A Singular yet Grave Allegation.

The Boston Liberator contains an article
translated for that paper l;om the Pioaier of
Oct. 14th, which says:
Mr.. Seward for whom Dir. Lincoln is responsibility
at the time when the French invasion of Mexico was
in process, entrusted TO the French Anbas Mcr
cier from the archives in Washington all the plans
and maps eft the campaign OF Gen. Scott, in order to
facilitate for the invading army the work of staying
the republic
What is the character of the PIONEER, or
where it is published, or in what interest en-
listed we know not. The authority required
to justify such an allegation against the Amer
lean Premier should be of no doubtful char
acter, and in the absence of testimony or facts
of the most substantial character we shall take
the liberty simply to disbelieve it, and to re-
gard it as the offspring of ill-will against the
leading member of Mr.. Lincoln's cabinet
Such an act would be unfriendy toward a
peaceful neishbor, and gross violation Of
national faith and good fellowship towards a
nation with which We. are on friendly terms
as gross an act at any rate as many of those
in England in relation TO which We have made
loud and bitter complaints.

Carriage ManufacturinY.

There are but few of our readers aware of
the extent to which carriage and sleigh manu.
featuring Is carried on in this city. Seeing
large sign, in our perambulations few days
since, on which was very plainly and neatly
painted &C. p. Kimbals Carriage Fac
tory" We just dropped in for the purpose of
gratifying our curiosity and exercising our
Yankee propensity. We soon had the pleas
ure OF meeting the proprietor who very blndy
Showed us around" and seemed very ready
to answer any reasonable question: relating
to his business.
As the result of our enquiries, we learned
that Mr.. J. NJ. Kimball who is now located on
Congress street, removed to this city from
Bridgton about eleven years ago, and that
Charles P. Kimball Esq. es,ne here from Nor
way the next year. At that time there we're
but very few carriages manufactured in the
city. Messrs. Head & Jewell had a repository
where they sold from $4,000 to $4,000 worth
Of n. H. carriages year.
5 Mr.. Charles p. Kimball sold carriages for a
year or two, when he commenced the manu-
factory on a small scale, the business constant
ly increasing until demand was found for his
carriages and sleighs in every section of this
country, occasionally receiving an order from
across the Atlantic.
The mandatory Of c. p. Kimball ESQ.,, is
situated on Preble street, a short distance
from Congress street. The buildings occupy
space 70 feet by 1870, and SO connected as to
favor the transmission of the work from one
department to the other with the least possible
labor. Between thirty and forty men are reg
ularly employed at this establishment, who
are, as any one can judge at sight, thoroughly
acquainted with their several departments.
Much care has been exercised In the selec-
ton of men of skill, Intelligence and reliabili-
ty, and we should judge Mr.. Kimball had been
very fortunate in these particulars.
The establishment of Mr.. James NJ. KimbaIl
Is on Congress street, just above the Preble
House. He has recently taken into co-part-
nership with himself Mr.. j. c. Kimball, a
brother, and theylintend to enlarge and extend
their business. They now give employment
TO about the same number of hands as Charles
p. and do about the same amount and kind OF
business, and employ the same class of help.
The Messrs. Kimball have repository in
Minot's new building, No. no Sudbury street,
Boston, 120 feet by so, where they have two
agents constantly employed in selling their
carriages and sleighs. There is no carriage
establishment in New England that has Sc
cured wider and more justly merited repu-
tation than the Messrs. Kimballs. Their car.
riages are custom made, of the very best ma
terial that can be obtained and by the best
workmen. Every carriage and sleigh is war.
ranted to give satisfaction. We did not carry
our inquisitiveness so far as to examine theil
books, but establishments so well conducted
as are the Messrs. Kimballs, with seventy OIL
eighty men employed, must turn out largs
humber OF carriages and sleighs each year, fol

VERY DEMOCRATIC. - The Manchester
Union Democrat suffers a correspondent to re-
proach Senator Wilson of Massachusetts,
for his humble origin. The story of the rise
and progress of Henry Wilson is one in which
thousands of youth, without early advantages,
may take courage and press on with the full
assurance of final success. Young Wilson
set his mark high, and reached it. When a
youth he formed the purpose to obtain at least
good English education. To succeed in his
object he on time resolved to make sixty
pairs of shoes, without sleeping until his task
was accomplished. To the execution of that
purpose he pressed on until the forty-ninth
pair was upon his lap, and then fell asleep
through sheer exhaustion. The man who ac-
complished SO much of a rash resolve, and be-
came Senator in Congress through the eff
forts of an indomitable will, can afford to en-
counter the reproach of as many correspond
ents OF the Union Democrat as can stand in
line from Concord to Manchester. IN III.

PUNCTUALITY.-In whatever family you
happen to be, at home or abroad, ascertain the
exact time for breakfast, dinner and supper,
and be on the spot at the moment, with your
hand on the back of your chair, ready TO sit
down. you are attending school, be sure to
be there at least three minutes before the time.
II you have a business appointment, don't fail
to meet it at the exact moment. Business at
the Royal Exchange, in London, commences
at IL O'Clock, NJ. The moment the great bell
on the Cathedral near by has struck its last
stroke, the door is closed. Ifyou are one half
minute behind the time, you are not admitted
If you are within, you can come out when you
please; but if yon are outside when the great
clock has given its last stroke, there is no ad-
mittance for you. 10 the writer such an ar
rangement is sublimely beautiful. Be pune
tual, always and everywhere. Cultivate the
habit. You have no right to waste the time
of other people any more than your own. The
writer will be an old man If he should live long
enough; but he has already lost, as he believes
not less than whole year of his short life,
waiting for other people. There is class of
people in every community who are uniformly
behind the time, and they are doing more mis-
chief than they are aware of. The only apol-
ogy for them which the writer can think of is,
that they were born fifteen or twenty minutes
behind the time, and have never been able to
'catch up"-and the probability is they never
will. The whole universe has got the start of
them, and time and tide wait for neither man,
woman nor child. THAT'S So.'

BOGUS DIsPArcHEs.-An Extra from the
Courier Office Saturday evening, contained a
Especial dispatch to the Evening Courier
stating that Burnside had captured 5000 pris-
oners and destroyed foundry and large
number of railroad cars near Lynchburg.-
Also, that Gen. Warren's corps had taken 1900
prisoner near Madison Court House.
Our dispatches last night make no mention
of either of the above affairs, and therefore,
We conclude there was no foundation for the
report. F r-f s 800

a mistake. True, she was born in Mentz,
France, but her father is an Italian and her

Jean Paul ranks high among German wri-

this country his style is not so agreeable to
the American reader, as that oil some of our
own countrymen. There is much that is OBJ
scure about his writings, at least they are not
characterized by that clearness and simplicity
of thought that lghtens the labor of reading
American works. These are beautifully prin-
ted volumes and will be acceptable to the
lovers of German literature.

He was born July ., 1928, and died July. 8,
