Our Paris and Continental Correspondence.
Paris, December 18, mk
Dipl PILGRIMAGE TO ROME.
The Fresse speaks ns follows, relative to the
journey of the Empress t.o Rome. This is now
the universal topic of conversation'ln the salons
: . of Paris :
The pilgrimage projected by Her Majesty .to
• he tomb of the Apostles, tbolirst idea of which
was suggested by the illness, some months
. ' back, of the
•..SSuvr-tB iXtWsoin "file ErnViress, it is raid,
will spend thf-days of the Christinas festival ai
Rome. At that period, it is well known, the
Pope, according to tradition, receives all Hie
good wishi 5 !? for the coming year, and sends his
apostolic,, benediction lo ail Catholic sover
i eigns. Her Majesty may, in this way, receive
~ the Pontifical blessing at Rome itself. The
pf 4 Empress-will probably be again in Paris for the
i ■ customary receptions of the New Year.
.The Independence lSc ft/c announces that Her
, Majesty is to tie accompanied to Rome by the
£•, , Prince Imperial.
ANOTHER EMPRESS AND THE POPE.
It is, of course, geuerally believed that the
t Empress proceeds to Rome lor a political pur
pose, and there can be no doubt that there will
be an interview between Her Majesty and
J Pins fX.
THE OPENING OF TTIE ITALIAN CHAMBERS.
King Victor Emmanuel lias opened the legis
lative session at Florence. Mo says that tlie
country is henceforth free from foreign do
minion, and it is with profound joy that lie an
nounces the fact to twenty-five millions of Ital
ians. He hopes that nati jn continues to trust,
in him and to believe that tlio great object of
Ills life is to assure the happiness ofhis people.
Victor Emmanuel will respect the Convention
of the lillh ol September the more so rs France
has been most faithful to its obligations. The
power of the Pope will be sacred for the Kim'
of Italy.
The King goes on to say:
“Attached to the religion of our fathers,
which is also that of the great majority of the
people of Italy, 1, render homage at the same
time to tlie principle of liberty with which our
institutions are provided, and which, applied
broadly and with sincerity, will remove the
causes ot the long standing differences be
tween the church and the State.
Italy must now turn her efforts towards the
increase of prosperity; however, not forgetting
to keep the army in a good condition.
THE LAST FRENCHMAN.
We hear from a correspondent in Florence
that there are no longer any armed foreigners
iu the Holy City. Every thing was most quiet,
and several correspondents who had been sent
to Rome by some of the first papers of Paris,
in the hope that there would be much to write
about, find themselves much disappointed, and
will probably return to Paris no richer than
they went. There is no talk of taking Rome
for the capital. At Turin alone there seems to
he a desire to do anything to deprive the Flor
entines of their privilege. The complaint of
the Turinese is that the papacy has constantly
called foreigners to Rome; however, this griev
ance no longer exists. It is very evident the
Italians in general have no desire to see the
Pope leave Italy.
They have, even with a few exceptions, a
strong desire to retain him ; and the Romans
say if he wore to leave they would lose one ot
their greatest attractions. Such is the present
situation. It must, however, not he concluded
from it that nothing more remains to be done,
and that Pius and Victor are going to kiss right
awag, as you say, and make friends. If Italian
passions are appeased lor the moment, those of
the clergy do not seem so. The Mazzinians are
silent, but they s' ill exist. The best tiling one
can do in France is to leave the Italian alone
and allow them to settle their own business.
Had we done so iu Mexico, we should have
been but the better off.
TUG PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE.
We have just received the text of the United
Slates President’s Message. The passage rela
tive to France, lias, as yet, not been commented
on by the papers in Paris.
A letter just received from a friend in Rome,
tells me that the Pope will proceed to Civita
Vecclii soon, and that lie will make a short stay
only and return to the Holy City, which he has
now made up his mind not to abandon.
THE PRINCE OF WALES IN PAKIS.
The heir of the English throne, being here
incognito, did not proceed to Compeigne, as was
asserted by many of the Paris papers. His
Royal Highness preferred enjoying the plea
sures of privacy. His day in Paris may be said
to have been well spent. For the morning he
to see the new photo-sculpture establish
ment on the Boulevard des Capucines, where,
we hear, he sat for his bust. After dining at a
restaurant, he went with his frieuds to the thea
tre ot the Palais Royal and had a good laugh at
the screaming extravaganza of “La Vie Pa
risienne," which is having such a rim at this
popular theatre. Hyasinthe with his long nose
and Brasseur with his comical voice set the
house iu a roar. The French papers assert that
the Prince of Wales will shortly return to
Paris accompanied by tlie Princess of Wales,
and that they will here meet the newly married
couple, the Czarowitch and the Princess Dng
raar. They will all be guests of the Emperor
and the Empress at the Tuilleries.
PARIS FASHIONS.

male bipeds who respect themselves and the
mandates of the Jockey Club, are to appear

Jri-tUcckln Constitutionalist
a Spanish cape and the old military cloak.—
This contemplated revival ol an exploded fash
ion reminds one of the anecdotes Arnault tells
so well of the French Ambassador's audience
with his Majesty, the mighty Emperor, Charles
V. ilis Excellency once presented to the mas
ter of all Europe and aIT America, looked about
for a seat, but as France was in disgrace at the
moment, every unoccupied chair had been ab
stracted. The Ambassador wore a splendid
cloak of velvet and satin, embroidered and
gemmed, and altogether a gorpeous affair. On
perceiving the premeditated impertinence, he
quietly unfastened the cloak, rolled it up, and
sat down upon it.
The audience terminated, he bowed to the
Emperor and walked off, leaving his cloak on
the floor. The ushers of the black and white
rods rushed after him with his late garment.
“No,” replied the Frencji seigneur, “ the Am
bassadors of the King, my master, have not the
habit of carrying away the seats they have made
use of.”
[From the Chicago Tribune.
Sayings of Great Men,
No points of history are more impressive
limn the mots , or striking expressions, which
have dropped from the mouths of great men
on memorial occasions. These, being brief
and so pungent as to stick like burrs iu the
memory, one might suppose to have been ac
curately caught and reported by history. Yet
not one in a hundred of these famous sayings
was probably ever uttered by the meu with
whose-names they are labelled.
So long as the Star Spangled Banner contin
ues to wave, and heroism to be admired,
Americans will continue to believe that Gen.
Taylor, at the crisis of Buena Vista, called out,
“A little more grape. Captain B"agg!” And
equally impossible will it he to make them dis
believe that General Jackson fought at New
Orleans behind breastworks of cotton. Yet
Captain Bragg asserts that the “little more
grape ” is a poetic fiction ; and “ Old Hick
ory "'always denied the cotton bale story,
which certainly rather detracts from than adds
to his glory. The only foundation for it was
the fact that a few bales of cotton goods were
thrown into the breastworks, forming but
an insignificant part of the material.
Again, how often do our political orators
round a period with the famous cry of the Brit
ish at the same battle of New Orleans, viz:
“Beauty and booty,” though it has been de
clared by every surviving British officer of that
battle to be u fiction. Perhaps no hero of an
cient or modern times,has been credited with
30 many grand and even sublime utterances
which he never uttered as Lord Nelson. In
Southey’s admirable life of the hero, it is rela
ted when going ginto the battle of the
Nile, Captain Berry, Nelson’s second in com
mand, was told the plan and its probable re
sults, and exclaimed with transport, “If we
succeed, what will the world say?” “There is
no if in the case,” replied Nelson ; that we
shall succeed is certain. Who may live to tell
the story is a very different question.” Mr.
Massey quotes the story in his history of the
reign of George fV., and adds r “We are as
sured, on the authority of Captain Berry him
self, that no such scene took place.” Agaiu,
who, has not admired the simple majesty
of the sentiment expressed in the or
der of Nelson at Tratalgar. which
has been so.often the battle-cry of Britannia’s
sons on laqd and sea : “ England expects every
man to do his ilqt.y!” Yet the real order was,
,“ Nelson expects every mail to do his duty,”
for which the former was ingeniously substi
tuted by the officer whose business it, was to
telegraph the order to the fleet, simply because
he could find no flag to telegraph the word
Nelson. Once more—whose soul has not been
thrilled by the subriiae sentiment of the reply
with Which the shine hero Is safd to have
silenced the affectionate importunes of his
officers when they entreated hi in to conceal the
stars on his breast, at Trafalgar: “In liquor 1
gained them, and in honor 1 will die with
them !” History has recptdbd few nobler senti
ments than which Tacitus could not have putA
liner into the mouth of Agrieola. But its merit
W purely imaginative. The junta as Wff
'Arnold gathered them from St. Thomas Hardy,
that Nelson wore oh she day ot the battle the
same coat Which he had from for weeks^hav
ing Hie Order of flfc Bath embroidered upon
it; and, when his friends expressed some fears
regarding the danger, Nelson that he
was nwaro ot the danger, hut that it fvns “ too
late theh to shiltsi coal,”
“ Up guards, and at ’em t” men will always .
believe to have trtjen (lie exclamation of
■ •h#’ 'h>vf, v ; Mi Sih.a,-. c‘wrlTostnrv
of Waterloo'!n spite of the Duke’s protest, that
he uttoyed no such nonsense; and just as im
plicitly will they belive the tallying statement
that the Imperial Guard uttered the bravado,
“ La garde mnirl et no sc rendu pus /” which is
purely a myth, although inscribed, too, on the
monument at Nantes.. The last, bombastic'
phrase was a pure invention of a French jour
nalist two days after the battle. What was
really said Victor Hugo makes kuowu iu Les
Miserables. A less memorable French mot is
the cry of Philip, when, flying from the battle
of Croeey, he arrived before the gates of the
Castle of Braye, and exclaimed : “ Ouvrez oun
ces, e'esi la fortune dr la France /” (Open, open,
to the fortunes of France.) Turning to Frois
sart, the original author of the anecdote, we
find—what? instead of the line sentiment last
quoted, by which the King embodies in him
self the stricken .fortunes of his country—.only
the tame exclamation,' “ Ouvrez, ouvrez e'esi
Vint or/unfit / Hoi de hi France." (Open, open ;
’tis the, unfortunate- King of France.) Will
any one, who knows the intensity of a French
man’s love, for “effects,” be surprised to
learn that Chateaubriand, having misrclated this
story in his History of France, refused, on be
ing informed oi his error, to correct it ? Or is
it strange that, with the same noble scorn for
strict accuracy and exclusive regard for artistic
effect, Voltaire, on being asked where lie found
a certain startling fact, replied, “Itis a frolic
b( my imagination !” For three centuries his
torians have delighted to repeat the heroic sen
timent expressed by Francis I, while writing to
his mother from the battlefield of Pavia : “ All
is lost but honor.” But how runs the real let
ter which the King wrote on the occasion, and
which has been preserved ? Instead of the
pithy, epigrammatic communication, as terse
as a telegram, which Francis is said to have dis
patched from the liatlle field, and which so elec
trifies the reader as the grand outburst of a
spirit in sudden adversity, it turns out that a
French monarch wrote in prison, by permission,
a long letter, in which, after describing the bat
tle, he says prosaically : “ With regard to the
remaining details of my misfortune, honor and
life, which is safe, are all that are left to me,”
&c. Hardly less diluted iu the original is
the sententious dispatch Henry IV. is said to
have written to one of his nobles after the bat
tle of Arques: “ Hang thyself, brave Crilliou ;
we have fought, and thou wort not there !”
When we have learned, too, that “ Hang thy
self!” was a baekneyed.exprcssion of Henry’s,
repeated on the most trivial occasions, the mot
sinks into the veriest common place.
What is more hackneyed than the saying at
tributed to Demosthenes that “ action, action,
action !” that is gesticulation, is the one thing
most needful to an orator ? The word which
be used, which is translated “action,” is kine
sis, the true signification of which is agitation,
motion, anything of a stirring character. Not
action but motion, which, like murder, will
out, if deeply felt, was that Demosthenes held
to be so vitally essential—agreeing herein with
the well known maxim of Horace, that “ if yoir
wish me to webp you must first weep yourself.”
Again, how ’often lias Cicero been euoted as
having said, “ l would rather err with Plato
than hold 'the truth with these philosophers.”
1 he real sentiment ol Cicero, “ Errare niehcr
eule malo cum Plalone, * * * quant cum
istic vere sentire" —which lias been so often ap
plauded by some, and by others denounced as
an instance ot excessive and almost idolatrous
reverence for a giaut intellect—occurs in the
“ Tuscul.m Questions and it is only by the
grossest perversion of the language that it can
be construed into such on expression of a hu
miliating general submission to the authority
ot Plato as it is supposed to contain. The im
mediate point under discussion, as Professor
Marsh has shown, was the question of the im
mortality ot the soul, which was maintained by
Plato but denied by the Epicureans; and it is
solely with reference to the conclusion of Pla
to on this one point, not to the weight of his
authority that Cicero prefers to share with him
the beuefieient possible error of eternal life,
rather than with his opponents the tearful and
pernicious truth, if it were a truth of final an
nihilation.
To Keep Hens from Setting.—One farmer
says, have a small lath coop with the bottom ot
the same ; set it upon a block about two feet,
from the ground. Whenever a .hen wants to
set at an unseasonable period, put her in that
coop; tlie wind drawing up between the slats
makes it too uncomfortable for the fowl to sit
down long, and will soon get out ol the incli
nation. Another says tie a bright • rag on her
tail. When a heir' nestles herself into her seat,
she always takes a very composed look at sur
roundings, and as she catches' a glimpse of the
fiery object behind her, it is very amusing to
see how quickly she will start and run from her
nest.

Marsden’g Yamily Medicines
Have become a household word in almost every family
from the extreme North to the tropics. It has surprised
many why they have proved so successful. The reason i,s
that they are not cure-alls for every disease known to suf
fering humanity, but specific remedies for the various
complaints which they are recommended for. These pre
parations are compounded with great care from the active
principle of drugs long and favorably known for their
remedial effects in the diseases which experience lias
proved to be benefitted by their use. Being prepared in
large quantities, under my immediate supervision, guar
antees to the patient a uniformity in strength and a cer
tainty in effect—an advantage which the skillfurpharma
ceatist can readily appreciate.
Pectoral Balm
Has proved so successful in alleviating and curing Coughs,
Colds, Influenza, Asthma, Croup, Consumption, and all
Bronchial Diseases, that it is now adopted by mauy of our
most eminent physicians as the" most valuable expecto
rant known.
Calisaya Tonic
In all cases of Debility, Loss of Appetite and Dyspepsia,
will be louud invaluable, giving touo and strength to the
system. As an Alterative it has proved very efficacious,
removing Blotches, Eruptions, Scrofula, and all impuri
ties of the blood.
Carminative Syrup
Is now reoognized by all who have tried it, as the most
reliable preparation that can be used in cases of Diarrhoea,
Dysentery, Flux or Cholera. The past season has added
additional testimony to ts already established reputa
tion—it never having failed to relieve and cure all the
above diseases.
Sanative Pills
Have become so well known to all sufferers from Consti- |
pat ion, Billious Disorders, Nervous or Sick Headache,
Gout, Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, &<_•., that comment on
their virtues would seem superfluous.

Whereas, the said Bank lias resolved to appropriate all
the estate and effects of the same for the benefit of its
creditors, and to close its business and surrender its
charter ed rights and franchises, in conformity to the pro
visions of an Act of the General Assembly of the State,

Habitual Constipation.
How to Effect a Certain and Permanent Cure.
Some occupations of life predispose to Costiveness, es
pecially those which allow but little exercise. Persons
who contract this unfortunate habit of body, under such
circumstances, might possibly hi relieved by changing
their sedentary employments for others of a more active
kind: but this is by no means certain Habitual consti
pation is a very obstinate disorder. All the ordinary so
called remedies invariably aggravate it. Nothing can be
more injurious than the continued use of strong ape
rients. They at first irritate, and finally almost paralyze
the bowels—rendering them so torpid that enormous doses
of cathartic medicines have no effect upon them. A mild
aperient combined with a gentle stimulant, is the true
remedy; aud a combination in the happiest proportion,
of these ingredients, is found in HOSTETTER’S STO
MACH BITTERS. This famous Stomachic invigorates
the whole intestinal canal, while quietly removing from
its convolutions all impediments to a free passage through
them. No mere purgative has this double operation. No
ordinary stimulant effects the desired object. Cases of
Constipation abandoned as hopeless by distinguished
medical men have been cured in a few weeks by the Bit
ters. To those who have tried all the medicines of the
dispensary in vain, we say try this irresistible stimulant
and aperient. There is no sufficient reason why constipa
tion should bo the consequence of sedentary habits.
HOSTETTER’S BITTERS, by supplying the vigor w’hich
would otherwise be derived from exercise, will in all cases
enable the system to perform its excretory functions regu
larly and healthfully.

THE AMERICAN JEWELERS’ ASSOCIA
TION calls your attention to the fact of its being the
largest and most popular Jewelry Association in the
United States. The business is and always has been
conducted in tlie most condid and honorable manner.
Our rapidly increasing trade is a sure guarantee of the
appreciation of our patrons for this method of obtain
ing rich, elegant, and costly toods. The sudden stag
nation of trade in Europe, owing to the late German
War and recent disastrous financial crisis in England,
has caused the failure of a large number of Jewelry
Houses in London and Paris, obliging them to soil
their goods at a great sacrifice, in some instances less
than one-third the cost of manufacturing. VVe nave
lately purchased very largely of these Bankrupt
Goods, at such extremely low prices, that we ean
qfford to send away Finer Goods, and give better
chances to draw the most valuable prizes than un\
other establishment doing a similar business. OUR
AIM IS TO PLEASE, anti we respectfully solicit
your patronage, as we are confident of giving the ut
most satisfaction. During the past year we have for
warded a number of the most valuable prizes to all
parts ot the country. Those who patronize us will re
ceive the full value of their money, ns no article on
our list is worth less than One Dollar, ictait, and there
are no blanks. Parties dealing with us- may depend
on having prompt returns, and the article drawn will
be immediately sent to any address by return mail or
express.
The following parties have recently drawn valuable
prizes from the American Jewelers’ Association, and

THE COMPOSITION OF TniS GU \NO IS
IDENTICAL WITH PERUVIAN. IT DIF
FERS ONLY IN THE PROPORTIONS
OF TnE SAME ELEMENTS.
WHILE IT CONTAINS LESS AMMONIA,
it has nearly twice the quantity of Phosphate oi
Lime, 15 per cent, of which is immediately soluble.
Its effects on Cotton the past season have, in many
instances, excelled Peruvian Guano. It has in no
case proved less active in the early growth of the
crop. When drought intervenes the crop does not
puffer from its uee as is the case with Peruvian
Guano. By reason of the presence in it of so large a
per cent, of Phosphate of Lime its use improves the
soil to an extent that cannot he realized from Peruvian
Guano.
Every cargo of this Guano is subjected to rigid in
spection analysis, and is sold on a basis of actual
value.
The undersigned, Agents,arc prepared to furnish the
testimony of well known South Carolina planters in
evidence of the superior excellence of this Guano.
