. NAPOLEON'S HtOPHEC.
"Before fifty yeart," aid Napoleon (o Las
Gum, on day, at St. Helena, "Europe will
fee republican or Cossack. . .
Then, if my son is alive, he will be called
o the French throne, amidst the acclama
lions of the people. If h ta dea(1i
"will become a republio again 5 for no hand
would dare to grasp a sceptre which it could
not wield.
The branch of Orleans, though agreeable,
is too weak; it clings too much to the other
Bonrboni", and it will have the same fate, if
it does not prefer living as simple citizens,
whatever changes arrive.
' Once again France will be a republic, and
,otheT countries will follow her example.
Germans, Prussians, Poles, Italian, Danes,
Swedes and Russians will join her in a cm
wde in favor of liberty. They will arm
gainst their sovereigns, who will hasten to
make them concessions, in order to retain a
part of their nncient authority ; they will call
themselves constitutional kings, possessing
limited powers. Thus the feudal system
will receive hs death-blow; like the ocean
mist, it will vanish before the first ray of tho
sun of liberty.
But things will not rest there. The wheel
of revolution will not stop at that point its
impetuosity will increase five fold, and its
rapidity in proportion. When a nation re
covers part of its rights, it becomes enthusi
astic from victory, and having taMod the
sweets of liberty, becomes move enterprising,
in order to obtain more. The States of Eu
rope will be perhaps for some years in a con
tinual state of agitation, like the ground the
moment of an earthquake ; but at last the
lava breaks forth, and an explosion ends all.
The bankruptcy of Knglnud will be the
lava which will shake the world, devour kings
and aristocracies, and cement by its out
break the interests of democrats. Believe
me, Las Gisas, as the vines planted in the
ashes which cover the feet of Etna and Ve
suvius produce the most delicious wines, so
the tree of liberty will become immovable
when it has its roots in the revolutionary lava
which will overflow all the monarchies.
May it flourish forever! These sentiments
imay perhaps appear strange to yon, but they
.are mine.
1 was born a republican, but destiny and
ithe oppression of Europe made me an Einpe
iror." The Cholera is still on the decrease in
those places where it has raged so dreadful
ly. In Cincinnati there have been, from the
16th ult. to the 16th inst., 2475 deaths by
-cholera, of which nearly two thousand were
foreigners. The entire deaths for tho month
was 3618, making a daily average moitulity
-of 117. By the last accounts, 19th inst., the
interments were less than one hundred per
day. It had been nearly two hundred. In
;St. Louis, nlso, the pestilence seems to have
done its worst, and the nuirjber of interments
'has been reduced to eighty per day. Compa
red with those of 180 and 190, this is a very
favorable change. The deaths in St. Louis
since the 8th ol June, when the cholera
broke out, have been 5,537, of which 3,262
were by cholera. From the 1st of June to
the 9th of July, the reports show 3,484, deaths,
exhibiting, with its actual population of 54,000,
4 mortality of 61 in every 1000, or one out of
about sixteen, in six weeks. . In other places
in the South and West tho disease appears to
be dying away as rapidly as it grew in vio
lence. Liberty, without obedience, is confusion
Obedience, without Liberty, is slavery.

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER
"PREPARED and sold only, at FREDERICK
BROWN'S DRUG and CHEMICAL Store,
N. E. corner of Firm and Chxssvt streets, Phi
ladelphia. This Essence is warranted to possess
in a concentrated form, all the valuable properties
of Jamaica Ginger, and will lie found on trial an
excellent Family Medicine. It is particularly re
commended as a tonic, to persona recovering from
fever or other diseases, a few drops imparting to
the stomach a glow and vigor, equal to a wine
glass of brandy or other stimuland, without any of
the debilitating effects, which arc sure to follow the
use of liquor of any kind : and it ia therefore
especially serviceable to children and lemales. 1 o
the aged, it will prove a great comfort i to the
dyspeptic, and to those who are predisposed to
gout or rheumatic affections, it gives great relief;
and to the inebriate who wishes to reform, but
whose stomach is constantly craving the noxious
liquor, it is invaluable giving tono to the diges
tive organs, and strength to resist temptation ; and
is consequently a great agent in the cause Of tem
perance. I Full directions accompanying eacu

Attempted MxTRirtnR and SfietD.
The inmates of Rathlmn'a Hotel, in Broad.
way, were startled ltns mornitip, by a Acces
sion of loud screarhs issuing from tho cham
ber of Mrs. Rathbun, tho wife of the proprie
tor, and on entering the room, shn was found
lying on the floor, weltering in Mood, frdrn a
severe wound in the throat, inflicted .with a
razor by her son, who was near the spot,
also bleeding profusely frbih a woutk! in his
own throat; The partieulaiS, so far as we
could gather therPj are as follows :
Loomis Ruthban, tho attempted murderer;
is about 35 years of age, and has for some
time past led a most dissolute life, being
drunk the greuter part of Iho titno, and mix
ing with lbw and abandoned characters; all
the efforts of his frjPn(js t0 r,!Claim him
proved Iheflectualj mid his father finding
that a reformation Was hopeless, gave him
bp to his vicious courses; permitting him 'trt
livdat the hotel when ho felt disposed ; but'
little Was seen of him, ns ho was out most of
lhe day, anil found his way to his bed room
at nil hours of the niirht. For the past week
he h;i8 been on n drunken spree, and tho
dreadful act was doubtless perpetrate.! whilj
in a fit of delirium tremeiirj.
About 0 o'clock, tin's morning, ho appeared
at his mother's door, with a t-azorin his hand,
sayinjr, "Good-bye, mother," drew tho in
strument across his throat, inflicting a wound
on the left side of a severe, but not of a seri
ous character. His mother, in alarm, rushect
to him ami seized his hand, when ho turned
furiously upon lmr, and evclaimed, ;D 11
her, I'll kili her," and, throwing her down
on the floor, knelt upon her body and cut her
throat almost f:nm ear to ear.
Her cries were heard by one of tlie wai
ters, who ran to the room and fucceeded in
dragging tho son off the body, and secured
him until assistance arrived. A surgeon was
immediately summoned, who examined and
dressed the wounds; that of the man is not
of a serious character, but great fears are en
tertained that Mis. Kathlum will not recover,
and at the last accounts she was lying in a
very low state.
The son who is evidently insane, was pro-
perl
y secured, anil will be sent immediately
to the Insane Asylum to await the action of
the authorities in tho matter. .V. Y. Mirror.
