Whither has good will departed ?--Where are the white- winged messengers of peace? Hundreds of thousands, who have heretofore knelt as brethren at the same altars, professing the same faith and registering the same vows, are now in arms against each other, upon battle fields, where desperate hostility is goaded on by yet more desperate hate. All the memories of the past — even the kindly ties and gentle offices of yesterday — are as things that never were. We have begun the saturnalia of France, when she "Got drunk with blood, to vomit crime." Even the pulpits through one-half the land now find their texts among the watchwords of human bitterness, instead of preaching the good tidings which Heaven sent to us at Bethlehem. And the Government — which some believe to have been set over us by God--what part does it bear in this crisis of our destiny — what efforts is it making to bring us back to the Paradise we have forsaken ?

Death of a Survivor of Moscow and Austerlitz. --Michael Kersher died in Flagstaff (Me.) on the 12th ult., aged 85 years and 6 months. The Farmington Patriot, of the 28d ult., says: "The deceased was a soldier in the armies of France for fourteen years and nine months, and served under Napoleon Bonaparte in his campaign in Italy, Spain, Austria, Germany, Prussia and Russia; was in the battles of Moscow, Austerlitz, and several others. He was wounded severely three times — once in the head by a bullet, once by the stroke of a cutlass on the head, and once by a bayonet thrust through the thigh. Three years of his services were spent in the artillery and the remainder in the cavalry."
The harvest in French. --The harvest which is being made up during the present fine weather will be brought home dry, which is a great point gained. If the weather favors for ten days longer, the wheat harvest will be completely finished throughout France. Previous accounts of deficient crops are in general confirmed, but it is added that the harvest in Loraine will be good, both as regards quantity and quality. No positive information is received with respect to the wheat crop in the Northern departments. It would consequently be premature to pronounce a decided opinion on the produce of the present harvest. There is no doubt, however, that the wheat crop will be deficient to the extent of compelling the French people to demand a supply from foreign countries--European Times.
