While here, the illustrious Confederate
has been the Object Of a S.ympathizing
and very nattering curiosity. There
are few eminent, especially among
those belonging to the army, or con
ncctcd with the government, who laye
not sought the honor o fsccing and en-

and General Fave, Governor of the
PolyteclnicSrhOol, has volunteered to
guide him through all the military cs.
adjustments of the capital. General
Heaurc4ard is astonishcd by all that he
sees here, At Versailles, the battle

Before some Of them he remained more
Than half an hour in contemplation.
The things which most interested him,
however, were the artillery museum
and the curious collection at the Hotel

to name, an extremely brilliant offer,
which, however, he declined. He was
offered the chici command Of an army

The General always replies that he
thinks not, and this answer invariably
seems to cause astonishncnt--why, in.

The Paris correspondent Of the New
Orleans Times, abiding to the com
plimentary offer which appears to have
been made to General Beauregard by
the newly elected lIospodar Of the
Moldayio Wal!achian (Roumanian
Principalities, says:
