PROCLAMATION By NAPOLEOE.--Ihe
Paris Journal Official Of the 2lss. pub
fishes the following proclamation by the
Emperors 81
Frencbmen, tie Constitution OF 1862.
drawn MP, in virthe Of powers which you
gave me. and ratified by 100000 of
votes, which rerestablished the Empire,
has procured for France eighteen years
of calm and prosperity, which have not
der, and left the way open to all improve
ments. Thus, the more security has
been confirmed, the larger is the part it
has taken in the progress Of liberty. But
successive changes have altered the basis
of the plebiscitaries, which cannot be
modified without an appeal to the ma
tion. It becomes Indispensable, then,
that the new constitutional pact shall be
approved by the people, MS were former.
~ the Constitutions of the Republic and
the Empire at those two epoohs.
It was believed, even as I myself be-
lieve to-day, that anything done without
you was illegitimate. The Constitution
of Imperial and Democratic France may
be reduced to small number of funda-
mental provisions. These cannot be
changed without your consent. Your
decision will have the advantage of rem
dering definite tho progress already
made, and of placing beyond the inhu-
ence of political fluctuations the prin-
ciples of the Government. Time, lost
too often in barren aud embittered con-
troversies, may be more usefuly en-
ploycd hereafter in seeking for the means
of increasing the moral and material
well-being of the greatest number. I
address myself to all of you who, from
the 10th of December, 1848, surmounted
all obstacles to place me at your head.
To you who, for twenty-five years, have,
without cessation, guarded me by your
suffrages, sustained me by your co.ope-
ration, and rewarded me by your affec-
tion, give me new proof of confidence
in bringing to the ballot-box IN afirma-
revolution. You will place order and
der easier in the future the transmission
of the crown to my son. You have al
most unanimously. for eighteen years,
clothed me with the most extensive pow
ers; be also equally unanimous to-day in
supporting the Transformation of the
imperial regime. Agreat nation has no
way of attaining its development without
resting on the institutions which guar
antee at the same time stability aud pro-
greas.
To the call which I make on you to
ratify the liberal reforms realized during
the last ten years, reply Yes. AS for my
self, faithful to my origin, shall con-
tinqe, penetrated by your thought and
fortified by your will, and conGding in
Providence, to work without cessation
for the prosperity and grandeur of
France. NAPOLEON.

MANNERS. Manners are what vex or
soothe, exalt or debase. barbarize or re-
fine us, by a constant, steady, uniform,
insensible operation, like that OF the air
we breathe in. They give their whole
form and color to our lives. According
to their quality they aid mortals, they
supply them or totally destroy them.

FREE SOUTH CAROLINA.
SCENES IN HER LEorsLArusg.

SCkNEb IN HEX LEGISLATURES,
A correspondent Of the N. Y. World
writes the following in relation to matters
10 the South Carolina Legislature
"The Legislature has adjourned, after
spending months in wasting the treasury.
ratifying many unwisc and oppressive
acts, and filling the pockets Of the mem
bcrs at the expense Of the unrepresentsd.
taxpayers Of the State. The scenes i'm.
mediately preceding the adjournment
were OF the most disgraceful character.
The House presented picture Of pande-
monium. closing up With a vote to the
Speaker Of gift Of $500, 10 considers
ton, doubtless, Of the free liquors and
cigars furnished by him to the members
during the escssion. The scene 10 the SeDats
defies description. Tho negro members
pronounced the carpet bag2ers, thieves
escaped felons,' etc. with the most offen-
sive prefxes, one Of them charging Leslie
(the, Senator from Barnwell) with keep
ing house Of ilI-famc in New York city,
and saying he had only escaped the peni.
tentiary by coming South.
Leslie rctored most savagely, telling
one Senator that the coat he was then
wearing had been stolen, aud he GesIie)
could prove it. Pointing round to ths
Senators he declared that they were
scoundre!s who had sold their votes time
and again, and been bribed and bought
by the highest bidder. He then gave
chapters from their past history, in which
he presented the honorable Senators, fy-
ing from justice in other States and fetch.
ing up at last in Carolina. He declared
the Republican party stencil in the nos
trils of decency. and as q Republican
himself, he said he was ashamed Of it.
A, low as they said be had been, he new
er thought he would reach the dcpths Of
an association with such rascals and
thieves as made up this Legislature The
black Senators replied in the same strain,
swore that the carpe, bag reign was en-.
dcd, and that the State telonged to the
negroes. and they would rule it,
In the middle Of such q scene the no.
torious Joe Crews exposed large pile OF
greenbacks, on table; Tim Hurley and
two negro Senators whispered together
with Crews over this pile of fmoney-then
Tim circulated among the members, whis-
psripg to each, and immediately the phos-
phate monopoly bill was taken up and
passed.
After such scene the President of
the Senate, in the closing remarks actual
y congratulated the body on the harmony
which characterized their deliberations,
and th ir courtesy toward the Chair and
towards each other.
Many really important measures id
which the white people of tho State were
interested, we're for this reason alone,
probably, laid over, and the mass of the
legislation is of no benefit to the State,
however important for party ends. or the
aggrandizement of particulat ''rings:''

SECRETS OF MAsosRY.-Old Zach
Wheeler was quite character in his
time, being q clever, easy-going con-
fiding man, who married TO let every
body cheat him out of his inherited
estates. just as his last farm was
about TO slip out of his hands, he sue
ceeeded in raising the money to lift
the mortgage. Aaron Remer, a promi-
nent Mason, accompanied him TO the
town. AS they were riding along on
horseback, Zach said to Aaron, in q
conhding tone:
" Now, Aaron, we are here all
alone, and want you TO tell me the
secrets of Masonry.
/" I can't Zach, they would kill me. "
" Why, no they won't; they'll nev-
er find it out"
Yes they will you'll speak Of it"
No, swear I won't"
Well, if you'll ride close along
side of me, and put your hand on my
thigh and take the oath, I'll admins
ter, I'll tell you the secrets of Ma
sonny"
Zach was not slow to comply; and
a most powerful iron-clad oath"
was administered and taken.
Now for the secret" exclaimed
the impatient and unsuspecting VIC
tim.
Well," said Aaron, with mock
solemnity and secrecy, in the first
place, we Masons combine together to
cheat everybody as much as we can.
This the first grand secret.
The second is like unto it. When
we cant find anybody else to cheat,
we cheat each other, but as little as
we can"

dent surprise, ~ swear I'll join. l

MAN.-Man is wonderful creature,
but if he equalled the beasts, birds and
insects in their own peculiar powers,
how much more wonderful he would
be If, for instance, he could swim
like fish, run like an antelope, gal
lop like horse, climb like monkey,
spring like o tiger, and fly like an ea-
gle; or if he could roar like lion,
sing like nightingale, scent like a
hound, hear like rabit, hold on like
q leach, preserve like an ant. see rs
far as bird, guide himself like bee,
jump like grasshopper, sleep like q
toad, and diet like an anaconda, what
a marvel of creation would he be =
But, taking his short comings into
consideration, he is not so much, af-
ter all. Think of it! If mans voice
bore the same proportion to his weight
that canary's does, his lightest word
could be heard at the distance of eight
hundred miles; and if at the same
time, he had, relatively to his bulk,
the same jumping powers as the
tiniest flea, he could spring from New
York City to China at q single bonnd.
All! that would be something like
Hearth a,td Hontc.
