Wednj^^-afontf^t'-jfay 4.<W?0* Tho coming summor promises to be signaled, o vor all predecessors by great labor disturbances. In Paris, and throughout. Contirieutal Europe,' the revolution baa already commenced, and ia eomo of tho capitals, reached a point fruitful; of aj?rm to the Governments. Bj toe immense immigration of tho past few Weeks from England, we can Bee the same elements at work there, perhaps on a slower, but yet larger scale, and ere long, fully, ?no fourth of the artisan population os Eorope will become not only non-producing, but possibly ar? rayed flguiosfc tho good order and inter? ests of society. No battle ever fonght since the world began, could equal in importance this great labor contest, upon the issue'ol' which, depend the world's destinies* We all know the power of capital, and have seen the scattered forces of its competitor gradually organizing and consolidating, growing every day moro prensing in exactions and more de? terminedly hostile. The result has been to dnvo'the :cost of living rapidly up? wards to an enormous figaro, to beget ruinous extravagance, to foster, vice and all kindred elements of social discord. We do not expect tho strikes to remove any of these evils. lu some places they will succeed and in others fail. In ei tb er caso, however, they will only act as in? centives ! to new demands and new troubles, culminatingeventually in popu? lar revolutions, by which means the widening golf between wealth and pov? erty can'- alono be orossed. Our own country, in spite of its many natural ad vantages; is lib?ly to participate in the general turmoil; but with our extended territory, it cannot result in such serious consequences as in Europe, where over? crowded communities have only two modes of relief-through war or emigra? tion. ? few obstinate men will bo beg? gared in the battle, and a large hole will be made in our national wealth by tho loss of productiveness, whioh timo and taxes will necessarily have to make up. So much for the strikers. That General Jordan ia ooming to tho United States may be regarded as a certainty, but what condition he is com? ing in, is still a subject for wonderment. The New York Sun, and other journals in the insurgent interest, say that he is coming as a special envoy to Congress, to urge the young republic's claims to recognition, and that it is all right. On the other hand, we know ambassadors seldom embark on small open boats, or carry with them a crowd of ragged soldiers, unless under very strong per? suasion. . Jordan's mission, therefore, appears to us very .much in the light of a skedaddle. j-;-Jtif ? ? SUNDAY IN PARIS.-Next Sunday, the 8th of Muy, the special election will take place in the French Empire to deoido upon the ameliorations and concessions of the Empire, and also upon the con? tinuance of the Emperor's dynasty in the person of bia son. Sunday is the day of the week in Paris, and all over Franco the day of races, theatres, concerts, balls, promenades, excursions and marching, and also the day of elections. Harper's Bazar, treating of tho effect of simplicity in the midst of elaborate and expensive artifice, says: "Let n young woman, with no hair but her own, and that simply dressed, enter a room filled with those whose head? are elabo? rately built up with a profusion of pur? chased locks, and see who will bo most admired. Ic is a great udvantago for u woman, in tbeso days of artifice, to "re? main herself, and thus be unlike every one else. A simple dress, white or black, will produce tho greatest effect when surrounded by tho most gorgeous costumes. These serve, as it wero, as frames for the former, and women aro often forced to confess that they have draped themselves magnificently, nt an immense expense, for no other puposo than to heighten, by contrast, tho beauty of a rival. In fact, they have been wearing a dress which is very be? coming to-others." BADLY SOLD.-At the Express Com? pany's sale of unopened packages, Sa? turday lust, there wore many wild und venturesome bids by gentlemen eager to go into the lottery. Tho best joke is told of two well-known hardware mer? chants of this city. Seeing a box marked "Hon. B. F. Rundolpb," (the defunct martyr,) they began to surmise ns to ita contents, and finding it somewhat pon? derous, concluded that it contained pis? tols or revolvers. They immediately formed au extemporaneous copartner? ship and bid it in for $41. On opening their prize, tho box was found to con? tain about 20,000 pewter medals of Grunt and Colfax, .which the martyr, doubtless, intended for campaign purposes. Per? sons desiring to purchase medals, can get them cheap nt the stores of Messrs.-. [Charleston Courier. Chief of Police Hondticks has been presented with a watch-chain aud seal, by tho members of tho Charleston police force. Greenville furnishes the PH?OTX the following account of a brutal murder in that Ooun*y: jf J' ?jp J ? ' \ Capt. Ti A. H?tecl?T^'re8idipg"eigbt miles abovo Greenville Court Hon se, was brutally murdered on Sunday ovou ibg, the 1st inst. ^He fcodhis wif??waik ed out ' after tea Borne 600 yards to a neighbor's house, and hod started home about 9 o'clock p.m.; they wore going through a small strip of woods, where it was dark, and dipt. H. was struck by some unknown person, in the head with an axe. He foll against his wife, which ularmed her, and ?be ran off, screaming and aroused the neighbors, and they hurried to the place, but found the Captain dead. There was one cut above the eye, which knocked out his brains, aud a cat in the back of the head, about four inches deep-either of which would have killed him instantly. His wife was so frightened that she oould tell nothing about the affair, except that the mur? derer was a large man; but could not say whether he was white or black. No clue to the murderer. Tho Philadelphia Day mournfully in? quires: "The city in whioh American independence was declared and tho Con? stitution framed, appears io bo fast fad? ing from the minds of men in authority. Gan nothing be done for the birth-plaoo of liberty-st city containing nearly 1,000,000 of intelligent people? Nothing to save it from sinking into political in? significance?" An enterprising business man of Hart? ford, Gonn., ru ns two branches of trade, to wit: a grocery aud fish market; the grocery himself, the fish market by a deputy, and every night the latter makes returns of the proceeds of the dav's business to the proprietor. A few days since the grocer found in his fish market returns a counterfeit fire-dollar bill. He didn't like to lose it, and didn't quite want to take the chances of trying to pass it. So ho called au old darkey who was hanging about the premises, and said to him: "Sam, here's a five-dollar bill that's a little doubtful. If you'll take it and pass it, 111 give you a dollar of the change." "Vory well," eaid Sam, and he took tho bill und went off. Later in the day, he returned, having accomplished the feat, and handed over four dollars in good mouey to tho grocer. That night the grocer, in counting tho cash returns from his fish market, was more surprised than delighted to find tho identical five in the pile. "Look here," said he sharply to his fish market clark, "hero's a counterfeit bill-who'd ye toko it of? Didn't you kuow 'twas bad?" The clerk took it und looked at it n moment. "Oh! yes." said ho, "I remember now; I took it o? Sam, tho darkey. I thought it was u little doubtful, and wasn't going to tuke it, but ho said he got of you, so I thought it was all right." NOAH ON HAM.-In that racy series of papers, "Dowu Among the Dead Men," in the Old Guard, for March, we find the following about tho veteran journalist. Major Noah : "Tho Major," as he was always called by his friends, though always standing np stoutly for the honor of his race, wus not very strict in tho observance of the Hebrew religion. Some one, nettled at something hu had said, spoke of him as a I "pork-eating Jew." He laughed when told of it. "I don't admire pork," he said, "but I plead guilty to a weakness for its hind leg, when all tho Christian has beeu taken out of it by Bait and smoke nnd-hanging. I know that tho first Noah cursed liam, but he was re? covering from a had drunk at the time. There is no reason why the lust Noah should do it without any provoeatiou especially if tho ham bu juicy, and the Noah hungry-" "But Moses, Major-" "Oh, Moses was perfectly right, under tho circumstances. I don't suppose that there was n man in all Palestine who un? derstood how to cure a ham. Moses tells us we mustn't mar tho corner of our beards-, and yet ninety-nine hundreds of the Jews shave as close as I do." "And so tho Major nto his ham, and took tho responsibility." A TEMPERANCE FAMILY IN NEVADA. It consisted of tho husband, his wife and two grown sons. Tho old lady was tho only one of the family who did not, take a lut le of t lie "O, ho joyful." Sitting by thc fire a few minutes, the old mun tipped a wink, and the visitor followed him out. Stoppiug by a shed, ho pulled out a long nocked bottle, remarking, "I have to keep this hid, for tho boys might get to drinking, aud the old woman would raise the devil." Tlioy took a drink and re? turned to tho Oro sido. Soon, Tom, tho eldest son, asked the visitor ont to seo a horse, und taking him behind the barn, pulled out a flask, remarking, "I have to keep this hid, for tho old mau will get drunk, and then the cl-I is to pay;"and they both took a drink and returned. Soon, Bob stepped on tho visitor's too and walked off, tho visitor following. As Uiey reached the pig pen, Bob drew out a good sized bottle, remarking, "You know tho old man and Tom will get drunk, and i have to hide this." Our friend con? cluded ho could not stand it to drink confidentially against tho whole family, aud started back to Gold Hill. Information from tho Northern Pro? vinces of India brings report of a serious outbreak among tho native tribe of Thaokoors, ut Newar, a town of the Provinco of Rujpootana, 200 miles to the South-west of Delhi. Some 2,000 of the tribe have rebelled against their chief and his followers, and terrible massacres havo taken place. Tbe troops at the nearest military station have been or? dered to the scene of tho outbreak. ed woman, whoso nome wo did not learn; ia the servioe of Capt. Bradford, was bitten, on Saturday last, by n spider, in an oat-hduoqton the promises wboro she was employed.

David O'Day, a New York rowdy, who was implicated in the murder of Felix Larkin, eighteen months ago, waa killed on the 21th instant, in a liquor saloon on Oreen wich street, New York. He was with a party of friends at tbe time, and was stabbed by one of thom during an altercation. A despatch from the far West says: A despatch from Sioux City to-day, says that the a'arm in the Indian country is general and well-founded. It is thought that if the Indians aro not Sheridanized at once, they will inaugurate the most extended war tho West has ever experi? enced.

WE always take pleasure in recommend? ing a book which has all thu qualities that meet our ideal of what a good book nhould he; in which the subject is ono of in? terest and importance, tho Style attractive and pleasing, ami thu illustrations and details lucid and completo.

It Stauda alone and unapproacha? ble iu its speciality; all that could bu desired, in the way of history, statement, comn.ent. criticism and illustration, rotating to tho vital subject of which it treats. Tho great learn? ing and power, aud beauty of st\lo, do not constitute its highest praise. Thia is found in its moral and religious spirit, iu its pre-eminent Christian candor and imparti? ality, in ita solemn earnestness for historic truth, it H manly and uuwavoring faith in the doctrines proclaimed by tho fearless subject of its biography, all combining to mabu it ono of the grandest monuments of saiictilicd intellect and learning ever reared to honor of Sacred Truth.

Let tho labor-scorner look to himself, and learn what aro the trophies. From tho crown of his head to tho sole of his foot, unless ho is a Carib, naked as tho beast, ho is the debtor aud slave of toil. The labor which ho scorns, hus tricked him into the stature and appearance of a man. Whore gets ho his garmenting and equipage? Lot labor answer. Labor which makes music in tho mino and fur? row, and tho forgo. O, scorn labor, do you-man who never yet earned a mor? sel of bread I Labor pities you, proud fool, and laughs you to scorn.
