If mh glorious results crowned the efforts of the preacher, where the opposition was to prat, what tnay we not hope ror when the par ties are acccasihkl f v it mTEJ3-wni3KERS. There b a character In a certain play called Don tenia Whlskerandos $ we do not recollect whe.h tt hit name wu algnlflcant of his valor and other qualification, but rather think it was. A beardless 8nnisb Ambassador was sent to the Sublime Porte. The Grand Solgnor expressed much Indignation that the Spanish Kin; should send him an Ambassador without a beard; for thej are great lovers of beard at Constantinople The Ambassador said : "If my muter had thought a beard essential to a Minister at tbj Court, he would bare sent a goat, and not A fentkm, atl am." A gentleman addressed a Cardinal at dinner, saying, "There is something an. the beard of yonr Greatness." Ilia Eminence not) noticing the ad monition, the gentleman supposed be had omitted some point of etiquette, and amended his remark by saying : "There is something oa the greatest of your beard." This was, doubtless, a fact. Perhaps the reader may think we intend to quarrel with those who wear the goatees, now so much la rogue. Not so. This article is not for Um. If we were to say anything to them, we might, by supposition, address them in the lan guage of a certain personage, whose naked name ought not, perhaps, to appear in a respectable Commercial paper. , The same personage that Alice, In the play, Insisted was a gentleman, of whom the would not speak disrespectfully, not withstanding the remonstrances of Father Phillip. This same personage might say "go it, my chil dren, while you are young." , i But tt is the Reverend Goatees of the Reverend Clergt that are the objects of this notice cspecl sJ! those of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. We are a member , of that Church, and acknowledge ourselves amenable to its discipline and government, If we say what we ought not to say In the premises. But If we cannot put ' it to oar own people, who can we put it tot - That's the question. ,-. Tbe.sW of the Reverend Goatees all along : shore, from ear to ear, Is already before the pub lic W do not apeak in a matter of their enlarge, mentor extension in any particular; we would only advise as to their management in the article of preaching. Don't think we assail the Pulpit. 'The Pulpit, therefore, and I name it, filled with Solemn awn; ; ' ' Which bids me well beware with what intent I 'touch that holy thing." No it k not the falfU it is the goatee that de ' mands our admonition, applause, or animadver sion, is the ease may be. ISo Reverend Gents, when you ret up to hold forth, please to place the right thumb a short dis taice below the right ear, and the fore-finger of the same band as near the left ear as may be While yon repeat the, words: "Brethren, be net eonfomed to the fashions of this world," draw the finger and thumb together, across this badge of - piety and honor; and let finger and thumb rest for f a moment on the point of the chin. Then, Keep ing the thumb to the point of the chin aforesaid, distend the hand, and rock it to and fro "la comi- - If yon add the thumb of the left hand to ' , the little finger of the right in the position afore said, and give a few motions of both hands, "Us arnica," as aforesaid, the effect will be very singu- - By all this the auditory may not perceive much , 4n regard to the greatness of yonr intellect, but , .. they sm certainly appreciate "the grealwts of yow beard"-"'f,' -,.

The Raleigh Bcglster g.veaag.c4 account jf the condition and prospects of this Institution. The present session opens with 245 students, and the next catalogue will, probably, show 800 on the IW of matriculates for the year, This resqlt is chiefly attributed to northern tanaticism, whlob induces southern, people to educate their c,hP4ren at home. " r'-j: : - 'i V' X"r: : ; ' RE-ORGANIZATION OF THS. NAVY. ' The National Intelligencer ofj tyoodajr has the. following synopsis of the 113 h,iclj baa. -csased the Senate relative to the Nat U rery 1 im portant:; : " ' ' "It contemplates. Important altcrationa in that branch of the public service, as wcl)hj system of, retirement or furhingh as by future promotion to higher rajk than that st present o?JpIa.lv rec ognised in the Nary. The grades of Commodore and Lieutenant Commander are established, and those of Pawed Midshipman and MaJer are su perseded. Another feature of the bill U,thesmor lioratioa of the material of the service, by a pro vision that five boys shall be selected annually for education at the Naval Academy from among those who shall have shown themselves most meritori ous ; and, in addition to these, that ten appoint ments shall be tnsdo at large annually by the President of the United States. Another new fea ture is tho erection of a "Bureau of Uje personnel of the Navy." Its head will have duties skin to those now performed by the Adjutant Qpoeral qf the Army. A permaoent Judge Advocate i& also. among tho appointments to be provided for." xmx RIDICULOUS. Ob Thursday last, Madame Alboni, with her hushsnd, visited he gallery of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, to listen to thedesate, when Dr.- Coggeswell, who had been notified of the presence of the celebrated contralto, rose and said that a distinguished lady being now present in the eastern gallery of the House, as a mark of respect to her, and as a duty be owed his copstltu. cnts, he moved that Madamo Alboni be allowed to take a seat in the body of the House. Mr. Stevenson, of Boston, rose, and with manU fest feeling, said : "Mr. Speaker, I sow that tho motion be rejected," Mr. Prince, of Essex, moved taamend the mo tion, so as to provide that Madame AJbonlsct next to the member from Bedford (Mr.. Coggeswell.) Mr. Coggesweil "I accept the amendment." Here it was observed that Madame Alboni, (no doubt with the view to prevent the members ren dering themselves still more ridiculous) had sud denly disappeared from the gallery, when the mo tion of Dr. Coggesweil was withdrawn and, atcr agreeing that no notice of the aWr should appear upon the record, an adjournment took place.

FRANCE. The news, to the exclusion of everything else, is the Emperor s marriage to M'lle Montlgo, which has taken Paris by surprise, and was unfavorably received by the Bourse. M'lle is a Spaniard, 25 years of ago, a blonde, and grand-daughter of the British Consul at Malaga. Her mother was sn Irish woman, named Fitzpatrick, and her father, tho younger son of a Spanish family, who fortu natcty, j the death of Uta older Wothor, enoeccd ed to tho titles of Count Montigo, Duke of Teba and Pennamsndo. Her sister is Duches of Abba and Mademoiselle is herself Countess of Teba. The proposal for her hand vas formally made by the Emperor on Sunday last, and wa.a pf course acceded to. The next day the happy bridegroom communicated to his ministers that his determi nation was taken, and that it was a marriage of affection. One report says that the Ministers, ex cepl one, resigned, but that the Emperor refused to accept their resignations. It is said that the civil marriage has already ta ken place, and that the religious ceremonies will be held on the 27th insf., January, on which oc casion Prince Napoleon Jerome also will espouse the daugbtci of Prince of Wagram, grand-daughter to Marshal Bcrtbicr. The Senato Legislative body and Council were summoned on the 22d nlt.,oon, to receives com munication from the Emperor relative to his marriage.

The forms in wbicn the disease showed itself, )n my case, were, great acidity of the sto mach, loss of appetite, extreme flatulence, severe constipation of the bowels, and violent headache. Feeling desirous that a knowledge of yonr valoa blo remedy may reach others similarly afflicted, I take great pleasure In recording my .testimony to its curative power; and wouUf also remark," that while on a visit at home a short time sln.ee, I ad ministered a part of a bottle to a number or my afflicted friends, wi th great iccss.
