"A HAPPY WonAN.-A happy woman
Is she not the very sparkle and sunshine
of lifel A woman who is happy because
she can't help it, whose smiles even the
coolest sprinkle of misfortune cannot
dampeu. Men make terrible mistake
when they marry for beauty, for talent,
or for style. The sweetest wives are
those who possess the magic secret of be-
ing contented under any circumstances.
Rich or poor, high or low, it makes no
difference, the bright little fountain os joy
bubbles up just as mpsically IN their
hearts.

WAR VIcTIMs.-We find it stated that
the number of Union soldiers whose re-
mains now reposo in national cemeteries is
328,O00. If we add to these the men
whose bodies were brought home, and
those who came home to die, or who died
at home in consequence of wounds re-
ceived or illnesses contracted while in the
military service, those who were buried
where they fell and have not since been
disturbed, and the seamen who fell iii
action or died of wounds or from sickness,
we shall see that the number must be
about half million. Putting the number
of dead rebels at 500, 600, we have u total
of SOo,0o0men dead as a consequence OF
| the rebellion.

The French Army Bill.

ST.. PETERSBURG, Jan. 24.-The Bours-
men Zeitung. published here, calls atten-
ton editorially to the fact that the new
French army bill materially increases the
power of Napoleon, and it is sure to prompt
him to assume a higher stand and bolder
tone in regard to European politics.
military Preparations in Europe.
Z PARIS, Jan. A.-The Semi-official La
Patrie, in an editorial article, observes that
Russia is the only power not now in har-
mony with the rest of Europe. Efforts of
this character to tranquilize the public
mind and give assurance of prolonged
peace, are singularly antagonistic by the
fact that every power in Europe is active
ly engaged in arning as if for anticipated
war. .uii7i s-- i9 ifat'7itJfi qt2h = .-i-io@'
