THE DAILY TIMES. , loinn.v j Special to Daily Timks. by 8. k A. Llue.) THE NAPOLEONIC DYNASTY. Pams, May 14.—La Velonte Ration ale, the organ of Priuee Napoleon, In a loading article declares if the Prince Imperial should die, Prince Napol eon would never claim the throuo. i The principle of hereditary succes sion is dead. A third Empire, aiming at the restoration of Prince Napoleon j or his nephew, would end in ruin. I The article concludes: Wo never doubted that France, even if consult ed through a plebiscite, would ener getically pronounce in favor of the Republic, which is the form of gov ernment most compatible with uni versal suffrage. ;AN ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE QUEEN VICTORIA. London, May 14 Noon. Thoyouth | O’Connor, who, on the day of thanks giving for tho recovery of the Prince of Wales, attempted to shoot tho Queen, was again arrested on the sth inst. The Queen was holding a draw ing-room at Buckingham and O’Con ner was found iu tho same place, from which, on a former occasion, ho pointed a pistol at the Queen. He 1 was arrested quietly and sent to Han well asylum by order of Sir Tnomas Henry, chief magistrate of How street ■ police court, ou certificates of pliysi ] clans that the prisoner was subject to suicidal aud homicidal impulses. THE LONDON TIMES ON THE SITUATION. The Times this morning says there could hardly have been a more criti cal situation than existed in Berlin upon the arrival of the Emperor of Russia. The German Government may be able to declare that a hostile movement was never officially enter tained. lint a few days since there was serious danger that warlike counsels would prevail. Wo may suppose that Prince Gortschakoff cautiously expressed a determina tion to treat as an enemy the first State disturbing the peace. In spite of England’s attitude of reserve, we believe the Government thought it a national duty, in the recent crisis, to express its opinion very decisively in regard to maintenance of peace. Tlio communication was amicably received and a most satisfactory re ply returned. France has expressed acknowledge ments of England’s friendly attitude. ] The Daily iYcic.s reports that the j Czar has mentioned his desire to con- 1 for with Thiers unofficially iu rela tion to European affairs. Thu Daily Telegraph is informed that Russia has given England friend ly and satisfactory assurances in re gard to Central Asia. * -*- - The Trial ol Jiulge William.. MoNTooMElty, May 14. In tho U. S.

(HAVE been Haying a good deal through the papers of late extolling JORDAN’S JOYOUS .in.KP as a most wonderful NEURALGIA CURE; but for fear you may exclaim us Bhakspearo when he said “You cram these words into mine car against tho stomach of my senso,” 1 now sub mit to you what persona say who have, tried my Neuralgia Julep, with the most complete and satisfactory result: CoLUMRUB, January 16, 1875, Mr.Jordan:—l tuke great pleasure in recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a mot wonderful relief in one oj the severest attacks ol neuralgia my daughtor ever has liud. She lias been treated lor it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used ail the usual remedies with little suc cess. lean with much confidence hope for a per manent cure. It ih only two days since we began the use of it. aud it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yuiii’h, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. Petersburg, Va., Jan. 15, 1875. Jno. L. Jordan, Esq., Columbus, Qa.: Dear Sir—Having learned through my friend R. A. Bacon ol your ‘ J. J. J." preparation for re lief ol neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc cess in rny own family, in the worst case, too, that ever came under my observation, 1 now enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as 1 con sider it too valuable 11 medicine to be without, though 1 have no Immediate use far it. Very truly yours, JAM EH T. TOSH. Uoi.uxtnus, Ga., Nov. (j, 1874, Dr. J. Ij. Jordan: Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep for Nourulgia bus been tried iu my family, au-i with the most happy result,and I find in it all you claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re commend it to all who am suffering from Neurul gia as something a little remarkable In its cura tive power. J. D. WORTHY. Columbus, Ga„ Dec. 18,1874. Dr. J. /.. Jordan —Your medicine, Joyous Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having been a great sufferer from the pain, aud having tried the prescriptions oi many physicians, yet all proved ol uo effect uutil I tried four doses of your Julep, When 1 was immediately relieved, ami have not been troubled since. H. 0. MADDOX. Lake City, Fla., Nov. 4, 1874. Dr. J. Jordan —l’louho send me another bot tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend, i have never found anything equal to it lor Neuralgia. Two doses cured me almost instantly, and I can sufely recommend it to do what you say. Very' respectfully, Ac., JOHN M. JKFFIIYH. Fern an dxna, Fla., April, 1874. Dr. J. L. Jordan.

Printed from new typo, and illus trated with Several Thousand Engravings aud Maps. The work originally published under tho title of Tin; New American Cyclopedia wan com pleted in 1863, since which time the wide circula tion which it has attained in all parts of the United States, and the signal developments which have .uken place in every branch of science, lit erature anil art., have induced tho editors am! publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, und to issue anew coition entitled The America:. Cyclop*iia. Within the last ten years the progress of dis covery in every department of knowledge has (hade anew work of reference au imperative want. The movement of political affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the industrial and useful arts aud the convenience aud refinement of social life. Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume of the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and anew course of commercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Largo accessions to our geographical knowl edge have been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last do cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names aro iu every one’s mouth, and of whoso lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, of which the de tails are as yet preserved only iu the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take tbeir place in perma nent and authentic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, it lias accordingly been the aim ol the editors to bring down tho information to the latest possi ble dates, and to furnish au accurate account of the most recent discoveries iu science, of every fresh production in literature, and of tbu newest inventions in tho practical artH. as well as to give a succiuot aud original record of tho progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun after long and care ful preliminary labor, and w ith tho most ample resources for carrying it on to a successful term ination. None of the original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed ou new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with the sumo plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such improvements in its composition uh have boon suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for tho first time iu tho present edition havo been added not for the Rake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all branches of science and of natural history, and depict tho most famous and romarkable features of scenery, architecture and art, as well as tho various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than eraboliahmeut, no pains havo been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopaedia, aiid worthy of Its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, folly illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.
