ENGLAND.
London, Feb. 9. —The Queen opened
the session in person. The Lords and
Commons mustered in full force with a
large attendance of spectators. There
was the usual civil and military dis
play. The weather was fine. The
speech had no effect upon stocks.
The military chest of the French ar
my of the East, containing a million
and a half of francs, was surrendered to
the Swiss Government.
The following are the opening para
graphs of the Queen’s speech :
My Lords and Gentlemen : At an
epoch of such moment to the future
fortunes of Europe, I am especially de
sirous to avail myself of your counsels
The war which broke out in the month
of July between France and Germany,
has raged until within the last few days
with unremitting and likewise with un
exampled force, and its ravages may be
worse, unless moderation and fore
thought, prevailing over all impediments,
shall sway the counsels of both parties
whose well-being are so fatally concern
ed.
At the time when you separated I
promised a constant attention to the sub
ject of neutral obligations, and I under
took to use my best endeavors to pre
vent the enlargement of the area of the
war, and to contribute to the restoration
of an early and honorable peace. In
accordance with the first of those declar
ations I have mantained the right, and
strictly discharged the duties of neutral
ity. The sphere of the war has not
been extended beyond the two countries
originally engaged. Conforming with
the care of the cordiality of my relations
w T ith the belligerents, 1 have forborne
from whatever might have been con
strued as gratuitous and unwarrantable
interference between parties, neither of
whom had shown a readiness to propose
terms of accommodation, such as to bear
promise of acceptance by the other. I
have been able on more than one occa
sion to contribute toward placing the
representatives of the contending coun
tries in confidential communication, but
until famine compelled the surrender of
Paris, no further result had been obtain
ed. The armistice now being employed
for the convocation of an Assembly in
France, has brought about a pause in
the constant accumulation of human suf
fering, and has awakened the hope of
a complete accommodation. I pray that
this suspension may result in a peace.
London, Feb 11. —The Times views
with mixed feelings the appointment of
a commission for the settlement of intan
gible grievances. A settlement is de
sirable, but, unhappily, a treaty has been
rejected by the American Senate, indi
cating but a slight desire on the part of
Americans to remove the grounds of
differences between th£ two countries.
When the principle of the Alabama
claims is determined, a settlement of in
dividual claims will be an easy matter.
The Times adds ; The tone of Ameri
can discussion must change in all res
pects before good feeling is restorod.
The prolongation of the amnesty de
pends entirely upon the temper of the
French assembly regarding Prussian de
mands for territory, money, and the dis
mantlement of frontier forts.
Duke D’Aumale’s chances for domi
nance in France are inferior to his neph
ew’s.
she Conservatives were successful at
Rouen by a large majority.
A dispatch from brussels says alarm
ing distress continues in Paris. The
Germans permit bqjt few provisions
to enter. They suppress at Versailles
all letters from Paris and allow no tele
grams and few letters to enter the city.
Generate Changarnier and Faidherbe
are elected from Somme.
A decree has been issued by the Bor
deaux government calling out the mili
tary class of seventy-one immediately.
Bismarck declines to treat with Swit
zerland for the return of French who
entered that State.
London, Feb. 12. —Napoleon has is
sued a proclamation to the Electors of
France, in which he says substantially
that during hostilities he abstained from
every word that might cause party dis
smsion, and not protest against
any violation of his right when the Em
pire, which had been three times ac
claimed. was overthrown and abandoned.
He had hoped for a successful defense,
but now, when the struggle is suspended
and all reasonable chances of victory is
gone, it is time to call to account the
usurpers for bloodshed and ruin and
squandered resources. He says solid
peace is only reasonable when the people
are consulted respecting the government
most capable of repairing disasters to
the country. For himself he does not
claim his repeatedly confirmed right,
but till the people are regularly assem
bled to express their will, there is only
one government in which resides the
national sovereignty capable to heal the
wounds, to bring hope to firesides, to
re-open the profaned churches for pray
ers, and to restore industry, concord and
peace.

MADAME DELACHAMPS
ALONE IN A MOUNTAIN GORGE.
Snagfy enaonnaed amid tbs wilds of one of the
Middle States, lived Madame Delachampa, many
years ago, with do known pr tector, save a faith
ful dog that ever stood beside her to defend in
time of need. Her small, moss-covered cabin,
wrapped with tbe wild rose and honeysuckle, ap
peared hid away by a cluster of undergrowth,
and closely environed on the north and east by
a deep, cragg* ravtot that led awav back to the
mounUiu gorge.
Here, au idling the ambient air, wafted from
nature's green award clinging to th- m aintain
side, bulbing her brow ia early morn's gentle
dewdrop, sbe lived unlit ry and alone for many
long years. Tbe catamount’s eneauhlv mid
night jell, and ! he wolfs doleful howl, frequent
ly aroused her from p'eesant tnidn ghl slumbers.
Now Hu J then she would ctugrge from her un
known home and mingle with the inhabitants
around about for or e or two mouths at a time.—
She was eccentric in her acts and all viewed her
aa a living curiosity.
While from home, she apparently had but one
object, and that was the relief of her afflicted sex.
Under a belt on her left side, eould l.e s< so an
old fashioned dirk of considerable sixe. carried
for her own protection, while strapped aeons her
shoulder was suspended a curious sack made
from tbe
Sk ins of Rabbits & Raccoons
Arranged in alternate stripes. This beg cen
tained some old parchment, cu'ious relics, a lew
hght garments, and a smaller sack containing a
course powder made from certain roots koowu
only to herself, the secret of which she c’.uqg to
as with the tenacity of death. Bhe sallied forth
from her wild mountain home, to act tbe Good
Samaritan, with this unknown vegetable powder, „
which she claimed possessed a wondeiful power
over all Diseases incident to the female sex. She
termed it “womb physic,” with which the pro»
posed to cure all affections and derangements of
that organ, and kindred complaints, rata of
charge. With such singular magic did she re
lieve all who applied, that wit Lin a tew years htr
name and tame became known tar and wide, and
hundreds of suffering females applied for relief
and returned to their homes healthy and happy.
Many were anxious to know her great secret, and
large sums of money were offered if she would
divulge it—but she stubbornly refused.
During her solitary life, she became intimate
with only one womao, a Doted midwife some
miles distant, to whom sbe piomised to
DIVULGE HER SECRET
Before dying. In a few years, ss the sombre
shades of night began to close around her totter
ing frame, she imparted this great secret to this
friend.

She too gained quite t reputation for relieeing
the suffering of her sex, and strange it may ap -
P*R r_ she scarcely erer failed to cure those old
chronic female complaints that had resisted all
ordinary modes of treatment. Many years ego,
the writer of this, while engaged in the Practice
of Medicine, by a little strategy, succeeded in
procuring the secret of this wonderful vegetable
Regulator, which bad never been known to Ike
Medical Profession.
He gave it a fair and impartial trial in tbe
treatment of various forms and stages of female
complaints with such decided satisfaction, that
ta 1860 he called public attention to its virtues in
Gross’ Medico Chirurgical Review
Combined with other known vegetable Tonics,
having gieat |pnwer over the uterine organs;
with Black Root to act upon the Liver and Bow
els, and Soluble Citrate of Iron to correct the
blood, he has formed a wonderful combination
for the cure of all Female Complaicta. consider
ing it the only Female Regulator known, and
dow offers this valuable compound to the afflict
ed female, under the name of
ENGLISH Female BITTERS.
The Medical Profession at large, have long felt
the need of just such a medicine, consequently it
is Dot strange that they so eagerly prescribe and
recommend these Bitters to their female patients.
If you could see the pile of smiling approvals
and encomiums from physicians and the public,
who have cured their wives, their daughters and
their friends, by the use of these Bitters, do sick
ly female would hesitate to use them. This Fe
male Regulator is adapted for old, young, mar
ried or single females who are effected with acute
or chronic forms of Uterine derangements. They
cure painful, suppressed scanty, profuse or irreg
ular Menstrua'ion, Chlorosis or Green Sickness,
I |uor Albus or Whites, Hysterics, Falling of the
Womb, Ulceration and Irritability of the Womb,
pain in the sMe, back or loins, sick | Head ache,
palpitation or fluttering of the Heart, burrisd
breathing, swimmi- gos the Head, c Id Feet and
Hands, losaol appetite, Indigestion, torpid Liver,
MelanchoUy, Nervousness, Wakefulness, Barren
ness, physical Prostration, etc , etc. Many of
these are relieved by usiDg only one bottle.
