HARDNESS OF JUsTIoE.-Frequent COM
plants are made of the hardness of justice In the
courts of Virginia, in civil causes, owing to the
great difficulty of obtaining judgments on notes at
hand and simple bonds, againstthe correctness of
which no claim can be set up We know of in
stances where suits on bonds and notes have been
instituted more than year, and although the par
apparently just as far from getting judgments for
their dues now, as they were when they put there
claims in the hands of their lawyers. These de-
lays unaccountable to US and prove conclus1vee
lylthat Justice travels in slow coach, while ins
justicesmoves at lightning speed.

Louis Napoleon,

How astonishing it seems now that when
Louis Napoleon lived in England, of the many
intelligent Englishmen to whom he was well
known, there was but one, Sir Robert Peel,
who considered him a man of more than ordi-
nary talent One would think that such a man
as he has proved himself since his accession to
power in France, must have impressed every
one who came in contact with him with pro.
found sense Of his superior ability. That he is
the greatest statesman and ablest ruler Of the
old world, seems now to be the universal opin'
ion of all Europe, yet he had lived to the mid.
die age and no one discovered spark of &C.
MUS in him, till he emerged from obscuriy. I'm.
doubtedly he is great man, the master mind
OF Europe and, aided by tie English alliance,
is capable of making greater changes in the
map OF the continent than were achieved even
by his ilIustrlous uncle. Nay, England her,
sell but Tor the blue water that rolls between,
and the walls of oak that float upon the wave,
would be completely at the mercy of the neph.
ew of Napoleon. The present war has destroy
ed the prestige of the British army in the
eyes OF France and of the world. 1t has in
spired the French soldiery with a perfect con
tempt of England as a military power, and
soolhed the pride which had been wounded
and bleeding since the downfall of Napoleon. -
Without drawing the sword against hel an
cent foe, France under the second NAPOLEON,
has amply retrieved the tarnishod laurels of

It was announced some days ago that Mons
GODDARD, Col. Latham and Messrs. HOal, Grip

cinnati on Monday. 1t appears they eneoun-
tered a violent thunderstorm in the clouds,
which drove the balloon on, It is stated, az the
rate Of 40 miles an hour, and that they attain

Suddenly we felt our car rushing over the
tons of trees, crashing and tearing the limbs
as the balloon was driven along. Mons. G.
gave us the valve rope, and mounting the side
Of the car, he ordered us 10 hold fast. In an.
other moment we landed in a cornfed, and by
the force Of the wind we were dragged and
bumped along the ground distance Of half a
mile: now through a fence, then striking a
stump OF tree, or whirling through the corn
stalks at fearful velocity, our heads raped
each other and not unirequenty we saw stars
all around. Up and down we went, when the
car struck tree and Mons. GODDARD was hurl.

moment crashed against tall stump of a tree,
when. Col Latham and Mr.. Hoal were thrown
with great violence from the basket, the former
on the back Of his neck and shoulders and the
latter on his breast, Mr., Crippen and myself
were left alone in the car. Mr.. Crippen obey
ing instruction to keep in the bottom of the car,
and holding with all my might to the valve
rope, up we mounted. Fortunately we dashed
into the limbs of tall dead tree, and in an in

And over our friends large honest face stole
a look Of quite drOllery and amused recollection
which reused eur curiosity.
'Well you see, said be, in reply to another
question, 1t was about twenty years ago,
when was studying law. and my brother was
a medical student, that we..bOth iancied we had
a wonderful talent for music. So John bought
a flute, and l a fiddle, and turning one Of the
ktties into study, we practised there half the
night through. We didRt want, any one to
know about il, especially our father, who had
very strict notions as to the value of lime, and
TO make him think US usefully employed, had
q quantity Of law books heaped up, and John
had a skull, and all sorts Of bones scattered a.
round. We knew that up in our'study' no
one could hear Us, but Betsy, the housekeeper,
and as she was our old nurse, we felt sure she
would keep our secret. One morning, after
we had been Willing the long night hours
away with our music, to our own mutual de-
light. we came down late to breakfast, look
ing, suppose, somewhat unreireshed,
You must not study too hard, boys said
