The relies of carnival follies bequeathed to us by the old French settlers of Louisiana still re- main in faded splendor; and it is the peculiar privilege of Shrove Tuesday to make of one’s self as consumate a fool as one choses. But year by year, as the practical Anglo-Saxon ele- ment predominates more and more, in an ex- act ratio does the buffoonery decrease. With the loss of whatever respectability it had in the olden time, the carnival has grown to bea nuisance, and with the exception of the Mys- tick Krewe of Comus, few others than profli- ee of either sex participate in its harlequin- ade. _ Fitful gusts of wind and rain during the en- tire morning seriously interfered with the street sports, but as the clouds broke away in the af- ternoon, throngs of masqued personages, cos- tumed in every conceiveable manner, poured along the thoroughfares. Troops of wild In- ‘lians dashed about on horseback; ney , clowns and knights, similarly mounted, fol- lowed in their wake. Women stalked about attired as men, and men unsexed themselves vf their proper garments to. don the crinoline. It was a glorious time for the abu ndonnees, the richer portion of whom clattered along in car- riages, while their poorer sisters dragged on foot through the sloppy streets. The vulgar and depraved of our city had the monopoly of its license, and if this one day’s freedom of the town could alleviate a figment of their wretch- edness, even a ‘‘ pillar of the church’ could forgive the nonsense of Mardi-Gras. The great and only commendable feature of the ocoasion was the procession of the Mystick Krewe of Comus at night. It is well known that our richest and most influential citizens ure members of this order, but so admirably is each brother's identity disguised that it is im- sible to point out any well known individ- and say with certainty, Thou art the man! > pretty well ascertained, from the above fact, that none of the feminine gender have as yet been initiated. Hours before the proces- sion had started every available nook was oc- cupied; the streets were like bee-hives, alive with the multitude; the balconies and windows ewarmed with dedles creolex; upon the steps «nd about the columns of the public buildings were perfect rookeries of curious little boys. Finally, a brilliant light shot athwart the buildings on Canal street,which gradually grew into a blaze of torches and Romancandles. A tremendous hurrah surged up from the enthu- siastic mass of spectators as the Eleusinian Brotherhood came in sight. In front rode a marshal, tastefully decora- ted. On the first car was borne an Egyptian pyramid, with an inseription explanatoty of the subjects represented in the pageant, viz The Great Men of Our Country. Separate cars bore living effigies of Columbus, De Soto, Bien- ville, Wm. Penn, Hendrik Hudson, Washbing- ton, Jackson, Clay, Calhoun, and Webster. ‘The Knights of De Soto followed his car, afoot, and likewise afoot behind the car of Wm. Penn stalked the braves of Powhatan. Each charac- ter was the fir smile of a marble statue of the original; habited in white garments, masked with a plaster cast of the features of the de- parted gri it was like a resurrection of the sheeted dead, as the garish light of the flam- beaux flooded the procession with haloes and harply and clearly-defined the lineaments of those who live in glory and in song. After parading the principal streets the Mys- tic Krewe entered the Varieties Theatre, where, with appropriate music and scenery, a variety of tableaux were produced, descriptive of our earlier and later history, such as Colum- bus discovering America. De Soto's discovery vf the Father of Waters, Powhatan saving the life of Smith, Landing of the Pilgriffts, &- The theatre was crowded from pit to dome, with a vast concourse of the beauty, wit, and wealth of New Or s, and the festivities were wound up with a brilliant danee—the savage and hero of old time waltzing with the « ripe and real’ daughters of the South. Merriment was rampant thtougbout the night,with masked balls within doors and frolicsome gambols with- out. Altogether, Mardi-Giras in New Orleans is a sight worth seeing, although the next day is Ash Wednesday—with its ashes. a Great Men Always Knew Each Other. When Mr. Clay visited Hopkinsville, Ky., the first year of the Administration of John Quincy Adams, to defend himself against the charge of ‘bargain. intrigue and corruption,” he was called upon by his frionds at a large and spacious saloon. Dr. H—, then of that Pines, and a great friend of Mr. Clay, was by is side presenting him to his numerous friends us they came forward. Presently the Doctor saw the tall form of the eccentric Governor Pitisur enter the door of the saloon. In- stantly he embraced the opportunity to point him out to Mr. Clay, and then whispered to him that that tall man atthe door “is Gov Pittsur. of Pond River, a most worthy friend of yours, whom you must know without an in- troduction, and you must be certain, before he leaves, to wish that he may never have another invasion of squirrels.’’ Thus posted, Mr. Clay stood his ground in the centre of the saloon, while the Governor, unconscious of the innocent trick, approached him by degrees, and saying, as he came— +: Don’t introduce me to Mr. Clay; he will know me and [ shall know him, for great men know each other on sight.”” The Giovernor looked everywhere but in the right place, and asked, as he passed on : *- Where is the god-like man?"* and saying. ~: I shall know him on sight; for great men like us always know each other. I beg of you. gen- tlemen, not to introduce us: se will know each other, although we have never seen each other. You say he is in this room; good—I shall find him !"' and away he stalked towards the place where Mr. Clay stood. Presently he drew himself up to his loftiest height upon beholding Mr. Clay, and eyed him for some time in unutterable admiration. Mr Clay stepped forward with his blandest smile and sweetest voice, and exclaimed— ‘How are you, Governor Pittser of Pond River. I am rej to see you.” ** Hear that‘”’ said the Governor; “dida’t I tell you that he would know me, and that Pitt- sur would know him’ Yes, yes, gentlemen, he is the greatest man that lives!” After cordially shaking hands, and telling a few of his happy jokes, Mr. Clay said— **My dear Governor, I wish that you way live a thousand years, that health may abound throughout your wide domain, and that you never have another invasion of squirreis." me,’’ said the Governor, did you hear that’ How did he know that my people had lost their entire crop of corn last year by syairrels? Bless my soul, he knows every- t3aing' Wonderfal! wonderful! I always told you was the greatest man in the world— Didn't I boys?” And the Governor left ina state of perfect admiration of the great statesman 2h, XV. The Rev. Mr. Spurgeon at th ai chapel in Paris. oo e clip the followin, interesting extract a letter published in the New York “The Rev Mr. Spurgeon t . lish preacher, was “ aris _ Teeny oe gave the American and English residents an opportunity of hearing him preach, the same evening, at the American Chapel, in the Rue de Berri. The edifice is large, particularly when the customary attendance is taken into consideration ; but on this cccasion it was crowded to overflowing; both aisles were filled with people, wedged against each other most uncomfortably, and many doubtless went away, unable ta obtain admission. Mr. Spurgeon appeared in the pulpit at half past 7 o'clock, and the services were opened with a prayer and hymn, the clergyman reading each verse before it was sung. He gave a specimen of his originality immediately after the first verse of the hymn _by observing, ‘Our sin, ing is very feeble Praise ; could we not make it more earnest ’’ which made a manifest addition to the strength, if not the number of voices. Mr. Spurgeon then preached a sort of Preliminary sermon, which oceupied not more than a quar- ter of an hour, and in the course of which he spoke of the moulting season of birds, and said that ‘women, too, havea moulting time, when they shed the tail-feathers of pride and produce the wing-feathers of race,’ which is certainly a singular, though Tivabis suggest not a ey felicitous metaphor. After the preliminary iscourse followed an earnest and beautiful prayer, a second hymn, and then the Principal sermon, from the text: ‘** Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and corp pen be saved, and thy house.’—Aects xvi, 31. “It would be ont of place, perhaps, to make extended comment, in a sketch pane ae like mine in the Express, upon so serious a subject as a solemn religious exhortation, and I conse- quealy content myself with the remark that I never heard more impassioned or eloquen pul- pit oratory; though, from a single heari ig of this celebrated preacher, I feel confident’ in the assertion that we have in America divines not less masters of simple rhetoric and brilliant imagery than Mr. Spurgeon. His great forte isin the former; and, after once having listened to him, it is easy to understand the influence of his preaching over the humbler classes of the English, among whom the vast majorit: of his admirers and disciples are to be saad Physically, Mr. Spurgeon gives no evidence of inspiration. His person is, on the contrary, very ordinary. He is a short, heavily, built man, with a large fat face, smoothly shaved, and without perceptible expression. “His voice, however. is magnificent, and would fill any large American hall, as for instance, the New York Academy of M: with perfect ease. Its intonations are hoister- ous or gentle, as he pleases, and never, asoften the case with pele speakers, sing-song and menotonous. This fact proves that Mr. Spur- geon utters his words without effort, and his wonderful, clearness of pronunciation is as re- markable as his voice. Both the sermons of Tuesday were preached extemporaneously, or at all events without notes, and the second oc- cupied 50 minutes’ rapid delivery during which the orator never faltered, nor stammered, nor sought a word, but went on as readily, from first to last, as if he was reading a book. “At the close of the exercise, before dismiss- ing thecongregation, theclergyman stated that it had been hisintention to preach for the ben- efit of the American Chapel in Paris, in whose pulpit he stood, but that the vestry of the church insisted that the proceeds of the collec- tion about to be taken should be applied to the edifice in progress of construction in London, for the use of his own congregation, composed mostly vod ear people. He added that £20,000 had already been raised for the purpose, and £10,000 more were still to be obtained. He ac- cepted the offer of the American vestry, but would consider himself bound to return the favor in kind. The collection was then taken up, and the audience dismissed.” The Recent Tragedy in Franklin. The Petersburg Express, referring to the cause of the late affray in Franklin county, Va., says : The marriage between Mr. James Clement and Miss Victoria Smith, was solemnized about two years ago last fall, and the nuptials were celebrated with great ec/q/, a brilliant party being given in honor of the event, which was attended by the e//te of the two counties, who flocked in large numbers, by invitation, from all parts of that section, to do honor to the joy- ous oceasion. For several months the wedded pair lived together with naught but the most unalloyed happiness shining on the rosy pathway of their early matrimonial career. At length the “green-eyed’’ monster, jealousy, reared his horrid front in the household of the happy couple, and ultimately placed such restrictions upon the young and confiding wife as to render her very existence a burden too intolerable to be borne. She finally resolved to leave the roof of her husband, and removed to the residence of her mother. Mrs. Dr. Albert Smith, in the county of Pittsylvania, where she now resides; and by the advice of her friends, during the fall of 1859, instituted suit against her husband for divorce. Soon after the institution of the suit, the parties met at Sandy Level, Pittsylvania county, for the purpose of taking depositions. Here a charge was made by the husband, Mr. Jas. Clement, which involved alike the honor of his wife and that of Mr. William P. Gilbert, a young gentleman present, which was resented by Mr. Gilberton the spot. Pistols were drawn on both sides, and nine shots exchanged, five of which took effect, injuring Mr. Gilbert and brother, as well as two of the Messrs. Clement, but none of them serious}. This serious affray, of course, greatly in- creased the ill feeling which had been engen- dered between the parties, and the matter finally became so much talked of that most of the citizens of the two counties were involved in the difficulty, each party having its warm and zealous adherents. Added to other causes which had so estranged the two families, some time since Mr. James Clement, the husband, by some means obtained possession of a sprightly child, the only issue of the marriage, and placed it with his own relatives. The grandfather, Captain Witcher, and a large fy friends, deeming this an outrage, and believing that the mother was the roper custodian of the tender offspring, by auc Process of law recovered the infant, and restored it to its maternal parent.
