Since midnight troops have occupied the Place Chateau Dena, where the casserne of Prince Eugene is situated. ' Many groups of cubras spectators throng the Boulevards, but the heavy rain prevents a dangerous increase. Belleville and the Faubourg du Temple are held by the military. No one is allowed to pass the guards in .those quarters. * PARIS, May 12-2 o'clock. The city is tranquil and the soldiers occupy tho scenes of the recent disorders. Rochefort's paper ms again prosecuted to-day for assert? ing that the recent riots were instigated by the police. The hallion in the Bank of France has tie creased twenty-four and half million francs. Crowds collected at various points last night were dispersed without bloodshed by the troops and police.

Both locomotives were smashed and the trains badly wrecked. The collision occurred through the misapprehen? sion of orders to conductors. MEMORIAL I>AT IN COLUMBIA. [FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA, May ll. The decoration ceremonies yesterday were of the simplest, and therefore the most ap? propriate character. The church-yard graves were decorated in the morning by committees for each church-yard. 'At half past 5 in the afternoon the general decoration at the" ceme? tery took place. The crowd was quite as large as ever before. An informal procession was formed at the porter's lodge, which filed to the place of general burial of the soldiers. There, all standing uncovered, a prayer was offered up by the Rev. Mr. Glrardeau, of Charleston; the wreaths and other floral ornaments were, silently put upon the graves, and the assem? blage quietly and quickly withdrew. Nothing could have been more appropriate. It w?S nil quiet, silent, dignified and earnest; and th- solemn hush of those, busy 'hundreds was .' ill of pathos and beauty. A few mottoes would have explained to a stranger, had he failed to catch it from the manner ot the gathering, what meant this scene of mingled silence, pathos, beauty and sorrow. There was no pageantry; but there was something far more appropriate-earnest leel lng. H?ge, like Bismarck, is said to have jaundice. CORSAIR. AMATEUR THEATRICALS.-The Hibernian Hall was largely attended, on Wednesday night, by an audience invited to witness the performance of ?Evadn?, or the Statue," by the Chlcor? Drama? tic flub cf this city. Although the actors were all amateurs, the play had been carefully Studien and each part was performed with a thorough appreciation of the character. Evadne, Olivia and Ludivlco were, perhaps, the most faultlessly rendered, and the former elicited frequent and deserved applause. The Chlcoras have already given several private dramatic entertainments, but that of Wednesday night evinced a more care? ful preparation of the partB which, with the aid of the scenic effects of 'the stage, combined to make the performance not only creditable to the club, but a pleasure to the audience. ? ?i -? ?? ? -Rev. Charles B. Smythe's congregation, Elev? enth street Presbyterian Church, New York, voted Monday night, forty to twenty-three, against his removing their pastor, for the crime of drinking a tumbler or gin .and nUlk In a restaurant on a Sunday.

The Discussion of the Proposition to Uni tc with the .Northern Baptist*- Its Rejection. Our telegraphic advices have already In? formed our readers of the rejection, .by thc Southern Baptist Convention, of thc proposi? tion to co-operate with the Northern Baptists. The proposition caine in the form ot the fol? lowing preamble and resolutions, introduced on Saturday by the Rev. J. B. Jeter, of Vir? ginia : Whereas, We believe that a restoration of | fraternal affection and co-operation of the Bap? tists North and South, Lf iL can bc secured without any sacrifice ol' principle or self-re? spect, will bc promotive of the best interests of the denomination and the glory of Christ; and whereas, our Northern brethren have on several occasions, and in various ways, indi? cated a desire lor the renewal ol' fraternal in? tercourse with us; and whereas, we believe that the integrity of our Southern Baptist in? stitutions is essential to the development of I our resources and the culture of our proper | field oi labor; therelore, Resolved, That the whole subject be referred to a committee to report whether any, and if any, what action should be taken in the prem? ises by this body. Mr. Jeter, in support of the preamble and resolutions,*^ : There is no intention of any one-certainly it was not his intention, and he did not know that it was the Intention of any? body-to give up Sou'hern Baptist institut ion?. He did not know that anybody In the North desired this. All that was desired by bim was harmony of Christian feeling and mutual en encouragement in the great common work, the promotion of Christ's Kingdom. He wanted to co-operate with all who were seek? ing to advance the Redeemer's Kingdom. After the war, some men who had been broken down, came to him and asked his advice rela? tive to taking service under Northern boards, and he advised them to do so, since the pro? motion of the cause of Christ was not section? al. They did so, and bad been since laboring, efficiently for Christ, being sustained by Northern brethren. So some orethren, whose churches had been burned down during the war, went North to get help to rebuild the waste places, and were liberally aided, and came back rejoicing. In these and other ways co-operation was going on. Northern brethren had sent books South, and ID many other ways shown their readiness to co-operate and har? monize, and he wished to see them meet in the same spirit. He wanted co-operation as far as the ?lory of the Redeemer's Kingdom requires. The NorLh desired co-operation, and we must lorget some things-must Ignore tbe past or wc can't ever have harmony. Old wounds can't be healed by constantly Irritat? ing and tearing them open. There was for? merly a Mason and Dixon's line; perhaps it was obliterated by the war; but it never ran through the Kingdom of Christ. Mr. Jeter concluded by detail-.ng the warm, fraternal, most hospitable magner in which the South? ern delegates to the Educational Convention bad been received In Brooklyn, Their feel I ng.* were not in a single instance wounded by anything said by a Northern man. The sepa? ration from our Northern brethren was made by ns. We took that step because we consid? ered it justifiable. That renders the present step proper to evince our Christian sympathy and willingness to co-operate. Rev. Mr. Jones, of Virginia, 6a!d the subject was an Important one, and that the time had not come for talking about co-operatiou, as to discuss it involves questions of bitterness. If brethren had-to go North to get help to build churches destroyed In a war brought on by the teachings ol these Northern soldiers burned by Northern soldiers, sent here by Northern" brethren, he thought it best, yet awhile, for each to go on doing his own work, and not discuss resolutions of co-operation at this time. Rev. Mr. Crane, of Texas, said he had not anticipated seeing the question brought up in its present form, out he was willing to meet lt. He had been one who with fourteen others, in 1861, had taken such a stand for the South as had given him a place in "McPherson's History of the Great Rebellion," but he was so far re? constructed as to work with any one for the truth. He would co-operate with any Christian where there was no sacrifice of principle, of our tenets or of our responsibilities. He wanted co-operation with all who were working ior Christ, but we are not prepared for organic co-operation. He wanted union, not only with all the Baptists of of the United States, but ol'the world. He was himself a Baptist, warp, woof and filling. He was Southern in his sympathies and leehngs but he was more Christian than fiouthern. Co-operation with the North was no surrender ol'our bourds, nor of any of our works, nor of | a single office or position or mau. We must forget thc past. He had had as great sorrow? as almost any other man-the memories of which harrowed his soul, and he had uo bitter regrets for what he had done on behalf of the South. He didn't exptel to be reconstructed that lar. but he had a warm wish to harmonize with all Christian brethren. The Rev. Mr. Winston, of Tennessee, urged harmony and co-operation with the Northern brethren of the church in a speech filled with patriotism. He said every Christian must have fraternal feeling for Christians the world over. He wanted ai i Baptists to harmonize. The Baptists of the North held the same great principles as t hose of the South. They believ? ed in faith in the Lord Jesus Christ-in repen? tance before God-in the immersion of be? lievers in water by recognized administrators. There should be affiliation and co-operation, each working in its own field. He relerred to thc evidence given by Northern . brethren since the war of their desire to harmonize their readiness to aid Southern brethren their desire to be at p?ace. He wanted the matter left thus. If they attempted to do more than let this brotherhood grow by mu? tual kindness, sympathy and good offices, there would be no end to the agitation. To attempt to do more in the convention would only induce endless discussion. The true plan to bring harmony and co-operation was to treat the matter as a surgeon would a broken limb-bandage it and let it rest. The Rev. W. D. Thomas, ol' South Carolina, was the next speaker. His remarke'atlracted great attention, and were listened to through? out with marked attention. He said that the Southern Baptist Convention had tendered fraternization, and there had been no official response, the reason being stated to be that the constitution of the American Baptist As? sociation prevented the suggested co-opera? tion. He regretted that there had ever been a word said about co-operation with our North? ern brethren. How can two walk- together except they be agreed ? We may agree upon thc Gospel or Christ; but when you come to preach it, there may be a wide divergence as to how it is to be done. Tho time may sometime come when we can not only be one with our Northern brethren In loving Christ, but to agree os to how we will work In advancing the kingdom of Christ. There was no need Tor urging organic co-ope? ration. There was danger In that. There was in the country too much tendency to consoli? dation in policies and in other religious de? nominations. There would be individual co? operation, but organic co-operation, which was all the sort that the convention could by its action promote, was dangerous to the cause of Christ, and not likely to promote harmony. He concluded by Bhowlng that there could be fraternization and Christian fellowship, but that the South could not give up her organiza? tion, aud that the resolutions proposed were the first steps In that direction. The Rev. Mr. Warren, of Georgia, regarded the subject as of great Importance-lt had To be met, and he was glad it was Introduced. Ho wanted thc matter referred to a committee ofthebest men to consider and report upon it. He was lu favor of sustaining our South? ern institutions, and opposed to voting that we could co-operate with Northern brethren. He thought that there was no occasion for such a vote. He cited the case of the Ameri? can Baptist Society employing Brother Hay? wood, a Georgian, boro and raised in the South, and with religious, political and social Southern sympathies, txrbe their agent In dis? tributing among the poor of the South SCOOO. Was this co-operation to be rejected ? When he himself had proposed an agency to educate colored ministers the representative of the Northern Board wrote to tell him to draw $2G0, and he did so. Was he to refuse such co-ope I ration tendered without a question ? He cited j other coses, and urged that while Southern organizations should be kept.up, there should be kindly co-operation with Northern brethren. The Kev. J. Culpepper, of South Carolina, next followed, who said the breach between Northern and southern Baptist was widened by each of them believing what bad men said to them abotlt the other, He admitted that his mind had thus been prejudiced against Northern people. He knew that the Hes told about Southern people by what somebody had called "them edged devils," and believed by Northern people, had done great harm. It had alienated the hearts bf the Christians of the North and South. The Northern people believed that lhere were Ku-Khix in South Carolina, killing loyal people, and that South? ern Christians favored their bad acts, and this made these Northern Christians believe that the Southern Christiane were wicked. Then, again, the men who thus caused bad feeling in the North by misrepresenting Southern peo? ple, had so misused public money and increas public expenses, that the bardens of taxation were enormous. His own laxes for State pur? poses were nine limes what they used to be, and as Southern people believed that this was sus? tained by Northern people who sustained the bad fellows who dla the mischief, lt alienated their hearts from those of the Northern breth? ren. The breach was constantly growing wider. The feeling of Southern Christians toward their Northern brethren was much worse than it was two years ago. They felt that thoy were treated most unjustly and un? generously. They reported Ku-Klux In South Carolina were all men in buckram-len. pix, two men In each buckram. This all Southern people knew, and they felt sore nt being con? stantly misrepresented and abused. He had stood it and meant to stand it as long as he could. That was the way many Southern Bap? tist brethren felt. He waft willing to frater? nize with Northern bretareD. but he would have them regard bim as also a Christian brother. It was ffle same distance from Bos? ton to Charleston as frouu.Churleston to Bos? ton. At thc close ot Mr. Cnlpepper's remarks, the Rev. Dr. v Broaddus, of Virginia, with a view to harmonize thc convention, submitted the following preamble and resolutions as a sub? stitute for those offered by Mr. Jetert Wliereas, Many of our brethren, both North and South, are desirous of attempting by some' suitable means to secure organic connection between the several boards of the Baptist de? nomination, North and South. Resolved, That in the judgment of this con? vention, any attempt in this direction would, Instead of tending to draw together the Bap? tists of the North and South, tend rather to keep up strife among the brethren. Resolved, That while we desire to cultivate fraternal feelings toward our Northern breth? ren, we recommend to the several organiza? tions now existing In both sections to promote their own work by such means as the Provi? dence of God may put into their hands, bid? ding each other God-speed ?in the work .of spreading the Gospel throughout the whole earth. The Rev. Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, offered the folklwing amendment to the substitute of Dr. Broaddus : Resolved. That the question of co-operation with our Northern brethren be referred to a committee of one from each State embraced under the operations of this body, with In? structions to report the character and method of co-operation if any, that is desirable and practicable. The Rev. Drr Poindexter, of Virginia, arose, and, in a forcible speech, urged the adoption of the original resolutions. At this stage ot the discussion, a motion was made to lay the above subject on the table. The motion was adopted by 112 yeas to 83 nays. The Rev. J. L. Reynolds, of South Carolina, made the report of the committee, to whom was referred the subject of the Sunday-Pchool Board co-operating with Northern agencies for the same work. The report urged the action of co-operation of all Christian* brethren with? in the field of the Southern Convention, but strongly deprecated a consolidation with any Northern organization, and urged increased energy by the* board, to whom it suggested pracUcal efforts and reports. T?<; report was adopted. The Rev. Dr. Jeter moved to take the pre? amble and resolutions offered by him from the table, which was ordered by a vote of 14C yeas to 30 nays. Dr. Broaddus took the floor again, and made a strong and urgent appeal in favor of their adoption by the convention. He said he wanted harmony. He had been called an ex-rebel, and he did not take lt in nu Invidious sense. Filmore was ex-President, but that did not mean that Filmore regretted having been President, or thought he had done wrong in being, or might nor, under some circum? stances, wish tb be so again. He was willing to harmonize with Northern brethren, and let the past, with Its bitter memories, go. He was willing to love all Christians, but this did not mean that lie would give up our own or? ganizations. The Rev. Dr. Boyce, of South Carolina, sug? gested that to refuse the reference of the mat? ter to a committee, when such committee was asked by some ot the most venerable and worthy brethren, was such gross, though per? haps-unintentional, discourtesy, as was alto? gether unusual itv both religious and political assemblies. Thc previous question was called and carried. The main question theu came up, and the re? ference to a committee ol' Dr. Jeter's resolu? tion was carried. A division was called, and resulted in 160 votes for the reference, to about 20 against it. On motion, the committee was ordered to consist of one i rom each State represented in the convention, and Messrs. Jeter, Jones, Reynolds, Williams, Hardwick, Irwin, Webb, Blackwood, McIntosh, Mills. Mayfield, Sher? wood, Lewis and Law were appointed on the committee. The session of Monday was almost exclu? sively occupied by the discussion of the sub? ject of foreign missions. A resolution was passed fixing upon St. Louis as the place for the next session of the convention. p9* AWAY WITH UNCOMFORTABLE TRUSSES.-Comfort and Core for the Ruptured.

P&-FAST LIVING, AND ITS CONSE c?HENCES.-When "fast life? has undermined the strength, destroyed the appetite, Impaired the digestion, und stolen the hue of health from thc cheek-when the hand trembles, the spirits droop, and the whole physical and mental organi? zation languishes, ls it possible to repair the cvU and restore the dilapidated system to full health and vigor? We answer that it ls. Hundreds of | cases have been cited, thousands might be cited, In which this regeneration has been accomplished by the regular and persistent use of PLANTA? TION BITTERS.

Tone and regulate the overtaxed vital ma? chinery with HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. In that wholesome elixir, the alcoholic element, which ls the purest derivable from any source, ls tempered by the choicest tonic, aperient, anti bilious and anti febrile vegetable extracts and Juices. To strengthen, recruit, solace and purify the system is the mission or the great vegetable specific. When the stomach is In a healthy state, the bile flows regularly, the bowels perform their office properly, and the telegraphic Ubres or the nervous system are in perfect working order, an enormous amonnt ol- labor can be borne without risk or inconvenience, and the direct effect of the Bitters ls to promote this vigorous condition of the functions upon which the nourishment of the body, and Its power or endurance mainly depend. The great tonic and alterative ls, therefore, em? phatically recommended for its remarkable strengthening properties, to all upon whom the responsibilities of lire press heavily, and who reel like fainting under the burden. A lively appe? tite, a splendid digestion, clastic spirits, and a marvellous ability to withstand fatigue, are among the blessings justly ascribed to the reno? vating operation or this palatable and powerful cordial, and as a ?pring and summer alterative, there is nothing In the materia medica that can be compared with lt._mayll-ODAC pw THE PIONEER STEAM FIRE COMPANY-TO THE CITIZENS OF CHARLES?
