He was in his prime the handsomest man in the French army. He was the most reckless gambler, the most profligate roue, one of the Most skillful swordsmen in his regi- I ment, and one of the bravest. He was always occupied either by duels, fight ing Arabs or making love. Twenty campaigns endured in Africa g ained him reputation and rank. From Lieutenant of Artillery he rose, step by step and by force of merit, to the post of General. When the Crimean was broke out he was at, the head of a division of infantry, and displayed talents and qualities which rendered him conspicuous among the host of French warrior chief's. It was rumor ed that the Emperor feared his popu larity and was jealousof it : for know ing.him to be the most sagacious of ficer in his army be suffered Canro• bert and Pellissier to be appointed over him. Bosquet was a laughing good humored fellow, and took his fate kindly. Adored by his soldiers, in favor with all his brother officers, and satisfied with the,rehown he was gaining, he could submit to tempora. ry mortification. The coarse, unprin cipled and depraved St. Arnaud—that man of iron nerve, who almost died in his saddle rather than yield to dis ease—loved Bosquet like a brother. The two were inseparable, and were theinbers of the lambus group of vi veure.who, when Louis Napoleon was President, gathered around him for orgie and conspiracy. Bosquet lost his best friend when St. Arnaud died, though the battle of the Alma was an exploit more friend ly to him than any marshal, for -it' sent his name triumphantly tp._,Paris„ l where he was lauded as a hero. At Inkermann he distinguished himself by his generalship and his courage.— They say, regardless of his rants, he I . dashed into the fight with the ardor of a subaltern. His glittering sabre strewed the ground with corpses, and his man cheered in a frenzy of ekcite ment at the daring of their chief.— Bosquet's succor to Lord Raglan's troops in a moment of' peril, render ed him a favorite with the English 1 army. Parliament voted him format thanks for this exploit, and the Sultan decorated him with the order of the Medjidie of the first class—an honor accorded before only to sovereigns and princes of the blood. Bosquet was at the Mamelon Vert and at the t taking of Malakoff fighting always in the bloodiest manner.. It was said of him, like St. Arnaud, that he grew crazy at the sight of blood, and woo then to the man within reach of his sabre. When he went back to France the Emperor could not avoid taking marked notice of him. He was sue, cessively .made Senator, Marshal of t . France, Knight of the Bath (in Eng land) and Knight of the Legion of ' Honor. His honors were rich and plenty. They gave him a royal in come, and like a rollicking soldier he spent it. Bosquet's equipages, Bos quet's dinners and Bosqnet's armours were-the talk of all Paris. His bear ing was a fine one, the rough experi• ence of camps had given him a man ly grace, in the prime of life be seem ed determined to drain the cup of pleasure in the capital to the dregs. There were rumors in the clubs of the sad and profligate revels which Bosquet, the Emperor and the Count de Fleury held at St. Cloud palace.— Besquet's name was on every tongue. He was a wrai lion. One bright morn ing, however, he paid the penalty of his immorality with his death wound. The bright eyes of the wife of a young inferior officer had attracted him, and his prestige, chivalric, generous ways, his gallant military presence proved a poor lady's rain. Discovered by the outraged husband, he was not al. lowed time to defend himself, and, helpless and unarmed, he received the 'avenging sword-blade deep in his breast. - The warm blood nearly spur. ted tortb the gay Marshal's life, but finally the wound was staunched, and a suffering, almost dying man, he was conveyed to his own residence. soon a given the The story was hushed as much as t p h o e s si ble. cause ofA hduel,isillness,e,,,wbeqrte entire adventure became known, and the clubs chattered and gossiped free ly about. : The Emperor protected the -young officer at Bosquet's request: 25 69 /FM $425 77 $5 00 ona ', 1 1 $5B 00 !MEI 84 68 9 17 1800 00 2* d 0 97 90 90 8 00 12 00 300 60 9000 $556 86 $2BB 02 $323b 2a LEBANON, PA., WEDNESDAY, MAECII 27, 1861. He went through a mock trial, and was acquitted. In the Italian war, .recently, he served with distinction. Ali this time—nine weary months— Bosquct lingered on, day after day his wound slowly killing him: - Stretched on a sick beciAhe once dashing officer must have indulged in sad reflections. They say he prayed, and prayed for death. Probably nobody thought a offering him the consolations of religion- Alow they sneer at those things there— though the woman for whom he was dying and an affectionate sister gave him every sympathy and care. Fin. ally, the spirit fled, and at the age of 51, the hero Bosquet is honored' by a gorgeous, imposing funeral. What a lamentable finale, and isn't the Whole career peculiarly French 7 SCENE AT THE PATENT OF I le 4' A DOWN EASTER IN StARCIII OF A 'BEltlll.—The Washington States and Union relates the following amusinc , incident:— As the time for The new adminis, tration approaelies, the crowds who throng to Washington increase.— Those who make them are not alto gether disinterested. Some are on office bent. Curious Ways some of theM have of finding out where best to drive the stakes-,-that's so; what post would best suit their genius. It has come to this; that some have gone as far as to took into the differ ent departments in advance, and to. make inquiry of the incumbent cleric as to the probable time, &e., of his decease as such. An instance of this kind happened the other day at the Patent Office, A. long, slab-sided, rickety, carroty topped individual from "Neiew England," with the richest •Yankee patois, walked into the library of the Patent Office, pre sided over by professor Jillson, late of Columbian College, an urbane gentle man, fine scholor, no politician, but with a sense of humor. stranger, kin I look at books here ? 'Spose they're public proper. ty ?' 'Certainly,' said the Professor; 'what book would you desire ?' And the Professor marched toward the cases of heavy French and Ger man tomes, which he has to sift for the benefit of our inventors. 'Wall, I'd like to sec the book they ell the Blue Book.' 'Ali sir, I'm sorry we hav'nt it here. You are at liberty to read any of the books which we have.' 'Fact is,.l went to find out the best berth I can, expectin' Mr. Linkin to put me in when he comes into peow er, I ravther like this birth stranger; 'spose you don't speet to stay, hey ? What's the salary ? Couldn't you let me know as to the dooties?' ain sorry, Lo say,.the salary hard ly pays for the dutieS. It is only what you would earn by close labor in a eorn.field out West.' 'Never mind that; what's the doo ties ? Think I can do 'em.' 'I am not well enougil acquainted with your acquisitions to answer.— First I have to keep an eye to all the books here.' "Well, .that's not. so hard; guess could do that as.weli , as any.' 'Next have to make indexes and read proof of Patent Reports.' 'That will come, I guess, by a little practice.' 'Then,' said the Professor, with a merry twinkle, have to translate for the use of the office from these books, most of which I have to com mit to memory, and from the various ancient and modern languages in• eluding Sancrit, Hebrew, Rindoo, Swedish, French, German, Chocktaw, Kickapoo"— Before the suave Professor had fin ished his inventory, his oflice•seeking interlocutor had his hat on, and pre cipitated himself into the corridor, with a hasty; do stranger.— Good day." EXTRAORDINARY JUGGLING FEArs , A correspondent of the London Tittles gives the following account of the feats of a juggler in the streets of Pekin "He first of all spoke for about five minutes, with all the volubility of Charles Matthews, evidently saying Soniething witty, for the people round laughed heartily. In, the _middle of his harangue, however, he was seized with a fit of' choking, and, after an effort of trying to get something out of his throat, drew forth a little slip bamboo, like aLisbon toothpick, then another and another; then he sneez ed, and out they came from his nos trils, then from his eyes, until he completed the number of thirty-sev en, by making one appear halfway out of each orifice at the same time, and then threw the lot on the ground foe any one to examine. He next took three glass balls, about an inch in diameter, and, placing them singly between his lips, sucked then - ) into his mouth and swallowed first a red one, then a blue, and, last of all, a white one. here was a little interlude of toothpicks and talking, after which he walked gravely round the ring, stopping four times; each time he gave himself a shake and - a jump, when the balls were distinctly heard to jingle inside him. On completing his round, after several efforts, he spat the balls out on the ground in the„same, order . he bad swallowed them: the red : first, the white last.— He then toek pip more :balls,. one of polished.,stsel,„ab.out the size ota hen's egg, and, - ,another bf glasa, ; the same size. 1 'T,r? , , , E.) he first,let th e .ground, ntinw theidiseTo solid ; then, placing there betuwhis lips, swallowed them,liieftbeopltel . .ones, but with difficulty; £lie ball sweliint the throat as it went .down. Hero, more toothpicks and• , talking ' while he prepared two : swords, about an inch wide and twenty long, very like polished :hoop•iron, clashed them to gether, to showthat they were real, and'passed both down his throat at once, until they struck the balls with an audible click; withdrawing these, he placed his bands behind him, and, after several apparently painful tri• als, each ball rose in his throat, and fell from his mouth to the ground with a heavy thump.' FAULT-FINDING BEAR YE ONE ANOTWER'S BURDENS : —The spirit of this passage forbids that we should make the failings of other men a source of amusement to ourselves•and now I am 'coming to it. I will admit that there is a play ful, good-natured kind of badinage that is harmless. The reprehension or exp6sition of a man's faults in a light, genial spirit, is often the best way of telling him of them. 1 do not, therefore, say that all innocent raillery and good-natured reprehen sions is to be disallowed. On the contrary, it may be allowed. It must be genuine, however, producing good and not pain. But he that makes the mistakes, the foibles, the faults, the misconcep tions of •men—the ten thousand infe licities of human life—the subject matter of comment, of jest and social enjoyment, and of personal amuse ment, is simply a barbarian. He is not a Christian ; ho does not belong to that category. It is one of those things that are monstrous in the sight of God. Could you do it to your child ? A mother may tantalize her child. She may do a thousand things with it, causing it to hover vibrating between a tear and a smile, sometimes I on ono side, and sometimes on the I other, just for a moment ; but she in stantly presses it to her bosom, and covers its face with kisses, so that there is no shade left upon its spirits. And there is such a thing as inno cent raillery. But to watch to see what is awkward in others; to search out the infirmities of men; to go out like a street-sweeper, or a universal scavenger, to collect the faults and failings of people, to carry these things about as if they were cherries, flowers; to throw them out of your bag or pouch, and make them an evening repast or a noonday meal, or the amusement of a social hour, en livened by unfeeling criticisms, heart• less jests and cutting sarcasms; to take a man up as you would a chicken, and gnaw his flesh from-his very bones, and then lay him down, saying with fiendish exultation : "There is his skeleton,"—this is devilish ! You may call it by as many pretty names as you please, but it is-devilish I and you will do nothing worse than this when you go to hell—for you may expect to go there if you have such a disposi• Con and do not change it. Talk about cannibalism f Cannibals never eat a man till - he is dead. They .are near er Christ than you are, a great deal. MYSTERIOUS AND HORRIBLE AFFAIR. —On the 28th ult., the wife of B. B. Cooley, living in Frederick county, Virginia, was missed from home, and discovered under the most extraordi nary circumstances. A letter in the Alexandria Gazette says : "Darkness approaching, and the la dy- continuing to be absent, caused considerable alarm, and the hands which. had. then come in from the field instituted aseareh. On approach ing the meat house, groans were heard emanating therefrom, and as the key • could not be found, attempts to break down the door were begun; but while these were in progress the key was ; found in the dwelling house, the do sr opened, and the lady, in a complete state of nudity, was found sitting on the floor, with her hands covering her face, and perfectly. unconscious. Some of her clothes were hanging from the meat hooks in the rafters, and some wero strewed about the' floor. A salting tray was almost fill-' ed with blood, apparently fresh spill ed. Marks, resembling those made by the pressure of fingers were updn her arms,. and her head, neck,' and side were horribly mutilated by what appeared' td be a puncturing instru ment. Her shoeS..and stockings were found under her bed, in her, ehaMber, saturated with blood. Medical aid was promptly procured, and every• thing done for the unfortunate lady that science and skill could suggest, but all was of no avail. She lingered in the same helpless condition in which she was found, until Saturday last, when death came to her relief. Her husband, who had started from his home on the Manassas Gap Railroad, with cattle for the city, on the same day his wife met with this terrible ,calamity, waslelegraphed to rq ‘ kurn instantly, but returned - just in time to see his estimable lady expire. No clue has yet been obtained for the so lution of this most extraordinary oc prrence.

DISTRESSM43 3 .O-AsE OF HYDROPHOBIA. —The Bin - g,himpton Republican says: "We have just-heard from one of our , citizens whe_returned from ,Arrarat, Pa., about twelve miles south of Sus quelianna Depot, of a singular and distressing - case of hydrophobia.— About two years ago, Miss Sarah Low, danghter l -of Lewis: Low, a re. spectable fiiriner, started to visit a neighbor across the fields a short dis tance, and after - going a little way, was furiously attacked by a large dog, (afterwards. ascertained to be' mad,) who'tore nearly all the clothes off her; but, reaching a stone fence, Miss Low Succeeded in getting over, and the dog, in - Attempting to follow, pulled down . a large stone, which, fulling_ on his foot, held him fast, and Hiss L. as she supposed at the time, without being bitten. A few months age Aliss Low was mar ried to Mr. Albert Townsend, and on Sunday, the 3d inst., while herself and husband were riding in a carriage to her father's house, Mrs. T. &hibi• ted symptoms of hydrophobia.

She continued in the same way up to the time our inform ant left (Friday morning last) and it was supposed that she could not sur vive much longer. It is believed by her friends that when attacked by the mad dog two years ago, there. must have been some abrasion of the skin hot observed at the time, through which some virus from the mad dog penetrated the system. HINTS TO HUSBANDS • Here is something which should be cut out, preserved, and carefully read once a week : Never wish for the dishes your mother prepared for you when a boy. There is nothing of which a wife is more jealous than a mother in-la W's cookery; besides, there is scarcely a doubt that the very dishes so much longed for, would fail to please you now. When a boy everything was relished with a boyish zest, but now, even your mother noted for cookery of the old-fashioned dishes, if' you have become accustomed to the more modern styles, would be found faulty. But suppose she was, and is now, a perfect house keeper in all respects, is it kind or gentlemanly to put your mother, with her years of experience, in competition with your young and inexperienced wife? You must bear and forbear, as very likely your fath er did before you, or you will never have a housekeeper in your wife. - Do you not remember, if you have been married a few years, many times to have found your dinner spoiled, wife out of tune, and yourself seri• ously annoyed, when you could, with out injury to: business, or even tres passing on the laws of courtesy, have been punctual to the moment? And again, when for important reasons you desire the dinner prompt, you have found it far from ready, have you not found fault, and been reproached with such want of regularity yourself as to Make it i mpssi We to keep up a proper system in the family? If not; you are a pattern husband, whose example it would be well for many to copy. If your wife has no servants, or not sufficient to do the work of the family, her time' is as precious as, yours, and the moments waiting fOr:yciu, must be made up by extra exertion throughout the day, or taken from the hours necessary for repose at night. You little think of this, or your practice would bcdif fe rent. A TICKLISH SITUATION The Calaveras (Cal.) Chronicle, of the 19th of January, relates the fol. i lowing story : While At:i.e.l was on a c prospecting tour last week,. in., the neighborhood of Garland's ranch on "Old Woman's Gulch," he observed a tunnel, and approaching it, he heard a noise as of miners working within, and proceeded to pay them a visit.— When ho had ventured through the dense darkness one hundred and fifty feet, all at once his feet gave way, and he was precipitated to the bottom of a shaft thirty-five feet deep, breaking two of his ribs and other. wise injuring him. On recovering his senses he found he had a companion; a large California shank had met with a like misfortune, apparently some ten days before. His sktinkship -had be come desperate, through htinfAcr, thrist and confinement, and attacked him with all the ferocity of a tiger, bit him severely on the face and hands, he being too feeble to protect himself. In this condition ho remained some thirty hours, When,,luckily, two min ers passed that way, heard his faint cries, and rescued him from his peril ous situation, made doubly so from the .fact that this tunnel is situa ted in a very lonely, obscure place, no one scarcely ever passing except !Mr. Garland, in the spring time, viewing his fence. Mr. Atiel said he thought his case a hopeless one, at first, but after praying two hours he took cour afro and commenced hallooing and fighting the skunk, which he kept up to the moment of his rescue.

Conceive his feelings, when :a voice from under the bonnet squeak ed out “Here! what. 'are you doing? I'll tell my husband !" Unfortunate ly, it was a fair customer, and' - not a lady figure, whom he had treated se uncavalierly. "Excuse me, madam, I thought you were a dummy!" gasp ed the luckless mortal, retreating breathlessly towards his room, as the only practical' refuge. Tmagine his horror—imagine the lady's trepida tion—imagine the irrepressible gi,g. Ong of the feminine shoppers who had witnessed the whole scene !

He hadn't gone far when he saw a whaling big snake slip ping along the oats after him. Away he went, round and round the patch, and away went the snake right along with him; sometimes on one side and sometimes on the other, som etimethei. fore and sometimes behind. He could not get out of the lot because the fence was up, and as the snake kept constantly With .. the , re- was no chance but to leave the old horse,_,gO and try to keep out of its way. He went it that way till every stalk of oats was tramped down, and until the horse was just-about dead, when be discovered that he'd ,been running from the shadow of Me othn scythe snathe.
