Accouchment Of the Empress of France.
The French and English papers are equally full
Of details respecting the birth and baptism of the
son of Napoleon and Eugenie.
According to official announcement the Empress
was taken i'll at FIVE o'clock on Saturday morning
18th, and notice of the fact was Immediately sent
by order of the Princess of Essling grand mistress
Of the Empress's household to all the members of
the Bonapartc family, the Ministers, Senate Depu-
ties Council Of State and high functionares of the
government. The Senate soon afterwards assem-
bed at the Luxembourg, and the Deputies in their
Chamber, where they remained permanence
The officers of State assembled, and remained all
day and night of Saturday, in a chamber close to
that of the Empress. The Emperor, the Princess
of Essling and Madame Montijo, the Empress's
mother remained in Eugenie's apartment. The
Municipal Council Of Paris assembled in pern,a-
nence at the Hotel d'Vie, and considerable crowds
Of citizens around the Tuileries.
At a quarter to 3 o'clock on Sunday morning,
the 10th, the child made his appearance in this
sinful world and the Paris papers informs us that
{" the Imperial Prince is of robust a constitu-
ton that he is nearly as big as the child of bis
nurse who is two months oldtD All the officers
Of the State above referred to were present at his
birth. The ceremony of ondoiement, or prelimi-
nary baptism, was performed with much pomp, in
the chapel of Tuleries Cardinal Dupont, Gousset,
Donnet, and Marriott the Bishop Of Nancy, and in
terror clergy aSSlsteu ana all tne ugnta1eS OF the
Empire were present. Mass was celebrated by the
Bishop of Adras, after which the Able Deplace
preached sermon from the text, Blessed is he
that cometh in the name of the Lord" and wound
up with an invocation these terms /" Bestow
on him the genius and magnanimity of his father,
the kindness and nexhaustible charity of his mo-
ther the sincere faith and devotion of both and

worthy of his destiny and his name 7" A name was
then bestowed on the infant
Napoleon Eugene Louis Jean Joseph .fls de
France.
The Imperial infant, as learn from credible
eyewitness, and not from the tattle Of courtiers,
(says the Daily News correspondent is really as
fine and robust boy ever seen. He is de-
scribed rosy, plump, web made, fully developed,
and with surprising abundance of chestnut-col-
ored hair resembling his fathers.
He Is called Napoleon and Louis after his father;
Eugene, from his mother Eugene Jean, after the
Pope, who is to be his godfather, and Joseph in
compliment to his intended godmother, the Queen
Of Sweden, whose name is Josephine.
l am assured positively (says correspondent
that the Empress did not take chloroform, and
learn on the same authority that the forceps were
used
About half past four on Saturday afternoon, dur
ing remission of the pains Of labor, the Empress
got up and walked about her apartment. leaning
on the Emperor's arm. She was distinctly seen by
many people from the gardens of the Tuilleries

EGG POWDER.


w. G. Thurgar, England, pat
entee. The nature Of this inven-
ton consists in taking fresh eggs,
breaking them, and placing their
matter in shallow trays, where
they are subjected to stream oil
moderately hot air to evaporate
all the moisture. When perfect
ly dry they are reduced to pow
der 10 a proper mill, and are EN-.
ployed in making pastry, &c.-
The air for drying the eggs must
not be allowed to exceed 1902;
is to ovaporate the moisture and
not coagulate the albumen so rs
to render the egg powder soluble
in water. This manner Of pre-
pairing eggs for market might be
pursued by some persons in onl
distantrural districts withas much
profit as preparing and drying
fruit. We throw out this hint
for the benefit of''all whom it may
concern

To Secure Wheat in Wet Weather

Having seen from the newspa-

es, of the losses md damage
which happened TO the last wheat
crop in this State, from the guam
tily Of rain which fell during har-
vest, am induced to communi-
cate the result Of my experience
as TO the best method oil saving
wheat during a continued spell Of
rain after wheat cutting has CON-
menced.
About thirty years ago, | lived
in Eastern Virginia, in the coun-
ty OF Essex. At that time, there
was the most promising crop oil
wheat growing, that | remember
Of ever having seen but once be-
fore. But, at the beginning 81
harvest, rainy spell set in, and
continued during the whole har.
vest, and for some days after the
wheat cutting had been finished
The rain fell in torrents, and, IL
the best oil my recollection, with
out the interruption of single
day. Finding that there would
be a total loss Of the crop, if per.
mitted 10 stand in the field, by
the advice ofan experienced over.
seer, (for | was then but young
farmer,) | commenced and contia'
ued to cut my wheat, regardless:
Of rain, and putt up in cocks o
Tour or five bushels, made as sharT
as theycan be formed, by pressing
the wet straw as closely as it coo
be squeezed together, and cap.
ping the cocks with sheaf O
wheat When the wheat wa.
thin, and too far to carry conve'
|niently, the cocks were made o
smaller size.
