The Paris correspondent of the Chicago Tri? bune writes : The Emperor, Empress and Prince Imperial, now that the weather is fine, drive out nearly every day along the Champs Elysees and in the Bois. Familiar as their appearance s to the public, the streets are always lined wheo it is k iown they are to pa-s. The Prince is an intelligent and interesting looking little fellow, with an expression of sad? ness in his face that may be the harald of bis coming doom. He is in better health thatr?ie has been, bot is still suffering from bodily in? firmities. His mother dotes on bim. Oae can see her heart is centred in her only son, for her eyes are always on him. Louis Napoleon may be dying of the forty or fifty mortal diseases with whiob the newspa? pers are constantly supplying him: but, judg? ing by bis appearance, they don't hurt him much. He is verv common-place in semblance; his eye dull and his face perfectly impassive. He might well be mistaken for a Hebrew clothes-dealer of long experience, who bavin? turned his attention to governing a great cour: - try, had resolved to matte 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 seems in? ca p*bio of supporting the weight that has been so unnaturally thrust upon thom. I do not believe he is unpopular with the Fioiioh peo ' ' pie, who are hound to have a certain amount of Briitioal discontent whether a Napoleon or a ero reigns over them. Louie may be a su? preme egotist, but he loves France; bas oap tainly done muob for his country and for Parn. He has made this the most attractive city in world, de amuses the people and has added to tbe glory of the nation. What mora do Frenchmen need; what more will they ask ? Eugenie is showing the traces of years-it may be of sorrow-and she is repairing them by artificial means. Sbe is not so pretty aa abe has been, but ehe is very elegant and i distingue in ber manner and entourage. Her face sometimes seems insipid, but it] guts up, wnea *be is moved, as it her heart bad canent fire. Her mouth and chin are beautiful, and in her deep eye are unfathomable emotions. She hap tragedy and comedy in her nature, and is ca? pable of heroic things, I am confident. She will do them, I believe, if the occasion ?ornes to her, and live in the future his:orv ot France with Joan d'Arc, Charlotte Coruay. and Madime Boland. Eugenie is muo.i loved by the people, though the soandal is Billi kept np that her husband is not the father of hex child. They may like ber all the better for that possi? bility. They would be moat unjust not to for g ve in her what tbev are ftflteed to condone ?icmsolvop. She ia much tiered from what s'ie was. She bas gone tbrongh tba three stages ot French womanhood-gallantry, learning and devotion. Aa the Connu BB de Teba, she was decidedly fast. After mariage, she grew to be a ban olen, though little was said of it. Now she i s extremely religious, and daily becoming more so. HEALTH or NEW YOBK.-There wera six hun? dred and forty-three deaths in New York last week, an increase o' one hundred over the previous weak. A letter from that oity says : The health board admit that thora wara three oases of cholera, but declined to say whether lt was cholers morbu? or of thc Asiatic type. It ia no secret that a ?rrea? manv sud? den (?oaths have occurred within the law days Eis i from complaint? strongly resembling tne tier, and to these the largely increased mor? tality officially announced is by many parsons attributed. If the Board of Health wonld ro* tura.to tba former practice of publishing the dises aas, aa well aa the total number of deaths, the public mind, tn oases of this kind, would be lesa anxious than it is when left, a? now, to grope in the dark. TUE H Ul- E OE MAMMON. '1 he Knglism Church on the Auction Bi oe Ic Hie London Te loin apb says: Tho purchase system is enwoven-shall we beautifully say lile a golden tbread?-with many British institutions. For- the loyal luxury of solving his sover?ign, ensign, lieu? tenant, captain, majoi or hen tenant-colonel, au English gentium m a?su hus to pay certain surns, regu a?ed by the Horse Guards, and ab n"certain sum ruled bv the stat*Vwf the com? missi m m rket, where swords are sold to the highest bidder, and "Take, then, the sabre," is her Majesty's spirit-stirring address to the buyer who has roost money in his pur e. Then we all know that there is a tariff for seats ia the Boase of Commons; some boroughs "jule high," others are ' firm," while parch n sable. * * * But of ail kinds ot' British purchase none must seem so strango to a foreign ob? server as the sale of advowaons in tho English Church. Centuries have elapsed since the Apostles were sent forth to pi each, and the early ideal of the Christian priest and mission? ary has been often travestied, sometimes terri? bly, sometimes coarsely, hy wicked or woildly men. Nevertheless, in all clim ches the cid standard is avowed. . People do still consider that a minister of religion is a man tbat holds himsolf commissioned by Divine authority to preach the Gospel and administer the rites of tho Christian Church. Face to lace with this still potent belief, we luve the exroordinary fact that tho sacred right is openly offered for sale ; that the greatest pub? lican and sinner lu the City of London may buy tho next right of presentation to a living, and may exercise the power of appointment. His money may have been made in any ot the vile ways within the wide boundary of our loose, elastic law; but the gold does not smell, ano he purchases the right of placing at one of God's altars any creature of his own-perhaps some clerical companion ot his festive boara, perhaps some silly or iunately vicious relative of bis bouse. But, independently of this fre? quently deplorable result, the open sale is surely amont? the grossest scandals of our day. The aotioneer endeavors to show off the mul tifaxious "attractions" of the living, and those 1 attractions1 are the very reverse of such as wonld be supposed to influence a zealous or a religious man. We are told that the souls to be saved are few, that the "duties are light," ? hat the "society" and even the "hunting" is good. The "rectory and vicarage of Wea tho? rough, with that of Dry Doddmgton," were thus praised at an auction mart on Tuesday last; but the biddings were elaok. Intending purchasers were told that one hundred poonda sterling a year would pay a curate to discharge the duties, leaving six hundred pound a year of surplus for the rector; while tue present rec? tor was seventy-three, and therefore must soon die; still the bidders paused, and the -'prop ar? ty" was withdiawn. Thea? shameful scenes are not rare; they occur in the metropolis at least once a week, aad the "religious," or ner? ti apa we ought to say the clerical journals, abound witn tbe latest reports from the markst of souls. The origin of this gross evil ie explainable enough, and the theory is not half so bad as the practice itself. Strictly speaking, the auc? tioneer does not sell the fight to minister at the altar m a particular parish; be simply sells the "right of the next presentation;'' that is, the puiohaser may "present" to the bishop an ordained clergyman of the Church of England for induction into the living. . If the bishop discovers in the candidate any grave moral or theological defect, he may legally refuse in? duction; but the usual tancertainty of British law hang? around this right, aiid it is, there? fore, rarely exercised. - -*? 9?????? - THE CUERA W A^lt?^fiAlrlIB3VRY ; . , RAJJL&OAH. A meeting of the citizens of Bowan County, N. C., was held on July 5 for the purpose of J promoting the construction of the Cheraw and Salisbury Railroad. The meeting was organized by calling John L Shaver, Esq., to the chair. John S. Hender? son, Esq., being appointed secretary. Major W. M. Robbins explained the object of the meeting in brief and appropriate language, and than introduced the president of the road, Colonel Townsend. He first gave a history of tbe circumstances under which a onarter for a railroad to the Coalfield from Cheraw had been obtained-that after the location of said road, the stockholders of the Cheraw and Darlington, the Northeastern Railroads, and the Chamber of Commerce of Charleston thought said road would be but of little value for freight, and that it was all-important to get a charter from Cheraw to Salisbury, and that in accordance with this view he succeeded in getting a char? ter from the Legislatures of North and Sooth Carolina. He was satisfied that the road could be graded and made ready for the cross-ties and iron for $500,000, and that when graded a mortgage could be given on the io..d for a sam sumen nt to pat it in running order. Be 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 bad the bonds of the Cheraw and Darlington, and the Northeastern Roads foi $320,000 With this sum, tbe road could be graded to Wadosboro', and then only sixty miles would remain to be built. He*] showed that when this read was completed, we would be muoh nearer Wil nington and Charleston than by any other route. Colonel T. demonstrated that this road would be good stock, for it would carry the freight for the Eroduco coming over the Western North Caro? na Road, and by its construction the valley of the Mississippi would find the Bbortest out? let to the Atlantic coast. He exp atned that under the provisions ot the charter persons could subscribo land to the road and receive tbe value thereof in stock, and could take con? tracts to be paid in labor. He showed what railroads had done for other placee, and could see no reason woy Salisbury would not like? wise be greatly benefitted by the construction of this road, anl urged our citizens to act promptly and thus add materially to their own prosperity. * ? At the conclusion of this address, Colonel T. announced the following as the Commissioners to obtain subscriptions for the Cheraw and Salisbury Railroad in Rowan county, viz :. John I. Shaver, A. J, Kock. J. W. Hall, W. H. Craw? ford and Thomas B, Long. Brief an 4 appropriate addresses were then made by Ur. Lafayette Green, ot Stanley, Mr. Dixon Ingram, of Anson. Colonel W. F. Hen* derson and Major Hobbins. Colonel Townsend stated that it was neces? sary for Rowan to raise $1600 at once in oidor to pat the engineers immediately to work. About half the amount was raised on the spot, which shows work begun. - COTTON S ra AUNO TN MOW YOBK.-A corres? pondent write* as follows to the Hew York Journal of Commerce : Complaint is often made of lotees in the weight of cotton, t'o-dav while looking out of | mv office window I saw a BO UI ion bf this whole dthoulty. Opposite there ia a cotton ware? house (and there are several oihers io the neighborhood.) and 1 saw the thieves stealing the cotton as it came from tne wirebou-ie. The word stealing tells the whole story I All hands steal. The caitmen, the laborers, the samplers, and hosts of gin ls and bove and men and women that are banging around, all steal. And ihe warehousemen themselves wink at it, if they do not profit by this wholesale stealing. If you will epend a few mau ates at mv office almost any day you may witness ail that I h .ve detailed above. At the same time, probably, yen mav see a policeman leisurely wallang by ignorant of ali that ie going on. A short time since I called the attention of a police? man to a case of cotton stealing, and he told me that he would not arrest a cotton thief ir he saw one in the tot. Bia txonse woe that the Police Justice would not notice him, and that he wonld get nothing but abase for his paine, and tbat ;? he persisted in doing bte daly be could not keep his placo three months. Tile ie a dreadful condition of things. In my neighborhood are several placee where thia stolen cotton ie openly bought, and the tbi ves can be eena going in aud oat at ali times of the dav, and their business ls no teeret. This city will suffer IB ?M business unless shit thin'/ ia stopped. It is not safe to send cotton to SI >w York for sale. I would not do so. and woatd advise ray friends not to do so, unless % stop could be put do thia wholesale thieving. A. F J?A. I KS IN TUS STATIS. Murtoa.
