The EMPTY SLEEVE is the title of a
beautiful and touching picture, published
by L. C. Buttre, As Franklin street, New
York City. Price 50 per copy. The
soldier holds his child in his lap, and the
child is examining the empty sleeve, as
if to ask what it means. The engraving
as a work of art is not only exceedingly
fine, but it is the best picture we have met
with for long time.

each. The barge of Admiral Goldsbor-
ough was also in the list-a New York

row-locks for only twelve men. On start

position, but this was soon rectifed, and
the Yankee boys went ahead and made
themselves the winners in race of near
ly two miles by about a hundred yards.
The boat which beat all others in the
Mediterranean fleet was in the race, with
her sixteen oars, but the American twelve

THE ANGELS GIFT.

Out among the sunny meadows
With the sunshine in her hair,
Binding into sheayes the shadows
That are falling here and there;
Singing through the dusky'valleys;
Chasing echoes up and down,
Goes the little maiden Lucy,
With her locks of shadowy brown.
Four sweet summer-times have risen
From the green lapbf the spring.
And the beauty of their garments
Has been over every thing;
Four times have the autumn meadows
Been with golden fruitage ripe,
Since the angels left her lying
Meath the pearly gate of life.
Down and down the sunny future
Lies the way that she must tread,
Very fair it is and pleasant
With the sunshine overhead
May the white hands of the angels
Guide her gently where the light
Reaches to the far off glory
That is never dim with light,

Such was the condition of affairs in regard TO
Mexico. when, on the 22d Of November last,
official information was received from Paris that
the Emperor of France had some time before
decided not TO withdraw detachment OF his
forces in the month of November past, accord
ing to engagement, but that this decision was
made with the purpose OF withdrawing the
whole of those forces in the ensuing spring
OF this determination, however, the U. States
had not received any notice or intimation and,
so soon as the information was received by the
Government, care was taken to make known
its dissent 10 the Emperor of France.
cannot forego the hope that France Will re-
consider the subject, and adopt some resolution
in regard 70 the evacuation Of Mexico which
will conform as nearly as practicable with the
existing engagement and thus meet the just
expectations of the United States. The papers
relating TO the subject will be laid before you.
tits believed that, with the evacuation OF Mexico
by the expelitionary forces, no subject for serl-

States would remain. The expressions Of the

that the traditionary friendship between the
two countries might, in that case, be renewed
and permanently restored.
