The alliances which I contract is not in accord
with the traditions of ancient policy—and there
in is it. advantage France, by its successive
rovolutions, has ever abruptly separated from the
r,-st of Europe. Every wise government ought
to toy to make it re-enter the pale of the old mon
arellies But this result will be more surely
att. aiw al by a straightforward and frank policy,
by loyalty in conduct, than by royal alliances,
which create a false security, and often substi

M..reorer, the example of the past has left in the
t eitt •l. of the people superstitious feelings. It
'lot been forgotten, that f or 711 y ears f o r e i gn ,
princesses have not mounted the throne, but to
behold their race deposed and proscribed by war
or by revolution One woman alone seemed to
bring happiness, and to live more than the others
in the memory of the people—and that woman,
the modest and good wife of Gen Bonaparte, was
lit the issue or royal blood It must, however,
'••• admitted. that in 1811), the marriage of Napo
•• •n I with Maria L mow was a great event It
waa a for the tuturr, a real satisfaction to
the nate•ted pride, as the aueleut and illustrious
brouch of the bauae of .lustria, who had been so
low, at war with us, was seen to solicit the alli
alive of the elected chief of a new empire. Un
(b•r the last reign, on the contrary, the amour
/„,pre, of the country had to suffer, when the
leer to the crown solicited, fruitlessly, during sev
eral years, a princely alliance, to obtain it only
in a secondary rank and in a different religion.

$1 50 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE.
ERIE, SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 29,1855,
by mystematic, uninterrupted occurrence, have
conducted to the Imperial throne of one of the
greatest nations of the earth, the dew:mutant of a
bereaved, honaeleita,'wratehed fugitive from the
last battle Geld within the limits of s British
Territory.
"I'll not live in this way!" exc l atne d M rs
Lyon, passionately. "Snob duiorder, wrangling
and irregularity, rob me of my peac e , an d ma k,
the house a bedlam, instead of a quiet home.—
Tom!" she spoke sharply to a bright little fel
low who was pounding away with a wooden ham
mer on a chair, and making • most intolerable
din, "stop that noise this instant! And you
him, not a word more from your lips. If you
can't live in peace with your sister, I'll separate
you D'ye hear? bush! this instaut!"
"It's oo snob thing, I havu't," retorted Julia.
"You have," I say."
"I tell you I havn't."
"Will you hashr" the face of Mrs. Lyon was
fiery red, and she stamped upon the floor as she
spoke.
"I want my pincushion Make Julia give me
my pincushion. "
Irritated beyond control, Mrs. Lyon caught
Julia by the arm, and thrusting her hand into
her pocket drew out a knife, a piece of lace and
a penknife.
"I told you it wasn't there! t!ouldn't you be
lieve me?"
This impertiuenee was more than the mother
could endure; tiod, acting upon her indignant
impulses, she boned the ears of Julia soundly,
conscious at the same time that Emily was chief
ly to blame for all this trouble, by a wrong ac
cusation of her sister; she turned upon her, also,
administering an equal punishment. Frightened
by all this, the younger children, whose incessant
noise for the last half hour, bad contributed to
the overthrow of their mother's temper, became
suddenly quiet, and skulked away into corners;
%lid the baby, that was seated on the floor be
tween two pillows, curved her quivering lips,
and glanced fearfully up at the distorted face in
in which she bad be " u used to s e e the lov e li g ht
that made her heaven.
A deepquiet followed this bttrst of melon like
the hush which succeeds the storm. Alas,
for the evir trat:es that were left Whin I: Alas,
tor the repulsive image of that mother, daguer
eotyped in an instant on the memory of her chit
tlren, and never to be effaced. How many, many'
times, in after years, will not a sigh heave their
bosoms, as that painful reflection looks out upon
them from amid the dearer remembrance of
childhood
A woman with good impula , w, but with scarre
ly any self control, w.is Mrs Lyon. She loved
her children, and desired their good. That they
showed little forbearance one with the other,
manifested .0 little fr.iternal affection, grieved

Mrs, Lyua deeply depressed ha spirits, as well as
discouraged, retired from hp family to grieve
and weep. Lilting the frightened baby from the
floor, she drew its head tenderly against her bo
'bosom, and leaving the nursery, sought the qui
et of her room. There in repentance and
she recalled the stormy scene, through
which she had Juit passed, and blamed herself
for yielding biwdly to p Lw.1.41, instead of meeting

To Wei ping, calmness succeeded Stall, she
was perplexed in mind, and grieved at her own

aright.' did she feel her own unfit
ness for the 144 Hy this time the baby was
asleep, anti the mother felt something of that
tranquil peace that every true mother knows,
when a young babe. is slumbering on her bosom
A book lay on the adell, near where she was
sitting, and Mrs Lyon scarcely conscious of the
act, reached out her Land for the volume. Bhp
opened, without feeling any interest in its con
tents, but she had read only a few sentences
when this remark arrested her attention:
"All right government of children begins with
self government."
The words seemed written for her, and the
truth expressed was elevated instantly into per
ception. She saw it in the clearest light, and
closed the book and bowed her head in sad ac
knowledgem'-nt of her own errors. Thus for
some time she had been sitting, when the mur
mur of voices from below grew more and more
distinct, and she was soon aroused to the painful
fact, that as usual, when left alone, the children
were wrangling among themselves. Various
noises, as of pounding on, and throwing about
chairs and other pieces of furniture, were heard,
and at length a loud scream, mingled with angry
vociferations, smite upon her ears.
Indignation swelled instantly in the heart of
Mrs. Lyon, hurriedly gluing at the sleeping baby
in its crib, she started for the scene of disorder,
moved by an impulse to punish severely the
young rebels against authority, and half way
down the stairs, when her feet were checked
by a remembrance of the sentiment—" All right
government of children begins with self-govern
ment. "
"VF ill anger subdue anger? When storm meets
storm, is the tempest stilled?" These were ques
tions asked of herself almost involuntarily. "This
iri no spirit in which to meet my children. It
never has, and never will enforce order and
obedience, she added, as she stood upon the stairs,
struggling with herself and striving for victory.
From the nursery came louder sounds of disorder.
How weak the mother felt! Vet in this very
weakness was strength.
"I must not stand idle here," she said, as a
s h a rp e r cry of anguish smote her ears, and so
she moved on quickly and opening the nursery
door, stood revealed to her children. Julia had
Just raised her hand to strike Emily, who stood
confronting her with a fiery face. Both were a
little started at their mother's sudden appearance,
and both expecting the storm which usually came
at such times, began to assume the defiant, stub
born air with which her intemperate reproofs were
always met.
A few moments did Mrs. Lyon stand looking
at her childred—grief, not anger upon her pale
countenance. How still all became. What a look
of winder came gradually into the children's
faces, as they glanced one at the other. Some
thing of shame was next visible. And now the
mother was conscious of a new power over the
young rebels of her household.
"Emily," said she, speaking mildly, and yet
with a touch of sorrow in her voice she could not
• subdue, "I wish you would go up into my room
and sit with Mary while she sleeps."
Without a sign of opposition, or even of reluc
tance, Emily went quietly from the nursery, in
obedient* to her mother's desires.
"This room is very touch in disorder, Julia."
Many times had Mrs. Lyons, said, under like
circusastames, "Why don't yo u
. put ihisip to
rights?" or, "I never saw such girls! If all the
rooms were topsy-survey, and the door as inch
thick with dirt, you'd never tarn over a haul

A story, which gossips smatter every where, is
the most striking instauee of the truth of the .: , 1

ever remember to have heard A lady, uis a
widow out of mourning--the halcyon era a
woman's life, alas: how few arc lucky enough to
attain such good fortune—ha.; more beauty tliau
fortune—although she is so far above waut to
be called independent—and, unfortunateiy. a
good deal of her estate is menaced by a pen.iu '
lawsuit, which cannot add to her eompeteto
but may straighten her circumstances if
cided against her. With a widow rarely t un,l
out of a serpent's or a widow's head, she prac
tises constantly a strict economy, to amass a -urn
sufficient to enable her to bear an adverse deci
sion of the court with equanimry. She took
advantage of the exhibition to let her apartments.
They at once found a tenant, who took them for
two months, the longest period for which she
could let them without loss, as these months she
spent with a friend in the country, and they are
the longest period her business interests wit! al
low her to be absent from Paris.
She value here early in July; but the gentle
, man who had taken them refused to give them
up. tin@ went to see him, and she insisted that !
he should tent them; he offered her his heart
and haul She refused, as she had refused a
great many other good offers. Widowhood is
so pleasant! lie received a notice to quit; but ,

"What," exclaimed she, "you have eornprotins

dame, I took the liberty, but you ?we me no
thanks for it. I was annoyed to death every
day by process—l hate process—the very sight
of it irritates my nerves. The plaintiff in your
suit is an acquaintance--a debtor of mine—l
easily porchased his title against you; this I have
I erring if Your snit is ended." I{.. , .!fusing her
any iu .re planation' he quitted her. J day or
two afterwards, a poor woman called to thank her
jfor the kit:duces she bestowed on her during her
1 absence, through her husband. "My husband!"
"Yes, Madame, the good gentleman you left here;
he told me that in parting you left some money
fur me; which be gave." A day or two after
wards she learned that her lodger had fought ii
duel on her account, with an impertinent, silly
`puppy, who had pestered her with his intentions.
There was no remedy for this affair but marriage
The tenant and landlady were married a week
ago in the country, on the splendid estate of her
husband. "Faint heart never won fair lady."
HYDROPHOBIA.—It is said that in every in
stance where a person is bitten by a mad dug,
:Awnll pustules make their appearance sooner ur
!ater on the under side of the tongue; but general
ly in from six to nine days. These pustules mast
be opened with a sharp pointed instrument, as
they are too tough to break of themselves; and
the matter must be discharged and spit out, or it
will be re-absorbed, which reabsorption is said to
cause the paroxysms termed the hydrophobia.—
The above is the substance of a communication,
which appeared in the New Orleans Ti"pic some
years sines from the pea of a southern physician,
who says: "In ISSI I was lolled to visit a negro
woman who had been bitten by a mid dog, and
by pursuing the treatments here laid down, I was
successful in caring her. This course is the same
that was recommended by Prof. Maroebetti of
Macaw, in 1830, and proved effectual, and my
