RAYMOND AND THE PARIS CoNsuLsHrP-The
"little villain" of the Times, with his soft step
and smooth tongue, speaking in the language
most familiar to him, says that the HERALD
'lies' when it states that he was an applicant
for the consulship to Paris, and declares that
he never asked any person for that position. 1t
may be, after all, that we are in an error about
this consulship; for we know that when FIRE.
mont was running for the Presidency Greeley
had the promise of the Postmaster Generalship
in the Cabinet, and Raymond The mission to
France. We are satisfied that his aspirations
upon the advent Of Lincoln into power were
fully equal to his desires four years ago. We
are therefore under the impression that it was
the mission to France, instead Of the consul
ship, which the failure to obtain has caused so
many undermined attacks upon the administra-
lion.

THE NEWS.

The Jura, from Liverpool the oath and London
derry the 25th utimo reached Father Point yester-
day on her way to Quebec. Her news is one day
later than that brought by the City Of New York.
In the Liverpool cotton market the sales of the
week footed up LAG 900 bales, and the advance
during the seven days was from threefourths of q
penny to one penny. 1t was estimated that there
were GA 900 bales in port. Breadstuffs were de-
Ginning. Consols closed in London, on the 25th
of October, at s24 921s for money.
The Paris Monitew publishes very significant
warning to the religious societies, in the shape of
caution addressed TO the ladies of the Saint Unione
at Douai, who, the Official print states have abet

A Niger IN THE FENcE.-The editor of our
quadrilateral contemporary, the Times, appears
to be over anxious to go to the Legislature.
What can be the cause of all this? Besides the
gridiron legislation that we have shown he
must be committed to, his sneers at the Pre-
sident and attack upon the loyalty of the Pre-
sident's family render it absolutely certain
that he desires to 60 to Albany for the purpose
of reviving the slavery agitation, which he orr
ginally took such an active part in, in hopes Of
embarrassing the administration in its great
and important duty of restoring the Union to
its original basis. In other words, he desires q
legislative endorsement Of his emancipation
and niger policy. But, really, have we not
had quite enough of this everlasting niggere
The niger has been dragged into everything
until it has finally brought about this monster
rebellion; and we think that it is about time
all niger agitators were kept out of tho
Legislature. But Raymond desires to embar-
rass the administration in every way that he
can, and the revival of the slavery question at
Albany is one of the modes for doing it, and
this is the niger in the fence.
