SHALL WE MEET AGAIN.

The following is said to be one OF
the most brilliant articles written by
the lamented Geo. D. Prentice:
The fiat of nature is inexorable'
There is no appeal for relief from the
GREAT law which dooms Us tothe dust.
We flourish and fade as the leaves OF
the forest, and the flowers that bloom
and wither in day have no frazier
hold upon life than the mlShtlest
monarch that ever shook the earth
with his footsteps Generations OF
men willappear and disappear as the
grass. and the multitude that throng
the world to day, will disappear as
the footsteps on the shore. Men sell
dom think of the great event Of death
until the shadows fall across their
own pathway, hiding from their eyes
the faces of loved ones whose living
smile was the sunlight of their exist
eace. Death is the antagonist OF Ilfe,
and the cold thought of the tomb IS
the skeleton of all feasts. We do
not want to go through the dark val
lev, although its dark passages may
lead to parad Sc; we do not want to
lay down in tue damp grave: even
with princes as bed fellows. In the
beautiful drama of Ion. the hope of
Immortality, so elegantly uttered by
the death devoted Greek. finds a
deep response in the thoughtful soul.
When about to yield his young ex-
istence as a sacrifice to fate, his
Clemantha asks if they should meet
again, to which he replies: Il nave
asked that dreadful question OF the
hills that look eternal-of the clear
streams that flow forever-of the
stars among whose fields of azure my
raised spirit has walkedin glory. All
were dumb: but as l gaze upon thy
living face, feel that there is some
thing in the love that mantles thro
its beauty that cannot wholly perish

THE FRENCH ARMS JOB.

The New York Nation thus states the case of Mir Summers charges:
 Mir. Sumner has spread new cloud over the administration sky, by moving for se- lect committee to investigate some scandaious cbarpes against the War Department, in the matter of the sale of Government arms and ammunition to the French, during the late war. The charges have recently been brought to light by the investigations of the French National Assembly into the transac- tions of NJ. Place, the French consul at this port during the war.
 If appears that the Messrs. Remington, the noted fife manufacturers, were employed to furnish arms to the French, and after selling all they had on hand, themselves, tried to nurchase from the War Department, which deciine,l to sell them, knowing them to be acfing for the French, and also declined to sell to one Sqnire, knowing him to be their agent. But they got over this difficulty by putting forward Mir. Richardson, with whom the War Department dealt freely, not only selling him 10000 altered Springfield rifles. but setting the Government cartridge factory to work to make cartridges for him. These facts Squire communicated Tn high glee, in an official letter to the President of the Armament Committee at Tours, in De cember 1870, in which he said "they had the strongest influences working for them, which will use all their efforts to succeed. But this is not all, nor the worst. It appears from the report of the Secretary of War last year, that the receipts from the sale of ordnance stores in 1870, amounted to Slo,O00,00O; but 1t appeared from the report of the Secretary of the Treasury for the same year, that he only received from this source S8, ,286, l3l.10, leaving difference of Sl, ,700, 900, which MT. Sumner wishes to have accounted for. It ap- pears, moreover, that the French Govern ment paid for these arms and ammunition $i1 100000 gold, or, at the rate of exchange, Sl4,O00,000 in currency. There is here, then, difference of S4,000,000, and the French Government asks our Government very plain ly to find out who got it.
 The answer of the Administration organ to these charges, thus far, is that Schurz and Sumner are in a conspiracy against the Prcsi- dent, and arc animated by the basest mo- lives that behind them is an acute, dexter ous, cunning Frcnchman, named the Marquis de Chambrun, who is semi-officially connect ed with the French Government, who has supplied Sumner with the materials for his charges, and put him up to the making or them.
 Chambrun's opinion is that some Army officer has been guilty of gross corruption in the matter, but the Secretary of War says he has always refused or failed to accuse any officer in particular. The charge of selling arms knowingly to the French Government the Secretary denies fatly; he only sold them to private individuals, Richardson included; {; but he acknowledges that he took the unpre- cedented step of setting the Government factory to work to make cartridges, He de- denies all knowledge of " any influence exert cd in favor of or for tie success of any trans action between the United States and Mir.
