THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON AND THE EMPRESS EUGENIE.  The correspondent of a contemporary, writing from Salzburg, Aug. 23, says—At eight this morning the Emperor and the Empress of the French started from Salzburg. The travellers were very exact, and a minute before the clock struck the band of the regiment of Yagers drawn up close to the waiting room played " Partant pour la Syrie," and at the same moment the two Empresses appeared, followed by the Emperors. The Empress Eugenie was in a plain black silk dress, with a small dark hat and short black veil just reaching to the chin. On nearing the carriage—" the terrace" above described —she flung back her veil and kissed the Empress Elizabeth on either cheek. They shook hands and bid each other adieu, and just as the Empress was about to step into the carriage they kissed each other again in the heartiest manner. In the whole demeanour of the Empress Eugenie is freshness, vivacity, and—•if it is not a mistake to say so of a lady—a thorough bonhoninzie. She is delightfully natural, and the grace of her manner is something rarely seen. On entering the open carriage she immediately turned and curtseyed to those she was leaving with a sweetness, and, at the same time, with a dignity which was quite beautiful to see. Her eyes were cast down as she bowed low, but round her mouth was an expression of gentle womanly tenderness, .which no one, I think, could see without being drawn irresistibly towards her. As she stood she bowed again to her host and hostess ; once more the inimitably-graceful, reverential curtsey, and the train bore her away.  It is not at all unlikely that those who read this may think it exaggeration, and call it fulsome flattery. No one, however, who was present and saw the charming woman will think so. On the contrary, to him what I have said will appear tame and insufficient, and the description most inadequate. But I cannot find the right words to make others understand the fulness of the charm she unconsciously exercised ; and it seems to me as if I were detracting from the engaging simplicity of every movement when I add adjective to adjective in trying to describe what, after all, is indescribable. You feel—you cannot but feel—the exquisite grace just as you cannot but feel in your whole heart and your whole body the freshness of the morning, but when you try to paint this freshness you become aware how futile, how ridiculously futile, all your efforts are. On parting the Emperor Francis Joseph kissed the hand of the Empress, and the Archduke Lewis Victor seemed to think that parting was so sweet a sorrow as to be willing to prolong it, and accordingly performed the operation of kissing bands several times over.  The two Emperors cordially shook hands, and Napoleon, mounting the steps of his carriage, stood with hat in hand, looking over tha balustrade. His face was as I ha I not seen it yet, lit up and bright, with an expression of cheerfulness and satisfaction. The imperturbability of the last days was gone. His face was all alive, and he smiled and leant over the carriage to chat with one of the secretaries of the French Embassy. Does not this sound odd—" Napoleon 111. leaning out of his carriage to have. a cheerful chat and a laugh with —" no matter whom ? It does, I confess, read as though it were apocryphal, but it is not so. Truth, you know, is often more surprising than fiction.  One of the secretaries of Legation brought her Majesty, just before the train left, a splendid nosegay ; and as she smiled her thanks I fib:tight such recognition worth more than the Cross of the Legion of Honour.  THE WIFE MURDER AT LElGH.—After the despatch of the Liverpool parcel on Monday, the jury found Henry Farringdon, charged with the murder of his wife at Leigh (Lancashire), guilty, but strongly recoin'mended him to mercy. The judge (Chief Justice 13ovill) said he would forward the' recommendation to the proper quarter, but would refrain for the present from expressing any opinion as to the character of the offence. sentence of death was then passed.  7-1 Tara '1... -- --(tirmixe ," ~.,L, .6,:-..evirtr,..,,
