4 JOAN OF ARC, The story of Joan of Arc * s familiar to all. But a doubt long existed as to the exact nature of her charaetar. Falling a victim to teachery, and executed by the enemies of her country every means was taken by her murderers to blacken her reputation. English history, even to this day. is generally unjust to her. The truth, as M. Miehelot has estab lished from contemporary writers is that Joan was enthusiast, who, being endowed with a vivid imagination, realized what to others were mere dreams. The advan ced science of the nineteenth century re cognizes such phenomena. Joan honest ly believed that she was in communion with spiritual advisers, and that Heaven had delegated to her the task of liberating her country from the English yoke. After hating been the terror of the in vaders for more than a year, and achieving’ a series of successes which ceased only with the final liberation of France, Joaii was captured by a party of Burgundians, who had joined the English against their native land, and were then besieging Campeigne. To the disgrace of her king, Charles the Seventh, no effort was made to procure her exchange. To the still greater disgrace of the French prelates, they sought to get her into the hands of the Inquisition, instigated by a secret lean ing t.ijtho British. Her doom was not left in doubt. The unscrupulous men, who directed English affairs during'the infan cy of Henry the Sixth, believing that tin disgrace ana death of Joan we e necessa ry to the retention of the British conquests determined to buy her of her Burgunda dians. Ten thousand livres, and an an nuity of three hundred more—large sums in that day—were the price of her blood. To have merely executed the poor girl would not. have answered the ends of her enemies It was requisite to destroy her influence as well as take away her life; and for this purpose there was nothing so eflia cious in that age as a charge of sorcry.— The traitorimn French prelates 1.-nt their aid to this malignant plot. The bishop of of Beauvais and five others, with the Vi car-General of the French Inquisition, were the prominent judges seel, cted by the tools of the British party. Every in nuity of mental torture was exhausted in gordes to induce Joan to confess to crime Her answers were preverted, she was de nied counsel; the rack was threatened; and even the pretended authority of the church was invoked against her. At last, - on the promise of life, she was induced to sign a confession artfully put before her. But nothing could save her, for not only did the brutal English soldiery, who had been prejudiced against her as a witch, cry out for her blood, but even the nobil ity demand it. The vilo arts which were now adopted ed to bring her to the stake, would seem incredible on any authority less positive than that which has come down to us.— At last the base intrigues succeeded’ Having laid aside the male attire, which she wore before her condemnation, she was tiieked into resuming it, and for this was condemned to the flames as a relapsed heretic and sorcerer. Placed in a cart, she was hurried to the market place of Rouen, where the dreaded doom was to be . inflicted. The stake was fixed upon a lofty scaf fold, not only that all might see her, suffer • but that the executioner might not be able to approach her to shorten her agonies.— Brought to the foot of the pie, Joan knelt •down, and after imploring pardon and au dibly forgiving her enemies, turned to the bystanders besought them to pray for her'. Her behavior, was so devout, humble and touching, that sympathy for her became contagious. The Bishop of Beauvais him self melted into tears. But this omotin was only temporary Re covering himself, Beauvais began to read the act of condemnation,- in which the dy ing girl was mocked with false accusations of schism, idolatry, and magic, When the terrible sentence was pronounced, J ohn, turning to the crowd, asked for a cross. An Englishman, rudely fashion ingone out of a stick, handed it to her. She took it, kissed it devoutly, and pressed it to her bosom. A priest, hastening to the church of St. Sauveur's brought a crucifix, which she embraced, having first placed the other' under her garments next to her skin. While he was exhorting her, the English began to grow impatient, and one of them rudely asked the priest if he intended them * to dine there. Immediately, and without waiting for an official order, others tore her away, and dragged her to the pile. As she gazed on the great city, the motion less and silent crowd, and the infuriated invaders, she cried, ‘Ah! Rouen, Rouen, much do I fear you will suffer for my death.’ Above her head was a placard denouncing her as a heretic and an idolater. When she had been made fast to the stake, the executioner* from below, set fire to the fag ots. At the sight, nature grave wty for a moment, and site uttered a cry, but seeing that’tho priest, who had ascended the seat fold with her, showed no signs of fear, for got her peril in the thought of him, and begged him to descend The smoke was now mounting around her. Occasionally tongues of flame ’shot' up nearly to her person Beauvais, in this extremity, ad van ed to the foot of the pile, hoping to j extract some admission from her." But she only answerd, with mild reproach; ‘ I die through you !' In vain he sought to make hear accuse i her kind. Though deserted by Charles, i she would not defame him, but defended him to the last. ‘Whether I have done well •or ill,’ -he : said, heroically 'he is faultless.’ At last the- flames reached her person Again nature succumbed for an instant, but im-| mediately she recovered herself'. iShe j ailed on God. She protested her inn.i- 1 ■ At times, the smoke and flames ■•ailed her entirely from view; but her! . -o was still beard invoking God and his -.huts; nor was aery of fear, ora murmur of pain ever again wrung from her. The spiectators could not endure "the awful sight. Mau\ fled in horror from the square; thousands were in tears; some prayed aloud for her with choking sobs. A few. oulv, ot her bitterest euemu s. attempted to laugh. One ofthese, a brutal Englishman, was about to threw a fresh sago; on the pile when suddenly her hand suuk upon her bosom, and crying, ‘Jesus', she died Twenty years after the French king did tardy justice to the martyred Joan. A fommission, appointed by the Pope, after hearing the depositions of more than a hundred witnesses, pronounced her in-- noeeut, and declared her sentence null. Ou the spot where she was exccutd, across was erected, which has subsequently been replaced by a statue e> her in the succeed- : iug retgu still more ample amends were < made to her, for Larjudgo# wusurderedto ] -JS |be prosecuted.

CURE FOR HYDROPHOBIA i The following extract is from a letter, • | dated New Orleans, May 9, 1855, from an 11 officer in the army to the commission o • Patents: “1 send you herewith some seeds for distribution, used here in the cure of the ’ bite of the mad dog. It is considered as J an effectual remedy in the parish of St. I Bernard of this State, and the cures which ; are stated to have been effected from their ’ use are certainly very remarkable. I re gret not being able to give their botanical name; but tlse plant is a tropical one, coming from Mexico —I believe from the department of Tobasco. The seeds are called here, ‘graines coutre. la rage,’ and ■« are used as follows : “Three of them are broken up or pound ed into small pieces, and put into a wine ! glass of the best sherry (Neres,) and al ■' lowed to steep for about twenty-four hours, ! and then being well stirred up, swallowed ;by the patient. The dose is repeated ■ three times a day for about nine days, when i the person or animal may be considered •as cured. lam told that oven dogs which 'I have been bitten by a rabid animal have ■ been cured by this treatment, or by put ting, a larger quantity of these seeds in i their food. “ The seed must be soaked in water i twenty-four hours before planting, and the I plant must be protected from rays of! • the i-:un while still young and tender. It resembles much the okra plant, and should ; be planted late in the spring.’’ BUSTED UP I We learn that a Know Nothing council ! in 'Autauga county went by the board a few days ago. At its last me ting the members had a hut discussion on the sub (ject of dissolving, and it was'finally car ried byanalino t unanimous vote. 1 here ! upon the book was brought out. and each ' .: member invited to come forward and ex-: | punge his name from the roll—when an ! amu iiig- scramble took place to get to the 1 : “ foul record ” first, some not waiting for ■ a pen, but dipping their fingers in the ink ! to draw the black line oyer their auto-! graphs! A pious, good old Democrat,l i who was for the party, in detailing the ■ i circumstances to our informant, said he I ! now breathed freer—that he had never I felt like an American freeman since he ! had been inveighed into the concern—! that a Know Nothing council was an unfit place for any body, and especially a Jeffer sonian Democrat. And this is but the beginning. Demo crats who have thoughtlessly joined the ' lantern party in Alabama, will soon see j that they have “got in the wrong box,” ; and withdrawals by hundreds will take I place in quick succession. Such was the • case in Virginia previous to the late elec tion in that State ; and such will be the I case wherever in the South this offshoot | of New England fanaticism has seduced: Democrats from their allegiance to the ' noble Democratic State Rights party.— Adv. <fc Gaz. ! Steamboat Novelty.—Two compa-. j nies, we believe; are taking steps here Jto organize for the building of light- ' | draught boats which will carry freight.— ! There is no difficulty in .getting boats \ which will draw a. little water —there arc ! a great many such—the object is to get; boats, for instance which on two-foot water j ■ will take 500 bags of cotton, and which ion plenty water will carry 1500 bales. | Up to this mark, one gentleman we know is prepared to have a boat built, if the j stock is taken; and of that there can be vety little doubt. One or two features in I the construction of this boat (the drawing jof which we have been permitted to in ; spet) will be great novelties. In addition i to great capacity and very light-draught, ! this steamer will be “as easily handled as a buggy.’’ We long to see it for we be lieve that such a boat on our river, would be a greater blessing to Montgomery than a donation of 8100,000 to the city treasury.

The Know Nothing Council will assem ble in Philadelphia to-morrow, and its pro ceedings will be noted with some interest A number of the Southern delegates have passed through this city and among them Albert Pike, Esq., of Arkansas, the most eminent of the Southern wing or the order. These delegates expressed strong hopes that the Convention would succeed in na tionalizing the Know Nothing party This will be a difficult task for a large portion of the northern delegations are Free Soilers The Massachusetts delega tion, headed by Senator Wilson, will either stamp their principles upon the party platform or withdraw from the Convention. A split seems unavoidable, whatever may be the course of the Convention upon the slavery subject. There not wanting signs that the feud between the two wings of the democratic party in New York is about to be recou- j ciled. Both the hards and the softs unite ! in rejoicing at the result, of the Virginia ■ election- The abolition rejoice at the | same result, because they said that if the j South embraced know-nothingism the j South would shape its policy on the slave-! ry question. It is now their belief that [ the northern know-nothings unite with j them under the lead of Senator Seward. | i Every thing nqw tends toa reorganization of! a powerful democratic Union party —North ' i and South in opposition to the free soil: ! and know-nothing parties. The present posp'ect of the crops in this | | country and in Canada is very good. All j our staples, except sugar, promise well. The simultaneous rise of consols and ; cotton in England shows that the com mercial depression, on account of the war, ! is now elevated, and that the demand for ! our gold must subside. We shall soon ■ serve out cotton and stocks and provisions j in quantities that will throw the balance i l in our fifvor. American securities must: i become more popular than ever abroad, if | political disturbances should be threaten- \ ed. Then; again, our own foreign diffieul-l l ties are brought down to the. narrow com-: j pass of a paper tyar between an' ex-minis-. ; ter and an ex-charge, about questions i ■ which no longer interest the public.- - • !On the whole, the country may be con-! i gratulated upon the present aspect of its : domestic affairs, and its relations to other ; countries. ■ The city election proceeds quietly.— ! i The attendance at the polls was prompt i and full.

Washington, June s.—The result of the election here yesterday shows that the ' Americans lost six Councilmen and gained | four Aldermen. The Ame,ican majority , !on joint ballot is fifteen.

I i Philadelphia, June s.—The Know! i Nothing National Convention is in session [ in this city this morning, but there is some doubt as to the precise location of | the meeting.

Well done for Early. A PREDICTION OF THE PRESENT WAR. The Rev. John Cumming, D. D., of the Scotch Church, London, in a lecture de livered in Exeter hall in the year 1847, pronounced, among other matters, the pro phetic words written below. They are copied from bis “Apocalyptic Sketch es’ : “Having explained the pournig out of six preceding vials the learned lecturer proceeds with the seventh—his text is Rev xvi., 17 to 21. “The seventh vial is ready to be pour ed out, or if not pouring out we are upon the very verge ot its being so. It trem bles in the hands of the angel We may expect that during the action of this vial, the mountaineer in the fastnesses—the miner in his subterranean caves —the voy ager upon the ocean’s bosom—the Arab in his desert—the moslem in his mosque —the Cossack in his Steppes—the King upon his throne—the mother in her ! household—the babe in the cradle—ail ! will feel its vibrations, receive the taint ; of its influence, and respond in a thousand | echoes to the voice from above, “It is j done.’ “There will be rocking thronesj there will be dislocated systems; there will be j nations scattered and shaked as by a I whirlwind; and the hearts of the great and | the mean, the rich and the poor, tremb - ling for fear of the the things coming on , earth “Now. you will notice that under the : seventh vial the ten-kingdom form is no ! longer to be. the distinctive characteristics i of the Romish nations; they are to assume ■ a new shape they will be divide ! into a i a tripartite shape; three great masses will I be the ultimate from into which all the n» | tions of Eurqpe and Christendom will be ! divided; as soon as you see three great . leading powers coming into collision, with , broad Europe for the hour «-f the conflict : you may expect tiiat tlie downfall of Ba j byh n, and the advent of Christ, and the dawn of thg millenium are mar It, is i probable that, this tripartite division will ' consist of Fiance leading its hosts up.m I the one side, as the great partisian o: the i Papacy; the Autocrat of all the Russian : who has more than once played a cruel ! game, may lead the second part; and I ■ have some idea that th s old England of i ours, so illustrious by its sainted sufferers, ’its noblejirmy of martyrs, its devoted i Chistians, its preached Gospel, its spread ing Christianity, its circulated Bibles, will ! be also the third part; and when the con i filet comes, it will be as of old, England j against the world, the the truth of God against the apostacy of Satan and the in fidelity of man ” FACTS 'fOr'thF PEOPLE, A writer in the Augusta Constitution alist remarks: In order to show you how little danger there is to the people of Georgia from those outrageous Catholics who so much disturb the repose of your secret order, let us look to their relative strength in this State. From the returns of the late Cen sus it appears that there are, in the State of Georgia, 1826 churches,. Out of this number there are not more than 8 -Roman Catholic bouses of worship. In other words, for every Roman Catholic in Geor gia, 232 Protestant Churches. The ag [ gregate accommodations for the Roman j Catholic Church is 4,250. The aggregate • accommodations for the Protestant church es is 627,167. That is the Protestant I churches have 145 times as great as the | foreign population of Georgia. The total population is 906,185. The foreign pop ; ulation, whi> h includes most or all the ! Catholics, is 6,488. Say there are 90,- ; 000 voters in the State, native born, which :is allowing one tenth of the population to be voters, and then allow one-fifth of the foreign and Catholic population to be vo ters, and we have about 1,000 or 1,200 Catholic or foreign votes. That is for every hundred Catholic or foreign votes in Ga., we have 900 native born or Protest ant votes. And it is this hand ’ full of Catholics and foreigners, often ignorant, uncultivated, and uninfiueutial, who are going to destroy the liberties of this State, j Sir, it is the very madness of fanaticism i for you and your midnight brethren to ! apprehend danger from such a souref ! And as there is no danger to us from Cath ’ olics and foreigners I have shown that it is : bad policy for us to join our enemies at 1 the North to destroy our friends in that j section. ■ STATE OF GEORGIA—FOBSTTH CO. j VITHEREAS, Bailey F.
