DusKY DIPLOMATS ABRoAD.-Colored ENJOYS
extraordinary and ministers plenipotentiary are
not altogether so we'll received in Europe as ma
ny people suppose, and especially in abolition
aud emancipation-loviug England. The London
correspondent Of the New York Herald, writing
under date of FEBRUARY %, gives an Account Of
the reception of dingy diplomat from st. Do
mingo at levee in that city, which was not al
together so fattering, and also tells an amusing
anecdote of one of the same tribe of ENJOYS in
Paris. But we will let the correspondent tell
his stories in his own way:
The negro representative Of Soulouque made
his appearance this week at the Queens levee,
and in spite of all the affected sympathy Of the
English for free 'niggers,' he was avoided as
something '.odious and not to be endured" A
good joke of our Minister at Paris, Mr.. Mason,
has come over here. He was at > court ball
lately at the Tuileries, and his eye happened to
light on the Charge d. Affairs of Soulouque in
France, q fine looking black. Some one observ-.
ing his s.eady gaze, said, "Well, Mr. Mason,
what do you think of yonder blackee in his en-
broidered coat?' .Think," replied Mr.. Mason,
still regarding the negro with the eye Of con-
noisseur, g why clothes and oil, Think that fell
low is worth thousand dollars" This is "Old
virginny" all over, and every body is laughing
1t the bon nat. Fs. ,--ss-

Correct Portraits,

The following portraits are sketched from life,
once recognize the originals:
The MODEL WIDowER.-He begins to think of
No. 2 before the weed on his hat loses its first
gloss. May be seen assisting young girls to get
| a seat in church, or ordering carts off dry
crossings for pretty feet that are waiting to pass
over. Is convinced that he was never made to
live alone His children must be looked after,
or, if he hasn't any, he would like to be looked
after himself. Draws deep sigh every time a
dress rattles past him with female in it. Is
very particular about the polish of his boot or
the fit Of his glove; thinks he looks very inter-
estng in black. Don't walk out in public much
with his children, when he does, takes uhe youn-
gest! Revives his old taste for moonlight poe
try; pities single men with all his heart; won
ders how they contriye to exist? Reproves lit
tie John for saying s. Pa |! " so loud, (when he
meets him in the street Sets his face against
the practice Of women going home "alone and
unprotected" from evening meetings. Tells the
widows his heart aches for 'em. Wonders which
of all the damsels he sees he shall make up his
mind to marry. Is sorry that he shall be obliged
to disappoint them all but one! Has long since
preferred orange blossom to the cypress wreath.
Starts some fine day and refurnishes his house
from garnet to cellar; hangs his wifes portrait
in the attic, (shrouded in old blankets and mar
ries playmate of his eldest daughter;
THE MODEL WIDow-She wouldn't wear her
veil upon any account. Thinks her complexion
looks fairer than ever, in contrast with her sa-
bles. Sends back her new dress because the
folds Of Grape on the skirt isn't deep mourning
enough. Stedily refuses to look in the direction
Of dress coat for one week. Wonders if that
handsome Tompkins who passes her window
every day is insane enough to think that she will
ever marry again Is very fond of drawing off
her glove and resting her little white hand upon
her black bonnet thinking it may be suggestive
of an early application for the same. Concludes
to give up housekeeping and try boarding at a
hotel. Accepts Tomkins' invitation to 'attend
the children concert just to please little Tom
my! Tommy is delighted and thinks Tomkins
is a very kind gentleman to give so much candy
and so many bon bons. His mama begins to
admit certain little alterations of her sorrow, in
the shape Of protracted conversations, walks,
rides, calls, SC. She cries title when Tommy
asks her if she has forgotten to plant the flow
ers in q certain cemetery. Tompkins comes in
and thinks her lovlier than ever, smiling through
her tears. Tommy is sent out into the garden
to make "pretty dirt pies" Ito the utter demo-
lition of new frock and trousers,) and returns
very Unexpectedly to find his mama's cheeks
very rosy, and to be tossed up into the air by
Tompkins, who declares himself his 'snew, new
papa"

FIGHT BETWEEN 1000 HoRsEs.-southey in
his history of the Peninsular War, says Two
of the Spanish regiments which had been quar-
tered at Funen were cavalry, mounted on fine,
black, long tailed Andalusian horses 1t was
impracticable to bring of these horses-1 ,O0O
in number-and Romano was not q man who
could order them to be destroyed; he was fond
of horses himself and knew that every man was
attached to the beast which had carried him so
far aud so faithfully. Their brides we're there
fore taken of, and they were turned loose upon
the beach. A scene ensued, such as probably
had never before been witnessed. They were
sensible that they were not under the restraint
of human power. A general conflict ensued in
which, retaining the discipline they had been
taught they charged each other in squadrons of
some ten or twelve together, then closely en-
gagged striking each other with their fore-feet,
and biting and tearing each other with the most
ferocious rage, and trampling over those which
were beaten down, till the shore, in the course
of an hour, was strewn with the dead and disa-
bled. Part Of them had been set free on rising
ground at q distance; they no sooner heard the
roar Of battle than they come laundering down
over the intermediate hedges, and catching the
contagious madness, plunged into the fight with
quite equal fury. Sublime as was the scene, it
was too horrible to be long contemplated, and
Romano in mercy, gave orders to destroy them,
but it was found too dangerous to attempt this,
and after the last boat had quit the beach, the
few horses that remained we're seen still en-
gagged in that awful work of mutual destruction.

sober remarks heard, stated that gentlemen
