Tho schools opened on Monday, the day apocifled by law, under the auspices of tho old Board of Direc? tors.

Speaking of ths death of Soulouqne the Courrier des Etais Unis savs : "We are assured that Sou louque, called Fa?stin L. is dead, fn this ago of negro rehabilitation tho figure of Soulouque is a grand one. His fife presents some striking featuras. He was born in 1789, the dav of tho taking of the Bas tile, a date full of happy omens. At first a slave, te was accustomed to contemplate nature and to sonnd its mysteries by picking off" caterpillars from the cocoa trees ot his matter. They say in Hay ti that he one day met in tho woods an old negress, come from Martinique, who prophesied a great future for him. lt was the same negress who had foretold her future elevation to Josephine Taseher de la Paierie. In 1 i03 the young Soulouque, hardly fourteen years old, took part in the war against the French and made himself remarkable for a cowardice .vhich in no wise controlled his inhumanity. We have no intention of reviewing his military "career. Ho served in turn all governments and" took all the oaths that wore required with a somersaultic f*cihty worthy of moro advanced countries. Hav? ing attained tho Presidoncy bv a stroke of luck, ho did not long coitent himself with thia modest post, but naturally dazzled by famous examples he pnt the Constitution in his pocket, manufactur? ed a now one, and bocame Emperor like anv ono else by the Uraco of Uod and the national will. The black party supported him assisted by the 1 sect ot the Yandoux. Tho mulattoes were trodden down. Soulouque triumphant, wished to surround , himself with a brilliant aristocracy. He? wished a , court and he had one. "Me wish little counts, bic marquis and great dukes," as ho eloquently 1 said to the Senate. And, in effect, by virtue of his ( sovereign power, he croated a Count Crv Babv, a , Duko Salt-cellar, a Prince Sugar Plum and so*on. If fortune had favored him in ms ware against tho 1 Dominicans he would have decorated, with the ti- 1 ties of his battle-fields, some of his generals. t This is a pious custom to perpetuate the memory of blood i'.pUt and of the massacres of thousands of 1 men. i Soulouque had many manias. Like all his f crowned brothers he delighted in tinsel, feathers , and plumes. Ueneral Bourn, of the Grand Luck- 1 ess of Gerolstein, would not have been out of place t at his court. For want of orders enriched with a liamonds he ornamented his officers with pieces cut from tin sardine boxes ; an elegance little fae tidious. which proved that he loved order and f sconomy in his finances. After the exam- I pie of Henry IT., of Louis XIV. and v jf Victor Emmanuel, Soulouque adored wo? men and ho espoused a great many over the " left shoulder in spite of the leonine rag?; of a \delina his legitimate wife. These morgan- <T Ute marriages became '.more and more fro? ment toward the end of his reign, but r itio old Emperor oouid not be rejuvenated Uke it Faust by Mephistopheles and be contented him- ti ?elf with what our fathers courteously called dei nenus sujfrages. Tho marriago vyasjaon^?^ifrjg ? R^POUB?^ iou nbwwife to me ; you faithful to tl ne or you come." And this cou ic was accompan- ?2 ed bv a gesture as significan vu as the famous winkling of the eyo of the joyous King Louis "3 CI ' to his boon companion Tristan. All this is la listorical. The last wires of Soulouque lived as ?E estai virgins. . , A less innocent mania of Soulonqno's consisted in D shooting indiscriminately bis enemies and his cl ricuds. Ho bas beon justly blamed; for if it i? tl useful to suppiesn one's adversarias, it seems im jjliteto attack one's snpporteiB. Those who *_ mew Soulouque best nover knew exactly if be acted ? bus from rashness or from jov iahty, or from au nnate fondneas for blood letting. The most in? dulgent judges would hava some trouble in admit ing noy of these excuses. Perhaps, however, it s not tor bm- age tp judge. In less than eighty V( rears we have seDii the most civilized peoploon fe be earth massacre their kin*, limb" queen, their C| rreat poets, their men of science and a crowd pf nnooent beings. People have been killed every- 8< vhere on various pretexts. Becently even a gen- lt >rouB prince has Uoen assassinated. Is it fair then e< br an age covered with crimes and blood to judge 30 egverely the defunct Sovereign of Payti ? Soulouque ambitioned always the glory of con- tl meats, but ho only reaped Waterloo defeats. He e? .ead print not wiibout tpfficulty, and more erudite ? ban Charlemagne, who could only seal his letters Kith tho handle ot his Bword ; ho know how to 3e ipcll and sign bin own name. Tall of stature, ho tl vas not among the ugliest of his race, although ho h vas much further removed from tho Apollo of Bol ridere than the gorilla ; ana ho only felt himself P tbove his feJiow mortals when ho was druuk-a ai ruperiorlty which he enjoyed over other princes. jt The Frolic in Prussia. The Frobc, on the way from Cherbourg to Kron? stadt, put in at Stettin,' Prussia, to take on board Mrs. Admiral Farragut and party, who had come >vcrland, through Cologne, up the Rhine, and Ber in from Paris. The appearanco of the Frolic at Stettin was the finit visitation of an American Bhip o Prussian waters, and the greatest curiosity was manifested on the part of the Prussians. At first hero was a kind ot hesitation about fhp progress )f the Bbip up the Oder-on the part of the Prus lians, who were taken completely by surprise at be first appearance of an American armed ship (teaming HO far inland. As the kind in ention of the Frolic wa* manifested, the lesitation of the Prussians gave way to curiosity, ben unbounded courtesy, then enthusiasm, vhich went on increasing amid shouting, rejoic ng, firing of cannons, and bands of music, till one rrand, wild and spontaneous oyation from land ind Bhoro welcomed the trobe >n Prussian waters. da the Frobc approached Stettin, tho ehoro batte? ries pealed forth the national salute to America, md on ail sides was run up the American flag. Tho people thronged the shore in crowds, while the Prussian garrison was marchod out, and stood at paradrf rest, to welcomo the Frolic's arrival. The powspapers came out with extra editions announcing the ship's arrival, and tho Prussian commander came on board; welcom? ing the ??jnp'a arrival. On the morning of the llth, the peepje, nobility, officers, and ladies came thronging on board, and during the day about 15,000 people looked orer the Frolic with the greatest curtOBitv and admiration. ,On the arrival of Mrs. Farraguf and party- from Berlin, thc Prus? sian authorities furnicbed magnificent carriages to convey them to the ship. TJi.e people thronged the carriage, tlurowing bouquets and shouting America from 'me railroad to the Frolic's boat, where Prussian bands and elegantly dressed aids-de-camp accompanied the ladies on board. Once on board, the grand salvos of artil? lery burst out from the shore, and evorv houss-top, and everv available space of ground on either side of the Oder was thronged irifb people, waring American colors and shouting America ! The steamers canyr?g the American flag now pushed out from the shore withband3 plaving American airs, and thronged with officers and Dobihtv, who accompanied the Frolic to 8wine mude, where a grand ball was improvised in honor of the American ship. Nc one can account for the vast enthusiasm of the Prussians, unless Hearne politically through the command of King TVilliam, at Berlin. It would be apropos to mention the tact, that the Frobc was one of the Clyde built steamers, fitted out in England as a blockade-runner tor the rebels. She was captured bv our fleet off Charleston dui - in"- the war. . Her original nome in England was the Lord Clyde, and hor rebel mme was A. E. Yance. General Cunby. To ike Editor of the New York Tribune : SIR :-It is just and generous in you to "sus? pend judgment' in regard to the recent appoint? ment of General Cooby. I served with him, under the most intimate official and personal relations, in this city, in thc War Department, and in the militan- division of West Mississippi, and, while the people do rot know it, I know that, in his own quiet, unpretending wav, he "assumed'' many .-responsibilities," which satisfied me of his un? swerving and uncompromising loyalty in thc full application ot thc word, and enable rae to predict that Slr. Joiir.son will lind himseir beautifully mistaken when he thinks that General Canbv wil be a tool to his '-policy ' any more than General Sickles. It was my fate during the war to serve under jud "v.ith many regular officers ol note, but I don't ' know of any whu so early and heartily endorse ! the emancipa? tion views ot Mr. Lincoln as General Canby, and although I have no doubt that he would iutensely dislike to bo called '-a polit;cal general.'1 vet I am sure he is at heart a true Republican, and that bis actB will very socu show him to be 6ucb.

W. 3 - t To the Editor of tilt Dady NtWi : t Your correspondent, last sunnier and auto wan looking upon the beautifully cultivated fi aud vine-clad hills of dear old France-he hat i weeks wandered through the gardens, bouleva 1 and picture galleries of tho charming city of Pi each day developed new interests, and new cha to him. Paris is the Paradise of France, France is tho Eden of the continent of Europe feel quite sure there is no country in the wi where one can get so much real enjoyment for money as in Fiance. To one fond of travel I gorgeous scenory, ho will find it in the little public of Switzerland-hero arc beautiful lakes ! fertile valleys., and mountain gorges, and catara to gratify the most romantic. Crossing tho Al you step into Italy- its blue sky and balmy tropi climate sends a thrill into the Southern hes There ia Germany, with its finely cultivated fiel its busy wor) -ops and grand old cities, crowe with the most industrious and economical peo| in the world. England, with ita London and Liv pool, its Manchester and Birmingham, a lit Island-a perfect hive of busy bees, is worth trip across the Atlantic to see. And dear c Scotland, with its commercial Glasgow and litera Edinburg, its honest and frugal people, has chan that few countries possess. To me, down-trodcl Ireland, with ita Paddies and potatoes, its pe and its pigs, was deeply interesting. But there is a new country, discovered recent by a Dold adventurer-CHBISTOPHEB COLUMBUS called America. After all, there is but one Amei ca. There was a time when the ten States no known as territories were the Paradise of Amer ca. Alas! four years of desolating war and t? years of political anarchy have driven the ADAS and EVES from, this Eden. The biasing serpoi is to he seen all over this once happy land; th very ground seeniB cursed, and thorns and thistle are fast taking the place of the luxuriant cotto and rice plant. WY may expect this state of thing to continue until the ugly family quarrel is sel tied. There will be no solid prosperity again North or South, until the Union is restored and just, equal and uniform government establi?hei throughout the States. A few months since I lef the "City by the Sea," and am making an oxtensin tour through the Slates and a portion of Canada I had never been farther Weat than Cincinnati and had not seen Ute immense prairies of thit W estera world, or the mother of waters, and wac anxious to visit the valley of tho groat Mississippi, From Chicago to St. Louis you pass through the ?entre of Illinois, ono of the finest of the Western States. On each side of thojlllinoia Central railway, is far as the eye can reach, you see broad fields ol joni, and green pastures, on which hundreds ant! .housands of fat cattle are grazing. Your readers viii be surprised to leam that these rich prairie iolds, situated as they are in the heart of a corni? ly boasting of free white labor, are cultivated tn a nanner that would be a disgrace to the disorgan zed freed labor of the South. The majority of tho armers plant their seed, and seem to trust to Providence to cultivate it. In maty of the fields he weeds and grass were as high as the cora. I ,m quite nure tho yield of corn with such slip ihod cultivation will not be one-fourth what t should be. The best cultivated farms have seen in my tour were in Tennessee and 'irginia. Genorally in the Western States the ind is very imperfectly cultivated. Large barns nd neat tann houses are few and tar between. Iiis state of things is preduced mainly by the sdtless spirit of emigration. Nearly every farmer i ready to sell out and move farther Weat. As the de of emigration is coming in from the Pacific, it i to Le Loped our people may H o UM day have an ie labor of th? Wew JSi) h?a?uJLlloAflUtf nat ;ed by the war as that of the South. Under the old rstem we had the beat organized labor in tho nd. This labor should be improved by the new icmtives introduced-freedom and education. I shove, however, that educated men aro more in inod to live by their wits than by the sweat of ie brow. But hero is St. Louis. When I have tated I may have something to say of this groat 'estera city. O. W. W. IN SPEAKDJO of the "clumsy and obscure style hich Mr. BANCROFT again exemplifies in his last ?lum?, a writer in a Westorn paper remarks : ' 'Be ire putting this history into final shape Mr. BAN SOFT would have done well had he got a place on >me first-class newspapor where he might have ramed to write. There is not a reporter connect 1 with any of the leading journals who ia not his iperior ; for there is no school of writing so lorough as that afforded by the daily press. The tsiast and most popular authors of England and merica-DICKENS and IBVTNQ-commenced as mrjudists ; and it is because they are journalists iat"-certain editors whom the writer mentions ave achieved great success as the authors of opular books. So far as we can analyze journalism ad the journalistic style, we suppose the peculiar y about them is the directness with which the mat n in hand is always approached. The "beating jund the bush," the digressions, the " padding," ie exploitation of one's personality, whicib are so sreroon among common hock-makers, have no ?ace with the journalist- To have something j say, to say it forcibly and clearly, and, above ll, to say it directly and pointedly, are the points iat we observe in the best newspaper writers. ,H a rule, the questions of the hour require very rompt ?nd decinve treatment, and each requires 3 be treated specially i?u4 bj itaolf. There may, inuiig authors, be great intellects and charming enuises, like MONTAIGNE, whom you permit to ilk about everything whenever they wish to talk bout ny thing ; but such cases are excep onal in litcratuie, and cannot bo tolerated at all i journalism. We certainly think that five years xiii on tho Now York Press would havo made fr, BANCROFT a far moro concise, yaltiahlo and oadable historian than he nqw is. The War tu Abj.t.?ltila. A lew days ago it was reported by telegragh bat the English prisoners in Abyssinia, whoso lard fate had occasioned so much anxiety, had leen liberated from tho hand of King Theodore iv a ?and of native rebolB, who would probably eloaso them (ty moderate terms. A later arrival, lowcvor, brings the" inlorirjation that Theodore till holds many of his prisoners. Consequently, he preparations which liad boon begiih at Boul? ia'" tor au invasion of Abyssinia, with ?n army omposed partly of sepoys, are still going for? rard, and wity not bo bold back longer than teceasafv. If is stated that the army of inva ion will comprise about ten thousand men, ncluding an unusual proportion of artillery. Much douLt is felt in England as to the prac icabilitv of a successful invasion by an English irmv, on account of the difficult nature of the ?un try, and the want of influential and assail? able centres. The whole country, near)y three lundred ?iousaud square miles in extent, is jroken into isolated sections by high mountains, iomewhat like Now Granada. 'Hie principal range nins North and South, within Irom thirty to ona aundred miles of the Red Sea, the streams on the ?Yest side flowing into the Nile. ..'he principal icaport ia Massouah. in tae North, but the pop? ulation is chiefly in the South. Should the troops and anywhere in Somali, the savago and little ?nown region lving South of Abyssinia, a vast de? sert vilj have to be passed bv the army before it :an reach its object. , The population id g?ren in tho WYimar almanac it four millions and a hair, fctoniu ifcvellera put it ?i a million less. Thcvaro said tobe littie eon trolled bi morality, and very feebly united under Dne government. Tho nominal miers claim de? scent from King Solomon ind tho Qr.oen of Sheba. They rule arbitrarily until their enemies become strang, and then give phce to some rival "good? enough Bon or Solomon," of which there aro always plentv. The three great provinces, Tigre in the north', Arnhara in tho middle, and Shoa in the south', bear iiUl? more than nominal auYgiauce to the titular king, wuoae greatness has for a long time depended more upon thb deference paid him bv England, than upon any inherent strength or power. The soldiers are said to be (esp?rate tightens, according to the means at their disposal, but under the present good understanding between England, France, Turkey and tgypt, there is no country to which they can look for help. On the other hand, the impassable mountains and swamps, the facilities for dofenco or escape, the difBculty which the invading army wjl) experience in reach? ing places and finding peoplo, ai a thejr surest de? fence, and ? ill make the war tedious and costly, and its aoccesa doubtful.

Serious, modest, intelligent, humble, industrious, self respectful, thero is, especially among the wo? men, a certain promise of spiritual life, an unworld? liness guaranteed by their inability to participate in the pleasure of those above them, and their dis? taste for the habits of those below them, which seems to say that from them is likely to spring a new generation of souls, unspoiled by err.ptv met? aphysical subtleties, and unconupted b> worldli? ness."

To the Eddor oj the Ne York Tribune: SIB : Your issue of J o 26th, containing an ar? ticle from your Waahinpn correspondent on the strength of the rebel aries in the field, has only recently come into my kids, and I have examin? ed it wi'th a great deal on teres t. Its details cor? respond in general withiy own information and belief, except where an it em pt ia made to sup? ply the missing muster-lls of Lee's army at the most important and infesting period of the war. Why are those rolls rosing ? Who mutilated the record in abatraotinshem ? Until it is satis? factorily shown to the cttaary, I shall never b2 lieve that the Army of N-thern Virginia at any time exceeded 70,000 effeivo men; and at several important periods I knont was about 30,000, to wit, as near as I am able 1 say : Fitst Bull Run, 28,000; Antietam, 30,000; Frederioksburg. 32,000. As these are candidly-ttei fained impressions, on the best data I have, iyou or any of your cor? respondents know more ao?t it, on irrefragable data, I would gladly ftndleferentially accept the information. I venture to correct JUT correspondent in a small, perhaps unimportat, matter, to wit, the Confederate force at Moho, at the closo of the war, whioh he estimates ai 20,000. I was the in? spector-general of that (strict, and ran inform you that the force defendig Mobile when it was attacked by General Canb; wan about 7000 strong ; this included a city battabn and three regiments of reserves, robbed from tte oradle and the grave; of the seasoned and quai regular troops there were about 5000. incluain, some dismounted cav? alry and several batteries 'hich had lost their guns at Nashville. I would add that whonTavlor surrendered to Canbv he had, as far as I tn informed, about 9000 troops in the field, of winn 4000 were infantry, dismounted cavalry and rtillery, under Maury, md about the same nura be of cavalry under For? rest. The other 10001 beleve a liberal allowance tor pi eke ts and other outlv?g squads in the south? ern and western part of thu department.

From the incidents mentioned, re presume it 'refers to Maurice, the brother of Ingenie de G narin : A young professor of the Sorbonne, an ardent nd pioua Catholic, died af ;er a short illness, leav ag a widow and young family, and little for their uppart, exoept same unpublished manuscripts, .'ho friends of the family had those revised and ent to press, and the celebrated Father Lacor laire consented to write a preface to tho work, n thia, while paying the highest compli? ments to the literary abilities of the brilliant oung writer, he also made a warm eulogium of lia private character; stating that during hie life ie had avoided mast of the snares and pitfalls of his wicked world, with one exception-matn aony. The book came out, an? the widow of the ions author made a journey to Rome to lay a opy at the feet of Pius IX,, and to beg of him to ive it his official sanction. Tho kind-hearted old ian ran bia eve over the prelaco of Father Lacor aire, and said to the lady, putting his finger on he passage referring to matrimony ; "Madame, 0 approve of a book containing thia paragraph foulq be extremely uncomplimentary toward ou, and, besides, tho head ot the church cannot cknovfledge that church to have only aix aacra lonts, and one a 'anare or pitfall !'

The morn ng is generally so employed, befqre tbfi dew has aft the grass. If spinning be carried on after hat time, the spinner, who ie always a woman inder thirty years of age, spins the yarn over- a ian of water, the evaporation of which affords officient moisture to prevent the fibrea from be lecoming too brittle to handle. Delicate aa tho qualin is it will wash, which European muslins rill not. The disability of the Dacca muslin, lotwithstanding fineness-a piece of "evening lew," one yard wide and four yards jong, only reigning 556 grains-is said to'be owing to the treater number of twists gi^en. to the Dacca yarn, ts compared with the finest muslin varna of Lngland or France. The time taken to spin and vea ve tho threads in a piece of "woven air" ii rory great; the reader will not, thorefore, bo sur mseu to hear that it sella at the rate of a guinea a rard._ The newest contrivance io not always the best. The American and English style of yoking oxen is bv irranging the load to pull on the shoulder pf tue inimalH, gjving them 7no' chance to use 'the tre? mendous muscles of the neck, where, in truth, their greatest strength lies.

Little di Marshall : GENTLEMEN : I used, during the past season, one of "Ingersoll's Portable Cotton Presses," purchased of you last september. I have always been ptejudiced in favor of the -Screw Press," and nothing but dire necessity in? duced me to try any other. I take pleasure, however, in adding my testimony in favor of its entire adaptation to the wanta ot s cotton plantation. It has surpassed my most sanguine expectations. I have packed with but two hands, vet I prefer four- Cvo at each lever. My bales all weighed over GOO lbs. The first lot I sent to market averaged CG2 1 .,8. My impression is that 600 lbs. ls about the capacity of the Press, and a greater number of pounds subject the foilow-block to foo much risk, un? less the sides or thc cotton box was increased. It would acid greatly to the value ot the Press il' the cotton box was ten inches longer. In haste, I am, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Ac.. B. W. LAWTON. P. S. I took my Press down and carried it seme tour miles to pack thc crop of a neighbor, who failed to have a "Screw" built; he was so niu;h pleased that he has determined to abaudon the "Screw" and purchase "In. gersoll's Press " B. W. L. nrncE OF KINO'S MOUNTAIN RAILROAD CoA*??Nr, I YORKVILLE, 8. C., April 16, 16T.7. ( GENTLEMEN : 1 havo just recolad your letter ot Feb? ruary 14th-upon my return to this place, alter an ab? sence of two months-and this reply may be too late for your "Descriptive Circular of Ingersoll's Cotton Press." Tbt Presa I used in packing my cotton last year worked admirably, packing, with .-a>-.; from COO to 626 lbs. With good active hands to work it, I am satisfied that from eighteen tu twenty butes might readily bc packed iu a dny. This Pr. ?s combines the advantages of lightness, and consequent portability and simplicity (kew easily man? aged b,. any one of ordinary Intelligence). Great com? pressing force, with little motive power, and "last, hut not least," it is worked entirely by baud, thus saying for the farm horses the hard labor imposed upon tuena by th* use of the ordinary "Screw."
