PROPOSED BXTORMS IN FRANCE - MESSAGE OB THE BMPKBQB TO THE Co RP i LVQHLATIF, PARIS, July 12.-In the Corps L?gislatif to? day a message from the Emperor Mapolean was presented and read by Minister Ronner.

Similar questions with respect to the Beasts are here? after to be considered. Tbe Emperor believes th?se measures will meet all demands. In conclusion, hs asks the Deputies to con? siders how often he has abandoned certain of his own prerogatives in the pubho interest for those already granted, which form an integral part of the institutions of the Empire; they ought to leave intact those rights whian ha vo boen explicitly confided to him by the people, sod which axe the essential conditions of power, and the safeguard of order and society. The message announced no change m the Ministry.

THE FRENCH IMPERIAL FAMILY. G os? lp ?boat Napoleon, Eugenie and the Prince Imperial-Their Prevent Per? sonal Appearance. The Paris correspondent of the Chicago Tri? bune writ03 : The Emperor, Empress and Prince Imperial, now that the weather is flue, drive out nearly every day alone the Champs Elysees and in the Bois. Familiar as their appearance s to the public, the streets are always lined when it is k lown they are to pa-e. The Prinoe is an intelligent and interesting looking utile fellow, witb an expression of sad? ness m his face that may be the herald of his ^coming doom. He is in better health than he has been, bat ie still suffering from bodily in? firmities. His mother dotes on him. Oue can see her heart is centred in her only son, lor her eyes are always on him. Louis Napoleon may be dying of the forty or fifty mortal diseases with which the newspa? pers are constantly supplying him; but, judg? ing by his appearance, they don't hurt him much. He is verv common-place in semblance; his eye dull and bis face perfectly impassive. He might well be mistaken for a Hebrew clothes-dealer of long experience, who. bavin r turned his attention to governing a great coun? try, had resolved to ma?e bis intentions in? scrutable. He reminds yon of one of Cham's caricatures, with his broad shoulders and great body, and his short, little legs that s jeni a in? capable of supporting tho weight thal ha? been so unnaturally thrust upon thom. I do not believe he is unpopular with tbe Preach peo? ple, who are bound to h RVS a certain annuut of political discontent whether a Napoleon or a Nero reigns over them. Louis may be a su? preme egotist, but he loves France; bas cer tain ly done much for his country and tor Paris. He has made this the most attractive city in world. He amuses tbe people and has added to the glory of the nation. What more do Frenchmen need; what more will they ask ? Engenie is showing the traces of years-it mtv be of sorrow-aud sha is repairing them by artificial means. She ?B not so pretty as abe has been, but she is very elegant and distingue in her manner and entourage. Her lace sometimes seems insipid, but it 1 guts up w>en Bhe is urned, as il her heart had caught fire. Her mouth aud chin are beautiful, and m her deep eye are unfathomable eoaoi ons. Shu h ?s tragedy and comedy in her nature, and is ca? pable of heroic things, I nm confident. Ste will do them. I believe, if the ccaMon comes to her and live in the future his orv ot France with Joan d'Arc, Charlotte Ooruav. and Mad imo Roland. Eugenie is mue i loved by the people, though the scandil is si ill kept up tnat ber husband is not the father of bei child They may hue her all the botter for that possi? bilit?. They would be most unjust not to f>r g ve m her wb.it thev are forced to condone memselvc?. She is much ni ertd lroin ?bat siiewas. She bas gone through the three stages ot Fren eli womanbood-gullantrv. learning and devotion. As tho Countess de leba, she was decidedly fast. After mariage, abe grew to bj a bas bleu, though little wa? said of it. Now she ia extremely religious, and daily bec mug morn so. HEALTH OF NEW YORK.-There were six hun? dred and forty-three deaths in Now York last week, an increase o' one hundred over the previous week. A letter from that city says : Ibo health board admit that there were throe cases of chotera, but declined to eav whether it was cholera morbn- or of tho Asiatic type. It is no secret that a crea1 manv sud? den deathB bave occurred within the tew days pas: from complaint* strom?ly resembling tao latter, and to these the largely increased mor? tality officially announced is by many persons attributed. If the Board of Health would re? turn to the former practice of publishing the diseases, as well as the total number of doat hs. tho public mind, in cases of thia kia l, wonld be lees anxious than it is when left, us now, to grope in tho dark. TUE EVLE Ol MA M .noy. Tne t. n g I Uli Church on the Auction Block. Ibo London Telegraph s?ys: The purchase- e.\ Hiern is enwoven-shall we beautifully say lile a golden thread?-with many British institutions. For the loyal luxury of serving bis sovereign, ensign, lieu? tenant, captain, major or hen tenant-colonel, an English gentlemm also bas to pay certain sums, regu'ated by the Horse Guards, and an uncertain Bum ruled hy the state of the com? missi m urrket, where swords are Bold to the highest bidder, and "lake, then, tbe sabre," is her Majesty's spirit-stirring address to the buyer who bas most money in his pur e. Then we all know that there is a tariff for ?eats in the Bouse of Commons; some boroughs "rule high," others are ''firm," while purchasable. * * * Bul of all kinds of British purchase none must seem so strange to a foreign ob? server as the Bale of advowsons in the English Chuica. Centuries have elapsed since tbe Apostles were sent forth to preach, and the early ideal of the Christian priest and mission? ary has been often travestied, sometimes terri? bly, sometimes coarsely, by wicked or woildly men. Nevertheless, in all cb ni ches the old standard is avowed. People do still consider that a minister of religion is a man tbat holds himself cammie e ion ed by Divine authority to preach the Gospel and administer the rites of the Christian Church. Face to face with this btiil potent belief, we have tbe exiraordinary fact that the sacred right is openly offered for sale ; that the greatest pub licau and sinner in the City of London may buy the next right of presentation to a living, and may exercise the power of appointment. His money may have been made in any of the vile ways within the wide boundary of our loose, elastic Jaw; but the gold does not smell, and he purchases the right ot placing at one of | God s altars any craature of his oven-perhaps some clerical companion ot his festive heure, perhaps some silly or innately vicious relative of bis bouse. But, independently of this fre? quently deplorable result, the open sale is surely anon? the grossest scandals of our day. The actioneer endeavors to show off the mul? tifarious ''attractions" of the h vin er, and those * attractions'' are the very reverse of such as would be supposed to influence a zealous or a I religious man. We are told that the souls to be saved are few, that the "duties are light," rhat the ..society" and even the ' hunting" is good. The "rectory and vicarage of Westbc rough, with that of Dry Dod dm g ton," were thus Draine J at an auction mart on Tuesday last; but the biddings were slack. Intending purchasers were told that one hundred pounds sterling a year would pay a curate to discharge the duties, leaving six hundred pound a year of surplus for the rect >r ; while tue present rec? tor was seventy-tbree, aud therefore must soon die; still the bidders pu used, and the ''proper? ty* was withdrawn. Thes? shameful scenes are not rare; they occur in the metropolis at least once a week, and the ''religions," or der baps we ought to say the clerical journals, abound with tbe latest reports from the m ark 31 of souls. The origin ot this gross evil is explainable enontrh, and ?he theory is not half so bad as the practice itself. Strictly Bpeekiug, the auc? tioneer does not sell the ngnt to minister at the altar in a particular pariah; he simply sells the 'Tight of the next cresent at iou;'' that is, the pm chaser may "present" to the bishop an ordained clergyman of the Church of England I for induction imo the bring. If the biohop discovers in the candidate anv grave moral or theological defect, he may legally remue in? duction; but tbe usual uncertainty of British law banes around this right, aid it is, tbere I fore, rarely exercised. THE CH EE AW AND SALISBURY EAILROAJD. North Carolina. Bloving. A meeting of the citizens of Bowan County, rf. C., was held ou July 5 for the purpose of | promoting the construction of the Cberaw and Salisbury Railroad. The meeting was organized by calling John L shaver, Esq., to 1 he chair. John 8. Hender? son, Esq.. being appointed secretary. Major W. M. Bobbins explained the object of the meeting in brief and appropriate language, and then introduced (be president of the road. Colonel Townsend. He first gave a history of the circumstances under which a onarter for a railroad to the Coalfield from Cberaw had been obtained-that after the location of said road, the stockholders of the Chen w and Darlington, the Northeastern Railroads, and the Chamber of Commerce of Charleston thought said road would be but of little value for freight, aud that it was all-important to get a charter from Cberaw to Salisbury, and that in accordance with this view be succeeded in getting a char? ter from the Legislatures of North and Booth Carolina. He was satisfied that the road could bo traded and made ready for the cross-ties and iron for $500,000, and that when graded a mortgage could be given o > the io. d for a sum sumen nt to put 11 m running order. He showed that first mortgages on railroads were largely sought after by capitalists as the safest investments for their money. That the road could and would be built, Colonel T. thought would not admit of a doubt. The road was already graded for ten miles, and had tho bonds of the Cbera>v aud Darlington and the Northeastern Roads loi $320,000 With this sum, the road could be graded to Wadesboro', and thsn only sixty miles would remain to bo built. He showed that when this read was completed, we would be much nearer Wilmington and Charleston than bv any other route. Colonel T. demonstrated that this road would be good stock, for it would carry the freight for the produce coming over the Western Not tb Caro? lina Road, and by its construction the valley of the Mississippi would find the shortest out? let to the Atlantic coast. He exp ained that under the provisions ot the charter persons could subscribe lund to the road and receive tbe value thereof in stock, and could take con? tracts to be paid in labor. He snowed what railroads had done for other places, and could seo no reason wny Salisbury would not like? wise be greatly benefitted by the construction of this road, an t uiced our citizens to act promptly and thus add materially to their owu prosperity. At tbe conclusion of this address, Colonel T. announced the following as the Commissioners to obtain subscriptions for the Cberaw and Salisbury Railroad in Rowan county, viz : John L Shaver. A. J. Mock. J. W. Hall, W. H. Craw? ford and Thomas B. Long. Brief an appropriate addresses wore then made by Mr. Lafayette Green, ol Stanley, Mr. Dixon Ingram, of Anson. Colonel W. F. Hen? derson aud Major Hobbins. Culorel Townsend stated that it was neces? sary for Rowan to raise $1500 at once in order to put tho engineers immediately to work. About half the amount was raised on the spot, which bhows work begu>. Conos STEALING VU NEW YORK.-A corres I pondent writes as folowB to the Mew York Journal o? Commerce : Complaint is often made of looses in tie weight of cotton, lo-dav while looking out of mv office window 1 saw aso u ion of this whole dfficulty. Opposite there is a cotton ware? house (and there aro social 0 hers in the neighborhood.) aud I ?aw the thieves st ci ling thecottO'i as it came from the w trebonne. Hie word stea'ing tells tho whole story 1 All hands sieal. The catt men. the laborers, the t-amplers. and hosts or girls and bo>s. and men -md women that aro banging around, all steal. And the warehousemen themselves wink at it, if they do not profit by this wholesale stealing. It'you wi. 1 spend a few miujtes at mv office almost any day you may witness all that T h ?ve denn ed above. At the same time, probibly, yen mav see a policeman leisurely walking by ignorant of all that is goin/ on. A short time siuce I called tho attention of a police? man to a case ot cotton stealing, and he told me that he would not arrest a oot ton thief if he saw one in the 'Ct. His txouse was that tho Police Justice wouM not notice bim. and that ho would get nothing but abuse for his pains and tbat if be persisted m doing his dnty he could not keep his place three months. Tl is is a dreadful conditiou of things, lu my neighborhood are several places where this stolen cotton is openly bought, and the thi ves ran bo seen going in und out at all times of the day. and their business is no secret. This city will Buffar in its busmess unless ihi-i tu in ir m stopped. It it> not sate to s^-Dd cotton to li sw YorK for sale. I wo'ild not do so and would advise my friends not to do so, unless a s.op could be put to this wholesale thieving. AFFAIRS IN TUF STATE. Marlon. The Crescent says : "During the last week the weather has been intensely bot, and altbongb tbere bare been showers in some neighborhoods, generally it is distressingly dry. Corn ia now suffering severely, and un? less we get rain very soon the yield must be greatly diminished. Our reports from Little KOCK and tho northern part of the district, are that the crops are suffering seriously from the drousht." Hie Mai ?OD Star notices the explosion of one ot the new kerosene lamps on the public square of that village a few nights ago. Horry. The editor of the Horry News has made a trip through this section and says : "Leaving Con way boro- we passed over the Dog Bluff Hoad to tbe Peedee Bo id. thence up to Mount Zion. The country a few miles from Con day? boro' gave evidence of a severe drought. 2 be corn was dying, the tassels and upper blades being dry in a great deal of it. The under? growth in the woods was dead in many plac3s, and even large blackjacks were dead fro n tbe heat of the son and dryness of tbe soil. The 'huckleberry' bushes are dead in many places, wbich fact cast a shadow of gloom over oor future prospect of Jiving. The farms on this road had oeen well cultivated, but will pro? duce nothing unlesB rain is had at an early day. The rains that have fallen at Con way boro'within the past month, and that have been so favorable in this locality, did not ex? tend six miles from the place in that direction. On tbe Peedee Road, where lie tbe best lands in the county, the crops are suffering even worse, and cannot make more than one-ball a crop should rain fall regularly from this tune." The Horry News says : "Vye learn that a fire br ike out beyond Crab Tree Swamp, on last Saturday, and burned up several thousand bar? rel staves and beading belonging to Meas?. Gurganus & Burroughs. & Are also broke oat about the same tune in Socaatee neighborhood. The great dre in Allsaints bas ?bated. The scope of country burned in that Are was eigh? teen miles in length and about twelve m breadth. The lands over which it passed is literally destroyed. The bear and deer from that section have taken shel er ID tbe swamp of tbe Waccamaw. Several de: r were brought to this market last week that are supposed to have been refugess from that fire. We have also beard of several bears that have crossed over on this side of the river. Look ont for vour hogs. People shou'd be very careful of fire this dry weather. We learn that tbe fires mentioned resulted from carelessness in cat? ting and taking bee trees." A SAI* ROMANCE. A Princesa lat ? Beer Saloon. The New Orleans Picayune says : Some years since tbe daughter of Prinoe Henry of Beuu Ores, a small German princi? pality m the middle of Germany, became deep ly attached to ? young subaltern who command? ed the auDUil contingent furnished the army of the Bing of Prussia. Of course, all thought of marrying him with the consent of the Prince was out of the question; bat it was ar? ranged that the yoong lieutenant should re? sign his position in the army, and together they would escape to tbe United States. Em? ba? king at Antwerp, they came to New Turk and were roamed there. Bat being young and without experience in the wa vs of the world, their Utile means were soon exhausted, a id they found themselves in a strange land, friendless and in poverty. Tbey were afraid to osmmui.icate with any of their co un tn men, lest the circumstances of their flight should become known, and them? selves arrested. Unacquainted with oar laws, and supposing that the authority of tbeir petty prince was as potent here as among th 9 grain fields of their native land, tbey sought obscu? rity and shrunk from their names and staUon being blazoned abroad. At last, pushed to the extre ne of poverty, the busband, who was an excellent mus .dan, obtained a sitaitioo in the orchestra at fciblo's Garden, bat, learning that inquines bad b:en made by tbe Prussian Con sal of tbeir presence in the city, be threw ap his engagement and came South, and in the eammi-r of1867 fell a victim to the yellow fe? ver. Hu wife was now left alooe, and, re? duced to the extreme verge of poverty, applied and obtained a situation in a beer saloon m this city, wbere she now is. It '3 a strange episode in real life, but a true one and exhibits, as no moralist could de? scribe, the vicissitudes of fortune. She is now, perhaps, twenty-five years of ace; small tn sta? ture, w th an elegant symmetrical figure, and face decidedly pretty. Her face is shaded wu h light brown curls, and her manners and con? versation evince one ace us to cneo to good Socie? ty. She displays a good deal of reluctance in talking to strangers, bat once interested in conversation sbe becomes animated and en? gaging. She se err s to feel her questionable position very sensibly, and the slightest allu? sion as to what she was, and is no v, is suffi? cient to provoke ber to tears. -North Germany has Boat a diplomatic agent to Mexico to conclude a treaty of corn mere between the two nations.

There wis a Unie when for every dereliction of duty it wee punish'd ? itu huge doses of the most disgusting and nauseous drugs. In vain it rejected them, ind (literally) returned them upon the bands ot those who administered them. They were forced upoa lt again and again, until its solvent power was thoroughly drenched out of it Tho world ls wiser now than it was in that drastic era, when furious purgation and mercurial salivation were what Artemus Ward would have called the "main holt" of the faculty, in cases of dyspepsia and liver complaint The great modern remedy for indigestion and bil? iousness la H"STETrER\s STOMACH BITTERS, a pr?par?t iou wi ich has the merit of combining a pal? atable flavor with such tonic.aperient and antibil iouJ proper tie0, as were never heretofore united in any medicine.

When an in? valid is pros'rated by powerful depleting drugs, he ia ap* to etay prostrated; ai d the debilitated being aware ol the fact, prefer the building up to the knock? ing down ays t<-m of treatment. HOSTETTER'S BTXTrBS meets the requirements of the rational medical philosophy which at present prevails. It isa perfectly pure vegetable remedy, embracing I he three important properties of a pre? ventive, a tonic and an alterative. It fortifies the b dy against disease, invigorates and revitalizes the torpid stomach and liver, and effects a most saluta? ry chanae in ihe entire system, when in a morbid condition. In rammer, wheu thc enfeebling temperature ren d rs the hnmin organization partl'ularly suscepti? ble to unwholesome aimo-pberic influences, the Bit? ters shou'd be taken as a protection against epidemic disease. nae G July iU 49- M ARE N GO.-F EVER AND AGUE CURE.
