A correspondent of the Sulmrllpost, wri- ting upon affairs in Franco ami the populnr fermentation, says: \The'whole ground on which the gov- ernment of France, is standing is under- mined. No one knows whether, or hu\v long it can remain. It is impossible to change anything in this state of things Which has become a condition of existence to the administration, unci even lli'.wi who can clearly see the abyss he lb re them must still approach it. A period of universal district has commenced; no one is t'ho't pure, no one guiltless, and all regard for authority has disappeared. Accusitions are added to accusitions, the charges of Girardid are not disapproved, M. Cunin- Gildaine has not washed himself from the blot of having received 500 shares of the Northern Railroad,and already a new com-, plaint is spoken of against Marshal Soult, and the Minister, Dumon ; they are char- ged with receiving 1500 shares of the Railrcfad between Lyons and Avignon. To stop is impossible; the wheels of State are rolling down the mountain,nearer and near- er the precipice whore they will bo de- stroyed. And, beside this wretched policy at home, whose only aim is to secure 250 among the. 430 deputies lo vote every thing that is asked of them, stands a foreign pol- cy still more wretched.

General D was more distinguished for gallantry in the field than for the care. he lavished upon personal cleanliness.— Complaining upon a certain occasion lo the late Chief Justice Bushe of the. suffer- ings he endured from rheumatism, that learned and humorous Judge undertook to prescribe a remedy. \ You must desire your servant,\ he said to the general, \to place every morning by your bedside a tub three parts filled with warm water. You will then get into tho tub, and having pre- viously provided yourself with a pound of yellow soap, you must rub your whole body with it, immersing yourself occasion- ally in the water, and at the end of an hour the process concludes by wiping yourself dry with towels, and scrubbing your per. son with a flesh-brush.\ \ Why,\ said the general, after a few moment's reflection upon what lie had just heard, \ this seems to me to be neither more nor less than washing myself!\ •''Well,\ rejoined the Judge, \it is open to that objection.\ Strength of Ijove, The historian Xenephon relates that, when Cyrus had taken captive a prince of Armenia, together with his young and benu- tifvl wife, of whom he was remarkabl j years old, to cut a bee Iree, and as he ex- Coil the remainder of the milk and add to it. pected to find '•his' of honey, he did not take his shooting iron with hiin, believing he could not carry it and the honey too.— When begot to the tree, he commenced chopping, his son standing eighty or a hundred steps from him, with a butcher knife in his hand—he had cut but a few moments when he heard a noise just above him in a hollow ; he looked up, and saw a huge panther walking leisurely, paying no attention to him. Determined not to let him pass thus, Hudson look up a stone and threw at it. The panther stopped, looked up, saw Hudson, made at him, without asking him if he was ready. Hudson turned to take the axe out of the tree to fight with ; but before lie could got it and turn round, the panther was upon him, and he. was compelled to drop his axe and take it 'fist and skull.' Its first effort was to take him by the. throat, but throwing down his head it caught him by the forehead and bit hiin severe, ly. He knocked it oil' two or three times, and it would rise and rear again to get him by the throat ; but he prevented it from doing so, by striking it 'underhand- ed,' He If any of our lady readers follow the abovo di- rections and find the | uddingset down as No. two they may address a note to us and find u guest that will pronounce it number one, and give un- doubted evidence of tho honest.// of lhe opinion— Journal.

On the cvo of his departure, he sont for the Rev. Jonathan Doolittlc and Capt. Watlington of tho Custom House. To them he said, \Had I signed thcplcdgo when I first came to this Key, I would this day have been as wealthy a man as Mr. Wall, (tho richest man in tho place) and have died in mine own house, attended by mine own wife.

The wheat was never better, nor was there ever a larger yield. In a recent trip through portions of Ca- millus, Elbridge, Van Buren, and Lysan~ der, we were gratified with the appearance of the country. The harvest fields and meadows were relieved of good crops, and appeared as cheerful as \ light hearted damsels in russet gowns.\ The Wheat crop, though not as heavy as in former years,was fair. The berry is remarkably plump, and will give more flower to the bushel than usual. The Corn fields uniformly indicated large crops. A more luxurient growth, it is said, was never known in this country, while the amount planted is unpreccdent- edly large. Farmers generally were engaged in har-« vesting their Oats, of which there is an avarage yield or more. We have never seen Apples more abun- dant or of fairer growth. The trees of ak most every orchard were bending beneath their heavy load of fruit. Of plums, pears, &c, there is an abundant supply.— Jour- nal. ceptions, is far superior to any former year. The quantity sown was greater ; it is thicker on the ground, filled better, and without rust, smut or blemish of any kind. The corn fields are like the cane brakes of the south—never were exceeded in ex- tent and quality. Uats, hay, &c, are, also more than a usual crop. The only defi- ciency is fruit. Indiana, this year, will raise produce enough to feed one half of the whole human race lor twelve months if none of the crop be fed to stock, or still- houses.

In the London Corn market on Monday, there was a reduction on Wheat ot 8al0s per qur. We have no quotations to give of yester- day's transactions.
