Mr. Flanders, the now Governor of Louisiana, appointed by General Sheridan, made a speech in New Orleans on Friday, in which ho op? posed confiscation, and also opposed a project guaranteeing half the of? fices to colored, men.

AIR GUNS. -Extraordinary in terest has been manifested in the recent assassination in Brooklyn of a Mr. Carr, on account of the uncommon weapon which tho murderer used. This ia very natural, os the idea of an air gun suggests a measure of cow? ardice and a cool diabolism on the part of the person who would use au * instrument of that character which ' are by no means pleasant to reflect upon." Happily, these villainous wea? pons are little known in this country; we are informed that there is only one gunsmith in the. United States who can mannfactui#or repair them. Among many European nations, where air guns have been almost co? existent with gunpowder, strict re? strictive measures are enforced against | their construction and sole. They are, however, surreptitiously manu? factured, and the few winch have reached this country are of foreign workmanship. A London correspondent suggests tho impious thought that Qeen Vic. Ls beginning to look tho old lady. Corydon, who informed against the Irish Fenians, recently came to grief, and was mobbed by his coun? trymen at Waterford. Served him right. The Petersburg (Va.)

Mr. Seward, in com? mon with other humane men, desires the defeated Emperor's life spared. "Whether his kindly feelings in behalf of that unhappy prince will bo of any avcil, remains to be seen. The Mexi? can Legation at this point have re? ceived no recent official advices in regard to tho matter, aud there is nothing later than the newspaper re? port, published a few days ago, to the effect that Maximilian would be treated as a prisoner of war. THE GBEAT BRIGHAM.-Brigham Young was splendidly received upon his return to Salt Lake City, from his tour through his broad dominions.

In the words of the local print, "the dimensions of the demonstration were prodigious." The late well-known Daniel O'Con? nell once met a conceited friend, and exclaimed: "I saw a capital thing) iu your last pamphlet. " 4 'Did you ?" eagerly replied his delighted listener; "what was it?
