot—condemned after a mock
ery of military trial—the priest brought in—
confession g’Ven—the sacrament administered—
the marching out to the square—a volley of
musketry, and so, morning after morning, dis
patching e. halt dozen at a time, before breakfast.
“ The people of Spain are not ready for a
thorough revolution. The masses have not felt
the despotic power of the Queen directly ; that
lias lallen rather upon prominent individuals.—
Some of the nobles have been shot, though there
are enough left. Tlie entire population ot the
kingdom is about sixteen millions, but of these
there are eighty-two Dukes, seven, hundred and
tiventy-two Marquises, five hundred aud fifty-
eight Counts, seventy-four Yiscounts, and sixty-
seven Barons. There a*e about a half million
persons belonging to the- nobility, all of whom
are too proud to work. Some ot them are very
rich, but more quite, poor, and not ashamed to
beg ot foreigners.
“ By the census of 1857 there were three mil
lion eight hundred thousaud able-bodied men in
the kingdom—125,000 of them priests, 241,000
lielongiug to the army, 478,000 of the nobility,
who had 20G;000 body servants to wait upou
them.
“ It required 28,000 men to collect the revenue,
and there were some 00,000 students, lawyers
and other professional men, making a total of
1,200,000 able-bodied men living apart from all
manufacturing or agricultural, labors. Yet, not
withstanding this multitude of drones, the coun
try has been rapidly advancing in wealth, as
might be shown from the statistics of the last
budget.”
Shoddy on SUIti.
The New York correspondent of tdie Cincin
nati Commercial gives some amusing gossip.—
He says:
THE HERALDRY OFFICE.
You would hardly suppose any would be
found foolish, and vain enough-to patronize such
a transparent sham as the Heraldry Office ; but
they da very largely, aud its proprietors have
made a comfortable fortune in the past fifteen
or twenty - years. That the concern does so
much business; proves bow fallacious all out-
boosted Republicanism is ; that many of us who
talk on public occasions of “our glorious Demo
cracy,” have an inextinguishable, secret fond
ness for rank and all tbe gewgaws of a royal
court.
MODE OF OBTAINING ANCESTORS.
One of the first things Mr., or rather Mrs.
Cheapside—for women, far more than men,
hanker alter pseudo aristocracy—does after ob
taining a fortune and a brown stone-front in the
Avenue, is to visit the Heraldry office to learn
who she is. Lucifer himself could not tell even
if he would; but the ingenious charlatans in
Broadway can. They receive her very gravely
and obsequiously enquire her own and her hus
band’s name and. that of her nearest relatives ;
look through several large and antique vol umes;
talk a deal of learned, and to her incomprehen
sible, lingo, concerning quarterings, shields,, es
cutcheons, gules, fields of azure, lions and uni
corns rampant, eouchant and salient. They then
say: “ Ah, yes, madame, I have it now. Your
family are of Norman blood; runs back to the
tenth century. Jean Chevreaux, knighted by
one of the-Carlovingian Kings, was the lounder
of the family. The name, running' through
English sources, became corrupted into Cheap-
side. I can see, madame, in your face and air,
and movement, something of the sang azar,
which it is impossible to mistake. Long practice
has enabled me to detect a person of gentle
blood the moment my eyes fall upon him or her.
I can detect the genuine trom the spurious at
once. Here is your court of arms—a bear with,
a battle axe, with the motto Dieu et moi-meme,.
borne by your gallant ancestors at Cressy and
Augincourt on their victorious banners. Call
next week, and I will hand you your genealogical
tree, and show you your ancestry through eight
generations. It will involve much labor; but it
is a pleasure to discover the really noble families
in this country.”
MRS. CHEAPSIDE AS LADY CHEVREUX.
Mrs. Cheapside, as Lady Chevreux (she pro
nounces it Sheevrocks,) as she considers herself,
departs in the most joyous state of mind, and is
only too happy to hand into the office when she
next calls two hundred dollars, the price of her
purchased gentility.
The rate for a coat of arms and a lineage
ranges from $50 to $250 or $300, tbe figures be
ing regulated by wiiat the Heraldry people sup
pose the conceited simpletons will pay. The
office understands how to deal with its custom
ers. When they seem to have a moderate de
gree of common sense, it treats them with a lit
tie more delicacy than it did Mrs. Cheapside, who
was recognized the moment site entered as a
full-blown Shoddyite.
Mrs. Cheapside can be seen any afternoon,
when she is in town, in the Park with the coat
ot arms on the panels of her carriage. Her
tawdry house in the avenue is blazoned with the
Chevreux escutcheon. Her furniture has it.
Her pillow-cases have it. Her handkerchiefs
have it. Her coachman wears it on his hat
band. Her stupid and vulgar children have it
wrought on their holiday attire.
All this; and yet Mrs. Cheapside’s husband
was a patent medicine peddler ten years ago, and
she herself is the daughter of a toll-gate keeper
at a country cross-roads in Connecticut. Helm

Habeas Corpus.
Tlie Charleston Mercury notices as follows the
revival in Memphis of this ancient legal right of
tlie citizen, and claims it to be one of the effects
of tbe President’s recent amnesty proclamationi:
“ In Memphis, some weeks since, a Mr.l Milli-
ken, of LaGrange, was arrested by General Neil
for assaulting ex-Union soldiers and violating
his parole. He was taken to Louisville, and
ar.erwanis sent back to be tried by General Neil.
A few da>? asro application was made to Judge
Trig", ofthe'Cniied Slates C'-nrt, for a writ of
ha\as corpus hi the commandant at LaGrange
for the body of the pri-'OLcr. Under the Presi
dent’s proclamation of the supremacy of the

at once placed in the hands of the Deputy Mar
shal for execution.”
Hon. A. H. Stephen*.
From theGreenesboro* (Ga.) correspondence of
the Augusta Chronicle A Sentinel we make the
following extrac*, it being a refutation of some
statements made not long since, in regard to
sentiments said to have been uttered by Mr.
Stephens by a correspondent of the Louisville
Courier > over the signature ot "X'ahob," which
has drawn trom the press of the country gener
ally, many and varied comments:
“A late letter of the correspondent of the Louis-
ville Courier, under the signature of ‘Nabob,’
with regard to Air. Stephens, is being freely can
vassed and condemned by bis friends in no mea
sured terms. ‘Nabob’ assumes that ‘Libra’s’ let
ter to the New York Timeg were not only a cor
rect representation of Mr. Stephens’ views as
therein presented, but intimates that it was writ
ten with bis knowledge and consent. _ A number
of gentlemen who were present at Liberty Hall
during ‘'Libra’s” visit, concur in the statement
that his letter was a compilation trom memory,
comprising conversations of two weeks,at various
times, in which many took part, aud that the
impression conveyed by Libra’s letter is far dif
ferent from that, produced by the conversations
ihetnselves. I have the highest authority for
saying that, as reported by Libra, they are dis
jointed, disconnected, and in no case represent
ing Mr. Stephens’ views fairly, aud that they of
ten represent the opinions ot others who took
part in tbe desultory conversations at Liberty
Hall; and that so far from beiDg cognizant ot
the purpose of the author to sketch them for
publication, Mr. Stephens was utterly ignorant ot
the existence of Libra’s letter until it appeared
as a reprint in tlie columns of the Chronicle &
Senlinel. A single instance has been particu
larly noted for its unfairness. Libra relates a
part of a conversation in relation to Air. Davis,
and his narrative leaves the impression that the
Southern people distrusted Air. Davis, and Na
bob assumes that Libra’s version is an author
ized attack upon him. The truth is, that con
versation related to Mr. Jefferson Davis’ politi
cal record before the war. Mr. Stephens being
appealed to, affirmed that Air. Davis was always
known as a Democrat of the Calhoun school,
but never made a speech nor gave any evidence
of being a secessionist up to tbe time he united
in tbe well-known dispatch of the Congressional
delegation to the people of Mississippi; and
that, so far as his knowledge extended, lie did
not believe Air. Davis ever favored the ultra views
of the Yancey school.”
