Story OF FRENCH LovKR--Rather rich
story has been circulating at Paris respecting a
wealthy fnancier, whose name is not given in
full, (the Baron de R-) Deeply smtten
with the charms of fair lady, who lives near
the church of Notre Dame de Loretto, his golden
eoquence gained him the smiles of his idol On
New Years day the lady received scented
note, with the Baron's seal, and small box in
rosewood. The envelope was opened eagerly,
a tiney key fell out, and in the expectation of n
set of pearls or diamond bracelets, the fair fin
gers of the lady opened the box, which displayed
to her view row of chocolate bon bons. To
rush to the window and empty it's contents into
the street was faGaire dun moment In the
evening the amorous Baron called, dangling a
jewel headed cane; he entered the boudoir, where
with an indignant frown, the offended beauty
sat, scarcely deigning to notice her adorer The
Baron started demanded an explanation, and
was informed how his present had been received
that she had thrown his afreuses papillote,
out Of the window "Do you know what those
areuses papilloties cost 7" said the Baron, quietly
seating himself "Do you mean to insult meT
retorted the lady;"do you think counted them1'
f" You might have done so,' was the reply, fol
there were thirty" Thirty sous" interrupted
the lady Thirty thousand ffancs,' said the
Baron, playing with his watch chain; aeach Dor
bon was wrapped up in bank note" The fair
lady tainted, and the Baron is said to have en-
joycd the scene exceedingly.

THE WEEKLY DISPATCH,


PUBLISHED IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA,

1t is designed to make it equal TO any Weekly
sheet in the Union for its general interest. In
tone and sentiment, il is Sou,hern-its conductors
are Virginians, and they hope TO merit and re-
ceive the encouragement Of their fellow-citizens
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprize, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely to catch the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest, from choice, they are Southern men. Their
defence Of Southern rights is a defence Of them
selves and all they hold deAr;-that il has been
warm uuremittng, and AZ far as their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, mo- man who has read their sheet
will deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
so is to presume that the principles and ideas
which have been instilled into them from their
birth, can be eradieated, at period Of life when
men rarely change their views. They, at least !,
know it TO be impossible. M

The CoMPRoMIsE.-A true estimate Of the
compromise" is beginning to be made by many
of those who have heretofore been its warmest
sdvocntes. The Frankfort (Ky) Yeoman speaks
of it, in tho language US strong as any we have
used in the following extract;
'4'he South yielded all that could be regarded
in the nature of compromise-the North yielded
nothing. It is true portion was violently OPP
posed to the passage of the Fugitive slave law,
and only few Northern statesmen Welded their
opposition so far as to vote for it, There re.
remains large party in the free States still OPP
posed to the provisions of the law. But what
great advantage did the South gain by the pas
sage of the law which she had not before The
Constitution Of the United States guaranteed
the same rights secured by that law the ordn-
ance of 1893, older than the Constitution, pro-
vided for the reclamation OF saycs az did the acts
of Congress passed in conformity with the pro-
vision Of the Constitution. But the North had
disregarded our rights and remedies under the
ordinance, the law, and the Constitution, and
tbs Fugitive slave law merely reass4rted them.
What great things did the South gain by this !
Nothing she was not previously entitled to, if
her rights could have been enforced. No right
was changed. The remedy only was changed,
and that not materially And for this small con-
cessiol Qnthe part of the North the South yielded
much"
