Social AriSiOCracy--COnS at Lyons
The aristocracy Of Locofncoism is ex-
ceedingly shocked at the appointment OF
James Heudebert, of Jackson, Misslssip-
pi. as consul to Lyons. 1t worries the
elite ofthe distinguished Democrats more
than any other event of the day, except
the defalcation of Mr. DENLY. They do
not consider the colonel gentleman. He
is not "known" in the fashionable circles,
Ifavorably. He is plain man, engaged
in humble pursuits. the keeper of res
taurant They do not pretend to inn
peach Mr.. Heudebert's character. They
do not deny his honesty, capacity, or good
manners; bnl they dispute bis accomplish
ments for figuring in the literary and fash
ionable circles of Lyons" The Locofoco
MiSsissippian sneers at the distinguished
figure" he will make in those circles. The
Cincinnati Enquirer copies the sueers of
the Mississippidn, and the Democratic
Union transfers the whole article to its
columns, as piece of rare fun for the
elite.
The fact that Mr.. Heudebert is poor
man, and that his calling is that of an
eating house keeper, was not unknown
to the many highly respectable individu-
ais, including many Democrats, who rec
commended him to the favorable consider.
alton of the Government. Like many
other emigrants, he was reduced by re-
verses in his country TO poverty and being
too proud to beg. he was willing 10 turn
his hands to any honest employment that
would afford livelihood. The appoint
ment was a well deserved compliment to
the honest though humble French emf
grant, who is a thorough American in
heart, and thorough republican.
We should like to he furnished by the
elite with a catalogue of the pursuits and
professions to which they would confne
public employments. They have voted
it not to be the genteel thing to keep an
eating house, though one lives honestly
} and pays his debts; the vocation is Glow,
and is blackballed by the elite. If MIR
Heudebe-t had only kept "commercia
