SIR Il had the honor to receive this day, by the
hands of the Baron de Therry your dispatch Of the
25th April, from Paris, in which you acknowledge
mine of the 9th of last January and refer private
note (which I have never received) acknowledging
mine of the Dist October and of the 7th November.
In your said dispatch, while regretting the illness Of
Mr. Writ you approve of his provisional delegation of
his duties to the Baron de Thierry inform me that
the examination Of the draft of new Treaty, prepared
by YOU differing in respects Of little importance,
from the Treaties concluded with Great Britain and the
United States, had been put off until after the arrival
in Paris of Mr.. Robert Gould, whose appearance at
Antwerp you had announced, in the character of
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentary of
the King Of the Sandwich Islands; and add that the
intentions of the Prince President of the French Re-
public were very benevolent towards this Kingdom.
1t was in the entire confidence of the King in
that generous and benevolent disposition, that it pleased
His Majesty refer, through you, to the decision of
the Prince President, all important questions (here
speak in the in which they understood, and
referred by this Government) that had been raised
with this Government, by agents that had been ap-
pointed under former regime, and before the Prince
President has made the decision expected of him, any
such mission, which it appears that Mr.. Robert Gould
has arrogated to himself would be not only premature

Compa risom of Mcclellan and Beauregard.
II. y. W TLLIE,
Minister of Foreign Relations.

COmPa rison of Mcclellan and Beauregard.
When had the pleasure of conversing with Gen.
Mcclellan for the first time, he asked me several
questions, with evident interest and friendly curl
Osity-not unusual on the part of Generals in re-
ference to their anita tagonists-respecting General
Beauregard. In his case there was all the more
reason for such inquiries, in the fact that they
were old sellOw-students aud classmates. To my
mind there is something of resemblance between
the men, Both are below the middle height thew
are both squarely built, and famed for muscular
power since their college days. Beauresard, in
deed, is lean and thin-ribbed McClelland is full
and round, with Napoleonic tendency to ern6ou-
point, subdued by incessant exercise. Beauregard
sleeps little MeClelans temperament requires a
full share of rest; both are spare and Spartan in
diet. studious, quiet. Beauregard is rather sat-
urnine, and il not meanchOlc, is of grim gayety;
Mcclellan is genial even in his reserve. The densi-
ty of the hair, the squareness of the jaw, the firm
ness and regularity of the teeth and the outlines
of the features are points of similarity in both,
which would be more striking if Beauregard were
not of the true Louisiana Creole tint while McCleI-
len is fair-cOmpl plexioned. Beauregard has dark
dull, students eye, the dulness of which arises,
however, from its formation, for it is full of fire,
and its glsnces are quick and searching. MeClel-
Ian has deep, clear eye, into which you can look
Slr and deep, while you feel it searches far and
deep into you. Beauregard has something of pre-
tension IN his manner-nOt hateur, but folding
armed, neditatve sort of air, which seems to say:
% Don't disturb me; I'm thinking of military
movements Mcclellan seems to be always at
leisure but you feel, at the time, you ought
not to intrude too much upon him, even when you
seek in vain for the grounds of that impression in
anything that he is doing or saying. Beauregard
is more subtle, crafty and astute Mcclellan is
more comprehensive, more learned, more impress
siOnable. Beauregard is a thorough soldier:
Mcclellan may prove he is great general. The
former only looks to military consequences, and
disregards popular manifestations the latter re-
spects the opinions of the outer world. and sees
political well military results in what he
ders. They are both the creatures of accident so
far as their present positions are concerned. It
remains to be seen if either can control the cur
rent of events, and if in either the artillery man
or the cavalry officer of the old United States
army there is the stuff around which history is
moulded, such that Of which the artleryman
of Brienne the leader of the Ironsdes was made.

MUGGISs AND THE MUGGNsERs--A festive party
of young fellows whiIed away tine damp hours Of
Friday evening in playing the classic game of
muggins in uptown store. The night waned
away to the small hours, when it was suggested
that they ''play for something" This generally
means lager, cigars. tods, oysters, or matters of
that kind. But as it happened all the saloons and
such like sc dens of infamy " were closed, they had
to make the best of what forfeits were laying
around loose. Mo spied box of McLean's
bilious pills, and proposed that every time man
lost game he should take pill. The novelty
and fun of the idea took with the rest, and they
went on playing with renewed interest. c.
was the first loser and he bolted of the globu-
lar denominations like a little man. G.'s turn
came next, and he swallowed the penalty without
winking; and 50 the game went on. There were
twenty-five pills in the box, and three of them were
considered dose for all medicinal purposes. Nc
swallowed nine of them, G. eight more, @. gulped
down six, j. took the remainder, while jerks got
of scot free. The game was hastily terminated at

TIME TABLE

Ii will be seen that the sub
scription price of the Journal
has been raised to 81 80 per copy.
This change is perfectly una
voidable under the circumstances.
There are two reasons for 1t. In
the first place the price never
should have been put below ST.
90. The labor and expense OF
getting out a county paper is
such that i cannot be done prop
erly below that price. Secondly:
We nave now TO pay just about
one hundred per cent more for
paper and other printing materi-
ais than they could be bought at
three months ago. We do not
look for the present prices to
continue, but have no expecta-
ton OF ever reducing the price
OF the journal from tle present
rates, but will enlarge and inn
prove it as soon as we can.

WHISKY AND NEWSPAPERS.

A glass of whisky is manafac-
tured from perhaps a dozen grains
Of corn, the value of which is too
small to be estimated. A pint
of this mixture sells for one shlil-
ing, and, if Of a good brand, is
considered we'll worth the money.
1t is drank In a minute or two.
1t fires the brain, sharpens the ap-
petite, deranges and weakens the
physical system. On the same
sideboard upon which this deli
cious beverage is served lies a
newspaper. 1t is covered with
half a million of types-it brings
intelligence from the four quar-
tiers of the globe. The newspa-
per costs less than the glass OF
grog. the juice OF a few grains OF
corn; but 1t Is no less strange
than true that there is large por-
ton OF the community who think
corn-juice cheap and the newspa
per dear!--Scientitic American.

PURsLEy aged SO years and 10

Father Pursley was born in
Westmoreland county, Virginia,
the county in which GEoRG E
WASHINGTON was born. He en-
tered the active militia and serv-
ed about one year In the last
century; again, when our coun-
try was invaded by a foreign foe,
in 1912, he rallied to the rescue
of tue American Flag, serving
abuut IL months in the army.
In the year 1880 he removed
20 this State and for 80 years
has been a citizen of this county
Being comparatively poor and
having large family he had to
contend with many of the diff
culties incident to pioneer life,
amidst all of which he has sus.
tanned himself as an honorable
and upright man in all of his
dealings, being kind and obi.
ging in his disposition he was OF
consequence a good and agreea.
BILE neighbor, and although age
had clrcumscribed his influence
for the last few years, he will be
very much missed by disconso-
late widow and a large family oil
children and grand children, as
we'll as by many near neighbors
and friends.
Since the commencement vi
our present national difficulties
two of his sons, fred with the
Patriotism that burned in a
Fathers bosom, rallied to our
country's rescue, both of whom
have fallen in the service.
Although Father Pursley, t.
my knowledge, never made a
public profession of religion,
conscious of his approaching
dissolution, he has :or some
time manifested deep concern
for his SOULS salvation, and from
an intimate acquaintance with
him in his last illness, We hum
bly, trust that he rests from his
labors in the blessed prospect OF
