The Court Journal gives publicity to the following startling fact: " The Emperor of the French has expressed a ■determination to startle France ere long, and Europe too undoubtedly. If his Majesty carries out his design, which is to give a sudden order for the immediate concentration of 200,000 soldiers, with all the materials of war, at a giyen place, it is to be hoped that it will not be on the Prussian frontier, or Bismarck might do the like, and out of an experiment a practical issue would, perhaps, result" Men Wanted. --The Southern Home Journal says :—" The great want ot this age is men. Men who are not for sale. Men who are honest, sound from centre to circumierence, true to the heart's core. Men who will condemn wrong in friend or foe, in themselves as well as others. Men whose consciences are as steady as the needle to the Pole. Men who will stand for the right if the heavens totter, and the earth reels. Men who can tell the truth and look the world and the devil right in the eye. Men that neither brag nor run. Men that neither flag nor flinch. Men who can have courage without shouting to it. Men in whom the courage of everlasting life runs still, deep, and strong. Men too large for sectarian; bondl Men who do not cry nor cause their voice to be heard in the street, but will not fail nor be discouraged till judgment be set in the earth. Men who know their message and tell it. Men who know their places and fill them. Men who mind their own business. Men who will not lie. Men who are not too lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor. Men who are willing to cat what they have earned, and wear what they have paid for."
