Each relative has its anteeedent, and j. would
most certainly be unfair to make Mr Mallory
the Atlas" who must needs sustain the
- world" OF evil which eTushes the Confederscy
At this early period Of It's history.
During the session of Congress which MSS
just terminated, bills were passed, by both the
Senate and House Of Representatives, involv-
ing the most important interests Of the navy
aud Of our cOsst and inland defenses. So far
IS our knowledge extends, not one Of them
was signed - the President, excepting, how
ever the appropriation bin Tor the support Of
the silimpOrtsus Secretary Of the Navy and
his clerks. One bill, Of very great importance,
was sent 70 Congress with veto within i've
minutes Of the sime of its sdjJurnmeut, when
there was eTidsnuy no TINS 90 consider the
matter, or tho reasons for the veto.
A bill also passed both houses so modifying
the law in r9latiOn to The Issues Of letters OF
naTque and rsprissl, ss to allow the issue Of
those letters before the procurement Of = vessel
or TO have commissions filed ia foreign ports,
and thus modifying, in some degree, the siTin-
gent guards thrown around pravateering This
modification was necessary, in couSe queace
! Of the impOssibility OF procuring suitable
vessels with which 70 undertake the haz-
Erdous enterprise Of PTiYateeTing. This bill
was quietly pocketed by the President

ecute summary rstribUGOn on the enemy in the
sensitive point Of an attack upon their com
merce. But the foot Of Presidential frmness
was put Upoa the msssuTe, and its life crushsd
out. Bat this governmental opposition to pri-
watering did not end here. Notwithstanding
the severe restrictions piae5d upon the law, Ger
tam parties procured a vessel and made pTepa-
rations to run the blockade ss privatesrs. No
sooner, however, was this known, than by gov
srnmens order, the vessel was seized and appTo-
pristsd 70 other uses Thus plainly striking q
blow atthe whole system OF priVateering. L. is
seid that the President bss expressed the opin-
ion that naval operations, on an extended scale,
viii detraet from the efficiency Of the land force,
and for that reason.
Hence it msy be surmissd why N4r. Mallory

AN UNFORTUNATE ACTREss.-Mme. Defrey-
soles, well known as clever actress, while
performing at the principal theatre in Rome,
recently, was suddenly seized with madness.
She had played the night before in the Ties
lament de Cesar Girodot," and was greatly
applauded. Some time after her return home,
about two O'Clock in the morning, she went
down stairs, and, proceeding to the post of
the suspension-bridge, asked for medical aid,
saying that she felt ill. The officer de saute
on service, perceived at once that her mind
was wave1ing, and had her taken home. The
unfortunate lady then barricaded herself in
her apartment, and opening the window she
spent her time in alternately approaching it
and drawing back, so that several persons of
the neighborhood who had collected on the
news of her madness, were afraid she would
precipitate herself on the pavement from the
third story. AT last the police being in
formed of what was going on, ordered car
riage to be brought, and succeeded in carry
ing her off to a lunatc asylum. Her fixed
idea, it appears, was that she was to be pois-
oned by the smell of flowers, and all her eff
forts were made guard against such death,
but what determined her sudden attack of
madness is not known.

The CLEMENCY OF GEFFRARD.-Geftrard,
the president of Hayti, is known TOR his
clemency. But this clemency is not the care
less act of a man with whom everything has
gone well. On the contrary, Getfrard's heart
has been wrung by the keenest woes that can
try man, in direct connection with the exer-
cises of his power. His only son, youth of
eighteen, died of exhaustion and fatigue,
brought on by his exertions in that blessed
and well-nigh bloodless revolution which car
ried his father to the presidency. His eldest
daughter died in childbirth from the anxiety
for her father. His youngest daughter became
the victim of one of the most dastardy
murders recorded in history. Yet nothiug of
all this has ayailed to sour or freeze the
mans long-sutfering generosity. general
officer in attendance upon him resolved to
murder him, and Geffrard knew of it. TAX
ing with him the would-be assassin, he went
to the cemetery, at the gate of which he left
two 'guides," who had accompanied him, and
proceeded to his sons grave. Having reached
it, he turned to his companion and said. 81
know you carry pistols to shoot me on the
first opportunity. Do it here. Let me fall
on the grave of my son. Do you hesitate?"
he proceeded, after moment; ''take my pis-
tolls if your own fail you" The spirit of the
assassin was disarmed; he was forgiven, and
retained his rank.
