seurs of the old guard was to be recognized BY
the dark green OF the coat and the bright red
tacings. The grand Gordon of the legion of
honor was across the waistcoat, and the white
breeches were partly covered by the hat,
which was placed on the things. The epau-
letteS, the star and other decorations at ached
to the brest, had lost their hrilliancy and turn
cd black. The gold crown of the cross of Off
Ger OF the Legion of Honor had alone preser-
we'd its polish. Vases of silver appeared be-
tween the legs, one surmounted BY an eagle,
which rose above the knees; they were found
entire, and closed. As there were adheSons

an expectation of proceeds as follows;-
This Is not the place to inquire into the
causes which have to this extent arrested the
progress of decomposition, but there is no
doubt that the extreme solidity of the masonry
OF the tomb, and the care taken in making and
soldering the coffin in metal, have powerfully
contributed to this result. However this may
be, feared the effect of the atmosphere upon
the remains, and was convinced that the best
means of preserving them still longer was to
exclude them from its action. | eagerly com

The cheeks were full. The tegumentS of this
part of the face were remarkable for their
softness to the touch and their whiteness.
Those of the chin were slightly blue, a lint
they had borrowed from the beard, which had
grown after death. The chin itself had I'M
dergone no change, and still preserved the
peculiar type of the face of Napoleon.
The thin lips were parted, and three of the
incisive teeth, very white, appeared under
the upper lip, which was little raised to-
ward the left. The hands were perfect, not
having undergone the least change. Although
the Joints were stuff, the skin preserved that
peculiar color which is only to be found in
the living man. The nails of the fingers
were long apd adherent, and very white. The
legs were in boots; but in consequence of the
opening of the seams, the last four toes were
out on each side. The skin of these toes
was of dead white, and furnished with nails.

THE REMAINS OF NAPOLEON.

The following particulars from the BalG-
more American, relative to the diSInerment
of the remains of Napoleon from their tomb
atSt. Helena are given in the report of Count
Rohan Chabot and Captain Alexander, the
French and English commissioners appoint ted
TO superinend the exhumation. After men
tioning the persons who entered within the en-
closure, the report proceeds as follows:
1--WE first removed the iron railing that sur
rounded the tomb, together with the strong
layers of stones on which it was fixed, and tire
covering of the tomb ii feet inches by
feet inch, composed of three slabs, set in
second edging of masonry, was then remove,
This was done by half past one. We thel
lopnd a rectangular wall forming the fou
SIDES OF vault ii feet deep, and feet by tou
leet inches in the area. This vault wa
hlled with earth to within inches OF the top.
Alter having dug into this earth Tor feet 10
inches, we found a layer of Roman cement
adhering firmly all over the surface, and her
metically fastened to the sides OF the walls.
BY three O'Clock, this layer having been COM
pietely laid bare, the commissioners descended
into the tomb, and verified that it was perfect
ly intact and without any injury in any part.
The layer of cement having been cut through,
it was found TO cover another layer, ten inches
with iron stancheonS, which we were not "a
Die to get removed until after four hours and
half work. The extreme difficulty OF this
operation decided the English commissioners
on cutting a trench on the left of the vault,
and on knocking down the wall in order to
arrive at the coffin, in case of the upper layer
SsHerng too strong resistance for farther eff
iofS, which were made simultaneously 10
pierce through it. But the layer having been
eGNrely removed by about So'clock, the works
o. o. he lateral trench were abandoned. lmme-
eelalely under the layer thus demolished we
found a.strong slab feet u inches long, 3
se' VIDE and 5 inches thick, forming the COW
eflng Of the interior sarcophagus containing
sue coffin. This slab, perfectly sound, was
surrounded by an edging of blocks OF stone,
ana Roman cement strongly fastened to the
wan OF the vault. This last piece of masonry
having been carefully removed, and two bolts
saving been fixed on the slab, every thing was
oesay by haIf-past nine for opening the sar-
SSophagus. DR.. Guillard then purified the tomb

AN EXCELLENT REPARTEE.-A certain female
IN one of the Atlantic cities was prosecuted
for keeping disorderly house. She engaged
professional gentleman TO defend the sur;
but when tile trial came on she appeared in
court, and possessing a termagant spirit, she
commenced plea of justification in proprid
persona. The counsel whom she retained for
the occasion, expostulated with her in vain.--
The opposing counsel, hoping she would COM
NIT herself, encouraged her to proceed, and
begged her TO go on. Her lawyer tren.belng
for her cause renewed his expo>tulation when
she appealed TO the Judge. "Sr," said she,
''have not got right to be heard in my de-
fencel"
The Judge, who enjoyed the embarrassment
of the lawyer re piled, 40, certainly; pray pro-
coed"
She then went on. MAY it please Your
( honor | am accused of keeping dsorderly
house, which is frequented by such gentlemen
as Mr.--and Mr. - naming several
eminent merchants, and adding ct the same
time the names of number of lawyers. The
court was convulsed with laughter. Upon
which her counsel, who could contain himself
no longer, begged in heavens name, that she
would sit down.
"Whatp exclaimed the archly smiling Judge,
"you are not afraid hope, Mr." "No.
may it please your honor" he immed iately
replied with inimitable elfposseSsion, 81 have

GOV. MCNUTT OF MISSISSIPPI.

To this gentleman belongs the distinguished
notoriety of being the first public functionarv
in high station, who has officially recommen-
ded the people of this country to violate the
plighted faith of their government, and escape
the fulfilment of an obligation which he him
self had asserted they were bound to discharge.
In his Message last year, he said-"The faith
OF the state is pledged for the achOle capital
stock of the Union Bank, and the property of
all her citizens may hereafter be taxed 10 make
up the detalcatlons." This year he says
The Executive has never admitted the vald-
~ of the sale of the State Bonds of the Union
Bank" and counSels the Legislature to rob
the holders of them, by refusing to pay either
principal or interest. And upon what grounds!
Why saws the Govenorin substance, the Bonds
are owned by the United State Bank; the u.
States Bank is an internal scoundre no one
will suffer but this scoundrel-theretore we
need not tax ourselves to pay the debt This
Is the plain English of that portion of his Ex-
cellency'S message. A more disgraceful prop
ostion was never submitted 10 the represen-
taiveS of free people. 1t will give to Gov.
McNutt as a statesman and politician an inn
mortality OF nfamy.
We are glad TO perceive that the people of
Mississippi are every where lndgnatly repu-
dating the wholesale system of robbery, which
McNutt recommended to their adoption, and
that thew are determined, cost what it may, to
maintain the honor and faith of the State
There is without doubt, even now decided
majority in the legislature in favor of making
anv and every sacrifice, 10 avert the indelible
disgrace which the fell spirit of ulra locofoco-
ism would bring upon the people and govern
ment of Mississippi. The coming elections
will increase that majority, by the return Of
members from wing counties now representa-
by men attached to the McNutt faction. L.
better day is dawning upon-the character and
credit of Mississippi. The charlaiins who
have brought her to the verge OF ruin, will
soon be expelled from all control over her des-
tiny. Her honor and her faith will be vindi-
Gated before the world and with her vast re-
sources and recuperative energies, she Will
soon emerge from the low condition TO which
she has been bronght by the political quackery
and knavery of her rulers
