OF Thackeray's first experience with
American oysters, Mr.. Fields. writes
In London he had been very curious
in his inquiries about American oysters,
as marvellous stories, which he did not
believe, had been told him of their great
size. We had taken care that the largest
specimens 10 be procured should startle
his unwonted vision when he came 20 the
table, although, / blush at the remem-
brance of it now, we apologized in our
wicked waywardness, to him for what We
called the extreme smallness Of the oysters,
promising that We would do better next
time. Six bloated Falstafiian biyalves
lay before him in their shells. noticed
that he gazed at them anxiously, with
fork in hand, then he whispered TO me,
with look of anguish: Glow shall |
do it?" j described to him the simple
process by which the free-born citizens Of
America were accustomed TO accomplish
such a task. He seemed satisfied the
thing was feasible, selected the smallest
one of the half dozen, and then bowed
his head as if he were saying grace. All
eyes were upon him TO watch the effect Of
a new sensation in the person Of a great
British author. Opening his mouth very
wide, he struggled for a moment, and
then all was over. i shall never forget
the comic look of despair he cast upon
the other five over-occupied shells. j
broke the perfect stiffness by asking him
how he felt. Profoundly grateful" he
gasped, and as if had swallowed a
little baby"

England.
As many conflicting runaors have been
circulated with reference 10 the course
pursued by the ex, Empress Of the French
since her arrival IN this country we think
IL well 20 report the following statement.
which comes to US fEpm reliable quarthr:
ssThe last Imperial council was held at
the Tuileries early in the morning Of the
4th of September. The Empress an
nounced that she had received q message
in cipher from the Emperor confirming
the news of the surrender of the army
and the captivity of his Majesty. Alter
an animated discussion the Empress was
advised by a member of the Council to
Immediately oanveke q meeting a the
officers of the Paris garrison in the court
yard of the palace, TO tell them what had
happened, and ask for an assurance Of
their support. <6Ae Empress replied that
she did not do. &c pe appeal would be
Loyalty responded &, out she would not
for the sake of The Emperor or the re-
gency Of the dynasty, suffer a drop of
blood to be shed in civil strife.
During her exile her Majesty has strict
ly maintained the same impassive atti-
tude. She has constantly rejected every
proposal to interfere in the affairs of
France. She has lived in complete pri-
vacy, and, so far from intruding herself
on public attention, has successfully stri-
ven to keep her name out of the papers.
The accounts that have appeared Of her
Maiesty's intriuges and negotiations fol
the restoration Of the imperial power are
absolutely and entirely without founda-
ton. The resolution adopted on the 4th
of September, not, in time of war and
invasion, to incur the risk Of civil dis
cord, has never been violated in thought
or deed"

A FEW reasons why they should have the
IA preference over all others:
l. Wheeler g. Wilson's Sewing Machine is
much simpler than any Of tho others; re.
qutring loss; than half the amount Of ma
ohinery.
LAS the result OF this simplicity, this ma.
chine is much less liable than the others to
get out Of repair. ii!
s: Another result Of this simplicity is
greater durability. hsi
4. Another result is less friction, and. con.
sequently, greater ease and rapidity OF mo-
tion, with less noise
8. And greatest Of all, that it 1ses no Shut.
tie, and makes tho lock stitch.
It is the cheapest to buy the best. Buy the
machine that has justly fairlya and honora-
bly, won reputation and independence
against strong and bitter competition. For
more than twonty years has the Wheeler i
now stands the UNI walled Sewing Machine of
the enlightened civilized world. Buy the ma
chine that has been thus tested and proved,
and then you are sure to get tho best. For
