1.-THE Zouaves have been much admired by
both armies, they are the first soldiers IN the
world this was written by Marshal St. Ar
maud to Napoleon Ill. on the evening of the
battle of Alma. It is now almost five years
since this glorious truth has been recorded in
our military history. and every new fight has
been occasion for the Houaves to increase, if
possible, their renown, which is now Europe
an. The four regiments Gncluding that of
the Imperial Guard) which arc now acqui-
ring fame in Italy have each their glorious
blazon but they have also Inherited that of
the old regiment of Zouaves, which from 1880
to 1852 has taken part in all the campaigns
and all the works which have secured the
conquest of Algeria
Armed with a rife and spade, sleeping in
he bushes and ploughing il the desert, the
Zouaves were fighting and building strategi-
cal roads at the same time. Like the old
soldiers of the Roman legiops, who fought
and were in the meantime building those
monuments which were the first memorials
of new civilization, the Zouave has aided
to the colonization of French Algeria. His
ardor in the fight is only to be compared to
his patience at the bivuoac. His bronzed
features upon which energy, solidity and
thoughtlessness are strongly characterized /,

To General Clausel belongs the honor OF
formation of tue Zouaves. The prescribed
limits of this article do not allow us TO enter
into great particulars we will only recall tc
mind that they were temporarily organized
in 1880 with native soldiers, commanded BY
officers of the French army They received
their legal existence by the ordinance Of the
31st of March, 1881. They were then di
vid1d into TWO babtalhons, commanded by
Messrs. NJ Dumet and DuriVier. After
some more changes they were definitely Or
ganized as a regiment the Sth of September
1881 1t is from that time that the native
Africans have bean vigorously excluded from
their ranks.

The Late Rufus Choate.

The pub lie journals throughout the country
have done high honor to the talents and ge-
MUS of the late Rufus Choate He was
man of irdomitable perseverance as student
and had the rare faculty of throwing his
whole mind not only upon subject but upon
a great variety of topics, which enabled him
to draw from one to illustrate another. He
vas brilliant man, because he was difusive
in his thoughts and illustrations, and was
thus sure to touch some note Ia every breast
responsive to the theme upon which he was
engaged, His biographies are doing him all
Justice for his varied attainmcnts, and we
agree with them in tbs estimate of his powers
which were certainly admirable
Yet it will be wondered at that Mr.. Choate
beyond a small circle of admirers, was almost
wholly unknown until the praises of the
press proclaimed his death. The solution Of
ti;s is plain. Politics, in this country, will
devour ali pron.;se and all greatness. Men
/ of inferior minds and covers control not only
tie destinies of the country, but to some ex-
| tent the energies of the press, of public opln-
ion, and of individuals. Mr. Choate was
not permitted to grow into national great
| ness because it was rot for the interest OF
| political parties to trust him with national
affairs He was not fit Instrument for
tken-not sufficiently plant to suit their
tactics This is sufficient reason for she
silence that smothereI his intellectual efforts.
He was too good for politician, and not
| bad enough for statesman. Many men
with half his abilities will gaiu more political
distinction, for while the country is RULED
by demagogues, no truly great mind can be
brought into the area of the government,
except by accident Truly great men will
nos make their appearance in the natio 1al
halls till the times of danger and trouble.
Mr.. Choate was well qualified for states
manslip. He could have directed some
branches of the public service wish great
skill, for be had the power of drawing up
from the experience of men all the wisdom Of
the past and of comparing it with the wants
and necessities of the hour. Had he lived
in the days of the revolution he would have
kindled patriotism in thousand of breasts by
his persuasive eloque nee, but he was too
refined spirit for the coarse materials founc
at the root of our politics. The public may
we'll deplorc tn loss of so gifted man, ano
should learn to remember that he lived witt
only local fame. though mis- merits and hi
gifts should have given him national pane
and remembr brance.-Ia9uifer.

Has General ass Been Consistent !

Since tbs publication Of General Cass' dispatch
to the U. S. Minister at Berlin, he has been
charged by number of papers with inconsis-
tency. They assert that in the dispatch he
abandoned the doctrine which he promulgated in
the LIE Clerc and Hoffer letters. Those who VIII
take the trouble of comparing the letters referred
10 with the dispatch, will find that this charge
against Gen. Cass has no foundation in truth
whatever. The following is the substance of the
lie Clerc letter
"A passport is a mere certificate OF citizenship,
which requests foreign governments to give all
lawful aid and protection to its bearer. 1t does
not exempt him from any obligation or penalty
which he may have incurred to the government
of his native country prior to his naturalization,
if he should voluntarily repair thither."
The Hoffer letter sets forth the following doc
trines
The position of the United States is, that
naturalized citizens, returning to the country OF
their BIRTH are not liable to any duties or penal
ties, except such as were existing at the period
Of their emigration.
..If, at the time Of their emigration, they We're
In the army. actually called into it, such emf
grafton and naturalization do not exempt them
from the legal penalty which they incurred by
their desertion, if they afterwards place them
selves voluntarily within tie local jurisdiction
&c.
But when no present liabilities exist against
them at the period of their emigration, the law
of nations, in the opinion of this government
gives no right to any country to interfere with
naturalized American citizens, and the attempt
to do so would be considered an act unjust in
itself and unfrendly to the United States"
Now, where, we ask, do the doctrines cmbod-
led in the above letters, conflict with those eX-
pressed in the dispatch2 In our opinion, they
are directly consistent with each other. In the
dispatch, as in tie letters, Gen. Cass maintains
that the moment foreigner becomes naturalzed
his allegiance to his native country is severed
forever. In order to enttle his native country
to punish him for any crime. the offence mus
have been complete before he emigrated. Unles:
he had been actually enrolled into the service, o.
had been regularly drafted into the army of hi
native country, it, on his Voluntarily returning
to it, has right to claim his services as a sol
der, or to punish him dess rter.
We think no sensible man in the country vii
maintain that the doctrines laid down by Gen
Cass are wrong.

Peace.

The news brought by the ''North Briton,"
which arrived at Quebec on tie oath inst, are
very important. A treaty of Peace has leen
concluded between Austria, France and Sardinia.
According to the telegraphic dispatch, the pro
visions of the treaty are as fellows:
The italian confederacy is to be under the
honorary Presidency of the Pope. The Emperor
OF Austria comedies his right in Lombardy TO the
Emperor of the French. who transfers them to
the King of Sardinia. The Emperor ef Austria
preserves Venice. but she viii form an integral
part of the Italian confederation"
viii the peace be permanent? We think
that it will not. 1t may continue few months,
perhaps year, but the monarchs of Europe
have lost confidence in each other, and the peo-
pie are anxious fer war. We believe that the
battles already fought were merely the large
drops preceding the storm-the beginning OF
perhaps the fercest and longest struggle recor-
ded in history. It cannot be DELAYED much
longer. Europe is nothing but . slumber-
ing volcano, which is liable !o bust forth at any

SUDDEN DEATH.-The wife of Mr.. William
Lake of Allegheny township, was found dead IN
her bed, on last Monday morning. Her daugh-
ter we learn, had entered her room about an
hour before she was discovered dead, that she
spoke to her and that she then appeared to be in
the enjoyment of excellent health. On Sunday
evening when she retired to rest she was we'll
and cheerful, and seemed to entertain no appre-
tensions that she was soon to take her departure
from this world, and those she we'd. By what
a frail tenure do we hold our existence in this
world, and how true is the saying that are

The War in EtaIy.

ARAIsTICE BETWEEN FRANCE ANE AUsTsIA
On the 9Th inst. the Emperor Of the French
telcgraphed to the Empress that an arinittice
had been concluded between the Emperor of
Austria and himself, and that commissioners
had been appointed to settle the clauses a'.d
duration of the armistice.
The Paris AoniteHr, in publishing the
official dispatch, aPPeuds the following re-
marks 1t is necessary that the pubic
should not misunderstood the extent Of the
armistice 1t is limited merely to aels.za-
ton of hostilites between the beligerent
armies, which, though leaving the field open
for negotiations, do not enable Us fer the
present to see how the wax may be terinina-
ted.
The armistice has given rise to variety
of speculatohs in the English papers.
The London Times believe iu peace, and
remarks - Before the truce has ended, the
French army will be refreshed and fciufor-
ced. A feet of eunboats will De ready for
launching upon the lake that surrounds
Mantua. and great army will De ready to
make Its decent upon the shores of Northern
! Italy. Broken and deSpirited as Austria
now is, she is yet better able t. fight at this
moment than she will be at any future time.
| We believe. therefore, in peace, and we
believe that the path to peace will be made
smooth to her, for the Emperor has won the
| advantage which for the moment he proposes
to himself If this war between France aud
| Austria is ended, France comes tremendous
! in power out of the conflict, and Austria and
Europe VIII look on with still Increasing iute-
rest. much meditatipg upoh the future while
| she rests upon her arms.
The London Pest inclines to think that the
proposition fer an armis.ice came from the
moderation of the Emperor Of the French,
and is of opinion that Austria viii consent
to sacrifice her Italian sway, and thus end
| the war.
The Daily Ne,cs says it would be inter
esting to know whether the proposition for au
armistice came from Austria or third power
for no one will suppose that it was made by
France. By whosoe7er, it can have beer
accepted only for the purpose of giving scope
to negotiations.
The Globe interprete the armistice as
prelude to peace.

Attempt upon the Life Of Louis Na-
pole Or,

The Florence correspondent of the Provi-
dence Journal relates the following story:
"a French officer here tells the following
story He says that it has not been printed
in the French journals-and certainly we
have seen no account-but the fact is known
to the army, and the story is true On good
Friday if at no other time of the year, all
good Catholics partake of the Communion
On that day, the Dist of April last, according
to his habit, the Emperor was to receive the
consecrated water in the chap pei of tie Tuill-
cries, Before going to the chapel he was
told that he must not eat the holy particle
that was to be offered him, as it had oeen
prepared with a subtle and malignant poison
for the purpose of destroying his life. The
informant was party to the diabolical Sc
cret, but horror of concience ard reverence
for the Emperor, led him to betray the con-
spiracy. The Emperor kneit at the altar
during the mass, but did not eat the bread.
When the Office was finished, the officiating
priest was invited to the apartment of the
Empress, to partake of a collation., while the
wafer was submitted to chemical exami
nation. 1t was found to contain, as the
informant had said, a concentrated poison
The priest is now in fortress in Algeria -
The officer says that the priest was an instru
ment of the Jesuites; but whether IN Italy
Austria, France or England is not under

tT The Washington correspondent of the
York Courier, in a recent letter to that paper,
says =
1.-The Republicans are gaining confidence in
their ability to elect the Speaker and Clerk
Messrs. Sherman and Corwin OF Ohio, and MIR,
Grow, of Pennsylvania, are the most prominent
candidates for Speaker, and Mr.. VIM Schouler
of Massachusetts, Mr.. Underwood, Wing mem
Der for Kentucky in the last House, and Col.
Forney, of Philadelphia, are the leading compet-
itors for the Clerkship. Mr.. Schouler, from his
ability, his firm attachment to Republican and
American principles, and his popular manners,
perhaps stands best competitor for the nom
ination, but the Clerkship will he made the sub
ject of compromise with reference to the Speak
ership."
The Courier is a rabd Republican paper, and
yet it announces that Mr. Forney stands a fair
chance for the support of the Republican mem
bers of the House of Representatives for the
Clerkship of that body next winter He has not
in truth been recognized as a sincere Democrat
during the last year. Yer, strange to say, men
in this county who live on the patronage of the
Democratic party, have been active recently in
endeavoring to get up clubs for the anti-Demo-
cratic paper which he edits. 1t is very strange
that this should be the case, but 1t is nevertheless
true.
