As Eloquent Kxtract. The fol lowing is the conclusion of a Chris tti ai editorial in the Oakland JYtws . They tell us that the influence of the Christian religion is declining; that it will after a while expire from the eu lightened world ; that it is all of life to live and all oe death, to die. Ah reader! You and me know better. We hear the cold, hopeless blasphemy angrily contra dicted by the viewless prophets within tho sanctuaries of our own '' souls. e look upon the white, still face of an iufant in its coffin, and cannot believe that its sleep, though dreamless", is eter nal. It cannot be that God has created one so beautiful, so innocent, so siuless, to fade and depart liko vapor of the morning, and be lost in the dreadful vortex of Annihilation. The fairest flower that is cut down by the frost, the serest leaf that is whirled to the dust in gales of Autumn, is restored at the next uprising of the year; and shall not that little one come back to life, not in speech less pallor, not in the wan similitude of death, but warm and exultant from tho sheltering bosom of the Good Shepherd, and all radicnt in the beauty and vigor of eternal life? Had this appeared in an Eastern journ" al it would have been takeu as one of Prentice's loftiest efforts. Many of our readers will at once recosruizc in it the stylo of Calvin B. Macdouald. War Nrws. The late news from France is full of hope for the young Re public. The spirit of tho people is un subdued by past misfortunes, and they regard the future of the war with much confidence. The successes of their arm ies in the South and West have had cheering affect upon them. It is thought that even should Paris fall into the hands of the Prussians, the war will still be pushed with vi"or by the French. Tho bombardment of Paris has commenced and its success or failure will soon be heralded to the world. "Why, Emily, how do you do ?" "I am Tery well, Julia. I celebrated my wooden wedding last week." "Why I didn't know you were married. How did you celebrate it?" "By marrying a block-lead." On account ol the late severe rains the construction work on the Oregon and California Railroad, towards the one hun dred mile station, has been suspended until the return of Spring and good weather, when the work will be resumed and vigorously prosecuted to the head of the Willamette Valley. The whistle of the locomotive and the weleomo rumb ling of the trains will be heard away in Lane county next year. There is much reason for believing that the selection of a King for Spain was a most unfortunate proceeding." lie is not acceptable to a large portion of the people, and the army, upon whi.-h he must rely for the safety of his throne, is strongly tainted with republicanism This being the case, should an insurrec tion occur, which now looks altogether probable, the troops are more likely to sympathise with tho people than with the new sovereign. We shall not be surprised at any time to hear of a revo lutionary outbreak in Spain. That exceedingly intricate affair, the Eastern question, has received another complicaticn. The old jealousy between the Sultan and the Khedive has broken out afrash. and the allegiance of the lat ter hangs by a very slender thread.

This is bad news for Enj;- I JJcaUi of CJcucral Prim. i ' Last week we announced the death of General Prim. He was wounded by a band of assansins, who lay in wait for him as he was quitting the Cortes, on the 2Sth of December, causing his death on the 31st. Gen. Prim was, at the time of his death, the most prominent man in Spain, and bad been connected with the history of his country for the last quarter century, during the greater portion of hat time occupying a high position in the State, living extremely ambitious and fond of power, besought invariably to convert the troubles and commotions of his uuhappy country to his own im mediate personal advancement. With a full and perfect understanding of the pe culiar temper of the people with whom ho had to deal, ho put forth every exer tion and used every artifice to endear himself to them. His enemies claimed that the great end and aim of his life was to place himself upon the throne of Spain; that, knowing tho slight hold Queen Isabella had upon the c flections of the people, he proposed by careful intrigue, culminating in a revolution, to remove her and occupy the "head centre" him self. With this view he took a lcadin part in all political movements, some times as a loyalist and at others a rebel only true to himself. He was the chief promoter of the war with Mexico, be gun by Spain, France and England con jointly, and finished by France alone Ilis intrigues for the Imperial pnrple of Mexico were cut short by the se lection of Maximilian by the French Emperor. In 1864 ho was expelled for conspiracy against the throue of Isabella. Two years after he commenced the revolt at Araniuez. which terminated in his it ignominious retreat into Portugal. In 18GS, in conjunction with Serrano an Topete, he brought about the revolution which drove Isabella from the throne of Spain. During the interregnum Gen. Prim delivered many addresses, so extremely liberal and democratic in tone, that the Republicans looked upon hiia as a convert to their opinions. Ilis advocacy of the election of the Duke d'Aosta undeceive them and filled them with rage, as they looked upon him as a traitor to their cause. Hence his death was decided upon by sonic of the extremists. II H l''afhiolls.

Hoping it will iuterest our lady friends j we clip from the Chronicle's New York correspondence tho following paragraphs relating to the latest styles in ladies' wearing apparel : WINTER BONNETS Aro more varied in style than for the past few years, when all black bonnets were the most stylish. If composed of rich materials, these are now stylish, but those ol blue, maroon, preen, etc., are a3 much so. Shaded bonnets are in style to xuit the shaded costumes, and liveliest of all the shaded chapcavx are the browns, mat makes our lorest scenery so attrac tive in Autumnf The rhape remains the same; and in Tound hats, velvet is much in vogue it being the same shade of the velvet trimmings on the dress. WINTER SUITS FOR PROMENADE, Were never more elogautthau now. Tho rage for innumerable flounces has passed, and trimmings ot rich velvets and silks are in vogue, r luunces are stm in style, but they are not as full as formerly. The prevailing style for street costumes is black, though vtry rich and sty lish suits are in other iasluouable 'colors. A fash ionable costume ol two colors is to have the underskirt of black silk, with one wide flouee, and uu overt-kirt of a fash ionable color, the corsage and sleeves of the same material and color as the up per skirt. Black silk suits are elegantly trimmed with black velvet, sometimes in flounces ; but this makes the dress very heavy, and folds are move generally used. BLACK VELVET CUITS Arc the . richest worn this season. A very stylish one, recently made, was trimmed with sable furf having a band around the skirt and the same width upon the pale tot and the . gauntlet curls upon the sleeves. One, not as expensive, but rich and elegant, was made after the same design, and instead of fur bauds, was edged with cord, covered with blaek "los-grain silk. With this, a black vel vet bonnet, ornamented with ostrich tips and bright, warm-tinted flowers, is worn. BLACK GROS-GRAIN SILK Is next in vogue for rich street costumes, and should be trimmed with velvet. A stylish dress of black silk has velvet bands on the skirt, the paletot is wadded and lined with velvet trimming, and a velvet vest is worn, with buttons in front. Some of the black silk suits, made after this design, have a postillion of black velvet and wide velvet cuffs. A pretty costume is a skirt of soft gray, with bands of velvet a darker shade of giay, and a paletot of heavy black silk, with a narrow band of black marten fur' trimming.

A little while ago Gen'. Uourbaki, the French commander, was reported insane. The dispatches now say he is marching on Nancy and other points in eastern Frace with a view of cutting off the com munications of the Gorman armies with their country. If this is true there is more method in Bourbaki's madness than in the sanity of some of the other French commanders. While the German arm ies are now all engaged in the heart of France, the most obvious thing for the French to try to do is to cut their com munications. . ' ; Th"e Mitusouri Rejyublican, the leading Democratic journal of the West, has been examining the Chinese statastics as disclosed by the United States census in California, and comes to the following conclusion: "When we como to reduce the vexed question of Chinese immitrration down to sober facts aud figures, we find that it is a matter of comparatively smalP conse quence ; : and that unless a sudden and unexpected change occurs, it is never like!y,to assume troublesome dimensions. The- views of the' JSejntblican vary materially from those entertained by politieians of the Democratic school in Oregon. The terrible results to follow the introduction of the "Heathen Chinee" upon our soil was the sole "argument" of Democracy in the last political com bat, and upon which they rode into pow er. :: . ..... DlSAPl'EARANCE OF AN ISLAND. A largo island is missing. Captain Ploek, of the bark AdoTphe, bound from Iquique to London, states that while passing the New Hebrides islands lie discovered that the Aurora islaud had entirely disap peared, and no trace of it was to be seen on the face of the ocean where it was be. fore situated. What makes this occur rence more deplorable, says the Pall Mall Gazette, is thalr Aurora was one of the most fertile of tho group of islands of which it formed a member: It was last seen in latitude 15 degrees 2 minutes south, longitude 1G8 degrees 25 minutes cast. It has been desciibed as having been about thirty six miles in length and upwards of five miles in breadth. Any information respecting it will be thank fully received, andjt becomes a question whether a reward should not be oflered for its recovery. If large islands take to disappearing in this fashion we shall soon cease to congratulate ourselves on our 'insular position." There is, however, this consolation that if England were fiTdisappear like Aurora Island, thore would, no doubt, be a rigid investigation made into the circumstances by the . rest of the world. France would miss a use ful depot for her refugees; Irolaud would -suffer from ennui with no one to abuse ; and we may be sure that unless we had previously settled the Alabama claims, America would never rest until she had fished us up again. Long Tunnel. The Mont CCnis tun nel, seven and a half rails long, has bcen completed. It was begun in 1857, and the work has been continued ever since. In hight it is nineteen - feet, and. in breadth twenty-five feet, spacious enough to admit double railway tracks. The perforation was accomplished by means of ponderous drill machines, driven by compressed air engines with drill heads or boards weighing six hundred pounds each. Fast Type-Setting. -Probably the most remarkable achievement in the art of type-setting on record has just been accomplished by a young compositor on the Chicago Post, Andrew J. McCarthy. Por the -six days (excepting Sunday)" ending on . Friday, December ; 4th, Mc CarthVj'bn a wager, composed and cor reeled 95,G00 ems. One of the four of those days he worked six and a half hours; the other two seveu houis each thus achieving the extraordinary feat of setting 95,600 in forty hours ; and this without any extra "fat" other than or dinarily falls to the lot of each compos itor in the course of a week. Polonaise or casaiiue : the ekirt being of blaek silk. But when the suit is cash mere, guipure or duchess lace is often u-ed to trim it, as bice harmonizes with this soft, twilled fabric that drapes so gracefully. Fringe is also f.ihiouably worn upon cashmere. Cashmere is also much i;i vogue for opera cloaks that are made with wide sleeves, and for jackets with loose sleeves, to be worn under shawls on cold days. This fabric makes elegant house jackets.

G en Elf All Amnesty. The President says that the omission to make any ref erence to tne sut.ject or amnesty iu Hie message was accidental lie iutended to have stated his views freely upon the question, but in the hurry of making Up the document in time to send to Congress, ho omitted to do so. His purpose Vwas to call attention, in the first place, to the general niisapprehcusion prevalent in the couutry that a large number of people arc disfranchised in the South by the Fourteenth Amendment and.by the legis lation of Congress. ; This belief, which has been fostered by the Democratic newspapers, is wholly an error, for in fact do man has been deprived of the right to vote by the actiou of Congress or by the force of a Constitutional Amendment. All disfranchisement has been by virtue of laws enacted by the Southern States themselves, through their Legislatures, for which Congress is in noway responsi ble. This fact, the Pres-ident thinks ought to-be more generally understood. He proposed, in the second place, to have discussed the propriety of removing the disqualifications from holding office imposed by the Fourteenth Amendment. His view is that the people of the South ought first to accept the Fourteenth aud Fifthteenth Amende'nts, and give evi dence that they fully ckoowledge their validity, before asking for amnesty under the provisions of the first of these Amendments. The only power Congress has to grant amnesty is by virtue of the authority conferred by the Fourteenth Amendment, and so long as the Demo crats at the South resist that Amendment and deny its validity, it is manifestly in consistent for them to ask for a removal of disqualifications under its provisions. Until these Amendments are acknowl edged and respected as binding the Pres ident tbmks the 6cntiment ot the coun-. try will be averse to amnesty j but when the attitude of the late rebels changes in this respect, he bclievcs-that a sweeping amnesty should be promptly accorded by Congress. The President expresses his regret that he omitted to set these' views forth in bis message ' as it was bis full intention to have done. and dishonetr, hut their efVr!3 h:ive fruitier?, while thy Pain Killer i s till public favor. proved row:ni? in J:iU NEW TO-DAY" The pigeon mail from Paris suggests to a contemporary the fulfillment of the scripture prophecy ."
