FARM THE SAVING GRACY.-We see that Pro-
fcssor Brownson il about to give lecture on
the Immaculate Conception, under the auspices
of Archbishop Hughes. We can promise be-
forchand that il will be an interesting one.
DR.. Brownson Is remarkable man amongst
the faithful, having passed through all the
phases Of incredulity and belief. He was
brought up as Puritan, then lapsed into inf
deity, and, passing from extreme to extreme
finally became a Catholic. He is now a firm
believer in Characterization, and in all the
ancient and modern miracles. IL ia his intcn-
ton, we understand, to prove by Mathematics
metaphysics and cosmogany the truth of the
doctrine of the Imma ulate Conception. A
worthy son of the church and a true believer
is DR.. Brownson. Like the Iriehman who was
reproached for the extent OF his religious venc
ration, he is probably of the opinion that "no
man was ever damned for believing too much"
RErmISe TO RscRuT.-Wc understand that
Ex-Governor Walker, of Kansas, is rusticating
at the palatial mansion in wcstchester owned
by Mr.. Butterworth, the Superintendent of the
Assay Office. Here the Governor is preparing
his programme for the campaign Of 1860 With
due care and circumspecton His recent letters,
proclamations and pronuncidn'icntos in the news
papers have been almost entirely overshadowed
by the grand comp d'da Of Senator Douglas;
while the Little Giant himsclfhas been placed in
the background by the magnificent outburst Of
Governor Wise, who doesn't intend 10 be behind
any one in the race. ii seems 10 US that all the
politicians have their hands full just about this
time and that none Of them have exactly made
ND their minds what TO do. We find Senator
Seward, the great aniislavery leader Of the
North, quietly spending his Christmas holiday
upon nigger plantation in Virginia (owu-
cd by Mr.. Pcndleton), and ascertaining
from personal inspection that negro slavery,

easy p.ice of more perfdys Already, as we
have seen, the re-opening of the slave trade is
demanded already fresh enactments are called
for. expressly to render it in future impossible
for the people of territory toloosen the grip of
Slavery as those of Kansas have done. And to
prepare the way for this, We are forced to hear
continual homilies on the supremacy of law, on
what are called Illegal conscience" and illegal
morality phrases which sound well, but COW
er nothing more than the absurd fallacy that
everything is legal which can by any hocus po-
GUS be got enacted The question
is simply-shall the course of the Republic be
so divided as to subserve the interests of auto.
cracy or of Democracy? Shall our territories
be occupied by Lord and Serf, or by intelligent
freemeu? by laborers who are owned, OF laborers
who own themselvess''

THE exaItedra which chess holds in Paris.
is thus picturesquely told by the Baltimore
american:
In France, the game has been carried on for
more than century in the same classical apart
ments, over which the genius of silence seems
to preside, and where the grandest and the most
terrible eventsof modern history have not been
suffered to interrupt it. The Bourbons fell be.
fore the wrath of the populace, the Girondists
shared the fate of the royal family, Bonaparte
rose above the stormy morrison, blazing meteor,
and expired, the BourbonsIcame again and were
again dethroned, constitutional monarchy gave
way to Republic, which passed through an
archy into despotism, and yet, never through
these strange yicssitudes of politics was the rule
OF chess disturbed in the Cafe della Rsgence-
There were evenings, perhaps, when an officer
of the police would step into the chess room,
and, touching one of the players on the shout
der, beg that, as soon as the game was over he
would be good enough to come out and have
his head taken off by the guillotine-the great
Napoleon himself beguiling leisure hour with.
the mimic conflict Of knights and kings has
been summonded to leave the comfortable cafe
and the peaceful battlefield of red and white
and red squares, for the fatigning routine of the
camp and the fierce onset OF mortal combatants,
butlittle did such slight occurrences break in.

lowing speech, made in June, 1855, is part of

infamous laws passed by the pro-slayery. legis,
lature of Kansas, and after quoting one Of them,
made the following comment:
.'If any person print, write, introduce into or
publish, or circulate, or cause to be brought in
to, printed, written, published or circulated, or
shall knowingly aid or assist in bringing into.

dangerous or rebellious disafection among the
slaves in this territory, or to induce such slaves
to escape from the service of their masters, or
to resist their authority, shall be deemed guilty
of felony, and be punished by imprisonment,
at hard labor, for term not less than five

CIAQuEURs INPARIs.-The Paris correspond
cnt of Dwight's Journal of Music, gives an in
teresting account Of the claqueursat the Grand
Opera:
= The ctdqIeurs are exceedingly numerous in
this theatre, and had an opportunity of gain
ing some information regarding them. They
probably number from fifty to- hundred, and
occupy seats in the parterre, very nearly under
the chandelier, where they applaud at the sig.
nal OF their director, who sits in another part
OF the house. Any one can be a eLqqueur, and
the cEdqate is composed of different set of PEG.
pie every night If you want to be a cLGqueur,
you must go to the cgfe where they meet before
the performance, andla ticket will be given you.
which will admit you to the parterre on pay
ment OF tranc-one quarter the regular price.
AT most of the theatres the ct1glsuTs are admit
ted freely; but for the grand opera there are
plenty ofpeople- generally poor studcnts-who
are willing to pay a franc for the privilege of
listening to a good opera, though probably they
could not afford to pay any more. OF course It

rs the result of the investigation made in
connection with the Atlantic Telegraph :
"They satisfy me that no sea is SO
deep or SO stormy but that an electric
cord may be safely planted in the sill
waters of the bottom; that the currents
and storms which agitate the surface do
reach far down into the depths below

will last lite times at the bottom the deep

no future cable need be larger than the

Ulates the conducting wire Of ths Atlantic
