t THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1870. vt r o i. r: o xs con n es poxdexce. THE NOTE ON BF.TXtTUM. M. Conti hni adilrossed the following letter to tbo Journal de Uruxdlcs: My name Laving beon mixcl up in tlio publication of two document -5 f.mn.l tit the Tuileries, I Leg you to receive the following explanations ou the subject: The note re lating to Jc!(inm, which ia w.M to have been dictated to me by the.Euiperor, cannot be in my handwiitiog. Never has his Majesty dic tated a similar note. The paper without date or signature which has been so much spoken f is most probably one of Uim many docu ments which reached the Cabinet every day, and from nil sides, on questions of intorunl, external, finjiricial and coiuu.it rci.il policy, etc. With a little good faith it would have been easy to convince any one of this. I Lave but one word to nay on tho letter of M. Jecker. This gontleui ui brought it him self to ne, and, having read it in hi- pre sence, seeing that it contained n demand for money, with threats, in case of refusal, to divulge defamatory documents, 1 threatened to deliver him up to justice as uuilty of the crime of calumniation, and I requested him ! L - I , . : i, i 1 - . .. i I 10 !.' yo my .iuce. oiucc tueii x iiuvu uui Been him again. As I have begun to acllress rectification! to you, allow me to add that I am authorized to declare apocryphal the manifesto signed "Napoleon," which has been copied from the English journals by the Belgian press. Uruxellfs, Oct. (!, 170. Conti. AmoDar tho letters and projects dictated by Napoleon to his Chef du Cabinet tho follow ing letter figures. It throws light on the designs and the proceedings of the imperial policy (without date): If Franco is to boldly adopt tLo doctrines of nationalities it is necessary to maintain henceforth that there is no ilalgian nation ality with the French nationality, and to establish this essential point with tho French nation. On the other hand, the Cabinet of Uerlin, being disposed to entor into such arraDgtmcnts os it may suit Fiance to enter tain with it, there will be occasion to nego tiate a secret treaty which will bind both parties. Without relying on this treaty being a perfectly sure guarantee, it would have the double advantage of compromising Trussia, as, being for her a pioof of the sin cerity of the policy and intention of tho Emperor. It is recommended not to hide from onrptlves, so long as one knows tho character of the King of Prussia and of Lis Trime Minister, the fact that the late diplo matic incidents, as well as the actual tenden cies of public opinion in Frp nee, must have opened thtir eyes to the circumstance that we Lave not ceased to claim the frontier of the lthine. To make sure of meeting with the confidence which is necessary for tho main tenance of intimate entente, we must employ ourBelvts in dissipating those ' ap prehensions which have always been fostered by tho expectation of this eventuality, and tho apprehension! which Lave also been awakened by our late commnnichtiuns. These results cannot be attained by words; thero inust bo an act (and one which would consist in determining the nltimate fate of Belgium) is concert with Prussia; by proving at Berlin that the Empe ror is really looking elsowhere than on the Hhine for that extension necessary to France. After tho events which Lavo recently trau ' spired in Germany that will gain for us at least a rt-lutive certainty that the Prussian Government will not place any obstacle in the way of our aggrandizement in the north. EUCEXIE. The following letter from the Empress Eu genie to her husband is of interest at tho present moment. As will bo seen, it was written during her Majesty's travels in the East, when she went to open tho Suez Canal. It reads: ON BOAHI) THE IsiPER ATTIIC'E, IN THE NlEE, Oct. '27, 1'"7. My Dearest Louis: I wrote to you en route (word illegible; on the Nile. To tell you that wo are enjoying fresh breezes que nous aeons finis) would not be absolutely the truth: but the heat is tolerable, for there is some air, but in the sun it is quite a diaerent thing. Besides, I tell you tbo state of the atmosphere by tele graph. Through the same means I have news of 50U and of Louis every day; it is marvel lous and pleasant to mo that I am always fastened to the dear shore by this wire, which joins me to all that I love. I am delighted by our charming journey, and I would like to give you a description of it; but so many other narrators, more clever and learned than I, Lave ULdertaken the tusk that tho best tbing.to my mind, is for me to shroud myself up in mute admiration. I was very uneasy all day yesterday, thinking that you were in Paris without me; but all has gone on well, as I see by the despatch. YYLea we see other nations one judges and appreciates much more the injustice of our own. 1 think, in spite of everything, that we should not bo discouraged, and that you must advance, on the path vou Lave inaugurated (it marcher Hans la vote 11 ue tu as maugure ic): good faith on concession that have been made is, I may tell you, people think and say (on li pense et (lit !), a good thing. I hope, then, that vour address will be in this direc tion; the mere you will need force in tho future, the more it will be necessary to prove to the country that you have (qiCon u (it) ideas and not expedients. I am, sinco my depart are, very far away from and very ignorant of afiairs to speak thus, but I am lirmly convinced that sequence in ideas is true strength. I do not like a coup (tic), and lam persuaded that one can't effect a coup d'etat twice in the reign. I speak at random, for I am per&uadiuy a man already convinced of what Le knows more about , than I. But one must Bay something, if it were only (nefut ce sic') to prove what you well know that my heart is near you both, and that if in tranquil days my vagabond mind likes to wanac through pace (InisUs t apace), in those of CExi'j aurt T-'iet y place is by the side of you both. . f Isolated from men and business, y"ol breathes calm atmosphere, which djes you good; and deluded by imagination I believe that all things go well because of all things I am ignoiant. Amuse yourself; relaxation I believe to be indispensable; one must re fresh the 11101 al as one does the physical con stitution, aLdanidea constantly delt upon ends (tt u ne idee conntanU fluit ) sic) by wear ing even the best organized brain. I have experienced this; and if all that has daring my life made the beautiful colors of my illusions fade I now no longer wish to remember. My life ia finished; but I lire again in my son, and my true joys, I believe, are those which, passing througk Lis heart, reach mine. Meanwhile,! enjoy (je jui) (tie) my journey, the snn Bets ties couches (sic) du soleilj; the savage nature reduced to cul tivation on the banks of a breadth of fifty metres (ic), and behind that the desert with ita decors all resplendent in the rays of a burning sun. Au reeoir, and believe in the love of her Mho is entirely devoted to you. Ei oem EX-SECRETARY COX. i'nuaea which 1,A im 1 1 Ik Krwlarnnttoa Lndlei ontlntiln the War lure. The New York lleraH nag tho following Washing ton despatch : The newspapers in all parts of the country are so full of fitatements regarding the causes that led to the withdrawal of Secretary Cox from the Cabinet, and these statements are so conflicting and contra dictory, that the penerrl public must be sorely bothered to arrive at any opinion on the subject. There seems to be no doubt of the fact I telegraphed you long since namnly, that tho assessment of e'erks In the Interior Department for political pur poses and obstacles to civil service reform were not Hie oiilv rcuHona why Mr. Cox took his sudden leave. The course of the ex-Secrctary ou the McOarralian land claim has had more to 'do with the step tliau most people Imagine. Mr. Cox'a skirts arc notsi clmr as his friends would like to make the public believe, and before this war of opposition to thu ad ministration Is over he will doubticfs (ind out that lie has niaile a grand mistake lu provoking attacks fiom those who otherwise would have suf I r d him to go In peace and ret la oblivion. AU the tacts may not come out for a few dais, but come they will, sooner or later. Little disagree ments and tiupleiisjiitiKSU'eH in the female depart ment have served to heighten tho new-formed dis like between the Grannies and Coxites. It Is al leeed that some of the bitter newspaper articles re cently pul lished criticizing Presidctit. H rant's action oe the (mention of ascalng clerks were written hr Mr. Patent Commissioner l iwher, who is a brother-in-law of ex Secretary Cox. Madame Secretary Cox, niter perusing one of the.e Fisher arti cli s, cut It out iiud inclosed it to Mrs. Oraut, anonymously. Uniortuna''!iy for Mrs. Cox, how evcr. she accidentally put. the obnoxious article In an envelope, bearing' the fanilv monogram of Cox, and of course Mrs. oraut Immediately knew whence It came. Further, she recognized the callgrnphy of Madame Cox, from whom sue had received letters; therefore, when Mrs. Orant glanced over the article she naturally felt Indignant, and pur. It into a Umnt ruvelope with the simple but cutting irords, "i;e turned to Mrs. Cox, with the compliments of Mrs. Cranr." Since then the two ladles, I am taformed, have not spoken. Dickon nnd John H. t'lnrlie. Mr. fleorge W.Uurtls. In his lecture upon Pickens, delivered at the Acalemy last nlgiit, said of Dickens: "The intense mornl purpne vrnt the grant cbnrjctcriflic of DiokoDB an a novelml . lie did not preach Hermans, Out none tho lna was bis m'tral ptrp'fe fi'ii'c-i tn rrrry riUntv, Kven '1'ickwick' lias for one of ita principal objects thq improving of debtors' tiribons; 'Nicholas Nicklhy' deals with cruel choolirnistors and hard schools; 'Oliver Twist' with poorbousits; 'David (.'oppertield' with model prisons: 'Little Dorrit' with the circumlocution olliee,' and 'lilcnk llouso'nith the 'ion winter of Chancery.' Before Dickens 'poverty and snMering had not been heard.' Uliarles Dickens made wretuheilnuss eloquent ; he coin- polled tne laimuu to look and listen; and so we tinnk of him 'aaa man and relermer rather tbon as au ar'Utand author.' 'He subsoilod the public in nd,' ami made it soft and fruitful for seed to be sown by the baud of other a woll a buneelf. lie was aa Pennine an Knulislmiim as leroe, but ho compelled his countrymen to listen to uim1 ot thiough his caustic gravity and bit terness, but by his tfijniii't ynire anft the inayic of his inavfillttttM htnnttr. The same eminent gentleman, speaking of Mr. John S. Clarke during .Mr. Clarke's engagement at the Inter Harden Theatre, prior to his departure for Eurcpe, used the following language, the slo.il lurily of which to the above-quoted eulogy of tho great novelist is worthy of remark : "Air Clarke is a dramatic artist of unquestionable genius, lie Is a comic acirr, but tt ia not genteel comedy , nor broad cr rucdy. nor etott s.Uo comedy, nor Imcical comedy that be plats, mit joyous comely; joyous, elegant sad in tellectual, and ot tlio most dobcate, senMiive, pure humor J hr fhri' 0 his ii,nti() it as rftunrkn1'!? as the same qi klity in in Dickens or Irving.

The deaths at Mobile, from yello v fever, during the months of August. September and October, of this year, were lt0. as compared with C4 for tho same period of 1S3II. C. 1). (iatch, tho physician who was one of the witnesses to the assassination of President Lincoln, and the first to examine the wound and declare it mortal, died last week at Millford, Clermont county, Ohio. A few days since, at Toledo, Ohio, a man named Gilbert, who had abused his wife in a shameful manner, was bo affected by the report that the had commenced a suit for divorce th it be became quite infano, started out of hu house, nnd has not eieco been heard of. Sjivamus Cobb, Jr., who makes the splendid ptories for tho New York Jxuhjn; in which the hero always wears a lovely hat with a big plume in it, and "the heroine has a wicked mother participates in the local politics of llvdo Park, Jlaes. A complete historical record of the civil war, compiled from Southern newspapers, and extending from December, 1S(K), to December S5, 1608. has been offered for sale by tho owner to the Charleston Library Society. It is com prised in thirty-seven volumes, each of which is ftirnli-bed with an index. An Irish police ollicer In the West, who was recently found enjoying his pipe over a pmoking bow l of whisky-punch, gave as an ex cuse to his superior bflicer that he had been pursued b' a ghost, and would have died in a cold perspiration but for the heating intlucucc of the whisky. A sailor named Joseph Tibbie, who was in a email boat on Lake Huron at the time of the late, earthquake, 6tates that the waters seemed to boil, that small lumps of rnud were thrown into the air, aud that thousands of llsh catne to the surface nnd jumped about as if being pur sued. A boy about fifteen years of age, on of a man named McDermott," at Auburn, .Mass, was recently attacked by a grey eagle, measuring eight leet from tip to tip, and would hava been killed but far the timely aid of an uncle, who was obliged to beat the llcrce creature to death in self-defense. V Independent, a paper published at Quebec, says it is reasonable to suppose from the inva sion of France by the Prussiaus that Canada may be at any time overrun by American sol ditis, if the present opportunity be not fully availed of to put the country in a complete Plate of defense by the erection of fortification at all the principal points along the border line. The career of the Cincinnati lUse Ball Club, better known as the "Red Stockings," was com menced in lSt'-'J. During that season the picked nine met the best clubs of the East and West, and out of seventy contests were not ouce de feated. Their recent run of ill-luck has been attributed to the demoralizing intlueuce of poli tics, but next season they are determined to Bink all dilterences of opinion, aud make u last effort to regain their lott laurels. The debut of Mrs. Joseph Ames as a lec turer, at Hoeton. the other night, lrom the na ture of her subject. "Women who Work vs. V( men who Talk." drew together a large and fashiouable audience. It was generally expected that she would take sides with those of her sex who are again t au extension of the franchise t women, and there was, consequently, a good deal of surprise manifested wbeu she came out boldly as an advocate of female suffrage, he is lepresented as handsome, self-possessed, and "quite at home with her audieute." ome citizens of Tennessee recently gave E radical evidence of their determination not to e swindled by railroad gambler. Twenty of theFe individuals, who had been defrauding the w hite and black employes of the Nathville and Chattanooga Railroad, were suddenly pouueed iikon at one of the stations on the line, aud lashed with horsewhips until they called aloud for inercy and promised a speedy reformation . tvj "its. It seems to us that a little of this ikind of 'justice in1" b "ulf V nearer home. , N.
