year as the Emperor Napoleon the Duke of Wellins

Sonvenus. His long and active career, which has
ceeded that OF all his companions in arms has been
marked with every success and by the two-iod glory
gwen by the works al war and OF peace a great
citizen, great captain, great administrator, great
politician, it may be said that the lie OF the Marshal
has been complete.
This First-Lieutenant of tins Emperor Napoleon
marched IS private soldier under the standard of
armies. 81 years ago, before the fall of the old mon
arch and before the breaking out Of he French re-
Voutlon. Hetook an active and brilliant part the
most memorable campaigns OF the revolution and the
empire. When these gigantic struggles had ceased,
Marshal Sout came to occupy in the councils OF The
country that place which he could no longer fill on
helds OF battle. AS Minister of War, he devoted his
genius as administrator to the Reorganization Of
the army, under the critical circumstances In which
the rev luton of July had placed France.
AS President OF the Council OF Minister'S ct different
times, he was one OF tho mss most Intelligent, and
most devoted supporters OF that Liberia! and constitu
tona throne to which France owed eighteen years oil
repose of happiness of Order and true liberty. The

The New Orleans Picayune says that thewar
with Mexico has taught the Mexicans to lay a
high value upon American horses, and that some
forty or fifty very fine specimens of Kentucky
and other Western breeds, have been shipped
from that port to Vera Cruz within the last three
weeks; another cargo of twenty-five will be for
warded in day or two and about twenty more
will be shippedin the course of a fortnight. The
animals thus sent out are said to be of the very
best breed, and were picked out especially to
suit the tastes of the most extravagant Mexican
admirer of horse flesh. The speculation appears
to be as successful as it is novel.

SLAVERY IN CALIFORNIA.

The last news from California shows that the dis
custom about the division of the State and the intro
duction ofslavery, is becoming mora and more ami.
mated aad may in fact be onsidered the great topic
OF the times. The San Francisco Herald OF the 18th
ut, in the course OF long article deprecatog exc-
ted and angry discussion tho subject of ntroda cling
slavery, makes the following Interesting statement
" 1t may startla those who appen to be nervous on
this subject TO be informed that slavery exists and
has always existed ia California since the adoption of
the constitution. la the mining counties and even in
San Fir anclsco there many slaves, and yet there
is manifest arrangement OF public morals in conse-
quence do the people generally seem to give them
selves much anxiety on the subject. There is no at
tempt to ince the slaves 10 runaway, and they them
selves, catching he healthy tone of public srntinent
never entertain thought of such thing. We know
some OF Them whose earnings amount as much as
the pay OF post captain in the navy; and who can
purchs their freedom at any time but perfectly
content with their present condition. These facts GO
prove that it will be difficult, without perseyering
agitation TO generate bigotry in The minds Of the
people Of California the slavery question, or to
convert it into element OF dscord and such perse-
yering agitation we hope never to see."

DEATH OF PRIEssNITz The great author of the
water for human disease, the renowned Press
nz, We learn by the last foreign advces, is dead
His great remedy could not save him from the uni
vsrsal doom. A letter says:
For the last year Priessnitz had elt himself gradu.
ally sinking and this winter, for the first time during
long period OF practical Iiie he found himself
oblige to limit his lists to the immediate vicinity of
his residence at Grafenburg. Within month before
his demise, he showed symptoms OF general dropscal
complaint. He treated himself with the utrn os clear
ness of mind but entertained little hope OF his even
tual recOgery He said he should live to see the
spring return. Up to almost the very last day of his
life he continued TO give his advice those who sought
him. Poor Priessnz, his head was perfectly clear to
the last, but he looked like shadow, and without
smile any longer on his face.
The day before his death, after taking the "cure" las
the curative process is here caledl he saw
warmly clad. Thus it is evident that the exraordi-
nary will and the moral courage upheld by faith in
hydropa THO cure, which he had shown with regard to
others all his life, was strong in him to the last. On
the day OF his death, the 18th of November his symp-
toms became aggravated; he grew weaker and weaker
and about five in the afternoon he laid nl2elf on his
bed, without any assistance and. in one minute after.
ward, he breathed his last. He only 50. linear
ly lie he received serious injury In the chest from
an accident, and he used 10 say himself that his
constitution was bad; that nothing but his own life
and his own "cure" would havs Gus aimed him.
1t is not known what attempts will be made to car
ry on the establishment at Graenberg, which was in
fall activity at the moment of Pressnitzs death. The
most probable conjecture u.s. that Priessnitzs eldest
daughter and her husband, Ia Hungarian gentleman OF
propefty) Will carry II on with the lid oil Ihysi-
clan who has studied Priessni rs method here
1t is not exactly knowl what amount of property
Pressni'z has left, but it is supposed to be nearly
100000.
