the readers OF the HERALD are presented this

or letters from our special correspondents abroad.
Ths hustle invariably attendant on general cleo

that the great question which formed the issue be-
tween the two contending parties should be sub
ected to analysis and that the results likely to arise
irOm the success OF the disestabshment Of
the Irish Church should be subjected to criticism.
In the letter Of the London correspondent Of the
HERALD the subject Is reviewed and considered
In an impartial manner. From Paris we learn
that strange rumors are anoat concerning Napo-
leon, and they are given for what they are worth.
The movements OF the ex-Queen Of SPAN are also
