Hence, when this decision was finally taken
the writer of the present lines, who had only
temporarily accepted the diplomatic position
OF private secretary to Madame lie Baronne

nlent of his excellency Baron Won Strue,
willingly exchanged his career for that Of
commercial perspective, having always dem
onstrated most impressible desire to visit
the new world o. the continent of America,
of which as schoolboy his imagination had
already been inhamed as the land Of the all
renowned Robinson Crusoe. There is indeed
no telling how many youths have been en-

visit foreign climes, and if Alexander Won

the unvisited vilds af America, just so can We
say, the uncomfortable penchant for travel
ing and examining unknown countries and
people, brought us over to this land, which
not without cause has been styled the new
world, for indeed the more we proceed, the
greater becomes the contrast with what we

hemisphere, and we have no doubt that the

Among many things for which New Orleans i:
Justly famed her religious fairs, by their grandeur
their surprising richness, elegant taste, and the
number Of beautiful ladies always connected with
them, deserYedly hold d high place. But the most
enthusiastic adnirer Of the fairs of our city would
surely have been compelled to the acknowledg-
ment had he been there, that the fair held in the
basement Of the Methodist Episcopal Church
(South), in Gretna, a few evenings ago, was fully
equal in almost every respect, to the finest fair of
which New Orleans has ever boosted We had
the pleasure Of attending the fair Of which we
speak, and were SO forcibly struck with the com
pleteness of all the arrangements, the politeness
of every one connected with it, and the cordial
welcome extended to an, that we cannot forbear
giving a slight, though necessarily imperfect
account Of it.
The trip was one Of uninterrupted pleasure.
The moonlight ride over the noble old Mississippi
on the unique little steamer Belle Lee, the use of
which from r, N. to 10 midnight, the gentlemanly
proprietor, MIR. Philip Drum, kindly gave to the
conductors Of the fair enliFened as it was by the
genial company Of Mr.. F. i. Matthews the cour-
teons treasurer Of the committee Of arrangements,
deserve special mention. During the passage

Ed. CreSceut-A correspondent at Columbus,
Georgia. furnishes me with the following copy Of
On inscription on the tomb of Lieut.. GiIletv, Tween
teth Louisiana Volunteers G, s. A.:
Adjutant S. Isidore Guillett, who fell in the de-
Tense of this city, on the eve Of the memorable
Sunday night, April 10Th, 1865.
Never bfeathed there more gallant soldier
never did a more heroic, dauntless chiyllric
shirt wing back TO its maker than he whose noble
remains now calmly rest within this tomb.
Oh! what 4 shadow on my SOD was fling
When Earth lbs drge notes On the eQfiR rung.
The tomb was erected to his memory by a lady
friend, to whom Lieut.. G. was devotedly attached,
twill be remembered that the last fight Of the
war occurred at Columbus, Ca, April 10th, 1865,
when about two thousand southrons, under the
command Of Acting Brigadier General Colonel
Leon Won zinken, held Wilson'S raiders, twenty
thousand strong, in check for over twenty-four
hours Lieutenant Guillett was adiutant general
to the commanding officer, Colonel Leon Won
Zinken.
Adjt. G. fell at the very end of the action, was
the last officer killed, and probably the lastmartyr
to the lost cause.
He was resident of New Orleans; of good
family, loved and respected by his colonel and his
comrades. He was the last of three brothers, all
of them dying as becomes soldiers and brave men,
on the field Of battle.
1t will be seen that the ladies' of Georgia have
not forgotten or neglected the graves of their
brave defenders. NJ.

STOCKHOLDERS EcoNoMY.-The excur-
sion of the stockholders Of the Pacinc
Railroad Company to Alta, on Saturday,
July 2lst, comprised a large and select
company Of the snobocracy Of Sacramento.
The exercises at Alta included sickle me
and I'll tickle you" sporadic speeches, Gd
R5itum ct ad nausedm. Great I and little
U, great U and little I, alternated in glori-
hcation Of each other. It is an i'll wind
that blows nobody any good, however,
and this excursion inculcated at least one
lesson which our people should not fail to
profit by. When the citizens Of Placer
county have heretofore visited Sacramento,
the hotels and other places of business and
refreshments in the city have reaped a
golden harvest-the Placerites scattering
their savings with no niggardly hand.
The tide Of travel having measurably turn
ed, the Sacramentans give q practical repe-
tition of the lesson that "a penny saved is
a penny earned" Eatables and drinkables,
bought at wholesale, are imported, and
extravagant outlays for consumption OF
Placer county viands is judiciously obvi-
ated. We heartily commend this example
to the imitation Of those who may here
| after pay Sacramento a visit-it would be
far more economical to occupy some shed
in the suburbs, and consume home pro-
ducts, than to squander your means on
second-ra hotel accommodations.-Dlac

The PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION. III
we have by telegraph all the news which
has t~rahspired in relation to it, 1t Is evil
dent that the Philadelphia Convention is
surrounded by rocks and shoals, certain
to insure its shipwreck if not skilfully and
W sely handled. There may be a grim salts
faction in witnessing such men as Fernan-
do Wood, Clement c. Vallandigham, Geo.
z. Pendleton and others, who had preach
ed the right Of secession and n%on-coercion
to the verge of treason and q little beyond,
making a public recantation Of their here
sizes, and subscribing to the dogmas that
"the Union of the States is In every case
indissoluble, and is perpetual = that
"there is no right anywhere to dissolve
the Union"-that "slavery is abolished,
and" neither can or ought to be re-estab-
lished; " but for all that, Unionists every:
where would prefer to receive the gospel
of patriotism from other and cleaner hands.
It does not require the eye Of the prophe,
to foresee that If the Philadelphia Conven.
ton is made up of delegations appointed
by democratic State Central Commit
tees" and by the Woods, Vallandighams
and Pendletons, 1t will turn out to be q
wretched failures. F. Alta.

REPORT ON NEVADA INDnNs.-Com-
missioner Cody, Of Washington. has re-
ceived a report from the Superintendent
Of Indian Affairs, h. G.. Parker, dated
Carson City, Nevada. June 9Th, in relation
to the condition Of the tribes in his charge,
and the progress made in the efforts Of the
Government to establish among these
tribes an interest in agricultural pursuits.
He states that the Indians are in good
health, quiet and peaceable. The Wash
oes are now engaged in fishing 1T Lake
Tahoe. The Superintendent has caused a
tract of land to be plowed, situated on the
Truckee Reservation, on which the Piutes
have planted potatoes and other vege,a-
bles. They seem to be well pleased with
the idea, and work very faithfully. This
has been done without any expense to the
Government, and the Superintendent ex-
poets to create quite an interest in farming
among these Indians when funds are pro-
vided for that purpose-Wash Cor. S. F.

The EUROPEAN PRsss.-It appears that
Napoleon has somewhat relaxed the rigor
of his press laws, for during a recent de-
bate in the French Legislature, the editor
Of the Opinione Rationale declared that he
had not lately been forbidden to write
upon any subject, but had been requested
to refrain from discussing questions Of an
exciting character, though in all such
cases he had felt at full liberty to obey the
request or not, according to his own judg-
ment. The editor of the Steele also de-
clared that an invitation had occasionally
been sent to him to abstain from the dis
cussion Of certain questions, but it had
been done IN such a manner that he could
not suppose a refusal on his part would be
attended with any disagreeable conse-
quences. In Hamburg the chief Of police
police has recently warned the editors OF
that city to be careful in the management
Of their journals, in view Of the present
state Of war, as an ill-timed attack on any
German State might be made a pretext by
some of the ~belligerents for military occu-
patton, and thus endanger the independ-
ence of the city.
