In the notice which we began yester-
day, of the posthumous work of this un-
rlvalled genius among women, we stopped
at the epoch Of her residence i'll Germany.
On the death OF her father, she returned
to her paternal estate, Coppetnear Gene
va, and being still interdieted residence
at Paris, she travelled into Italy--a for
tunate result, like her abode in Germany,
for the literary world, since it led to the
composition Of her s'Corinne." This
work gave unequalied eclat TO her name.
In 1905. on her return from tia ", she
passed a year at Coppet; but not being
able to endure longer the distance from
Paris, she removed 10 Rouen. where she
was, still, without the limits prescribed to
her Fouche, then Minister of Police,
allowed her to approach nearer and fix
herself at the distance of twelve leagues
Here she led retired life and saw but
avery small number of persons; yet, as
her son. the Editor of the volume, states
in an advertisement-all this did not sat
isfy Bonaparte-"he wanted her to re-
nounce altogether the employment of her
literary talents, and prohibited her from
writing upon subjects the most unconnec
ed with politicks' Since she would not
pay literary homage to him and his sys
tam, she was to cease to publish at all

"ln consequence Of the strong represen-

tariff, the Spanish government had exempted
that Island from its operations, and left the

THE osAaEs AND cHERoKEEs.

THE OSAGES AND CHEhohEEs'
I'VE learn by boat which arrived here
few days ago, from the United States
Factory in the Cherokee nation, that
the Osages are collected on White River to
the number of about 1900, and have sent IN
a runner to advise the whites to remove their
families and property from among the Che
rokees, as they intended shortly to make an
attack on the latter and would treat all they
.hoeld find in the Cherokee nation as enc
mics. This intelligence had created consi-
derable alarm among the CheroSees, who
were holding councils every Gay, 10 concert
measures for their defence.
For several months past, We have had va
rious and contradictory reports respecting
war parties, sometimes from one nation ana
sometimes from the other, going against
their opponents, without ANY engagement
taking place. until we begin to place little
reliance on any of them. Upon the whole,
we believe from the best information we can
collect, that both nations are heartily sfck OF
the war. in which no advantage has been
gained by either party, and that both would
gladly bury the tomaha~k, and with II the
g,aunds of dispute which have caused the
late unhappy rupture between them.

TREATr OF Observation-Disclosures OF THE
COMMISSIONERS.
The commissioners under the fifth article
of the treaty of Ghen,, who were appointed
10 settle the porth eastern boundary OF the
United States, have been in session in this
city ior the last ten days. The arguments Of
the agents tor the respective governments
were closed on Saturday last. The com
missioaers, we understand, differ in opinion.
The mOst important point upon which they
differ, is ia relation 10 the position Of the
north west angie OF Nova Scotia, or in
other words the Forth east angle Of Maine.
The territory in dispute contains about FIVE
millions OF acres Of land, part o{ which is
said TO be good.
The reports of the astronomers and sur.
yeyors, and the arguments OF the agents, are
said to be immensely voluninous and 10 bear

not to their talents. Journal.
