1t is stated that the Emperor Napoleon is
eudeayoring. through the medium Of special
enrovs to all the neutral Courts Of Europe
to obtain guarantees for the maintenance Of
the Napoleonic dynasty and the integrity of
the territory of France which would seem
to show that he despairs Of maintaining his
throne by his own resources, SO long and 50
carefully husbanded, in France On the
other hand the Paris correspondent Of the
London Times says d" The opportunity to
deprive Napoleon Of power, even if it exist
cd, was not seized, and may never return.
The Imperialists are recovering their bold
nes., and arc turning ,he tables against
their opponents, and it is not impossible
that. even If defeated, France may still be
long to Napoleon"
1t Is hard predicting what may OF may
not happen in France. But it would seem
to be impossible that Napoleon's dynasty
could ever recover from the shock it has re-
ceiyed. The machine he constructed with
such care, to keep him in his seat and to
place his son in it after him, is shattered.
lie may be allowed to retain the semblance Of
power; but he will be hereafter, as he seems
to be now, a mere puppet in the hands Of
the men who are the real rulers Of France.

The minute knowledge displayed by the
Prus,ians. Of the PROVINCES of France iuyad-
cd hv tacm. recalls the achievements of the
first Napoleon in difusing Ike useful i1for-
nation among the officers of his armies.
The Pra-siau star officers appear TO be thor
ou.Lly at home in the districts through
which the German columns are moving.
They know the roads and the distances from
point to point, the fortified places IN ronfe,
the mountain passes. river crossings. &c,
and the places where sub istence fo7 men
and horses may be obtained. They know
where every village lies. They can tell At
once the amount Of stabling it has, and
whether there is a large church OF school
house in which men or horses can be quar-
tered. and tie maps OF the invaded prov
inces which every Prussian officer has been
supplied with, are acknowledge by the
French themselves t. be superior to anything
they possess in that line This foresight and
care on the part Of the Berlin authorities
goes far to explain the precision and success
which have characterized the movements Of
the German armies.

Mr.. Thurlow Weed, in an interesting letter
from Montreal, published il the " y CONNER
eial -3frsriiser, wonders why on earth articles
| Of domestic use should be SO much dearer in the
/ United States than in Canada, Other people
have been quite as much puzzled on that subject
for a long period past. Beef in Montreal costs
from twelve to fifteen cents Of our currency, per
pound; mutton from ten to twelve cents Every
thing else is in the same proportion Il you
want to ride about the city, you can have a
cab for two hours and half for two dollars,
e Why" says Mr. Weed, " should there be a
difference Of one hundred and fifty to two hun
dred per cent in the prices of the same articles,
by simply crossing the River St. Lawrence? -
Mr. Weed does not attempt to answer his ques-
ton, but New York paper suggests that this
may perhaps be found in L" the rapacity of shop
keepers and the silent resignation of the Ameri-
can public
PRINCE SALu-SALN.-PrinceF Felix Salm-Salm,
who is reported to have been killed ri the battle
of Gravelotte, was born in 1928 of an ancient
family Of Austria, and was brother Of Prince
Alfred, the head Of the House, who sits in the
Prussisn House Of Lords. Choosing the army
for profession, he became lieutenant in the
9th regiment of Prussisn Husssrs, but being
naturally Of rowing disposition, and wishing to
gee active service, he came to this country dur
ing the war Of the rebellion, and commanded a
regiment al one time in the 10Th corps At the
end Of the conflict he was appointed post COM
mander at Atlanta, Ga. In 1862 Prince Sam
Sslm married in New York the daughter of Col.
lie Clercq, an alliance which offended his high
born relatives, and caused his Punishment from
the court of Vienna. Nevertheless it was en-
tirely owing to the untiring efforts of this lady
that the prince escaped the fate of Macmillan,
whose fortunes he had helped in the ill-starred
experiment of Imperialism in Mexico. Rescued
from the dungeons Of Queretaro, Prince Salm
Salm returned to his native land, and a gain es-
poused the soldiers life as Il major Of the 4th
regiment of grenadiers Of the Prussian royal
guard.

C. Cavaroc, Esq. President Barbarin Gas Lighting
Company:
SrR-I can not refrain from complimenting you
for the invaluable service you have rendered to
families residing in the suburbs of the city, and
more or less every night exposed to accidents re-
sulting from the explosion of coal oil lamps.
Your generous aid to Messrs. 8arbarin & Dupas
soon had the effect of removing all apprehensions
for the safety of our families and homesteads.
The gas apparatus put up in my premises, under
the supervision of Mr.. Barbarin, works admirably
since four weeks. The light is excellent and its
great cheapness makes it specially commendable.
In this connection permit me to congratulate yeu
on your selection of Mr. Cast, VINO superintel the
laying of the pipes. His work is admirably per.
formed.
With the earnest hope that this great improve.
ment in lighting will soon be known by ALL and that
the results of this enterprise viii be common.
surate with its many fold benefits, remain,
Very respectfully. A. CASTAING.
