Tuevecxß widow.
She 1e modest, she is bashful,
Free and easy, but not bold—
Like an apple, ripe and mellow.
Not too young, and not too old ;
Half inviting, half repulsive,
Now advancing, and now ehy ; *
Thero is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature,
She is schooled in all her arts, ,
She has taken her diploma
As the mistress of all hearts ;
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile,
Oh ! a maid is sometimes charming,
0 lint a widow all the while !
You are sad ? How very serious
Will her handsome face become ;
Are you angry ? She is wretched.
Lonely, friendless, tearful, dumb.
Are yon mirthful ? How her laughter,
Silver sounding will ring out,
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
Ah the angler does the trout.
All old bachelors of forty,
Who have grown so bold and wise,
Ye Adonises of twenty,
With you love looks in your eyes,
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But I know a little widow
Who could win and fool you all !
WHERE THERE’S A WILL THERE’S A
WA.Y.
It was a noble Roman
In Rome's Imperial day,
Who neaid a coward
Before the battle say
“•They’re safe inßUcb a fortress ;
There is no way to shake it—”
“On ! on !” exclaimed the hero,
“I’ll find a way or make it ?”

Is Fame your aspiration ?
Her path is steep and high ;
In vain he seeks the temple,
Content to gaze and sigh !
The shining throne is waiting,
But he alone can take it,
Who says with Roman firmness—.
“I’ll find a way or make it!’’ '
Is learning your ambition
There is no royal road ;
Alike the peer and peasant
Must climb to her abode,
WhS feel the thirst, for knowledge
In Helicon may slake it,
If he ban the Roman will
To “find a way or make it I’’
Are riches worth the getting ?' A t .
They must lie bravely sought ; -
With wishing and with fretting
The boon cannot be sought ?
To all the prize in onen,
But only ho can take it,

“l’ll hud a way or make it !’’ O X;..
In Love’s impassioned warfare, v ‘
The tale has ever been
That victory crowns the valiant, ~ *
The brave are they who win ;
Though strong is beauty’s castle,
A lover still may take it,

Tub French Emubkor on Mbxicml Affairs
—The following extract in regard is
from the limperor’s speech at the opening of
the French Legislature :
In Mexico the government founded upon
the will of the people iB being "consolidated.
The opposition, conquored and dispersed, have
no longer a chief. The national troops have
displayed valor, and the country has found
guarantees of order and security which have
developed its resources and raised its com
merce with Franco alone from twenty-ono to
seventy-seven millions. As I expressed the
hope last year that our expedition was ap
proaching its termination. I atn ooming to
an understanding with the Emperor Maximil
ian to fix the epoch for tho recall of our troops
before their return is effectuated, without com
premising the French interests which we have
been defending in that remote country.
North America, issuing victoriously from a
formidable struggle, has re-established tho
Union and solemnly proclaimed the abolition
of slavery. France, which forgets no noble
page oi her history, offers up sincere wishes
/or tlie prosperity of the great American re
public, and for tho maintenance of the amica
ble relations which soon will have had a ten
tury’s duration. Tire emotion produced in
the United .States by the presence of our troops
on the Mexican soil will be pacified by tiro
frankness of our declarations. The American
people will comprehend that our expedition,
to which we invited them, was not opposed
to their interests. Two nations equally jealous
of their independence ought to avoid every
step which might affect their dignity and
their honor.
Tub I’snjiDßxr's Speech to tub Virginia
Delegation.—The President was waited upon
by a delegation from Virginia a few days
since. Annexed is his speech to them :
Gentlemen : To the resolutions you have
just presented to me, and the clear and forci
ble and concise remarks which you have made
in explanation oi the position of Virginia, I
shall not attempt to make a formal speech,
but simply enter into a plain conversation in
regard to tho condition of things in which wo
stand as a premise to what I may say.
Permit me first to tender you my thanks for
this visit and next to express the gratification
I feel on meeting so many entelligent, respon
sible and respectable gentleman of Virginia,
bearing to me the sentiments which have been
expressed in the resolutions of your Legisla
ture, and in the remarks which accompany
them. They are, so far as they refer to the
Constitution, the country, tho sentiments and
principles embraced in that charter of the
Government. The preservation of the Union
has been, from my entrance into public life,
one of my cardinal tenets. At the very incipi
ency of the rebellion 1 sot my face against the
asseveration of the Union of the States.
I do not make this allusion for tho purpose
of bringing up anything which has transpired,
which may be regarded as of an unkind or un
pleasant character, but I believed then as I
believe now, and as you have most nnmistaka
bly. Indicated that security and protection of
the rights of all people were to be found in
the Union. Upon this conviction I based my
opposition to the efforts which were made to
destroy the Union.
Tub Fashions.—Knowing that our lady read
ers are deeply interested in the fashions, and
anxious at all times to please them, we give
below a condensed description of tho latest a
ia Paris:
Since short skirts are coming into vogue in
Paris, it is curious to observe what coquettish
boots and shoes are making their appearance.
For dancing, the Louis XV’. boots, made of
poult de sole to match the dress in color, or a
shoe with a sham silk stocking attached, and
elastic sides, aro fashionable. Bows made of
either guipure or blonde are added.
For home wear, the ladies patronize the mule
slipper, made of gros <?. 'loros. enAroidered
by hand in silk, and lined wi’h satin to match
the embroidery. Ihe design for this embroid
ery is sometimes a boquet, sometimes a butter
fly, and occasionally a simulated buckle. A
oord of the same color, finished off with tassels
terminates the decorations of the mule slipper.
Others more costly are made of white vel
vet. bound with cerise satin, cords of the same,
and tasseis in front. Gold is lavished iu pro
fusion over the ladies' slippers.
The.e aro boots to match dresses trimmed
with gold. Patent or fancy velvet is used, for
the purpose ; because it is better and stronger
than silk velvet. To the top is added a nar
row fur bracelet.
For out door wear the unglaztMl black kid
boots, with as little ornament as possible, are
considered the most lady like, as well as the
most uselul—especially for those who take
much walking exercise.
One hundred and eighty thousand bales cf
cotton, weighing over four millions of pounds
were shipped Ironi Memphis last year.
[From the Richmond Examiner.]
THK WTIUYVL IXPBKSB COMPANY.
Some remar .8 made in this piper in refer
ence to the National e-xpress Company' seem
to be misapprehended in some very respectable
quarters. We pursue no party’er thing from
unworthy motives. We have a high regard
lor the distingu Bhed gentleman who fills the
Presidency o the company ; his abilities and
services demand a profound respect. Among
t <• subordinate officers of the company are
i* ;ed many men of private worth and pub-
Ip, distinction. But we are not urged by pri
vate causes, neither can wo be restrained by
them. The public good is the end in vie" 1- ,
and it will be prosecuted by us at all hazards,
without fear, favor, oraiiection. Our private
interests are far' removed from any of these
concerns: We have not one dollar invested
in any ‘'Express’’ what-oever. It is solely the
public welfare that in.-pires our action.
Let us examine into same of the pretensions
of this “National Express Company.” The
first inducement held out was that very little
ready money would be required from its stock
holders. Subscriptions to tbo stock were
sought and granted npon the express stipula
tion that five per centum,gand no more, would
be exacted. Deceived by these representa
tions, many a poor Confederate sold hia pro
perty and collected what little means he could
and subscribed lor a large number of shares.
There is a call now, in spite of all promises,
for au additional five per centum. What are
the innocent subscribers to do ? Why, just
as one oPthem has already done. A victim of
Os this company some days ago, who had
bought several dollars of stock, but had not
the money to pay the five per centum, was
forced to sell his stock, and so, by this com
pelled sale, he sacrificed upon the amount of
money actually invested. This party had
bought the stock upon the distinct promise
and assurance that only five per centum would
be demanded upon the amount of purchase,
but si.ou came another cull for which he was
wholly unprepared, and even il he could have
met this, v/bere Is the assurance that there
would not be another demand ? Indeed, these
demands are inevitable, if the existence of the
company is to be maintained. It is an Oliver
/Twist that will not cease its cry for morei
How preposterous the idea that the “Nat on
al Express” can establish and sustain itself,
on the grand scale that it contemplates, by
small assessments on the capital stock. If it
had no rivals in the field, it would still be im
possible for it to establish itself as a carrier
throughout this vast country without immense
pteliminary outlays. Consider the extent, the
complications and tho various parts of this
huge machinery, and then reflect that money
is its only efficient motor. What hope of sue
ccss can there be for tho ‘ National’’ where it
has to come in direct competition with ’several
well known and well founded corporations
whose capitals are counted by millions, and,
whose established reputations extend to the
most distant parts of the country. Consignors,
too, are not tco ready to entrust valuable
property in the bands of irresponsible parties.
Can the “National” pay damages for any con
siderable amount on demand. What if it had
met, as vas recently the case of two Express
companies ia the North, with a loss of over half
a million of dollars. Could they have paid it?
What need to put the question, when wo see
it staggering even beneath the burden of daily
expenditures? Five per centum, indeed! It,
wiil swallow every cent that is subscribed, if it
can reach it, and then die of utter inanition,
Wo cannot be silent when we see our people,
already bankrupt, inveigled into reckless
schemes that must in the end pauperize them.
We cannot stand this mad squandering of the
little that is left us.
If the poor Confederate soldier had found an
asylum, as promised, in this “ Express,” wo
•then might exhibit more foibearance than we
are disposed to, aB things exist. So far from
being thu friend of those men whom the war
has ruined, it patronizes the suave non-com
batant or the Yankee. The soldier who bore
the brunt of the war, from the fiist to the last,
solicits employment in vain; he dances attend
ance till soul and body are sick with hopo de
ferred ; his scanty funds aro exhausted by ex
penses hero, and to avoid starvation he returns
in despair to his desolate home. He came be
cause he had heard the generous promises of
tho “National” to provide for the poor soldier.
There aro biina Southern officers provided for
on a magnificent 3cale by this company. How
dare it give its President ten thousand dollars
per annum t Can it afford that salary while it
is struggling with a small capital through un
told difficulties to a position? lhis lavish
compensation at the top is provided for by' a
niggardly economy in tho pay of tho inferior
employees, if it pays them at all’ President
Johnston, perhaps, has no difficulty in drawing
his princely income, but the obscure clerk, or
.messenger, or what not, is higgled with, is
postponed from clay to day, until he has quit?
doubly earned the pittance that at last is re
luctantly yielded to him.
We find also associated in this company
General Wilson, United States Array, “who
captured Jefferson Davis,” nndGent?i<T Fessen
den, United States Army, a Yankee ot the
deepest dye, and related to the late Senator
Fessenden, of Maine—to which last some negro
gave the popular toast in manner and form
following: “Here’s health to our friend Mis
“ ter Fessenden; he had a white skin, but he
“ hab a very black heart 1”
To enp the climax ol its enormities, this
company is seeking in every way that promises
success to induce the Legislature to nullify
contracts, consummated in good faith, and
that have been and will boos great advantage
to Virginia and some ofherchiei public works.
Large amounts, at mere legal rates of interest,
have been generously advanced by some oi the
Express companies iu the North, and the bar
gains are nB binding as law and honour can
make them. We hope tho day will never
come when tho Legislature will so disgrace the
honour and credit of the State.
Southern Manufactures. —The Secretary of
the Treasury has issued The following circu
lar : _
Treasury Department, 1
February 2, 18®5. J"
On September 14, 1865, ap order was issued
by this Department, under the power conferred
by section forty six ot Internal Revenue Act
of June 30, 1864, directing that articles manu
factured in the States lately in insurrection,
prior to the establishment of collection districts
therein, but retained in possession of the
manufacturer until after such establishment,
and thus made liable to the current rates of
taxation, should be held free from present
assessment until transported beyond the limits
of the above mentioned States, and should then
be subjected only to the tax due at the time of
their manufacture.
The reasons for this exemption were stated
briefly at tbe time of its allowance. It was
induced by the fact that manufacturers had. in
ignorance of the law, retained large quantities
of their products iu their own hands, and by
the supposed additional fact that much of the
property so tetained had greatly deteriorated
iu value.
Abundant opportunity having now been
Riven tor the disposal ot these inanufactmes,
there ia no good reason lor continuing a privi
lege so inconsistent with the general provis
ions of the law. adverse to the interests of
Northern manufacturers, and susceptible, as
experience has shown, of very great abuse.
It is, therefore, hereby ordered that on and
after March 1, 1866, all Southern manufactures
in possession of the manufacturer shall be held
subject to the present rate of duty—no ex
ception being made iu any case on account of
the date of manufacture.
H. McCulloch,
Secretary of tho Treasury.
Sinking or the Steamer Standish.— We
learn from the Savannah Advertiser that the
steamer Standish. with a heavy freight on
board for Augusta, suck at tbe wharf, where
she was lying, near market dock, on Thursday
night lasi. The goods consist. #of a quantity
ot government stores, aud a large lot of guano.
It appears that the Standish was lying next to
the wharf, and the steamers Emiiie and Reso
lute lying on the outside of her; and durirg
the high wind which prevailed on Thursday
night, the two steamers outside kept pressing
her into the wharf, until she struck on a pro
jecting post under water, which casued her to
careen over and sink. The cargo is entirely
damaged, and preparations .were being made
yesterday afternoon to have it taken out and
the steamer raistd. No blame can be attached
to any parties, as it was impossible to move
the outside steamers without damaging them
more or less on account of the high wind pre
vailing,

Army Joke. — Tho following good one, a
the expense of General J. B. Magruder, is told
by the Natchez Democrat :
While retreating from tbe Peninsular In
1862, the General and his staff stopped at the
house of a widow lady on the road and engaged
dinner. In a few moments Jim Phelps, a
Louisiana soldier, accosted the lady with—
“Madam, can I get dinner
“Yes, sir,” was the answer, “but as I am
preparing dinner for General Magruder and
staff, and have not room at my table for any
more, you wiil have to wait for a second
tabie.”
“Very well,, madam, thank you,” said
Phelps, taking his seat in a position to com
mand a view of the dining-room.
Watching the movements of the servants,
Phelps waited until the feast was on the table,
and while the hostess proeseded to tbe parlor
to announce dinner to the General and staff,
Phelps entered the dining rocm, and seating
himself at the table, waited farther develop
ments.
Upon the entrance of tbe party of officers
there was found to be seats for all but one, and
one politely returned to the parlor to wait.
The General took a seat next to Phelps, and,
after the first coarse was finished, turning to
Phelps, he inquired :
“Sir, have you any idea with whom you are
dining ?”
“No, sir,” coolly replied Phelps; “1 used to
be particular, but since I turned soldier I don’t
care who I eat with, so the victuals are clean.”
