MONARCHIsT MANIFESTO.
The Count of Paris Calls Upon His
AdherentS.

PARIS, March 27.-The count of Paris
has sent out circular letter to mon
arehist committees throughout France.
In it he says substantially:
The present moment is most critical.
Nhe chamber has lost credit throughout
the country. The government has no
courage to act against the socialists. 1t
is poWeIleSS at home and devoid of au
thOrity abroad. The time has come for
all right-minded men to unite i'll
supreme effort to restore the
honor of France. The monarchists
must not repudiate any political alliance
required by the interest of the nation
and for the defense of religious liberty,
but at the same time they must let
France understand that the monarchy
alone can give to her strong and stable
government, whose sole object would be
the public welfare. Nv son seconds me
in trying to realize this object. We
shall spare no efforts to place France
upon firmer foundation"

into small pieces by great shears that clip

by more ceremony than has usually obtained
in such cases, the method pursued being with
out precedent. The custom prevailing hereto
fore has been for the newly-appointed Cabinet
officers to be sworn in at the Department over
which they are to preside. without any formal
ity whatever, some official of the Department
administering the oath. One of the clerks in
the Postoflice Department. has administered
the oath to every Postmaster General for many
decades.
Many of the retiring Cabinet officers took
leave of the employees on Monday afternoon,
March 6. Secretary Foster of the Treasury,
was presented with set of engrossed resolu.

SAKE The Colonel.
uonisrine Co..r.c.. Lo,n,t.tl.

4 reporter once spent three days in the
early Summer at the Rockbridge Alum Springs
during Col. Thomas Peyton's administration,
and those three days will always be re-
WONDERED as the pleasautest that he ever
experienced. The Colonel talked necessarily.
and was always surrounded by group OF
eager listeners.
One of the Colonel's stories concerned Col.
Blank, who commanded dasbing Virginia
regiment in A. P. Hills Corps On one occa-
sion this particular regiment had been de.
tached on special duty, and was some distance
away from the main body of Lees army and
without support
One day the command was i'll camp on the
bank of small stream, q little too deep, how
ever, to ford. The Colonel's tent, with those of
one OF the companies was on the side OF the
stream away from the enemy, who were known
to be not far off The other companies were on
the enemy's side of the creek which was
spanned by small wooden bridge.
During the day pickets brought in news that
the Federals had begun rapid advance in
force, and wonld soon be upon them. There
was considerable CONSERVATION, and tho Cap.
tains of the companies on the enemy's side of
the stream were preparing to cross it to the
other side, when, to their surprise, they saw
some of their own men attack the bridge with
axes. In all haste they ordered the work to be
stopped, and were talking with the workmen
when Col. Blank rode up to the opposite side of
the stream in a great rage.
Cut down that bridget" he ordered, in
tones of thunder.
But, Colonel "-one of the subordinate off,
GERS interposed.
Never mind, sir" shouted the Colonel red
in the face with wrath. " Never mind, sir! L
know what l am doing! Tho enemy is COM
ing, sir, and by destroying the bridge | will be
able to retire in good order"
But, Colonel, what will become Of the reg-
ment?" asked another Captain.
"Oh,-the regiment" yelled the Colonel.
"What does it matter about the regiment, any
way? The Colonel must be saved, sir. Cut
down the bridge"
But the other officers took the matter into
their own hands, and the bridge remained in
tact until the last Confederate soldier had
crossed. and then it was cut down. The enemy
soon came up, but were checked long enough
at the stream to allow Col. Blank and his regi-
ment 10 regain the main army.

may again be appointed to office recalls to the
