born in Paris on the Goth of April, 1S0S
Ho was favorite Of his uncle Napoleon.
Upon the banishment of his family, he
removed with his mother to Augsburg.
Afterwards he became citizen of fSwitz-
erland. He was again banished from
France after the July revolution, $780,
In 1881 he took part in an Italian inser-
rection against the Pope. The same
year he visited England.-Again he re-
sided in Switzerland for two or three
years, and occupied himself with author
ship, political and military. He was
concerned in another insurrection at
Strasburg in 1886; was imprisoned in
Paris, and sent to this country.--Some
time in 1887, or '3S, he took up his resi-
dence in England, where he remained
till 1S40. For his unsuccessful affair al
Boulognc that year he was sentenced to
imprisonment for life. In lS45 he made

Agricultural. A

We have relrained hitherto from speaking Of
the "Fai.EcM County Agricultural Society,""
waiting the action Oft tie Executive Board.
On Thursday week, they held meeting, but as
there was no quorum present, full organization
was deemed lnudvisable. 1t will be seen that
another meeting has been appointed, and it is cou-
lidently expected that every member Of the Board
will bo present.
But should there be any one appointed us Vice
President of the Society, who takes no interest in
Agricultural Improvement, or who does not wish
In serve, he should immediately make his wishes
known, so that the vacancy may be filed. Let
no one suppose that the position ismerely homo
rary.-The members of the Executive Bourl was
selected with reference 10 their standing aud i'll
iluence aud their capacity 10 work. An inactive
member in tie Board will not only not be of any
service, but an absolute impediment to the cause.
The friends of Agriculture also, must awake
10 the importance OF the movement. 1t is their
Interests, which will be Immediately benefited by
ii; aud its success must depend, principally upon
their exertons and perseverance,.
Difficulties will occur, in the outset, which must
be overcome. This is not one Of those movements,
which nre pushed forward by excitement. 1t
needs tho energies and influence Of the Agricul.
tural masses to give il effect. Upon them depend
the advancement Of their own interests.

Court, in its lately announced decision, noticed
last week. The cases it will bo remembered,
were carried up on writ Of Error from the Circuit
Court of Rhode Island. In the case OF Martin
Luther vs.. l., NJ. Borden s al tho following
points were ruled:

at any time displaced the charter govern
ment is political question, aud not u ju-
dicial one,
2. That tho charter government hav-
ing at no time recognized the new gov
ernment. but denounced it as revolu-
tionary and reasonable, and not only op-
posed it by military force, but prosecu-
ted and convicted Governor Dorr, the
leader Of the movement, under the crimi-
! nal law of the State--in which case and
in others the charter government was
sustained by the Courts of Rhode Island
and that the Federal courts, under an
established rule of decision, follow the
State tribunals on questions arising un'
der it's own laws.
3. That the recognition Of the charter.
ed government by tho President of the
United States, in expressing willing
ness to aid it, if necessary, in putting
down the insurrocton, by the power oI
the Union, as provided by the Constitu
: tion, is of itself conclusive on the Judi

Objects Of the Free Soil party

The Columbus Standard, the Central
o, gun of the Free Soil Party, thus pro-
claims the objects ofthat party:
The object of that party in our mind
is the vindication of the equal rights of
all men, aud the protection Of all in the
enjoyment Of those tights by equal laWs.
We go for The repeal IF all Laus in this
State that make any distinctions among
men. on account Of color or any thing else.
We go for the exer,ion of all the con-
slitulional powers Of the United States
Government, not only To prevent the ex-
tension Of slavery, but to effect its abO-
lition. For our part, we never expect Ia
cease our efforts as Free Soil man. un-
Ill the chains shall fall from every slave
or we cease to live. Were all our terri
tories to-day made free, we should see ne
less use for our party, and should labor
for it's ascendancy with the same zeal we
do now"

TllcIrisIl Fund.

Robert Emmett, Esq of New York, in
letter in relation to the fund collected
in this country for Ireland, says:
The total amount of contributions re-
ceived by mo is, in round numbers, $44.
500, besides which hold due bills for
several hundred dollars more which may,
or may not be paid-p,obably never will.
The total amount of disbursements is in
round numbers $4,000, and there are
some few outstanding claims ofinconsid-
able amounts to be yet settled. 1t is
impossible, therefore. 10 say what the ex-
act balance may be, but from present APP
pearances $25, 900 is fair approximation
toward it, and this sum is to be invested
in treasury notes and deposited specially
in the joint names ofat least two members
of the directory.
