A SPLENDID SoUvENIR.-A gold snuff-boX pre-
sented by Louis XVI, King of France, to Colonel
John Laurens, of South Carolina, Aid-de-camp to
General Washington on the occasion of that Off
GERS mission to France by order of the American
congress, to negotiate loan for his government
has been sent to jeweler in Baltimore by wild
ow lady, one of the family descendants of Colonel
Laurens, who has been impoverished by the war,
and who wishes to realize from it something for
the support Of herself and children.
The box is of pure gold, the exterior beautifully
cnImclcd, and studded with diamonds. The top
bears likeness of Louis ANI, set in IL cluster of
thirty -four diamonds while the edge is surrounded
with twenty -four diamonds This valuable relic OF
the revolution has been extensively admired since
| its exhibition to the public and ono citizen Of
Baltimore has offered two Thousand five hundred
dollars for it, but the cweler is DESTROYS Of rcas
ing much possible for the unfortunate lady,
and it is, therefore, probable it may bo disposed
of by rattle.
| It is matter of history that on the arrival OF
Col. Laurens in France DIR. Franklin endeavored
to persuade him not to present his petition to the
| King, but the Colonel was not to be driven from
his purpose, and the occasion Of the first evco
he walked directly up to his Majesty and handed
| him the petition of the American congress, re-
marking that - should the favor asked be denied,
or even DELAYED, there is to fear that the
sword which may no longer be drawn III
defence of the liberty of my country but be
welded as British subj bject against the monarchy
| of France The manly address of Col Laurens
had the desired effect, his mission being crowned
with success by France advancing the material AID
asked for.

THE NATIONAL FINANCE.-Business at the north
hesitates white the financial policy of the govern
ment remains unsettled. 1t is urged in Washing
inton that action upon the funding bill be taken,
and that the revenue will be ample for all purpo-
ses, and allow large sinking fund, if the fnan-
cial scheme of the internal revenue committee be
adopted The amount desirable by the scheme
is estimated at five hundred millions. If such is
the fact it is heavier tax upon the people, but,
If admitted, the south must be supplied with cur
rency, if crops of staples to be made and NOV

hundred millions is nearly reached but it IS con-
