frcscilt wnclition of France.

The ll»-llouiitg letter .roiit Paris of August
Ifltlt, ptiblislted iii a late tiiiinber ofthe N. Y
Spectator, contains much interesting informa-
tion relative to the present state of France.

I,_i(§regard to its political situation. France
5* U)W in a very interesting state. There are
tbree parties ;first, the ultras, who wish every
thing restoredjust as it was before the revolii
tion. the king despotic, the cltarter abolislii-cl.
the old noblesse reinstated, &Lc.; second, the
ministerial party, who wish things to remaii.
much as they are, taking care, however, to
strengthen the crown as tiiiicli its possibie,atiil
to manage the elections; and third, the liber
als, who are striving for it still itiore popiilai
form, or at least a more popular adtitioistrrr
tration of government. In the chambers. the
extremes, i. e. the tiltras and the liberals, act
together against the minister, tho’ at sword’s
point or) all other topics. -

Of the Chambers. the House of Peers is
lunch the lt‘.0St independent. The election
ofa great portion of the chamber of Deputies
is directly controlled by the government, who
do not spare the exertions of their power in
thi. respect, and tlierefoie always have a ma-
jority. This is not the casein the other chain-
éier, where the gtrat question of restoring the
rigliis of pritnogenititre, which the king htzs -
sell'itti.§_'ed in his speech, was nCga\lV(‘.(l. ()i
the p’ ople ‘d’. large the great body, especially
ofthe young itien, are decidedly liberal, with-
oui knowing ptobaltly, very definitively, what
sort rifprivileges they would wish to have.

The preseiii Royal faintly have no liolil on
the affections oi the people. The king is a
geotleiiiair in his nmitners; but is not distin-
guished for intellect or taste. His lii'otlier,ilie
late kiiig. was a tnair ofletters and an iicco.-i —
pit-',ll6(l scholar, ifiioi a statesman. Charles
K was wild and exceedingly dissipated in his
youth; and now in his rnaturcr age has passett
to the opposite extreme, and beeuine a devo-
tee. ‘ lrieiiig thus open to the iirfluetice ofthe
priests, he is viewed with great distrust by the
body ofthe iiaiives. In his private cliarai-.ter
he is now considered as very regular, and per-
haps itreproachable ; as are also the Duke $1.
D|lCl|t‘SS of :\ll£’.Ul|l9‘-'-C- The Duke resetti-
bles his lather in appearance and piirbably in

the character ul his mind. The young Duiie
of Bordeaiix is a promising child ol iteariy six
years old. He is the last of the Boirrbo.is.—-
',i'he next liL‘ll‘ in France is tlieDiil.i- of Or-

leans ; who is a man of sound jiiilgii.-em and
l_.',Y‘:n' lrrnlr-it_i of character. He has several
sons. The pieseiitf-amily, it may be said, at»

—Ii'et the dread of revoliiticns, of which the
French have hail so"'tiiuch and so sad experi-*
eiice, will probably induce the people to suffer
in a great extent. rather than have recourse to
s_'tich a remedy.

, The great alarm at present is the increasing
powe. and exertions nftliepriests, and the an
ttcipaled return of the Jesu.ll5- The P""5!5
are undoubtedly straining every» nerve to re-
cover their ancient standing; all‘! ‘he °!“”a°'
lei ofthe king is thought to afford too miicl.
reason to fear that they will be successful.-—.
Tlie netvspapers are filled witlrdisctlssions 0|!
this topic, and tl.-e liberal journals do not fear
to speak out in the plainesl and most pointed
tuanner; attd in this they are st-istoiiied by
public opinion. Last winter the King’s Ad-
vocate prosecuted some of them for speaking
against religion. The defettce was, that they
hail siiokeirotily of the Jesuits, and that this
was not an attack on religion. The trial ex-
cited very great interest», and all the avenues
of the Court were thrnnged several lionrs be
fore the Jiidges took their seats. The defend-
ants were iicqtiiitcd, and the decision was re-
ceived with liuzzas by the crowd. and with
mztliitsiastii ilirotigliotit France. This was
criiisitlei-eil, attdjitstly, as zi triumph over the
ininistty.

The priests -have succeeded in getting tlle
instriiction oftlte young under their coiitroul;
and it is this control which is most to be fear
ed. The Bishop of Hertiiopolis is at the
head of the system of,cducation, and no per-
soti is allowed to instruct a school without a
lici-iise. The only means to cotintieract these
efforts. and iitilei-d to operate beneficially on
the mass of the French tiation, is through ilic
llwrlllllll of the puss. This is felt by the lib
emis, and tliey_:ii'e c.ii'ctilatiiig with great ca
gerness, tracts, boolta. periodical works, 81.6.
all tending to diffuse iiifortiiatioii, and aid =liir
plugress ufliberal opinions. Vv'h:it will be the
itlttrnaie success, time only cati detcrttiitte. It
is the great strrigglc renewed between the
(‘atliiilics and the Rcforriiers, between ignor-
.tiii-.eaitil iiitelligeuct-, lwtweeii light and dark
tress. The best tiiloriiieil li- pt: siiotigly, but

t;.e last lrrlfceitiiiry. it is hardly too lunch to
;.rophc.cy, that in fifty years inure. Ifratice
will he as free as Enlglillltl is now. The great
().!is'li|Clf3 tofroetloiti is the want of moral priit-
('l|)l8 in the people-—of that virtue without
whicli a republic cannot long subsist.

The following is extracted from one ofthe
" I_.t3llel'5 from Geritiaoy,"’ published in the
Utictt Setititiel:

" My font pilgriniiige gave me an opportu-
nity of becoming attiiiiaititetl zvith some nfthi=
ineans to which some ofilie inliabitanis of
most ofthe less proiliictivi- parts of Gertnaiiy
-in-. obllgetl to resort, to procure subsistence.-
A coiiipaiiy of ten or twelve from the dithe-
door of I\la<saii,(it is the principal employ-
iueiit ofthzrl poor,_ district,) were following: a
cart l()‘rltI('(I with t'varcs, from the potteries of
Hesse :‘.lut'boroiigh, Wllltfll were dcstliicd to
Haitibtirg. a distance of iiearly two liuiitlred
iiitles, there to be excliangcd for goods ‘\'I=lt.‘ii
these poor people were to retail through dif
ferent sections ofthe country, on tl-.ei"r return.
Half ofthis coiitpany were women, dressed
in the peculiar costtiiite of that district, the
petttcoats reacliing not half way down. frniii
the knee. rind the whole dress so fastened a-
bout the waist, that llltf figure had the appear-
ance oftwo sugar loves, placed one on the
other, the ripper one being inverted. They
carrieti their b.iskels on their heads, and pre
sented alto:.:ctttei- a very singular appearaiioo.
The zivcrage pay ofthe men and women was
scarcely three quarters ofa dollar a week, and
_\7t‘‘ this rnust be a protligioiisly hard serv-co.
But the followitig instance. which occurred
the next day, seems ofa still harder character.
It was that ofa mitlflle aged woman from the
I-larz. the seal ofthe great iron works of the
country, who was czirryinig about nails to sell
by the potttid. Tiaese she carried about on
her shoulders in a large basket. containing also
tier pi-ovisioiis, the whole weighing at first
eighty pounds, and still after travelling tliirtv
or thirty-five miles, the welgllt was but half"
iliitiintsheil. This she did every two or three
weeks,aiiit itconiitiouly took lter a week to
dispose of her stock.. She eztriied about a six-
pI’.llC6 per day; the faintly at liotne lived
chiefly uit potatoes, bill when travelling slte
tr.~_~atvd herself to a little rye bread. This is
probably it fair specimen ofilie mode ofliving
ofa tiiajority of the large population of thi-
Hzirtz. Wekuow in otir country nothing of
poverty and liardsliip but the name.”
W/itspeiiizg Gallery -—-It appears by a cotii
itrunicaiion in the National Intelligent.-er‘.
signed by Mr. Aflzllilf J. Saitsbtiry, that the ro-
tuivla ofthe Capitol at VVashiiigtoii City, is
fouiid to possess the capacity of conducting
the least audible whispers in the satire man-
ner as the famous gallery ofSt.P_'aul’s Church,
London. The discovery was iucrely acct
dental. The following piirtictilars are given :
On enteriiig the B.otiiuda, I observed a
tvorltitian engaged in painting a part ofthe
Cll'ClllEll‘ wall above the cornice, andjust below
the dome. The thoiight occtirred to tire, that
ifanolher pi-rsou should place liiiiiself at a
potitt. imiiteiliately opposite, it was possible
they iuight hear each oilier’s whispers, ifut-
tcred close to the wall. Accordiiigly, [moun-
ted the foritiidable ladder which led totiiis
height, and walking round on the top of the
cornice, placed tnyselfjttst opposite to the
painter, wliorii Iliad apprised ofiny design.-
He placed his ear against the wall, atid I ap-
plied my inotitli very closely to it, and asltml
in a loud whisper, “ canyon hear what I say?"

' It is not without hesitation, that we“‘lia‘-'e
admitted the original article headed “ xiecond
Sight and Cliariiis.” We/ourselves possess
entire disbelief in either of these attributes.-
But we equally disbelive in many other things
which we allow to be advocated and recom-
tiiciided by our correspondents : and upon re-
flection, do not regard that consideration as
siiflicieiit to justify the exclusion from our col-
iiiiins of an article which will lll[Cl'8Sl the eu-
riosity of at least a portion of our f63deT5-—'
The article is moreover from a Minister ofthe
Gospel, who pledges his character for its ve-
racity. He says that he hiitisell oticc tlotlblefl
the reality ofthese things, but is now “ lull)’
convinced,” seeing what these men can do.-
For ourselves, we should not believe our eyes
or cars to stroll a case. -

SECOND SIGHT AND CHARMS.
Haiiipsliire C0‘Ll.lll_l/, Va. 18216-

These have generally been classed aiiioug
aiitiqttaied superstitions, iiotwitlislandtng the
well attested cases which come under the pur-
view ot’ history. The Norlli ofScoll1.Ind has
been faiuotis for its sects. The Jewish INIHOH
once possessed tliein, as we learn H211] sacred
writ: they are still common aiiiong -the N0!‘-
tltern Itidiaus. and evbn in our own country I
know instances ofthruii, though very rztre.

In this cottiity,oii North Iiiver, there are
two reitiarltableinstances of men possessing
the gift ol second sight. together with a faculty
(ll cIiariniiig'. The one is a white ntati ofthe
lliltlll' or George ta‘/aarfl, the other «I Df-’lé"‘-’ 03!’

'rgnor.iitt. Shard‘, who acts as it liicquey 0!‘

side of the river to hint, can readily inform

ieil——-and, what is more s'.range, give a tolera-
blr- accnitnt ofcoiiveisatititis which pass at it

He is \Vt‘lt rewarded for the services he reit-
dcis M r. [-1. the Sheriff. and this li-as IIHILII:

the two) frequently gratifying 5ll'Zll"gf‘.l . with

seldotii now do, unless ordcieit by M r. H. who
takes care of ltiiii, (for he is too lunch of an
idiot to take care of himself.) ,

by both these inert as it respects cIi_arms.——

lar iiioiieti round tlteiii—-arid I have known
Phil. to cure the most obstinate opliiitliay,
iiiizicly by blowing his breath in the 'pttlient’s
e._ve. Tltis is strange, but trite, and nothing
more woiiiieiiul than the fasciiiziiioii of ser-
peiiis, or tllesubiriersiotiofswallows. :.

These men cannot be” inipirsiors: for tttey
are too ignoraiit to carry oua deceptioii. Tire
neighbors f..r miles artiiiiiii can attest! to their
igiiziraiiee, as well asI1it:il' skill in the hidden
iiitsii iy oi‘ U()l)_illf.tIl0II.‘ I

When M r. H. los.--.s, or cannot find a horse,
he tiiiitiediatcly applies to Shartf, who imme-
ili..-it-iy puts his right hand ui=.fore his eyes—-
pattses for a few moments, their desr_-ribos thi:
ideitlic.il place where the beast is, at that
time. It is stitnethiiig ctirioiis that he caiinot
see in this way by applying the left hand to
the eyes. Frotii ‘he right hand he has lost
the tliuiiib—-wheit this accident took place, it
greatly iinproved his occult vision.

It would be too tedious to go into full de-
tails of the wonderful gifts oftliese two men.
though I as fully believ. that they possess the
so-‘C()ll(l sight as I believe Paris in France, or
London in England.

H‘orscs.—-Horses whose labor is severe, are
utten injured by being S[llllB:5 in water, par-
ticulaily when they are allowed it large qtt-.nt-
tily offooil. It is acointnoti practice with
wagoiiers, when their horses come in from it
long fatiguing journey, their strength almost
exliziiisteit by lung cotitiiiiicrl exertion and
swe lung, to offer‘ tltein itiitiiediutely an tiuliin
ited qllllllllly offood, aitd very little, rind iiiost
i-our-nonly not a drop, of water. Under sitcli
circiiiiistai.-ces the SlUtni.\".ll is “UL able to di-
.-iest the l'on.'l taken in, and it is probable that
the staggers are sometimes the coitsequeitce
ofsucli niztiiagetnent. Witch :1 horse comes
from it long journey, he should always be =it'-
lowed a little water before he is fed. It isle-
cotiiitieiide ' to perinii a horse to drink his fill,
it he is not very warm, about a tulle front the
i.rvr~rii, or place where yoit intend to stop; as
the water will then watrm -ll] his stoinacli, by

30 be preferable to watering iii the stalls.
