The olive crop will be large this season. -The New York Evening Post, discussing the reign of terror in Scranton, well says : '.Surely the condition of society in any^the most disturbed of the Southern States, is peace and freeaom as compared with that in north? ern Pennsylvania." -Tne New York Herald says tile prospects of the Democracy for carrying the next Presi? dential election depends upon the Southern members, as the party in the North and the Congressmen from all sections, as shown in their address, are on the right track. -The Emperor of Brazil is likely to have enough won* on his bauds for some time to come. Simultaneous dispatches state that he has been chosen as arbitrator lo settle the Ala? bama claims, and that a revolution has broken out in his own empire, and recently it was stated that he was going to Europe with his wife on a grand tour. -Those who have worn their hats five years will be pleased to see that they are just In fashion again, and those who have pantaloons that they bought in 1848 will be glad to know that they (the pantaloons) will also be, with their elastic footings, the pride of the man of fashion this season, even as they were his pride twenty-three years ago. -They have In China what is known as the grease tree. Large foresis grow there, and the oleaginous product has become an article of traffic. The grease forms an excellent tal? low, burning with a clear, brilliant, and-what is infinitely more to the purpose-white light, and at the same time emitting not a trace ol any unpleasant odor, or of the ordinary disa? greeable accompaniment of combustion, smoke. -The London correspondent of the Man? chester Guardian, writing to that paper, gives Prince Napoleon the credit of having, alone of ail the Imperial entourage discovered In ad? vance the possible danger to the Imperial r?gime. The Prince has recently bought a $100.000 house at Hyde Park, which he has fur? nished with all the choicest furniture, pictures and objects of virtu from his chateau at Meu don. He has aiso recently sold his estate and Chateau in Switzerland for ?70,000, and he now proposes to take up his residence in London. -There ls much that ls farcical in the trage? dy now being played in Paris. A few days since the offices of a gas company were duly seized by a committee from tile Commune, and coolly relieved of all the ready cash. NC cause was assigned lor the procedure. No other was necessary, doubtless, than that the Commune wanted the money. We are now "cabled" that the Commune has.apologized lo the gas company for the recent seizure oi Its cash assets. But, unaccompanied by the.cash itself, this ls an extremely lame apology. The gas company, which was left in darkness as to the seizure, will probably regard tho apology In that light. -A few years ago the Swiss Government published a report on the natural history of Switzerland. Two very distinct species ol' rats were pictured and described; oue was large, plump'and flossy; the other was loan, scrawny aud almost bereft of hair. They Seemed two distinct species. lu the second edition ol the report the rats arc reduced to one. A naturalist had found how the meaner rat was made. One of its ancestors, a good, plump, glossy fellow, had strolled into a tobac? co warehouse and made his abode there; he began to nibble; ' curiosity led him on; he went iront bod to worse, HU you see where ho turned up-ro unlike his grandfather that a naturalist mistakes him for another species-a Warning to ail who nibble tobacco. -Recent letters from Hong Kong in illustra? tion of the general and thorough hosiilUy evinced by Hie Chinese to foreigners, give minute and graphic accounts of thu uvatim m of the English steamer T"'**., which, on lier voyage from Hong Kong to Shanghai, was, on February 13lh, wrecked ou a point of Ocksu Island. The steamer, the weather being loggy, ran aground on i: point of the island,* and Hie Chinese soon assembled in swarms, and stationing themselves ou ihe crags overlook? ing the tieck, commenced throwing stones and other missiles at the passengers and crew. Tile sufferers then look to the boats, and, un? der cover ol' tho darkness and fog, beaded for the nearest coast uot lar from Atnoy. At day? light the four boats were surrounded by fishing j unks, which ran them dowu and staved in their sides. The passengers and crew were then robbed of their money, watches, pro? visions, and even of the grouter part ol the clothes on their persons. The sufferers were then set on shore, and oiler wauderiug about for three days wah trothing to eat, uud meet? ing every wilora with violence and harsh treat? ment, they, fortunately, when ou the point of perishing with cold and hunger*, met with oue Chinaman who fed them add had them guided -to Ainoy at the rate of two dollars for each person. -The Louise Home is the name of a novel and beautiful charity, established in Washing? ton through the munificence of W. W. Corco? ran, Esq. It is-designed, us stated In the deed establlsiiiug the home, mr the maintenance lu comfort ora '.limited number ot gentlewomen who have been reduced by misiortune so as to be proper persons to receive such assistance;" and this design is carriod out with a liberality as rare as lt is generous. A large building, surrounded by handsomely ornamented grounds, has been built on the most sightly spot in Washington, commanding a view far and wide. It is built io the most tasteful style, supplied with all the conveniences of the best modern dwelling houses, and iurnish ed willi real elegance. Thc furniture, ar? rangement and 'upholstery of the various rooms are such as to make it truly a home lor those reared in luxury, and every detail shows a careful consideration for refined ta tes, even to the supply of,cut glass and French china for the table. About thirty-five ladies are ex. peeled as the first occupants, and this number, which includes some who have been belles of Washington, will doubtless be Increased here? after. They will be at no expense except for their clothing; under no restraint except to be in the Home always by 10 at night, (unless they have previously given notice of an In? tention to be absent,) and to be punctual at meals. Mr. Corcoran establishes and endows this Home In memory of his deceased wife and daughter, whose name it bears, and a more graceful and pleasant tribute could not have been conceived. The Paris Riots. To judge of a riot ex cathedra is to mis? represent it. A popular uprising is always a complex movement. The knaves who lead, and tbe fools who follow, must have some device inscribed upon their banner, which shall give an air of respectability and a sem? blance of right to the sudden tumult. Thus, iu the great riot of New York, when the roughs were plundering the man in broad? cloth, and the day laborers were murdering the man in bluvk, a higher order were ma? king speeches against the unconstitutional draft, and were in revolt against the man in blue. These three tributaries fed the. swell? ing and resistless tide of popular violence which swept through the streets' of the great metropolis. In the Paris revolt, also, three distinct classes may ba enumerated. .There is, in the lirst place, the political Parisian, the man against whom thc provincial Mirabeau thundered of old-the man who, ignoring the various nations enclosed within the boundaries of the French Empire, regards the capital as France itself, and, as Thierry bitterly say3, "knows no rights but the rights "declared at Paris, no liberties but the lib? erties sanctioned at Paris, no laws but the "laws made in Paris." He looks with sov? ereign contempt upon an Assembly consist? ing of- a majority of provincials, convened at Versailles away from the local influence or armed interference of Paris, and consti? tuting the power of a government over which M. Thiers, himseir a provincial, pre? sides. These malcontents demand that the Assembly shall cometo Paris, and that Puris, whether as a municipality or a fortress, shall be independent of the national control. Their demands remind one of that familiar song: "Will you come into my parlor, said "the spider to the fly." Jf. Thiers is, in? deed, too old a politician and too good a historian to be caught in such a trap. But he is too narrow a statesman to recognize a real right which is embraced in the Parisian pretensions-the right of municipal self government. At this point he refuses to make a compromise, and just here M. Thiers is iu the wrong. A second class consists of the Parisian workingmen. They are seekiug for what they call "Liberty, Fraternity and Equality" -impressive names under which an active hostility to civilization, and the wildest and most incendiary schemes of social change, ure concealed. During thc Bevolution of '48, this class for a limo received daily pay from the government, through the hands of I M. Louis Blanc, their literary patron, uutil at leuglh the burden of their exactions be? came so crushing that it hud lo be thrown off by a counter revolution. These work? men now constitute the bulk of the twenty five battalions of thc National Guard. The Commune is pledged to give them about 30 cents a day per man, and about 50 cents a day per officer, in time of peace, and at the rate of pay of their rank in the army during j active service. How much that is we have j nu means of knowing. Probably the bank? ers of Puris know but too well. The "ouv 'Tiers,'* or shall we say cormorants, are living upon the public, and ure lighting for the overthrow of social order, and for a com? munity of goods, and, probably, also of wives. But there is a deeper deep. Thc dens of thieves and ruffians, found in every great city, have discharged their occupants. They ure philosophers, who, surpassing Buudhou. have inverted his famous maxim, "Proper "ty is theft;" to them, "theft is capital." Accordingly, they have pillaged individuals, private houses und churches, and perverted to their profane uses the sacred vessels.aud vestments of religion. And, cowards und murderers as well as thieves, they have us Bassinuted unarmed generals, toni to pieces defenceless women, overborne and drown? ed solitary policemen, und cust helpless priests m?o prison, or scourged them at the altar. WUli oil our sympathy for Puris, wo ure almost sorry that the great city did not per? ish, like Moscow, a sucrilice for the Empire ot which she was thc sacred city." Better that s!ie should bave'been consumed by German lire, than Hint shs should be, us she is now, overrun and devoured by uative vermin. A leading journal ol'New York predicts that the Commuuisls will overthrow iii?; Ver? sailles Government, and ere long threaten the peuce ol' Europe and the world. For our part, we cou 'ess that some signs of the times point in that direction. The tendency I is to turn over the conduct of public affairs to the ignorant and vicious. It is the policy of the Biack Republicanism of America, as weil a3of the Ked Republicanism ot France. It is the policy of the Wusniugton Congress as well us of the Puris Commune. But we do not believe it can succeed, just because we do believe in Providence. Should the wor^t come-the earth is combustible, and there ure lightnings in the sky I TUT;? tn:n on Kttilruatts. This question was before the United States Circuit Cuurt yesterday, under bills of in? junction filed by Stockholders of the South Carolina Builroud Company, of the North? eastern Railroad Company and the Gheraw and Darlington Railroad Company, against the tux collectors and sheriffs of the State in the coso of the taxes imposed by the State, uud against tiie City Council of Charleston, and its officers in the case ot' taxes infboaed by the city. The Stockhol? ders cf the Railroad Companies claimed that the express exemptions granted by the Legislature to the several companies by their respective charters were contracts between tbe State and the corporations, which were beyond the power of the Legislature to im? pair. The Stockholders of tho South Caro? lina Railroad Company were represented by Messrs. Magrath & Low?des and Messrs. Porter & Conner. Those of the Northeast? ern and Cberaw and Darlington Railroad Companies by Messrs. Simonton & Barker. The tax collectors and other officers of the Stale and city by Messrs. D. fl. Chamber? lain, D. T. Corbin and Mr. Stone. After ar? gument, the court (Justices Bond and Bryan) sustained the claim of the Railroad Companies of exemption from faxation un? der their charters, and granted the injune tion perpetual. This decision protects the Railroad Companies from threatened con? fiscation,- and throws the shield of the United States around those who would otherwise become the victims of the powers which at present control the State and city.

It might reasonably bc thought that after the twelve-years' experience which the world has had or HOSTETTER'S BIT-' TE RS, all would know that Its effect ls to picvent disease. At certain seasons the atmosphere ls surcharg? ed with the seeds or intermittents, remittents, rheumatism, pulmonary disorders, bilious com? plaints and the like. Persons whose nervous sys? tems are relaxed are the first to succumb to these distempers. Brace up the physical energies, then, with this potent i il vegetable tonic. It is the most poweriul r?cup?rant which the botanic kingdom has ever yielded to patient research and experiment. Try lt. The blludest discipline or the old medical dogmas will at least admit that a tonic aud alterative, compounded of approved herbs, roots and barks can do no harm, while the testimony of thousands invites a trial of its virtues. Vigor is the thing most needed In these cases as well as ?4n dyspepsia and nervous affections, and HOSlETTER'a BITTERS ls the safest, surest and most wholesome strengthening preparation that ? human skill has yet concocted.
