PABIS, October 10.-The permanent
commission of the Assembly, to-day,
held an important meeting, at which
President Thiers waa present. Matters
were discussed on whioh tbsre was con?
siderable conflict of opinion. Gam
betta's politioal toar ond speaohes in tho
prov?noos, and assaults raoently made on
the pilgrims who continue to flock to
witness the mirado of the Virgin, were
regarded by some of the members as
likely to lead to trouble. President
Thiers expressed indignation at the out?
rageous treatment of the pilgrims, which
he regardod ae an attack on the Catholic
religion and national form of worship.
He warmly condemned the course of M.
Gambetta, who, he said, was trying to
divide the nation and render the posi?
tion of the Government abroad more
diffloalt. Thiers, who seemed to be in?
clined to break with the Left, still clang
to the republic His positive declara?
tions in favor of that form of govern?
ment were received with laughter by the
Monarchists of the oomission. A report
that Prinoe Napoleon iutended to return
to Franco, and possibly resumo bis resi?
dence iu Paris, was also considered.
President Thiers informed the commis
sion that he had expressed his disup
pro val of such a step, and bad takci
means to prevent the Prince from carry
ing his intention into effect.

thing of a personal shook to the fow who
govern tho many. In the republics of
Spanish America, the loss of a powerful
friend and patron will be mourued; the!

demise of almost the only American

The President bas issued the following
proclamation:
Whareas tba revolution of another
year bas again brought tn? time when it
is usual to look buck upon tho past, aud
publicly to thank the Almighty for his
mercies aod his bleesings; aud whereas
if anyone people has more occasion than
another for such thankfulness, it is tb?
citizens of the United States, whose Go?
vernment is their oreature, subjeot to
their behests; who have reserved to
themselves ample civil and religious
freedom and equality before the law;
who, during tho last twelve months,
have enjoyed exemption from any griev
oas or general calamity, and to whom
prosperity in agriculture, manufactures
and commerce baa been vouchsafed:
Now, therefore, by these considera?
tions, I recommend that, on Thursday,
the 28th day of November next, th? peo?
ple meet ia their respective places of
worship, aud there make their acknow?
ledgments to God for his kindaess nod
bounty.

jerked a heavy "standard" out of the
wagon body, and beat Hills so ho fell
senseless, and died in about two hourn.

man jumped off the wugon, stripped

Mn. Kimon: Many of our citizens will
recall with delight the short visit of
Miss Keep, last summer, as the guest of
Mr. W. H. Orchard, and the pleasure
they derived from her powers of song
and obliging disposition. If our citi?
zens did not fully appreciate the parity
and compass of her voice, the artists and
people of the oity of Memphis certainly
did; for at a concert given by the ama?
teurs in that oity, a short time ago, in
whioh Miss Keep took a part, the audi?
ence showed their appreciation of ber
talents by the mott unbounded applause.
The entire oommuoity thrilled with en?
thusiasm, aud the whole city at once
rang with the name of Miss Keep. Sho
is a resident of Memphis, but had beeu
so long absent, under the tuition of
masters in the oity of New York, that
her old friends wero ignorant of her
wonderful vocal powers. Wo take spe?
cial pleasure in writing of Miss Keep,
because abe is a niece of our townsman,
Mr. Orchard, (who will soon resume the
profeiaorahip of music in the Columbia
Female College;) because she has made
many lasting friends in our city; and
because she is a daughter of oar own
sunny South, who gives bright promise
of commanding a high place among the
foremost artists of the age, and gather?
ing green laurels for her - native land.
To-day, Miss Keep sails from New York
for a stay of three years in Verona,
Italy, nuder the oare of the greatest
Italian masters. May the bright smiles
of happy fortuno accompany her to
sunny Italy, and may the day swiftly ?
come when we shall weloome her back to
oar shores, crowned with the jeweled
coronet of triumph, woa ia tho musical
salons of Europe. X.

vise people to have nothing to do with

TUE HICE HARVEST.-The Georgetown
(3. C.) Timas, of the 4th, says: "Tim
nee harvest is being pushed as rapidly
along as tho supply of labor will permit.
The weather hus buen glorious, ami from
the commencement of the harvest to tho
time wo writo there have been but three
days when rice could not safely bo bun?
dled. If tho crops turn out bo short
(and wo fear they will) it must bo attri?
buted to the caterpillar, the salts, the
ric? birds and the thieves, and not to an
unpropitious harvest. From tho small
quantity ol rico being brought to town
by the negroes thus fur, wo ara inclined
to believe that the ?teaing? bas boen leds
this year than in tho last three or four
years." '

The people of Texas are more excited
over the location of the State oapital
than over the approaching Presidential
eleolion. The State is certain for Gree?
ley and Brown, mr' all the inhabitants
consider that they have to do is to go
through the form of expressing their
prcfe euee at the polls. But the problem
as to whether or nut Houston, or Austin,
or Waco is to be the seat of government
for the State, is one of those open ques?
tions that stir tho blood of the cager
contestants. So hot has become the
struggle, that, to use a homely proverb,
"the pot has a.died the kettle black,"
and thereby added fuel to the flames. A
Galveston paper started it, by giving aa
a reason why Houston should not be
chosen, that it was subject to yellow
fever. Whereupon, Houston replies that
Galveston is thu very home and cradle of
thut disagreeable disease, and not only
has it itself, but gives it to its neighbors.
Aaa Houston says, farther, that if it has
the yellow fever, it will give it to both
Austin and Waco; so it will. It retorts,
in the third place, that it will not have
the fever any more, any way, just to
spite Galveston, os it considers the con?
duct of the latter city outrageons.
TRIBULATIONS OP AN IMMIGRATION
AOENT.-The Wilmington (N. O.) Jour?
nal reports that a white man by the
name of Charles Koch, a German, ar?
rived in that city ou Monday afternoon,
from Washington city, he having, ac?
cording to his own statement, walked
all the way between Washington and
this city. He bears with him a commis?
sion as immigration agent for the State
of Florida, aigned by Harrison Reed,
Governor of that State, and attested by
Jonathan C. Gibbs, Secretary of State.
This document bears date February 21,
1871, and has affixed to it the great seal
of the S teto of Florida. It seems, that
Koch has been North for the purpose of
scouring immigrants for bia State, at
the very low rate of $2 per head. In |
thia he says that he has been quite suc?
cessful, and that some 2,000 persons bad
agreed to go South with him, but that,
when he drew on the Treasurer for the
money, his drafts were retorned to him.
