SO reckless ever Of wind and weather
Let Life and Love be linkd together.
Life has a rich and smiling face,
But Loye is the dimple that gives it grace;
For hand and heart
Once held apart
Life's brightest beams are blanched with sorrow
And roses to-day may be lilies tomorrow.
So reckless ever Of wind and weather
Let Life and Love be iink'd together

NJ. MICHEL CHEyALIER on THE EMPRgoR:s Po-
LIcY.-The members of the Council-G General or the
Herault, few days ago, gave banquet to the
Prefect and VI. Michel Cheyaer, Senator, who
presided, spoke as follows:
"Gentlemen-I propose toast to the Emperor
His Majesty renders easy the task of those who
have annually to propose his health. He does not
resemble the obscure hero of the oiympian games.
whose exploits the poet Sinonides, not knowing
now to praise spoke instead of those of Castor and
Pollux. With him, matter for praise is abundant,
and every year it is largely increased. One year
it il populous and enlightened nation which Ia
freed from an aggression that has lasted for cen-
turies; it is the glorious land which the anrels of
the Scipio5 and Cinclnnatus, of Virgil and Dante
of Raphael and Michael Angelo, still adorn that
year places the trophies of Magenta and solfe-
rino by the side of those of RiFoi Marengo and
Marignan! In another year, the present one, it is
a victory of another kind which has been won;
victory not less brilliant than those of the greatest
captains, but which does not cause the tears OF
mothers to How which, on the contrary, makes
nations rejoice and satisfies alike the philosopher
in his study, the peasant in his cottage, and the
workman in his garret; this new triumph which
in the biography Of the Emperor will so nobly
mark the year lseO, you have alreedy named, for
it it is particularly dear to our hearts-it is the
commercial reform by which the Emperor 90 to
speak, setting along in movement the vessel which
was stationed among the reefs of prohibition has
sent it in full sail into the waters of free trade
He did that when the partisaus of the probibi.

their domination on a rock, and when vulgar OBJ

abandoned themselves to encouragement, for

exception which will be for the department an i'm.

on the one hand improves the high policy of pop1s
lar amelioration and, on the other the object of
which civilization will have much to congratulate
itself-the drawing of waters together and the
consolidation of the peace of the world, That
programme, gentlemen, be assured, will succeed
The Emperor is like one of the fortunate persons
in an eastern tale, who carry with them infalli-
BILE talisInan. He has his wonderful lamp like
Aladdin but no spell and no sorcery can wrest
his peculiar tasman from him, because he carries
it in himself, at the bottom of his heart identified
with his veiy existence, and that talismaR is the
rare virtue which many great men have wanted
moderation in force, and calm in victory. Ipro-s
pose the health of the Emperor! and | Join with
him two other names which are inseparable from
GARIBALDI's PROCLAMATION TO THE NEAPoLErASs.
-Garibaldi has addressed the following proclama-
ton to the people of the Neapolitan continent:
The opposition of the strangers interested in
our humiliation and internal factions having inl=
peded Italy from constituting herself.
To-day it seems, Providence has put an end to
SO much misfortune. The unanmity of all the pro.
vinces, and the victory which is smiling every
where on the sons Of liberty, are proofs that the
evil times of this land of genius draw towards their
| end.
| "a step still remains, and that step do not
| fear. If we compare the small means which led d
handful of brave men to these straits with the
great means which wescan dispose Of now, every
one can see that the enterprise is NOT difficult.
But wish nevertheless, to avoid bloodshed
among Italians and therefore turn to you, sons of
tie Neapoiitau continent.
81 have seen that you are brave, and do not
wish to see it again. Our blood we will shed to-
gethsr on the corpses of the enemies of Italy, but
between us let there be peace.
"Accept that right hand which has never served
tyrant, but which has been hardened in the ser
vice of the people. ask you to help to constitute
Italy without the loss of her sons, and with yon
will serve her or die for her. g. GARIBALDE.a
