The Oldest City In the World.

Damascus is the Oldest city in the
world; Tyre and Sidon have crumhled
on the shore; Baalbec is q ruin Pal
myra lies buried in the sands of the
desert Nineveh and Babylon have dis
appeared from the shores of the Tigris
and Euphrates. Damascus remains
what it was before the days of Abraham
"a centre of trade and travel, an island
Of verdure in a desert, "a predestined
capital" with martial and sacred as
sociations extending beyond thirty cen
turies.
1t was near Damascus that Saul of
Tarsus saw the light from heaven,
above the brightness Of the sun; the
street which 10 called Straight, in which
it 10 said he prayeth," still runs
through the city; the caravan comes
and goes as it did one thousand years
ago; there is still the shlek, the ass,
and the water wheel; the merchants of
the Euphrates and Mediterranean still
occnpy these with the mulsitude of
their waters" The city which Mahomet
surveyed from neighboring height,
and was afraid to enter, "beesuse it is
given to men to have but one paradise,
and, tor his part, he was resolved not 70
have it in this world" is this day what
Julian called the I" Eye of tie East" as
it was in the time of Isaiah "the Head
of Syria"
| From Damascus came our damson,
our blne plnms, and the delicious apricot
of Portugal called damasco damask,
our beautiful fabric of cotton and silk,
with vines and flowers raised upon a
smoo.h, bright ground; damask rose,
introduced into England in the time OF
Henry VII; the damask blade, so famous
the wor over for its keen edge and Ts-
markable elasticity, the secret Of the
manufacture of which was lost when
Tamerlane carried off the artists into
Persia; and that beautiful art of inlay
ing wood and steel with silver and gold
"a kind of mosaic engraving and sculp
ture united, called damaskeening, with
which boxes and bureaus, and swords
and guns, are ornamsnted.
II Il is still city OF flowers and brigh,
waters; the streams from Lebanon, the
"rivers OF Damaacus,' the "river of
gold," still murmur and sparkle in the
wilderness of Syrian Gardens.

AgrIcuifnra m the s0nth.

The Savannah Republican labors to
overcome the incredulousDess that pre-
walls in the Southern mind, respecting
the feasibility of free labor, as follows :
We have hundreds OF thousands of
acres of the richest kind OF cotton and
rice lands situated within easy reaching
distance of this city, which are now me-
elected, and iu many cases abandoned
by their owners who, instead of moving
to make things turn up, prefer to wait
like Micawber, until something acci-
dentally turns up. These valuable
lands are embraced in extensive planta-
tions whose unwieldy dimensions render
their proper cultivation, under the new
order OF things at least, impracticable,
if not Improbable and impossible. The
owners of these gigantic estates, palsied
with the political change wrought by the
war, seem to have neither life nor ami
nation left in their veins.
No efforts have yet been made to dis
pose of whole or a portion of these
lands to Northern capitalists, which ap-
pears to us to be the only possible and
practicable method Of solving the prob
Iem ofinertia, which is daily weakening
the agricultural power Of the South.
Why are these lands not placed in the
market at once, where they could be
su5divided into small farms adapted to
the means of purchasers, and readily
sold to healthful and enterprising pop
ulation, which would be invited to our
State by these advantages2 We cannot
believe that the sole cause is to be found
in the hostility felt for all Northern pso.
pie, but we rather trace it to that leth-
srgy and dependency which is born of
incredulousness. Inspire the hearts of
our people with faith in the free labor
system, and obstacles which now assume
gigantic proportions win melt like dew
before the morning sun.
All that is absolutely required now, is
the passage of an act compelling freed.
men to keep all contracts legitimately
and freely made with their employers,
and we believe such law will soon be
enforced by the Freedmen's Bureau.

BosToE, Feb.7 Papers received by
steamer bring Napoleon's speech to the
French Legislature. 81.
LONDON, Jan. 22.-The Paris cores
pondent of the London Daily Necs says
that it has transpired in court circles
that the Emperor is greatly displeased
with the Emperor Maxamilian, on very
many grounds, espe sially on account Of
the reception given to the French Coun.
cellor, sent to Mexico to take the fnan.
ces in hand, and it is iusinuated that
this is. one reason for the withdrawal Of
the French troops.
New YoRK, Feb THE following is
portion of the Emperor Napoleon's
Speech TO the Corps Legislative, on the
22i Of January:
To you nv views are as in preceding
years. will examine, with you, the
principal questions which interest our
country abroad. Peace seems assured
everywhere, for everywhere the means
are soeght for amicably settling diff
cnlties, instead of ending them with the
sword. The meetipg of English and
French fleets in the same ports, has
shown that the relations formed upo
the field Of battle have not been weak
ened; time has only cemented the
agreement of the two countries.
In regard to Germany, it is my inten-
ton to continue to advocate a policy of
neutrality, which, without preventing us
at times from being displsased or salts
hed, leave us, nevertheless, strangers TO
questions in which our interests are not
directly engaged. 81 k8@ an
Italy recognized by almost al the
powers of Europe, has strengthened it's
unity by lnaugursting its capital in the
center of the Peninsula. We may
count upon. serupuloua execution Of
the treaty of the 18th Of Sept, mber, aud
upon the indispensable maintenance Of
the power of the Holy Father
As 1 expressed the hope last year that
our expedition 10 Mex CO was approach
ing its termination, am coming to an
understanding with Macmillan to fix
the spoch for the recall of our troops,
before their return is effected, with out
compromising the Frenchinterests which
we have been defending in that country.
/ North America Issuing victoriousl7 from
3 formidable struggle, has established
the Union, and has solemnly proclaimed
the abolition of slavery. France, which
forgets no noble page of her history,
offers. her sincere wishes for the pros
perity of the North American Republic,
and for the meintainance of amicable
relations, which soon will have had a
century's duration. The emotion pro
duced in the United States by the pres
ence Of our troops in Mexico will be pa
cited by the frankness of our declara-
tions. The American people will com
prehend that our expedition, to which we
invited them, was not Opposed to their
interests. Two nations, equally Jealous
of their independence, ought to avoid
every step which might effect their dig.
nifty and their honor.
