And his army mimtxjred hut 36,000 men, nud those poorly clothed and badly provisioned.

There is 1 >10 man probably living who has rood more, thought more, or Written more on military subjects than Napoleon III. Several of hi* treatises are, wo believe, the standard works in Europe in the departments of the science of which thev treat. He has also born, from his youth, careful and sagacious observer of military affairs throughout the world*?of the two great Algc-' Han and Crimean wars in particular, the opera tions of the first of which, sinec his ascension, and of the Inst from- tho beginning, ho has the credit of conducting. Nnnoleon I was young, but a mere stripling; Napoleon 111 is in the .vigor of mature mauhood. This w(is studious, virtuous, temperate even to abstemiousness, unknown, without money and friends; the other is a riotous liver, lascivious, commands money and friends without number, ami fills the world with his name. This was open, frank, sincere, full of sympathy with his man, with whom he lired 011 the most familiar terms, sharing their joys and sorrows and dangars, imparting to them his pluns and designs, even his inmost thought; the other is cold, distant, reticent to n jwovorb, imparting hie c-tinseh* to none, hardly letting his left hand know what his right bsnd doeth, and familiar with none, nopuiuon i, in nn?\ was sun in liio nre of yonth, active, enterprising, n man of genius, indeed, fr<>ni tho promptings of which he always acted; .NaiMileon the III it past the middle age; inactive, but mature in judgment, upon wltich, and upon his thcoredeul knowledge, he lias ah>no to rely.

It will be a source of pleasure to all the friends of our town to lenra that it is still improving.? The spirit of improvement is visible upon all sides, and if it be kept up at the present rate, wo verilv believe that fSreonville ivill in a weev few years, have to doff licr close fitting and modest habit and assume the more extended limits and privi1oge?of a city. And whilst these might not innko us better as a people, it would nevertheless, be a reflection upon our enterprise, zeal and progress as citizens. Mr. T. B. Roberts is preparing to erect a brick edifice or. Main Street on the spot recently occupied by liie residence. When completed, judging from the plan and its proportions, it will be one of the handsomest business houses in town, and will add beauty to the appearance of the street. Over the river, we find that Messrs.

Mr. Johx Adams, wc observe, haft commenced to improve his lot handsomely. A large framed dwelling is in course of building, and will soon bo completed. It is located on a beautiful site, above the upper bridge, and commands a fine view of the stream and the rich meadows along the hanks of tho river.

A Family Poisoned. One of the most shocking cases of poisoning which has linnnened for inanv vears??t lo??? in this Stnto?transpired at Newberry last week. The family poisoned was llutt of Mr. Hobmt Stkwabt, a gentleman well known to many of us, and who resides much of his time at hfs summer pliico near Greenville. Concerning the cose, tlic Newberry CoHmrvatUt says: "On Thursday morning, last, just after their usual Breakfast hour, the family of Mr. Robert Stewart found themselves iu the greatest peril. 1 Eight persons on the lot, Mr. Stewart, Mrs. Stewark Mrs. Wilkes, housekeeper, and five negroes, were taken suddenly ill, with all the symstonis of having taken poison. Our ohysieiuns* were on the spot- as promptly as possible, only to confirm (lie worst fears and render all the assistance in their power. " In the afternoon of that day the cook, a negro woman named Fanny, was lodged lit jail, where she confessed to having put it miuntily of Arsenic in the water-bucket* in the Kitehen.? Water was used from this bucket in preparing all the dishes for breakfast, except tin; biscuit, and it may he, the coffee. This accounts for Mrs. Kutc Stewart's escape, its she ate only of these two dishes. Miss Sue Wright and Mrs. Wilkes' son were fortunately absent front the breakfast table; the first was confined to a sick bed, and the other, after taking an early breakfast, was off to school. " Fa nay further confessed that she had been furnished with the poison by a white itirttl, with whom she hud, for some time itest, been on the most Ultimate terms. (We shall not, for his luindy's suke, publish his name.) After using it part of the Arsenic, she had buried the remainder iu the garden where it wait found in the place she designated. The package was identified' by the Druggist as the one lie sold (ne mgni oeiore to tlie while man alluded to.? lie, also, was lodged in jail on Thursday evening, so tlint it is n matter of congratulation that I lie criminals in this nefarious liminese arc secure from escape. No other reason can be assigned for the dastardly act, limn tlmt funny did it to revenge herself upon her master's family for the punishment lie hnd inflicted, and threatened still to inflict, lieeause of her shameful iutiinaey with this-man, whose co-operation in the hellish plan she, to his everlasting shuttle be it said, easily sceured. " We learn, just as wc are going to proas, that all of the poisoned persons are regarded out of duugcr, except Mrs, Wilkes, whose ease is still desperate, bhe may die at iiny moment." Later news than the above reports the death of Mrs. Wilkes. A Remarkable Book.
