LAMARTINE ON THE CoUP D. ErAT in the
Pays, i.amartne's paper, on Wednesday, the
following occurs g" At present we raise our
voices neither to approve nor to protest. We
feel that all discussion is impossible, not only
because the government would not permit it,
but because our own conscience would prevent
us. What we every day asked for was, that
France should be saved from the crisis which
awaited her in 1852. The assembly elung with
obstinacy to the fatal law of May 81, and that
body has ceased to exist. The assembly perish
ed precisely frow two causes, the disastrous ef.
fects OF which we had in vain attempted to para
ysc the law of May 3lst destroyed the majority,
and socialism detroyed the minority Betu cen
the law Of May 3lst and socialism, there were
the republic and universal suffrage, and it is pre-
cisely these two words which were invoked by
Louis Napoleon Bonaparte to dissolve the assem-
by, and thus TO destroy the constitution We
were marching forward to catastrophies amidst
those two currents OF passions, ambitions ran
cours, and hatreds, the believing of which
scarcely permitted some independent voices to
make the cry Of alarm heard which France was
raising. lftho-e voices had been heard, il tho
law OF May 3lst had been repealed, il tho re-
vision OF the constitution had been accepted by
the minority, il all the parties had consented TO
do what Louis Napoleon Bocaparte had lust
uohe hhseH--tlit Is, 10 allow the people TO
decide-we re convinced that what has hap
pened would never have occurred We ac
cuse no one; for, were we to commence, We
should be obliged, perhaps, to accuse every one.
The present situation is not our work. We have
not desired it, but we take it as it il, and with
the desire as public men. to fulfil all the duties
which it imposes The assembly is dissolved,
and the constitution has Disappeared But
there remains two great things, the republic
and universal suffrage. there remains also,

The schooner Virginia, Of and bound to this
place, was capsized in gale of wind, on last Sat
urday, while off Blackstone Island, and all the
Grew, consisting Of three persons, two young men
named Robert and John Ellis, and black man
named Frank Tolson, wero drowned. The schooner
Gazele, which left in company with her, is also
missing but it is hoped she succeeded in making
harbor.
The following is copy Of the memorial which
is to be presented to the Councils of our town, by
the friends Of temperance:
eve, the undersigned, citizens and voters Of
Georgetown, believing that large share of the
poverty, vice, and crime and many of the viola
tons of the community to be the result, either
directly or indirectly, of tho influence of intoxi-
eating liquors; and that their use, except for
medicinal or mechanical purposes, may be aban-
doned without infringing upon the health, hap
piness, or prosperity Of any individual and be-
lieying that the moral condition of our citizens
would be greatly improved, and their peace and
safety better secured by the adoption of SOME
wise and just temperance measures, do, therefore,
most humbly and earnestly pray your honorable
bodies, that you will forthwith adopt such
measures as you, in your wisdom, may deem
necessary to prohibit or restrain the traffic in in
tsxicating liquors with the limits of the Corpo-
ration"

B3- Many Incidents occurred in the recent
Presidential election which were gratifying, and
none more so than the generous response giving
to the call for contributions to the Washington
Monument now in the course Of erection in this
city. In some places the plan adopted was in
genious and effective. Boxes were placed up for
separate donations from Wings and Democrats,
and the result was creditable to both parties
The erection of this monument is national one
work of the people What more fitting design
than that the monument to Washington, the ia
Their of his country, should be erected by the uni
ted exertions of all his people 1t will rebuke
the false ard sanderous assumption that Repub-
lies are ungratefu that sacrifices for the good of
millions are lily repaid and seldom remembered
In the future we trust such opportunities will be
embraced to swell the general fund for the ereo-
ton of work of art noble in its design, grand
in its conception, and every way worthy Of the
man and the country.

Warrington Monument.

On the national election day, the plan was re-
sorted to, in several of the cities and towns, of
placing at the polls boxes for the receipt Of the
voters contribution, dime each, in aid Of the
erection of the Washington Monument. We have
only seen accounts of the sums SO collected from
fifteen towns; but the results are such as give us
the assurance, that If the same mode Of raising
funds had been generally adopted all over the
Union, the aggregate collection would have
reached figure more than sufficient to complete
that national undertaking We subjoin the list
of these collections, compiled from our ex-
changes and telegraphic dispatches:

1t Is now some FIVE years since the erection OF
this monument designed to show the nations re-
spect for the memory Of Washington, was COM
menced and still it progresses slowly along for
the want of the necessary means to prosecute the
work with vigor Instead of the expense being
met by appropriations from Congress, it was en-
trely left to private contributions; and we trust
that, in the direction Of these there will not be
the same laundering mismanagement and ines-
cheney shown as in the erection Of the Bunker
Hill monument. If all the money actually con-
tributed for that monument, during long series
Of years, had been sent direct into the fund, it
would have been almost doubly sufficient to have
completed the monument; but instead Of that, a
large proportion oft wasidy and uselessy squan /.
dered in ministering to the self conceit and rdi.
culous pride Of those into whose hands il went.
Every little temperance circle, public or Sunday
school union, literary institution, and village
poraton, contributed literally towards that OBJ
ject. And, finally, it was finished by the ladies
of Boston. Now, the Washington monument is
TO be completed Popes, Sultans, Emperors and
Kings strange to say, have sent contributions to
IL; States, societies, and individuals, have for
warded blocks Of marble, gold quartz rock from
California, copper rock from Lake Superior, gra
mite from Quincy, Massachusetts, SC. &C., to
erect column to "greet the sun in it's coming
in honor Of the Father of his Country, and of true
republicanism. Moneyis now wanted to complete

A shopkeeper in q small town one day marked
some handkerchiefs in his window with the tempt
ing words, "selling at half price |" Soon after a
lady who had traded with him before, entered
the establishment, and having examined the
handkerchiefs, inquired the price.
Fifty cents apiece" politely replied the shop
keeper.
Every well, said the lady, "you may do me
up a dozen"
The handkerohiefs were cut off and delivered
to the lady, who gave the shopkeeper three dol
lar bill.
"Beg pardon, ma'am; but I-ah-told you the
handkerchiefs were fifty cents piece, that is--sh
six dollars dozen.
"To be sure, understand as much arithmetic
as that Six dollars is the price; half of six ia
three; that is half price. | think that is cheap
enough. Good day sir.
The lady shut the door. The shopkeeper
opened hi, eyes For Eve minutes he stood still
as stump gazing yacantly at the window; then,
biting his lips, asd coloring very red, he gently
removed the card pinned to the handkerchief,
and resolved to announce no more goods as
selling at half price"
