BEAUTIES OF JACKSONISM.
From the ". Y. american.

Senator Bcn'ons Prediction literally fulflled.-
The Journal of Commerce of this morning says
"LctcrS received III this city from Washington,
state that many Members ofthc House have taken
the prccauton to carry about their person, be-
ing determined not to be intimidatcd into silence in
tho matter of Iloustons outrage upon MIR. Stan
berry, and at the time convinced that if they
give utcrance to their sentiments ii will be done at
their peril"
We believe nothing can open the eyes of your
true Jackson believer; that with lovers infaua-
ton, every fault of his idol appears beauty in his
eyes Nevertheless the state of things here dis
closed, ought and must, think, make sensible
impression upon his rational supporters. Benton,
who had abundant cause to know jackson, predict
od that the necessity would follow his election, Of
egislating with pistols in belt. Benton and Ritchic
are not the less true prophets, that they have bent
the knee to the Baal of whom they lorctold. Verify
they shall have their reward.
The Journal of Commerce has those particulars
in connexion with the subject. Houston's
application to Mr.. Johnson, through Treasurer
Campbell is We fancy Inexperienced by the wri-
ter.

FRENCH APPROPRIATIONS.

The general Appropriation Bill, having been re-
turned TO the House from the Senate on FRIDAY,
with the appropriation for Minister to France,
cxpungcd, Mr.. McDufic, moved to concur with
the Senate in their amendment. Tho motion was
supported by MeSsrs. McDunic T.. Everett, Ingcr-
soil, and Burgess, opposed by Mcssrs. Wilde, Arch
er, Wayne, Adams John $. Barbour, Clayton,
Drayton, Barringer, and Burd, and negatiyod, ayes
el-mocs 93.
The House thus refuse to concur in this amend
mcnt, and there is collision between it and the
Senate. The Senate will probably adhere, and the
House reccde.

LETTER FROM PARIS.


Our countrymen, as class, are distinguished
wherever they are met not as Americans,
however; for of the habits and manners of our
country, people know nothing this side OF the
water. But there is something in an American
face, of which | rever was aware till | met
them in Europe, that is altogether peculiar.
The French take the Americans to be English !;
but an Englishman while he presumes him his
countryman, shows a curiosity to know who he
is, which is very foreign to his usual indiffer-
ence. As far as | can anayze 1t. it is the indie.
pendent, selfpossessed bearing of man unused
to look up TO any one as his superior in rank,
united to the inquisitive, sensitive, communi.
catve expression, which is the index to our ma.
tional character. The first is seldom possessed
in England but by man of decided rank, and
the latter is never possessed BY an Englishman
at all. The two are united in no other nation
Nothing is easier than to tell the rank of an
Englishman, and nothing puzzles a European
more than to know how to rate the pretensions
of an American. feel very proud of my coun-
trymen here.
Paris, of course, is rife with politics. There
is but one opinion on the subject of another
pending revolution. The " peoples king is
about as unpopular as he neeo be for the pur-
poses of his enemies
In the event of an explosion, the liberal party
will not want partisans, for France is crowded
with refugees from tyranny of every nation
The Poles are flocking hiiher every day, and
the streets are full of their melancholy faces
Poor fellows! they suffer dreadfully from
want. The public charity for refugees has been
wlung dry long ago. and tho most heroic hearts
of Poland, after having lost every thing but life
in their unavailing struggle, are starving abso
lutely In the streets. Lafayette, am crediby
assured, has anticipated several years of his in.
come in relieving them.
The papers are ravlng against the ministry
in the most violent terms, and the king is abus
ed, without qualification, every where. 1t i:

without hazarding my single opinion. l quote
the most intelligent men have met, in saving
! that there is every appearance OF determination
and resentment working at the heart of the
| whole people, and change must come some
| where. Heaven send it soon, if the dlstres:
and wretchedness that meet the eye at every
step, depend upon political change for alevia
ton! We apprehsnd measures in our country
with sufficient Indignation and cutlery; but to

to FIRE the most unwilling blood to resentment

For Cleaning and Preserving the Teeth and
Cleansing the Mouth.

For Cleaning and Preserving the Teeth and
Cleansing the Mouth.
THE Compound Chlorine Tooth Wash
IL effectually cleanses the Teeth, and will an
swer the purposes of the best dentifrice. 1t con-
tains no acid or any ingredient which can in any
be injurious. 1t will also be found to keep the
brush itself free from all impurities. 1t has the
further advantage OF cleansing the mouth also ;
and of removing whatever is offensive in the
breath. 1t hardens the gums, and is valuable
remedy for the canker or soreness of the mouth
In fine it preserves the teeth and mouth in all
respects in clean and healthy condition. 1t is
agreeable to the taste. Gentlemen who are in
the habit of using tobacco, will find that the tooth
wash will speedily remove all the effects of it from
the mouth.
That the public may rest assured Of the very
salutary effects of this composition the following
recommendations which have been received by
Lowe & Reed, Proprietors, are submitted.
From C. II. Stedmap, III D.-U. S. Marine
Hospital, March 9, 1881. Having examined and
employed the Chlorine Tooth Powder, prepared
by you. feel happy to say that am fully coll
WINGED of its utility in diseases of the teeth and
gums and with this view cheerfullv recommend
it TO the attention of the public. G.. II. STEDMAN.
From s. H. Shutlef, NJ. d. Boston. March
Is, 1881. have used yonr Compound Chlorine
Tooth Wash and find it an excellent article for re-
moving the fetid breath from decayed teeth, and
also in restoring the gums when spongy. to per-
feet health. On using it in the evening, it will
preserve sweet and pleasant taste in the mouth
during the whole night. | have prescribed it in
diseases occasioued by mercuriaIs, and find it ex-
GELS all other remedies in restoring the mouth to
healthy state, in short time. S. A. SHURTLEFF.
From J, b. Flint, M d. Boston, March l6,

rine Tooth Wash you were good enough to put
into my hands, and a your request am very will.
ing to say that the result Of my little expe rience
confirms the opinion had formed of it from
knowledge Of its composition. believe it TO be
an ingenious, agreeable, and effcscious prepare
ion for preventing the offensive effects OF deprsv
ed secretons in the mouth, and for invigorating
and preserving the gums. JOSH. b. FLINT.
