A fortnight now , passed away, during
Which Napoleon and Josephine saw but M
lle of eackother. During this time there
occurred the anniversary of the corona
lion and the victory of Austerlitz. - Paris
was filled 'with rejoicing. The bells rang
their merriest peals. In these festivals
Josephine was, compelled to appear. She
knew that the Sovereigns and Princes then
'Assembled in ,Paris, were apprised of her
approaching disgrace; in all -these rounds
of . ..enjoyment she heard but the knell of
her_own dooth. And though . a careful ob
:server, in her moistened eye and palid
cheek, would have observed : indications o f
the secret woe which was consuming her
heart, , her habitual pliability and grace,
never?, in.public, for one moment,-forsook
her. Hortense; languid and horror-strich

duty attending the divorce: His first in

Josephine, her eyes filled with tears,
With, a faltering voice, replied:
"I respond to all the sentiments of the
Emperor,in consenting to the dissolution of
a marriage - which henceforth is an ohsta
ble to the happiness of France, by, depriv
ing it of the blessings of being one day
governed by the descendants of ':a great
man, evidently raised up by;Providence to
efface the evils of a terrible revolution, and
to restore the altar, the throne, end social
order. But his marriage will in no res
peet 'Clitiegit the sentiments of my heart.—
The Enieror will evcr find in me his, best
friend. know what this act, commanded
by policy and
_exalted interests, has cost
his heart; but we both glory in the sacrifi
csi we make for the good, of our country.
I feel elevated in giving the greatest proof
of attachment and devotion that was ever
given on earth:"
Such were the sentiments that were ex
pressed in public. But in private Joseph
ine surrendered herself to the unrestrain
ed dominion of her anguish. No language,
can depict the intensity . of her . woe. For
six months she wept so incessantly . that her
•
eYes were nearly blinded with grief. Up
on the ensuing - day the council - were assem
bled in the grand saloon, to - witness the
'legal consummation of the divorce., The
..Emperor entered the roam dressed in the
Imposing robes ofstate,hut polid f careKtrornt
and wretched.:- Low tones of voice, bar.
moniziisg with the mournful scene, filled the
mow. Napoleon; iipart'byliirnielf, leaned
rigainst a pillar, folded histirms upon his
breast; and is perfect ,iiilenee,.apparcutly
lost in gloomy thought, remained motion
less ifs a statue. A circular table was pla
-ced in the centre of-the apartment, and up
on this there was a writing aparatus of
gold. A vacant arm-chair stood before
the. able. Never did 'a multitude gaze up
on a =Told, the block'or the guillotine,
with more awe than the assembled lords
and ladies in this gorgeous saloon content
,plated these instruments of a more dread
ful execution.
At. length the mournful silence was in
terrupted by the opening of a side door,
and the entrance of Josephine. The palor
of death was upon her brow, and the sub.
mission of despair nerved her into a tern.
porary calmness. She was leaning upon
the arm of Hortense, who, not possessing
the fortitude °flier mother, was entirely
unable tocontrol her feelings, but immali
ately upon , entering the room burst into
tears, and continued sobbing most convul.
sively. The whole assembly rose upon
the entrance of Josephine; all were moved
to tears. With that grace which ever dis
tinguished her movements, she advanced
silently to, the seat provided for her.—
Sitting down and leaning her forehead upon
her hand, she listened to the reading of the
act af separation. • Nothing disturbed tho
silence ,of the scene but the sobbing of Hor
tense, blending with the mournful tones of
the reader's voice. Eugene, in the mean
time, had taken a position by his mother's
side. Silent tears were trickling down the
cheeks of the Empress.
As soon as the reading of the act of sep
aration:was finished, Josephine for a mg)•
rnent pressed her handkerchief to her
weeping eyes, and then rising, in dear and
musical, but tremulous tones, pronounced
the oath of acceptance. She then sat down,
look the pen and affixed her signature to
the deed which surrendered the dearest
hopesanzLfoadest ties which human hearts
can feel. Poor Eugene could endure this
ilaaguage no longer. His brain reeled, his
heart ceased to beat, and he fell lifeless
_upon the flooi. Josephine 'and . Hortense
retired with the attendants, who bore out
the insensible • form of the affectionate son
and brother. It was a fitting termination
of this mournful but sublime tragedy—
; But the anguish, of the' day was not yet
over. Josephine, half deliriouslvith grief,
had another' cene still more painful to pass

J anuar,y_24th,
Dean Sir -Since my last letter to you.nothing
of Itifueual importance has occurred here. .1301 1 ..:
HObses'of the Legislature are now fairly started, .
and it is generally, expeeted that the butiitieee'of
,ttie State tkill'ba_speedily transacted. The State
Agricultural gonvention has
_adjourned, finally.—
A constitution ,vtras adopted for the future govern
ment of the Society. A memorial was also adopt._
ed to the Legislature; caking au Actuf incorpora
tion, and also a small appropriation to aid'in 61r
rying out the designs of the Convention. Officers
were elected for the ensuing year. Their names,
as Well as th(constittatiou memorial;youmill
find in the Hiiiisburg papers. " ' • ' "'
The Convention. was well attended, and exhib•
ited considerablezeal and talent. It left a favora
ble isitrireeeion on the meinbers of:t6e Legislature
and on the citizens here who attended its sittings.
The State Temperance Convention met here
yesterday, and adjourned today. Several coun
ties of Me State were represented. Hon. Gao. R.
McFeatsga, of Blair county, presided. The Hall
of the House . was voted to the Convention last
evening, and on' that occasion WAS. filled to over.
flowing. The ladies of Harrisburg, many of the
citizen; together with the Senators and Members,
made up quite a large and vespectable audieoce.-•
The Convention lied made arrangements to Asia
nisibmeakers for the occasion. The finsCistsus
very able and very.tengthy speech by' Istrt7lPh.m.
TON, of the. City of Philadelphia. .Alter becloud
bin remarks, a motion was made; las
"Mr. President, I move that the Hon.'Jeseph
Barker, Ex• Mayor of Pittsburgh, who is now pres•
ent, be requested to , address this Convention."—
This motion was received with a laugh, mingled
with a few cries of I3arkerlßarkerl Barker] The
whole subject was very coolly and very properly
disposed of by the President, who remarked "that
the Convention had made its own arrangements
to furnish speakery that evening; and if the audi
ence desired to hear Mr. Barker, the Convention
would adjourn and give them the use of the ball.'
Mr. Wtcscsnossin, of Lancaster County, Men
came for Ward and delivered a very able and elo•
quent 'address. While he was speaking, some
effort was made to get Barker over in. the Senate
Chamber, which finally succeeded. He was there
surrounded by a small crowd, and commenced
leaking a speech. But unfortunately fur, poor
Barker, just at this juncture, Senators Baociat end
SAVOLUSON entered the Hall, and immediately
inquired for the officers. The Sergeant-at• Arms
being absent, the dray of asking Joseph out de
volved upon his assistant. It is due to this of&
car to say that be performed his duty with "neat•
um and despatch." Joseph remarked as he left,
"that if they would come out be would make them
a speech that would make the very , brick and
stones shake." They went out and he told them
_—
a very few things, and wound up by sayinetbat
be was not well—that be was . going to PbitadeN,
phis, and would make the speech on his return."
Numerous petitions have been presented on dui
subject of "Free Bmiking..' This question, and
the Apportionment of the State into 'Judicial.
Districts, will be the moat important subjects of
the Session.
T4ete is art effort on foot to abolish the Revert..
tre Board, but it will certainly foil.
The Democratic - Cauras tool.•- the , proper view
of the difficulties existing at Present in the State
Central Conitnirtee. They concluded that they
had nu iorisdiction over the subject,. Pubtle
opinion is fast settling down on this question.—
Ilitere is no doubt that the- Judicial . Convention
will be held at Harrishorg, Tours, &c.

LIDWITS HI P a / a mt.—Ai political condemnation
has just taken place in Paris, which shows that tbe
judiciary of FranCia is completely subservient to the
despotic government which now MIMI there, ender
them= or ti Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity.”
'Cho following account of the matter is given,,by the
Paris certespondent of the liaticaral latelligencer:
ir A chemist of Paris and son (a student orniedi.
vine) were charged before the Court of Anises with
en airence against the person of the President of the
Republic, consistieg io the distribution of copies of
a plaster clot bearing the inscriptioe, " The Don.
tongue Oyster, 1840.” The caricature represented
a rock,.epon the CILDMit of which was displayed
largo gaping oyster. Within the shell appeared , the
caricatured likeness of M. Louis Napoleon .flona.
parte. Thera was , also a head with the enorineue
nose, the email eyes, the bushy moustache, and the
famous cocked hat either Emperor, *For the concep• ;
tine and distribution of this witless and harmless
piece of fite; the father and son Were sentenced each
two years , imprisonment, and 8600 fine. The de.
readmits , counsel begged a postponement of the trial,
to attend the bed of a dying father. it was refused;
the trial was ordered, and the tentenie pronOunead
without the intervention of a jury.
Hon. Jost D. Batom—Tho'hutiono State Senti
.
nel says of Senator Bright's re-election, most Justly:
" Bright is iedehtbd (bride election, morn than
anything else, to the bold and independent stand
which ho took in relation to the Comproinise meas.
urea of the last session of Congress. In the Meal.
ores that were adopted, end which we believe will
soon givd.priace and quiet to our most distracted
country, he was honored with a place alongside of
Mr. Ciay,Gen. Casa, Mr. 'Webster, filr:Dfekintiott,
and'other- distinguished statesm e n of the two great
political parties on the committee of thirteen, who
reported the measures to the Senate. It required
the nerve of a young Achilles, like Mr. Bright, to
sustain the sage counsellors who were connected
with him an that committee. Representing a young
and vigorous State, of a million of freemen, his
whole soul Wail thrown into the conflict."
Mr Seam attotuading developments have been
made in Boston relative to. the recent disappear
mice of a young girl, the daughter of a highly ree;
pectable abolitionist that city, named Brown.. It
appears the &Met bad_ exprested hiniself iod ifferent
as to whether his daughter married a white man or
a negro. She took him at his word, and a few wenke
since eloped with a black man, married him,and in
his company wont to the different dens in Ann street,
in one of which the WWI discovired, by an officer,
and carried to her father. `
_. She_ja now in the Luna
tic Asyluin. The:affair his been hashed up on ac.
count of the respectability of the-parties.
SMALL Drat-ea.—No man, says the Boston Tran
script, who is able to pay,- ought over to tray to a
poor man " call again," when the paimentol'a fkiw
dollars would anake his creditor and family comfort
able. This is sound morale. Delay , in payment
obliges the creditor tolose time in running after the
money, which is equivalent to so much value deify°.
ted from ilio debt. , Where the debt is of small
amount, two or three errands after it would cost to
the creditor more thanits,whole value. ,-, ;
Z If a woman doea not riceiii_e a compliment in
