have lost all Lis preaence of mind all his morel cou

wife for man of the facilities of escape. The fact
is, the King has not fallen with dignity ; and the very ;
circumstances of his retreat are bo much calculatrd
to lower him in the opinion of the French, that they
alone would contribute to cut off his return to power.

The French Revolution. It is with the preat
est pleasure that we announce the safe arrival of the
last and most illustrious instalment of the "royal fu
gitives" on these shores. For a whole week the ex
Kinj of the French, after playlnj for eighteen years
the most conspicuous part on the most conspicuous
stage of European aöairs, had totally disappeared
from the scene. His place could nowhere be found ;
and, shocking as all would have felt it, it was at least
as probable a conjecture as any other, that his Majes
ty hnl perished in the channel. The Express steam
er krou2.1t them yesterday morning to Newhaven,
where they had to wait for some hours till the state
of the tide should enable them to enter tha harbor.
At last they landed, and were glad to receive a very
hearty welcome to tho well-known fehore. For the
rest, we must refer to the particulars which we have
been enabled to supply, and to which the rank, the
misfortunes, and, it must be added, the errors of the
distinguished süßerer will impart so peculiar an in
terest. It may be safely said, there is nothing in history
nothing, at least, in the examples which most readily
occur to the mind that at all comes near the tre
mendous suddenness of the present royal reverse.
This day fortnight, Louis Phillippe was the most
prosperous, the most powerful, and accounted the
ablest sovereign in the world. If the reader will just
think of it, he will find that thh wonderful man had
attained the acme of success, consideration, and
power. It is a work of time to enumerate the many
circumstances of his splendid condition. His numer
ous, haitddome, and dutiful children ; the brilliant al
liances one of them recently concluded which
brought into one family interest the vast region from
Antwerp to Cadiz ; the prospect of an event which
would probably make his grandchild the sovereign,
his sun the regent of Spain ; the great cross and draw
back of his reign just removed, Algeria pacified af
ter eighteen years war ; his immense private for
tune ; his eleven or twelve palaces, unequalled for
situation and magnificence, on all of which he had
recently spent immense sums of money ; his splendid
army of four hundred thousand men, in the highest
discipline and equipment ; a minister of unequalled
energy and genius, who had found out t last the se
cret of France; a metropolis fortified and armed to
the teeth against all the world ; the favorable advan
ces recently made by those powers who had previous
ly looked down on the royal parrmu ; the well-balanced
state of his forcis" relations, and the firmly-
grasped reins of the political car ; all these gifts of:
fortune, and more, if we had time to go on with the
list, wera heaped on one man in such profusion as r
really t pall the imagination. What crowned it all, '
wa, that Louis I'hiilippe was allowed the entire ere-1
dit of his U' cess. It was all the work of his own
han-l. He might stand like the ancient king on the J
walls and twert which he had drawn round his city,
and contemplate the perfect work of beauty and policy
which himself hud mad'. The balance of Europe,
the cau-es of peoples and kings, the issues of peace
and of w ar, were in his hands. If thero uns an j
a mil ri illiquid in thi garden of roses and delights, ;
twenty impregnable forts and a hundred th"usand
armed men were no insignificant watch upon & tew ,
disorderly subjects. Solon himself would hardly have!

What we have described was a sober and Bolid re
ality. What we now come to, reads like the prepos
terous incidents of a nursery tale. A mob of arti
sans, boys, and some women, pours through the streets
of Paris. Eighty thousand infantry, cavalry, and ar
tillery are dumbfounded and stultified ! In a few
minutes, an elderly couple are 6een bustling away
from the hubbub; they are thrust into a hack-cab,
and driven out of the way. The mob rushes into the
Senate, and proclaims a republican government
which exists, which is ruling the nation with great
energy and judgment, and is already communicating
with the representatives of foreign powers. But let
us follow the princes. We Bay it w ithout intending
any disrespect, and only as relating the simple truth
of the affair. No family of Irish trampers was ever
so summarily bundled out of the way, as this illus
trious group. The Queen, we are told, had run back
to a bureau for some silver; but it seems it was not
enough, as a hat was sent round for the royal couple
at St. Cloud, and a small sum clubbed by the national
guard. At Dreux, they were left with a live-franc
piece between them. Flying "when none pursuelh"
they get to Louis Phillippe's once celebrated chateau
at Eu, which they are afraid to enter. So there they
disappear into space. They were to be at Eu, and
for a week that is all that we knew of them. Mean
while, the rest Lad dropped in, one by one. They
come like foreign birds dashed by a storm against
a light-house. The Duke da Nemours and certain
Saxe Coburgs come one day; knowing nothing of the
ret. They parted in the crod. A Spanish Infanta,
for whose hand all the world was competing only the
year before last, scrombled another way, and through
b)e-roads and back-doors; and strange event is
likely to give Spain an Englieh-born sovereign, un
der Victoria's kindly auspices. No sooner, however,
have the fugitives found a friendly asylum, than they
are obliged to seek another roof. Other princes and
princesses turn up here and there. A lady-in-waiting
rejoins her mistress. A cabinet miuister is
found. The children and governess of another arrive.
The renamlres and reunions tue strange enough. A
prince of the blood and an ex-prefect meet in disguise
and do not know one another. Very late a youthful
heir to the crown of France, and who had been actu
ally acknowledged as reigning king by the deputies,
is disco veied at a channel island with his mother and
brother. The two children had been almost lost in
the mob on leaving the chamber, had been got some
how to Eu, with their mother, wearied and bearing
muddy marks of rough travel. Thonce, by heavy
bribing, they had procured a passage to the first Brit
ish rock. Thus are they driven and scattered by the
besom of revolution. 1 hey arrive penniless, w ithout
a change of raiment, dejected and bewildered, telling
one another their stones of many strange adventure.
having each come a ditftvent journey, though startiug
from one point, and almost at one hour.
After many cUya suspense, the King and Queen
are heard of, on some ptivate information, on the
coaxt of Normandy, where they had been "on the
run from house to house, and content with humble
hospitality, the King, we are tu'd, in stranje dis
guises, fiiey still have a email retinue. These half
dozDn invaders, without either arms or baggage, do
not find it so ea-y to cross the channel. Stationing
themselves at H"iifiVur, within twenty miles sail of
Havre, they watch opportunity and the weather,
whi.-h la.-it delays) their passage several days. At
1-ngth, they get intJ a British steamer. Arrived at
N'-W.iaveii. after a rough passage, they encounter
fre.s i delays, as .f to prove that England is not easily
.rurpr,frd. Loui i'hiilippe, who was to bridge the
British Hellespont, crosses it with foreign aid, and
land in a pea-jacket borrowed from the English cap
tain ; he finds himself at homo; the associations and
the friend of his former exile greet him ; a genera
tion passes like a dream ; and the aged monarch finds
himself the Duke of Orleans, the banished son of old
' Egalite again. Would that all could be forgotten !
lut, if what is said be true, some recollections did
occur of an accusing character. The frequent ex
clamation, "Like Charles X," we are told, betrared
the current of his though'!. "We are verily guilty
concerning our brother; therefore is this distMss
errme upou ua." At the very moment the misr-1 ig
King appears at one port, his lost minister is heard of
at another. Uuizot is now in London. His day f t
active life is over ; he is again th philosopher and
historian; and, doubtless, like the Roman orator, will
forthwith occupy bis political retirement with studies
far more suited to his genius, and more conducive to
Lis reputation, than the government of States.
England's path is clear. She is the refuge of ex
iles, and opens her shores to the unfortunate'ef everv
land or party. She would at once preclude herself
iron) oueriag mis Hospitality, and tear Europe with
out a refuge, if the involved herself in the ruined
fv.ci fiprl nri'npi ri !i"f r"val vis tors. She ran
oiiiy receive iheia a exiiec, not ns prcieinlcrs. It
may be with pome violence to ft-eling, but it is never
theless necessary to lot it be clearly understood by
those differences within the range of courtly etiquette,
that while the persons of the unfortunate are pitied
and ri'gpccti'd, and their former rank remembered,
they -nil posses no higher character than what their
own nation chooses to allow.
From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Rational Character.
The different revolutions In France, from 1739 to
the present dor, and the popular disturbances and go
vernmental changes if England during the same pe
riod, afford important lessons upon the influences
which form national character. The revolution of
1769 f )und France divided into two classes, the op
pressors and the oppressed. The first were the royal
family, the nobility and the clergy, who owned nearly
all the land, and were exempt from taxation. The
nobility were frivolous, licentious and arrogant ; the
clergy little or no better. The Church, by its mie
chcvious character as a political institution, and by
the depraved manners of its higher clergy, had roused
a host of talent, which, confounding tho institution
and its professors with Christianity, wrote in support
of infidelity; and the nobility and clergy adopted
these doctrines as excuses for their own depravities.
The people, consisting of the agricultural peasantry,
the artisans, people in trade, paid all the taxes, were
generally destitute of education, and were treated
contemptuously by the nobility. In this "condition of
the public mind, the revolution of 17S9 broke out like
a hurricane. At first np;ea ranee were promising.
Uut the nobility and clergy abandoning the country,
and bad men becoming popular leaders, the people,
suddenly let loose from the tyranny of ages, proceeded
to settle a long account of vengeance, and filled their
country with crime and blood. The military t'espot
ism of Napoleon followed. But it was a despotism of
genius and high aspiration, producing order, law, in
dustry, education, improvement, progress. The res
toration of the Bourbons in 1814 found the French a
very different, a far superior people to the Freuch of
1789. The period following to the revolution of
1S3U was a period of struggle between two kings oi
despotic temper, trying to pervert a constitutional
monarchy to despotism, and a people struggling to
maintain their rights by law. Hence it was & period
of progress in education, of development in ideas and
principles. At length the people triumphed in 1830,
in establishing a new and more limited monarchy.
Under this, for 19 years, a king, false to all his pro
mises, a fraudulent, unscrupulous money jobber, was
intent on establishing his dynasty at home, extending
it to other countries, and enriching its various mem
bers ; and for this purpose he governed by corruption,
and strove to convert the whole population into a few
capitalists and a multitude of paupers. In opposition
to this system, men of genius and learning wrote and
declaimed, expounding principles, explaining ideas,
teaching the importance of knowledge and order as
essential to liberty, the necessity of due self-government
for the maintenance of political freedom, the
evils of government not founded on popular will, the
necessity of education for the maintenance of rights
and the administration of political power, and the su
periority of peaceful and gradual over 6udden and
violent changes in governmental systems. Hence this
period was, more eminently than the one preceding, a
period of progress, of development in ideas and prin
ciples. The revolution of 1789 found the laboring
population of France on ignorant, vindictive, fero
cious mob. That of 1830 found them an orderly,
confiding, and somewhat enlightened people, knowing
what they wanted and how to obtain it. but not how
to secure and keep it. That of 1818 finds them an
orderly, enlightened, speculative, aspiring, honorable,
generous, devoted people, understanding their rights
and their wrongs, intent on recovering the former by
their virtues, and scorning to avenge the latter by
any unworthy behaviour.
In all these changes, we see the operation of two
leading causes; the influence of Napoleon, exerted
through his rr.ilitary system, and the influence of the
United States, exerted through their example, and
tjirough the enlightened, philosphical, aspiring direc
tors of the French press, periodical and occasional.
The fundamental principle inspired by Napoleon was
honor, sense of personal dignity. He found the French
people in anarchy, just broke loose from demoralizing
slavery. lie led tlicm to victory in the field and im
provement every where, by inspiring them with indi
vidual pride of character, lie made them democrats
through an ennobling, elevating despotism. The lead
ing sentiment of his despotism was, " The Emperor
is your leader, not your master ; and you are t.n wor
thy to follow him, unless you are men." To the high
elements of character thus developed by Napoleon,
diJ the French authors appeal, explaining rights, ex
pounding the principles on which ti.ey were founded,
and pointing to the United States as a practical illus
tration of their operation upon human character and
happiness.
The result is the revolution of 1843; a revolution
which, thus far, has never been exceeded by anv,
never equalled excepting by our own, in sublimity of
character. I he principal actors in this revolution
were the laboring population of Paris; a people op
pressed with taxation to support a splendid and cor
rupt government, and consequently doomed to priva
tion. Yet we see among them no revenge, no cruelty,
iio depredation, no thirsting for the blood of their ty
rants, no criminal conversion or wanton destruction
of property. In the first moments of excitement pro
duced by the w anton murder of their friends and rela
tives, in the streets, by the minions of despotism,
they demolish some of royalty's costly trappings in
some of the royal residences. But with these few
exceptions, their behaviour was noble, exemplary,
sublime. When starving mechanics can work fur
twenty-four hours without food, in packing and secur
ing the Queen's jewelry and plate and wardrobe for
herself, and Ehool down thieves in the midst of their
depredations for thus disgracing the cause of liberty,
and converting a struggle for rights into an opportu
nity for crime, we have no fears about the result of
their struggle. Such incidents show a widely d.ffused
sense of personal dignity, a high and ludy apprecia
tion of right, whcli leave us in no doubt about their
fitness for republicanism. None but a people enlight
ened, aspirin?, and habitually virtuous, would have
acted thus. They did not, like the mobs of London,
demolish lamps and shop-windows without end or ob
ject, merely through love of wanton destruction. Yet
tyrants and their servile advocates stigmatize this
people as a mob, a rabble !

The Patentees of Government. We are so pro
foundly convinced that no mil istry can survive for a
week unless it is compounded of the nobility, that we
have the most serious alarms for the duration of the
Provisional (iovernment at Paris. Why, there is not
a single lord amongst them ! It is hue that the mem
bers are all men of genius, every one of whom has
distinguished himself, more or less, by Iiis talents
but what has that to do with government! No!
Give us the Red Book before all other bioks, be they
histories, or the best works on political economy, or
the cleverest book you like. Whnt is a man like
Lamartine to a Marquis! How can a person like
Louis Blanc, much less the editor of a newspaper,
know as much about statesmanship as an Earl, or a
Viscount, or even a Right Honorable ! No; the pro
bability is absurd The race of statesmen are all born
with coronets. It is a breed of itself. Toe branches
of government, to flourish, must bu covered with
strawberry leaves. For a country to bo happy, to be
free from debt, to be prosperous, the ministers that
guide it must be selected on the golden rule of No
bility before Ability."
The preference reads rather absurd, but the thing
has been proved so often in England, that the justice
of it must be true; and are we not particularly hap
py! Look to the Income-Tax. Are wu not free from
debt ! Only refer to the National Debt. Are we not
prosperous 1 But it is useless solving these questions
when we have a Whig Ministry. The Genius of
Statesmanship abides only in Heralds' College.

The truth is, that the industrious classes of France
are hungry. They do not for their utmost toil get
enough fiirly to keep the wolf from the door. The
question is, how they and their little ones shall not
starve. There is a soulless sort of people, es nume
rous perhaps in this as in any country which' God
has created, who do not regard this question as of any
tnomeut.
They see nothing but danger, calamity and nun in
the French Revolution. They look into the future
like so many solemn ravens and croak.
Poor flinty gizzards! Ihe hunger and hopeless
ness of millions and the starvation of thousands is
very tolerable to them. But O don't endanger pro
perty ! Don't reduce the price of storks ! Don't
carry your radicalism into practice, ihe Lhrono-
typc was the only Boston paper which announced the
news of the fall of Louis Phillippe as "glorious" or
showed any signs of confidence or enthusiastic sym
pathy in the manifestations which came to us by the
former arrival. We verily believe that there are
people in Boston, and pretty great prople in their own
estimation, who sympathise much more with tho feel
ings of the Emperor of Austria on this occasion than
with those of regenerated trance. by, instead of
hailing the glorious news of the Caledonia with out-
bursting joy and letting their joy ooze through their
editorial ink, must of our city editors copied as their
own the wretched, soulless, cowardly comments of the
European Times, a paper which, for its part in this
matter, deserves rather to be burnt by the hangman
than to be circulated among freemen.
The Trublcm which cried from the ilepths of un
speakable human agony to the muckworm Louis
Phillippe fur solution was, How shall the masses find
remunerating employment! All he did was to point
a hundred thousand bayonets at the throats of the
sufferers. He was busy marrying off his progeny
and increasing his money.
The same problem has stared the provisional gov
ernment in the face, and they have faced it like men.
They have shown their determination to grapple with
it as men best can. They are beginning to do some
thing. The light which is in the world on this great
social problem they earnestly rive heed to.
Tho system of Fourier Charles Fourier who is
considerably revilved and ridiculed by conceited ig-
norance here and everywhere is the only system with
a soul and an idea in it, which has never been tried
in this world. Communism was tried and failed long
ago. And other drauis have failed. But Fourier
ism which professes to be founded on great funda'
mental principles of our nature, as a theory has taken
a deep hold in France. It has an able organ in Paris
in the Democratic Pacijlque, an organ which hns cost
the Guizot ministry more trouble and anxiety of late
than all tho more violent arid radical papers put
together. The great ideas of this paper everywhere
appear as sails, oars, and rudder to this revolution
Unconsciously to most of themselves probably, the
leading minds of the revolution have imbibed its spirit
and tone, and among all the Paris papers this seems
to be the onlv one which has held its course straight
forward.
We copy from its columns the following paragraphs
which are extremely significant:
'Socialist .Movement of the Pkess. The great
events of the last ten diys have dissipated almost
every where the prejudice .against social doctrines
The sentiment of universal brotherhood is now the
rallying point of all generous hearts and enlightened
intellects. Ihe journals of Pans and the depart
incnts, without except ion, have come upon our track ;
they have come to understand that the present ques
tion is not a political but asocial one; they have
freely unfurled the socialist banner against which
most of them were just now fighting, und which the
rest accepted only with reserve
Hence it would be impossible for us to give to-day
a list ot the reproductions of the Democratic l'actfi
que. The placard entitled "Pkayeks of the Teople
Reform for all" has been copied by all the pn
vinciul and foreign presses.
Every day, since the 22J of February, we have
been unable to open any journal without finding in it
some of our articles. The li'ht is created; social
doctrines which were disdained as Utopian are now
recognized as ot great value, i lie seed wiucu we
have been for seventeen years sowing, having suffi
cicntly germinated in the heart, every where sprouts
above the surface, and every where finds laborers
ready to hasten its growth."
The Piovisional Government, as we have already
seen, has taken very important steps towards carry
ing out lhee social ideas, and they are now every
where in discussion, as the means of solving the
great problem of humanity.
An example of the faith that is put in these doc
trines is found in the following :
"The Northern Railway Company," says the cor
respondent of the Daily News, ' has announced its
purpose of making all individuals of every rank and
class in its employment, from tho president of the
company and the engineer-iu-chief, to the humblest
station man, stoker, and plate-layer, virtual partners
in the emerpise, and participators in its profits. Pri
vate establishments are one by one following a like
course. As an example of this spirit of commercial
communism, 1 will give you here an announcement
which appears at the head of the leading column of
the journal La Presse, this morning. I give it in
full, verbatim et literatim ; not because of its own in
terest or importance, but as affording a capital fain-
pie of the principles which aro fermenting throughout
the entire industrial system of this great country :
"Council of Proprietors of La Presse. Meet
ing of March ö. M. de Beville, president; M.
ft... I f i . wi.
.uauoy, secretary; iu. uoutzen, auuitor. The pro
prietors ot the I'resse, called together by M. Emile
de Girardin (one of them), agree unanimously to the
principles hereafter stated, already adopted by the
company ot the INortliern Hallway Company : Asso
ciation of capital and labor division of profits.
II ä- I . aa .
uenceiorwara, in every muusiriai enterprise, all the
salaries of laborers, workmen, foremen, clerks, engi
nuers, directors, and managers, shall be made a com
mon fund with the capitalists, with reference to tho
labor of ouo and tho capital of the others. The pro
fus remaining, after the payment of labor, and divi
dends on capital, shall be divided between all, accord
ing to the amount of salary or dividend of each. In
consequence they decide that the division of the pro
ceeds of the Presse shall be made as follows: 1.
Payment of salaries. 2. Interest of capital at 5 per
cent., according to the avprage profits of the Presse,
from the 1st August, 1339, the diy of its purchase,
comprising therein its sinking fund. 2. Division of the
profits in the proportion of capital in money to capital
in labor represented by the amount of salaries. This
word 'salaries,' must have some more noble import.
The proprietors of the Presse, therefore, extend it,
without distinction, to editors, clerks, compositors,
correctors, printers, distributors, and folders. The
accounts of the participation shall commence from
January 1, 1813. A commission composed of three
members has been charged with the drawing up the
legal agreement. The irduction of tho price of sub
scription from 44f. to 2lf. per year (Jifforence 20f.)
from 52f. (average) for the department to 3Gf. per
year (difference 16T.). is approved, for all the sub
scriptions made after this day. All the proprietors of
the f resse giving tneir consent severally."
A Frophesv. The New York Courier des Etats
Unis tell us a strange story without vouching for the
truth of it, to the effect that a now deceased gentle
man, v. ho participated in the rejoicings in New York
for the French revolution in 1830, left a scaled pack
age, which hns just now been opened. On the inte
rior of the wrapper was written ; "To serve on occa
sion of ihe next revolution in France, which will take
place about IS 17," It would have been difficult to
make a more just prediction.

power, and were extinguished by a single line from

The large class of wine-growers have been on the
point of insurrection for years, because o. the injur)
done to their interests by the policy of the govern
ment. Every clnss of citizens has felt the iron wear
ing into the bone. The lourgeoise, or middle class,
have seen clearly, in the expose of the corruptions
that led to the suicide of the late minister M. Teste,
the incontrovertible fact that the government was one
of utter corruption, exorting money from the unrep
resented many, to pay government adherents. AH
these classes recognise the fact that the electoral col
leges, composed of 200,l00 out of 30,000.000 of
people, form the only aristocratic body in the coun
try ; and that a republic is simply to enlarge the
number of voters from 200,000 to 3,000,000, and to
substitute an dec t ice head for an hereditary one.
This change there is none to resist. Tho people, the
national guard, and the troops of the line, are one.
The Count de Paris and Guizot are two ; but these
were taken by surprise, as were the ambassadors of
all the crowned heads; and the latter have nothing to
Bay, until they get instructions from their astonished
governments tich and all of which will, by this
time, have learned that it is safest to let France man
age her government in her own way. There have
been fifteen ministers since 1330, and these fifteen
governments have been different combinations of half
a dozen men. Soult was in five, alternately with
and in opposition to Guizot, who was seven times in
office. Thiers was in six different ministries. Ville
main, Martin, Duchatel, Mole, Teste, and one or Iwo
others, formed the whole in various combinations.
Each one acted with and against all the others in
turn alt corrupt to the core. Marshal Soult was
turned out of the fifth ministry for pilfering and mal
feasnnce in office, yet took ollice again when the mat
ter was blown over ; and the corruptions of subsequent
ministers are well known. Each of thei-e ministers
has adherents, however, because each while in office
disposed of a great number of places. Thiers, for
instance, bt slowed 60,000 otSces while himself in
power. Thus there arc among the corrupt electors,
Moleists, Thiernists, Guizotists, &.c. ; but the cold eye
of the people is upon them all. These are all little
factions ; but there is, properly speaking, but one
party in France, and that embraces the notion it is
the liberal party, faithful to the revolution of 179,
to the constituent assembly of 1791. They disavow
ed the excesses of the convention, opposed the des
potism of Napoleon, contended for liberty under the
restoration, were deceived and taught wisdom by the
revolution of July, and are now in power in their own
right. This party, it may not be doubted, will coolly
and methodically, firmly and peacefully, organize a
republican government; and, while past abuses are
swept away, the commercial policy of France will be
restored to a basis that will double her intercourse
with the United States. It is not to be supposed that
a republican government will repudiate the debt, be
cause, by so doing, they will alienate the stockhold
ers (who in France are veiy numerous) from the
cause, and throw ihem into the arms of the royalists,
out of which to form a party. It is, however, very
certain that the right of suffrage cannot be extended
in France, without involving a similar movement in
England. If the 800,000 voters in Great Britain are
but doubled, in the present temper of the nation, the
national debt may be considered among the things
that were. A teiiJency to such a result will produce
a migration of capital to the United Slates, of which
the recent virgin subscription of the Rothschilds to a
United Slates loan will be but the precursor.

laise." In tl
e garrison oi öirasDiinj was a yuuiijr
i o i
artillery otlicer named Roujjet de Lisle, a native of
Louis 1c Saulmer, in the Jura. He had a great taste
for music and poetry, and often entertained hid com
rades during their long and tedious hours in garrison.
Sought after for his musical and poetical talent, he
was a frequent and familiar guest at the house of one
Dietrich, an. Alnatian patriot, mayor of Strasburg.
The winter of 1732 was a period of great scarcity at
Strasburg. The house of Dietrich was poor, his table
was frugal, but a seat was always open to Rouget de
Lisle. One day when there was nothing1 but bread
and some ulice of smoked ham on the table, Dietrich
regarding the young otlicer, said to him, with a sad
serenity, "Abundance fails at our board ; but what
matters that if enthusiasm fails not at our civic fete,
nr courage in tlio hearts of our soldiers! 1 have
still a last bo.tle of wine in my cellar. Bring it,
said he to one of his daughters, "and let us drink
France and Liberty. . Strasburg should soon have its
patriotic solemnity. De Lisle must draw . from these
last drops one of those hymns which raise tbe soul of
tl:e txrople.
The wine was brought and drank, after which the
officer departed. The njght was cold. De Lisle was
thoughtful. His heart was moved, his head heated.
lie returned staggering to his solitary room and
slowly sought inspiration, sometimes iu the fervor
ot his citizen soul, and anon on the key of his in
etrument, coinposing.now the air before the words,
and then the words before the air. He sang all and
wrote nothing, and at last exhausted, fell asleep with
his head resting on hi instrument, and awoke not
till daybreak. The music of the night returned to lis
mind like Hie impression of a dream. He wrote it,
and ran to Dietrich, whom he found in the garden
digging winter lettuces.
llx? wife nnn daughter of the old man were not
up. Dietrich awoke them and called in some friends,
all as patriotic as himself for music, and able toexe
cute the composition of De Lisle. At the first stanzas
cheeks grew pale at the second tears flowed and at
the last delirium of enthusiasm burst fjrth. The
wife of Dietrich, hii daughters, himself, and the
officer, threw themselves, crying, into each other's
arms. The hymn of the country was found. Exe
oiled some days afterwards in Strasburg, the new
song flew from city to city, and was played by all the
popular orchestras. Marseilles adopted it to be tsung
at the commencement of the sittings of its clubs, and
Ui iuarseillaiss spread it through. ranee, singing it
along the public roads. From this came the name of
"Marseillaise."
St. Helena the Second. The Napoleon of Teace
has worked out an resemblance to Ins namesake. He
now only wants a St. Helena, which wo hope he will
find at Claremonl, where, upon his two millions in
the British Funds, he will be enabled to rough it qui
etly for the remainder of his days.
THE LOST GAME.
At cards a sly nd an old man played
Willi a naii n across the sea,
And oaths were taken, and bets were made
A to whose the game should be.
They played so long, and they played so well,
It was difficult to scan
If the sly old man should tbe people " sell,"
Gr the people the sly oi l man.
The people were " flush" of " clubs" and - spades,"
And played a if in despair ;
And "diamonds" be had, in all their grade,
Uut never a " heart" was there.
The last " heat" came of the game I sing,
And Ihe people played pele mele ;
But the old man loit, tho' he played the king,"
For he played the " knave" as well.

Opinions of llio Pres.
Epilepsv. This disease is considered by all to be the most dreadful
that ever afflicted the human race, aa its tendency is to insanity, mad
ness and death. With such fearful results aa these, w bo, among Us
unhappy etil jeets does not shudder. Tbe most skilful physicians of
Europe, as well as those of our own country, have pronounced Epilep
ay (or falling sickness as it may be termed) incurable. We are happy
however, to state lo out readers that Drs. Ivinsfc Hart of this city, by
king and tedious research, have discovered tl' primary cause of Ilm
dreadful disease, and also its remedy a remedy which in most cases
will in a very short lime effect a permanent cure. We speak thus poa
itive, because we have within the last few weeks seen quite a number
of persons who have been cured by tlieir remedy ; one of w hicu is a
man of unquestionable veracity, who stated to us that be had been af
flicted with epilepsy in its worst Uwrn tat nearly 24 years, and bad from
time to lime employed the het n-edical talent lo be iaind, and all lo
no purpose, until be placed himself under the treatment of Drs. Ivans
k. Hait, which was but a few weeks since, and now, says he,"l
thank Sod. 1 feel that I am a well man. 1 also feel R my duty to pro
claim it lo the ends of Ihe earth, that those similarly afflicted, may find
tetief."
We quote the language used by some that are now ander treatment,
and others who have been cured. One says. 'l have suffered beyond
sir powers of description, but now I rejoice in the prospect of soon be
ing fully restored, as my health of Inle bas much improved." Another
who ia an eminent lawyer and well known in this cay, anys, My son
has been afflicted for years w ith epilepsy, l ot ia now enjoying good
health from the Vegetable Extract, lis fame, says he, should and
ought to be sounded lo the ends id the earth." Another says, "Lan
guage ! entirely inadequate tn express my grat'ttide to Messrs. Ivans
4. Hart for having been the means under the hlessinff of Gnd.nfrestnr
ing me to the enjoyment of good health alter having been alUnied with
epilepsy in its worst firms tor 11 ore than '23 years, and my morning
and evening o'datkma of praise and thanksgiving shall continue tn as
cend In that God wbohasafllicted. but to make ate whole." We dcsibt

The following extract is from the "Farmer's and Emigrant's
Hand Book," a valuable work of about five hundred pages lecent
ly published by Messrs. Apploton t Co. New York. In rhaptef
, pae UM, tlm author, speaking of the Fever and Ague, remarks :
"There is a valuable medicine told in most of the Western
eititts, which we can conscientiously recommend tor Fever and
Ague, sod other bilious disesses ; it is the India Cos)ttr,
w hieb, ig prepared by Dr. Osgood of New York, wlo has made tbe
bilious disorders of the West I. is especial study. We are no friend
tothote medicines usually called p.tent. but we have had ample
opportunity of knowing tbe invaluable etfects of the Cholagogu
In bilioiw rases."
Tba speedy and permanent telief afforded by the Cholagxigne,
arises from its prompt and healthy action upon the t.lood, cleansing
it from bile and restoring it to purity; thus striking at tbe root.
Its tendency is not simply to suspend disessA, but to remove th
cause on v. hich it depends. It is equally adapted to all ages and
conditions of ths system.

Messrs. Sanford & Park : In June last I was attacked with that
most emirting aad unpleasant disrate, the Chill and Fever. Ihe
paroxysms returned dailv. and were very severe. My physical
energies had been mach impaired, I y a previoaa atmclt ot bidue
fever. Having tried several favorite remedies without rtlirf,
friend in whom 1 had confidence, recommended Dr. Osgood In
dia Cholagogum 1 procured a l ottle, and followed ihe accomrai.y
in directions. The consequence was, that I had but one paroxy
bm after takieg the find doe, and my general health w as rapidly
restored without using any other mtxacino. I ilispaaed witti tba
remainder of the bottle to two other persons similarlv afflicted, and
with the same results. One ot them had been shaking for eight
months, and was relieved In two days by the use of the Cholsgogu.
1 consider it my duty, as it is my pleasure to recommend it, having
the most entire confidence tn its sanative powers.
Yours, truly, 8. F. CAREY.
