Here is another which we find in the iW. Mall Oaxellc: " Measures have been taken In Paris to disperse the crowd which gathers about five o'clock in the evening on the Boulevard des I (aliens, opposite the Passage de l'Opcra, and which is known as the 'Petite Bourse,' It is remembered that similar proceedings were taken just before the war In 1859." Tho London Kraminsr prints the follow ing little story, which hints Ingeniously at the probable results of sn European war t "When I was at Eurnpa Academy the greatest bully there was Kraut. Kraut and Wtirst were cousins, two of the biggest fel. lows in the school, and generally pretty good friends,, because they funked each other. Kraut used to pitch into little Dancman and Poleson, and Wurst used mostly to whop young Adrian Dodge. One day Kraut told Worst little Dancman had, got a tremendous pie, just tho sort Kraut (iked. .But Bull a queer old fellow, Bull always stuck up for tno little 'chaps, but a quiet fellow, too; wo wished he hadn't been. Well, Bull and Frenchy (as we called him,) and even old Nleks, who was an awful bully himself they were all big fellows, too all said it was a shame, and that was why Kraut told Wust, you see, and got him to go halves in Dane man's pie. But Kraut found it so precious good he was always a jolly tuck-ln. Kraut, and he had a pie of his own, too, only he wanted more no wanted to have it all, and chisel Wurst out ofhis half. On that Wurst squared up to him like a good one, and all the little fellows caino up to -see the row. Dodge sung out, 'Go it, old Kraut.' Wurst kicked him, and then his big brother Florence ho'd grown so much last holidays that be was nearly at tall as Wurst Florence was singing and playing the rool ana tucking into tnris, out lie tared up in an instant, and came squaring at old Wurst. Bo you see Wurst was in the middle, and Kraut was showing fight on one sldo of him and Florence on the other. It didn't look altogether fair, but men every body liked Florence and thought it a sbsme about HttlerAdrian Dodge; and besides, why did he want to hare half Daneman's pio t Bull and Frenchy saw them at it and came up, and Bull sold to Frenchy, 'ir this goes on, you know, they'll all bo in a Jolly row, Wo must keep tho peace.' And then old Frencly said what I've been wonting to come to, to tell you.lt was so jolly good bo ul.l 'Ve. von keen ze pease, and I will keep ze poys.'

Billows, delivered to hti'co'ngrcgslton In New York, Sunday eyenlng, iJay 7. We make tho following extracts from, tho dis course t mi; crrr. Hariris' Inst cnloved an onnortnnltr' of studylog this 'question for ten days St the cspiiai, a propose to give you, in us Interest of national morals, the result of my cursory observations. And I begin, with saying that nobody goes to Washington with any .prejudices in its favor I ir the old adage wrro infallible, "What everybody says must prove" true," the national capital would have' an almost infamous character. It bias been the com mon ussge.of the .country,, tho familiar scan dal of the press, and the gossip ,of transient visitors to Washington, as long as I can rec ollect, to speak of it as a sink of corruption, a place of universal jobbery and ulfecckiiig ; where villainous contractors and dark-Ian. tcrncd-party conspirators, heavy gamblers, hard drinkers, and snowy and carelcBS women, gathered rpund a Congress In whh,h,-with brilliant exceptions, measures were carried and policies fixed by secret machinations and selfish bargainings. Tho Government Departments have commonly, been repre sented as poor-houses for the' friends and re lations of Congressmen where Inefficient, lazy fellows got pay for next tb no work. Washington is even now usually represented as a specially immoral community In its own fixed population a place where drunken ness, crime, disease, discomfort, and want have a marked existence and rule. This opinion, even if true, is widely inju rious, and has a tendency to lower tho gen eral character of our people; if not true, its injuriousness is wanton and without excuse. Of course there is always some foundation for such opinions. It is not to bo denied, then, that before the war the Southern States made Washington, to a considerable extent, the rendezvous of their rich, reckless young men ; nor that, In the days of national com promises. It was tho sccno of much under land political bargaining; nor that, during the war, army officers made It the placo of much carousing j nor that a large percentage of its people living in hotels, the. usual ovus of that kind of life, always exist there ; nor that it docs not have the ordinary vices, fol lies, and extravagancies of all capitals, and especially crowded and fluctuating towns. Hasty visitors, knowing only the hotel life of Washington, would mislnago tho place. Now, the last five years have given mo un usual opportunities of knowing and judging Washington as a place, and as a capital, both in its fixed residents and in its floating pop ulation; and I have no earthly reason for speaking better of it than it deserves no f resent or prospective private interest in it o warp my judgment. And I say that cither the last five years have wholly changed its character, or that its bod reputation Is chiefly unmerited. Washington has, I think, the most select, there, a certain valuable percentage of thoso they have drawn to the spot. Betirrd and accomplished army and navy officers abound Inventors, men of scienco and letters, intel ligent foreigners, and persons of fortune from the South and West, collect there. It Is tills class of fixed residents'' who1 hare built up the churches of Washington, which are singuiarry numerous' ana uncommonly Well attended. For1 Washington 'is a con spicuously church-going.' place, and on the whole even superstitions in its .ecclesiastical tendencies. 'The ..Oaluolic,,. the Protestant Episcopal, the Presbyterian, the Methodist, churches flourish,, with peculiar vitality there; and the natives and fixed residents seem to be a quiet, d&brous. Intelligent, 'moral and religious people, comparing favorably with any other community in the country. ITIIBCLRRKS. . There aro several thousand clerks con nected with the Departments probably not jess than six thousand, as there are two thousand five hundred In the Treasury alone. This very important body of men, Of all aires, some with but most without families. Is a Very different class of persons from what It is commonly supp6sed to be. A finer set of men, judging by their heads and expres sion of countenance, it would be difficult to collect It is composed of that portion of our American population bfei to trade and commerce, or the professions, which pos sesses too nttie scir-reiianco ana rorwardness to lead off successfully in business of their own men broken down or unsuccessful onlv From excess of sensibility, or from having more reflection than executive facultv. A general intellectuality, a half ministerial air, characterizes some hundreds of these men. They are scrimped In their moans, if they havo families; all tied to business from 9 a. in. to 4 p. in., and always with quite. as mach as thev can do in office hours, - The regulations of all the Departments are rigid and exact In tho Treasury, the ad mirable system of methods, originated by the great rama or Alexander Hamilton, equally wonderful for irraao and accuracy, in man agement of principles and of particulars, still prevails, ana, it Is said, admits of no improve ment, while allowing Indefinite extension. he activity ortne Departments, me amount f labor and caro borne bv the beads' of bu reaus and their clerks, is little known to dis tant observers, and should save them from the suspicion of being mere pensioners upon tho public bountv. The passion for nolitical ilerkship in America, so strange to enter prising anu scii-rcnum men, is uue.io me lact that tho hot, competitive life of pur country docs not suit all temperaments: and govern ment clerkships are about -tho tooit inde pendent positions wmen men witn lew wants, little enterprise, and a great shrinking from responsibility can find, what Charles Lamb abroad, and Halleck and 8 Prague at home corotod and accented ncrmunent clerk ships, that thev mlirht nursue literature and ooetrv in meir leisure Hours, free irom busi .........' i - - ness responsibilities still draws hundreds of Americans out pi me proiessions anu away from commerce Into the calm retreats of the Government Departments; and this class of ip.en are a very valuable element of the float- ng population of w aseiugton, anu a much leauier anu more uiiemgeut ctnaa-uian orut- ary clerks In commercial cities.

His genuine democracy put hit reasons for this course whollvbevond the suspicion of pride of place. The Exetutive and his chief adviser are the proud custodians of the Constitution, and seem determined to restore what they call the normal functions of all the States, and to revive the old national life. They assume that the war la oven, the rebellion subdued ; they pronounce the courts open, the noat office, re-eitahliahed. and no nin. dronce existing to the full representation of1 an me lato rebel rJtatcs Texas excepted into the Senate and House, They insist that the Union has never been dissolved, the rebel States never out of the Union, and of course ther cannot come In. because thev are nrmefy In. The disorder in the States, they say, bos been functional, not organic. The Union hasadmiiiiiteid a.cosUy medi cine, oas purgcu on ine functional disease, and the States hare onlv to resume all their rights and duties, and claim all their priv lieges! The President is characteristically an intense lover or the Union. He hated and opposed the rebellion chiefly as an as sault upon the Union, and his sole anxiety seems to be to make and keep the Union whole. Slavery does not seem to have been in his eye a great evil in any other sense than as it endangered the Union. Mr. Lin coln professed In all his earlier speeches, and especially in his letter to Mr. Ureelcy, the eauio uucirmv. lucwarwas io pn aown the rebellion, and had no other purpose. If slavery supported the rebellion, it must go down with the wespons and other munitions of war belonging to the public enemy but not at all as the end, simply as a means to the end the restoration of order and the suppression of insurrection. TUB SECRETARY Or STATE. Thts senso of the self-healinir sndself-rectifv- Ing tendencies of our national life and charac ter, is doubtless at the bottom of tho clastic faith ofthe SecrcturypfStatc who four years ago drew his notes payable at ninety days for the restoration of peace and union, has con fidents renewed them eterv nitietv davs linco, and utters them with bolder confidence now than ever. The most philosophical of our statesmen, the American De Tocqueville, he looks into the natural and universal causes of political events, and bases his optimism upon human nature. He agrees with De locqueville, too, In a not very lofty view of human nature, and is content with something far short ofthe ideal in "this wicked world' A sincere patriot, a self-relying statesman, imperturbable under abuse and suspicion, acting quite ns much In reference to foreign as to domestio judgment s, and living habitu ally in tho forum of all nations, Mr.Seward has the broadest grasp and the most intelligent appreciation of publio affairs of all living Americans. The world has mistaken him for an ideologist and an ultralst I wish ho were more of both. Hehos the philosopher and the politician in equal proportions in his com position but less of the saire and tho saint than some of the moralists and patriots of the country might desire. Practical sagacity ana uipiomatic aarouness are united in mm with breadth of reason and wealth of knowl edge and experience. We miss a little moral height of view and elevatlon-of spirit But what can 'exaggerate the majestic twrrlce hit genius, so lf-contrbl,and address have rendered the country In its foreign relations t rirrn in rarsipuT jonisox. On the whole, my visit to Washington strengthened my confidence and relieved my worst fears, I bad begun to think, the days of 16S1 in France might be repeated here, when the President of the French and the National Assembly' occupied very much the same relation to each other which Mr. John son has borne' to Congress, and when it was for a' time uncertain whether the Assembly would arrest the President or the President the Assembly. The crime was left you re member, for bira. It seemed not impossible that a similar roup d'etat might happen here. But that fear was based upon the suspicion that the President was a bad. a weak, a ca pricious man, whose body and spirit were both intoxicated with hit elevation to power, and who, having disappointed and betrayed his party, wot capable Of any worse thing. I rejoice in being able to say that abundant opportunities were given me to dissipate that fear; tbat I believe nothing of the indecent rumors toucbintr the President's insobriety i tbat I think him a very able, a very earnest. ana a very patriotic man, nonesi in nit opin ions and prejudices.

Ad ams stepped out the;door, muttering; Hop per followed, and again called Adams a liar; Adams said Hopper lied; Hopper struck at Adams with his fiat; Adams drew his knife; Hopper jumped Inside the door, tripped and fell on his back, with his body in the house and his head toward the door, and with his hands on the floor and his head ru!ed about two feet; he was in-the act of getting up, when Adams stabbed him in the throat, ser. erlng tho carotid artery, the blood spirting across tho room: Adams rushed oat of the door and gate and up tho creckj Hopper sprung to iiis feet, seized his gun, went to the door, levelling the gun at his fleeing an tagonist Mrs. Hopper caught the gun ex claiming, " Hopper, you aro dying!"

Unlucki ly, however, for themselves and the public, they took to advancing money in Immense kumi to finance companies and similar bodies pa securities which could not possibly ba converted into money for many months, per Jfops even for yean. "In order to enable them to do this, largo numbers of bankers and other persons depos ited with them their surplus cuh,wh!ch could be colled in either on demand or at very short notice, and we have reason to believe that when they stopped payment their position might have been represented not very incor rectly by the following figures. They had a capital of 1,000,000. They had deposits which were unsecured, and for which, accord., Ingly, they were immediately liable, of 3,- puu.uuti. iney naa also e,uuv,uuu or de- fosits for which the depositors held securi ies. They had less than half a million of approved bills or other securities in their hands, on which money could be advanced by any prudent-company. What their claims upon their own debtors were, wo do not pre. tend to know. The shares of the company, at every one knowt, were at 10 premium not long since, but by some of those fluctuations and it may be by some of thoso ingenious maneuvret which flourish on the Stock Ex change, they began to fall some time ago. When the fall had once set in it had a tend ency to Increase, as the sharjhaWen did not understand it, and did understand the im mense liabilities which they had incurred. As the shares fell, the depositors 'with the house became alarmed and withdrew their balances, and Inasmuch as tho company had locked up all their fundi in securities which were lor practical purposcsanconvcruDie, me result was their stoppage." Their application to the Bank of England foiled, of course, for the securities they were able to offer amounted to less than a half a million, while their immediate liabilities were men times as much. In short they arrived at the natural end of their course oT doing business, which was to lend for lonir terms and at on enormous Interest money which they had borrowed from ethers for short terms and at lower interest Ho long at tno loons for short terms were forthcoming, they, no doubt, made great profits, but as soon at iney were wimurawn, rum wot inevitable.
