Seriously, however, we merely alluded to this subject to illdstrate the fact that the . Republican influence in Missouri was only apparent to the dainstructed, and not real. At balf the pres¢nt prices of Negroes, as fifteen years ago, Missouri would be rapidly increasing in ber slate population in the production of hemp and tobacco ; but cotton is so high and rethunerative, tbat slave labor is immensely diverted to the South. Masotic.—At the atnual elettibu of Madison Lodge, of this place, on Tteeday last, the following brethren were eletted a8 offi: . cers for the ensuing year :— B. McLaughlin, W.M.; A.

Waenre arg Tuer ?—If the atmy of Italy was 200,000 strong, as it bas been genefally understood to have been, and there remuin in Italy under arms but 50,000 men, there remains 70,000 to be accounted for. Where are they? Not one-half that sumber is reported among the “killed’’ Where are they? It will be admitted that 70,000 is an immense number to miss st roll call ont of an army of 200,000. A Rorat Paeseyt—The Empress Eugenie of Paris seems to be a little less than idolised by the gay population of the French metropolis The latest testimony of affection is ftom the inhabitants of Paris, and consists of two superb vases of gold, weighing one hundred and eighty ounces. They are filled with boquets of exquisitely wrought golden flowers, each living censor of the » . perfume incident to the flower it represents. Thus the roses ate continwally pouring forth the fragrance of Syiran gardens, the violets are sweeter thim the “sweet South,” and the hyacinth bells are full of the pink-like Odor which it is almost impossible for art to imitate. Her Majesty is said to be fond of fower's,and this fancy undoubtedly has the advantage of being entirely novel, and exceedingly poetic withal. ga The women of Poland have a watchful eye over their daughters, and make them wear little beils on their persons, to denote where they are, and whet they are aboct. siibecription, or wait for Legislative aid, the .

One of the most important items we have gleaned {fom our exchanges for a long time is the proposition made by Jas, Haworth, President of the California Slage Company to enter into a contract with the Government te run a daily Overland Mail between . Sacramento and St. Louis for $1;Hd0,000 per year, and he furtier sayshe wodld be willing to have the «cHedule timié filaced at fourteen days fibm city tocity. He says; in addition, that he wotlld also contract to run a borse expreis between those twd points . carrying letters lly welght;"and mite the . time regularly in six diya: This ix a startling preposition, but those whd know the man are assured that what be fopioses he will accomplish, ifhe can get he contract. This ia one of the most, if not the must important subject ever mooted in California. Itis second only to the Pacific Hailroad in importance. The Red bluff Beacon tetomttends ¢ iat the Legislature, as soon as it meets, pass concurrent tesolutions requesting Congrers to contract with Mr. Haworth, for the trane: portatic# of mail matter overland, by any . route he thay select, upon the terms said to . Have beét! proposed by him. . A KING FOR IRELAND! . Tie Duke of Magenta, Marshal McMabor! . Of the Yrench army, bad been named for the kingship of Ireland. The Bishop of Orleans aské very inuvocently, if a recent charge to his clergy ; ‘Who can say that Ireland . would not prefer to the sceptre which oppreseed her, the sword of one of her bravest soldfersf the detendant of one of bér antient kings?’ The London Examiner, reféttiog to this allusion, says : “ Overtures have actwally bée made to the Marsbal on the part of Ireland. Under pretense of requesting his autograph, the Mayoresé of Limerick bas soundéd his intentions ; and, what is more significant, Marshal McMahon in his answer over in silence the tlady’s matRed allision to his blood and clafms. It is evident that he “ bides his time,’’ and we can conceive bis vexation at the Bishop's premature discloStranger things than this would bef have happened in thé world history. Should the present belitierent attitude of France and England, result in an open rupture, we that they will invest in the conétruction of . know of nothing more likely to bappen than . a toll road, but ask themto give money by . way of sabecription, to open a public road, . and the purse strings will be drawn tight, He argued in favor of the Bureka route, in preference to that by the way of Bear Valley, and enid that be could not imagine a toute presenting more advantages than the former. He submitted a series of resolutions from which we extract the folldwing:— Resolved, That a Committee be appointed to take forthwith the necessary steps fot incofpottaing the company, the names of menibers as they may be given in, {0 draft the by-laws of such corporation ; and thet the the capital slock of such corporation be fixed at $25.000, and each share at $50. Resolved. That the Senators and Assenihiymen representing Nevada County, be . requested to procure the enactment of a law providing tor the collection of twenty-five thousand dollars from the citizens theréof their sanction by vote being first had, for the pnrpose of constructing, as soon as practicable, on the best gradea wagon road from Eureka Sonth via Jackson's Ranch, to thé summit, through the Henness Pass, or fo" ~ purchase of such road if built before such me. Resolved, That a Committee of three be appointee to drafta bill such as is required to be introduced in the Legislature. and fo present the same to our Senators and Assemblymen, and request their cordial co—operation in its passage. The following gentleman were then appointed as the committee to organize the corporation: Richard Rafford and R, B. Moyes, of Eureka*; Henry Meredith, of Nevada ; Alexander Frazer, of Bridgeport George D. Roberts, of Grass Valley ; J. W. Dension, 6t, Bloomfield ; S M. Gilham, o Rough & Ready ; W. W.
