This is document week Yellow Book, Blue

omac correspondence Of tho past year as Government
sees tit to publish Blue Book the proper title Of which
il Survey Of the Condition Of the Empire" is made
np of the reports Of Ministers each those subjects
coming within the survey Of his department. The
blank yleaf at the end Of Yellow Book takes the place
Of NJ Drouyn de Lhuys's correspondence with the
French Legation at Washington. Blue Booi, under
the chapter OF Foreign Affair." devotes brief para
graph TO the United States the substance Of which is
that the french Government secs no more immediate
prospect this year than last Of termination TO civil
war; observing meantime the strict neutrality II has not
varied from since the Of the war; and Is
decided 30 long as circumstances little iayora.
BILE not 10 renew any attempts for opening way to
settlement remaining passive though not Indifferent

Las, half Of the paragraph that the only communications
between the two Governments 10 which Drouyn de
Ibuys attributes much importance relate TO the inter
es,s Of uriya,e Frcnchmen in the United States which
have suffered by the war; and that his reclamaiions in
their favor have not been successful as he thinks be
had right to expect. Next 'olow two paragraphs on
Mexican afairs avoiding details, and not brilliantly
hopeul in tone; MACMILLAN has taken possession Of
the Crown in answer TO the National wish and the
MEXICAN people are undoubtedly delighted with him;
but the brigandnge In the country can't be put down in
day and our soldiers will need to stay in those parts

doubt Macmillan viii settle accounts with us as soon

A PALpABLE HIr BY GEN. GRANT.-During
the siege of Vicksburg knot of officers gath
cred around Gen. Grant, and for want of bet
ter employment amused themselves in guess
ing the ages of prominent officers. Among
the rest they discussed Gen. McClernand,
why was absent at the time, but whose con-
sequential airs were notorious, and whose
differences with Gen. Grant were equally
well known. One guessed that he was about
fifty years of age. "Oh. no." said Gen. .
Grant. ''such man was never got up in fifty
yearsl" The hit was too pal lpable not to
arouse the boisterous merriment of all around.

The Roman PEoroTYpE OF PRESIDENT
LINcoLN.-The Paris correspondent of the
London Gtode says another prototype for
Lincoln has been found in Servius Tulius by
the National Committee, in permanent sitting
at Rome. Tullius was done to death by pa
trciau daggers for having raised the plebs to
participation in power. and for having manu-
mitted the slaves. TO put on record the
views thus taken on the Tibcr, the committee
has embodied its notion in lapidary inscrip-
ton, which for greater local significance they
have caused to be deep cut in fragment
from the old tufa stone forming the ancient
town boundary, Ager .Srreu Tnli, traces of
which traverse the gardens of Sal!ust. This
block they mean for presentation at Washing

A BEAUTIFUL POEM.

The following beautiful composition was
read at the recent Commencement at Harvard
College, by Dr. OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES
Four Summers coined their golden light in leaves,
-Four wastefull Autumns flung them to the galc,
Four Winters wore the shroud the tempest weaveS,
The fourth wan April wept O. er hill and vale
Ana still the war-cloudS scowlcd on sea and land
with the red CLEANS Of battle staining through,
Nheh lo as parted by angels hand,
They open, and the Heavens again are blue.
Which Is the dream, the present or the past;
The night OF anguish the joyous morn?
The long, long years with horrors overcast,
Or the sweet promise of the day newborn?
Tell us, oh father, rs thine arms unfold
Thy irst-horn in their fast embrace,
Murmuring the prayer the patriarch brcahed OF old
9 Now let me die, for have seen thy FACET
Tell us, oh! mothcr!-nay, thou canst not speak,
tthy fond eyes shall answer, hrmmcd with
10y
Press thy mute lips against the sunbrowned cheek,
Is this = phantom--thy returning boy2
Tell US, OH maidcn,--ah! what Cnnst thou tell
That Natures record is not first to teach
The open voIumc all can read 50 WE'LL
Wi,h its twin crimson pages full Of speech?
And We who mourn your dead how scrnly true
The cruel hour that wrcnched their lives away,
Shadowcd with sorrows midnight veil for you,
For them the dnwning of immortal day!
Drcam-lIc these wears of ccnhct-not drcam
Death. ruin, ashes tell their awful tale,
Read hy the flaming wGr-track lu!d glcam
No dream, but truth that turns the nations pale!
For on the pillar raised by MARTYR hands
Burns the rckndl"l beacon Of the right,
Sowing ta seeds Of e DER all the lands
Thrones look century Older in its light
Rome had her triumphs; round the conqueror's car
The cnsisns waved, the hrazcn lnrious blew,
And o'cr the reckng spoils Of bandit
With out-spread wings the cruel eagles few
Arms, treasures cnpt;vcs, kings in clhnhing chains
Urged on by trnn.pling cohorts Lronzed and

And wild-cycd wonders SHARED on I.ybian plains
