GRAND CIVIC & MILITARY BALL.

The people of Gold Hill, Virginia, Silver and
Dayton, should not forget that on Friday even
ing next, Grand Civic and Military Ball will
come off at the Gold Hill Theatre-the proceeds
of which will be donated to the First Regiment
Infantry Volunteers. Preparations are making
:or spleadd party-and as no other Ball is
likely to take place before the 4th OF July, the
la,ies and gentlemen in this vicinity who delight
in the "mazes OF the dance" should not over
look this opportunity. Mr.. Pharrer, the proprle-
tor of the Theater is around, and quite active in
his arrangements TO afford satisfaction to all who
may attend the Ball The objects, too, for which
the party will be given, are commendable. Quite
a number of the military will be present

ing success. Without pang of regret he
bids an official but affectionate adieu to the
gentlemanly substitute brokers, who al

who would like to look over the list to see

plication of diseases, who swear they are
tough enough to stand marching and fight

the rural districts who have the rheumatism
very bad in wet weather, and 'have never
been welr since the war broke out; to the
anxious parties who have for the past three
or four weeks waylaid him in the streets
and opened their attacks with dreadful
series of 's'posens;' to the aliens from Ire

The Great Napoleon on the Gem
sOrship of the Press. l usi

The following characteristic letter occurs
in the last volume of the "Napoleon Cor
respondence." 1t is In striking contrast with
the course of the authorities at Washington.
With all the power that absolute rule could
give-unfettered by Constitution or law-at
once the glory and the ideal of the French
people, the Emperor Napoleon dare not
hazard his popularity with the French ma
ton by censorship ofthe press. Years after,
an attempt to restrict Its freedom calIsed
Louis Philippe to lose his crown, and to
be driven from the land OF his birth rs an
exile.
But the President of the United States has
no such fears. Although the Constitution
has thrown its guarantees around the free
dom of the press-although 1t is one OF the
main pillars of Republican Government,
yet it is not so treated by the authorities
at Washington. Mr.. Lincoln, it appears,
held it as a gift to be taken back at any
moment. Newspapers are suppressed at
pleasure, and those who do the work of
suppression claim exemption because the
President ordered it. Books are suppressed
! and their authors and publishers are i'm
prisoned-the dispatches Of the telegraph
seized-its censors at Washington allow
dispatches to the press to be publish
ed in certain localities and in papers
friendly to the Administration, which are
declared to be contraband to other papers
and in other localities, and these usurpa-
tions of power are submitted to by q peo-
pie once deemed the most jealous on earth
| of their liberties. The letter of Napoleon
to M. Fouche, his minister, is as follows:
"M. Fouche: / read in The Journal de
L'Empire of the 9th instant that at the end
of comedy, by Colin d 'Harleville, this note
occurs:
"sSeen and permitted the printing and
sale, pursuant to the decision of his Excel
lency, the Minister of General Police Sena-
tor. Dated 9th of this month. By order of
| his EXcellency, =. LAGARDE,
Chief of the Division of the Liberty of the
Press
81 am astonished at these new forms,
which the law only could authorize. If 1t
were proper to establish censorship, it
could not be established without my per-
| mission. When my will is that the censor
ship shall not exist, have right to be
surprised at seeing in my ,empire forms
which may be good at Vienna and Berlin.
| If these be the result Of an old usage, send me
report on it. 1 have long time calcula-
ted the means of re-establishing the social
edifce, and now l am obliged to watch over
the maintenance of public liberty. L do
not mean that the French should become
SerlS. In rance, all IldI 10 HoO PloniuiCou
is permitted; and nothing can be prohibited
except by the laws and the tribunals, or by
measures of high police, where public NOR
ais and public order are concerned. L re-
peat, l will not have censorship; because
every bookseller answers for the WORK he
puts into circulation; because | have no
wish to be responsible for the nonsense that
may be printed; and because / will not al
low mere clerk to tyrannize over mind and
mutilate genius. NAPOLEON"

AN ingenious plan was hit upon by a
female contraband, time since, to levy
contributions upon the people of this city
She claimed to be an agent endowed by the
Government, and she had papers to that
effect, to obtain places for contrabands to
live in Northern families, as servants. She
was shrewd, intelligent negro, keen and
quick-witted, and asked only So 80 per
head, one-half the passage money from
Fortress Monroe, promising that the Gov
ernment would pay the other half. Some o.
the strongest Abolitionists were taken with
