The Latest French orOtehet.


Il is we'll known that the mission Of France is two
fold she is bound over-aWe. and to amuse. the
world. At the preseut moment Germany has Pu: it
out Of her power to ful6 the first named function,
bat she only with increased enthusiasm to her
performance OF the second duty. Just her genius
has suggested her the proprety Of reforming some
social customs. and among them particularly the
English habit Of shaking hands. To suppress this
custom society has been formed in Paris, and as
the Church has taken the matter up with a certain de-
gree Of energy it is expected that something will be
done. Precisely what the vieiOusness Of hand-shakng
may consist in Is not easy TO comprehend. but
tain Able Defouruy has been preaching aud writing
against it, and be stgmatEes it as disrespectu de-
bang and deserving Of reprobaton by ecclesiastical
authority a usage Z" which comes to Us FROM the
Freemasons." Whether the allusion to the Free
really conveys the animus Of the assault,
cannot say but the crusade IS decidedly funny, and
it involves grave principles. wish the "a Anti
shake-hlnds Society" better luck than their COM
patriots have had lately in contest Of more weight.
We may add that it Is proposed TO substitute for the
Odious practice Of shaking hands the old-fashioned
eouriiy bow, and pious salutation in Latin. When
the new custom is introduced il will be proper TO
address friend on meeting. with Ldudetar Jesus
CirisSs to which he ilIgravely respond, Ia sxeHla
sxealorSz and mutual OBLIGATION will be the happy
result.

supports about five thousand more. In the
carrying trade and the furnishing Of food to
plantations, and other branches Of industry de-
pendent upon the sugar and rice plantations

five thousand individuals. making total Of

Among the articles admitted free by the

We now import from the United States, with
our tariff Of ten pei. cent al rllo7sH,, goods to
the value Of over million dollars annually.
It Is not too much 80 expect that with the abOl-
ishing of the tariff the amount of imports from
that country would be doubled, thus giving it
a market to the value Of over two millions Of
dollars. Short-sighted politicians have brought
forward the loss of 100000 per annum from
the treasury Of the L $ as a sufficient reason
for the rejection OF the treaty but they have
no assurance that they would not by such re-
lection lose the whole of this revenue, for. re-

Benefits "a Reciprocity.

Il may perhaps appear to be superfuous
task to enumerate the advantages which viii
accrue in consequence of the treaty of reci-
prooity between this country and the United
States, but there are individuals who, actuated
by motives Of personal interest, or led astrsy
by ignorance, do not hesitate to assert that e II
is put up job, in the interest of the sugar
planters Of the Sandwich Islands, The idea
that our sugar-Planters alone will be benefited
by the treaty is almost too absurd TO excite a
smile Of contempt.
For about forty years the cultivation and
manufacture Of sugar has been carried on here
and immense sums of money have been ex-
pended in the business, but the percentage of
profits on these investments has not been suf-
fcient to furnish church mouse with his no
dicum Of crumbs Numerous planters have
lost fortunes, and nearly every plantation in
this Kingdom has changed hands several times;
but few indeed have been those who have been
enabled to retire with pleshoric purses. The
money investment has benefited the country
at large by giving employment 70 thousands Of
laborers, and to hundreds Of mechanics, arti-
sans, overseers, ETC., but the planters have, as
q rule, received little more than bare liv-
ing. We certainly hope and believe that this
hard-vorled class will receive their share Of
the benefits of the treaty, for no class Of men
has done OF Is doing more for the material ad-
vanoement Of the country, but every person
working on sugar plantation, as well as those
dependent on the actual workers for support,
Will participate in these benefits. Employees

comfortable dwellings,

LATE vTcR PRESIDENT OF rHR UNTTRDsTArEs

LATE VICE PRESIDENT OF THR UNITED STATES.
The death of this prominent statesman has
called out many obituary notices of him, all of
which serve to show how poor lad may by
industry and perseverance secure good edu-
cation and rise to eminence in the service of
his country.
The first book which he owned was New
Testament, given him on condition that he
would read it through, he did in seven
days, SO as TO pass creditable examination on
IL This was when he was eight years old, and
the book he always kept Nest Of his early
reading was done by freight, in the old
fashioned chimney corner.
When he was twenty-one years Of age, he
had read several hundred volumes Of biography
and general literature, besides the complete
set of the North 4uerio1N Rsris'c, as then ex-
listing. By the terms Of his apprenticeship,
when he came of age he was TO receive six
sheep, and yoke Of oxen. These he sold for
ssh. Up to this time he never had possessed
two dollars in money, and had never spent a
dollar in his life. he became a shoemaker
the most rapid and best workman in Natick,
and al one time, made forty-six pairs of shoes
without sleep. When twenty-five years old, he
entered an academy, and took short course Of
severe study. He was tcetotaler- Though
fond Of dining in company, he never tasted
wine, and whenever lie gave dinner himself,
no wine was ever placed on the table. The
last dinner he ever gave in Washington was in
honor of two distinguished Englishmen: and
while his table was loaded with all the deli
cacies Of the season. and surrounded by very
distinguished company, no beverage stronger
than coffee was offered. Throughout his long
life, he was consistent Christian, and his
eountrymeu loved him, trusted and honored
him. Would there were more statesmen as
pure, as honest and as consistent as HENRY
