' :' We copy the -following account of the birth of the "King of Algiers" alias the Son of France, for the. sole, purpose of showing our readers the littleness of what . is called human greatness. The whole af fair seems to be 'too absurd and ridiculous to entitle it to laughter. Pity for human weakness and utter contempt for such fol ly are the only sentiments that can be felt by the people of our America. The Empress was taken ill at 5 o'clock on Saturday morning, the 15th. " Notice of the fact was immediately sent, by order of the Princess of issung, Grand Mistress of the impress's Household, to all the mem bers of the Bonapartd family, the Ministers, senate, Deputies, Council of State, and high functionaries pf the Government. The Senate soon : afterwards assembled at tne uuxemoourg ana me ue; utiea in their Chamber, where' they remained en permanence. The officers of 6tate assembled and remained all day and night of Satur day in a chamber close (o that of the Em presar- The Emperor, the Princess of Ess- ling, and Madame Montigo, the Empress's mother, remained in the Empress's apart ment. Ibe Municipal .Council of Paris assembled en permanence at the Hotel de Ville, and crowds of citizens gathered a round the Tuileries. At a quarter to three o'clock on Sunday morning the 1 6tb, the child was born. All the officers of State above referred to were pieaent at his birtb. The ceremony of ondoiement, or preliminary baptism, was performed with much pomp in the chapel of the Tuileries. Near the altar, on the Gospel side, stood Cardinals Dupont, Govts set, Donnet, and Marlot, and M. Legrand, cure of St. Germain l'Auxerrois, the Impe rial parish. Opposite, on the Epistle side, were the' Bishop of Nance, first Cbaplnin of the Emperor, and his clergy. In the centre of the sanctuary, in front of the Em peror's armchair, was a table covered with white drapery, bearing a splendid silver gilt baptistery. Next to it were the Ad mirals and Marshals of France and other high dignitaries, the Grand Masters of tbe Imperial Household and the Masters of the Ceremonies, the Princess Mathilde and the Ladies of Honor of the Empress. At half' past 12 o'clock the Emperor entered tbe chapel, accompanied by the members of the Imperial Tamil v. the Ministers, the Pres idents of tbe Senate and Legislative body, and the Grand Master of the Ceremonies. Mass was celebrated by the Bishop of Auras, after which foe Abbe Deplace preached a sermon from the text, " Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord," and concluded with a prayer for tbe child in these terms: tt Bestow on him. the ne nius and magnanimity of his father, the -kindness and inexhaustible .charity of his mother, the sincere . faith and devotion of both ; and, to sum up all in one wish, be stow on him a heart worthy of his destiny and his name." T A name was then bestowed on the in fant, 44 Napoleon Eugene Louis Jean Jo seph." '1 his - appellation 4was entered in tbe parish register and signed by tbe Em peror, being witnessed by Prince Marat, the Duke of Alba, Marshal Valliant, Min ister of War, M. Troplon President of the Senate, and Count de Momy, President of me uegisiaiure. : - - On Sunday morning the Senate and Le gislature met at 8 o'clock, and received the official announcement of the birth of an heir to the throne, which was greeted with the utmost cordiality. -The illuminations at Paris were the most general that bad been seen fojcyears. Not only were all tbe ; public offices, theatres, ministries, &c , brilliantly lit up, but pri vate bouses almost every where hung out many colored lanterns. The Place de a Concorde presented a very striking appear ance from a blaze of gas at the Ministry of Marine and Gardo Meuble. The Le gislative Cham 6er was also brilliantly lit up. ' Along the railings of the garden of the Tuileries lampions were arranged, and the Rue de Rivoli in all its , length was handsomely illuminated. The Hotel de Ville was magnificently decorated, the front being arranged with numerous flags aod colored escutcheons bearing the Impe rial arms"' Rllt lh tlsnJraaot n.n.m.n. m - . . uaiiuawuKlk. iflUDUMir tation was in front of the Bourse.'

The Baby Excitement Continue All Sorts , of Compliments to the Emperor and Em press Speech from Napoleon -Influence of the Isaby on the t race Uucstton. The Tuileries has been crowded with all sorts of deputations. . The Emperor's replies have been generally complimenta ry, but in answering the deputation of tbe Congress, he made use of the expression "I am happy that Providence has sent me a son at the moment when an era of general reconcv.uuion is announcing useij to juurope. 1 shall bring him up with the feeling that nations must not be egotistical, and that the repose of burope depends on the pros pen ty of each nation ' : . These words are looked upon in Paris as a sort of confirmation of the general be lief in peace, the stock market has in consequence been nrm, and prices more buoyant. Threes had varied from 72f. 85c to 73f. 5c. ; v;--'. The Corps Diplomatique are Received. Tbe foreign Corps Diplomatique was al so received, and was favored with a sight of the child on whom the Papal Nuncio took the opportunity of bestowing a bene diction. The French and English papers report at length all the addresses and re pjies. One of the most noticeable is the reply made by the Emperor to the Senate as follows and . intended as an answer to those - who took exception .to tbe use of tbe Bourbon appellation, enfant de Franee: What is Meant by UA .Child of Fiance " "Monsieur le President du Senat : Tbe Senate has participated in my joy that Heaven has given me a son, and you have hailed as a happy event tbe birth of a child of France. , I intentionally make use of that expression, a child of France. The Emperor Napoleon, my uncle, who applied to the new system created by the revolu tion all that was great and elevated in tbe old regime, resumed that ancient denomin ation of 'the children of France.' The reason is, gentlemen, that when an heir is born who is destined to perpetuate a na tional system, that child is not only the scion of a family, but it is the son of the whole country, and that appellation points out to him his duties. If this were true un der the old monarchy, which represented exclusively the privileged classes, how much more is it now, when the sovereign is the elect pf the nation, the first citizen of tbe county, and tbe representative of the interests of all." The Child is Visited Again. Each of the deputations were ushered into the-apartment, where tbe child was reposing in the magnificent cradle present ed by the city of Paris. At the head of the bed stood M ime Bruat, gouvernante, the Princess d'Essling, and the under gouv ernantes, and by the wide were Count Bac chiochi, Col. Fleury, Col Edgar Ney and Count d'Arjuson, chamberlain. After the several persons had passed in front of the cradle, they went to another room and in scribed their names on the visitors' book. An Amnesty Declared An amnesty is declared to alL political offenders who will return and take the re quired allegiance. The Empress Godmother of 2,000 Children, lt is calculated from statistical tables that the number of children . born on the 16th of March, to all of whom the Etnpe rorand Empress are godfather and god mother, must be about 2,000. Each child is to receive a gift of 3,000 francs. All the boys must be named Louis Eugene, and all the girls Eugene Louise. A sum of 100,000 francs is to be given to the poor to redeem articles trom pledge. 1 he Market Women Present Boquets. The market women (dames de la haUe) sent a deputation to see the imperial child, ana presented mm wua superb boquets. THE DEACON AND THE IRISHMAN. Under this head we find the following amusing story going the rounds: , A few months ago, as deacon Ingalls, of bwampscott, it. 1., was travelling through the western partot tne State of New York, he fell in with an Irishman who had lately arrived in this country, and who was in quest of a brother who came- before him and settled in some of the diggins in that vicinity. ; . Pat was a strong," athletic man, a true Catholic, and had never seen tbe interior of a Protestant church. It was a pleasant Sabbath morning that brother Ingalls met at who inquired the road to the nearest church. ' Ingalls was a gdbd and a pious man. He told Pat he was going to church him self, and invited his new made acquaintance to keep Lim company thither, (his place of destination being a small Methodist meet ing bouse near by.) There - was a great revival there at the time, and one of the deacons, (who, by the way, was very small in stature,) invited brother' Ingalls to take a seat in his pew. He accepted tbe invi. tation and walked in, followed by Pat, who ooked tn vain to find the alter, etc. After he wa seated, be turned to brother Ingalls, and in a whisper, which could be beard all around, inquired: - ."bhure, an' iss't this a hmtic church?'; 'Hash " sid Ingalls. i "If you speak a loud word, they will put you out" .- Uevil a word -will 1 spake, at all, at all." replied Pat ; :-'?;'.":- The meeting was opened by prayer by the pastor. : Pat was eyeing , him very closely, when an old gentleman, who was standing in the pew directly in front of Pat, shouted: "glory." . - "Hist s-t y clear devil," rejoined Pat, with bis loud whisper, which was plainly heard by - the minister be vdacent, and' don't make a blackguard of yourself." ' 1 be parson grew more and more fervent in bis devotions. - Presently the deacon ut- lered an audible groan. "Hist-st, ye black guard, have you no dacency at all, at all t" said Pat. at the same moment giving tne deacon a punch in the ribs which caused bim nearly to lose his eauilibrium. The minister stopped, and extending bis hand in a supplicating manner, said : . "Brethren, we cannot be disturbed in this way. Will some one put that man out ?" - - - - "Yes, your rivirince," shouted Pat, "I will I" and suiting the action to the word, he collared ' the deacon, and to the utter horror and astonishment of the pastor, broth er Ingalls, and the whole congregation, he dragged him through the aisle, and with a trememlons kick he landed bim in tbe ves tibule of the church. .
