' ' -This paragraph from the London. Times J will be read with profound satisfaction in j France: "No lapse of time and no depth of \ misfortune will ever deprive France of the <? rank which her geographical position and her material and mental advantages have given her at the head of European nations. It was . the boast ot that country, when at the height 1 of her power and prosperity, that on her sails- * faction depended the world's tranquillity ; but < the world ls not reassurred by all her pros tr a- 1 tlon and exhaustion." 1 -It ls stated that several prominent tabor \ reformers are endeavoring to consolidate the { national and international trade unions, the , State labor councils and the various secret t orders of mechanics into one national order . of American mechanics. Tnls is to be done by a convention, in which all the different ex- ( Isling organizations will be represented by 1 delegates, and if the proposed consolidation is 1 effected, lt will unite at least one million ol ? workers and voters, who will be controlled t by a central labor congress. g -Mlle.

Her <. compartment In the train was a saloon car- ( rlage flited up with bed-room accommodation, i Added to her nsual retinue of servants, she ( took with her her own artiste capillaire and ) two female dressers. WJ10 would be a mere prima donna after this ? j -The famous story of the ''stuffed captain" . In the Prussian army has at length received a satisfactory explanation by the official press- ( In all Prussian budgets there figures a captain c ofthe First regiment of the Foot Guards, for < whose pay the estimates are charged with ( one thousand three hundred thalers, though ] _ the officer's name ls not to be found in the < army list. The mystery has given rise to r many humorous, but none the less violent at- t tacks from- the progressists, who scented in t the Item one of the numerous false pretences by which government was supposed to obtain T funds. The "stuffed captain" who was agata 1 made the subject of a fierce attack In the 1 latest fight over the budget, turns out to be ? no other than his Majesty himself, by bis im* 1 perlai dignity captain ol his own First Foot t Guard?. He does not, however, pocket the | one thousand three hundred thalers for bis \ own use, bat pays them regularly towards the support o? the tallest men ia that company of giants, for which, like Frederick the Great, he ( has a constitutional tenderness. -The turn of the tide of testimony in Mrs. ' Wharton's favor has had the enVct of arousing 1 again th? public Interest which had begun to t decrease during the first few. days and weeks t ofthe trial. The imprisonment and mental < anxiety of Mrs. Wharton have worn terribly t on ber health, and ehe as well as her faithful ? daughter betrays by her unsteady gait and haggard features the terrible solicitude with which her mind is burdened. The Jury, too, are beginning to show the "wear and tear" of ( the struggle, while the judges and attorneys 1 seem to undergo as yet no Inconvenience, and ' are as alert and active as ever. The audience 1 1B always large, and ls made up principally of 1 members of the fair sex, who pay the strict- | est attention lo the proceedings, and linger ( enchanted on the words ot classlo and sci- ( entific lore which proceed from the mouths of the medical experts in bewildering confusion. ] On Wednesday, Attorney-General Syester cre? ated a profound sensation among his legal 1 brethren by the apparently Inexhaustible fund > of his medical knowledge as displayed in the < tremendously long list of questions propound- I ed to Dr. Reese. The wonder ceased, how- 1 ever, when it was discovered that his inquiries were quoted from little bits of paper handed ( up to him, with regularity and profusion, by another physician. General Brice, whose wife ' is the sister of the late General Ketcbum, has 1 recently given lt as his. opinion that Mrs. J Wharton undoubtedly committed the deed of 1 which she is accused, but that she ls insane, i and the trial wUl probably end "without re- ( suits." j -The scene during the storming of the al- y dermanic stronghold in New Jork city last , week must have been one of the most ludi? crous on record. At high noon the new board or aide rm 20, headed by Mr. Clinton, proceed- ( od to the door of the council chamber, and ? awaited their* opportunity. Presently, and < Just aa the old board were about to reorgan- . ls? into iv new one, tte door was opened to 1 let some one oat, and lt was seized by Hr. Clinton aad two or three of his clerks. Mr. Munn, the sturdy Bergeant-at-arme, endeavor? ed to pull lt to again, but the attacking party was too strong. Mr. Clinton Insert? ed his head Into the room and loud? ly informed the board of his presence and its object. The only effect of this pro? logue was the application of additional force to the door handle on the inside. Clinton, by way ol keepiDg up the circulation, repeated his summons twice or thrice with no avail. He then endeavored to serve a process on the muscular Munn, and while interrogating him as to his name, residence, and other domestic statistics, the door began to v.aver, and by a combined charge the new loard effected an entrance, each one in succession tripping over the heroic sergeant-at-arms' extended leg. Then the clerks began serving the writ la a lively manner, while the old board as nimbly dissappeared, Alderman Irving diversifying the entertainment by knocking over a small clerk in his characteristic style. . Tbe New Orleans Embrogllo. A few words of explanation may enable the South Carolina public to understand the merits of the political faction fight in progress in New Orleans. There are, in LoriBiana, only two po? litical parties, the Conservative or Demo? cratic, and the Radical Republican ; bat the Radical party is divided into carpet? bag-mulatto Radicals and scalawag-negro Radicals, the carpet-bag wing being led by Governor Warmotb, and the scalawag negro wing being supported by the loci! officers of the Federal Government. Gov? ernor Warmotb, like Governor Scott, at? tempted to curry favor with the Conserva? tive citizens, and gave their representative body, the Citizens' Association, distinct promises of his assistance in curtailing the growing influence and power of the negroes in their demands for office. The death of Dann, the black Lieatenant-Go vernor, now book place, and Governor Warmoth had to choose between Blighting the negro element ind breaking faith with the while Conserva? tives. Threats of impeachment were rife, ind Warmonth saw no safety except in se? lecting, as a successor to Dann, a person w ho could not, or would not, go over to the opposition. Declining to accede to the re? quest of the Citizens' Association that he would nominate, as promised, a person of I good character and high standing, be con-1 re ned tbe Senate in special session last mooth for the selection of a new Lteuten int-Governor. Before the Senate met, it became under-1 itood that the Governor's candidate was P. I 3. S. Pincbback, a light mulatto, an old op-1 )onent of Dann, and who is, besides, despised I )y the whites, and distrusted by the blacks. The Democracy and the Anti-Warmonth jar ty formed a coalition to defeat Pi nc h )ack, and their calculation was that the lrst vote would be a tia A Warmotb sena or was then to come over and secure the election of Senator Copeland, an incorrupti? ble and able man. But the influences in which onr own artless Governor delights vere brought into play-an opposition sens? or deserted to the enemy, and Pincbback vas elected on the first ballot. The opposi ion (lid not, however, give np the fight. They denied the right of the Governor to ?ll a special session of a single branch of he General Assembly, and resolved to enew the contest as soon as the regular ses tion of the Legislature began. Nor was the incitement confined to the Senate. The ipeaker of the House, Mr. George W. Carter, s the readiest debater and most adroit tac ti? tian in the party, and between him and the j Governor there exista a deadly fend. It ia a nooted question whether, in case of im ?eachment, the- Lieutenant-Governor being lead, Speaker Carter does not actually be- L :ome Governor of Ibe State. The situation, n a word, was this : Either Warmoth raust lep?se the speaker, or the Governor would )e impeached and deposed himself. The regular session of the Legislature )egins on the first Monday in January. On Wednesday, January 3d, the Senate had no moram, but the House met, and the plans >[ the Warmothltes were instantly (level )ped. A motion was made to declare the ?hair vacant, which motion Speaker Carter pronounced to be revolutionary. On a test I question the Carterites were defeated by Bix najority, and, as in the preceding session he Warmothites were in* the minority in he House, it is plain that, during the inter? nal between the two sessions, a number of nembers had been bought over. To prevent lis expulsion by force, Speaker Carter placed i body-guard ia the rear of his desk, aad on Wednesday night he is said to have demand id the support of the Federal troops. Tifls )rings ns lo the question which lies at the jottom of the whole quarrel. There are in Louisiana two separate and listinct organizations, each claiming to .epresent the Republican party. United States Marshal Packard is at the head of the >ne, and Governor Warmoth at the head of he other, viz-: the party which bolted at the ime of the State Convention. ' All the Fed? eral officials are found among the leaders of be opposition to Warmotb, and the straggle s for the mastery in the State. If the Gov irnor defeats his adversaries in the Legisla? te, he gives the lie to the representations )f the Customhouse clique, obtains the recog aition of the National Republican Commit? tee, and, with the registration and election aws in his own hands, can dictate terms to the Washington officials and hold the key to the situation. On the other side, if he is lefeated, the Packard-Customhouse party ire recognized, the control of the Federal patronage is lost and the impeachment of Warmoth is certain. It was also claimed that any advantage which the Governor night enjoy in his power over the State courts would be neutralized by an appeal of ;he Packard-Carter party to the laws of. the United States. On Thursday morning, January 4, the governor, the Lieutenant Governor and their principal adherents were arrested by I Marshal Packard, under the Enforcement let, on the charge of conspiring to deprive .he members of the House of Represent? atives of their rights, and of attempting to ?ject the Speaker by force, and of bribing md corrupting members. The whole party vere released OD bail-the excitement, in the neantime, growing more intense. Earlier n the day the House secured a qnornm, de slared the chair vacant, and put in Brew? ster, a Warmotbite, as speaker. The next lay a telegram from President Grant was 'ead givin ' the assurance that the action of ?ie United States marshal, in arresting the j Warmotbites, would be investigated at once. General Emery now assured the Governor that the Federal troops woukf co? operate in preserving the peace, and Carter, the ejected speaker, announced his determi? nation to hold "the regular session" of the Legislature outside the capitol. The "War moth Legislature, however, bad ordered the exclusion from the capitol of Carter and the members whose affidavits led to War moth's arrest. On the 5lb, Friday last, the Warmothites had fifty members, and the Carterites forty-eight. It is understood that the Federal administration will not interfere unless for the preservation of peace. To day the rival Legislatures meet again, and serious collision is apprehended. This is, we believe, a fair statement of the New Orleans war. It is, as we have shown a straggle between tv?o sets of unscrupulous and venal politicians-the one eager to ob? tain power, and the other equally eager retain it. To the honest people of the State it matters little, we presume, which side whips. _ _ _ The Colored Troops Fight Nobly. The emancipation celebration in Beaufort or. the first of January was a big affair. Sena tor Smalls had written a letter, which was ..ead, in which he promised to assist in the conviction of the men whom he believed to be dishonest. Representative Whipper made a long speech, ia which he declared that Governor Scott was responsible for the finan cial trouble which bad fallen upon the State and that Governor Scott, "more than any "other mao, is chargeable with the faet "that the United States Government has "been compelled to Btep in and arrest the "Ku-KIux and bring them to trial." He also charged Governor Scott with rob bing the State, and said that he intended to fight for impeachment to the bitter end. If that failed, he would stamp the State in order that the people might redress their wrongs Coming from a colored Radical, who ie Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, this is tolerably strong.
