The Probable Departure of Louis Napoleon for the Crimea. There appears to be no longer any reason to doubt that the Emperor of (he French will proceed immediately to the Crimea. In the Constitntionel ol Monday, it is stated that his camp equipage has also been sent off, and the 1 Oth of May is confidently named in Paris as the day on w Inch he will take his departure. The abilities or Napoleon the III are about to be tried in a uew Geld. His victories have hitherto been gained in civil contests ; it remains to be seen whether he has in herited the military talents of his house. Various considerations concur to re commend the step he is about to take. His presence in the Crimea teems de sirable as a means of giving unity to the opperations ot a campaign carried on by the armies of at least four inde pendent nations. As victory will tend to consolidate the throne, he has every inducement to urge on the war with energy ; and at the same time, from all we can learn, the Emperor is too pro loundly impressed with the necessity ot not over-straining the resources of France to be led astray by success. What course the Emperor will pur sue remains perhaps to be decided by the state in which he will find affairs when he lands on the Crimea. The telegraphic accounts of the progress of ihe bombardment of Sebastopol are necessarily curt and complete. Ru mors are afloat, however, to the effect that no great progress is being made by the assailants ; that the advantages they had gained have been purchased at con siderable loss of lite, and that the defences still in the hands of the Rus sians are of the most formidable strength. If these statements are well founded, they go far to confirm the opinion we have more than onoe had occasion to express, that the Russians in the Crimea must be beaten in the field before Sebastopol can be taken. There is, at lowest calculation, five hundre pages, royal octavo volume, ot meaning in the twenty seven words that follow : "A fool in high station is like a man on the top of a mountain everything appears small to him, and he appears small to everybody. Gross Outrage Offered to Mr. Wise in Washington City. The Union, iu noticing tbe reception recently given to Mr. Wise iu Washing ton city, says : 'Mr. YV, spoke from the door of his son-in-law, Dr. Garnett, in Ninth treet, and in Ihe presence not only of a great erowd of citizens, but in the hearing of ladies end members vf his family. This fact, which would have restrained even '.ho most dissolute characters in other days, did not prevent a gang of ruffians frum making a number of attempts to insult the distinguished speaker, and to break op the meeting. It was easy to see the actors in this shameless business had bean sent upon the ground to disgrace themselves, and if possible, to silence M.Wise. They resorted to every con ceivable expedient to fulfill their in structions, but to no effect. Mr. Wise rebuked them with much dignity, and, fter shouting and groaning themselves hoarse, they fled, like guilty spirits' to their midnight haunts. Such is the ta tics of the party that assumes to reform tbe religion and morals of men.' "A more graceless set of rowdies lie v er infested the purlieoua of a great citi than tbe gang alluded to. And yet, iu tbe midst of this unprovoked and deli b erate outrage, no police officer showed bis face on thegronud. Nothing but the forbearance of the irieode of Mr. Wise pnreented a melee. There is not another city in the Union in which such a scene would have been tolerated by tbe author ities, or if by the authorities, submitted to by tbe people. But this ia a part ol tbe tactics of tin Ordtr. The officers ehosen by the majority dare not silence the 'Americana wbo disgrace America,' and if these enterprising patriots can get up conflict with peaceable citizens some new martyr like Poole may be of fered as a fit occasion for Sabbath sor row, and some new pretext furnished for continued warfare upon the public tran quility and peace." In addressings jury upon one occa sion, the celebrated Mr. Jeffrey found it necessary to make very free with the character of a military officer, who was present during the whole harangue. Upon hearing himself several times spoken of at "the soldier," the son of Mars, boiling with indignation, inter rupted the pleader '. "Don't call me sol dier, sir, I'm an officer." Mr, Jeffery immediately went on! "Well, gentlemen this officer, who is no soldier, was the sole cause of all tbe mischief that baa ccurrvd." The Fbuit.

WE invite the attention or the fublic to the' Certificates appended below, aud bespak for them that candid consideration which their honest frankness deserves. Men in such stations as many who volun tarily bear witness to the efficacy and value ef Cherry Pectoral, do not wantonly triflo with, or distort facts, nor overstate uietr con victions.

Jackson C. II., Jackson City, 0 , 20th Xot., ISM. Dr. J.C. Ayer. . . Sir The Cherry Pectoral is much Inqui red after. Several of our best Physicians Ifuve used it, three of them in their own case and always with the happiest effects. The numerous patent .medicines always before them, lead to incredulity in regard to every new remedy; and it is only after undoubted evidence of vulue iu any arlicle.that anything like a general confidence can be excited. The unrivalled excellence of this combina tion of agents, (in lheChrry Pectoral) proved beyond cavil by repeated trial under their own observation, has compelled medical men to proclaim abroad its usefulness. It is beyond all doubt the best general remedy we have fo r the Pulmonary Affections of this climate, a t the same time sedative and expectorant a rare combination of ptoperties. In hope that it will prove its own reward, I subscribe mvself. Respectfully your obt. scrvt., JAS. H. C. MILLEJ.M. D. Allegan. Mich., 10th Jan., 1853.
