VICTOR EMANUEL gives evidence of an antent to do for Home what NAPOLEON did for Paris. He proposes making it the great centre of European travel, both by restoring as much as possibly of its ancient glory, and giving it the life and gayety of a court together wilh the attractions of a wfll-ordered city.

HOWE, of Boston, who is rather bettor known to fame as the friend Greece and the husband of Mrs. JUI.IA WABD
HOWE than as one of the com
to
missioners appointed by the President visit and report upon the physical political condition of San Domingo, has published a letter detailing at great length his surprise at the opposition th President's annexation policy still en counters. He is made particularly unhappy by the apathy with which the report of the Commission was received, not hesitating to say that it has fallen dead upon the mind of the country. The Philadelphia "Inquirer" suggests that Commissioner HOWE forgets apparently that there were a number of reports regarding the condition of San Domingo presented to the public long before that of the Commission was given general circulation. These reports were univer sally less rose-colored than the last one and in very many instances they were opposed both in their facts and concln Bions to the account of the Government Commissioners. They were, moreover written clearly and concisely, by men large experience and culture connected with the American press, who went out to San Domingo in the interests of the public whose servants they were, and having no other object to serve they were disinterested witnesses and historians, spying out the land and reluming fair and unprejudiced accounts thereof.

The Progress of the Negro. No candid person in the South will de ny that the general experience of the negro since emancipation has been in progress that in nearly every respect of his life he exhibits some improvement from that date. Southern men are not very ready to advertise this to the world they would probably confess it with reluctance to a Northern commission of inquiry but in private conversations among them Belves, where no pride of controversy in terposes, they freely admit it and wonder at it. The negro moves. He is showing the greatest eagerness for knowledge and education attested by the fact, for which examination is challenged, that in the free schools of the South, where he has equal admission, there are more black children than white ones in proportion to the population of each race in the given community. So far from becoming the idle vagabond that the pes Bimist theorizers would have him after emancipation, he is exemplarily industrious attested by the fact that to-day the negro represents nearly all the labor of the South, and admitting this test*, that of per sons in equal condition of poverty and of necessity of' work, there are far more poor whites than negroes who are idle in the South. Of the vices that were to assail and destroy the negro in his new estate of freedom there are no proofs quite the contrary. The terrible vice of intemperance, which has been the usual scourge of weak races, and the almost unfailing incident of a precocious civilization, is comparatively uuknown among the Southern freedmen. So far from being improvident, the wonder is how the negro economizes, gets so many good clothes and real cgmforts out of his very scanty wages. As a voter he has shown a discretion and independence that have nonplussed the wisest of our politicians. There were white wiseacres who, some time ago, supposed that the negro's vote might be procured by the merest solicitation, a mere wink from his employer and a common joke in the Southon theFifteenthAmendmentwas that the disfranchised white man might buy Borne cheap old negro to do his voting for him. Never was such disappointment. The spectacle has not been uncommon in the South of a negro who paid a deference to the white man scarcely less than he had shown in the days of slavery, who possibly yet said "Mas'r," who did his work in all humility and with all subjection, yet going openly to the polls and casting his vote there against the party of his employer. Such an instance of selfrespect and moral courage is to be admired even by those against whom it acts. —"The Romance of the negro" in Octofrcr Qalaxy
Party Enthusiasm.
From the Eock Island (111.) Union.] Horace Greeley proclaims that there is no enthusiasm among the people in favor of Grant for re-election, which is true in the popular sense of the word. But it is equally true that there's no enthusiasm for Horace, nor for any other possible candidate. The day for violent enthusiasm over public men closed with the few years that succeeded the war. Then the kighly-wrought feelings of the people found expression in noisy demonstrations over those who had distinguished themselves in behalf of their country. But the calm of a thoughtful judgment has succeeded. People now look at public matters and men more philosophically and logically. They judge their officers by their present acts rather than by their past record. If these bear close scrutiny, the conviction sinks deep into the mind and will find quiet expression at the bal-lot-box not in noisy rant and hurrah of a mass meeting.
A gentleman once met a very quiet newsboy selling the New York "Tribune." "Is there any news?" asked the gentleman. "Lot's o' news," answered the boy, "but nothin' to holler."
It is so with Grant's administration. Although it has accomplished all and more than the people expected, there is little in it to "holler" or enthuse the masses. The impression it has made on the people is a deep, well-settled conviction that Grant has made the country a good President—the best for the time— and one whose term should not be allowed to expire at this juncture. "Ihe debt has been diminished
Taxation has been reduced The Union has bten restored ,i Foreign difficulties have been settled and the Government was never so respected abroad nor so strong at home."

It is said that he has two or three wives in Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis, Pittsburgh and other cities. In New York two have turned up, and these, sympathizing with each other, and wroth at the delinquent John, conspired to send him to Sing Sing.
Both visited Jefferson Market on Tuesday and told their stories to Justice fthandley, who ordered the arrest of Kelly. The officers nabbed John yesterday morning at Harry Hill's.

Carrying tho Mails in 1825At the foot of Rivington street, in the year 1825, was an important spot of high ground, known as "Manhattan Island"— a place where were located the shipyards among them the large one belonging Henry Eckford. The proprietors of thi yards had an extensive correspondence with the South, especially with Georgia and Florida, from which States they obtained their fat pine and live oak used in ship building. Mr. Charles Forrester, more than fprty years an employe ot the postoffice, and who still performs his daily and arduous duties, then a boy, lived in the suburbs, and he would bring up the letters directed to these ship builders, carry them across the wet meadows that lined the eastern side of the island, and deliver them to their owners.
The year 1825 was made memorable by the fact that Colonel Beeside obtained the contract to carry the mails from Bos ton to New York, the route being over the old post-road. Reeside's stages were showy, drawn by four blooded Virginia horses, and driven by the most accomplised "Jehus."
On pleasant summer afternoons the people confined to the lower part of the island would purposely walk up the Bowery to see the "Boston mail" come in. Some time before the Vehicle reached the old hay-scales, just where the Cooper Institute now stands, the driver would herald his approach by a melodious winding of his horn then, laying aside this vulgar instrument, he would assume his legitimate septre, the whip, which he would harmlessly crack over the heads of his spirited steeds with a noise that, on a clear day, could be "heard a mile
On Saturdays the jolly school boys and girls would gather together under the tall poplars and button-wood trees, and, as the Btage dashed along, they would wave their,hands as a welcome, and the most venturesome would catch hold of the straps, and thus have the glory of riding a few yards under the overhanging "boot." The characteristic gamins of that period would evince their enthusiasm by following the coach and rollicking in the dust of its revolving wheels: would cheer it and its passengors to the end of the route and especially was this the case when the driver would make purposely abortive attempts to drive these human flies away with his whip, or a jocose passenger would bandy w't with the boys, and make them crazy with delight by the scattering of a few pennies in the road.
In the winter these gay coaches were lut aside, and in their place was a huge ox on wheels,the combination not unlike a hearse, in the heart of which was de posited the load. The practice then w?s to abandon passengers, when the roads were heavy from mud and rain, and car ry the mails but nowadays, if fhe reports from many of the existing stage routes be true, under unfavorable circumstances the drivers abandon the mails to carry the passengers. Amos Kendall, the indefatigable Postmaster General, by his industry and goood management, reduced the carrying time from New York to New Orleans from sixteen to seven days. The event was celebrated at the Merchants'£xchange and the postoffice by the raising of the national standard, and there was a general rejoicing in Wall Street. Jimmy Mower had his joke by asserting that all newspapers delivered at the office from New Orleans less than sixteen days old were printed at the "Advertiser" office.—From "The New York Postoffice," by T. B, THORPE, in Warper's Magazine/or October.
IT
IS man's reason which gives to the present living world all that it has of meaning and of unity. The forms of beauty and grandeur which matter puts on are only the clothing furnished by mind. The Alps and Andes are but millions of atoms till thought combines them, and stamps on them the conception of the everlasting hills. Niagara is a gush of waterdrops till the soul puts into it that sweep of resistless power which the beholder feels. The ocean, wave behind wave, is only great when the spirit has breathed into it the idea of immensity. If we analyze our owd[ 1 feelings we shall find thought meets us wherever we turn. The real grandeur of the world is in the soul which looks on it, which sees some conception of its own reflected from the mirror around it—for mind is not qply living but life-living, and has received from its Maker a portion of his own creative power. It breathes into dead matter the breath of life, and 'it becomes a living BOUI."
THE Jewish year begins on Friday evening, September 15th, the year 5,632. Our Christian era is merely a sapling by the side of the venerable trunk out of wkich it springs, and from whose roots it has drawn a large share of its sap. The old trunk is sadly broken and scattered, but has thrifty branches still yet its scathed and shattered condition furnishes no excuse for the temper with which it has been assailed by sects which are mere twigs of yesterday in comparison with its venerable age and stubborn tenacity of life. Long may it flourish, and be ever green.—QoldtnAge. -3

Fashionable Ladies ot Byron's Time.
Of the high-born dame-i and their daughters who sunned their beautiful faces, bonnets, symmetrical shoulders and busts, artistic and otherwise, it will be scarcely necessary to say that many of them preferred to drive in open phaetons, landaus, and landau lets. Of their costumes the present writer Is not competent to speak in appropriate terms, but he is quite sure that nothing so monstrous, ngly, and ridiculous as the bewigged and bewitched head-dresses of the present day (at least in the London stieets and public places) was ever seen in the" fashionable localities of the day we ar6 now- reviewing.. In one rcpect, however, the 1 tume certainly did surpass all that 1 pr$&nt seen either abroad, or in theatres and ball-rooms. But this specialty was reserved for the evening full dress, concerning which the le3s we say -the more characteristic will be the imaginings. An exquisite illustration, however, ol village innocence on this subject mnst not be omitted,
A certain fashionable lady, whose lovely daughters were regarded as the most el egant belles of the season, having become disgusted with the arrogance^ lies, neglect and passive insolence of their uppier footman, suddenly discharged the powdered personage, and imported a man from the country, who had been strongly recommended to them for his attentive and respectful behavior, and invariable truthfulness. On the third day his inauguration, the poet Moore, who was very intimate wit 1 the family, made a "call" some quarter of an hotlr later than his dining imitation warranted "Are Lady B—- and the Misses at home?" inquired Moore. The new footman from the country eyfsd the poet with a scrutinizing gaze—then looked behind apprehensively. The question being repeated, he took a step iofward, and replied, in a suppressed torle, "They told me to say they were oat but they're in. They're gone up stairs to strip for dinner."
If. the style of dress thus indicated among ladies of the highest circles "left little mystery," as Lord Byron said, for the sacred rights of Hymen, the example set by them was sure to bo followed by nearly all who could afford it and' we cannot, therefore, be surprised if some things were adopted in the wors* manner, and carried to exaggeration by the demi monde. At this period the great theatres of Drury Lane and Covent Garden, hav ing a patent monopoly of Shakespeare, and the higher class of dramas, had large saloons, with a refreshment bar at one end,where there was a crowded promenade between each, and more particularly after the first piece, in which the scant and en franchised draperies of improvised ner eids and hamadryads were classical only in name, and would not be tolerated now even upon our present stage, which saving something.—From "By-gone Celebrities of Bond Street, London," by B.

Walter Scott's Last Year 1
Even now, when he has been so long at rest, and a new generation has arisen and new fames fill the world, it is impos sible to think of the tragedy of Scott's last years without a poignant and person al sorrow as over the fate of a dear friend, Suddenly the misfortunes came—the enormous losses and debts—and he put the great heart and the great shoulders to the tremendous struggle. The benefident genius that had so long prayed only to delight the fascinated world was in a mo ment desperately wrestling with death for honor and existence. He owed nearly six hundred thousand dollars and of this vast sum, by strenuous and relentless toil breaking his heart and consuming his brain, he paid within four years consider ably more than half. Alas!, he paid with his life and with his mind. The cloud fell thicker and more heavily. His wife died everything failed but his own heroism, and the love and pity of mankind There are glimpses in the memoire of that time—glimpses inexpressively sad—of the dying man in Italy, at Naples, upon the Champagna. It is only the shad ow of the stalwart Scoot. He sits for hours gazing upon the sea he moves restlessl/about he repeats in atone so mourn fulihat the heart breaks to hear, snatches of the old, old ballads that his youth loved and which are dear to all men who speal his language because he 'loved them Then he comes home to die. Gentle as a child, he has been unspoiled by the flattery of a world. Through the mist of the fast-fading mind looks out that true and tender manhood which is forever memorable. "Be a good man, my dear," he whispers to his son-in-law, Lockhart, and on a soft September afternoon, thirty-nine years ago, with all the windows wide open, and the gentle ripple of the Tweed murmuring upon the air, while his chil dren knelt aroUnd the bed, Walter Scott died/ "and his eldest son kissed and closed his eyes."
In his case that prayer which we quoted of one of his successors was fulfilled— May love and truth guide such a man lways!" For of any man who ever held so large a place in the heart of his contemporaries and of their children, and who had so great a power, could it be more truly said than of Sir Walter, that he vtas guided always by loVe and truth? —EDJTOB'8
EASY CHAIR, in Harper's
Magazine for October, htm v'
IN the fourteenth century the people had the habit of stopping their preacher in his discourse with questions in regard tothetopio which he was treating, just as, in our day, the stump speaker is questioned by some among his auditors Nicholas of Strasburg was one day telling the story of Dives and Lazarus in the pulpit, when one of his audience asks aim: "Sir, how had Lazarus a finger and the rich man a tongue, and a spirit has neither flesh nor bones?" "That," rereplies Nicholas, "I will tell you. It is a spiritual power in men that gives all ily powers their activity. This it is that jjives the eye sight, and the ear hearing, and the month speech, and the senses their work and were this power to leave the man, then he would neither see, nor hear, nor speak. Just as we see is the case with man to-day he lives, and sees and hears well, and walks well and were he to die to-morrow he would do nothing of these things, and yet he has the same eyes that he had before, and the same ears, and the same mouth, and all the limbs that he had before. Whence comes that? Because the spiritual power is away, and has with it that wherewith it had all this. And even thus Lazarus had a finger and the rich man a tongue. That was the spiritual power which was in the tongue, which lives forever in eternal pain or in eternal joy. Even so is it with all the senses." Nicholas was ingenious, if not satisfactory. Sweedenborg made a similar explanation, only carried to a higher philosophy, at a later date.
THE condemnation by an evangelical newspaper, of the beautiful hymn, "Nearer my God to Thee," because there is no recognition of Christ in it, is paralleled by the condemnation that Anthony Arnaud, an eminent theologian of his age, cast against an excellent and comprehensive prayer that Leibnitz repeated in his presence. "That," said the evangelical divine, "is good for nothing—there is no mention of our Lord Jesus Christ in it," 'Tor the moment," says Leibnitz,
(1was
a little startled by so severe and unexpected a criticism. But I replied, 'For this reason must our Lord's prayer and all the petitions which occur in the Acta and Apostles, be good for nothing for in these prayers no mention is made of Christ or of the Trinity.' Thereupon," continues Leibnitz, "my good fellow was thrown into confusion, and we weni out for a moment to take breath." The spir«
itual sympathies of some over-orthodox persons are more ready to respond to the name, than they are to the spirit of Christ. —Qoltkn Age.
