THE CORRESPONDENCE OF NAPOLEON THE FIRST.
—To prevent the publication being discontinued the
Emperor has guaranteed the expenses by placing the
necessary funds at the disposal of Prince Napoleon.
THE EMPEROR'S TRIP TO ALGIERS has given birth
to a magnificent gift-book, just published by M. Plon,
under the title of " Voyage de S. M. Napoleon 111. en
Algerie," the engravings by M. Danjon, and the letterpress
descriptions by M. Florien Pharaoh.
Her Majesty's paddle-wheel steam sloop Spiteful, Com-
mander A. W. D. Fletcher, ordered back to Woolwich from
Portsmouth at the suggestion of the Shipwright Depart-
ment there, in consequence of a long list of defects sent in
by the ship's carpenter, has undergone the process of caulk-
ing, and having been surveyed throughout by Mr. J. C. B.
Crossland., Assistant-Constructor of the Navy, and a party
of officials from the Board of Admiralty, has been pro-
nounced seaworthy. The ship is consequently again or-
dered to sail for her destination. She left her moorings
yesterday alongside the Hobe hulk, and went down to the
coal brig, under orders to leave Woolwich to-day for Ply-
mouth on the way to Brazil, to relieve and take up her
station there. Commodore Hugh Dunlop, C. 8., superin-
tendent of the dockyard at Woolwich, yesterday received
a communication from Admiral Robinson, Controller of the
Navy, informing him that, in justice to the departmental
officials of the yard, he had much pleasure in acquainting
him that he was fully satisfied with the result of the official
survey of the ship, and he fully exonerated him from the
imputation of negligence which had been imputed to them
with reference to the Spiteful.

A very interesting statement of the value of the
taxable property of Georgia in the commencement of the
war of the rebellion and at the present time is given, show-
ing that the State sacrificed more than half her wealth in
the vain effort to dissolve the Union. When the war on
the government was begun the lands, houses, slaves, mer-
chandise, stocks, and other possessions of the people of
Georgia aggregated a value of over 840 millions of dollars.
The heaviest single item of loss to the Georgians was in
the emancipation of their 486,000 slaves, valued at about
1941 million dollars.
'ADVERTISEMENT.] - Holloway's Pills. The Ready
Remedy.—When winter sets in the human constitution
undergoes many trials, from some of which disease will
spring unless the blood, repelled from the surface of the
body, find organs capable of receiving it and secretions
adapted to consume it. This preservative power is ad-
mirably displayed by proper doses of Holloway's pills;which
relieve the liver, kidneys, andbowels from undue conges-
tion by immediately augmenting their secretions, and so
diverting any surplus quantity of blood from a situation
when its continued presence must be mischievous. With
these pills, and an attentive perusal of their accompanying
directions, neither great judgment nor much experience is
required to conduct even the delicate through the trying
time of winter.
