-It is asserted that the new French Minis?

-The Grant brother-in-law who presides

Into very warm water. The Louisiana State
Central Republican Committee have united
-frith every Federal office-holder in the
State in declaring on paper that he is to?
tally unfit for the position he holds, and re?
quest his removal.
-The New York papers say the town elec?
tions throughout the State show handsome
.Democratic gains. The great revival te not
confined to any particular section, but has
broken out in the north and west as well as
the east. In Oneida County there is a gain of
four Democratic supervisors; In Renssalaer of
two; in Ulster of one; they also carry fifteen
?out of the twenty-five towns in Erie, and many
towns have gone Democratic this year that
have been opposition since General Taylor's
time. Thc City of Elmira gained a substantial
Democratic victory after one of the most spirit?
ed and obstinate fights ever waged in a politi?
cal contest, and the fruits ol the struggle in
other localities are most encouraging.
-The Carnival ia New Orleans closed bril?
liantly. Those weird ones, "The Mistick Krewe
of Cornus,''. whose procession, tableaux, and
ball on Mardi Gras night are looked forward
to as the great sensation of thc carnival, se?
lected as a subject for their entertainment this
. season "The History of Louisiana from 1539
-to 1815," each epoch being illustrated with
-great taste and effect, first by a procession
.through thc streets, lighted up by innumerable
lamps, and subsequently by a series of beauti?
ful tableaux, in which were grouped very ar
t Isiically the various historical characters, from
D?Soto to Jackson, connected with that State.
Thousands in the city and from many South?
ern and Western cities besides witnessed the
gorgeous pageant, and about fifteen hundred
of the favored few were invited to witness the
tableaux at the cosy little Varieties Theatre
-and enjoy the ball afterwards. Thus closed
the most attractive season since thc war.
-The New York World has an extraordinary
sensation in Its Paris letter of February 21st,
published Saturday Acccording to the gossip
of the French Salons, the Emperor, Napoleon
III, died on the 8th of September last, under
the knife of Surgeon Ricord, and in his place
there reigns the Prince Imperial, as Napoleon
IV, with Empress Eugenic as Regent. The
story runs that a near relative of the Emperor,
though not in the line of succession, and bear?
ing a close resemblance, appears in the place
of Napoleon on the few occasions on which he
is supposed to appear in public. The correspon?
dent says the plan originated, with the late
Emperor, who feared European complications,
and that before his death he received a promise
from England, and it is is believed from Rus?
sia, that tiley would aid in maintaining the
Prince on the throne. The letter gives various
reasons for crediting the story, and says it ex?
plains the recent change of policy on the part
of the French Government. Nevertheless it
appears very like an easily constructed canard.
-As thc time draws near for the trial ot
.Daniel McFarland, Tor the killing of Albert D.
Richardson, in November last, public interest
in this celebrated case is revived, and public
.anticipations is keenly aroused by the proba?
bilities of-startling disclosures, which have
fbeen openly hinted at. The counsel engaged
:for the defence are Messrs. John Graham,
^Charles S. Spencer, and Eldridge T. Gerry, all
gentlemen of well-known legal attainments,
and all remarkable for pertinacity in behalf of
.their clients. The prosecution will, of course,
t>e conducted by Judge Garvin, the district at?
torney, and in view of his well-known dislike
for the introduction of private counsel, it is
probable that no attorneys outside of the
district attorney's office will take any promi?
nent part in the conduct ot the case for the
people. The evidence thus far taken in pre
llniinary examinations by tbe prisoner's coun?
sel has been very voluminous. An immense
number of private examinations have been
made, and the investigations has extended
over a very large range of topics and of years,
some commissions tor taking testimony having
been seut as far as Europe,
-Another Arctic expedition to the North
Pole is contemplated by the indefatigable ex?
plorer, Captain Hall, who is now in Washing?
ton, endeavoring, a:ul with every prospect of
success, to obtain a suitable appropriation to
provide lite necessaries fer his voyage. He in?
tends to lit out a steam propeller of one hun?
dred and fifty tons, and a topsail schooner of
ono hundred and twenty-five tons. His route,
as now projected, will be into Jones' Sound,
and thence, ns sea and land may permit, up
towards the Pole. After getting the vessel as
far as practicable, he proposes to secure them
in harbor, making the rest of the distance by
means of the Esquimaux dogs and sledges.
Thc object of the voyage is ol a three-fold
character : first, for a geographical discovery;
second, for the advancement of the interests
of science: and third, tor command. If he
cannot get the money to do this, be will try to
have a government vessel detailed to carry
him as far as Hartstene Bay, lat. 78 deg. 17 min.
N , and to leave him to make his headquarters
there, ne hopes by such aid to "accomplish
the determination of his soul," which is "to
place his foot on the northern extremity of the
axis of the globe." Senator Patterson, of New
Hampshire, will shortly present a bill to aid
the explorer, which will give him, It is said, an
appropriation of $150,000.
Thc New Apportionment of Represen?
tation.
The new State Constitution provides that j
tho House of Repr?sentatives shall consist
of one hundred and twenty-four members,
apportioned among the several counties ac?
cording to the number of inhabitants in
each; olso, that each county shall have at
least one representative, and that any defi?
ciency in the whole number of representa?
tives be supplied by assigning additional
representatives ta the counties having the
largest surplus fractions. For the purpose
of correcting the apportionment made by the
Constitutional Convention of 1868, a census
of the State was ordered to be taken in 1869,
and it was also ordered that an assignment
of the representatives, according to the
census, be made at the session immediately
after its completion.
In accordance with this direction, the
taking of the census was begun last year,
but no general result was obtained until just
about the time of the adjournment of the
Legislature. No new apportionment, there?
fore, was made, and unless an extra session
be called, the October elections will be held
under the old arrangement. It is neverthe?
less highly important to ascertain the effect
of the census, now completed, upon the differ?
ent counties, and we, therefore, print the [
following table, which shows the number of |
representatives now allowed under the con?
stitution of 1868, and the number that will
be allowed under, the census of 1870:

A striking feature of the foregoing table is
the loss of three representatives in Charles?
ton County, but in order to show the politi?
cal value of the different changes, wc print
thc following table, which shows the number
of representatives allowed each county in
whick there is a white majority, comparing
the allotment of 18U8 with that of 1870:

This table shows a net gain of two repre?
sentatives in tho counties having a white
majority.
In the counties having a majority of color?
ed voters, the result of thc change is shown
in the following table:

These tables show that the new appor?
tionment will make but few changes in the
representation of the different counties, the
result of the whole being in favor of the
counties in which the white voters arc in the
majority.
THE Boston Traveller, noting thc wealth
that judicious advertising has brought to
some men, says "that no advertisement has
"had a greater or more unexpected result
"than a little three-line notice recently ap?
pearing in a corner of a New York paper.
"It has created a sensation all over the
"country, and has already driven three Con?
gressmen in disgrace from public life,
"while others are trembling in their seats
'.from the same cause."
Give a Fair Chance to All.
It is argued in favor of opening cadetehip
appointments to public competition that the
plan has been already tried at West Point
with great success. In 1863 fifty-three
cadets were appointed in the usual manner,
by Congressmen, and forty-six were picked
from the ranks of the army, for good quali?
ties and fitness alone. Of the fifty-three ap?
pointed, fifteen failed at the first half-yearly
examination, we are told; while of the forty
six chosen for merit not one failed. Only a
third of the fifty-three were graduated, but
nearly all of the forty-six. Of about 5500
cadets who have entered West Point, about
3000 have failed. The institution, we aro
told, does not graduate more than a third of
those who are sent to it as cadets, and the
professors expressed themselves as eminent?
ly pleased with the forty-six young men sent
to it from the ranks and chosen for merit.
Sqnelchlng a. City Government.
The Radicals of Louisiana have devised
the boldest and most direct plan that bas
yet been tried for the purpose of robbing
the people of the right of self-government.
The city election in New Orleans was to come
off, according to its charter, the present
month, and the city being Democratic, the
result was by no means questionable. The
carpet-bag and negro Legislature, however,
resolved to defeat this and take away from
the people the management of their own
local affairs. They accordingly passed an
act, a few days ago, postponing the muni?
cipal election to November, abolishing the
Councils, and authorizing the carpet-bag
Governor to appoint a Mayor at a salary of j
$7600 per annum, and seven bureaucrats, or
commissioners, at "salaries of S5000 each,
and with full legislative powers for the city.
Under the charter, the Aldermen and Com?
mon Councilmen of New Orleans served
without remuneration. The citizens, of |
course, are indignant at this outrageous and
oppressive piece of legislative tyranny.
