Teach? ers ire expected from all parts of the Union. -The Russian General To d tie ben is to go to France as soon as quiet ls restored, to visit the scenes of the. late war. It ls rumored that he Intends to make a' report of his observa? tions to the Czar, and publish lt In the interest of military science. -The Greek aristocracy are by i o means pleased with the conduct ot their King, Geor-1 glos Rotes. He ls charged with being a trifling J sort of a fellow, too fond of strong drink, and perfectly happy only when playing with his tame birds, of which be has a great many. In consequence of this predilection of their sov? ereign, the Athenians say, sneeringly : ;*If the bandits in the mountains were only mag ' pies, the King would have caught them long ago," -Japan is moving. Ten years ago the feu? dal system was In full force throughout the Empire. Political and commercial intercourse with the Western nations have communicated an impetus to Its Btagnant conservatism, and its feudalism has become a thing of the past. So completely has tbe old civilization of the Country been modified by Occidental Influ? ences, that an English resident has translated a series of old Japanese tales, In order to pre? serve a picture of manners and customs that have become obsolete within.the last decade. -At the recent opening of the Royal Albert Hall, in London, an inciden! occurred which is strongly commented on by correspondents. The Princess Louise, then the bride ol a week, was present, but royal etiquette put asunder her and her.husband, the Marquis of Lorne, and he walked several ranks below her In tie cortege of honored guests, on the dais stood some distance apart from her, and when the whole parly went to their boxes cotdd not sit in the same one with her. Marrying a Princess did not make a mana Prince, and although no one seemed to be troubled about lt, yet it seems a queer social law that places the hus? band so far below his wife when the eyes of the world are upon them. -The Hebrew News ls a new weekly paper in New York. The greater part of it is printed In Hebrew characters. The editor, in explana? tion, says: "Thousands of our fellow-ciiizens who have come from Eastern European coun? tries are unable to read either German or Eng? lish, bot only pure Hebrew .letters, while they have received the education suited to the re? quirements of their native country, and possess knowledge and business capacities; they, in this busy country, can find no time to acquire a knowledge of reading and writing the lan? guage of their new home. Many thousands are large property-owners, carrying on exten? sive business, ?there are honest mechanics. Still they (eel themselves deprived of that which ls BO dear to them-the news of the country which they consider their own." -A New York letter sap] : "Many readers will remember the Butlers of South Carolina, one ot whom long represented that State in the Senate. Another, Pierce, but not the dis? tinguished senator, married Fanny Kemble long years ago, and their daughter inherited what was once a very handsome property In Georgia. There was some trouble between the parents, so the mother lived in England, ?while the daughter remalnod In this country with her lather. A lew years ago he died, and, though often visiting her mother, she still preferred to live on the old family place at the South. Last winter an English gentle? man travelling in thac section was anxious to visit a well-organized rice plantation, and con? sequently became the guest of Miss Butler. The result of this visit ls that in May she will go to her mother in England, and there be? come the wife of the Hon. Mr. Leigh, whom she entertained just one year ago." i -The Parliament ol the German Empire, which has just met for the first time in nearly fifty years, was elected by manhood suffrage and by ballot, and consists of 383 members, or one representative for about one hundred thousand persons. The Parliament, which ls established on the basis of the new constitu? tion, ratified by the States composing the Em? pire, bas 236 members from Prussia, 48 from Bavaria, 23 from Saxony, 18 from Wurtem burg, 14 from Baden, 9 from Hesse, hud *35 from the minor Sutes ot the North, making 383 in all. The relative strength; of the politi? cal parties is said lo be as follows: Conserva? tives 70, of whom 60 represent the Prussian country gentlemen interest. There are 20 Free Conservatives or Constitutional Tories, or friends of Prince Bismarck. The moderate Liberals coming from all parts of the Empire number 147. The advanced Liberals are 30 lu number, and the Ultra-Montanc party has 70 adherents. The Secessioulsts or Opponents of Ihe Empire, coming from Hanover and Schleswig-Ho stein, are 10 In number. There are 2 Socialists, 13 Poles and 1 Dane. -The Pall Hall Gazette publishes an advance copy of a letter from M. Clement Duvejnots, a former literary aid-de-camp to Napoleon, to M. Thiers, In which he indicates the design of the Imperialists to attempt the restoration ot the dynasty. He says he has nothing lo hope from ihe present government. Just as the .Government ol National Defence occupied It seii much more actively in fighting against the Empire than fighting against ihe Prussians, so the government which succeeded have thought only of denouncing the Bcnapariisis, instead of repressing the designs of ihe dema? gogues. He declares that -Thiers aud lils ministers, by their speeches, rendered war with Prussia Inevitable', and by their opposi? tion to permanent armies, &c, crippled the military resources of France. He also asserts that peace on favorable terms might have been made after-sedan it M. Thiers and his friends had not overthrown the re sponslble government, and reminds them that for the miserable state of ParlB at the present momerdVthey ar?f responsible, In so far as they de m anded the arming of the National Guards of Belleville and Montmartre. M. Du ve mois shows the incongruity of the present govern? ment-a Republican ministry accepting powef" from a monarchical chamber-and its inherent weakness. He then unfolds the Imperial plan, as not a party, but a principle and a system. 'The principle ls that ot a monarchy based upon the national will directly expressed; the system is the conciliation of classes under the auspices of a strong power. We believe that in a country where the monarchy ls no longer a dogma of divine right, and which does not again desire the Republic, the only possible government is a monarchy resting on the na? tional sovereignty.*" Li Commune. It is necessary to go back to the earliest acts of the French Socialists of 1818 if we would understand what the Gommnniets of 1871 are fighting for. After the overthrow of the government of Louis Philippe the Socialists obtained a strong representation in the Provisional Gov? ernment One of the decrees issued the day after-its instalment ordered the raising of a large popular national guard, to be paid a franc and a half a day, and clothed by the government; another, the next day, ordered all articles pledged in-pawnshops to be re? stored to the owners at the public expense; another made the Tuileries an "asylum for "invalid workingmen;" another formally guaranteed employment to all citizens, and "restored to the ouvriers to whom it belong "ed" the million of florins jost falling due on the civil list. The issue of these procla? mations was forced on the Provisional Gov? ernment by the state of things in Paris. The streets were still full of barricades ; the ouv? riers were armed, and, as now, refused to abandon the barricades and go home, until they had been fully assured that the govern? ment was not going to "betray" them. Even the presence of Louis Blanc and of Albert, "the Ouvrier," as he called himself in the government, was not eudlcient to reassure them; so that the sane members of the gov? ernment were really obliged to let Louis Blanc and Albert have their way, in order' to ?rain time, and the programme of these latter gentlemen was as yet only half-reveal? ed. To them the Republic meant what Louis BIUDC called "the organization of labor," that is, the establishment of government workshops for all branches of industry, in which all persons who chose could lind em? ployment, nod would receive equal rates of pay ; the establishment of government banks, at which all citizens could get their bills discounted; sud, in fact, the complete de? struction of the present relation of capitalist and laborer, this being in Socialist parlance the "exploitation of man by man." The Provisional Government was actually com pelled'to recognize the soundness of all these principles by public proclamation, but, to escape or postpone the consequences of its concessions, it appointed a "Government "Labor Commission," pat Louis Blanc and Albert at the head of it, and sent it over to the Luxembourg Palace tor hold its sittings; and to this flowed the enormous processions of workmen, or "manifestations," as the French called them, to which the laboring clas3 gave itself wholly up in those days, thus giving the other members at the Hotel de Ville time to attend to the more serious aud pressing affairs of the nation. I The Provisional Gpvernmeut were anxious to snmmon a National Assembly as soon as possible to relieve them of the responsibility they had assumed. This was opposed by the Socialists who desired that not only Paris bot the whole of France should be governed by the Commune, that is, by a body elected by a majority of the Puris voters. In the eyes of the Parisians, and particularly in' the eyes of the Communists, "Paris" has as? sumed the position of an ideal being of supe? rior might and wisdom, and entitled to rule by virtue of this superior might and wisdom. This justified the plan of having Prance ruled by the Commune. In 1848 the notion was only beginning to tab* possession of the popalar miud ; the events of the past twenty years have helped to spread and strengthen it ; Gam betta's persistence io carrying on the war by virtue of authority derived from a Parisian mob, and refusing to take the sense of the country at large, is a striking illustration of the strong hold it has taken even of the minds of educated men of the radical school. When the Assembly met, in 1848, it found the government workshops in full activity, and the whole working population asserting "the right to labor." The government had 6000 mea in its employ the 15th of March ; by the end of the month, 30,000; and by the end of April, 100,000, and the numbers were increasing with frightful rapidity'. The pri? vate factories were all deserted; swarms of lazy and idle men began to pour in from the country districts. The co-operation associa? tions stopped their own work and went off to live at government expeuse; large num? bers of stadents, artists and writers followed, their example. All that anybody had to do was to give h's name and calling and ad? dress. At first there was some attempt made to lind them something to do. Parties . were even detailed to plant "trees of liberty;" but of course it became imposaible to find work, and all pretence of linding it \vu3 abandoned, ami the huge and motley host was actually divided int? "squads" aud "brigades," under leaders, and marched up to draw its pay, over which lhere were con? tinual fights. When the Assembly met, it found nearly two hundred thousand Uren living in idleness on the public, the treasury empty, business totally suspended, and soci? ety on the verge of dissolution. It speedily stopped the Influx iuto Paris, abolished ihe Luxembourg Commission,'ordered the work-J itigmen to prepare to gu to the country to work there, and '.irected all idle men between seventeen aud twenty-five lo euler the anny or gr about their business. The Beds at once rose in arms, and fought the three bloody days of June. The Assembly hud taken the place of "ihe Commune," put un end to vhe great ?tions toabolish "hereditary "poverty," und, in short, hud "betrayed the '.Democralic Republic," and the Assettioly, of course, represented Hie ignoranl, brutal, degraded proviuces. Tue Empire agaiti, w.?ch overthrew the Assembly, und reigned tn Us steud, wus ulso ihe product of the pro? vincial vote, uud, in keeping down Social? ism, wus carrying out the will of ihe peas unis. The ideas about property, and government, and lubor, and cupltul, which found expr?s-1 sion in the Socialist experiment ia 184?, have boan gaining grand pretty steadily, under cover of the ignorance and silence and repression which the Empire encouraged and maintained; and aide by side with them has been growing the worship of the goddess, ?Taris," the centre of enlightment, and the fountain of ?progfess, under the influence of the continued increase of population and luxury wrought by the Imperial r?gime. This ?rabies U3 to understand the frame of mind in which the vast body or ouvriers, whom the downfall of the Empire had thrown I out of employment, and whom the loafing during the siege with armB in their hands and high paid had utterly demoralized, wit? nessed the appearance of another Conserva? tive Assembly at Versailles. To their lead? ers it meant the disappointment of the fierce hopes ol years; and to the men, a return to the old rocnd of toH;. and to both,, the sub? jection of Paris once more to the degrading yoke of the "rurale," as they call the country people. The term "rurals" is",, in the month o? a eity Frenchman of any class, an expres? sion of the bitterest contempt. The two classes are described by The Nation, in an article from which we have quoted, as fol? lows: "The peasant cautious, timid, grave, "unenterprising, Bupicious,-frugal, laborious, "conservative, religious, Tull of reverence for "property and family, and all established in? stitutions; while his brother in the city is "rash, gay, excitable, adventurous, pleas? ure-loving, extravagant, without faith in "God; or confidence in man or woman, full "of contempt for marriage, very licentious, "a hater of law and of property, arid of all "sorts of restraint and discipline, and hav "ing. impatience of labor and passion for "equality as his most powerful springs of "action; gullible, fickle; capable of acts of "the loftiest generosity, and of the vilest "cruelty within the same half hour, and "awept like the chaff before the wind by "every gust of feeling that runs through the "incoherent mass to which he belongs." In this may be found the explanation of the devotion of the peasantry to Napoleon, of the little faith of the-peasantry and the mid? dle classes in a so-called Republic, and of the crimes which cause the Communists of Paris to be regarded with loathing and horror by the whole civilized world. New Books. IN EXILE. Translated from the German of W. Von Sr. Philadelphia : Jv B. Llpplncott CO. 1871. Charleston: Holmes's Book house. The central idea of this ' work is simple. An exiled Prince marries a young and beau? tiful giri, ia order to give the lie to an infa? mous report, which brings disgrace upon, his Dame and threatens to alienate the affec? tions of his children. With a full knowledge of all the facts, the young heiress enters upon the path marked out for ber, and the interest of the main plot lies in the process of psychological development by which Bhe learns to love her husband, and by which he is turned from the gloom' of the past and taught to be happy in the enjoyment of her affection. The wife becomes a wife in truth as well as in name, but in the last scene of ail, which ends the saddening history, the thoughts of the dying Prince fly lovingly back to tbe one woman who was the .canse of ali his afflictions. The side plots are bright and striking, and the book is a pleas? ant one to read ; especially to tho9e who de? sire to become familiar with that class of German fiction whose force depends upon the analysis of ideas rather than upon a descrip? tion of stirring events in the bower, the court, or the field.
