The duration of the rights granted by anterior laws, to the heirs, irregular suc- eessors, grantees, or legatees of authors, com- posers or artists is extended to fifty years da- ting from the decease of the author.

This enjoyment does not take place when there exists, at the moment of death, « separa- tion of persons pronounced against this sur- Viving party; it ceases in the case where the survivor contracts a new marriage. The rights of heirs in remainder, (Teserve,) or of other heirs or successors daring this p riod of fifty years, remains, moreover, regul: ted in conformity with the preseriptions of t Code Napoleon. 1. When the succession devolves tothe State the exclusive right is extinguished, without prejudice to the rights of creditors, and the execution of agreements of cession which may have beer consented to by the author or his representatives. 2.

We clip from the Alexandria Gazet‘e of yesterday the fol- lowing items: Corporation Indebtedness Cancelled. — Last night, in the Board of Aldermen, Mr. A. J. Fleming stated, inci¢entally. that the finance committee had cancelled, during the last two days, by burning and otherwise, upwards of $55,000 of the indebtedness of the corporatien, as follows:—Due bills cancelled by burning, $12,429 5; coupons, $12,400; certificates or in- debtedness, $2,615.50: auditor's warrants, §7,- (50.65; total, $45,075 64. Om the Ist of March i561, there were £125,000 in corporation notes outstanding, of which amoant $100,000 have been destroyed upto this date, leaving only about £25.000 afloat. The last sales of corpor- ation money—which is destroyed as soon as collected—are quoted at 65 cents on the dollar. Lost Money Found —A man named Smith, from the upper country, who visited this city jast month to obtain @ contract for building a section of the Alexandria aud Fredericksburg Railroad, bringing with him $4,000, which he had bid while under the inflaence of liquor, in & place the location of which he failed to remember, bas been lucky enough to recover bis lost treasure. It was found yesterday by some children of Mr. Todd, who were ecraping the ground near the O.& A. R. R. depot for old iron. Orange and Alexandria Railroad.—Some in. quiry lorinformation baving been made, as to 4 statement ina Richmond paper, concerning the amount of the stock of this company held in Baltimore, we are informed on reliable au- thority, that the books of the company show that only about one-tenth of the stock is owned in Baltrmore; and about three-fourths of that amount is stock that was sold by Messrs. Bar- reda & Fowle.of New York, who purchased it before the war, from the late Charles Scott, of Lynchburg. Rescued from Death.—A little boy, two or three years of age, named Thomas Hays, whose motber is a widow, residing on the extreme northern end of Columbus street, aceidently fell into the ice house well of Mr. John Laphen, in that locality,on Monday evening last. The well contained twelve feet of water, and the little fellow had sunk twice, when he was rescued by & young man named MecNuity, who, at the imminent pas of his own life, jumped in and rescued him. Cotton Factory.—Gas having been introduced intothe Mount Vernon Factory, by Mr. Wm. Cogan, that establishment was brilhantly lighted last night, for the first time since opera- Uons were resumed there, by gas trom the city’s works. Cut Out.—The Alewive fisheries on the Po- tomac bave ceased operations for the season: and we learn that the amount of oil made is inconsiderable. BALTIMORE AND P@TOMAC RAILROAD.—The Engineers engaged in locating the route of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad have crossed the Patuxent River with the survey from Anne Arundel ihto Prince George's aunty, at a poi.ta little above “the Priest's Bridge.” «A Stockbolder” writes tothe Marlboro’ Gazette as follows, in relation to the progress of the work, &c.:—The lumber for the construction of the shanties for the workmen and storehouses, and other necessary building is now st Millersville, on the Annapelis Rail- road, and the buildings will be immediately erected. Inavery few days, ground will be broken by the grading party, and there is now every prospect of the contractors having the five miles of grading, which the contraet re. quires, completed much sooner even than they are obliged todo. 1 can see nothing likely to interfere with entire and immediate succes: if the adverse legislation which will be at- tempted at Annapolis this winter can be pre- vented, and in this connection, 1 am sorry to hear that Mr. Bowie, the President of the road, is being opposed for the nominatioa for the Senate in Spalding’s District because of an idea that the road will interfere with the success of the market gardeners in that section which supply the Washington market. Than this there could be no greater mistake, as there is no.dnterest in the Coanty which will be more benefitted than the gardening. FIRE AT Wiscasset, Matxe. most de- s'ructive confixgration occarred Wiscasset, Me., on Tuesday, breaking out at 3 o'clock in the morning in an old wooden Rouse: in the upper story; occupied by families, callea the ‘Tyler Building.

The logs is esti- mated at more than $100,000, on which there is audnsurance of not more than $35,100. The burnt district comprises about two-thirds of the business of the town. Between 50 and 60 buildings destroyed, and about 39 families are made homeless.

Anxiety About the Emperor's Health. [From the London Times. September 24 | Tne Emperor of the French left for Biarritz on Thursday night, but his friends are not quite re-assured on the score of his health. We are very unwilling to give weight to the re- ports that have been spread as to the serious nature Of bis indisposition; but nether can we too readily credit the accounts that are given of his perfect recovery. The well-being of the Emperor Napoleon, and his fitness for intense And constant application to public business, are matters of great moment for France and the world that it is no wonder if ramor exag- gerates hopes and fears, and if the excitement is kept alive by every variety of gross and willful misstatement. Although we bave Treason to believe that the Emperor is in no present danger, yet we are also assured, on very geod authority, that the medical advisers recommend prudence, and warn him r inst tbe “serious consequences” of an: departure trom their injunctions. The will of the Em- peror is ofsuch paramount weight in France, and the settlement of the most intricate ques. tions 1s so dependent on bim alone, that it is of the greatest importance that the exercise of his faculties should be unimpaired, and his judg- ment unbiased by any subordinate influence. Our readers will bave had little difficulty in understanding the hints that have been ‘brown out in the Paris correspondence which we published on Saturday. Kouud the lmperial throne, and about his Majesty's person, there are conflicting agencies at work, striving to draw him into different and contrary direc- lions. and to sway bis resolutions in obedience to their peculiar views and especial purposes. Although their influence may be but slightly felt in ordinary circumstances, and so long as the master mind is in the full enjoyment of per- feet freedom. they may, however, not be so easily resisted when the mental energies are borne down by bodily sufferings. These dis- turbing forces, these contending court factions, are beaded by two persons of exalted rank, one of whom lately preceded the Emperor to Biarritz, and the other has been for some ume enjoying his leisure at nis charming residence on Lake Leman. Should any sinister event either remove the Emperor from his Place at the head of the Government, or even slacken that rare activity of which he has hitherto given proof, there is no doubt that many of the vital European questious which are even now awaiting the Emperor's good will and pleas- ure would receive @ different solution from that he might wish to give them. Among these none would become a more serious Subject of contention than the Roman question, on which the tendencies of the este Paty are known to be rigidly conservative ani Ultramontaine, while the political school of Prangins are avowedly bent on securing the triumph of the cause of nationality and freedom. pacesnce Ata caceeiaei SALE OF THE Rack HORSE Kextucky.—We learn on good authority that the renowned racer Kentucky has been sold by Messrs. Os- good and Travers, his owners, to Mr. Leonard W. Jerome, for the princely sum of £40,000. He will probably retire from the tarf, on which his career has been so brilliantly suecesstul, and be devoted to perpetuate atthe stud the matchless speed and emdurance which has made his name imperishable in the annals of the American turf. He never met defeat but once, and that was when utterly out of condi- tion, when be was beaten by his famous half brother, Norfolk, in the Jersey Derby of 1864. His winnings in purse and stakes alone amount to over 11.000. He was bred by Mr. Jonn M. Olay, of Kentucky, atter which Statehe was named, and was soid by that gentleman, after winning the two-year old stake at the Patter. son Fall meeting of 1563 along with his half brother Arcola, to Messrs. Osgood and Travers, tor the sum of $7,000, He has ever since been trained in Mr. Hunter's stable, that gentleman taking one-half of his winnings for the ex- pense of training.

A spirited dec! ton on the question of the tem pors] power ot the Pope may be looked for, and there is talk of a reguiar for His Holiness in all ut country. There is an evyiden: of ecype of the members to bring the American nual collection and proportions established in otber couatnes by the canon » Which, here. has never been in foree. Thus, it proposes to create cathedral chapters and ecclesiastical courts; to appeint Tural deans and archdeacons. and to erect regu- lar ae ‘hes, erned by the usual ecclesiasti. callaws. At present there are no the United States, except in New Ori priests are nominaliy m the limite of whose fleld of inbor are fixed arbitrarily by the bishop. Probably all these changes will not be made just yet. There be some al- The minting new bishops, so as togive all the archtishops some- thing to say in the matter. With regard to Priests, it is seriously proposed to aw compelling them tosbave and wear their hair sbor': and I bave even beard rumors of a de- cree or the important subject ef gold sleerve- buttons. There is a disposition to forbid the ure ef churches for the oe of raising money by res, especially when the lecta- reris alayman. The case of converts from Protestanuem, and especially married clergy- men, who cannet enter the priesthood, will be considered, and it is suggested that they might be allowed to receive the tonsure and minor orders, and assist the higher clergy in preach- ing, and other duties for which the sacredotal character is not essential. The morality of theatres and dancing. and especially the “chorer sinus honesie que nominibus veniunt *Round Dances’ ¢f +Germae’” wit be duly considered. The propriety of excommunica- upg tbolics who are married by a Protes- tant clergyman will be discussed. An at- tempt will be made to secure uniformity the observance of festivals and fasts, ana prob. ably the number of both will be increase@ Some relaxation is pi from the rule which forbids interments with the Catholic ceremonial in any bat Catholic barial grounds.

With to the pablication of Untholic books there is rather & desire to improve their quality than to increase their numbere, and it is not improb- Able that some measures will be taken to cur- ibe indiscrimin: issues from what is called the Catholic press, I don’t believe that either literature or truth would saffer if stringent rules of that nature were adopted. The irrepressible Fenians will get into the council, of course, but whether they will be censured or let alone I have no means of judging. The consideration of the condition of the freedmen was pressed upon the council bya jetter from Cardinal Barnabo, tof the Propaganda at Rome. The points to be dis- cussed are the appointment of an Apostolic Prefect, with Episcopal powers, for the spe- cial superintendence of missions the blacks; the erection of separate churches for these people; the admission of colored men to the priesthood: the establishment of convents of colored nuns, and cf schools for children; and finally the introduction of congregation: singing in the vernacular into negro churches.
