TUESDAY MORNING. Jan

THE MosT ExrDAvAoANr v MAN
THE Wos1D.--The Empress Of France l.
probably the most extragagsat woman
living. Nor is this all; she has been
the cause ofrninous exiravagance in the
families Of her husbands subjects and in
all countries where the costly fashions
she has set have found favor. NJ. Fould,
the Emperor's Minister Of Finance
threatens TO resign his Office unless her
enormous drafts upon the treasury are
curtailed So costly has she made the
toilette In Paris, that fashionable ladies
are utterly unable TO settle their bill for
dress, and it is stated by the English
press that il is as much as many of them
can do TO pay the interest on the large
debts which following the imperial
modes has caused them TO incur. The
world owes crinoline to the fair Eugenie;
and the rougher half Of its civilized pop
ulation does not feel, by any manner OF
means, grateful to her for the introduc-
tion of tho articles She has made her
apartments in the the Tuileries as mag
nificent as the palaces one reads about
in the oriental fables. @ sas

surrounded herself with these luxurie

ally in rare laces and all the must expen
sive articles of female costume. beside
subscribing unheard Of sums in aid o
certain vast political schemes, for she I
withal an intriguing politician. Th
Empress is thirty six years of age, ant
therefore old enough TO have learne

EmanoipatiOn Act for Missouri.

Emancipation Act for Missouri.
In the proceedings Of the House Of
Representatives, on the 9th inst, we find
the following action on the bill TO aid
Missouri to abolish slavery:
Mr.. Noel of Mo-, from the Committee
on Emancipation, reported bill to aid
Missouri in occurring the aboIishment OF
slavery therein. The bill provides for
the issue Of $10,000OO0, thirty years
bonds, payable to loyal owners, the Coy
ernment p edging itself 70 the deportation
OF the freed men.
Mr.. Vallandigham objected TO the con-
sideratiOn of the bill for reasons stated,
but the Speaker overrued the objection.
He madehis decision in accordance with
that heretofore appl led to the French
| spoilation.
Mr. Clements, of Tenn, was not aware
that this bill would be reported, and as
a member of the special committee ON
emancipation he objected 10 it. Last
session il was proposed TO appropriate
SlS,000,000 TO Virginia, Mary land, Mis-.
souri,, and Delaware. This was on ma
tional basis, where as this bill is Of sec
tional character, referring as it did tC
only one State. u
Mr. Wickhfe had seen it stated il
public prints that some time after the
issue of the proclamation information
had been received by the President from
intelligent, whole-sOuled Union men
which satisfied him that great anC
powerful change had taken place in favo
Of this miserable abolition scheme; b,
felt il to be his duty and privilege t
state on the floor, in the face of Heaven
ia the presence of Congress. and in tn,
hearing of the nation, that there was not
one man in thirty in Kentucky. who wa,
in favor of the proclamation he sale
this again and again, whether il be by
fraud, purchase, or otherwise, m
Mr.. Noel said the people Of Missouri
had said they would abolish slavery
In reply to Mr.. Clements, Mr.. Noel
remarked that the people of Tennessee
had no regular State Government, anC
hence could not act upon and accept sucl
proposition. II was expecting to-
much TO hang all the Border Slave State
upon this bill. Commerce the work wit
Missouri, and when the proper time shal
arrive, the benefits might be extended
Mr.. Holman moved TO lay the bill o.
the table, which was agreed TO by
vote of AZ TO 10. b.
Mr. Elliott moved TO exclude from tn
benefits of the act all those who wilfull'
refuse TO take the oath. Adopted, Z
TO 20.
Mr.. Pendleton moved 20 table the bill
which was negatiyed, A. TO 72.
Mr.. Cravens moved 10 adjourn. Mega

The bill then passed by a vote of Z

Embalming the Dead "A Process
Practicable to ALI.

The modern processes by which the
bodies of officers and soldiers of the
army have been embalmed and restored
TO their friends is not the least of the
blessings which science has bestowed
upon the world since the beginning of
the war. The expense Of this process, in
most cases, places its advantages beyond
the reach of people of moderate means.
Those who have adopted the business as
profession, are in some cases, eXtortion-
Gus in their charges, particularly where
officers are the subjects; and the whole
matter is surrounded by professional Sc
crecy impenetrable to persons of unsci-
entillc tastes.
A matter of so great general utility
and importance should not be monopo-
lized or turned wholly to individual
emolument. may not be out of place
TO give, in this connection, simple reci-
pc by which any physician or surgeon
of ordinary capacity can embalm the
dead, and preserve them from decompo-
sition or putrefaction for length of time
20 answer ali practical requirements.
/ The following was handed TO me shortly
after the battle Of Antietam, by the Med
I ical Director of the Ninth Army Corps:
! The liquid chloride of zinc injected
\ into the cerebral Or femoral artery, will
preserve bodies from decomposition or
pu,reiaction for great length of time.
The mode of obtaining this liquid is
20 take (say) one quart Of hydrochloric
acid iu an earihen vessel, and add small
pieces OF zinc until reaction ceases,
The liquid may be diluted in the pro
portion Of one part to four OF water
From one quart to three pints Of this dilu-
tion chloride Of zInc will be sufficient ID
effect the purpose desired.
