Ofthe L. y;cidtvr or wash-company-they lniefm the

amt Tin their case - good as kick) from
Government to do 40 they have done. Gov
eminent, az l have often said of late, fears
the results of the present ver.eager spirit
Of speculation; and is especially DESTROYS,
while striving to keep it within rational bounds, to
clear its own skirts Of the sin Of participation in
the Legitimate gains Of stOck-gambing. Ii Is,
dOubtlesr, all the more in earnest in the matter
because conscious of the popular persuasion that,
whatever may be its immaculateness at the
present day, time was-aDd that not long ago
when its skirts were essentially dabbled gold color
in the Pactolus of the Bourse. On the other
hand, the getters up of new companies are
desirous of strengthening the force of their
appeals to public cupidity by the prestige
which an array of titled names in their list of
directors gives them. And it is believed that in
some cases the owners Of these titled names
counts, dukes, senators, etc exchange the use OF
them for scrip, and even for ready cash. The
whole situation, as the French would cay, is
illustrated in the case Of the General European
Company of Emigration and CoLoni-atios. Among
the directors of this company was q notary q
have forgotten his name-suppOse Mchel), who,
having no noble title or marked political or other
position Of his own was set forth as n. Michel
notary, cousin german of q Colonel of the Impe-
'rial Guard who distinguished himself in the at
tack on the Redan." The cOmpany's adver-
tisement, inserted capitally in the journals
month ago, went on to say that sit count
led among its large stockholders august char
'acters on the steps of the throne"-(Gs-
pUsfes personnes sur les marches du trjne.)
ThereupOn out comes The MOniteur with an oddly
written protest, which says, among other things:
"Wbie pointing out what is radically false in this
advertisement, We will add that their Imperial
"Highnesses the Prince Jerome Napoleon and
Ibis son the Prince Napoleon, who seem to
"be indirectly designated, have no interest
sin any kind of commercial enterprise and
especially in the company OfemgratiOn, etc" The
especially following on the " no interest in any
kind :" is an amusing instance of cumulative force.
Well, it turned out that an ad-de-edmp of Jerome,
one General Ricard, ras engaged in the company.
When Jerome heard of that-JerOme, who is a
clean skirted man, very, and scrupulOus, as his
tory long ago has recOrded-he expressed his as
tOnishment to the General in q way that led the
General to offer his dismissOn, which was accept
ed. Since then, that is, any time during the past
thirty days, you may read any number OF depreca-
tory notes in the journals signed by Senators and
other Government men, stating either that they
resign their Office as directors of this that wild
cal" company, or that they never fairly gave said
company the right to make public use of their
names.
The Austrian Archduke, after being put through
the course of fetes, theatrical entertainments,
balls banquets, military reviews, ETC.. that are Or
dinary offered to the sprouts of royal families
visiting Paris, has gone home by way of Havre,
CherbOurg and Brussels. Prince Oscar of Sweden
remains till after the baptism. A grand review
was held on the Champs de Mars for their amuse-
ment last Tuesday; it was much the same thing,
q Judge by description, have not seen review
there these three years., as the military spectacles
given to Queen Victoria the King of Portugal,
and the rest of them. When Car Alexander
comes to Berlin, King William will show him his
soldiers in the same way. 1t is quite like Mrs.
.JeDkins's little Billy coming to see your little
Tommy. Tommy cannot think OF any better way
of amusing bis guest than ranging out all his play
things before him, wooden troopers and ALL more or
less to Blly's delight or contempt, according to
Billy's innocence vi nature or superior riches in
that kind.
Count Orlof who was seized with some diplo-
matte malady Of the eyes after his 0stensbe bust
ness in Paris was accomplished, is now cured and
ON the point of departure if not already departed.
correspondent from Nice writes to The T0u-
louise Senfiseite, that Garribaldi, who has been
quietly living in the former city, has recently left
there to establish himself in the Island Of Sardinia
A provincial paper states that Council of Rab-
bins 10 now in session at Paris, having for the
object of their deliberations the proposition of
transferring the Jewish Sabbath from Saturday to
Sunday.
A Prussian paper gives list, that seems to be
Official, Of the accidents on Prussan railways for
several years past. In the years 1854 and 1855,
according to this authority, not passenger has
been killed. Of the three passengers wounded in
1855, two brought the misfortune on themselves
by leaving the cars csrelessly So that of II, 0O0.
$40 passengers conveyed on Prussian railways in
1855, only one was injured without his own fault.
Here is lesson for US. But we are in such q hurry
that none will stop to con it.
