One of our English con tem notaries mentions that the works of several English and American authoresses intended for the use of children will shortly translated into French, to be used in the French primtrr schools. Among the authoresses cited is Mrs.

Irwli, who has reoently written a worc of the above description. This rage for the translation of elementary worss lu the EnglUh language is one of the results of the new system of piiaiary instruction which the Republican T6Kinie in France has the crodit of inaugurating. There has hitherto been a great want of elementary wotks within the comprehension of children written in the Frenen language, aud it Is row sought to supply the deficiency by the translation of euuh works in the English language.

Hastings at midnight and requested to be conveyed to this city.

Barman accompanied Mrs. Owens, who went for her effects, as a friend, Owens and his wife having separated. The New Orleans Times is in error In its version that Owens had any family charges against Bnrman. A Democratic mass meeting will take place at the Conrt Houee to morrow evening, when Gen. W.T.
