FROM THE PREFACE.

FROM THE PREFACE.
The Empress josephine was che of the most
remarkable OF all the extraordinary characters
who rose into conspicuous public positions in
Consequence Of the French Revolution. Won>
deriul are the events Of her life With the kind
est and most affectionate of human hearts she
united the sternest principles CT rectyude, and a
comprehensive gen ius.
la political foresight, her superiority to Napoe
leon is now universally recognized. Had he
listened to her adronitions, the fall of his en-
pre- mi ght have been averted. 1t is worthy Of
notica that this political foresight and ability has
been inherited by her descendants, two of whom
Napoleon III. and Pedro II. respectively the
present emperors of France and Brazil are
among the ablest sovereigns now reigning in
world
The events of Josephine's life. and remarkable
traits of character which she displayed amidst
the most amazing vcsstudes of fortune, afford
not only exceeding interesting but highly
instructive lesson to all who read Ter biography.
In this respect her career. taken as o whole, may
challenge comparison with that Of any other his
torical personages in history.
Josedhne constantly looked to the glory Of
France and the fame Of her husband as the two
most desirable objects. When Napoleon desired
to perpetuate his dynasty by second marriage
which might yield him male heir to his throne,
Josephine noby sacrificed her own feelings to
what she was told might eventnate to the advan-
tage of France. In his adversely this true wo-
man forgot all but their happy years of welded
love-remembered not that she had been repu-
dated, but that he was unfortunate.
We have freely drawn upon various authors,
who have recorded anecdotes and traits of Jo-
sephine, as related TO them, with the tender re-
gret OF affection which, too late, recognized her
fnii value, ~ Napoleon himself in his closing
years, and it it hoped that the book will be found
reliable as we'll as entertaining. Full of truth
yet it is the very Romance of Biography,
Copies of either of the above books, with a
handsome gift, worth from 80 cents to 500, will
be sent to any person in the United Sta'es, upon
receipt of SIOO and 81 cents to pay POSTAGE

A YACHT PARTY OVERWHELMED IN THE POTO-
MAC-DR0WNlNG OF TWO LADIES AND A GEN.
TLEMAN.
We learned yesterday, from private source the par
ticulars Of most dep.orable which occurred on
Friday last in Charles county, Maryland the Potomac
river between Cedar Point and the light boat Mr. Grant
Harris most respectable and worthy young gentleman
residing in the vicinity Of the shore sometime since pur-
chased saboat in this city, and kept it on the Potomac
shore for the Of himself and friends Several
weeks ago the family visited by Mr. Morgan Harris
aud his two sisters Ursula and Mamie Harris of Cncn.
dati Ohio all related by family ties and connected by
the warmest friendship.
On Friday morning. between and 10 o'clock, Grant
Harris proposed sail the Potomac and accordingly
embarked with his nephew Morgan Harris and his two
neces Ursula aud Mamie. Grant Harris who is said to
have been very skfu in the management of his yacht
ventured out to the distance Of nearly half mile from
he shore without ballast to where the water is above
80 feet deep and rather wild and treacherous The
ladies' became alarmed and Grant Harris laughngy
proved them. Finally the yacht shipped some water
the sight OF which the ladies up, which unsettled the
boat, and gale striking her, she was capszed.
Now the most painful part Of the recital Grant
Harris elung to his niece Ursula, while Morgan Harris
graped his sister Mamie and all struggled to regain the
boat After going down once, Ursula, who was rather
stout relaxed her hold on Grant Harris and sank follow
cd by Grant and Mamie Morgan Harris alone remaining
above the voracious He clung 10 the boa' and
was rescued by friends from the Shore who were wit
nesses Of the terrible scene.
The bodies had not been found up to the hour Of our
latest information from that quarter saturday
ing though the river being dragged every point
where there existed possibility Of finding the bodies
The deceased we're aged as follows: Grant Harris &c
years; Ursula 81; Mamie 10 Both were very highly
accomplished and much beloved.
The melancholy occurrence has spread gloom over
Charles county such as has not been witnessed for many
years.

old Brown and BrechInrIage.

Touching the report that Breckenridge had signed a
petition Gov. Wise, asking the pardon Of Old John
Brown the Enquirer Of yesterday in reply to our call
for light on the subject, says
Some DAYS ago an esteemed friend in the far South
requested TO obtain for him official reiuiaton Of
the sla-der Accordingly enQuired at the Executive
Department where learned that neither the Govern
or nor the Secretary Of State any employee Of the
Office had ever seen or heard Of any petition whatever
addressed TO the Governor Of Virginia, or any officer
or authority Of this Commonwealth 20 which annex
ed the signature or the uame the mention Of the
name Of the Hon. John c. Breckenridge"
Toe above is explicit enough, far as it goes. So
far as we now recoect there was formal petition to
Gov Wise, from any quarter, for the pardon Of Old
Brown But the Governor did receive numerous letters
from various persons aud from distinguished persons
Fernando Wood among the number we understood
at the time, requesting suggesting to Gov. Wise the
policy Of plrdouiug Ola Brown. There may, therefore,
be no formal petition on file in the Office of Secretary
OF State, signed by NJ Breekinigde asking the Gov
eraor to pardon Cd Brown. But nay not Gov, Wise
himself have received an uno-ill letter on the subject
from NJ. Breckenridge We suggest to our uegbbOr
Jla this matter Is worth looking into te farther
And the better plan, It to "a, for thoroughly
clearing it up, would be for Gov. Wise himself to an

Mr. Breckinridge in regard to pardOning Old Brown

looker-on aud listener here among some eight
hundred persons gathered at this tde-water retreat
am enabled to pick up something Of political import,
which, in these times Of high party excitement may not
be embarrassing.
OF course the large company here halls from almost
cry section Of the Union, and Of course also there is
much expression Of opinion the subject Of politics.
Much diversity Of thinking there Is, necessarily, when
there many parties and SO many candidates in the
field but il much mistaken in my analysis OF
the existing sentiments evidenced by the visitors
here, think may put down sundry points settled
First that as between Breckenridge and Douglas the feel
ing is well-nigh balanced Perhaps Breckenridge has 4
little the advantage but not much Secondly, That be-
tween the rival wings Of the Democracy there the bit
terest and most malignant state Of feeling, and that all
compromise Of the question Thirdly that Bell and
Everett are far stronger than either wing Of the Democ
racy, and every day gaining strength. And lastly-a
most important and cheering facttha the State Of Vir
gina is absolutely certain for the Constitutional Union
ticket.
On the latter point there may be said to be almost
entire unanimty among men Of all parties. have seen
here gentlemen from all parts Of Virginia. and they
press but opnion-that Bell and Everett carry
the State have heard many, very many Democrats 50
say Indeed many Of them give the thing up and say
there is no hope for either Breckenridge or Douglas The
better opinion to be that Douglas will receive from
10000 TO 900 votes. If So the success Of the Bell
and Everett ticket is certain and have not heard
solitary intelligent person different opin-
ion.
There is very large assembage here in it many dis
tngushed politicians and any number Of beautiful
men, all Of whom to be revealing in the recreatons

As matter of general interest to the reader, we pub
ish to-day an address from Gen. Buckley to the Knights
ofthe Golden Circle in Virginia and other Southern States
The object of this knight movement understand it's
to Americane portions of Mexico under invitation from
some Of the Mexican authorities themselves. The order
is very strong numbering some fifty thousand members,
with cash capital of nearly million of dollars, and
with aatering prospects both for more men and more
money.
will be that the Knights ordered to repair to
their emcampment in Texas by the 18th of September
There certainly appears to be but little secresy about
their movements as the Generals communication is open
and above board But as we know little nothing OF
the matter conclude by referring the reader to the ac
dress of General Buckley ITSELF which may perhaps be
source Of entertainment these hot DAYS.
