TORQUAY.
Fugebie's Present Residence.
nnOurners.

Torquay, which has lately been selected by
the eX-Empress of France for her residence, has
been very favOrite resort of continental poten-
tates of late years. The Russian royal family
especially affect this retreat. Members of the
House of Orleans have also been visitors there,
and more lately the Queen of the Netherlands
spent some days in the hotel where the eX-
Empress has been staying.
Torquay, which is close to the spot where
William the Third of England landed when he
came to ascend the throne of England, is of
modern fame as compared with Bath, Scar
borough, and many other English watering
places. Forty years ago 1t was mere fishing
village. 1t now contains many thousands of
inhabitants, is agiating for the right to return
member TO Parliament and is one. of the most
wealthy and respectable communities in Great
Britain. All this prosperity is probably. owing
to the fact that number of years ago some
fashionable doctors concluded that the south
coast of Devonshire was peculiarly favorable to
patients suffering from pulmonary diseases,
which carry off nearly half the population of
Great Britain.
Torquay is one of the few places in England
which enjoy two seasons. In the summer, num-
bers of persons from London and other great
centres resort there; in the winter 1t becomes
British Nice or Mentone. 1t must not however,
be concluded that the consumptive patients have
it all to themselves These unfortunates are ac-
companied by friends and relatives, who are
many Of them quite as much bent on amusement
as the invalids are upon health. Torquay, in
the winter, is consequently one of the gayest
places in the country; ball follows ball, and din
ner party dinner party There is club full of
loungers, and the fashionable shops are thronged
with purchasers.
The rents paid in the winter for favored resi-
dcnces are heavy, reaching as high as $3.50 a
week. indeed, it is very dear place in the win
ter season. The proprietors of Torquay are Sir
Lawrence Palk, NJ. p for the county of Devon,
and Mr.. Cary, of Tor Abbey, who represents a
Roman Catholic branch of the family of Lord
Falkland. The rise of the town has been n
mine of wealth to these gentlemen, and quite
revived their somewhat dropping fortunes.
Sir L. Palk is reported to get e14, 900 year
from property which his father gave 10000 to
purchase, and when the leases fall in the rents
derived from it will be far greater. This gen.
tlemap, who had fine seat about fifteen miles
from Torquay, has lately built handsome
house in the town, and his wife, very pretty
woman, is the leader of society.
There is every probability that the eX- Empress
will draw" and that Torquay will be unusu-
ally thronged this autumn and winter. Per-
haps it will suit her ex-Majesty nearly as well
as Biarritz.

THE NEW ORLEANS STANDARD.

We are glad to see again upon our table
the New Orleans Standard, the publica-
ton OF which has recently been resumed
by Hon. J. Willis Menard. We observe
he is assisted in his editorial labors by
Mr.. w. G.. Brown. The Standard, under
its present management, is lively, spicy
paper, and is justly regarded as all access
sion to the Republican power in the State.
MIR. Menard announces the resumption of
his paper in the following we'll written
paragraph:
CATER a few months Of involuntary rest,
We have again taken up our gray goose
quill to battle against the willy 'inac-
tivity' Of the Democratic party. We shall
advocate the same principles as of yOre, and
shall continue i'll striving to keep the party
intact, ignoring all species of boiling or di-
vision in Republican ranks No black or
white mans party for us: we recognize the
Republican party only. This is our creed,
and we intend, in the future as in the past,
to fight it out from this standpoint"

Committee, November 26, 1870. :
Referring to the article which appeared
in the New Orleans REPuBLICAS, on the seven
teenth instant headed German Republican
Veteran Club of Louisiana" the undersigned in be-
half of the German Republican Ward Clubs of this
city, herewith most eInphatically protest against
the presumption that the Sherman Republican
is the pioneer of Republcanism among the German
citizens here and that the members of said Repub-
lican Veteran Club were the organizers and leaders
of the twelve or fifteen German Republican Clubs
existing in this city. Not one of the German Re-
publican Ward Clubs Except Mr. Spranley's, of the
Fourth Distrctl has been organized by any men,
Der of said Republican Veteran Club. The results
accomplished on the seventh instant are certainly
not due to the exertons of the members of the
German Republican Veteran Club of Louisiana"

ON CARONDELET STREET.

Some large amounts of greenbacks, ex-
pected to arrive from New York yesterday,
did not come to hand, and the, relief anti
cipated from that source is, consequently,
deferred. Money is abundant i'll New
York now, and is to be had on easy terms,
and, hence, it is natural to suppose that
it will soon commence to flow in this
direction, attracted by the peculiar condi-
ton of ourmarket. In New York gene
raj decline in the stock market is noted,
very much to the chagrin, it is said, of
pool which had been formed to put up
New York Central, and which had, very
recently, bought 10000 shares Of that
stock. The New York Hord intimates
that Vanderbilt had taken advantage Of
this movement to unload on his friends
at high figure, in the same way that he
got out Of Pacific Mail and Nicara-
qua Transit. With the exception of
this operation, Wall street is said to be
almost barren of speculation, the clques
who rule the stock market having
brought the art of milking" to such per-
lection, that outsiders, and the public
generally, find it impossible to make any
money, whether they buy long" or "seu
short" The consequence is that the
cliques are forced to combat each other.
and, in the long run, are apt to lose as
much as they gain. People with money
to invest, are, therefore, kept out Of
the street, and thus much capital, which
would otherwise be devoted to specula-
ton in New York, remains idle, or seeks
investment elsewhere. Such will always
be the result when the brokers', forsaking
their legitimate business of buying and
selling on orders, or Of carrying stocks on
a margin, and at fair rate of interest,
use their superior sasacity and informa-
ton for the purpose of manipulating the
stock market. In the end they will force
outside operators away from the street,
and will have to bring their wits to bear
against each other.
We notice that the first series Of Chat
tapooga railroad bonds were put on the
New York market on the eighteenth.
They are highly recommended by the
Word
Fancy stocks Yesterday continued dull.
There was good inquiry for Sugar Shed,
but no marked advance in price. Some
lots changed hands at 81, which is the
maximum figure yet reached.

tionary two or three days, manifested
