This is a big sum to give- out of the -State treas- ury. With the provisions of the bill we are not acquainted, but suppose that it makes some distinction between the loy al and disloyal sufferers, inasmuch as the latter had much to do in encourag ing the ,rebefs northward, and were.loud mouthed in letting the rebels know that they sympathized with them. fir There seems to be "a determination on the part of the Legislature to change the mode of selecting jurors, so as to avoid wheel-stutling, or whatever dodge a dominant party may adopt to . get its own friends in a majority upon juries, BB is now seriously charged is done.

They ignore Tam, tobacco, tee, coffee, pork, swearing, quar reling, wrangling, gossiping, backbiting, Lying, cheating and defran4ing—all of which is well as far as it goes. Unlike the Mormons; they have but one " affin ity" at the same time, with whom they " live" so long as they both can agree— when they are "divorced;" not by a de- cree of the courts, but by mutual con sent. , .

Napoleon 111 If his organ of approbativeness be great, the French Emperor must be in tensely pleased with the manner in which the world at large stand upon tip toe, to hear his official utterances. The head of a powerful nation, ever reticent, most the world desires to hear him speak, he has comprehended the advantage of his position and, " playing upon a harp of a thousand strings," which lay ready to his band, he strikes a note and the whole world vibrates to the touch, in peals, of softest harmony or in sounds of harshest clangor. lu the multiplicity of minds composing the, world _there are vast differences of comprehension. Those there are, who, when a sentiment is uttered by one high in athority, at once accept it as truth, and rest thereon, as upon the " Rock of Ages." There are others who, having less faith in hu man nature, accept such utterances doubtfullY,,desiring, to believe, yet care fully dissecting tbe language to see if by :any possibility there may not be a mean ing conceuled—" a cat in the meal-bag." Circumscribing this world of mind, and bringing it'down to the limits of our own special and peculiar interests in the af fairs more directly within the field of our own national affairs : we find that we too, have been , dancing attendance upon the words of this 77- worlds magi cian," we have waited for his words of wisdow, and what have we heard ? 'rho oracle hes spoken and his speech is now before us. We were expecting him to say that he would withdraw his troops from Mexico. We thought he would say, that in deference to our national • policy and the irritation which was caus ed among our people, by the intrusion upon the liberty of our neighbor: that the troops would be withdrawn. Some, reading his speech, say, " the thing is done—the troops will be withdrawn." But does he say so ? We do not so un derstand,it. Instead of saying : "Lwill withdraw the French troops within a giv en tine"—he simply says—" I am com ing to an under - standing with the Emper or Maximilian, to, fix the epoch for the recal o lof our troops, in such a manner that the return may, be effected without compromising the French interests which we have to defend, in that distant coun try" who can say that this is a promise of speedy withdrawal. In this matter, be openly defers to the opinion and wish es of Maximilian, and who is so obtuse as not to know that Maximilian will never willingly consent to the removal of a force by which alone he holds his throne ? What then does this speech amount to? We fail to see in it, any deference to our , national policy, or re lief for our suffering neighbor and we are therefore constrained to say that, though the note struck may be harmony to his admirers, it is but discord to us and to all true lovers of frank, honest, out spok en words of peace and good will and that no true loyal, liberty loving heart, can for a, moment accept it.

Mur dered in the moment of victory and of forgiveness, his death was at once a proof of the ingratitude of slavery and of the danger of toleration to treason. There was always something in his ex ample, during life, strangely different from other men. His quaint humor, his singular sense, his simple ways, his od dity of speech and his freedom from the faults of language and of temper com mon to most public characters, made him an object of alternate wonder and respect, There was a sequence and a consistency in his acts, so that however he might startle others, he always satis fied then of his perfect integrity. Lts coLN dead, is something saint-like. As he left us, in the full enjoyment of a na tion's love, with nobody to, hate him save those who were unfit for pardon, we think of him as an apostle, sent among men to preach the doctrines of a com mon father. The manner of his death will survive all ordinary memories, and will keep his virtues forever before his countrymen and the world at large.-- The Press, or We perceive that the demand for the first six numbers of The Saturday.
