This is gratifying news to a- large eircle of friends "whom Mr. Hackett has drawn around himself in the past fifteen years, and the enviable reputation of Dohan" Grocery" will, we feel assured, he fully sustained by the new proprietor. Mr. Hackett has our beet wishes for success. The Mistick Krewe of Comtjs.

The time is rapidly approaohing when the sound of revelry will again resound through our streets, and thousands will gather to witness the annual procession of that mysterious organization, the Mistick Krewe of Comas. It is whispered about that this year's pageant will, in the originality of the leading idea and the splendor of its appointments, eclipse all its predecessors, brilliant as they were. Rumor farther has it that a well known citizen has been applied to in behalf of the Mistick Krewe. Col. Moody, it is rumored, has been requested to assist in importing from Europe the costumes necessary for the occasion.

They may likely already have arrived at his shirt emporium, at the corner of Canal and Royal streets, where tbey may, perhaps, be stowed away among his celebrated 9 champion shirts, which are in so great demand.

Mrs. having just purchased a new one at Hogan's, No. 25 Canal street, with its new dumping grate and ash drawer, was telling Mrs. 8. all about those new improvement.

Gambetta is reported to have declared that Paris shall become a second Moscow rather than that a surrender shall be made on ignominious terms. Rothschild has donated to the mayors of Paris 200,000 francs to clothe the poor.

Cotton is depressed in consequence of enormous receipts. Liverpool advices of Friday report sales of Orleans at 8 5-16. Antelope. 17 Texas still continues to be the Mecca for those inhabitants of other Southern States who, disss tified with the existing state of affairs, are leaving, or making preparations to leave, the scenes of their childhood for a more propitious section of the country. From a gentleman just arrived from Bullock county, we learn that within the last six months the population of Bullock, Macon, Pike and Barbour counties has been greatly decreased, between five and six hundred of the white inhabitants having left for Texas, where they acquired prop erty, and have now permanently settled.

The counties mentioned oomprise the richest cotton land in Alabama, no cotton that classes inferior to Low Middling being raised there. The system of free labor, whioh the planters of Alabama have, it appears, not yet learned to utilize in the right way the low prices of cotton, and other drawbacks have discouraged the rural population of Alabama and other Southern States, and hence this large exodus for Texas. While it is to be regretted that these States are decreasing in white population, we can only congratulate our rising sister State of Texas upon this valuable addition to her population. The Proposed Division of East Feliciana. We would direct the attention of the honorable members of the Legislature to the fact that the citizens of East Feliciana have protested in public meeting against the proposed division of that parish.

The protest is made irrespective of party or race, and, as we presume it has been laid before the honorable members, we refrain from reproducing it. The reasons urged against division are cogent, and we trust members will see the scheme in its trne light a job to provide needy adventurers with fat offices at the expense of taxpayers. The Morning Star. This, the recognized organ of our English speaking Catholics, enters upon its fourth volume with the next number.

The ladies of Munich have resolved to uresent a laurel wreath to the Emperor William and erect a statue of Von Moitke. RThe Times says the rumors respecting the impending capitnlatien are oontiict-ing. The only positive news seems to be that negotiations are in progress.

Paris consents to uarlev and is. therefore. ready to capitulate. Who will say boldly, Let us capitulate." A few days since, while the usual crowd of women were waiting for their wretched rations of three hundred gram mes, one uoor wretch, half dead with fatigue, cold and hunger, enoiente, and wasted with misery, exclaimed, Man Uxeu, que cela finesse." one was immediately surrounded by other starving and suffering women, who abused and and was rescued by some men and carried away in an amublance.

27. The following is the substance of our Paris correspondent's letter dated 23d This evening official orders were issued, forbidding future meeting of clubs and suppressing the incendiary journals, Combat and Reveille. The people generally approve the firm stand taken against the rioters by Gen. Vinoy. Indeed, much satisfaction is felt at the great change effected in rules during the past 48 hours.

For a few days past it has been evident that BucjU must be his fate- The people are willing to admit his honesty and bravery, but conscientiously, few if any deny his complete failure in the crisis. His four months of rule have been four months of decrees, proclamations and promises, and not one successful hght. He has failed to organize the army during three months, for it is little better than an armed mob.

Wnsung, China, December 12, 1870, reports the Navy Department's return to that place with the officers, staff and guard, in company with Mr. Seward and party from Pekin.

During the journey to and return from Pekin, the party were everywhere received with courtesy.

In Pekin, Prince Kung aiSd the officers of the Imperial Cabinet returned a visit whioh had been made them. The interview was agreeable, but their conversation confined to general items. Mr. Seward once or twice touched on serious matters, but discussion was avoided by them. The Admiral writes as follows I cannot but see ruin to the present dy nastv.

Temples, once magnificent, are in ruins. Roads made at vast expense ana more perfect when new than any I have ever seen, are now im passable, having had no repairs apparently for centuries. Marble bridges, of fine proportions, have piers swept away and arches fallen while neglect, decay or ruin marks every public building or work. The people are still industrious, vigorous and in the main well clad atd fed, according to their own ideas, and seemingly contented.
