The following coup a"aed of the latest French li tara turo, we abridge from the London Saturday Review : , Th? fourth and last volume of M. Poirson's Histoire du Regne de Henri IY, begins with the year 1600, and discusses the King's foreign policy at the time when ho was already meditating what is generally known as his grand dessein. With reference to t>e morder of Henry IT, our author believes that ?availlac did not act under the in? fluen?a cd* any person or political party. He was certainly not tho accent of Spain. It is equally absurd to make the Queen Mary Dull edie i and tho Duke" d*Eperuon_ responsible for so foul a crime. Tfy? latter part of the volume,contains an account of the progress of -literature,~science and-the fine arts, under the reign of. Henry IT. M. Sainte Beuve's N?uveax Lundis keep np their interest. Classical literature contri bu tes its . full share to the seventh volume, and the two ar " tides on the Greek anthology prove that the elc . gant and accomph'ghod critic is equally at his ease amongst the- treasurea of ancient" civilization and in the midst of ~the inspirations of French genius. Corneille's Le Cid is the subject of four papers. Alfred de Vigny. Journal d'un Poete, by M. L. Ratisbonne, according to the Saturday Review, can interest only the Count's particular friend;.;, and Ahould not have been inflicted on the pu blic. " A. Jal has undertaken a great task in his Dic tionaire Critique de Biographie, ot d' Histoire, in? tended to correct all the blunders with which his? tories, both general and special, abound. This work ia said to be. very amusing; .so. indeed, aro also, tho five folios of Boyle on the same class of subjects. Most of the articles are .of a discursive character ; one anecdote leads to another. M. Saint Maro Girardin -appears once more be? fore the public. His new work, La Fontaine et les Fabulistes, like his Cours de Litt?rature Dramat? ique, is tiie substance of lectures delivered by hun at the Sorbonne, and it will, no doubt, meet with similar success. La Fontaine forms the main topic, but around him are grouped all the principal fabu? lista of ancient and modern times, and we thus pass from Greece to India, from India to Rome, in the most agreeable and entertaining manner. Boseuetfe Orateur.-A critical Essay on the Soi - - mons of Bossnet is the title of a new work by E. Gander. Nearly 200 Sermons bearing the name of-j Bossnet appear in the collected series of his works," yet we know for a certainty that he only published, seven .himself ; we may thus conjecture what. -doubts attach io the gomiinonoss of the rest. - M. I Gandar gives ns in an interesting preface the his? tory of the MSS. of the Bishop's discourses. - Becits?d'une Sour; Souvenirs de fimille,.. by : Madame^3ravenj: is ^cne. of ?a comparatively .ney* class of -works,, which have, suddenly obtain ed; - Very great - popularity in Franco, sta ?the eemi-' rehgious,nser?i-biogxnphical volumes? describing the highep*! phase? Of Christian life amongst Bo _man Cati, hes, and giving the experience of per sons under strong impressions of piety. Tho de lightM autobiographies* of Maurice and Eugenio j de Guerin] are examples-of this style. Tho sister whose character is here portrayed with much feel-. ihg and genmne simplicity, ie Mod'Ue: Alexandrine: d'Alopeua. idaughter of a well-known diplomatist, *? protestant by birth, and, in every sense of tho : word, an accomphshed person.

Febru? ary, March and April, A. D. 18C5; with a Discussion of the Facts ascertained, " Prof. C. Plaza Smyth is abeut to publish, three formidable volumes .on his strange theory that the Great Pyramid was in? tended byits ^primeval-designer to preserve tho' memory of a system of weights and measures for the use of auinankind. At ? lecture on "The English Bible" by Mr. Dolo, delivered at Moston, the lecturer exhibited two valuable and curious relics, viz: a copy of Tindale. Bible, which"had been in the Antrobus family Jnr. abovo three hundred years; and a, copy of -wie "Breeches Bible," which was formerly the property of the Rev. John Wesley, was saved from the firo at Epworth; 'at the same time that Wesley was rescued, and was given by him to his niece, who was great-grandmother of the wife of the lecturer. Schiller's "Lay of the Bell" was represented in a series of tableaux vivants, at a grand soiree given hythe Prince Boyal of Prussia in honor of the Count of Flanders. The Archbishop of Westminster is about to publish the late ouarge cf the Bishop of Orleans on "Atheism and Social PeriL" with a preface by himself on "Rationalem in England." The new story ol Mrs. Edwards, the author of "Archie Lovell/* entitled "Steven Lawrence, Yeo? man," will be commenced in the next number' Of the Galaxy. It is printed from the author's ad? vance manuscript. A correspondent of the Leeds Mercury savs that Thomas Carlyle is getting better and stronger every week ut Men tono, where he is staving with friends, and adds : "Pei haps we may have yet an? other book from him, of a very interesting semi biographical kind." The April number of the Gentleman's Magazine will contain iud commencement of a startling nov? elty, considering the staid character of that period - ical, in the shape of a novel entitled "Madenioi selle Mathilde, in which Dr. Johnson will figure, together with other literary celebrities of tho period. 1^. CJumming of "The Great Tribulation ' and other doleful theological works, was Mely black? balled at the Atiienoum Club in London, where he was np for election, by a very large majority of its members. The good Doctor behoves in aha speedy dissolution.of .things, yet he refused a few years ago to rent the house he was occupving except on a tolerably long; lease. A literary duel was recently fought at Vonico, the combatants being Lieutenant-Colonel Mani n and Professor Guisoppe Vollo, and tho cirse a biography by tho latter of. Daniel Mouin, which the former considered inimical to tho memory of his father. The learned professor received a wound rn the right hand at the first assault, and the affair ended, tho soconds refusing to allow the combat to proceed. "Wflliwa Tell has received his -ossport-vised by Mr. S. Baring Gould, M. A-and has gone lo joiii the gentle Pocahontas in the regions of historical fable. Mr. Gould, an English antiquario i schohv who wrote hit; "Curious Myths of the Midd'c Ages," to perform *:the painful dntv," as ho terms it, of dispelling the popular belief in the stiring story o? W'JSsm Tell, is the man who pricks the popular bubble. At a recent business meeting of tho Cambridge Union, England, it was proposed to exe: ide lix Swinburne's poetry from tho hst of booka recom? mended for purchase by the Library Committee, but it was decided, after much discussion, by a large majority, that the offending volume or volumes should not bo withdrawn from the list. Mr. Swinburne's last poem, an ode on tho Insur? rection in Candia, is advertised to appear in tho March number of the Fortnightly Review, which has not yet reached this country. Mr. Gould, utterly disregardful of the proprie? ties of historic tradition, declares that the story of Tell has been repeated with variations ever since the eleventh century. The original Tell was a Norse hero, he was a myth of tho Faroe Islands, he was an English, a Finnish, and a Persian per? son; in short, the legendary Swiss is onlv a faint copy. Persia, Iceland, Switzerland and Denmark putin the strongest claims; and on these difieren t >crsions of the same story, in countries so remote, as well as antecedent in date, Mi-. Gould rests his theory that William Tell is not an historical char? acter. HOPE FOR POOR BOIS.-Linnaeus, founder of a science, was apprenticed to a shoemaker. Ben. Johnson, the poet, worked some time as a brick? layer. Thc father of Haydn, the great musical lomposer, was a wheel-wright. John Hunter, one pf too greatest anatomists that ever lived, was, in youth, engaged with a carpenter, and made chairs and tables. Claude Lorraine, whose paintings are to be found in the "most valn?hlo cabinets: on; Eu? rone, was formerly-a pastry cook. Metastasio, the celebrated Italian'poet, used, wh?n ?-b?y, to sing his versos about tho streets for a moreel of bread. Diligence, industry and perseverence, with prayer for Hod's blessings, will do wonders. Hopo bn,"boye; and hopo always I - - Langtoft's "Chronicle in French verso,, from Brut tb the end of tho reign of Edward the 1st," famous for its translation, into EngUsh verse by Hobert of Brunne, is being edited by air. Thomas Wright, for the series of Chronicles and Memorials published under tho direction of the Master of the Bolls. Tho iirst volume has appeared this week. To tho save series Mr. Cockayne adds a third vol? ume of paperB illustrating what he affectedly calls Leochdoms. "Wortcunning and Starcraft of Eaily England." His preface contains an excellent argu? ment for what may probably be the fact, that birrie tho grammarian ?B not to he identified with 2E]fric tho Archbishop of Canterbuiy. M. Victor Cousin has left his collection of books, said to ho of great value, to the Sorbonne, in tho following clause : "I bequeath to the Sorbonne my best work-mv library. Ono of the old philoso? pher's political sarcasms is repeated in Parisian houses : "You arc a young fellow," he is reported to havo said to a friend a few weeks ago, "take good advice and save money. If not, you will pre? paro for yourself a dishonored old age. If not, wbcu your hairs are gray, you will have no alterna? tivo but an hospital or the Senate" A collection of Cousin's bon mots would maka an admirable commentary on current history. A correspondent of the London Morning Star writes : 4*vYho shall say that literature is not be? coming fashionable, when the Athenaeum an? nounces that the Queen is understood to-be at work upon a book, with the assjjtance of Mr. Arthur Helps, compiling a work of great impor? tance; and yet as to which the world is wholly in ignorance-tho life of the late Prince Consort ? The name of tho publishing firm which has boen fortu? nate enough to secure the copyright is not an? nounced, but what a sensation the publication will create I Then tr.o Duke of Argyll's oldest son. the Marquis of Lorne, a young gentleman only just of ago, bas commissioned Messrs. Hurst & Black? ett to publish the "narrative of the 'Trip to the Tropics' which ho made last year." A now phase has been given this year to the literature of valentines, and the love of young ladies ia now invoked for a spouse who ?B not of this earth I 'J hey are asked in The Christian Val? entino, to yield their heartB to "the loving" One," whoso affection for them will be something warm? er than that of any child of the world. Here is a sample of one verse out of nine, all of which solicit pious young maidens to "love your Valentine :" Do not longer tarry, Bead bis inspired Unes; Christ for ever marry, - . j The best of Valentines. ' Young Agnes ia then referred to (,ant. v. 10-16; and cartainly the fifteenth verse teaohes her how earth? ly marriages may be followed by much profitless consequences. Philological students, in England have discovered that the slang sense in which the word jolly ?B used by fast young ladies and their "men" is not slang. They point out that in a serious theological work pubhsnedtwo centuries back-"John Trapp's Commentary on the Old and New Testament, London, 1656-7"-?B to he read, "All was jolly quiet at Ephesus before St. Paul came hither." "A century earlier," says Mr. J. B. Shaw, in "Notes and Queries,'1 "North, in his translation of Plu? tarch's Lives, uses the words thus: lt (the wind which some call ccecias) bloweth a jolly cool wind.' Lu the following, from South, 'He catches at an apple of Sodom, which, though it may entertain his eye with a florid, jolly white and red, yet,' 4c., the term is,used adjectively (vide Johnson).,- In. tho 'Taming of tho Shrew' (Act iii?, sc. 2, Katherine says to Petraohio " 'Tis like you'U prove a jolly Burly groom.' " An interesting contribution to our political his? tory will soon bo made in the publication, by Messrs. Hurd & Houghton, of an elaborate review of tho origin and course of parties in the United States, written by the late President Van Buren dm Lng his retirement at Lindenwald, Tliis renew was on episode in his autobiographical memoirs, which were left in au unfinished and unrevised state, breaking off a little before Mr. Van Buren's Administration as President, and which, if pub? lished in full, would be voluminous, and, after all only a fragment. The episode on parties wai found, separately considered, to bo more complete and to require little revision. Under these cir cumstances, tho sons of Mr. Van Buron, to whom hiB papers were lett, have decided to'publish the latter .by itself, and to place .the memoirs, as well as the ether niisoellaneous papers left'by Mr. Vari Buren, in the handsof Charles H. Hunt; Esq., who is engaged upon an elaborate biography of thc Ex-President. In an article on "Tbs Clergy and the JPnlpit, The Saturday Beview-thus accounts for tin alleged dullness of sonnons : "For why ore sermons dull? The main reason, we take it, is that gjyen in rather a coarse form in the- common proverb, that yon cant make a silk purse out of a BOW'S oar. A largo portion of tlie-clergy cannot be otherwise'than duli wheukthey preach,, simply because .it is not in them Their speeches are dull, their letters are dull, their conversation is dull, except when you want actual information from them wnieh?thoy happen to poa s ess. We aro not speaking in contempt in saying this. We -merely mean that, wita the sources of .intellectual excitement so abundant as they now ore on every sid i, tho merely average man can hardly expect to speak continuously, upon any sub 1'ect in a way to interest an intelligent listener jet any one who has been at college try to recall to his mind the average capacity of those of his companions who have taken orders, and then re member that these same men represent for th most part ' that educated portion of tho clergy whose graduil supersession by tho Uterates is be coming a subject of such constan!; complaint, that; wo think he will hardly wonder at tho aajterage ser? mon not being a very thrilling performance."

Watson, for sometime pool tho Local and News Editor of tho News Era of this city, announces his withdrawal from tho editorial corps of that journal in its issuo of the 19th. He enters the editorial department of the Ladies' Home, a position for winch he is eminently fitted, and where, wo doubt not, his labors will be highly appreciated by the numerous readers of that excellent journal.-Atlanta Opinion JAIL DELIVERY AT CARTERSVLLLE. -AU the in? mates of Barlow County jail including two or three from this county, made their escape on the night of Tuesday, the 12th instant. A man by the n arno of Hon dor s on. from Floyd County, was con fined in tho debtor's apartment, and it seems that ho-probably assisted by Borne one outside-by taking off the hinges on the outside of the door made tho way of exit from the jail possible. They aU left, and, up to tho time our informant left, no information of their whereabots, or the direction they had taken, had been received.- Rome Courier. A? UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR_On Tuesday last difficulty took place on the front porch of the old hotel, between-Mr. George A. Brown and Mr Richard Daniels. Several shots wcro exchanged between tho partios, two of Mr. Daniels' shots entering tho person of Brown, one lodging in the left side, and the other tho corner of the left oye which, it is thought, he will lo.se. Mr. D. received no injury whatever. The. difficulty has long been browing, and was expected to toke place whenever the parties met. Mr. Brown is .mfiering from tho haU that entered the eye, which ras not yet been extracted.-Sumter Republican. EDITORXAT? CHANGE.-Mr. H. D. Capers, a graco fal and pungent writer, has withdn wn from the editorial control of the Central Georgian. Mr. J D. Anthony has succeeded Mr. Capel?. In his salutatory he says : "In politics we are decidedly conservativo; whei it is necessary to speak on this subject at all, we shall bo hqord defending tho Constitution and those who advocate constitutional Uborty. We w?l advocate the cause of morality and religion Agriculture and horticulture, "the house, field and garden" shaU not be neglected. The ladies and the Uttle folks must bo pleased. In short we will try to do om* duty, please the people and malee the Georgian a welcome weekly visitor to our numerous readers." , Mr. Anthony acknowledges that he has had a hard road to travel, and, if championing some o tho obselcte~theories as abovo mentioned, does not overstate tho case.

Tho b.inds of regulators organized in Montgom 3ry count , and other portions of the Stato, must bo disbanded, and thoso engaged wiU receive mer? ited punishment for any outrages committed. Tho Colonel commanding also calls upon tho civil au? thorities of this State to use every efl'ort to put flown tho many acts of lawlessness which have occurred of late, and any neglect or refusal on ilicir part will warrant the interference of the mili? tary authorities.- Savannah Republican. NORTH CAROLINA EMIGRANTS.-Several parties of emigrant* from the State of North Carolina have passed through this city en roide for the Western and Northwestern States. Most of these people-, biding it impossible for them to live in North Car jlina, have sold their lands, some of them for one lobar and fifty couts per nero, and havo gono to the Wost to seek their fortunes.

JOUNIY.-Ii ap? pears that a lawless Bet ?f "Bed Strings" in Wilkes" county, have taken it into -their, heads, that be causotho State has 'been placed under martial law* that therefore there is no law to punish crime,.'! and the vicious and lawless can have thou* own | way and appropriate the property of theil- neigh? bors to theil' own use with impunity, and commit othYr outrages as well. Last week a band of ten or twelve of these outlaws, headed uv a desperado who says he hails from Maryland, with any number of aliases, and all but himj?elf citizens of Wilkes, made a raid through a portion of ' that county, taking horses, mules, watches, brandy and other property; and compelling by force, good citizens, whom they happoned to meet, to go with them. They met a man and his sister in the road with a team, took the animals, and then hung the man to a limb until he was nearly dead, when they cut him down and camed him to their camp a prison? er. During the night he watched his opportunity and made his escape, and collecting some dozen of citizens, attacked the desperados in their camp, capturing a half dozen, the others making their escape.. Four of these have been admitted to bail, and three, including the leadsr, ore confined in the j ail at Wilkesboro'. These men say that their friends are numerous and that they can be released at any time. They Bay that there is no law to punish them now, and that those who arrested them ?hall suffer for it. From the statements made by these outlaws, their organization is extensive, and they have plenty of arms and ammunition. They profess to DB "loyal Union men." It requires no sage to tell whoso teaching is the cause of these troubles. {Slatesviile American. BEAUTIFULLY DULL.-The peculiar state of the atmosphore at this present time seems to exercise a deleterious influence'upon all classes and condi? tions of men. The effect tends to one general re? sult, that of rendering business and mattere in general as dull as possible. The city, since the inauguration of the wet season, has continued ex? tremely quiet, so much so as to render it far from pleasant. We aro in favor of order, but if rogues don't steal, and a little- excitement gotten ap oc? casionally, how in the world are "ye locayles" to exist.-Wilmington Journal. A NOTEWORTHY" ACTION.-An incident of the times has recently come to our knowledge that, we think, to the honor of one of tho parties concerned at least, should be put upon record; and we the more gladly publish it because it adds fur thur tes? timony to the virtue and integrity of Southern women. tj> Early in January post, a lotter was received at the post office in this place, addressed to "E. A. Marshall, Esq." Mrs. E. A. Marshall of this county, supposing that there was some mistake in the address, and that it was intended for her, opened it, and to her surprise found that it related to a certain silver plate that had been stolen from her by some of Kilpatrick's cavalry, when Sher? man's command passed through this region in the early part of 1865. The letter was signed by Mrs. V. J: Faison, of Faison's Depot, Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, and. stated that certain silver was in the possession of a cousin of hers, a widow lady-that she was anxious to restore it to the rightful owner-that somo of it was marked "E. A. Morshall," and other pieces simply with the ini? tials ; that learning that there was a family by tho name of Marshall residing in this county, she for? warded the letter addressed as above, and asked if any of them had lost any plate during the "Great March," and for a description of it. Sho further scated that the plate oamo into the possession of her relative as pay for work done for a Yankee sol? dier, whose command spent several days in the neighborhood of her residence. The soldier when he passed it over to her stated that there was more of it in the possession of another soldier. Mi's. Marshall replied, stating che number of pieces she had lost, and described them. In due time an answer was received from Mrs. Faison, and tho description pronounced to be satisfactory -that the number of pieces in her relative's pos? session was eighteen, and requested Mrs. Marshall to direct how sue would havo it forwarded to her. Mrs. Marshall has since received tho plate. [ Wadesboro' Argus. As?HIM FOB PRINTERS.-Thc announcement that accompanied the publication of the w?l left by Charles F. Browne (Aitemus.Ward), to the effect that his property-some $60,000-shall, after the death of his mother, be appropriated to the found? ing of an asylum for printers, has drawn from the Chicago Tribune a practical and an excellent sug? gestion, as follows : "Wo propose that the craft in all parts of the country, hy a united resolvo, provide that there be retained by the foreman of each newspaper and ^printing"office, from tho earnings of the journey "men, a sum equal to five mills upon each dollar of hii weekly bili. This small tax, of one-half cent on the dollar, should be paid over to a local treas? urer weekly, and by him forwarded to'a general treasurer to be invested until such time as the asylum fund will be available. The tax is a small ono to each person, but in ten years' time, if prop? erly invested, with its earning H, would constituto a fund equal to the establishment acd endowment of an asylum equal to the demands of the craft, anct'worrhy of tho men whoso infirmities of body may make them its inmates." ^ MARRIAGES.

Since our last Friday's issue, our reports from tho interior have furnished little infor.nation re? quiring special comment, as far BP crop prospects are concerned. We aro assured, however, that tho J armers have becu seriously impeded in their planting operations by the excessively unfavjrable weather. EXCHANGE.-Theio has been not much offering, and, with a light demand, but little doing. Thc rates have fluctua: ed in agreement with the course of gold. GOLD.-'.ino fluctuations in tho price of gold have been confino-. within narrow limit1?. Brokers are buy ing at 133al34, and selling at 137al38. RICE.-We note a quiet, but firm market, with a gt od demand and lair stock. Clean is held in lots at 9%a9 *?c. : retail, 9Kal0c; rough rice, $185a2, by tt.c cargo.

COTTON.-Our upland market, which closod, as quoted in our last report, at an advance, had a spasmodic ten? dency upward for a fuw days, and some holders were ucky enough to place good stylos of middling at 30c, but yesterday the accounts from Liverpool were again dis istrous, and a further tendency to lower prices was nonifestod. in that market to-day, according to the cable iispatchos. This unfortunate news checked thc growing :cucleucv of holders to sell, and has completely unsettled jriccB. Thcro have been no operations to-day upon vhicb we could baso quotationa, but wo should infer, 'rom such information as wc can gather, that 29c io not far ?ut of the way for middlings.
