Preparing tor the Conflict.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 4.--The proposed
compromise in the State government is
now said to have been based on a pri-
yate understanding. by which Antoine,
Lieutenant Governor and Brown, Super
intendent OF Public Education. both col
ored, were to give way to Penn and
Leisher. At present there is little pros
pect of its being effected.
The entire force OF. the White League
were yesterday secretly ordered to meet
to-day at the armories at 6 A. NJ, with
twenty-five rounds OF ammunition and
twenty -iour hours rations. The State
house will be garrisoned by a strong
force OF police and State militia.
The Conservatives returned will then
be allowed to take seats as quietly ae
possible and torn q quorum. Several
days will be allowed lor this purpose;
II they persist in remaining out, the
Governor will issue proclamation Or
dering new elections in their respective
DISTRICTS. Prominent White Leaguers
disclaim any intention to take part in
to-day's proceedings.
A Republican member of the Legisla-
ture from Terreponne farlsn was kllleu
last night in personal difficulty.

the Papal Court, although Tor many
years previous to the Pope's fall in 1870
there mad been In Rome u representative
.ot the British government, VINO, Tor the
convenience OF Englisn visitors, acted
as minister. 1t has recently transpired
thai ever since 1870 y quasi-diplomatic
Intercourse has been Kept up wltn the
Pope. The reason Tor this is not appa-
rent, and Lnere will probably be cali
maae by the Protestant leauers to have
a stop put 10 it on the ground that the
Pope, who is merely priest in the eye
oil the English law, and u foreign one at
that, can have no more interest for the
government than any other foreign eccle-
siustic. There Is an expressed opinion
that the recall of the British agent at
Rome would give general satisfaction at
home, and would also be particularly
pleasing to Bismarck. The latter con.
sideration will doubtless have due
weight with the advisers oi the crown,
France, Austria, and spain alec have
such relation with the Pope, but az
they are Roman Catholic countries the
case IL different with them.-Ex.

How to Make an AeOIlan Harm.

An instrument of the kind about to be
described seems to be of a very am
cient origin, pat was introduced during
the last century. The Eolian harp pro-
duces very pleasing melodious sound,
especially IN the open air, and is not
difficult to construct. A long, narrow
box, the length Of a window, or the po-
stion in which it is to be placed, is the
first requisite; it must be made OF thin
deal, four inches deep and five in width.
At the extremities of the top, glue two
pieces OF oak about half an inch high
and quarter of an inch thick, Tor
bridges 10 which the strings are to be
fixed; within the box, at each end, glue
two pieces of beechwood, about an inch
square and the width of the box, Into
one of the bridges fix seven pegs, such as
are used Tor piano strings; into the other
bridge tasten the same number of small
| brass pins, and to these pins lasten one
end OF the strings, made Of small catgut,
and twist the other end of the strings
around the pegs; then tune them in uni
son. Place over the top OF the strings .
thin board, supported by four pegs md
about three inches from the souhdfp&s
board, to procure a free passage for the
twind. The harp should be exposed to
the wind at a partly opened window to
increase the draught Of air, the door or
an opposite window in the room should
be open. The strings in current of air,
sound in unison; and with the increas-
| ing or decreasing force OF the current,
the melody changes into pleasing. soft
low sounds and diatonic scales, which
unite and occasionally form very de-
Ilightlul musical tones. Ii the harp can
be placed il suitable position, so as to
receive q sufficient draught Of air, in .
grotto, or remantically situated arbor, or
terfall, the effect on its sweet sound is
very charming.

History is tuli of accounts of the
fascipations Of women who were no lon
ger young. Thus, Helen of Troy. was
over forty when she perpetrated the
most famous elopement on record; ana
she could not have been very juvenlle
when the iil-f0rtune Of Paris restored
her to her husband, who Is reported to
have received her with her unquesti0n-
ing love and gratitude. Pericies we'd
ded the courtesan Aspasia when she was
thirty-six, and yet she afterward, Tor
thirty years or more, welded an undl-
minished reputation for beauty.
Cleopatra was past thirty when An
tony fell under her spell, which never
lessened until her death, nearly ten years
after; and Livia was thirty-three when
she won the heart of Augustus, over
whom she maintained her ascendency to
the last. Turning to modern history,
where il is possible to verify dates more
accurately, we have the extraordinary
Diane de Poitiers, who was thirty-six
when Henry IE--then Duke of Orleans,
and Just half her age-became attached
to her; and she was held as the first lady
and most beautiful woman ct court, up
to the period of the monarcRs death,
and of the accession to power OF Gather
line of Medecis. Anne of Austria was
lthirty-eight when she was described as
the handsOmest queen Of Europe, and
when Buckingham and Richelieu were
her Jealous admirers.
Ninon de PEnclos, the most celebrated
wit and beauty Of her day, was the idol
| of three generations OF the golden youth
of France, and she was seventy-two
when the Abbe de Bernis fell in love
with her. True 1t 10, that in the case ol
this lady a rare combination OF culture,
talent and personal attraction endowed
their possess0r, seemingly, with the gifts
of eternal youth. Blanca Capell0 was

Palestine.

Travelling in Palestine has its draw
backs as well as its attractions. The
roads around Jerusalem afe said to he
wretched at best, and, just now, are in
exceedingly bad repair, while predatory
Bedouin tribes, ra, ging Oh the outskirts
Of the travelled regions, make journeying
additionally insecure and disagreeable.
A late English consular report, which
gives these particulars, also adds some
Interesting details on the industrial pos
sibilities of Palestine. At present no
factories exist around Jerusalem. and
the employment Of the people is mainly
agricultural and pastoral; and yet sui
phur, bitumen and ro,k salt are to be
found on the shores of the Dead Sea, and
could be extracted with capital to start
mines and a good government to protect
them. The same good government would
bring under cultivation many vast and
fertile plains, which could support a
much more numerous population. The
population oil Jerusalem is 2l,000, OF
wnom about half are Jews and about u
quarter each are Moslems aud Chris
tlans. Within two years the Jewish
population has considerably increased.
Coiltrasted with the industrial dullness
of Jerusalem is the commercial activity
OF Damascus, regarding which anc thor
English consul reports that there is
much progress, especially in the manu-
faclure of silk tissues and mixed silk
and cotton fabrics. Domestic hardware
at Damascus is also largely replacing

tain interest to modern eople, now that
our ideas have ceased to be shocked by
the possibility OF the cedars OF Letanon
being turned into local teiegraph poles,
or the steam whistle being heard along
the valley OF the Jordan. Still, It is
rather the ancient than the modern Holy
land that the new expeditions are con.

A letter from Cairo, Egypt, is pub
llshed to-day, and announces the start
ing Of the Khedive's expedition for the
exploration ofthe Nile.
Two corps are on the march, the first
under command of Colonel Purdy and
Lieutenant Colonel Mason, both Ameri-
cans, and both Genera 8 in the Egyptian
army; the second under Colonel Colston
and Lieutenant Colonel Reed. both
Americans, and Generals in the Egypt
ian army.
The object is discover facilities for
opening shorter route between the Nile
and Danlour and to survey the country
west OF Lake Albert to the equator. Col.
Long, also an American, left Cairo some
time ago on o similar expedition for an
exploration Of Unganda.
The force was attacked by 400 natives
in canoes, and though much inferior In
numbers defeated them, killing 80 ma
tives. The war against the slave trade
proceeds vigorously. Many slavers have
been captured.
