We cull the following items from the Pa ris correspondence of the New York Herald —they serve to give the reader a very correct idea, no doubt, of the true state of affairs of this Pseudo-Republic: " The following is a jeu d'esprit of M. Guizot, on the bayonet revolution effected by Louis Nspoi.cos: on the 2d of December. When told that Louis NAPOLEON was sup ported by 400,000 bayonets, he said, P‘ Very true, very true; one may be supported by bayonets, but no one can stand upon them." The Lon toot is as true as it is witty. for NAPOLEON himself acknowledged the insta bility of bayonets. He said there were but two powers, "the sword and the mind; but, in the.end, the latter always 'conquers the furmei." * * • te • As to politics, no one thinks of politics— tire lo hac , atelle is the universal watchword, i. e. " folly and nonesense forever, down with dirty politics." Those who want to know something about French politics, and the things going on here, are obliged to re fer to the English papers ; for nothing at all is known about these things in Paris. One might as well be in Kanaskatssa for aoy in sight into present French history. There fore you need not place much dependence on any letters from Paris professing to give you French news. The people of the United States—even the remotest farmers in Illi nois—know as much, and in some particu lars, more of present French history and po litics, than the people of France. All we know is that the Saviour of France conti nues to save France the trouble of thinking, and the papers, In consequence, are nut worth reading,•as they consist of nothing but flatteries of the Saviour of France and• the restorer of civilization, witkau unbound ed admiration of all his acts and measures. Some of the English papers, My influenced, follow in the same style." The fashionable mania for buying and 'Wearing French articles of dre.ss,io this coun try, is well rebuked in the following: . *" I have already mentioned what an ex. pensive place Paris is, especially for Ameri cans. Formerly the English were looked up on by the French as the rich people, and re gular pigeons for plucking, ;but now it is changed, and instead of calling every Eng •lishman'a Milord Angles's, they take every American to be a great personag e and a mil lionaire. And, to tell the truth, the Ameri cans keep up the character by their much greater liberality and freedom in expendi ture than the English. As to Paris goods, Paris clothes,.silks, shoes, Sec.. let me say a' few' words. It is a fully •in any of our New York people 6q send here to Paris for aiy of those things, as many' of them often do ; for certainly they can he got better and cheaper to Neiv York. I have been better fitted with ladies' bools and slippers at Jef fries, in New York, than I can be here in Paris. As to prices of silks, &c., I have bought them as cheap and as good at Stew art's and Beck's, in Broadway, as I can here; at least , the difference is very trifling. I think, in justice to New York tradesmen, the fashionable people in New York (the ' real Paris of America) ought to know all this, and be contented with the good things and moderate prices they have at home. B. HANNAN 0- CHEAP OCEAN POSTAGE. This subject was recently brought before the Senate by Mr. Susttan, on whose mo tion a resolution was adopted instructing the Committee on the Post-Office to inquire whe ther something may not be done for the re duction of the present high rates. The brief remarks with which he submitted ;he reso lution present a condensed and powerful ar gument : " A letter can be sent three thousand miles in the United States for three cents ; and the reasons for cheap postage on the land are equally applicable to the ocean. " In point of fact, the conveyance of let ters can be effected in sailing or steam-pack ets at less cost than by railway. "Besides, cheap ocean postage will i tend to supersede the clandestine or illicit convey etre of letters, and to bring into the mails all mailable , ma:ter which, under the present system, is carried in the pockets of passen gers, or in the bales and boxes of merchantsL " All new facilities for correspondence na turally give , new expansion to human inter course : and there is reason to believe thin, through an increased number of letters, cheap ocean postage will be self-supporting. " Cheap postal communication with for eign countries will be of incalculable impor tance to the commerce of the Udited States. "By promoting the intercourse of families and friends, separated by the locean, cheap postage will add to the sum of human.hap piness- " The present high rates 'of Ocean pos- Cage, namely, 24 cents on half an ounce, 48 ents on an ounce, and 96 cents on a letter which weighs a fraction More than an ounce, are a severe tax up . bn'all, particular ly upon the poor, amountin; in many cases to a complete prohibition of foreign corres pondence. This should not he so. " It particularly , becomes our country, by the removal of all unnecessary burdens upon foreign correspondence, to advance the com fort of European emigrants seeking a home among us, and to destroy, as fir as practica ble, every barrier to free intercourse between the Old World and the Neti. " And lastly, cheap Ocean Postage will be a bond of peace among the nations of the earth. and will extend good will among men." CHILD'S EVENING PRAYER.

DESECRATION OF THE SABBATH. The proper observance of the Sabbath, un der a Government dependent for existence upon the moral rectitude of its subjects, may well be watched with a jealous regard; and its desecration. by a large class of society, awakens fearful apprehensions on the part of many. An impressive discourse, having re ference to this subject.was recently deli7ered, before one of the large up-town churches, by the Rev. Dr. Adams. He remarked upon the growing tendency in this city to violate the Sabbath, .which he thought must be apparent to all. Many shops are open fur the sale, not merely of medicines, but for the ordinary ar 'Kies. of food, refection and apparel. Stands for vending unnecessary articles are multi plied in the streets, and it is but a short time since operas for Sunday evening entertain ment, were announced. Newspapers ate printed and sold, and this with, a publicity and noise painful to man citizens. The quiet of families and the sanet ty of public worship is interrupted by.martial music,by the display of military funerals, and various pageants of no religious tendency. When the season of the year invites, the rivers and bays are thronged by persons in search of recreation. The steam-whistle is heard more frequently in the streets, 30110U11- clog the arrival and departure of trains on the railroad. The' speaker reasoned that now is the time to decide the question whether these secularities shall becontinued and increased, or the Sabbathte saved from 'further desecra tion. It is easier io prevent than to remedy evils. Experience teaches that there is a proneness to become reconciled to evils which have been lung established, and great ques tions are allowed to g o by default. Moreover, the causes of this desecration are not likely ,io be lessened in time to come.Fjoods of immigrants are reaching our shores from those parts of the old world wherq-nnotions and habits prevail relative to, the observance of the Sabbath, more lax than our own. ' The speaker proceeded to show the reason ableness of the requirement that men should abstain from secular employments on the Sabbath, and to effect this end, be desired no compulsion, no legislative authority. He thought if a general sentiment could not be created by moral considerations in favor of the Sabbath. there was little prospect of se curing the observance of the day by any oth er means. If the Sabbath is ever to be uni versally honored, it could only be where the minds of the people feel the power of those reasons and motives by which it is sanction ed, and cheerfully acquiesce in their wisdom. National habits must he founded in national sentiments, and those sentiments must be formed by truth and wisdom. He then pro ceeded to mention some of those considera tions which should influence everreitizen to endeavor to promote a due observance of the Sabbath. It was also made an.object to es tablish the truth that the desolation of that day by secular avocations, universally tends to national demoralization, and that religion and christian morality are iheonly sure foun dation and guarantee of national prosperity. —N. Y. Journal of Commerce. EFFECT OF MONOTONY ON HEALTH "No man, for Any length of time, can pur sue one vocation, ur,orte train of thought without mental injury—nay, I will go far ther, without insanity. The constitution of the brain is such that it must have its tithe for repose. - Periodicity is stamped upon it. Nor is it enough. that it is awake and in ac tion by day. and in the silence of night ob. tains rest and repair, that the same period icity which beloiigs toil as a . whole, belongs, too, to all its constituent parts. .One portion of it cannot be called into incessant activity without a permanent hi jury ensuing. Its different regions, devoted to different func tions, lutist have their separate times for rest. The excitement of one part must be coincident with n pause in the action of an other. Ido not think it possible for mental equilibrium to be maintained with one idea or one monotonous mode of life. There is a necessity for men of great intel lectual endowments, whore minds are often strained - fp the utmost, to fall back on other pursuits, and (110'4 will always he that one seeks refuge Sin/the pleasures of quiet coun try life, another in travel, another in social amusements. Nay, with all en, even those whose lot has been cast in a there lowly con dition, whose hard destiny it i to spend their whole lives in pursuit of their daily bread ; with one train of thought, ana one unvary ing course of events, what woiild become of them if it were not for such' a,_principle as this ? Men often say that thtipleasures of religion, and of a christian_ fafih, are wholly prospective,and to be re)lized Only in another world. In this they make a mistake: for these consolations conanience even here, .and temper the bitterness of fate. The virtuous laborer, though he may be ground down with the oppressions of his so cial condition. is not without his relief': at the anvil, the loom,or even the bottom of the mine, he is leading a double existence— the miseries of the body find a contrast in the calm of the soul—the warfare without is compensated by the peace within—the night of life here serves only to brighten the glo ries of the prospect beyond. Hope NI the daughter of despair. And thus a kind Pro vidence so overrules events, that it matters_ not in what elation it may ;be—wealthy or poor, intellectual or lowly—a refuge is al ways at hand, and the mind worn out with one thing, turns to another, and its physical excitement is followed by physical repose. WASTIINGTON'S Beautifully situated on the banks of the Pamunsley, is the mansion known as the " Whitt Howe." It stands on the site of the one in which Washington was monied. From Custis's Life of Mrs. Martha Wash ington. we extract the account of his cciutt ship and marriage : " It was in 1758 that Washington, attired in a military undress, and attended by a body servant, tall and militaire as his chief, crossed the ferry called William's, over' the Rimunkey, a branch of the York River.—. On the boat touching the southern or Drew Kent side, the; soldier's progress was j ar rested by car of those personages who gives the beau ideal-01 the Virginia gentleman of the old regime, the very soul of kindness ind hospitality. It was in vain that the Sol dier urged his ; business at Williamsburg, itiaportant communications to the Governor, bre. Mr. Chamberlayne, on whose domain the militaire badlost landed, would hear of no excuse. Col. Washington was a name and character so dear to all • Virginians, that his passing by one of the castles of Vir ginia, without callio' and partaking of the hospitalities of the Eost, was entirely out of the question. The colonel, however, did not surrender at discretion, but stoutly main tained his ground, till Chamberlayste, bring iog up the reserve,. in the intimation that he would introdUce his mend to a young and charming widow, then beneath his roof; the soldier capitulated, on condition that he should dine—and then, by pressing his char ger, and borrowing of the night, he would teach Williamsbur; before His Excellency' could shake aff his morning. sl u m ber L — Orders were accordingly issued to • Bishop, the colonel's body servant and faithful fol lower, who, together , with the English char ger had been bequeathed by the dying Brad dock to Major Washington, on the famed and fatal field of Monongahela. Bishop, bred in the school of,European raised his handle his cap, as much as to say. Yourorders. shall be obeyed." The colonel now, proceeded to the man sion, and was introduced to various guests (for whets was 'a Virginia domicil of the olden time without guests?) and above all, to the charming widow. Tradition relates ME gt i °gulp Ven I. AND MARRIAGE. 111 AL, that they were mutually pleased, on this, their first interview—nor is it remarkable They were of an age when impressions are strongest. The lady was fair to behold, of fascinating manners; and splendidly endow. id with worldly benefits. The hero was fresh from his early fields, redolent of fame, and with a• form on which " every god did seem to set his seal, to give the world as surance of a man." The morning passed pleasantly away, eve ning came, With Bishop,,true to his orders, and firm at his post, holding the favorite charger with one hand while the other was waiting to offer: the ready stirrup. The sun sunk in the horizon, and yet the colo nel appeared not. '• 'Twas strange, 'twas passing strange ;" surely he was not wont to be a. single moment behind his appoint ments—for he was the moat punctual of all Men. Meantime. the host enjoyed the scene of the veteran at the gate, while the colonel was sa'agreeably employed in the parlor : andliroclaiming that no visitor ever left his home at sunset. his military guest was, without a much difficulty,.persuaded - to order Bishop to put up the poise fur the night. The sun rode high in the heavens The en suingday, when the enamored soldier press ed spur his charger's side, and speeded on his way ;.to the seat of govern ment, where having dispatched his public business, he retraced his steps, and, at the White House, the engagement took place, with preparations for marriage. And much hart the biographer heard of that marriage, from the gray-haired domes tics who waited at the board where love made the feast, and \Vashington the guest. And rare 'and high was the revelry at that palmy 'period of Virginia's festal age for many were gathered to that marriage of the good, the great, the gifted, and they, with joyful acclamations, haiied in Virg inia's .youthful hero, a happy and prosperous bride groom. " And so you remember when Col. Wash ington came a courting- your .young mis tress ?" said the biographer to old Cully, iu his hundredth year. ; " Ay, master, that I do," replied the ancient family servant, who had lived to see five generations ; " great times, sir, great times—shall never see the like, again !" " And Washington looked something like a man—a proper man—hey, Cully ?" " Never seed the like, sir—never the like of him, thought I have seen many in my day—so tall, so straight ! and then lie sat on a horse and rode with such an air! Ali,' sir, he was like Ito one else. Many of the grandest aentlemen; in the gold lace, were at the wedding; . but none looked like the man himself." Strong, indeed, must have been the im pression which the. person and nianoar of Washington wade upon the rude, untutor ed mind" of this poor negro, since the !Apse of three-quarters of %century had not suf ficed to efface it. The precise date of the marriage the bi ographer has been unable to discover—hav ing in vain searched the record.; of the ves try of St. Peter's Church, New Kent, of which Rev. Mr. Munson, a Cambridge scholar, was the rector, and performed the ceremony, it is believed, about` 1756. A short time alter their marriage, Col. and Mrs. Washington removed to Mount Vernon, on the Potomac, and pertiraneitlir settled there. • " This unktri." - says Sparks, " was in. eve ry respect felicitous. It continued forty years. To her intimate acquaintances, and to the nation, the character of Mrs. Wash ington was ever a theme of praise. Affa ble and corteous, exemplary in her deport ment, remarkable for her deeds of chanty and piety, unostentatious, and without van ity, she adorned by her domestic virtues the sphere of private life, and filled with digni ty every station in which she was placed. Previous to his acquaintance with Mrs. Custis, Washington. had been pleased with other ladies. The author above quoted on this point says, that in 1756, "-While in New York, he was lodged and kindly en tertained at the house of Mr. Beverly Rob inson, between whom and himself an inti macy of friendship subsisted, which, indeed, continued without : change, till severed by their opposite fortunes twenty years after wards in the revolution. It happened that Miss Mary Philips,:a sister of Mrs. Robin son, and a young lady of rare accomplish ments, was au inmate of the family. The charms of this lady made a deep impress ion upon the heart-of the Virginia colonel. He went to Boston, returnedrand`was again welcomed to the hospitality of Mi. Robin son. He lingered there till duty rifled him away ; but lie was careful to ,intrust his secret to a confidential friend, whose letters kept, him informed of every important event. Ia a few months intelligenee'came that a rival was- in the field, and that the conse miencea could not be answered for it' he de layed to renew his visits to New York.— W,hether time, the bUitle of camp. or the scenes of war had moderated his admira tion, or whether he despaired of success, is nut known. He never saw the lady again till she was married to that same rival, Capt. Morris, his associate in arms, and one of Braddock's aids-de-camp. " He had before felt the influence of the tender passion. At the age of seventeen he was smitten by the graces of a' fair one, whom he called a " lowland beauty," and whose praises he recorded in glowing strains While wandering with his surveyor's com pass among the Allegheny mountains. On that occasion he wrote desponding letters to a friend, and indicted plaintive verses, but never ventured to reveal his emotions to-the lady who was unconsciously the cause of his pains." -- SLEEPING NORTH AND SOUTH. It is contended by scientific writers, that to sleep sound at night, and be treed Dom -all nervous disturbance, one must place his bed with the foot to the South, and !Re head due North. The reason assigned for this is that both the earth and the human body are alike mag nets , and that when' the body is laid out due North and South, with the head North the magnetic currents of the earth and the body will- harmonize. It 'is an easy matter to make the experiment. We have heard men say recently, who have tried it, that the doc trine is sound, and there is something in the theory. The following brief articleis horn an Ohio . paper:' THE SCIENCE OF GOING TO BED.—The earth: is a rnagtiet,with magnetic currents constant ly around it. The human body is also a mag net, and when the body is placed in a certain relation to the earth :hese currents hirmonise —when in any other position they conflict. When one position is to be maintained for some time: a position should be chosen in which the magnetic currents of the earth and the body will not conflict. The position, as indicated . by the theory, and known. by' ex periment. is to he with the head towards the North pole. Persons who sleep with their heads in the opposite direction. or lie cross-wise, are liable to tall into various. disorders. When they go back to the nght position these dis. orders, it not too deeply impressed in the con stitution, soon vanish. Sensitive persons are always more refreshed by sleep when their heads point due North. ' Architects is planning houses should bear this principle in mind.

HISTORY OF EDUCATION. / eo. 'The perseverance and zeal of Charles the Great, in establishing schools, *hose influ ence Might reach the people, and elevate their condition, were referred to in my last article. These wise arrangements of Charles, togeth er with the political regulations and laws, which emanated from him, as the supreme ruler of a vast extent of territory and.of a numerous population, all the most import ant nations of Europe haiing been then un der his dominion, exerted a powerful infiu. ence,on subsequent historical events. • And, although these efforts were only a small be ginning of what has taken place since, and of what will be done, in a very short time, among all civilized nations, still, where do we find in all antiquity, previbus to the Christian era, the thought of educating the people ever enterteined for a moment I -This idea belongs entirely to our modem civilization, and is the daughter of Christi anity;. The ante-Christian civilization, rest ing upon an exclusive , autocratical basis, shutting out the light of heaven from the mass, and tying them down to hopeless ig norance, was incapable even of conceiving' such .a vast .and philanthropic idea, as we behold rising gradually out of the modern civilization, increasing in importance every year; and destined finally so bring to its de fence and care the strongest men of the age. And who can withstand the enchanting in fluence, brought to bear upon one's mind, in contemplating the mighty significaoie that lies buried in this great thought s pregnant with the most important events the world has eves witnessed, or the historian has ever transmitted to posterity. The monarch may enjoy his pride upon his lofty throne, and re vel in the luxury whick.his wealth affords him,: or aught I care. The satisfaCtion and the cheering pleasure with which I am filled, in reflecting upon the great influence, which my position, as a teacher, throws into my hands, enhances the teacherhere of life, in my estimation, far Ogee , ttuse s alue of the most costly crown wortighe' any 'European sovereign. " We are then, beyond all doubt; ler in ad vance of antiquity, iu regard to one of the most interesting features of civilization. t meal) general intelligence. The ancient Per sian kings gave their own sons some kind of an education ; and Cteestis, the Lydian mon arch; took pleasure in inviting learned men to court, for the purpose of gratifying his own vanity. Athens and Corinth, the lights of Greek philosophy and literature, were celebrated for their wise men, eloquent , orators, and sagacious statesihen ; but every where the people were allowed to remain in ignorance. This idea of a universal diffu sion- of knowledge, whose celestial origin has already been mentioned, has been felt in modern civilization alone; and the history of its struggles and conflicts', duriogeshe course of its past developements, carriesi w ith it the highest interests of humanity, affording, at the same time,the most conclusive testimony in favor of the triumphs, which-it now pre dicts to the world. These struggles showed thentselves during its earliest history. The extensive plans of Charles, owing to the cir cumstances of his times, could not be carried out fully even while he himself yet' lived ; and during the political commotions and con tinued conflicts, which occurred in the reigns of his immediate successors, all progress, for the time being, was not. only checked, but most of the numerous schools which had been established by Charles, throughout his whole empire, and which were most nu merous in Germany, were almost entirely swept away by a resistless torrent of politi cal commotions. The only surviving son of Charles was declared Emperor by his lather, Mit did not possess the sane abilities which the founder of theetnpire had display ed. The nations which had been controlled successtully by the father, could not be held in subjection by the pious and good-natured, but weak Louis I. That lofty intellect, which is a necessary qualification to fit one for governing, was not found in him. The un finished arrangements of Charles could be completed only. by a successor equal in abili ty to himself, and the work of improving or perfecting what was yet deficient in the po litical atrangements themselves, needed one . of still greater wisdom and abilities. Louis" I. could not understand the object and signifi cance of what his father had commenced,, and hence we must lament over the state of affairs which succeeded the times of Chatles. The course and movements of the world historic stream are not always - such as 3p pear to men the Wisest and most desirable.— Just as throughshe sudden death of Alexan der, and afterwards of Csesar, all the acts of these great men seem to have been perforiti ed in Vain; so also did the excellent--arrange ments, which the energetic Charles had ef fected, terminate with- his death, and give place to the most melancholy confusion,— The-inheritor of the imperial throne, Louis 1., who bore the surname of Pius, Was In deed. a pious, good-hearted and even learned man, having had every advantage which schools could afford, but he waa no king.— His timid and Wavering conduct deprived him in a short time, of all respect ; and the,. other princes, who had been kept so success-' fully in submission to proper authority by, his fathei, - soon took advantage of his weak-, Hess and exalted themselves ISbove him.-- - Conflict and confusion followed, of course,, as a: natural consequeace. in order to seek relief and assistance, he divided his large do 'minions, in the early part of his reign,among his own three sons. But these soon rose in rebellion against their oivn father, ancfghis, additional calamity brought the unfortuegte Louiel. with a broken heart into the grave. All these unhappy commotions and conten tions for power, were, of course, unfavora ble to popular - education. The decline of religiom it] the church, had nd leas influence io bringing about such a sad state of things. The education of the clergy and of the higher classes' did, there fore, only receive any degree of attention, while that,of the poorerpeople was entire ly neglected. Au unsettled government is no less destructive to the interests of the peo ple than a had ones The common people were, also, at that time, of no political sig nificance, and consequently nothing was done for their general education by the gov nerment, unless wise and benevolent rulers were in power. Such a Prince was Charles the Great, but his successors were not equal ly great, magnanimous 'or wise, and hence did not carry on what lie had commenced ; and the people were unable to see where lay their true interest, nor had they strength to ask for what they needed. It must, however, not be supposed that the zealous efforts of Charles, and the insti tutions founded by him, were powerless on succeeding events. Although most of his schools were crippled and closed during the wars which were carried on soon after his death, and during the contentions between Louis I. and his sons ; still the seed, which had' been sown 'in Aleuin's School, and by the - labors of his pupils carried into different parts of Europe, was not scattered upon an entirely barren soiE All those great and sig. niaiant ideas, by which a newsebaunel lis dug out for the stream Of the world's histo ry, and by which historic events are made to • asstime a character entirely different from what they bore before, infuse themselves gradually into the elements of civilization. and produce their final results only after . a developing process of centuries.. So it is,al so,svith this idea.of educating the mass. It. grew out of the teachings of Him "who spoke as man never did;" it was proclaimed at first by,n few obscure and humble men; it pushed' itself into notice gradually in small commu nities ; it reached, by' , degrees, thes s proud throne,, and has now become one of the most impor:ant problems of the age. It was not the fruit of individual thinkers, neither could it, therefore, be suppressed by any human actions. Charles the Great did not s Ef-iforce it upon , his subjects, but the idea itself htul already acquired such strength, that it con strained him to reverence it. Mini in civil authority, do not always yield to its call';' merely because they love it, but because they must. No human authority can bend - the stream of historic events, nor frustrate the' designs of Him, who rules the moral world as well as the world of nature. NO. 14.
