DISPATCHES FROM OUR DIPLOMATS IN
EUROPE The following is telegraphed from
Washington to the New York Herald:
dispatches have been received at the
State Department, brought by the Asia,
from our Ministers at London, France and
Spain. Mr.. Dallas states that great activ-
ity prevails in England throughout all the
various departments, and warlike prepara-
tons of immense magnitude are being pros
ecuted with vigor and urgency. Never,
he says, were such preparations made by
any power as in now going on. Everything
that can float upon water is undergoing re
pair, and will soon be in readiness for &C
tive service Unparalleled activity pre-
walls in all the British dock yards; indeed,
it is the opinion of leading statesmen that,
should the war continue, England will not
long remain neutral. She fears France.
and looks upon the Emperor with Jealous
eye.
Mr.. Mason says that the Emperor has a
stronger hold upon the affections of the peo-
pie of France than he ever had before, and
they evince determination to stand by
him at all hazards, and prosecute the war
to the bitter end.
Mr.. Preston states that considerable feel
ing was manifested at Madrid, growing
out of the belligerent aspect of affairs
throughout Europe. The sympathies of
the people were with Sardinia, and the
Emperor's course meets the hearty appro-
val Of the people"

TRANSPORT OF TRoops BY FRAScE.-a
correspondent of the New York CONNER
cial Advertiser writing from Genoa, under
date Of May II, says;
1t is truly astonishing to witness the celeri-
ty with which the French transport their
troops and munitions of war; Four steam
ships arrived at Genoa in the morning at
10 o'clock with 1000 men, 600 horses,
and 70 pieces of artillery, and by O'Clock
in the afternoon they were off again to
Toulon tor another like freight. This is
only small specimen of what Louis Napol-
con has been doing The Englishmen here
are amazed at all this. and we'll they may
be for if Napoleon can in forty hours plant
60 600 men, and artillery in proportion, in
Sardinia, how long would it take him to
place 100, 900 men ON the shores of Eng
land, with navy quite as efficient as that
of Great Britain to protect them?

WHAT ARE CoNsoLs MANY who read
the accounts of the European money mar
kets no doubt desire to know what ''consols"
are They are three per cent. English
stock, which had its origin in an act Of the
British Parliament, consolidating (hence
the name) several separate government
stocks into one general stock, called in the
act Consolidated Annuities," and COM

period only one loan has been raised, that

off. The total at the present time, is a.
bout three hundred and seventy-fve mil

immense number Of its holders, is more SEN
stive to financial revulsions than any other,
and is therefore favorite stock for the op-
erations Of spectators and jobbers.

AFFRAy AT TIE University A person.
al difficulty occurred at the University this
morning between two students, Charles Gu
Chef, Of North Carolina, and j. NJ. Bent
ley, of Alabama, which may prove fatal to
last named. We have not heard both sides
Of the affair. and cannot, therefore, give
very reliable statement. 1t seems howev-
er, that Bentley and Guchet had difficulty
yesterday evening, and as they met this
morning it was renewed, Bentley striking
at Guchet, and the latter drawing pistol
and shooting Bentley through the arm and
into the breast. The extent of the damage
has not been ascertaiued, as the ball has not
yet been found. Guchet was promptly ar
rested and is now before magistrate for ex-
animation = Virginia Aduocate.

REPATRIATION DEMANDED OF MEXICO We
have already stated that Mr.. McLane had
requested Consul Black, now holding an ex-
equator from Juarez, to remain at the city
of Mexico, Notwithstanding the withdrawal
of his cxequator by the Mramon Govern
ment. We now learn that he has since in
structed the Consul to demand explanation
tor the assassination Of American citizens at
Iacubaya, but that Miramon replied that,
inasmuch as he (Black) was no logger reccg-
nlzed as the Consular Agent of the United
States at Mexico, moreover, as Mr.. McLane
had seen fit to recognize the Opposition
Government, he could have no communica-
ton with him. The ConsuPs letter was
therefore returned unopened.-N 0. Plea

EH- The late flood of the Mississippi and
Yazoo river has been almost unexampled in
the damage it has done to the cotton plan
ters. Many thousand Of acres of the best
cotton lands are overflowed and rendered
unproductive during the present season, in
Guiding the famous Deer Greek Bottoms,
noted for their fertility. The fine planta-
ton Of Senator Douglas, near the bayou, is
wholly inundated. This event, doubtless,
it.was, which called the Senator to New Or
cans, in the neighborhood Of which city he
is now stopping.

our circulars, and have often thought it
strange that we have not heard from you.
However, our object in writing this time is
to offer you the preference to purchase very
finely arranged package of twenty-six tick
cts in the Grand Consolidated Lottery, Glass
II, drawing May 21st- This package gives
you the advantage of $50. so worth of tick
cts for the cost Of only $40. The same has
from its repeated success, won the title of
the ''lucky package" and to convince you Of
our confidence in its success, we will prom
Use to send you another package free Of
charge if the first fails to draw a three num-
Der prize, the lowest being $3.50. See full
scheme within. We make this offer in good
faith, with an effort to sell you the capital
$40, 900, and we hope you will accept it,
Enclose US $40, and the package will be
sent by return mail, the result Of which, we
confidently think, will be satisfactory to
YOU. Yours truly.

while attempting to get up he said, I'm a

up than he was down again, and this time
whilst arising he said I'm Christian, Pm

Of the Captain, and he asked Jack for ex-

GLOVE ME LITTLE, LOVE ME- LONG,

ORIGINALLY PRINTED IN l569-7O.
Love me little, love me long;
Is the burden of my song;
Love that is too hot and strong
Burneth soon to waste.
Still, would not have thee cold,
Not too backward nor too bold
Love that lasteth till It's old
Fadeth not in haste.
Love me little, love me long
Is the burden Of my song.
If thou lowest me too mnch,
1t will not prove as true as touch /;
Love little, more than such,
For fear the end.
l am with little well content,
And little from thee sent,
Is enough, with true intent.
To be a steadfast friend.
Love me little, love me long, &C..
Say thou lov'st me while thou live,
to thee my love will give,
Never dreaming to deceive
While that life endures
Nay, and after death, in sooth,
I to thee will keep my truth,
AS now, when in my May Of youth,
This my love assures.
Love me little, love me long, SC.
Constant love is moderate ever,
And it will through live persevere;
Give me that, with true endeayor,
will it restore.
A suit of durance let it be,
For all weathers; that for me,
For the land, or for the sea,
Lasting evermore.
Love me little, love me long, &c.
Winters cold, or summers heat,
Autumn's tempest on it beat,
It can never know defeat,
Never can rebel.
Such the love that I would gain,
Such the love tell the plain,
Thou must give, or WOO in vain;
So to thee farewell.
Love me little, love me long,
Is the burden of my song.
