Birth of the King of Algiers.

PARIS, Sunday, March 15-6 p. in.

You will have received, I trust, long
before the hour I am writing, the dis-
patch which annouuces the event so im-
portant to the Bonaparte dynasty-—the
safe delivery of the Empress and the
birth of a Prince.

1 informed you in my letter of ye.s.l.cr-
day that; when her Majesty began sari-
ously to feel the pains of childbirth she
sent round to the Ministers and ‘great
functionaries of State to be in attendance.
She felt indisposed as early as one o’clock
Her labor, which, in the beginning and
at subsequent intervals was very severe,
so much so, I amassured, as to have re.
quired the appliances of art-—continued
with some periods of tranquility for 22
hours, and-at 3 1-4 this morning all anx-
iety and danger were over and toe Em-
press gave birth to a male child. The
infant is described as robust, and with
every appearance of health, and the
mother, though necessarily weak, is, to
use the formula on such occasions, "as
well as can be expected under such cir.
cumstances."

A: 6 o’clock the cannon of the Inva-
lides announced to the city, which was
but half awakened, the tidings that the
Imperial throne had an heir, but the fact
was not gciierally known till about 8
o’clock. In an hour or two after the
birth. telegraphic dispatches were sent
from the Foreigii-Office to the various
diplomatic agents on the Continent ; and
the one transmitted to Dresden was re-
ccived and an answer returned with the
usual C0llgl’ai.l‘llal.iOnS,‘il'l about. an hour
and a half. Notice was, of course, at
once sent to the representatives‘ of for.
eign Powers in Paris, who, in the course
of the inorninrr. proceeded to the Tulle-
ries and left their names.

Inquiries were made as to the pro-
priety of the Pleriipotentiaries present-
itig in form their respects today at the
Palace. but it was intiniated that it
would be better to do so to-inorrow, at
the same time as the members of the
resident Diplomatic corps. Prepgraiions
were already made at the public estab-
lishments, for illurninations and the dis-
play of drapery. Many of the houses
on the Boulevards are decorated with
streamers. The theatres are profusely
hung with them, and the Flags of Eng.
land, France, Turkey and Sarclinia, float.”
united at this moment of rejoicing, as
they did in the long and dreary hours of
suffering and danger. The various em.
bassies have stands before them ready
for lamps ; and not last or least among
them, is the well known 33, Faubourg
St. Honore, so long vacant, but which,
I presume, will soon be no longer so ;--
it is occupied by Count Orloff, until M.
Kisseleff, or some other representative
of the Czar, returns to his quarters.

Satisfaction is generally expressed,
and I believe it is siircere-—eu:cepci.9 ero-
cz'pz'e72dz's—at the Empress’s delivery;
and this satisfaction is in nowise dimin-
ished by the improvement of the Empe-
ror’s uncle, Prince Jerome, who, it was
feared, was about to quit the world at
the moment his little nepl'ie\v was enter-
ing it. The interest J. noticed yesterday
when it was known that the Empress’s
labor had been commenced, increased as
the day wore away, and as night came
on, while no sound was heard from the
Invalides, numerous groups of people
thronged the approaches to the Palace
and the public thoroughfares, particu-
larly the Boulevards; and when 10
o’clock came and still guns were silent,
and no supplement to the Moniteur ap-
peared, people began to feel real anxiety
as to the result. The official announce-
ment of the conclusion of peace is now
only waniin_9,' to complete the public sat-
isfaction.

 

rm Im-,1oe'r2'aZ C'mdle.—A Paris letter
publshed in The Independence Beige
says: It; surpasses, it is said, in taste and
exquisite workmanship the famous one
presented to the King of Rome. The
following is a brief description of the
work in question ; " It will be in the
form of zi boat, the principal emblem in
the arms of the city époi’ Paris. At the
prow will be a. silver eagle with out-
spread wings, and the ciirtains at the
lieud will be supported by an Imperial
Crown also in silver, held up by two
children, one wearing a helmet, and the
othet; bearing round its head on olive
branch, emblematic of peace. The body
of the cradle stands on two columns one
at the head, the otherat the foot, and uni-
ted by a rail beneath. The columns will
be in rosewood beautifully carved and
ornamented with foliage in silver. The
upper edge of the cradle will have :1
border of silver filagree work having on
either side, about: the middle, small es-
cutcheons in silyer bearing the iiiitals of
their ll/Iajesties. From these medallions
garlands of flowers in silver will lead to
the foot and head of the cradle. The
curtains will be of pointed, Alencon lace
and blue silk emboridered in gold. , The
composition, direction, and superint.en-
dence of this beautiful piece of work-
manship have been confined to M. Bol-
tard, the architect of the city of Paris.

 

A young lady walking one fine morn-
ing met the celebrated John VVilkes.—-
She remarked to him. " You see sir I

You had better get. a husband first, mad-

The Slaver Falnmuth.

The ownership of this Vessel is still :1
mystery. No person has yet made his
appearance to lay claim to her, and she
still lies at the Navy Yard in charge of
the United States officers. Her cargo
was to have been taken out yesterday,
but in consequence of the unfavorable
state of the weather it was deferred. In
our description of the vessel yesterday
we omitted to mention that a United
States flag was found on board, together
with a quantity of hunting, but. no Por-
tugese flag. The Falmouth arrived here
on the 7th of this month from Baltimore.
She was sold Immediately after by her
owner Capt. VVarren, for -‘,S3,:300 cash
down in gold, to unknown parties.

A Ca/ve 'wz'tk a. Man in it.--—On the
the 20th iilt., a band of laborers on the
Central Railroad, in Alleghany county,
Va., on Cady’s section, penetrated into
a cave, the mouth of which was about
305 feet from Jackson’s river. 501116 of
the workmen entered it, and continuing
on their course, passed under the river
and came out on the other side of it. In
the cave was found the dead body of a
hunter, with all the equiprneuts lying
near him. About $6,000 in bonds, pay-
able to Mrs. A. Cross, and dated in 1823,
were found on the body, which was in a
wonderful state of preseration. The
bonds are signed by many of the oldest

citizens of Alleahany and Bath counties. .

Attempt at Hoirse, StmZing.——On
Friday last. a lad named Richard Syl-
vanus, in the employ of Mr. Charles
Auness, VVashiiigton Pottery, took pos-
session of one of his employ'er’s horses
and rode him off in the direction of Long
Ridge. A gentleman was sent. in pur-
suit of him and he was overtaken three
or four miles from the village and
liroiiglit back. The lad subsequently,
escaped from l.l10_[0W'l1 without the liorse.

T/re .Drmatz'on of a Wzfc.--0170 of the
most remarkable instances on record of
the unfaltering devotion of a wife to her
husband, under the most; trying circum-
stances, is Q,'lVEl1 in the history of the
Monroe tragedy in Coles county, Illi-
nois. A. F. Monroe killed his father-in
law——Ellingt.on, in a fight in which El-
lington struck the first blow. Public
opinion was so savage against Monroe
that the Court, and even the attorneys
for the defense, were overawed and a
change of venue, which was begged by
the prisoner, was not obtained. The
attorney of Monroe feareil to apply for it
apprehending inurderom tlcsigns on the
part. of the people. The trial proceeded
and the Jury did not dare to find’ the
prisoner guilty of anything but murder
in the first degree, and he was sentenced
to be hanged. The Governerimpfes-98d
that ,c_on1e|;hing was wrong in the case,
granted a respite of ninety days; the
mob broke into the jail, dragged Monroe
out and hung him. Amid all this storm
of infuriated; public opinion, though her
father was the victim in whose name
the cry of Vengeance was raised and he
had been a fast man, having drunk hard
and kept bad company, Monroe retained
the love of his “Nannie to the last.”—
VVnen he had been murdered by the
mob she begged for his remains, had
them transported to a burial place, a
few miles above Newport. 011 U13 IJl0li-

IVE learn that 1!. Straw Hal: fllanufuctiiring
Company of New York have purchased the
vacant lot in front of Judge Butler’ri rosi-
dence, and contemplate the immediate erec-
l.ion of 5. large factory for the maniifactiire of
Ladies’ Stritw Bonnets. It is reported that
the new cslmlilisliment will give employment
to some two hundred opera.i;ives. The factory
building is to be erected on the rear of the
lot, and the front to be devoted to two‘ or
three first class dwellings. The enterprising
proprietors will receive a hearty v-tolcome by
the Illllftliiliftnf-S of Norwallr. '

gfifllfcssi-3. Morrison & Hoyt inten-I the
erection of another large Manufactory tid-
joining their present edifice, and in connection
with it. This business extension will give
quite an impulse to our local thrift.

 

fl8‘An unusually large number of new
dwellings are in the course of erection and
about to be built, the present Spring. We do
not remember any year in our vil1u,r_-:9 history
when so many fiihst class houses were being
C0l]SlZl‘l1Cl.Ol.I. After the long and severe win-
ter, when “hard times" wart the word most
frequently on the lips of all our mechanics
and laborers, this state of things gives cheer-
ing evidencs of that “good time coming”
predicted in the song.

 We are really glad to learn that rt first
class boarding House is about being opened
bya party fully competent for the underta-

,l:ing. A Mrs. Rich3.rds,'for several years
‘past, in the some business in New York, has

leased the Disbrow House on West Avenue,
and will he in readiness to receive boarders
‘in ii. few days. This is what has long been
needed here, particularly during the summer
mohths, and we have no doubt will prove
successful.

 

Eta, A young man named Arnold was ar-
rested last week by officer Bissell, for stealing
money from G. Gregory of Wilton; A por-

$50 or $60, was recovered.

saulted by an Irishman on the dock at South
Norwalk, on Saturday evening, on the arrival
of the steamboat, in consequence of which the

truce was declared. We do not learn that
any arrests have been made.

Dr. Stori-95 Lecture.

The closing lecture of the season was given
last (Monday) evening, by Rev. R. S. Storrs,
D. D., of Brooklyn, in the Congregational
Church.

Owing to a political gathering held on the
some evening, and the expose of Spiritiialism
by Mr. Spencer in the upper village, the au-
dience was not so large as usual. This is
very much to be regretted, for many of our
citizens have not only lost a. rich intellectual
treat, but with it an amount of solid instruc-
tion and admonition, which will not be easily
regained. The impression ‘that trifle: are
not to be trifled with, was fixer] safe in the
mind of every bearer, whilst the bri1liantsi1c-
cession of sparkling images and glowing des-
criptions presentcd by the speaker, held the
audience perfectly spell-bound, making them
forget the lapse of time, and filling every
mind with thoughts and emotions too big for
utterance.

If Dr. Storrs shall over consent to overlook
this seeming neglect on the part of our peo-
ple, so far as to make us another visit, we can
assure him, not only a hearty welcome, but a
much larger audience. We will not. my bet-
ter, for the intellect and heart of the village
were there last evening. SOUTH NoP.wu.it.

An elderly maiden lady, whom for conve-
nienpe sake we will call Aunt Abigail, a. blood
cousin of Mrs. Partington, recently visited a
dentist, not -.1. thoiisand miles from here, for
the purpose of having some of her old fangs
extracted, and making the necessary arrange-
ments for a new set of teeth. We will let. her
give the account of her adventures in her
own language :

“ My teef had ached about long»; enough,
and I swowed that; I would have ’em out, and
some new ones in. So I went to Dr.
to get him to do the job. Well I sat down in
the chair, and he looked at my motif, and
said it would hurl: to take ’em out, and that I
had better take cfer. He said it wouldu’t.
hurt me, so I told. him 1 would, and he give
me some. It was queer tasted stuff‘. Pretty
soon I woke up he had got out all my teef.—-
Ohl I tell you efer-‘s a. great convention. He
might have ’eec’tcd my head after I took it
and I .shouldn’t never have known it. Well,
he then stuck some war-: in a. tin box and put
it into my motif, to get a. compression of my
gooms. I asked him when he would have my
tecf done, and he said he had got to make 3-
temporal. set first, and I could wear them till
he had finished the prominent set. So I ex-
pect between the efer, and the temporal and
prominent. set, I shall come out as grand as

 

new.”

We Wislied the good lady :1 long life of
pleasure and happiness with her two sets of
“tcef,” and almost choked with suppressed
laiigliter, bid her good day.

strong reason to suppose that many who

dangers which threatened the infant

side and the French and Spanish on the

- MR. EDITOR :—As there appears to be
no one ofthe Maine Law advocates who
seems willing to assert its good qualities
or to give the Report of the late Tem-
perance Convention, it is rather a dry
business. I had hoped to hear those
important questions answered, as pub-
lished in the Gazette they would be, but
I suppose that will not be done till after
our Spring Election. I think such a
law ought never to have been passed
for the reason of its arbitrary effecl.—
Suppose. the Constitution does not for-
hid it, neither does it forbid the passage
of a law to regulate our Apps/.2'te.t‘ for
any luxury, or necessary article of food.
I.Vliat would the young men and boys
say to the prohibition ofsmoking Segwrs,
and what would the young ladies say if
they could not wear I! wreath or plume
in their bonnets; or a ring on their fin.
ger, and what would the Old Folks say
to be deprived of the use of C‘ofl'ee,
Tea and Sugar, or what would we all
say to being denied the use of any of
the comforts of life even if they were
not absolutely necessary. The majority
would say such a law was arbitrary in
the extreme, and they would evade it
in every shape possible, although the
rights of a Legislature would be as per-
fect. in the one case as in the other, and
a parcel of Fanatics would be as likely
to do it as they did in old timcs to liaiig
lVitcli=.r:+, under the honest belief that it

The Result.

From tlw il.'Illll|.< received up to the time Of
it. is iippareiit that the Ameri-
("..lIl putty lum- 1'll i-lied the Legislature altho’
by -.2 -,5:-r--.it.l_v tliiuini.~lieil majority. There is
no «lotion of G-wet-iior by the people. Our
tclegrapliic Opt"l"tI.lt‘i1' owing to some defect in
the wires, was compelled to transcribe all our
(Il$[)l1.lUll*:.“~ lrotu soiiiid alone, at verydifficiilt
effort uni] necessarily involving some inaccura-
cies, still enough is known to render it moral-
ly certain that Connecticut stands REDEEM-
ED 5 which is glory enough.

Considering the extraordinary efforts put
forth by our opponents—the enormous sums of
money expended by them, and the (hordes of
for-eiggn voters made electors by and for _ them,
it is really a. matter of surprise that their
gains are not much greater than they at pres-

ent indicate.
