her Intervention at the Vactican might
now be useful. Cardinal Bonnechose,
the most Bonapartist member of the
French episcopacy. has preceded the
widow of Napoleon III, to smooth
away the difficulties of which she has
been advised.
There is one person who at this juno
ture demands our heartfelt sympathy.
the Duchess of Edinburgh. She is now
at Malta with her husband, who is in
command of ship that. it is not i'm
probable, may have to fight one of her
fathers ships. Her position is much
more painful than that of the Princess
of Wales in 1864, because it was cersain
then that if England went to war at all
it would not be against. hut for Den
mark. Now if England has to fight. it
will be against not for Russia. This is
very sad contingency.
The following is fashionable womans
prayer:
Strengthen my husband and may
his faith and hiS money hold out to the
last?
Draw the lambs wool of unsuspicions
twilight over his eyes. that my firta-
tions may look to him like victories,
and that my bills may strengthen his
pride in me.
Bless, O Fortune, my crimps, rats.
and frizzles, and let thy glory shine on
my paint and powder.
Enable the poor to shift for them-
selves and save me from all missionary
beggars.
Shed the light of thy countenance on
my camels hair shawl. my lavender
silk, my point lace, and my necklace, of
diamonds, and keep the moth out of my
sable, beseech thee, 0 Fortune!
When walk out before the gaze of
vulgar men, regulate my wiggle and add
new grace to my gait.
When l bow myself to worship. grant
that may do it with ravishing elegance
and preserve unto the last the lily white
of my flesh, and the taper of my
fingers.
Destroy mine enemies with the gall
of jealousy, and eat up with the teeth
of envy all those who gaze upon my
style.
Save me from wrinkles and foster my
plumpness.
Fill! both my eyes, 0 Fortune, with
the planitive poison of imitation, that l
may lay out my victims-the men-as
numb as images craven.
Let the lily and the rose strive togeth-
er IN my cheek, and may my neck swim
like a goose on the bosom of crystal
water.
Enable me, O Fortune, to wear shoes
little smaller, and save me from all
corns and bunions.
Bless Fanny, my lspdog. and rain
down hailstones of destruction upon
those who shall hurt hair of Hector.
my kitten.
Smile, O Fortune, most sweely upon
Dick. my canary. and watch over with
the fondness of a ghost my two lily
white mice with red eyes"

Antiquity Of Man.

A correspondent writes to the London
Times" Mr.. Sydney B. T. Skertchley, Of
her majesty's geological survey. who is sta
toned at Brandon, Suffolk, has recently
discovered some flint implements in that
neighborhood, In beds formed before the
close of the glacial period. One was picked
out of the beds in pit at Culford, Suffolk,
and two others were dug out Of like beds in
pit at Botany. on the Norfolk side Of
Brandon. 1t was not till Mr.. Skertchly
himself found another implement at Gull
ford, and saw the boulder of clay from
" hich he extracted it, that the Importance
Df the discovery dawned upon him. Along
side the Culford implement, he found de-
post of broken and mammalian bones and
some fresh water shells. These bones were
in circumscribed area. A jawbone con.
tanning teeth had been forwarded to Lon
don to be examined.
Underneath the bones the clay was found
to be burned. Mr.. Skertchley's explana
tion is that we have here preserved the one
solitary instance in the whole world of a
camping ground of The paleolithic period
These remains we're thus far earlier thar
anything previously discovered. Tracing
the boulder clay and the beds beneath across
the country, he saw that the implements
found at Botany bay were Of the same age
The men who lived before the boulder clay
appeared to him to be more intimately con
nected in time with the men Of the paleo-
lit hic gravels lying upon the boulder clay
than were the latter with the men OF the Ne
olithic age, who scooped out those ancient
flint mines near Brandon called "Grimet
Graves"

The Next Prest dent.

The Washington "star" has deliberately
and with malice aforethought revived the
"4th OF March" controversy in the follow.
ing paragraph: The presiding officer of the
Senate, whoever ne may be, on the 4th of
March next, will have the honor Of acting
as President for the thin space of twelve
hours, viz, from 1s NJ. on March 4th, when
General Grant ceases to be President, until
~ NJ. on the day following. This honor
will PROBABLY fall on Senator Ferry, Presi-
dent pro tempore of the Senate, should he
be reelected to the Senate (bis term ex-
pires March Sd next), and incase he should
be CONTINUED as presiding officer of the
Senate. The latter body at its last session
adopted resolutions declaring Mr.. Ferry
President pro tempore, but asserting the
power of the Senate TO change its presiding
officer whenever it chooses to do so. Mr..
Ferry, it is understood, will be returned to
the Senate: whether he will be continued
as presid ing officer, however, remains to be
seen.
A correspondent of the "star,V who has
been delving into the mysteries of the cal
endar, comforts us with the assurance that
after next year Inauguration day will not
fall on Sunday until the year 1917, period
of forty years; after that it will occur reg
ulary every twenty eight years until the
year 20S5, when period OF forty years will
again intervene.

OUR NEXT SHERIFF.

The Importance of entrenching our par

no Democrat who is true to bis party can
for moment give vote to the Republi.

is Of the party, who in the language of the
clergy and laity Of South Carolina, are
degrading the State to barbarism that the
party ofwhich he is a member is chargeable
with the famine, poverty, misery and mis-
rule which affects the people of the whole
land. A vote cast for Harry McMullen, lis

is not to be punished; that he who upheld

assaults upon freedom is to be rewarded

county. IF the freemen ofDelaware, of Della.

Legislators, Levy Court men, &c. How
