At the request of Thiers the Assembly Immediately went into committee upon the question, decision up;n whlch.will be made to.morrow. BONDON, March T, The.Daily News says a special convention has been entered into ander which the German occu? pation of Versailles ls- extended to the I9th of March. At the review of the Prussian Guards at Long Champs, the Emperor addressed the troops. He thanked them for the heroism, endurance and devotion they had displayed,. and added, (hey mus? than!; Providence for choosing them as i he Instruments to bring to pass events of such mag. nitude and renown. The Times announces the following changes in the ministry: Right Hon. George J. Goschen suc? ceeds Right Hon. Hugh C. E. Childers as first lord of the admiralty; Right Hon; James Stans? field succeeds Goschen, as president of the poor law beard; W. E. Baxter-succeeds Stansfield as one of the joint secretaries of the treasury, ano George J. Shaw Lefevre, at pro-it nt secretarj^for the home department, succeeds Baxter as secre? tary or the admiralty. In fae House or Lords yesterday the Marquis or Salisbury attacked. Ute foreign policy of the gov ernment, showing that foreign powers were all contemptuous In their manner towards England. Prussia bad declined. England's ?ld -in negotia? ting peace with France, and Russia bad repudia? ted obligations solemnly agreed to at the ead of the Crimean war. These Insults he'placed? in contrast with guarantees which England was party ^ and therefrom he deduced the decay of her International Influence. He urged reorgani? zation of the army, to the weakness of whlca he attributed much of England's loss of prestige. Granville protested against the unreasonable as? sault made upon the conduct of foreign affairs. He quoted a distinguished American oiUcer who had expressed his surprise at the complete state or preparation for war in which he found tlie British navy. The discussion ended by the adop? tion of an order for reprinting the-text of guaraa tees given bj England In continental matters. In the Hocse of Commons, Disraeli save notice that he should at a future day ask the govern? ment to Inform the House whether or not it wa* aware of last year's treaty between Prussia and Rust?a, when Odo Russell was sent to Versailles to consult Bismarck. Gladstone communicated to the Boase information received from west Meath County, Ireland, .confirming previous re? ports of the mischievous tendency of affairs there. He said special measures or precaution were needed, for the lives of judges in that coun? ty were threatened, uni he argea epeedy acl?on. The bill for army reorganizion was taken up. and there was a keen encounter over the clause abolishing tbe.' purchase of commissions-the supporters of the system predicting a loss of mili? tary character and prestige should it be done away with. Ead of the Occupation. LONDON, March 4. A special, to the Nsw York Herald rrom Paris describes' the scenes In Paris Just prior to tbe evacuation. The avenues are. almost deserted. There is an extraordinary scene at the Arc do Triomphe. Two pieces of artillery have been un? limbered, and the gunners are near at hand ready to sweep every avenue radiating .from the arch. There is also ? strong guard of infantry, with arms flied, bivouacked in the vicinity. The sol? diers are abging from song books by the light of the camp Ores. There ls much differer, ce In their temper, Borne fraternizing with the mouses, ex changing cigars and drinking wine, while others will not allow strang- rs near their fires. All are boasting of the conquest or Alsace and Lc- jue. yet are glad that the war is over, that they'amy get back to the Fatherland. No one ls allowed under the arch. In .the Place de la Concorde there is a strong guard or Bavarians lying on the ground in front of the gates of the Tuileries. A Bavarian sentry H picking Immortel'es from the statue or Strasbourg. Frenchmen sslng cried "Beware !" At mil?ght I le-entered^the French lines. Large, bodies or gj'ards werejta tloned around th? watch-flre?. As the Germans are to leave Farts this morning, the papers re? appear. After the Occupation. The German Emperor afterwards reviewed 100,000 men in the Bois, de boulogne.. The Prus? sian leaders are disappointed at the coldness and Implacable attitude br the Parisians. The author? ities are preparing to disband th? Mobile Guards lnPMfe The-city ls quiet to-day. A number of persons suspected to be spies have been arrested by the people, and several women seen talking with the Prussians m the Champs Elysees were severely han '.led. Open air meetings are held day and night in the Place de la Bastile, but no violence is reported. What the Papers Say. TheDeb'ats says, in spite of their patriotism, Alsace, Lorraine, Metz !a Pucelle, pass under the control of Germany. France cannot continue the ?war. The future does not beiong to us, but the following generations will take vengeance. We can only say three word?: "Silence, patience'' the other we dare not pronounce; but we have no right to decide for generations. They can act freely and decide how to act. The Peuple, in an article tlgned "Jules Valles," Indies the poor to a war against the rich. La Vente demands that merchants lu good stacJing be granted an addi? tional delay o'* one month In the payment or com? mercial bills. . All the journals say the Impression produced by the preliminary terms or peace ls very bad, and declare no peace real wh^n obtain? ed under duress; but they recommend calmness and concord as a means of making the country great and prosperous. The Evacuation. Another leuer. dated Friday, noon, says: The Prussian occupation of Paris has ended. The evacuation commence:! last night, though it was not generally known at ?his ? A. M. that it had begun in regular order, witn cavalry and artil? lery In advance, and on the sidewalk the Prussian and Bavarian infantry faced the roadway. At S.3Q^e first men or the main body passed through the Arc de Trir.mnhe wli?j '.'?nd's playing aa* oolera flying, straight untrer the arch, the obstacle J having been removed at the side of the column. General Shackeyer, commanding the Eleventh Corps, waa stationed, and received the salutes of Die meu la passing. Many of the men wore evergreens on their helmets, and one of th? regiments, to a man, was absolutely crowned with laurels. All restrictions as to persons passing ih and out of Paris have been, removed". . 5 Amiens. Another Herald special from Amiens, dated Friday night, says the greatest jjy and enthusi? asm at the announcement of the conclusion of peace is manifested at Headquarters and through? out the First Army Corps. The French command? ant has requested the German general In com? mand to give him arms for two companies, and also two cannon, to preserve the public peace, as the workmen intend making a* riotous demon? stration when the German troops shall have evacuated the place. No more requisitions have been Issned upon the Inhabitants, and many Prus? sian officers decline to dine at the nooses upon which they are billeted, unless they are invited by their hosts, becaus? they ?re now in receipt of their regular allowances. Paris Itself Again. PARIS, Saturday Night, March 4. Paris has resumed:* Its ordinary appearance. To-night the Boulevards are ...led with promena? ders. There ls no fear of disturbances. Nearly all the barricades have been removed. Several battalions of National Guarda proposed to restore tbe^guns they had removed from Place Wagrara-. The authorities replied the guns would be left un? der their care a few days longer, some battalions have signed a protest against the pretended con? trol of the Republican committee or the National Guard, which seeks to arouse agitation. A manifesto from Picard denounces the con? duct of certain person} who pillaged Gobelins after the departure of the Prussians, and. warns them that, while the government relies tipon the patriotism and devotion of the inhabitants, Gene? ral Viaoy ia de' ermined to do hie .duty by sternly repressing violations or order. -Uuctllaiteous. In the British House of Commons Friday night, Slr Robert Peel stigmatized the course of Lord Ly. ns In deserting the British population during the siege, and praised Minister Washbnrne for remaining. The Britiah iron-clad Water Witcli, . whose en? gines are worked by hydraulic power, has been condemned. ' y It is officially announced at Florence, Italy, that a treaty of commerce with the United States has been signed. Italy is about to go heavily into the manufac? ture of arms and the construction of defensive works. It is rumored that Napoleon is negotiating for au estate Lu Bohemia, to which to retire. It is beHeved, however, that he will go to England, and spend some time at Ohlselfmvst. It ls said that Prince Frederick Charles and Emperor William both drove into Paris Thurs? day. Tillers declines to make a treaty of commerce with Germany, on the ground that lt ls necessary for France to imitate the United States and re? store her equilibrium by high tann's. Bourbaki's army, which escaped into Switzer? land, wi:l be allowed to return to France thia week. , Tue Latent-Tlic UaaetAed Condition of Paris-A Collision at Angers. VERSAILLES, March 7. The news from Paris coBtlrms the rumors that the Inhabitants are*growlng suspicious, and are acting on the belief that every man's hand is against them. Foreigners generally are looked upon as spies, and in many Instances Americans and Englishmen have been Insulted and roughly handled In the stree?. Several of the assaulted persons barely escaped with their lives. The mob tn Paris, at present, ls almost wild with ex? citement, and the authorities appear to be po w er? ie ;s to prevent the spread of the threatened evo? lutionary spirit.

ThereRort and the evidence taken by the com? mittee TVere read, whereafter Mr. Hamilton ap? peared within the bar as counsel for the judge. The latter advanced various propositions in law ! to sustain hlspolot, that Judge Thomas, being a ! single mau, and residing the greater portion of the year at various hotels within the district, was j a resident of the district, and did consequently not violate the constitution, and that the House of Representatives had so decided on 'last Saturday.
