The temper in which the late settlement
Of the difficulty between France and Portu-
gal, is received in tue latter country, may be
learned from the speech of the King of Por-
tugsl at the opening Of the Cortez. He
says:-"A serious Misunderstanding arose
between my government and His Majesty
the Emperor Of the French, in consequence
of the capture of the French ship Charles et
Georges III the waters of the Mozambique

The latter, recognizing the voice of Clovis,

THE OLD Cry OF DELHI.-The rich and splen
did city Of Delhi, was founded by the Mcgul
Shah Jahan, in 1851, on the west side of the ri
yer Jamma, in the midst of fertile plain. The
palace, surrounded by wall thirty feet high,
of reddish stone, is builtalong the banks of the
river, with gardens pantrd with orange groves
and apricot trees surrounding it. The Dewan-
ikhass, or hall of audience, was the chief pride
of the palace, and an inscription proclaimed,
"If there be an elysium on earth, it is this-this
is it - In its palmy days, it contained the fa-
nous throne which stood on six legs of massy
gold, set with rubies, emeralds and diamonds,
while golden peacocks, covered with precious
stones and pearls, formed its canopy. The cell
ing Of this superb hall consisted Of satin cano-
pies, and the walls were hung with silk tapes
tries, embroidered with gold. Here the Great
Mogul, surrounded by omras, in gorgeous dress
es, gave an audience to governors and embassa-
doris, On these state occasions, he was attired
in white satin, covered with gold embroidery, a
turban, or cloth of gold, surmounted with a
heron, whose feet were covered with large dia-
monds, and collar Of enormous pearls. The
other chambers Of the palace, were not less
magnificent, and the vaults were filled with
countless treasure. The houses of the rich and
luxurient omros beautfed the two principal
streets of the city, but the houses of the poorer
classes were mean and thatched with straw.

The silly ostrich makes noise as loud (as
the roar of the lion) yet he never was feared
by man. To talk of the majestic roar Of the
lion is mere majestic twaddle, In my mention
ing this fact some years ago, the assertion was
doubted, SO have been careful ever since to in
quire the opinions of Europeans who have
heard both, if they could detect any difference
between the roar of a lion and that of an ostrich
the invariabe answer was that they could not
