of furinaceous substances, and is an important addition
to the national bill of fare. It may be cooked in all the
forms menlioned above, and many more which 309 d
housewives will readily discover. It is manufactured
from the choicest white Southern Corn, and put up in
pound packages, with directions for use. The water
used in the process of production is obtained from natu
ral springs. and is quite free from the impurities that
always contaminate streams gathered from hill-sides and
(lowing on the earth’s surface for longdistanees. Hence
its whiteness. It is a. choice item for dessert and the

, Proposals will he received for the delivery of said or
ticles at Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
New Orleans, St. Louis, Memphis, or Cincinnati; but
the cost of the transportation of the same to their places
of destination will be considered in deciding upon the
proposals in cases where the some articles shall be pro
posed to be delivered at difl'erent places.
Goods of American manufactureof the required styles
and quality will be preferred; but as the samples of
blankelsond cloths are foreign fabrics, it will be neces
sary, in proposing a domestic article of either of those
kinds, that a sample thereof shall accompany the bid.
Sample guns and powder horns must also be furnished,
from which the Departmentwill make it selection ; and,
in case of more thnnone sample being furnished by the
some bidd- r, the price for each must be distinctly indi
cated in the. bid. The commissioner reserves the right
to decline taking any guns and powder horns, or more or
less than are advertised for, as he may deem proper.
The articles to be furnished must in all respects con
form to and be equal with the Government samples,
which may be seen at this emce. They will be rigidly
inspected and compared. with those sen-plea by an agent
or agents appointed for that purpose. Such as may be
unequal thereto in any particular will be rejected; in
which case the contr Actor will be bound to furnish
others of ther equircd kind or quality wi thin three days;
or, if that. be not done, they will be purchased at his ex
pense. Payment will be made for the goods received on
invoices thereof. certified by the agent or agents ap
pointed to inspect them. ,
ltis to be understood that the right will be reserved
to require a greater or loss quantit y of any of the arti
cles named than that specified in the above schedule;
and all bids for furni<hing said articles may be rejected
at the option of the Department; and that pone from
persons who have failed to comply with the require
ments of a. previous contract with the United States, or
who are not manufacturers or wholesale dealers in the
required articles, will be considered ; and the {not that
bidders are such mnnufecturers or dealers must be evi
denced by the certificate of the collector of the port
other: they reside, or where it is proposed to deliver the
ar 1c es. .
The proposals must embrace the articles, wilh‘ the
quantities thereof, as they are arrangedin the schedule,
with the prices annexed to such in dollurs and cents at
which they are to be furnished, and the amounts must
be carried out and footed up for each class. Said prices

THE SISTER 01‘ THE FRENCH EMPRESS
The death of the Duchess d‘Albe has given
a terrible shock to the family of the Empress;
much united, and, in spixeot‘ the high position
to which the fairest. scion' of the house of
Monlijo has arrived, until now but seldom
separated. The nnture of the illness with
which the Duchess was afflicted rendered from
the first all hope of recovery doubxful, and for
the last. month she was wavering between life
and death. The crisis. which took place du
ring the stay of (he Empress a}. Euux Bonnes,
was decisive. From that crisis she never ml-
lied, and remained prostrate and almost inani
mate, scarcely to be called in life, thereafter.
The Emperor, who had been apprised by tele
graph, while at Marseilles, of the inevitable
approach of the fatal catastrophe, had wisely
urged the deparmre of the v Empress from
France, lest She should be called to attend her
sister’s dying moments. The sea, with all its
inconvenience and trying. was far less to he
dreaded than the moral client of the sad event
to which the Empress would have been com
pulsorily a witness had she returned Io Blar
ritz according to her intention. This, the
most lerrible_trial in human life, has been
avoided, at all events ; and time, the sole, sure
soother of human grief; will have done much
towards restoring the calm of her Majesty’s
mind before her return. ‘
_ Few people have left inure regret to their
circle of friends among whom life has been
spent than the Duchess d’Albc. ,The slory «:f
the rivalship in love with one for whom she
was willing, when the truth became known, to
sacrifice her own happiness, but, who refused
with equal ge'nerosity to accept. the sacrifice, is
well known at. Madrid. The Due d’Albe was at.
the time Ihe most elegant and brilliunt. of all
the cavaliers of the Cuurt of Spam, and sought,
for his high name and goodly estates as much
as for his own personal qualities by every
family in Madrid. It was soon beheld, how
ever, where his affections had been fixed. as he
was seldom a. day without. paying a. visit. to the
mansion of Madame Moulijo, and was soon
established in gossip talk as the suitor of one
or other of the young ladies belonging to the
family.
For a. long time, not even gossip could point
out the favored one, sojeqnnlly were the Duke’s
attentions in public divided amongst them all.
It was one of the most pleasant sights in Mad
rid to behold the highly decorated box at the
opera belonging to Madame M ontijo occupied
by the bevy of beauties, of divers style, com
plexion and age, which the family at that time
could boast, sitting in front; and behind them,
standing in a row, the various pretenders to
their preference. Madrid could tell at» a glance
for whom was intended the murderous attempt
at a conquest which had evidently oecasmnei
the arming in embroidered cravats and white
kid gloves, with all manner of glittering orders
at the buttonhole, beneath which after the
manner of men in general, the pretenders vgre

remained inscrutable. Meanwhile one heart
do 6:
was sinking with hope deferred, and the uncer
tainty which in love is mortal; and each hour
increasing this indecision, became one of the
most sickening agony to the fair girl, whose
vigilance could detect no preference either for
herself or for any one in particular amongst.
her companions in the Duke’s assiduities, so
equally were they distributed amongst all.—
Sne was of too bold and decisive acharacter to
submit forany length of time to this unprofit
able torturing of the soul.
A grand but masque was given by the Queen.
She resolved that'this occasion—which is al
ways considered one wherein the greatest
freedom of speech is permitted—should put an
end to the uncertainty which was eating her
very heart away. Alone of the. family she
excused herself from attendance at the ball.
Aidedin her romantic scheme by an aunt to
whom she was much attached, she feigned in
disposition. and retired to bed before her com
panions had departed for the palace; no suspi
cion was theretore aroused. t
‘ When the family carriage had driven from 3
the door, she rose, and disguising herself in a
long black domino, instead of the brilliant
mythological costume which had been prepared
for her, she proceeded to the palace under the
escort of her aunt. In the midst of the splen
did scenes which burst upon her vision as she
entered the great ballroom but one thought
occupied her mind— she beheld but one object
nmung the highly decorated crowd which swayed
to and fro in the dance. It was the Due d’Albe,
whose costume she knewht once, it having been
chosen for him at a general conclave in the
Montijo salon some little while before. She
1 soon managed to thread her way towards where
‘ he stood, talking eagerly, as was his wont, to
1 one of the ladies of the Montijo family. But.
‘ she feared notrecognition; and pulling him by
‘ the sleeve, asked him, in the shrill but masque
tone adopted on like occasions, whether he
would fear to dance with one who had come to
the ball with no other purpose than that of
treading one single measure with the hero of
the night, the gallant “Don John of Austria”
—-which~was the character :he Duke had as
sumed, and in which he was the observed of
all observers.
Borh his real and assumed character urged
him to compliance with a. lady’s wish, and im
mediately turning from the group of friends
With whom he was conversing he. gnllnmly of—
fered his hand to lhe domino, and led her, with
a. compliment, to the quadrille just then form
ing beneath the middle chandelier of the great
gallery. Can you not fancy how the heart of
that young girl must have beat. as. determined
to attain the object for which she had run this
risk, she whirpered in her partner’s ear Words
of deep meaning. upon which her whole future
life was hung? Can you not. tancy how that
stricken heart musthave falter-ed when the words
of truth, bright with his unstained 11011013. fell
from the lips of the duke ?' ”(the first time,
perhaps, the name or the real 0'33"" 0‘ 111510“
was breathed by him. It "is lhe eldestdaugh.
tor of the C- untess do MonflJO to whom he was
devoted, and to her was 150 resolved to disclose
the secret. on this very MEM- No hope could
therefore remain to 'hefiuhflppy victim who
had sought the secret- which was to be her own
condemnation. She Wlt-hdl‘ew from the ball.—
What had she to Bgek further amid that gnv
throng? She hurried home and flupg herself
in despair upol‘l “If. couch she had left. but, to
seek the despall' mth which the years of her
future life were to be embittered.
At dawn the ladies returned from the ball.
All were glad and joyous—but one above the
rest ; and she could not resist the temptation
to seelf her best friend in order to make her
perticipate in the joy which the Duke’s propo-
SmOn had inspired. She entered soflly! for
she thought her friend this sleeping. She ap

retired for slumber in nightcap and hedge“,
lying now outside the eoverlet, wrapped in I.
black domino, with the mask she had worn ton:
violently from her face and clutched, with con
vulsive pressure, in her hand. She called
aloud, but no answer was returned. In another
moment she perceived, even by the light of the
moon, which streamed in at the chamber win--
dow, that the form was insensible which lay
before her, and that the features were working
as if in the throes of the death agony.
The house was aroused, and the family came
in haste to the bedside to behold-with horror
the confirmation of the suspicion which had
struck them from the very fi'rst. Assistance
had only just come in time—the evidence which.
lay before them, in the shape of the empty vial
and its warning label, indicated the nature of
the antidote to be administered. Every help
was given, and after awhile all efl'ect of this
moment’s abberntion had passed away, even t 6
the moral regret of heholding the Duke the hus—
band of another. The generous impulse of the
bride elect contributed most of all, they any. to'
this desired consummation; for not till she was
assured that the despair ofunrequited love was ‘
entirely overcome would she consent to leave
her friend and to accept the highest mine and
fortune in all Spain. Such is the story told in
the chronicles of Madrid, and many people in
Paris, who are intimate with all the parties
concerned, have confirmed it oft and oft. The
relaxed nerves of the countenance, tl'te quiveri
ing eyelids of the heroine of the title—herself
tt. happy wife and mothernow—are often quoted
to bear witness of its truth ; and we give it in
testimony of the generous nature of the Duchess,
as well as of the strength of mind which ena
bled her friend to forego the selfish indulgence
in hopeless sorrow, which would have blighted
both existences forever.
EUROPE IN 1871.-‘—A clever little philosopher
of the last ceuiury (says Notes and Qua-ice), the
Abbe Galiari, amused himself on the 27th of”
April, 1771, wilh writing to his lriend Madame
d’Epiny, from Naples, a sketch of “Europe as
it would he in a. hundred years.” The oohjec
ture of a wit east at random, sometimes hits
nearer the mark than might have been antici
pated. As only len years are now wanting to
the period of fulfillment, it may be as well to
know the fate which. acc%iog to the Abbe,
awaits us :—“ln 100 years c shall resemble
the Chinese much more than we do at present.
There will be two very distinct religions—the
one that of the higher and better cluases; the
other that. of the people, which will be divided
between three- or four sects, living on toleruhly
good terms with each other Priests and monks
will be more numerous than they are now——
moderately rich, ignored and tranquil. The
Pope will be nothing more than 'on illustrious
bishop, and not is sovereign. They will have
paraded away all his temporal dominiOnsi‘bit”
by bit. There will be large regular armies :on
foot, and but little fighting. The troops will
perform admirably on parade” but neither
officers nor soldiers will be fierce or brave—
they will wear rich uniforms, and thatis all.
The chief sovereign of Europe will be the mon
arch of our Tutors—that is' to say, the prince
who will possess Poland, Russia. Prussia, and;
commandlhe Baltic and the Black Seas, for
the nations of the north will always remain less
cowardly than those of the south. The remain

—A Shy-curd Business opcration.-——Delect-ive of
ficer Smilh,nt o. lute hour on Friday night,
took into custody a German named Henry
Lowe, who stands accused of having porpetra.
ted one of the most. successful swindles-lately
heard of in business circles. The gamut. of
money lost by his system of operations is over
$lOO,OOO, and the modus operandi of liis pro
ceedings only goes to show how easy it is for
even the shrewdest and most calculating men
to full victims to the designs of the numberl'ess
smart rogues with which the community is in
fasted. .
Threezyears ago, Lowe, who is then supposed
tovhave commenced his criminal career, hired
an office in Beaver street, fitted it up in the
best of style, procured us his clerk a. gentlemen
in whom all reliance could be placed, and im
mediately cultivated the acquaintance of well
known brokers. Among those whom he had
selected for fleecing was L. Van Holi'mun & 00.,
bankers, of No. 6 Hanover street, and to Ihem,‘
as well as others, he sold numerous genuine
bills of exchange on the Colonial B ml: of
Demeram, W. 1. His dealing in the genuine
article continued for some time, and at lust he
had gained the entire confidence of all who had
transacted business with him. When a solid
foundation for the future had been laid, he be
gun to sell bogus bills, and in u very short. time
had succeeded in raising $lOO,OOO. This was
deposited in the St. Nicholas Bank, and allowed
to remain there for three days, when the whole
sum in gold was withdrawn by Lowe. who im
metllntely absconded. His confidential clerk,
who believed everything to be l'lghl, could not
imagine what had become of hint, or any rea
son tor his disappearance ; but in a very short
time the mystery was cleared up by thereceipt
of inlm‘matitm that the last and heaviest bills
on the Colonial Bank were forged, and that in
consequence. those who had bought them ware
swindled.—-N. I’. ExpreSt of Saturday.
