During the revolutionary war. Gen.
Lafayette being in Baltimore, was invit-
ed to ball. He went as requested, lut
instead of joining in the amusement, as
might have been expected of young
Frenchman of twenty two, he addressed
the ladies thus: "Ladies, you are very
handsome; you dance very prettily; your
ballis very fine-but my soldiers have
no shirts!" This was irresistible. The
ball ceased the ladies went home and
went to work, and the next day a large
number of shirts were ready for the gal
lant defenders of their country.

question of the present day. Rome, Venice,
Hungary, Poland, the Duchies, and even inn
portant domestic questions, have been only of
secondary Importance since the intelligence has
arrived of civil war having broken out in the
United States. The most sanguine hopes of
compromise being practicable were entertained
by the numerous colony of Americans staying
At Paris. The concession of the right Of sece.

from the Northern States; but the aggressive
conduct i'll which the former has persisted to-
