Washkorn, of Texas, has addresed the following letter to Senator Wilson : WASHINGTON, March 21. 1867. Sir-On my return home to Texas many ques? tions will bo asked as to the extent of the disfran? chisement set forth in the Reconstruction law passed March 2d, and afterwards amended by the supplemental act. Does the law, as it now reads, disfranchise thc rank and file of the eoldiers and citizens in the Southern States, who had never taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States,'or is it only applicable to that class of persons who had previously taken that oath and afterwards ensraged ni the rebellion ? Your interpretation of tho law, as understood here, will do much in quieting speculations on the subject, and give many the opportunity of aiding by their suffrage to quiet the country. I have the honor to be, sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, JOHN M. WASHKORN, Of Texas. To which Senator Wilson replied as follows : J. M. WASHKORN, Esq.: Mu.J)ear Su;-Ia reply to your question, "does th? law as it now exists, disfranchise tho rank and file of tho. soldi ors who had never taken an oath to supporVthe Constitution of thc Unitod States?" I have to say that it does not disfranchise them. The Constitutional Amendment disqualifies from holding office certain persons who have taken au oath to support the Constitution of tho United States, and then engaged in the rebellion, or gave aid and comfort to it. This class of persons arc disfranchished, and all other persons arc en? titled to vote. These persons are monloned in tho Constitu? tional Amendment, so that all porsous will know who are disqualified and disfranchised. . Yours, truly, HENRY WILSON. Our New York Letter. [EB OH OUB HE oe LAR COBBESTONDENT. ] NEW YOEE, March 25.-You have, no doubt, been informed ero this by telegraph of the destruc? tion by fire of the Winter Garden Theatre on Satur? day last. This is the third of the noi -Herald advertising theatres that has been destroyed by conflagration since the burning, of BABNUH'S Museum, which, with the Academy of Music, was the head and front of the non-advertising diffi? culty. Tho Museum went first, them came-or rather went-tho Academy; next the Bowery Theatw, and now the Winter Garden. People shrug their shoulders, and call these things very strango coincidences. EDWIN BOOTH has lost his entire theatrical wardrobe, including, rare jewels and heir-looms of his father's, among which is tho j celebrated "Richard's crown." The wholo is valued at sixty thousand dolla: s, and there was not one dollar of insurance. Besides this, the magnificent scenery and appointments of the "BOOTH Revival" plays, valued at about fifty thou? sand, and owned by BOOTH and Manager STOABT, have all been destroyed, and were not insured. The three plays which had been revived in such magnificent style are Richelieu, Hamlet, and the Merchant of Yenice. Othello was to be produced in like stylo next season, the scenery and appointments being almost completed,, these shared in the general destruction. It may seem^ surprising to your readers how the wardrobe of a male actor could have cost such a large amount os sixty thousand dollars, but it must be borne in mind that the dresses and lacee were of tho cost? liest description, and BOOTH had one shawl which alone cost three thousp ;. dollars. . A very hand? some, but less costly, suawl, presented to tho grent actor by ene of your most respected citizens, was also destroyed, and I believe that BOOTH had set more store on this than on anything in the collec? tion, except such dresses as once belonged to his distinguished father. BOOTH regards it as a cu? rious coincidence that .on Friday night, when he appeared as Brutus, a character in which, from its quiet and artistic nature, he is-rarely greeted with marked applause, he was received with demonstra? tions of a most enthusiastic nature, and was re? peatedly called out before the curtain, amidst a storm of applause equal to any he has over re? ceived-this on Friday night, and on Saturday morning, whilst at breakfast, he learns the news of the destruction of his entire theatrical effects, the accumulations of almost a lifetime. The Southern Hotel was saved by the exertions of the firemen, but of coursa a large portion of tho fur-: niture aud handsome carpets were ruined by the water from the engines. The entire community sympathize most deeply with the great tragedian, in his almost irreparable loss, and until he builds his new theatre up town, the legitimate drama may be said to be dead hero; for even at WALLACE'S, .8hakapeare has long ago given place lo semi-sens?tional pieces; whose chief merit consisted in their scenery and appoint? ments. WHEATLEY, the great Black Crook manager, an? nounces a grand Block Crook matinee on Wednes? day, for the benefit of STUABT of the Winter Gar? den, and it is probable that all of tho other theatres will follow snit, for it is a fact that reflects much credit on the fraternity,; that theatrical people, however envions they may be of each other, when the sun of prosperity shines, are always prompt to loud a helping hand when any of their brethren are stricken down by the hand of adversity. ' A few evenings ago whilst alargo humber of the ; .devout sons of Ham wore engaged in prayer at .Ohe of tho Baptist ; churches in Brooklyn, a number of ghosts made a raid upon the colored sanctuary and amused themselves by shooting spit balls and peas into the faces of the pion?- supplicants for grace. The ghosts were at first searched, for in -vain, for the shower of spit halls and peas grew thicker and confusion reigned supreme. The ghosts, emboldened by their success, indulged their love of un ghostly fun by artistic imitations of angry cat-a, mingled with human groans and in? human bursts of demoniacal laughter, whereupon the entire'assembly arose and instituted a moro vigor?os search, which resulted in the. capture of four black ghosts-three male and ono female ?who were promptly kicked- out by the black sup ?ficante, arrested by white policemen and taken to te Tombs. lu the Catholic churches to-day will be cele? brated the -festival of the ' Annunciation, in com? memoration of the appearance of the. angel GABHXEX to the virgin MAST, announcing that it was GOD'S will that she- should bo chosen as thc mother of the'Saviour. Mass will be offered and other appropriate ceremonies will talco place. There is quite an excitement hero on tho subject of rents which have gono up in all portions of tho city, from twenty-five to fifty per cent. The land? lords are determined to advance their rents and tho tenants for the most part will ha YO to "stand tho raise" or go farther with tho chance of faring no better. Ic is a very difficult thing to find a decont house in a good,'locality, suitable for families in medias res forloss than fifteen hundred per annum.. Theatres-such of them as arc not burnt down-; drawing well and making money. MOULTRIE. : ' - - - -. -???>? ? - - i ? ? - LIBERTY OF THE PRESS IN FRANCE. We published a few days ago a translation of tho article by M..EMILE DE GIBABDI??, reviewing tho 'policy of the Emperor's government, since the coup d'etat, which led to his prosecution. It scorn s his article was eutitled "Des Destin?es Nouvelles" ani was altered by tho government organs to, "Des Destin?es Meilleures." The trial took place on the 7th inst., and M. de G nt AP. BIN- was con? demned to pay a fine of 5000 francs, without im? prisonment. Up to the time of the judgment being given, his paper, the Liberte continued to comment freely on political affairs, but on the 9th it appeared without its usual editorial;*, and in their placo, and filling four columns, was a critique of v jew Medieval comedy, entitled Galileo. The liberte refused even to publish the report of the judgment until it could take it from an official source. In reply to questions at the trial, Girardin said ho was 61 years of age. The President said : " You are ac? cused of having excited to hatred and contempt of the Emperor's Government in au article of the Liberte. Do you admit being the author of the article ?" Girardin replied, " I do." Ha said he was in the gallery when M. Ronlier deUvered the speech whioh provoked it, and which he answered 'lu hie journal on the spur of the moment. Had he not heard it with his own ears it was possible it would have been less vehement. Girardin made a good, spicy speeoh, which was received, with laugh? ter and applause. It is a very curious fact that the law under which -he is prosecuted is not one of the Emperor's mak? ing, but one passed by tho Republic of 1848, when Cavaignac waa President. That law, however, expressly reserved tho right of journalists to discuss and blame both the acts of tho executive power and ministers, and so long as trial by iury lasted it could only be in some very exceptional case, indeed, that the statuto could ho acted i.pon, because it is hard to see how, when the right of discussion and censuro was allowed to the fullest extent, the proviso would not cover tho worst accusation that could be made cf exciting to . hatred and contempt. As a matter of fact there never was any prosecution upon the statute under the Government of the Republic. And in 1849 Girardin, then a member of tho legislative Assem? bly, proposed a bill, which was not pas?ed, recom? mending the repeal of the statute on tho ground that nothing so tended to bring all law into con? tempt as retaining on tho statute book menacing laws which were inoperative. The Paris correspondent of tho New York Herald says: I behove all would have been forgiven lo Girardin had he not referred to the Emperor's breach of hiB oath. That is a soro subject, which, by a necessary common consent of tho French press, has never hitherto beeu touched upon. No journal published in Franco since December 2, 1851, has ever before ventured to mention the un? deniable fact that the Emperor's coup d'etat was a breach of his oath. No official writer has ovor of? fered the semblance of a defenco or apology for that perjury. But Emile de Girardin, the intimate friend ot tho Emperor's cousins, Prince Napoleon and the Princess Mathilde, the frequent guest of the Emperor himself at the Tuileries, Compiegnc, Biarritz aud elsewhere, thought the time rife for printing in Paris that the Emperor had "torn up tho Constitution which he had Bworn to defend." It is the utterance of this truth which brought him to the bar of the correctional tribunal on Wednes? day last. Tho prosecution was ordered by the Emporor, personally, in a fit of rage. It is said his ministers attempted to represent that perhaps at the pre? sent moment, when large promises of greater liber? ty had been made, and a new prtss law is on tho stocks, it might be better policy to wink at this offence; but tho Emperor peremptorily told them to go on. Tho French law forbids any report of libol cases, and the papers print nothing but the judg? ment of the court. The judges, it is said, waited for tho Emperor's ordors to know what sentence they should inflict. GIBABDIN is rich, and 5000 francs is nothing to him. Far from being mollified by this light sentoncc, he immediately declared war upon tho Empire; has given notice to Prince NAPOLEON and Princess MATHILDE that he can no longer visit them; and says ho will appeal and get the most eminent counsel in Franco to plead his cause. Ho is a man of wonderful audacil y? fer thc Appeal Court may, and unless debarred by the Emperor will, sentence him to a long term of im? prisonment. He must think the empire in a state of decadence when he dares to beard it in this way. LATEST BT THE MALLS. RECONSTRUCTION IN THE SOUTH. > The New Orleans Times, an influential journal, writes temperately and hopefully of reconstruction on the Congressional plan. Deploring its harsh? ness, the Times nevertheless deprecates angry op? position, and reasons to show that the penalties imposed will not, alter all. fall so widely as!has been expected. Of the oath it remarks that '.'the gist of the whole matter is, that the voter will sup? port the Constitution and obey, . not any kind of laws, but the Jaws passed under the Constitution," adding that any true Southerner "would take it gladly, honestly, and with all his heart." Tho i limes declares that the number whom the oath I will disfranchise is BO small that the white citizens may continue to exercise great numerical influence at the polls if they repudiate violent and unwise counsels. The practical application of this view, it is added, will be indorsed by two-thirds of the white community of Louisiana. JEFFERSON DAVIS. Senator Wilson has token ono step toward rescu? ing the country from farther disgrace, by?bis reso? lutions Concerning tho trial of Jefferson Davis. It is now very nearly two years since-he was captured and consigned to prison, not under any process of law, but by military authority. Meantime the war has ended, the armies are disbanded, and Davis still remains in prison. Ho has never been arraigned for trial, either before a civil or a mili? tary tribunal. He is . not held under any authority known td the law of tho. land. . No charges are: on record against him, and no 'effectual steps have been taken to bring him to trial. Every now and then Congress denounces the President for not hanging him-tho President explains that he has no power or authority even to try- him, and the Chief Justice declines to meddle with them?tter at all until the condition of Virginia is more to his mind. ? Meantime Davis lies in prison, and nobody is responsible for.it, or bas the power, apparently, either to put him on trial or set him free. This state of tluags would be a disgrace to the worst days of the" worst despotisms of Europe. Start? ling stories used to be told of victims.of Austrian tyranny being loft tb rot in the dungeons of Spiel? berg-until even their names and existence had been forgotten. Our Government, ;by its treat? ment of the only conspicuous State prisoner they haye hod, seems likely to relievo tho reputation! of foreign despotisms from the unshared obloquy un? der which it has rested so long.' We agree with the Massachusetts Senator, that Davis should i ei? ther be put upon his trial or set at liberty_Y Times. CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATING COMMTITEE. The Herald has a sensible, .article on Congres? sional Committees of Investigation and the pur? poses they are generally nade to serve, it treats thom as one of tho resorts of political demagogues, by which they try to supply the plaoe of stump speeches, which are losing their' effect and value as means of influencing public action,, and of news {>ap9rs, which aro becoming every year less and ess reliable as tools and insframents - of party leaders. Resolutions of inquiry are brought into Congress and referred to Commit tees-stand? ing or.-eolect-r-who . set ^henrielyeS';; forth 'Witto tto: yt?jck .-to' .-collect. /1ai^iD!0ok':ic^?4iiai^' rial'wbdchl wheri issued as a "report/' may be used as an effective weapon of party warfare. Every special class of the community, aa'it begins to bo distinct and powerful enough to he worth special attention, is appealed to by these reports. Atone time it is the "workingmen," meaning thereby day laborers-next it is the'Peniana, and now il is the "soldiers'and sailors" who are to be convinced that their interests are wholly' distinct from those of the people at. large, and that their only way of having them properly cared for is -by their standing by the party by Which the report, m < uestion is made. There* can he no doubt that this is a fruitful som cc of political demoralization, -but it is by.no means so. now as the Nation deems it. It has long hoon ono of most potent and familiar weapons of our party contests. ; [2?ew York Times. : FROM SOUTH AMERICA, Our .Valparaiso and Lima letters, says the New York Herald of the ' 25th instant, are dated on the 16th and 26th of February. line unpopularity of Pr?d?, the President of Peru, was: being made manifest by mutinies among bis troops ana police.

No wonder that this news, as a cabio dispatch announces, was received-at Paris with groat dissatisfaction, and was behoved to have suggested the proposition from, the Emperor to tho. Governments of Holland, Belgium, and Switzerland for a military alliance like the one concluded by Prussia _wiih the minor German States. We have already expressed the opinion that tho three minor governments referred to will not bo eager.to accept the French proposition, and, from a eable^djspatch in thu morningraissue, we learn that Belgium has actually refused to ac? cept the proposition. FROM IRELAND.. Tho Dublin letter and .the oxtracta from English papers which we publish this morning-give ns de? tailed information on tho last days of the. Fenian insurrection. Thoro was no lack ofmen. no lack of ammunition, and, in particular, no lack of sym? pathy, and niany of tho English papers bore wit nces'to tho dangerous character of tho outbreak. BUL there waB. undoubtedly a great lack of leader? ship, and on Thursday tooming; where our previ? ous account left off, tho backbone of the rebellion was already broken. Thero still were. concentra? tions of Fenians in Cork, Tipperary,. Waterford and Limerick Counties, but they were easily sub? dued. No firm footing was gained by any of the banda, and only two days later (on March ll) the cable announced tho complote restoration of peace. But in spite o' this mismanagement, the sympathy of the Irish people with the Fenian movement stood out more conspicuously than on any other occasion. From Washington., [Special Correspondence of the Baltimore Qatettc.) WASHINGTON, March 25.-I learn through gen? tlemen from different sections of the South that tho people thoro aro preparing to yield implicit obedience to tho requirements ot the late enact? ments of Congress. They will do this without oren a protest-for what-moro eloquent protest could bo imagined than that furnished by the pro? visions of these laws themselves ? The unarmed traveller, in answer to the demand of tho armed highwayman-your money or your Kfe I-does not hesitate or stop to expostulate. In the name of what virtue could he conjuro the outlaw to desist. Plighted faith-magnanimity-mercy-have been in vain appealed to by a prostrate .people to men "vested in a little' brief authority." These virtues are unheeded by tho dominant doopots- or totally unknown. There is consequently nothing left to the.conquered but submission I. ",' .? ".'.Tho - people of the North-those who professed (even while repudiating all practical means for at? taining tho object) an udhoruiiec to tho principles of ropublican government upon which is founded State rights as guaranteed by thc Federal Consti? tution-havo abandoned those who honestly (if cr ronionsly) acted fully up to tho great argument?, and with scarcely tlie cheap expression of com? monplace condolence, philosopuically consign them, in thoir very extremity, to the tender memos of an inturiatud and unrelenting enemy I It is a bitter pill; but it is some comfort to know that those to whom it is administered havo tho fortitude to bear adversily with a better graco than their revilers havo shown themselves capa? ble of sustaining what to them seems to be thc too weighty load of an ephemeral prosperity. What may bo the final result of events now tians piring in that desolated section of tho country time alono can determine. Hopes are entertained, however, by some Southern leading mon now here that if permitted to pursue, unmolested, their ex? ertions in thc direction of reorganizing their in? dustrial relations, evon under the despotism now existing, tho people may yet bo successful in re? pairing their shattered fortunes. But the course of the Radical loaders still indicates further exac? tions and repressions. An immense udition of the speech of Mr. Stevens on confiscation, has boen published in this city, and will bo distributed far and wide. The fact that his infamous Bchemo of wholesale robbery is cstoemed by the loading Radicals as tho'moat effective "Electioneering Document" that can bo issued at this limo, is worth, (in estimating tho probability of pacifica? tion,) a thousand theories or volumes of specula? tions. So vacillating'is the action of Congress that it is unsafo for a moment to rely upon its apparently accomplished work, much less to predict what it will do. Tho Semite to-day recalled from the House its adopted resolution providing for an adjournment from Tuesday next until December. Tho House immediately passed a concurrent resolution eminently characteristic of tho trick? eries of tho hour. It provides for an adjournment of both Houses on Thursday next, at 12 o'clock, to meet on tho first Monday in May, Juno, and so on monthly, until tho first Monday in December, un? less, within ten days preceding theso appointed times, respectively, the President of tho Senate and Speaker of tho House shall issue a joint pro? clamation informing Congress that their assem? bling is inexpedient. Senator Nyo, lately styled by Mr. Wilson "dema? gogue/' proved bia title to that soubriquet this morning by presenting a memorial (specially en? trusted to him and Frank Thomas of tho House) from certain of tho '.scum" of your city, who call themselves "thc Loyal League," wherein is set forth sundry proceedings of thc Maryland Legis? lature, very* distasteful to theso immaculate pa? triots. At the cud of tho memorial is a very hum? ble prayer that your Stato may bc immediately placed "by tho side of tho "ton unrepresented," and to lie hereafter governed by nod under the Republican provisions of tho "Reconstruction" and "Machinery" acta evolved at the lato and prescnt sessions of Congress. It was referred without de? bate. CONGRESS. MONDAY'S PBOCEE?INGS. SENATE.-A motion was adopted requesting the House to return the concurrent- resolution passed by the Sonato, providing for an. adjournment until December next. Tho object of .-this action was lo see if an earlier day could not be Axed for the re? assembling of Congress. The bill to increase the force in the Patent Office was taken up, amended, and passed. The resolution authorizing tho sale of American vessels to friendly. belligerents was talton up, discussed, and laid ?side. Thc resolu? tion of tho House in relation tc adjournment was read and referred to the Comm?tee on the Judicia? ry. A resolution from the "Gfand Union League of Maryland," asking that the provisions ot the Military Rsconstrucfaon Bill aie. made to apply io that State, was also read and referred to the Com? mittee on the Judiciary. A notion was made to take up the Senate resolution rel at i ve to adjourn? ment, out it was decided to awi.it tho action of tho Judiciary Committee on tho House resolution be? fore taking any additional action on the subject. The Senate then went into executive session, and at its close adjourned. y HOUSE OP REPBESEOTATIVES.--Under the call of States for bills and joint resolutions a number of each were introduced and referred to appropriate committees. Tue Committee--on Claims was 'in? structed to inquire into' the legality of a commis? sion now in session in the War Department, which IB reported to have awarded damages on claims of citizens in Southern States... A bill was passed' to provide a temporary government for the territory of Montana and to change tho location of tho capi? tal of the same. A joint resolution was passed providing that each House of Congress give con? sent to the other to adjourn on Thursday, the 28th instant, until the first Wednesday respectively in May, June, September, October and November, unless tho President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House shall, by joint proclamation, issued ten days before the time'above named, declar? that there is no occasion for tho meeting of Congress on the days designated. A resolution was passed granting to H. A. Smytho, Collector of tho port of New York, the privilege of appearing before tho committee, pending tho investigation in his case, either in person or-by connseL A bill was passed providing for dredge boats to be stationed at the mouths of the Mississippi River to keep open the channels. A concurrent resolution was passed directing that all unexpend? ed moneys in the Navy Department be covered by warrant m the Treasury Department. A memorial from.the Maryland Legislature,.and also a serios of resolutions adopted by tfca "Union League" of the State, were presented and ordered to be print? ed. The Senate bill making appropriation to sup? ply deficiencies in thc contingent expenses of that body was taken up, amended and passed. A reso? lution was passed requesting the people of tho Southern States to insert in the ne.? constitutions, when adopted, a provision providing ior schools open to all persons. The Senate -joint rc j oin ti on providing that no.person ia the diplomatic service ' of the United States shall wear at any foreign court any uniform other than that prescribed by Con? gress. A number of facetious amendments were offered by various members -and rejectee! by the House. The resolution was finally passed without amendment. The House apon after adjourned. The Tribune on Sb'* Abbott's Coup d'Etat. The following, from the New Tork Tribune, is a well merited rebuke of the Black Republican boot lick and flunkey, the renowned JOHN S. C. ABBOTT. Our readers, we feel assured, will read the castiga? tion with much satisfaction: .MB. ABBOTT'S COUP D'ETA?.-It isn't every Yan? kee who can storm the doors ot tho Imperial pal? ace, and intrench himself in the Imperial closet; and it is a little queer tha?, while tho royal resi? dence has been broken into oftener than any other human habitation in Paris, the person io break into it the most successfully should be an Ameri? can clergyman; Other visitors in other times thc august occupant of the hour would have kicked ont, if he could; but. cur conquering compatriot was received, as he takes pains, to inform ns,' "with.the most grattiyin?cordiality," Chronology ls not without its coincidences. It waa' in February that -Napoleon' I, having ' smashed the Council of Sive Hundred,. went to housekeeping in the Tuileries ; it was also in Fobniory. that uhe Reverend. John ; S. 0,. Abbott called upon Napoleon HI. Upon leaving the presence, our historian wrote a long private letter to a friend .in New Haven, portraying bis emotions and detailing the speech which he made upon this thrilling occasion.; This letter, as a, matter of course, the friend hais sent to the news? papers-a perfectly prober proceeding. Why.; should the social circles ofrNew Haven hayo a mo? nopoly of this interesting production ?, Why ehould such ? contribution to'hietory be hidden in any? body's breeches pockets ? .' Why should the public bp diddled. out of tho delights of this charming epistle ? We bav? only ona fault to find The lot? ter should have been published in Harper's Maga? zine, with pictorial illustrations. "Ho received me by the fireside," says Mr. Abbott, touchingly. A picture of the fireplace,, with the great American upon one side and thereat Frenchman upon tho other, would have sold an enormous edition of tho magazine. Considering all that they have done for Mr. Abbott, the Franklm-Bquare people have a reasonable right to complain that tho Livy of their pages did not send the narrative directly to them ; and there is a pleasure m thinking that ho bas a more elaborate effort, (with cuts) in reserve. The first:tbmgvwhicn his imperial 'Majesty did after receiving Air, Abbott- ''in onesof the interior parlors of the palace," was to thank - bim for writ nag: the Life of Napoleon IL,', and for the justice done by my pen to the Emperor." That so great a man should be obliged to wait for historical justice until the advent of * o small a one, will remind the reader uf the lion who was caught in a net, and of the mouse who liberated the mighty prisoner. A largo number of Frenchmen have expatiated upon the glory of tho Emperor, but Mr. Abbott has been tho first to raise him to the rank ot a moral and religious character ; and it is- this which makes the perusal of the "Life" a perpetual and amusing Burpr.se. The apologies of Mr. Abbott have tho relitih of comedy. Weare always looking forward to the mollification of murder, ti nd aro constantly curious to know by what fino name tho next vil? lainy will bo dignified. We revet m ti-? metainor ?hosie of falsehood, and, after the execution of the lue d'Enghoin has received Mr. Abbott's extenua? tions, wo havo perfect confidence in bis O.d Bailey capacity. Wo do not remember that Mr. Abbott has occa? sion to mention the fondness of his hero for cheat? ing at cards ; but if it had been necessary, he ?B just tho writer to prove conclusively that ms Ma? jesty revoked to tue glory of God, and made niin denfs for the honor of France. Mr. Abbott is not ono of tho greatest, but he is one of the most un? scrupulous of the new school-of historical white washers, who btart with the .presumption that the world has beon all wrong/and who show their skill and ingenuity by setting it right. It is to be regretted that professional delicacy has prevented him from try in cr his hand upon . the devil. There aro yet'neat things to ho said in behalf of that sa? ble personage, whose deeds, it it true, were ovil, but whose talents were of the highest order. He met ono dark day with his Waterloo-pray how long must he wuit for a sympathetic historian. Mr. Abbott, hoing face to taco with the Emperor, made a loner speech, of which he insorts a report . in his letter. Tho subject of this speech <was tho lifo and adventures of Louis Napoleon. :"Whon I reflect,"" said ME Abbott, "upon the birth of your Majesty in Paris/' &c, ?cc. The historian must have I gone on reflecting for about half an hom-. Ho re? flected upon Strasbourg and Boulogne, upon the Castle of Ham, upon the .Mexican question, and upon anumbor of other disagreeable subjects; but the imperial h o ct stood it ali, apparently without ir? ritation, and submitted to bo soaped with the^best possible grace, cor does ho appear to have winced evon when Mr. Abbott most unnecessarily lugged in tho cow? d'etat by tho hoad and shoulders, and pro? tested that it was beautiful. But this was not all. Being in for it, this Christian minister determined to go tho entire animal. As ho had swallowed so much, ho made no bones of Moxico, rowed that it was a shame that tho Moxicans would not submit to Maximilian, declared that his own government "had mado a great mistake*' in not lending moral support to tho Empire,'and then, being seized Dy a spirit ol prophecy, he predicted "a state of chro? nic anarchy" into which these most unreasonable Mexicans must be plunged. Imperial Majesty listened and ''expressed his assent," which was a very handsomo thing to do. "Wo wonder what he was thinking of when ho expressed it. For sixty ininu'es, ae he informs us, did Mr. Ab? bott remain cloistered with tho monarch, and during that time he made the following sagacious discovery: "Tho Emperor looked decidedly older than when i saw him fourteen years ago." ThiB ia very singular. Pray, did Mr. Abbott expect to find him looking younger? However, it ie a comfort to know that his Majesty docs not grow stingy as he grows old, for he presented to Mr. Abbott "a copy of all hie published works," wh.ch wo trust Congress will allow the doneo to briug home with? out paying any duty. "The Emperor," says Mr. Abbott, "is, intellectually, one o? tho most highly cultivated mon in Europe." It takes ono man of genius to fini out another. But wo must bring our sketch of this pleasing event, so flattering to our national pride, to a conclusion. Mr, Abbott has since been to a pub? lic reception, and thc Emperor shook hands with him in the presence of four thousand spectators. Every ono of thom, no doubt, half mad with envy, "for," sa\sMr. Abbott, "this waa an honor which was not conferred upon any one else." Throe thou? sand nine hundred andniuoty-nine courtiers, brave or beautiful, went to bed disgusted with life and the coldness of thoir aovoreigu, while Mr. Abbott (with the much-favored right hand, which we sup? pose that ho will nevor waBh again) sat down to writo tho record of his lofty luck for tho delecta? tion of New Haven. It must havo been a severe trial of the humility which wo naturally look for in a Congregational clergyman. Mr. Abbott must re? member that ho is but a man ! THE NEW CHUBCH BELL_On Saturday afternoon we heard the peal of a strange bell, and upon en? quiry found it waa the now boll of tho Associate Keforro Church. The new boll has a cloar tone. This evidence of reconstruction all aro glad to hail. U now wc had the swoot-tonod bell which used to call together tho congregation of thc Episcopal Church, (that old bell which suffered in two migh? ty revolutions,) wo would all rcjoico in thc music of thc bells on thc Sabbath morn, which used to reverberate among thc neighboring hills and val? leys.- Winnsboro News. A paragraph is going tho rounds of thc pres? says the New York Times, starintr that "Mr. L. \V. JEROME has fulled-that ho has disposed of his in? terest in the Times establishment, and on Saturday made an assignment of his banking effects/' It originated, wc believe, with tho Keening tiazeltt ofthis city.
