are utterly unable to settle their Mil for
dress, and it is stated bj Hie English
press that it is as much as many rJ them
can do to pay the interest on thu large
debts which following the imperial
modes has caused them to incur. The
world owes criuoline to the fair Eugenie;
and the rougher half of its civilized pop
ulation does not feel, by any manuer of
means, grateful to her for the introduc
tion of the articles.-- Rhe has made her
rpartmenta in the the Tuileries as mag
nificent as the palaces one reads about
in theoricntal fables. '-'
The doors of her boudoir are of ivorr.
inlaid with gold. The furniture is of
rosewood, inlaid with mirrors, gold, ivory,
ana is tipnoisierea witn pale red silk.
Stnyrnian carpeting of the heaviest text

splendidly frescoed. The desks and
portfolios are of tortoise shell, arabesqued
witn gold, ana the most Valuable paint

wall. The beautiful woman who has
surrounded herself with these luxuries
spends an almout fabulous amount annu

subscribing unheard of sums in aid of
certain vast political schemes, fir she is
withal an intriguing politician. The
Empress is thirty nix years of age, and
therefore .old enough to have learned
prudence; yet she is more prodigal now
than in the heyday of hr youth and

Embaliains ths Dead A Process
Practicable to All.
The modern processes by which the
bodies of olltcers and boldicrs ot the
army have been embalmed and restored
lo their friends is not Ihe least of the
blessings which science has bestowed
upon the world since the beginning of
the war. 1 lie expense oi this process, in
most cases; places its advantages beyond
the reach of people of moderate nieana.
Those who have adopted the business as
a profession, are in some cases, extortion
ous in their charges, particularly where
olllcers are the subjects; and the whole
matter is surrounded by professional tie
crecy impenetrable to persons of unsci
eutillc tastes. . i
A matter of so great general utiliiy
and importance should not be monopo
lized or turned wholly to individual
emolument. It may not be out of place
to give, in this connection, a ninnle reel
pe by which anr physician or surgeon
of ordinary capacity can embalm the
dead, and preserve them Irom uecoiitpo

Emancipation Act for Missouri- .
In the proceedings of tbe House of
representatives, on the Glh inst, we find
the following action on the bill to aid
Missouri to abolish slavery:
Mr. Noel, of Mo., from the Committee
on Emancipation, reported a bill to aid
Missouri in securing the abolishment of
slavery therein. Tim bil provides for
the issue of If 10,000,(100, thirty years'
bonds, payable to loyal owners, t lie Gov
ernment p edging itelf to the deportation
of the treed men.
Mr. Yallandlgham objected to the con
sideration of the bill for reasons stated,
but the Speaker overruled tho objection
He madebis decision iu accordance with,
that heretofore appl icd to tin; French
spoliation. .
Mr. elements, of Icon., was not aware
that this bill would be reported, aud as
a member of the special comniiltce on
emancipation lie objected in it. Last
session it was proposed to appropriate
$18,000,000 to Virginia, Maryland, Mis
souri, and Delaware. 1 his was on a na
tional basis, where as this bill is of a sec
tional character, referring a- it did to
only one htate. '
Mr. WiekhCe had seen it stated in
public prints that some time after the
issue of the proclamation information
bad been received by the President from
intelligent, whole-souled Union men.
which satisfied him that a great aud
powerful change had taken place in favor
of this miserable abolition scheme; he
felt it to be his duty and privilege to
state on the floor, in the face of Heaven,
in the presenco of Congress, and in tho
hcarinir of the nation, that there was not
one man in thirty in Kentucky who was
in favor oi tuo proclamation; he said
this again and again, whether it be by
fraud, purchase, or otherwise,
Mr. Noel said the people of Missouri
had said they would abolish slavery.
' In reply to Mr. Clements, Mr. Nocll
remarked that the people of Tennessee
bail no regular Slate Government, and
hence could not act upon and accept, suuli
a proposition .11 was expecting too
muon to tmnn uir niu nuruer oiave oiates

arrive, the benefits might be extended.
Mr. Ilolman moved to lay the bill 011
e table, which was agreed (0 by a
le of 42 to 13
tbe
vote
Mr. Elliott moved to exclude from the
benefits of tho act all those w ho wilfully
refuse to tako the oath. Adopted, 7."i
to 20. "
Mr. Pendleton moved to table the bill,
which was
negatived, 4 I to Ti.
ms moved to adjourn. Ncga-
Mr. Cravens moved

The bill then passed by a vote of 7.'5
to 1(5.
Captured letters establish the fact that
the Nashville f.'n'twi newspaper is owned
really by rebels in tlie Southern airay,
aud that the profits of Ihe Government
printiiij; dono in that cilice go to tbo bi n
t fil of the rebels. llrihavyei, ,. ,
The rebels may bo pleased with tho
"piofits," hul they can't be well suited
with th "law"' as the Union expounds it.
It t!o- for confiscating their estates and
hanging the leaders. We guWss the f'ii.ii

in partisan enterprises, but this was at-
PTrTbuted rather to the stromi th of narliec.
than to the superiority of his intellect
and knowledge of human nature. We
Kuow him better now. Amid the dilli-
culties and trying scenes of lha past few
months he has been fully tested. He has
come forth from the crucible pure gold.
In the brightest day of bis renown as a
narlv leader, be never anoeared in a
light so glorious as that which now sur
rounds him. More than everhas he shown
himself to be f the peojrtc, understanding
their wants and taking care of their in
terests, whilst endeavoring to preserve
and perpetuate the government which htts
sheltered and protected them, and nevir
oppressed any oue. Most truly does he
"deservo their confidence," and most snie-
will they do him justice.
f
It has not been tho fortune of Governor
Johnson to conduct hid Administration
without bringing opon himself censure
sometimes. But no true Union man has
ever doubted the purity of hisnotives or
the honesty of his zeal in the holy cauo
of prostrating the rebellion, and restoring
Tennessee to the prosperity and happi

Tbe following.ttnecdote of Pope Pius
JX. is related in a monthly rcvinw enti
tled hi Moiule Jtttliciete: "The Sovereign
PoutiiT, among his other powers, enjoy
that of annulling tint wills of bis sub-
Filets. The son of a Roman lanifud pro-
prietor complained to his Holiness that
his father had bequeathed the half of
his fortune, or .'0,0001', to the priest-who.
on a particular day and in a church.
named, should say thfl first mass. Th
Pope, not daring to cancel a will on. ac
count, of an act of religious insanity,
adopted another plan. He went hi nisei f
at daybreak to Ihe church in finest ion
and celebrated the first mans.' He thus
gained tho 10,()00f., which ho then ban !-'
ed over to the grateful heir."
