irr^T TTUff IT_N?TMRER 1259. CHARLESTON, TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 4, 1870. SIX DOLLARS A YEAR. WASHINGTON. TBE SENATE A SB- TBE GEORGIA BILL. A Stormy Radical Caucus WASHINGTON", March 10. The Republican senators caucused an hour over Georgia. Bingham's amendment was the topic. A vote was not reached. The caucus seemed about equally divided, and unless there is further action In caucus, the bill as it came from the House, supported by the Democratic senators, will certainly pass. Morton, Drake, Thayer and Cameron spoke against lt. Trum? bull, Edmunds, Ferry and others spoke in fa? vor of Bingham's amendment. In the Senate Sumner objected to the pres? sent consideration of the amendment to the rules for the consideration of treaties acquiring territory, in open session. A petition was presented from the citizens or Mississippi for the abolition of thc franking privilege. The consideration of the Funding bill was resumed. Official documents from General Reynolds, announcing the adoption of the amendments by Texas, were laid before the Senate. The Senate is in session to-night on the Funding bill. In the House, the air-line road was post? poned to Tuesday. The consideration of the bill reducing the army officers was resumed, and, alter various amendments, passed. LATER.-The caucus, was so equally divided that both parties are afraid to call a vote on Bingham's amendment to the Georgia bill. A motion to adjourn to-morrow was defeated. A motion to adjourn to this evening was defeat? ed. A motion to adjourn sine die was carried. A close poll of the Senate shows ten majori? ty for Bingham's amendment, and unless ano? ther caucus is called, the adoption of the bill as it came from the House is regarded certain. The feeling in caucus was quite bitter, and should another caucus be called, lt is likely the friends of Bingham's amendment would re? main away. A negro delegation from Tennessee called on the President with a memorial for protection against outlaws. Six Congressmen accom? panied them. EUROPE. The Irian Land Bill. ? LONDON, March 8. In the House of Commons, to-night, debate on the Irish land bill continued. Mr. Maguire attacked the measure, declaring it fell short of -the exalted expectations of the Irish people. Leases should be protected and made trans? ferable. Politically the Irish tenantry were dangerous; personally they were models of virtue. He advocated the repeal of the law of distraint, and concluded by expressing the opinion that the bill, if properly amended, would prove a benefit to the country. Mr. G. W. Hunt rejoiced at the good temper shown in the discussion, and commented at length on the provisions of the bill, approving of some aud censuring others. He thought the defects might bc remedied In thc com? mittee. The Attorney General made an elaborate reply to these objections. Mr. O'Donoghue thought the task undertaken was really the reorganization ol the social sys? tem of Ireland. There was one hopeful au? gury in tho tact that his voice, hitherto un? heeded, was now heard. Mr. Barry, in a Bpeech full ot humor and force, showed that the tenure system of Eng? land favored the tenant, while that of Ireland favored the landlord. This inequality, needed redress, an opportun';y for which this bill af? forded. Celts and Protestants fled to America, bearing rancorous hatred toward England. From them came the possibility of war with America. He then proceeded to defend the bill in detail. After further debate the House adjourned. A Concerrattve Banquet. LONDON, March 9. The conservative banquet was largely at? tended by eminent men. A number of letters were read. The policy of the present govern? ment was condemned hy all Sir James Pack Ingham, speaking of the army, said: -'To dis? connect the army and reduce its loree by 24,600 men was Injudicious economy. It was easier to dissolve than reembody the army. Happily the country had another force, inde? structible, armed with truth, namely- the Con? servative party, which was enlisted to defend long-established Institutions, not excepting the Irish Church." Cbcap Ocean Telegraphy. LONDON, March 10. Thc Times* money article suggests the ex? periment for a month, of five shillings for ten word messages over the cables. Affairs In Paris. PARIS, March 10. It is reported that smallpox prevails among thc political prisoners. Rochefort is sick. The bullion in the Bank of France has in? creased over thirteen million francs. TBE OLD DOMISIOK. RICHMOND, March 10. The Legislature passed the homestead ex? emption bill, exempting two thousand dollars in property from taxation; also a bill requiring office-holders to take oath to support thc State and Federal Constitutions. The Virginia Horticultural Society was re? organized to-day, being the first meeting since the war. Hugh Blair Grigsby, president, and Thomas H. Wynne, secretary. ITEMS FROM CUBA. HAVANA, March 9. A military court-martial convicted and sen? tenced to death several parties now in New York, implicated in the Villa Nueva riot last year. The insurgents attacked a plantation near Santiago de Cuba, killing six operatives. The Freemasons recently arrested for hold? ing meetings are still in prison. -The musical enthusiasts on the Pacific coast have had a peace Jubilee, at san Francisco, on a grand scale, beginning on the 22d of February, and continuing through that and the two fol? lowing days. The preparations and rehearsals 1 furnished the chief subjects for conversation dur? ing the month preceding the event. Thirty-five i hundred persons took part in the festival, includ- ? lng several military bauds. Nor were the , usual accompaniments of such festivities want? ing. ' Artillery roared, bells chimed, anvlts rung, and "cannon were fired from the stand of the leader by the use of electricity, under the super- 1 vision of the Westeru Union Telegraph Cumpa ny." An organ, and a drum eight feet In d?ame- ' ter, were made for the occasion. The children of i the public schools had a wc. k's holiday. The banks and leading hotness houses were closed on Uie first, aud partially on the following days. , The originator of the affair was the favorite Ca? milla Ur*, who also bore on her feminine shoul? ders the'barden of its organization, and is just 1 now, as may well be believed, more admired than 1 ever. COLUMBIA. THE STATE MEDICAL CONVENTION. Second D a y-Election of Officers-Ad? journment. [SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE NEWS.] COLUMBIA, March 10. The Slate Medical Convention, which con? vened herc yesterday, adjourned to-day to meet in Charleston on the first Wednesday in April, 1870. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Dr. Robertson, president; Dr. Fair, first, Dr. Kinloch, second, and Dr. Wardlaw, third vice-presidents. The other offic< "s, secretary, treasurer, ?ic, were re-elected. Interesting and Instructive papers were submitted by Drs. Darby, Fair, Kinloch, Porcher and Gibbes. FROM THE STATE CAPITAL. Meeting of the State Medical Associa? tion-President's Address-Dr. Darby's Paper on Hair Sutures-The Canal Delays Aga in. COLUMBIA, March 9. Thc Medical Association of South Carolina met to-day in annual session, the president, Dr. A. N. Talley, of Columbia, in the chair. Charleston was represented by Drs. F. Peyre Porcher, R. A. Kinloch, F. L. Parker and J. Somers Buist. The delegates trom Columbia were Drs. Fair, Trezevant and Taylor. There were also pre? sent several resident physicians. The meeting was held In the hall of Nicker son'8 Hotel. The number of physicians pres? ent was about twenty. The most f?bted, be? sides those already mentioned, were Dr. Dar? by, of Columbia, and Dr. Robertsou, of Winns boro'. The venerable Dr. Douglass, of Ches? ter, sent a letter regretting his detention at home by feeble health, stating that he had some papers which he had purposed to submit tQ the meeting. His letter was referred to the Committee on Publication. The regular address ot President Talley was among the earliest points of Importance. It was carelully prepared and strongly profes? sional, dealing earnest and able blows at thc enemies ol' the profession, such as innovations, isms, and new fangled ologies generally' Tl* address was in eminent degree ex-cathedra, in both the borrowed and the literal sense. Dr. John T. Darby, of the University, read a full and able paper on "Hair Sutures." com? paring them with the thread, wire, and other* means of sewing wounds, aptly Illustrated with drawings and photographs, and accom? panied with professional notes. The meeting excites little attention* outside of the profession, and ls not so fully attended by members and delegates from abroad as was hoped and desirable. Adjourned until to-morrow at ll A. M. ? THE CANAL. Senator Spraguc's agent, Colonel Pearce, ' mpowered his sub-agent, Mr. Hoyt, to com- 4 menee work on thc famous Columbia Canal Just before the first of March. Mr. Hoyt took five negroes with hand shovels, and they shov? elled for two days, when the work was again suspended. Now we are told that there must be some delay, in order to get on tho neces? sary tools to complete the Job ot widening the canal. Colonel Pearce remained here several days. A few weeks will show whether this work is to go on honestly, or this second grand Sprague movement ls a sham. This I know officially, that Senator Sprague's agent refused to give any bonds at all, and now stands with? out a dollar's forfeit, except the nominal sum of $200 paid for thc job. CORSAIR. WAR'S WRINKLED FRONT. The President's Father Again on his .Muscle-''You Dirty Rebel Democrat, What Did You do Tlmt Fort"-Effect of tho Senate's Confirmation-Who Shaves Jesse Grant's Clerics'! [From the Cincinnati Commercial.] About three days before Jesse R. Grant left for Washington to see about his confirmation as postmaster of Covington, and various other Important matters concerning the offices in this vicinity, including the Newport postmas tership, Mr. John Marshall, a well-known busi? ness man of Covington, af. present freight agent in this city for several railroads leading out of Cincinnati, addressed a letter to Sena? tor Drake, at the capital, in reference to the Covington postoffice. The letter was very short. It merely stated'that out of the thirty thousand people who compo-e the population of that city, not more than thirty (aud they all office-holders or office-seekers. ) desired Jesse R. Grant ta be postmaster of that place; that, in behalf of the people r' Covington, he pro? tested against the confirmation by the Senate of Father Grant, and hoped Senator Drake would use his influence to have him rejected. Father Grant had not been in Washington an hour until this epistle was placed in" his hands by some one, and he waxed very wroth thereat. He vowed that if ever he got back to Covington he would thrash the writer ol' it. ; Jesse has been at home about a week, keeping quiet until news of his conflrmaiioa was re? ceived. The glad tidings Came on Wednesday, and on Thursday he sallied forth to hunt up John Marshall. Meeting on Madison street his old friend 'Squire A. J. Francis- the 'Squire is : one of the old friends of the family ?jai has never been appointed, to Office-he inquired Where Mr. Marshall lived. The jolly magis? trale directed him to the corner u Eighth and Scott; but in a moment seeing the object of his search on the opposite side of the street, es? corted Mr. Grant over and Introduced him to Mr. Marshall in Iront ot the latter's store. The following highly interesting conversation then look place, 'Squire Francis having modestly retired : Mr. Grant. Are you the Marshall that wrote a letter to Senator Drake about mc ? Mr. Marshall, (smiling.) I wrote a letter some time ago to Senator Drake, protesting against your confirmation as postmaster at Covington. Mr. Grant, (nervous and excited, and clutching his cane.) You dirty rebel Demo? crat, what did you do that for? Mr. Marshall, (coloringsomewhat.) I want you to understand, Mr. Grant, that I am no rebid, or Democrat either I Mr. Grant. They told me in Washington you were a rebel Democrat. Mr. Marshall. Nobody told you that unless , John S. Nixon did. I never voted for but ouo Democrat in my life, aud that was Judge Kin icead. Mr. Grant. And you think I am not fit for postmaster of Covington ? Mr. Marshall. I said nothing in my letter about your fitness or unfitness for the position; but you well know, Mr. ('rant, that a very small number ol" people in this city desire to i Bee you enjoying that lucrative office. J Mr. Grant. I suppose you would like to have I the place yourself? i Mr. Marshall. I should not object to it. Mr. Grant. I have saved to the govern- i mont, since I have been postmaster at Coving- i ton, $5000. I Mr. Marshall. Yes, I suppose you have, but. I it has been done by your hiring clerks at : starvation wages, when the department at I Washington allows ali postmasters a liberal . ?mount for clerk hire. With all your boasts j ibout economy and saving money for the i jovernment, I notice you never decline an in- i :rease of your own salary. i Mr. Grant. You are a pretty Republican to 1 t>e writing such letters as that about me. Mr. Marshall. I claim the privilege ol | tvrititig what I jilease, so that it is the truth, i md I will do it, even though it concerns the I President's father, or the President himself. 1 Mr. Grant, I do not wish to converse any fur- i ?.her on this subject. Good day. ? The parties then separated. Father Grant I probably thought that inasmuch as he bad been ; unanimously confirmed, he could afford to let I Marshall go without the promised thrashing. 1 THE NEW REGISTE. Thc Lights of the Legislature. NUMBER T. ADAMSON, B0BEM0N, AND OTHERS. W. Adamson is a black man, and represents Kershaw County, if sitting in his seat and vot ing as he is told can be called representing. Benjamin A. Boscmon is of mixed blood, quite intelligent, is the physician of the Charleston County Jail, and regent of the Lunatic Asylum. Ho represents Charleston County, does not speak olten, and has iittle influence. B. F. Berry is a white man, by profession a clergy? man, and represents Barnwell County. J. A. Bowley is a black man, and represents George? town County. He aspires to be a leader of the House, and imitates DcLarge, Elliott and Whipper, but received for his pains hisses and laughter, instead of the applause he desired and thought he deserved. He is school com? missioner of Georgetown County. Wm. J. Brodie is a black man, and represents Charles? ton County, as also doe6 Stephen Brown, who is a black man. Neither of them are of much service to their constituents. Barney Burton, John and Joseph Boston are black men, and represent respectively the counties of Chester, Darlington and Newberry, and may be classed among the silent members. John A. Boswell Is a white man, and a representative from Kershaw County. He ls postmaster at Camden, and, as a correspondent informs us, has a colored wo? man for his wife. W. A. Bishop is a white man, representing Spartanburg County. Like Boswell, he was not "called" to be a legisla? tor. Lawrence Cain is a mulatto and E. J. Cain a black man, representing respectively the counties of Edgefleid and Orangeburg, In which they hold the offices of school commis? sioner. Theyv>and Wilson Cooke, of mixed blood, and represenflng Greenville County, and Wm. S. Collins.-A white man, representing Marion County, fill chairs In the House, and are of -no further legislative Bervice. The Mar? ion Star accuses Collins of having sold his vote on thc Phosphate bill, for one hundred and tweflty-flve dollars. JOSEPH CREWS. The first thing to be said of Joseph IR that he was chairman of the committee appointed to investigate the "disordered state of affairs" in tho Third Congressional District. The re? port of tho committee shows thc manner of man he is. As a legislator he is not worth much to his constituents of Laurens County, which >.e represented, but was very useful to the mejabers ot the Legislature, to whom he loaned money at a high rate of percentage. Joseph is a native of North Carolina, and ls a "man of peace." Joseph ls very popular with the State officials, and it ls generally believed docs all of the secret work that is done by these officials. DE LARGE. Robert C. DeLargo is a little fellow, of mix? ed blood, a representative of Charleston Coun? ty, and the leader of thc House, having more influence in it, perhaps, (han all three of thc other influential representatives, viz: Elliott, Moses and Whipper. DeLargc is not educat? ed, but is Shrewd, a ready adapter, tricky and full of energy. He is as restless as a June-bug, and lt is as difficult to keep an eye upon him us lt was for the Dutchman to put his finger on the flea. He seldom sits in ids seat, but moves all abont t he House, chatting to this or that repre? sentative; making sofio voce remarks, and a least once in every ten minutes addressing the House. It ls difficult to assign a reason for his influence, but lt is almost unbounded. No measure that he puts forward stops on its way to an act in the House; the "wheels of legisla? tion" in the House seemed to be moved, for htm, by clock-work, of which he alone has the key. He has a thorough contempt for alargo number of his associates, and abuses them roundly whenever he feels In the humor. He ls now Land Commissioner. .V DENNIS, DRIFFLK, DUVALL, DEMARS. John B. Dennis, who rejoices in the prefix ol "General," was an officer in the United States armj during the late war, and ls now a repre? sentative from Charleston County. He is em? ployed in one ot the Mate departments. He was frequently absent last session, spoke Utile, and has no influence. Wm. Driffle, a large, bright mulatto, is representative from Collo ton County. Because of his good humor and frequent laughing he is called "laughing Drif fie," and "motion Driffle," because lie makes so many motions. Lewis W. Duvall is a white man, a representative and sheriff of Fairfield County, with no influence whatever. Francis Demars is one of thc most respectable Radical representatives in thc House, and appeared to be thoroughly disgusted with the company he was in. He represents Ornnsrebtirg County, aud is postmaster al the county seat. ELLIOTT, or "Colonel" R. B. Elliott as he ls designated, I i because of his position as assistant adjutant,- ' general of the State, is a black mau and rep- j resents Barnwell County. He makes the best | sounding speeches lil tho House, but there is < little In what he says. His Influence is next j to that of DeLarge's. The only way to com- . pare the two is to liken them to a fox and a i bull. Like thc bull, Elliott goes roaring along 1 with head down, seeing neither to the right , nor lo thc left. If an obstacle present Itself i and he cannot break it down with a rush, he l gives up. DeLarge will go tripping up to tile j same obstacle and if ho cannot go over lt, un- ( der it or through it, will run up and down un- i til he can get around it. Elliott has gained ' considerable notoriety by horsewhipping a , low white man In Columbia last summer. He ] is a native of thc North, and by profession a 1 lawyer. THE WOMAN MOVEMENT. The Female Grand Jury in Wyoming -Their Right to Serve Sustained- J ' Address of Judge Dowe. I A dispatch from Laramie City, Wyoming Territory, dated on Monday last, 6ays : The Judiciary of Wyoming sustain the right 1 ai women to serve as grand Jurors. All the 1 ladies drawn as grund Jurors were present in \ ihe courtroom at ll o'clock this morniug. A motion was made to quash the panel, but it 1 was not sustained. At five minutes to 12 i ?'Clock thc first panel of lady grand Jurors In i ;he world were sworn. None of them asked i to be excused. An able address was delivered t by Chief Justice Dowe. He said: I " Ladies and Gentlemen of the Grand Jury-lt \ is au innovation and a great novelty to see, as i wc do to-day, ladies summoned to serve as \ jurors. The extension of political rights and I franchise to women is a subject thal is agit?t- ( ing the whole country. I have never taken an ( active part in these discussions, but I have { loug seen that woman was a victim to the vices, crimes and immoralities of man with no < power to protect and defend herself from these 1 evils. I have long felt that such powers of pro- i lection should be conferred upon woman, and it t has fallen to our lot here to act os the pioneer t in the movement, aud to test the question. The I sjes of the whole world are to-day fixed upon i this jury of Albany County. There is not the t slightest impropriety in any lady occupying this i position, and I wish to assure you that Hie ful- . icst protection ol' the court shall bc accorded < to you. It would bc a most shameful scan? dal thal In our temple ofjustlce and in our courts of law anything should be permitted which the most sensitive lady might not hear with pro? priety and witness. And here let me add that it will bc a sorry day for any man who shall so far forget the courtesy due and paid by every American gentleman to every American lady as to even oy a word or act endeavor to deter you from the exercise ol those rights ol which the law has invested you. I conclude with the remark that this is a question for you to decide for yourselves. No man has any right to interfere. It seems to be eminently proper for women to sit upon grand Juries, which will give them the best possible opportunities to aid In suppressing the dens of Infamy which ciirse thc country. I shall be glad of you assistance i a the accomplishment of this object. I do noi make these remarks irom dis? trust of any of the gentlemen. On the con? trary, I am exceedingly pleased and gratified with the indication of intelligence, love of law and good order, and the gentlemanly deport portment which I see manifested here. I will now listen to any reasons which any Jurors may make for being excused. IS NAPOLEON DEAD ? Extraordinary Rumor In Parla-Thc Real Ruler of Prance-Who ls the Alan that Instituted thc Recent Reforms ?_ A Bogus Emperor at the Tuileries. Thc following Is the full letter in thc New York World in regard to the rumor of the death of the French Emperor, which seems to have caused so great a sensation in tho New York gold market. Thc substance ot the statement has already appeared iu TUE NEWS, but the details will nevertheless be road with interest : PARIS, February 21. There is a rumor circulating here BO strange as to seem almost Incredible-one which lt would be Impossible to keep from the newspa? pers in New York for one hour, but which, not? withstanding its importance, has hot yet been published here. It is circumstantial and pre? cise in Its details-so precise that it affords suf? ficient grounds for a critical examination, and, from this fact, distinct from the probabilities which are as much In Ito favor as against it, it has been widely received. It is no leBS than that the Emperor Napoleon bas been dead for several montos, that thc person who now rep? resents him has been substituted in his place to prevent disturbance, and that thc real ruler of France is the Empress, acting as regent for her son, Napoleon IV. This, it Is said, ac? counts for the complete reversal of policy which has marked thc government of France during the past few months. The date of the Emperor's death, the object of the conceal? ment, how lt was concealed, and the date at which it will be officially disclosed, agathe most interesting points connected with this re? markable event. In reference to them, I lay before you thc information I have been put in possession of. In the early part of last year, the late Em? peror had many warnings that bis tenure of life was more than ordinarily uncertain. He, therefore, determined to put his imperial house in order, and, to borrow the language of the London Times, to consider the remain? der of his life and reign ila8 a prelude to the reign of his son." Hence thc "rclorras," more so in name than in reality, which, with thc promised renunciation of personal govern? ment, were announced in the early part of July, anrl soon after thc Senatus Consultum was agreed to. These came none too early, for the "prelude" to his son's reign was des? tined to be short Indeed. In August, the Em? peror was confined at Intervals to his bed by Ids fatal illness. The officiai announcement of his trouble, while capable or modifica? tion, could not be delayed much longer than August, for at that date he was expect? ed to go to Chalons to take part In the military celobration of tho Fete Napo? leon. Accordingly, on August ll, he was described ns sulfuring from a severe attack, of rheumatism. Rheumatic symptoms he cer? tainly had, but to your medical readers ac quaiuted with the nature of the peculiar chronic affliction under which thc Emperor labored-one of tho sequels of which was the cause of his death-lt ls unnecessary to say that rheumatic troubles arc not unusual in cer? tain stages of the malady. It ls needless to add that the Emperordld notgo to Chalons; a convenient reason for this was found in his illness and death of Marshal Nell. Of course the Emperor was "too afllictcd" to visit his soldiers, but he sent his son, the Prince Impe? rial, to represent him. The strong will of the Emperor, and his anxiety to arrange matters for his son, enabled him to struggle tempo? rarily with his Illness, and at intervals he par? tially improved so far as to attend to business. In the early part of September, the anxiety felt throughout Europe, and especially France, was intense. That the Emperor was dying was generally felt, but no reliable particulars of his state could bc procured. The Journal Officiel published bulletins announcing that his Majesty "slept well,'' that he "spent an easy night," that "the temperature of yes? terday was unfavorable to his Majesty, but, nevertheless, he was improving." Then, on September 7, thc Journal Officiel wrote: "The Emperor attends to his affairs daily. He has suffered some from rheumatism, but at no time lias his condition been such as to cause tlic least anxiety." All this, and much more, was said, but no one believes the Journal Offi? ciel. The Moniteur, on the other hand, com? plained on the same date that it was impossi? ble to obtain information about the Emperor's state, and La Presse said that no one except Hie Empress, the Prince Imperial, hts medical attendants and ministers were admitted to the Emperor's room. As a comment on all this, it may be added that the services of Dr. Ricord" were called in, and that, three or lour days previously, the Empress and Hie Prince were recalled from Ajacclo Iheir return, it was asserted, being tiie Indisposition of the Empress. On the arrival of the party in Paris they bund the Emperor still Uyiim, bul in a precarious condition.. In? deed, that the Emperor could not live many lavs was widely believed in Paris on Septem? ber (i. The excitement on the 7th was Intense. Lin the 8th, as is now believed, the Emperor lied under the knife of Ricord. It could hard? ly have been earlier than that date, though there ire some who have given attention to the maller, who believe that it may have occurred some days earlier or later. Judged by the ul tier events which followed, it Beemstorae that the 8th was the date on which he died. Df course, the reason why it was an object of ?tate to couccal the death of the Emperor, is apparent. Tlie Prince Imperial had not yet reached his majority; affairs were very much disturbed in France. Tliero was a popular Braving for reforms which even those outlined n Prince Napoleon's famous speech could not satisfy; the "Reds" were prepared to re? volt as soon as the firm hand of the third Napoleon was removed. It was all-important .hat the regency of thc Empress stiuuld be quietly established, and that it should win .rood opinions before lite news of Napoleon's ieath should be made known. Hence tho plan jf keeping it secret, which it is believed jriginated in the late Emperor's own mind. \B any disturbance of order in France would ead to serious European complications, the Emperor received before his death a promise rom Hnglanil, and it ls believed from Russia, .hat they would aid in maintaining the Prince m his throne; this, lt will be remembered, ?vas officially denied at the time, but thc d?? liai was not considered trustworthy. The Emperor, it is said, felt from this great satis actiou and a hope ol' thc final success of his lian. But, even more than on thc assistance of hese powers, that success was to depend on ts secrecy. There were two classes by whom t might bc discovered-the ministers, ser? rante, confidential friends of the Emperor, and he general public. It was plainly impossible ,o conceal it from the ministers, Ac. So they vere Liken into confidence, and promised jreat honors under the government as the re? gard of their secrecy. Thus lc the fidelity of hese men to tho cause of the Imperial family, >r in their self interest, was their scheme se :ured. The task of concealing it from the jcneral public was more difficult. To do this, there was a dummy needed, who. >n the few occasions on which the supposed Smperor would appear in public was to repre lent him. By preventing those not n the leeret coming loo near this person, and by rusting-as it was perfectly safe to do-to the tbsence of all suspicion and to the allowance -vhich would be made for the alterations pro luced by sickness, a person bearing a mode .ate likeness to the Emperor could be made to ippear strikingly like him by the aid of the roftiamier. Since I heard of the Emperor's death, I have endeavored to obtain a near vi of the soi disant Emperor as he walked on < I of the terraces of the palace in company w the Prince Imperial. I was not alic ed to approach" too close, but, as se through an opera-glass, he bears a etrikl likeness to the late Emperor. He was of I same inelegant carriage, almost as tall, we lng high-heeled boots, somewhat bent, a short in thc legs, having thc same cold, lead face, eyes of a sickly lustreless appearan and the moustache waxed a VEmpereur. Tl art was employed to make the likeness str lng I have no doubt, but there was a stro personal family resemblance between thc wa er on the terrace and the Emperor as I reme ber him. It ls said that the "dummy'' is of 1 Emperor's family, though not of the line succession. It is well known that the Due Morn y and others similarly connected with h bore a striking resemblance to Napoleon III It was inferred that within half a year, least, affairs could be so arranged as to rene at the worst the acknowledgement safe tl the Emperor had died and that the Empn had been ruling France in the meantime as i gent. It was meant, however, that if the fra should not be discovered the Emperor was die "naturally" in March or April. To preps the public for his death then, lt was announce on the authority of an eminent physician, tl he might die In three months, that he wot probably die In six. and certainly within twelvemonth. But, before either of these dat? there were two public solemnities at whl the Emperor should appear when the fraud w likely to be discovered. One was at the ope ing of the Chamber?", and the other at t New Year's reception ot the Diplomatic O lege, &c. Thc former was delayed one mon to make malters secure and then the openli was risked. The case ol the "Emperor friends was successful. His worn appearanc &c, was remarked, but there was HUI? si picion, if any, or the truth. The diplomai ceremony was the first occasion which led the discovery. Some of the ambassadors we lu the Beeret, others were not; through 01 ot the diplomatic order the whole dlscove was made. The efforts to divert suspicion were remar ably Ingenious. All of them, o? course, I < not pretend to know; some ot them I do. Tv days after the death of the real Emperor, tl modern French Smerdis rode oui in a carrlai with the Empress, arriving at P?ris from ? Cloud at 5 P. M. He drove to the boule van by the Ruc de la Paix, and returned to E Cloud by thc Champs Elysees. This drive wi duly announced as an evidence oft his restor tion to health. Announcements > of cabin councils, at which the defunct monarch wi supposed to have presided, were made. Ii Iterview8 were said to have been granted I Prince Gortschakoff, and, if I remember righ ly, to the Earl ot Clarendon, as well as to ot; ers, who really were friendly to the plans no disclosed. Ca the other hand, audlenc< were refused day after day to Gener Prim and others, to whom a knowledge i the deceit would have been all-importan Efforts were made to mould public oplnlo; both in France and England, in the Interes of the Empress and a regency. Thus the Loi don Times, of September ll or 12, wrote BU stantlally that lt was ot little importance wi was Emperor or regent If personal goven ment were abandoned, that thc real questic was who was minister. Finally, to satisfy tl public that the Emperor's health was restorci the Empress went to thc East, but she did m bring thc Prlnec, then Emperor, with her, ar she returned soon, almost at the timo appoin ed for thc opening of the Chambers. She h? stood firmly by her son ever since, and thci are many reasons lor believing that it was h< policy which called Olivier to the head of tl young Emperor's government. Did time pe mit, leonid trace for your readers many ind cations of her influence; but as thc events thc past tour months in France are almost ; well known lo New Yorkers as to Parisians, need not delay now to point them out. It seems strange that this matter has n been ventilated here; but, as every one wi knows Paris can tell, it Is in thc salon and n in the uncongenial or dangerous columns the newspaper that such malters are dlscusse besides, many of those who have heard thc r mor uro bait' Incredulous rh su. the trick Smerdis should be played In the nineteen century and in Paris But lt is this lncredulli on which the late Emperor relied most for tl success of his scheme. The story is leukir out now through loreign crevices, but uni Ods present occasion, I believe nothing mo: definite has been published about lt than a di totted rumor attributed to a Swiss newspape that some person bas been going round repr senting that he is Napoleon. You see that this, there is Just a grain of truth, but lt lu eon strangely mingled with a bushel of erro I should have telegraphed this matter you, but telegraphing such a history lro Paris is, at present, more than any journal ls having a reasonable fear ot Ste Pelagic befoi his mind, would attempt, and If he attemptt he could not succeed In sending lt. FOREIGN GOSSIP. -The French Journal La Monde says thi several ecclesiastics from North America ai among those ordered to leave Rome, tor "ha ing taken part in recriminations and intrigue unworthy of thc character with which th? art? invested, and of the respect that the; beyond all others, owe to the Holy See." -Baron Nathaniel Rothschild, a distil gui8lied member of the famous family < wealthy bankers, died in Paris on Februar 19th. He was the third son of Baron Nadia Meyer Rothschild, and was boru in 1812, and i 1842 married his cousin. Charlotte, daughte of Baron James Rothschild. Baron .James who died not long ago, was famous for hi immense wealth, but Baron Nathaniel, it 1 stated, was a man of greater mark and rare powers. For many years he was blind, am recently became totally paralyzed. Althougl incapable of using his limbs, his intellect wa still unclouded and his brain active, so that hi advice continued to be received with high re gard anti confidence by the firm. -This ls the latest story from Paris: Ai attache of the Austrian Legation was so un fortunate as to break a fan. Its owner, a mos charming and exceedingly pretty woman, the Countess J., was furious, and spoke her mint quite freely about it. The culprit manllestct becoming contrition, and offered to have tl? lan mended, or supply ?ls place. Increased anger on thc part of the lady, who demanded apiece of paper in which to wrap the frag tnents. Thc youlhlul diplomatist opened hil portmonnalc, aud, without the least impert? neut intention in the world, took out a thon sand-franc note, saying, as he tore il in half "I have only this, madame." This capped the climax, and Hie excitement of thc lady reach? ed so high a point that a fashionable sculptor who was present requested permission to ta kt lier as a model for the statue of an angrj Juno, which he had just commenced. -The Gaulois gives an accou nt of a horrible and mysterious affair in Spain. The story is that on February 17, a band of people (numbet not stated,) broke iuto a house at Alcira, a little village near Valencia, at three in thc morning. They got in by making a hole in the roof. Thc name of thc owner of this house was M. Baluda. He was in bed with his wife. The Invaders pulled them out of bed, and put gags in their mouths. Then they went to the rooms where six children were sleeping. These chil? dren they bouud with cords, and then, in sight of their parents, they tore out their eyes and tongues. Afterward they cut off the feet ot M. Baluda and his eldest son, named Vincent, but purposely left the tendon near thc heel unsev ered, and then they hung them up, head down? ward. After these achievements they ran? sacked the larder, made a good breakfast, Jeering at their victims all the time, and left the house at daybreak. Two of the villains have been arrested. One, named Ferdinand Balluda, is a near relative of the family. The number of the gang ls not stated. They did not rob thc house, and therefore it is sup? posed that they were impelled to execute a vendetta ? la Corsa. Nothing more is yet known of this astonishing crime. OFFICIAL.
