The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1856-04-29
NAPOLEON III,

Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, the present
Emperor of the French, was born on the
goth of April, 1903, at the Tuilleries. His
mother was Hortense, Queen of Holland,
the wife of Napoleon's brother Louis, to
whom the kingdom had been assigned
The marriage of Hortense and Louis was
most unfortunate; they did nothing but
quarrel, and in Sept, 1907, they finally
separated at Amsterdam, and Hortense re-
turned TO her mother in Paris. There the
present Emperor was born, and it is re-
markable that he and the King of Rome
were the only two persons of the family of
Napoleon whose births were received with
military hOnors and the homage of the
people.
There is one circumstance connected
with the fate of this family which historians
have not yet observed, but which is well
worth mention. Napoleon the Great set
aside his own best friend and counsellor,
Josephine, to obtain an heir to the throne
of France. He married a Princess of
Austria, and by her had son. That birth
was the eliminating point of his power and
dignity From thence he did nothing but
descend. He died in exile-his son also.
Who succeeded to his name, his fame, his
power! The child of Hortense, who was
the child of Josephine! In the person of
the Emperor of the French we find not the
offspring of Napoleon the Great but the off
spring of his discarded wifpi What o.,
illustration of the truth of the adage, That
it is man who proposes, but God who dis
poses"
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1856-04-29
BRITISH MINISTER,

There seems no longer any doubt that
the British minister, Champion, will be i'm
mediately dismissed, in case he is not re-
called by his government. All the vaporing
and big words of the Great Thunderer at
London, will not in the slightest degree
affect this determination. Nor will any
war grow out of it, unless Great Britain is
resolved to make that cause of war which
she herself has never so recognised. The
dismissal of Sir Henry Bulwer by the
Spanish government, and of Monsieur
Pouisson, the ambassador of France, by
the administration of Gen. Taylor, did not
interrupt the peaceful relations of their
respective countries. If however, as is
possible, the British government is seeking
cause of offence, the dismissal of Champion
may lead the way to such an irritation of
the public mind of both countries, that
nothing but spark will be required to pro-
duce an explosion.

GOLD MINES IN NICARAGUA.

Ell Nicaraguense of the 22d ult., states
that the party of miners who had visited
Rio Bola on prospecting tour, report most
favorably. In three days they took out
gold to the value of $500. Much of the
gold is coarse, and several Jumps have been
taken out weighing about a half ounce
each. The party are in high spirits with
the prospects. The average yield during
the time they have been at work has exceed
ed ten dollars day to the man. It is also
stated that Maj. Heiss, well known to the
mining community of the United States,
as the partner of Commodore Stockton in
the famous Whitehall gold mines of Virgin
ia, has made an assay of red dirt obtained
from the Colonization department., and is
satisfied from the extraordinary richness of
the same that the above statement of the
success of the mines in Chontales is not
exaggerated. This dirt was brought over
from Chontales by Judge Campbell, and
was taken out near the head waters of the
Rio Mico.

DEMOCRACY IN CALIFORNIA

1t is refreshing-almost surprising-to
find such resolution as the following adopt
ed by the Democratic Convention of Cali
fornia, at their recent session:
Resolred, That the election of N. p.
Banks. as Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives in Congress, is dangerous to the
peace and harmony of the people of the
United States and the integrity of the Union,
because the known and avowed opinions of
that gentleman on the slavery question, if
carried into effect by the election Of Presi-
dent and majority of the two Houses of
Congress entertaining similar opinions on
the question, would dissolve the Union.

IMPORTANT FROM NICARAGUA

The steamship Charles Morgan has ar
rived at New Orleans, April %, from San
Juan with dates to 10th instant.
The steamship Orizaba, from New York,
arrived at San Juan on the 10th and landed
525 passengers. The reported defeat of
Schlessinger is confirmed. Fifty of his
men were killed. The cause of the defeat is
alleged to have been negligence on the part
of Schlessinger. The remnant of his party
had arrived at Rivas. They loudly cursed
their cowardly colonel. Capt Thorpe
faced him with pistols on the field of battle,
and threatened to shoot the coward. All
was useless, however, his cowardice had
created panic. He had not taken single
precaution against surprise, though within
the heart of the enemy's country Capt.
Thorpe came passenger in the Charles
Morgan. He reports Walker in a good
position, prosperous and receiving large
accessions to his forces.
Another battle had taken place at
Arcapoka between fourteen Americans and
force of two hundred Costa Ricans. The
latter were defeated with the loss of thirty
killed, whilst the Americans had only two
killed.
