A RBCONHTKfCTKD SoL'THKRN'KR. There is much blood between the Americans and English in Paris, growing out of the disputes between their respective countries. A stal wart American from the South, with an English friend and two women, had a private box at the last opera ball. During the progress of the festivities the two cavaliers got into a dispute over the Alalwma claims, and finally, to the dismay of their fair comjianions, proposes to begin the war there at once. Early in the comlttt the American dealt his antagonist a terrible blow, which dislocated his shoulder. The wo men then shrieked and the guards burst in the door, while the victor coolly gave his arm to the disabled Briton, helped him into a carriage, and returned master of the field and of both the ladies. But, perhaps, the strangest part of the story is yet to be told. The American cham pion is not only a native of the South, but he was also the most violent ot secessionists.

Tlie Missouri Democrat avers that Horace fVreeley is going to set out te-i acres of cigar boxwood this Spring on his farm at Chappn qua. On two acres lie intends to graft the government stamp.
