He is now an inmate of a lunatic asylum in Germany. -Tho Paymaster General, it ia understood, baa received an order from the Secretary of War to reduce the clerical force of his department. It is estimated that about 400 clerks have been dis? missed by similar recent orders. -The recepta of the Paris Exhibition from April lat to September 10th were just ?800,000. A further anm or ?60,000 will be required to cover ex? penses. It is supposed that this will be forthcom? ing during the seven weeks that remain. -A feature of the Parisian fruit market ?B the abundance of ?tia wherries, or rather their long du? ration.

During thia month thirty-five miles will be added to the running portion, which will bring it fairly into the Salt Lake basin, and materially add to ita revenues. -M. Grandidier bas presented to the French Academy an egg of the remarkable extinct bird, the Epiornis, of Madagascar. Having lately re? turned from the island, he says the egga of Epior? nis are found on a plain at one aide of the island, and at a height of several metres above th a sea level. Strange that though numerous eggs have been discovered, the bones of this creature are rarely found. From what M. Grandidier has learnt from the natives, there seems little doubt that the Epiornis is extinct. -During the last homeward trip of the - from Aspinwall, the steerage passengers were so numerous as to make them uncomfortable. As for sleeping accommodations it was aptly describ? ed by a Californian who approached the Captain and said: "I should like to have a sleeping berth, if you please." "Why, where have you been Bleeping these last two nights since we left ?" "Wa'al, I've been sleeping a-top of a Bick man; but he's got better now, and won't stand it no longer 1" -On some of the plantations in Louisiana the grinding season will commence about the 12th instant. The crops in St. Bernard Pariah are very promising. The total crop of twenty-four parish? es in the State before the war (1861-2), was 459,410 hogsheads, or about 18,000 to a pariah. The crop for the year 1864-66, one of the worst seasons known in Louisiana, was 6668. The New Orleans Commercial Bulletin remarks that parties capable of judging estimates the crop of the coming year as high aa 110,000 hogsheads. -The annual return rel a Un cr to treasure trove shows that the principal articles claimed by the Solicitor to the Treasury, on behalf of the Grown, in the past year were 2940 silver cotas found at Stamford, f heir estimated value ia ?95 8s. They had not been disposed of when the return was made. In December last 1797 silver coins and some fragmenta, found in Chancton, Sussex, were also claimed on behalf of the Crown. Their value was ?44 18s. Cd. Two hundred and ninety-eight of them were given to the farmer on whose land the coins were found, to the rector, and to local mu? seums; the remainder were sold to the British Museum, ind the proceeds carried to the "treasure trove account." -The New York Atlas says: "The extraordinary phenomenon of a man marrying a man occurred in North Carolina a few days ago. A gentleman wooed and won the hand of a young lady-the day for the nuptials was appointed, and the groom carno to time, aa did, apparently, the bride. But it seems she bad a juvenile brother resembling her BO closely, that,- when di essed in calico, none but the most practiced eye could discover the dif? ference between them. He piasen ted himself, was saluted with a kiss, and an authorized pre? late of the magisterial persuasion went through the ceremony of making the twain one. Music and dancing filled the hour, and all went on charm? ingly until-the oat was uncloaked. -A curious work has been published at Breslau giving the result of an examination of the eyes of ten thousand and sixty school children, The pro? portion of short-sighted children was 17.1 per cent., or seventeen hundred and thirty among ten thousand and sixty. No village children were lound to be short-sighted until they had been tome time at school-at least half a year. There were, in proportion, four times as many short? sighted children in the town (Breslau) as in the country, and short-sightedness increased general v with the demands made upon the children. The author of the work attributes the evil in a great measure to the bad construction of school bench? es, which force the children to read with their books close before their eyes, and with their heads held downward. -The New Orleans Times gives the following figures of the Louisiana registry : "There were in all registered 127,688, of which number 82,865, or nearly two-thirds, were colored. AB all the ne? groes were registered, the colored population of the State must have decreased since 1860, for then the number of colored males over twenty-one years ot age was 91,000. Be that as it may, it ?B certain that the colored registered voters had a olear ma - , jority of more than 40,000 over the Conservative whites who had been permitted to register, for the 44,728 of registered whites embrace not only the Conservative whites, but the Radical whites as well, whioh would leave only about 40,000 Conser? vativos in all. Being thus fraudulently deprived of their strength by Radical tactics, what induce? ment had the Conservative whites to join in the election?" -A Melbourn 3 paper announces the arrival in that city of Mr. Christian Friedrich Schafer, a German traveller, who came overland from Syd? ney, toe greater part of the way on foot. Mr. Schafer is of dwarfish stature, from the effects of an injury to the spine received in youth, but in spite of this physical drawback he has, during the last fifteen years, travelled over a great part of the surface of the world, mostly as a pedestrian. He has passed through every country in Europa, through Asia Minor, Syria, Egypt, North Africa, and across the width of North America, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, on foot and alone, ste has in the course of his wanderings compiled a burge mass of observations on the customs and charac? ter of the various populations through which he has passed; carries a book of credentials, in which his passports are ait ached, and in which -ho has autographs of potentates, ambassadors, generals, governors, consuls, mayors, and mandarins, which, when his tour is completed, will be an interesting collection. He proposes to make a complete tour of these colonies, and to pass through Eastern Asia (India and China), finishing his long ram? blings by a bold journey on foot through Russian Tartary back to his home. -A writer in Science Gossip ?tye : "A near neigh? bor, upon whose veracity I can rely, recently open td a drain in Kent, when he made the following discovery : At tho mouth of the drain wera placed two large stones, in measurement nearly two feet square and three inches thick ; the ons at the top lasted closely upon the one beneath. Upon lifting i (from the lower etona, the skeletons of five frogs were discovered; they were in s circle in the cen? tre of th? stones, quito fiat. Upon taking ono of thain up and holding it to th* Uefct, ibero waa only a threadlike appearance of bones between th? dry, flattened and fleshless skins ; thea* ' akim? Were clear sud beautifully marked. In thia state they were sean by ?evvfal parsons, and by each of them the frogs were considered tobo dead; but When tba water commenced to flow om thom there was a ?light gasping perceived in the threat?*of each; by degrees thc bodies swelled, and Ufo and nation returned. Then, to the surprise of tba beholders, th? frogs ?prang np, and ran away into the diraiu. HowdkJ thoaefrogsget beneath the eton? that covered th. lower one so closely ? There was no drain.* CURRENT TOPICS. AUSTRIA IS gradually falling into tho lin? of civilisation. Sadowa, ' which proiuood ao many other changea, has waked np th? schoolmaster. There, is at last a chanco of superoeding the mo? notonous narrow routine of monkish instruction with something like real knowledge. A conven? tion of two thousand school teachers recently as? sembled in a spaoions hall in tho Imperial palaco at Vicua to deliberate upon the means of improv? ing the Bystem of education. Tbs resolution? show the immense progresa of Hbcal ideas in the old crumbling monarchy. They are, of course, far behind the Amoricau standard, but they are immeuse for Austria. Among other changes it is demanded that the schools shall be emancipated from tho influence of the priests; that teachers shall be protected by law both in regard to their appointment and dismissal, that the free choice of books shall be loft to teachers, and that Axed school rates shall sflpercede the present system of school payments by individuals. It was also demanded that the teachers should be secured sufficient ?ala ries for their support. These propositions, accord? ing to our American experience, are admirably calculated to improvo tho Behool system of any country, and if they can bo carried out in Austria they will exercise an important influence in ele vatiug tho condition of the rising generation. A project of law has been prepared, and is now under consideration, which embodies most of the suggestions of the school touchers. The central idea is that the State shall guarantee each school a de ?; reo of local independence. Schools may be s ce tari an; mixed or entirely sectarian, according to the wishes of the majority of the inhabitants in each "school circle." The School Committees are to have control of the schools, and shall con? sist of the burgomaster, a clergyman, a teacher, and elected members. The election of members is, perhaps, tho greatest innovation in the new law, and enables the inhabitants of each circle at libc ty to control the school. The religions opin? ions of the teachers of the secular schools shall uot be inquired into, and clergymen of any de? nomination are prohibited from visiting or inter? fering with them. The only doubtful rea ture of the new lav; is the clause providing for the local election of members of the Behool Committee. It is not quite certain whether the Austrian peasan? try are sufficiently intelligent to appreciate the importance of the educational trusts conferred upon them. But it would seem that any change from the present narrow-spirited, thought-crush? ing system of the priesthood, must be an improve? ment; and in thia, as in other thinga, the people may bo safely trusted to And out their true inter? ests, and to act according to their increasing knowledge. ALLUSION has already been made to the diffi? culties which the British expedition to Abyssinia will have to encounter. There is a great deal of croaking in England upon this subject ; but the most ominious raven has just appeared in Paris, in the person of M. du Bisson, who has just given in the Patrie two columns of doleful fore? bodings about the difficulties to be encountered. He says : " We will not apeak of the Ouedaref worm or of the taenia ; one is safe from them if one never drinks water. We will say nothing of the gigantic defiles, of the absence of roads over mountains inaccessible to Europeans, of the rains that commence in April, a frightful deluge that breaks down the atrongeat tents, changes rivu? lets into torrents and rivers into oceans, drown? ing the plains for two months, and leaving them during the three succeeding months ravaged by tf phus and by the pernicious .fevers engendered by mountaina of detritus in fermentation, of car? casses of animals in putrefaction, under a sun heat of 85 degrees centigrade. We will not point out the desperate position of an invading army in a country which has already been methodi? cally ruined, sacked and burnt, surrounded on all aides by pestilential marshes, hemmed in by fanatical free corps, implacable in their hatred, inexorable in their vengeance, indefatigable in their attacks ; of au army cut off from its base of operations by muddy and mephitic oceans, without communications, without the possibility during one-third of the year of obtaining sup? plies, and consequently obliged to take with it provisions, stores, medicines, ammunition for four mouths. We will not dwell upon the absurdity of employing in endless defiles, strewed everywhere with rocka fallen from the mountaina, a cavalry accustomed to the plaina of India, draught ani? mals accustomed to (he sandy, easy paths of the desert, in provinces where often man alone serves as beast of burden, helping himself with bia feet and banda. All that concerns the skilful English generals and their ao wall organized commis? sariat." M. du Bisson, after thus directing atten? tion to all that he doea not point out, goes on to predict that neither 15,000 nor 20,000 soldiers, In? dian or English, will suffice to rescue the prison era, whom be maintains to be still in the power of Theodore, who will pitilessly out their throats. However, it is possible, it must be granted in reply, that they may be able to take a revenge on the barbarous monarch. THE NEW Y OB a TIMES Bays : "Bli. P. T. Barnum has become the happy possessor of a gorilla, tbs only one ever bi ought alive to thia country. It was captured in Equatorial Africa, YJrought down to the coast by the natives, and shipped on board the Harding, which brought it to this port. Du? ring the voyage the animal became much attached to the Captain of the Harding, allowed him to su? ter his cage and lead him about the decks, and would also jump on the captain's shoulders when ordered. All this amiability of temper, however, soon changed when the vessel arrived in port, and the animal was separated from bia friend the captain. On shipboard he had been placed in ? strong cage, and had been further secured hy a ohain. This cage waa placed in a wagon, and conveyed to the museum on Tuesday last. The jolting of the vehicle irritated the animal, and when the cage was carried np into the Museum it waa found difficult to get the animal out and secure him. As soon as his chain was loosened he seized it and dragged it into his oage in spite of the best efforts of three otrong men, who had hold of the other end of it. A scraper, with a strong iron handle, with which they endeavored to reobtain the end of the chain, was seised by the animal and bent double. During all this time the animal roared and grunted furiously. Finally he was got into his new cage, and secured by a strong chain placed around his nook attached to a beam beneath his cage. Yesterday he was exhibited publicly, and appeared to have recovered some of his good humor. His keeper, Mr. Davidson, thinks that in a week or two he will be aa tame and playful as a kitten. He does not much resemble one at present. He is scarcely as formidable an animal as Professor Du Chaillu's descriptions would lead one to expect. He. is probably about five feet in height, is covered with dark shaggy hair, hts large dark but not fierce eyes, and is evi? dently very agile and muscular, leaping from end to end of his cage at a single bound. Hs is fed on vegetables, and exhibits a strong predilection for spices of all kinds. The gorilla was Recured by Mr. Barnum's agent at a cost of eight thousand dollars lo gold. He la Said to be a very Sae sp?ci? men; he is a young male, appears to be healthy, and will doubtless soon learn to be contented. At present his favorite position is sitting on his haunches, wit? fails back against the rear part of his cage. A wainui in a recent number of Tinsley's Maga gine thus disoourseth of Ladies in France, and their bathing costumes: "Abathing costume ia of course essential, and the fair BAX take especial care that so far as they are concerned this shall be sufficiently coquettish and engaging.

Whether the telegraphic despatches pub? lished this morning are strictly true or not is a matter of small importance. Even if the majorities in Pennsylvania and Ohio should not I urn out to be in favor of the Democrats they certainly prove that Hadioalisni.'has met with a crushing defeat. It? 40,000 majority in Ohio is gone ; T7,000 in Pennsylvania has vanished. Negro suffrage in Ohio is dead. Thank God the people of the North are awaking to the fact that Radicalism means tyranny ; not only tyranny in the South, but subversion of the Constitution over this broad land which was dedicated by our fathers to liberty, and whose liberty must and will be preserved. THE REVOLUTIONISTS. When the Southern States were about to secede, and when the CRITTENDEN Resolutions were under discussion in the Senate of the United States, Mr. CLARKS, of New Hampshire, offered an amendment to strike ont the pream? ble and all the resolutions after the word Re? solved, and insert 'That the provisions of the Constitution are ample for the preservation of the Union and the protection of all the material interests of the country; that it needs to be obeyed rather than amended, and that an extrication from our present danger is to be looked fer in stren? uous efforts to preserve the peace, protect the public property, and enforce the haws rather than in new guarantees for particular interests, compromises for particular difficulties or con? cessions to unreasonable demands. Resolved, That all attempts to dissolve the present Union, or overthrow or abandon the present Constitution, with the hopes or expeo talion of constructing a new one, are danger? ous, illusory and destructive ; that in the opin? ion of the Senate of the United States no s uch reconstruction is practicable, and, therefore, to the maintenance of the existing Union and Con alii ut ion should be directed all the energies of all the departments of the Government and I he efforts of all good citizens." Messrs. CAMBR?N, CHANDLER, SEWARD, SUM? NER, WAUK and WILSON were among the sup? porters of these resolutions. At that time an amendment of the Constitution might have given peaco to the country, and these worthy gentlemen and pure, unselfish patriots desired war. It was necessary to drive every South? ern State into secession, in order to obtain the objects of the Republican party, and from Mr. LINCOLN down to the humblest follower in the ranks, all were determined that there should be no peace, and consequently no compromise, It was, however, necessary to delude the masses, and to do this it was declared by those men who meant revolution that "to the main? tenance of the existing Union and Constitution should be directed all the energies of all the departments of the Government and the efforts of all good citizens." The Constitution of the United States was then a perfect instrument. So at least they solemnly declared, and to that declaration the American people should hold them bound. As the war progressed the party leaders began gradually to expose their real designs. Why conceal longer their objeots when blood had produoed bitterness, and passion bad generated blindness ? The war at its inception waa simply to suppress insurrection, or rather it was pretended to be for that purpose alone. If the people had at that time had reason to suspect that it was for any other purpose, not s man would have been furnished and not a dol? lar would have been raised. The war was fought by the people .on the principles laid down in the CLARKE amendment. ABRAHAM LINCOLN, in his inaugural address, speaking of the duty of the Executive, said, "his duty is to administer the present government aa it oarue into his hands and to transmit lt unimpaired by him to his successor." He further said, in ad' dressing those whom hs called his dissatisfied fellow-countrymen, "you have no oath regis? tered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one "to preserve, protect and defend it." On these principles, and these alone, was the victory Won by the opponents , of secession. . It wss won because the great part of those who took np arms in defence of the Union took them not to punish bat to bring baok their Southern fol? io rf -co??? ? j men. Near three years ago the wsr ended and the Southern people, supposing that the public deotaratiomvof the party in power were made earnestly and honestly, went to work, amended their State Constitutions, abolished slavery and elected their, menbfrs of .Congress. They hoped that, th? war being over, the revolution had ceased. Vein hop? ! idle dream t There was a man from New England who had said no, and had laid down the work to be done. That man had never loved the Union. He had waged war on it daring a whole lifetime. He had de voted brilliant genius, fine accomplishments and glowing oratory to the abuse of the Amer! can Constitution. His model hero was Tons ?alni L'Ouverture, a' neero. whom ha had onen ly proclaimed greater than C?SAR, greater than NAPOLEON, greater than WASHINGTON. He is a Red Republican and revolutionist by nature, and for years he has been the advance guard of the Republican party. In 1864 WENDELL PHIL? LIPS laid down th?platform, lue. letter, dated April 21, he said, speaking of tko Convention the?) about to be called at Cleveland in the fol lowing May, "Let me tell you, the "nation?! policy I advocate, eubdu? the South as rapidly as possible; the moment territory ?ornen under th? flag reconstruct States thus: Confiscate and divide the lande of rebels; extend the fights of suffrage broadly s? possible to While?) and blacks; let th? Federal Constitution prohibit slavery throughout the Union and forbid Staat}? id^flitjsijj} dia^ia^tfcW well the Radical party has obeyed thee* terns, .Betited tc ?hem by their master, WSMDSLL jr?ss.L??fl, is? t?ft leg******^, th? cpi and the wrongs of th? last three Governor SsTMOtra, in a recent H may bs M?aiste?W/ eadtried o?t. Hit word? merit cartful consideration. In speak? ing of "manhood suffrage," bo said: 3*>Xhev solemnly declaro tboy aro in favor of what oycall manhood suffrage. Bo it so, but with it lt go manhood representation. Manhood suf (. moat not be used to destroy tho right of the jority of the people ot this oouutry. fi it ia the natural right of the negro in Florida to have a vote, lt is not his right to havo it count forty-fold moro tn the Senate of tho United at? ion than that of a man in New York. If it is th? natural right of a man in New York to have a vote, it is also his natural right to have it count as muoh in the con? trolling branch of the Government as that of a man in Rhode Island. If this involution is bogun it must go on to its logioal, Just end. It must not roll on the necks of the majority of the American people and stop there, but numbers must be rep? resented, not rotten boroughs or sham States. We implore Senators not to begiu revolution. Your organization is at war with impartial suffrage and impartial representation. If you oontitiue your usurpation the oouutry may not be content with driving you back within constitutional limita. It " may go further, and, acting upon doo ti ?nee you assert, it may crush you out and make another Senate based in truth upon manhood suffrago The country needs peaco, but if you will have revolution it cannot stop at any chalk lines you may mark ont." If the Radical party is allowed to continue in its course the whole fabric of Government must be destroyed. Fortunately tho nows from the North and West indicates that the day of awakening is near, when the people of these United States will regain their lost freedom and will curse the policy and ambition of the Radical leaders.
