This celebrated animal is considered the fastest running horse io the world. -Late foreign mails bring the text of Guizot's letter to the London Times, in which he says: "Se/en months ago France suddenly found herself without a government and with? out an army. In this disaster it was Paris that saved the honor of France. An.1 now Paris has met with her owu disaster." He notes that the revolution is not general and does not spread; the sporadic attempts to imitate Paris elsewhere have been summarily suppressed. He concludes that "on the whole the National Assembly and Us executive have acted with intelligence, prudence and justice." It is as? serted that 750,000 people have quitted Puris since tlie 18th ol March. -A Washington letter of Thursdays says : "Tue appointment of a new superintendent at West Point Ls in pursuance of a policy marked out by the secretary of War for remedying the troubles which have existed at the military academy lor the last year. Without intending any reflection on the late superintendent, Col? onel Pitcher, it was thought that a change in the general management of the Institution, which may be extended to the professors, would give the cadets an opportunity to have thorough discipline in every phase ol their du? ties. It is understood that the colored cadet Smith's court-martial sentence will not be pro? mulgated, and that nothing will be done under the resolution of the House requiring the trial Of the cadets ot the tlrst class." -The New York Tribune comes round to the view upon what we have long insisied as to the relative superiority of the Southern Slates over those of the far West as a point of emigration for Northern settlers. It is at the pains to deny that it urges everybody to fly from the East to the West, Irom the cities to the country, and there engage in farming. So far Irom urging all to migrate westward, we are told it has over and again insisted that lands are quite as cheap and inviting, all things considered, in the South, and even in the less donsely peopled portions ol New Jersey, Dela? ware and Maryland, as they will average in the West. For organized colonization, the South, it ls thought, affords equal scope with the West. -General Sherman was cordially received iu N^w Orleans the other day, by one of the clubs ot that city. He made a brief but happy speech, In which be relerred to the fact thal he had ;;nce held a commission as colonel ot militia- ot the State ol Louisiana, and that be was one?; at the head ot the State Seminary. He said that lt always gave him pieasure to visit Louisiana, and to meet not only the mem? bers of thc Union army, but also his old friends upon the other side. "General Bragg und I," enid tn? general, "are close friends, and I know General Beauregard very well, but I have uot. und the pleasure of meeting him this time. General Hood called upon me to-day, and I Intend to call upou him to-morrow." lu alluding to the matter ol 'ecoustmctiou, Gen? era. Sherman said that it was a most delicate and dilllculc problem to solve. Euglau" has been endeavoring to reconstruct Scoiland Tor two hundred years, and still who cuuld fail to detect the marked characteristics ol a Scotch? man. If a people liked tu have laws made for them, they liked to have something io do with the making of them themselves. In time, he thought, the people of the South would fume around all right, out they wauteu it lo be seen that the work ot reconstruction einauaied from themselves. His remarks were received with applause. -The New York Sun says: "Mr. H. B. Clatliu, he head of the great drm ol H. B. Claflln & Co., has just lett this city on a tour through a portion of the South. He will visit Baltimore, Washington, Richmond, Wilming? ton, Charleston, Savannah, Moble and New Orleans-will spend a short time in Florida to see some relatives on the way. When the re? bellion broke out in 1861, Mr. Claflin's house, enjoying a large Southern trade, had a million dollars in debts against Southern merchants. After the war was over in 1865, these debtors came to New York and received a generous wel? come from Mr. Claflln. They were Informed that they could make their own terms respect? ing the payment of the old debts, and should be kindly dealt with in the future. This policy proved as wise as It was generous. With com? paratively lew exceptions this large amount of old debts has been extinguished, and the mer? chants of the South deal with Mr. Claflin's house more extensively than ever. The influ? ence which has gone out from that establish? ment has contributed largely to harmonize sectional feeling, and restore to the whole country a healthy condition of affairs. The extended business of Claflin & Co. can be es? timated by the'fact that the transactions of this 3lngle house in one year now exceed In amount these of all the dry goods houses of the city thirty years ago. This is the first visit of Mr. Claflln to the South, and we bespeak for him such a cordial reception as is due not only to the greatest, but the mo3t liberal among our dry goods merchants'" Death of James SI. Mason, In the death of James M. Mason, the coun? try loses one of those solid old-time states? men, of whom but few indeed are left to ns. Mr. Mason was by no means so brilliant as many of bis colleagues, but there was about him a respectability which is always attrac? tive, and is actually inspiring when observed through the haze of corruption which now euvelops the General Government. Mr. Ma? son was born on Aualoston Island, Fairfax County, Virginia, November 3, 1798. He received a good education, and graduated at the University of Pennsylvania in 1818. He studied law al the College of William and Mary, and obtaiaed a license to practice in 1820. In 1S2G ne was elected to the House of Delegates, and was twice re-elected. He was a Presidential elector in 1833, and was a Repr?sentative in Congress from 1837 to 1S39 In 1847 he was elected a senator in Congr35s1n the place of Senator Peunyback er, and re-elected in 1849, in which position he continued until 1861, having for several sessions been chairman of the committee on foreign relations. He went with the South in 1SG1, was sent to England as Minister of the Southern Confederacy, was captured by the San Jacinto, imprisoned in Fort Warren, ami, after his release, took up his residence ia Europe. After the war closed he return? ed to the United States, nod has siace led a retired life. He quits the world uucheered by the realizatioo of his political dreamt,. But he leaves behind him a great circle of friends, a large aad admiring family, and perhaps not a single enemy who will refuse him his claim to the distinction of having led a conscientious and an unstained career. Masonry In Politics. One of the most singular circumstances connected with the Paris disturbances is the appearance of the brethren of the mystic tie upon the ramparts of the beleaguered city. They have interviewed the government offi? cials at Versailles; aod DOW, having failed to secure such conditions as were deemed by them to be acceptable and opportune, they have returoed and announced their re? solve to plant the banners of the Order on the outer wall. What part they intend to take, the telegrams leave in doubt or mis? represent. One dispatch represents them a3 ia friendly correspoodence with the Com? mune; another of the same date (April 2S) represents them as irritated against the me? tropolitan leaders. The fact probably is, that they have undertaken the office of peace? makers; that, as is apt to be the case when the passions of rival parlies have been em? bittered, they have failed to satisfy the ex? tremists on either side, and that in the su? preme struggle that is to decide the fate of the city, they will display the insignia of the Order and make a final effort to arrest the effusion of blood. The desigu is, very likely, a purely philan? thropic one. Yet it is ill-advised for all tbat, as is evident already from the fact that both parties are claiming the political support of the Order. With groat wisdom the aonsti tution of the Craft has forbidden political or ! sectariao discussions in the lodges. The probihitioa cannot be violated without en? dangering the existence of the institution. I And it is manifest that an endeavor to inter? pose between Thiers who leads the govern? ment and favors the church, and Blanqui who lights the government and suiters the church to be outraged, necessitates among the brotherhood the most animated discus? sions in regard to Church and State. The result of such a perversiou of the de? signs of Masonry was exhibited in Mexico in the year 1825, and subsequently wheo the Scotch Lodges under the^direction of aristo? cratic politicians, and tho Democratic York Lodges under the direction of Mr. Poinsett, divided society, and at last fomented civil war. At the same time the Morgan excite? ment prevailed in that country, and in many of the States Masonic und anti-Masonic tick? ets were run both iu the local and federal eic-ctions. We believe that it will now be generally admitted on all sides that these conflicts ellected DO good whatever. The disciples of Hiram Abifl' maintained their lodges, as they had a right to tlo, and the politicians turned their attention to matters which coi cerned the welfare of the country at large. Whether rightly or not we caunot say; but certainly the impression prevails in many high places iu Europe that the conti ueutal brotherhood are ia alliance with the Illuminati and Carbonari, the opponents of the present ecclesiastical and political estab? lishments. In Catholic countries they of ne? cessity bold theuiselve3 aloof from the com? munion of the altar. Under what are known as personal governments, they ure suspected simply because they are a secret fraternity. On either account the interposition between the political and military combatants at Paris, however well intentioned, was ill advised.
