All the wine and liquor shops have been closed, and no spirits are allowed to be sold to the troops. -The Commune of Paris nave ordered the Cafe Gretryv on the Boulevard de3 Italiens, to be closed, for the reason that its patrons, . chiefly men on the Paris .'Chango, utter too many ruinous sentiments regarding the disas? trous financial effects of the revolution. -The New York World learns by a private letter from St. Petersburg that the Intended visit of the Grand Duke Alexis to this country has been not only postponed, but entirely given up. The World says that the Czar has been so much annoyed by the propositions made to him through his minister at Wash? ington from ambitious private citizens ol the United States eager to undertake the duty ol "lionizin??," lodging and banqueting his son, .that he has peremptorily put a veto on the whole expedition. -Mr. Frederick Gaillardet, the well known French Journalist, writes Irom Brussels slating his opinion on the question of the immediate future of France. He says that betting is going on at Versailles that the army and peo? ple of the rural districts will replace Louis Napoleon on the French throne, but, at the same time, he does not believe that such a result will upsue. As to the purposes of the Versailles Assembly his impression is, not? withstanding their Bourbon tendencies, that that they will maintain the republic. -Twenty-eight churches, most of them great churches of the first order, have been shut up in Paris by the orders o? the Commune. Among them are the Church of St. Genevieve (the Pantheon,) the Cnurch of Notre Dame de Paris, Notre Dame de Lorette, <fcc. Others, like the Madeleine and St. Germain l'Auxer rois, have been degraded to be places ol pub? lic resort for speeches, concerts, Ac. All the valuable articles in the churches seized have either been removed or placed under seal. Perquisitions have also been made on twenty seven religious houses and charitable institu? tions In Paris and tts environs. -A g.rl named Agnes Norman, aged fifteen TOSX5J Wat> ICijCULij onjit>;rrt ti?( uuiutu M i.\rn don Police Court, charged with suffocating the infant child of her employer. Facts adduced at the coroner's inquest seemed to justify the belief that the sirl had a mania lor causing death by suffocation. According to the testi? mony ol several persons who had formerly em? ployed her, wherever she lived in service, children, dogs, cats, parrots, gold-fish and pet birds had mysteriously died, and without ap? parent cause. The evidence of the physician tended to show that the child first mentioned had died from suffocation, the more especially as an imprint as of two teeth was seen on the lips. The girl declined to say anything, treat? ed the matter very quietly, and was remanded for further evidence. -The Oregon and California Railroad is making preparations upon rather a large scale to biing Immigration from Europe to settle up its vast land grant, which covers some of the most valuable ten ?tory of our Pacidc domain. 1 General Wilson, late commissioner of the gen? eral land office of the United States, is chief .manager for^the company in this business .Tiie immigrants will bc brought direct from 1 Germany iu ocean steamers, via Panama, and 1 transported without detention direct to the 1 railroad lands. The bonds with the proceeds 1 ot which the road is being built were negotia- 1 ted in Germany, and the lands are pledged for 1 their security and redemption. Thus an effect- 1 ive German interest was secured favorable to ! the success of the enterprise. . . I -A recent diplomatic correspondence ls the ' subject of much comment in medical journals. The Government of Ecuador has written to 1 that of the Uulted States in tho general Inter? ests of humaulty, requesting that an alleged discovery of a cure lor cancer and similar com- ' plaints 6hould be tested In this ceuutry. The 1 method of the discovery ol the virtues of the 1 specific is very suggestive. Previous to the 1 discovery, thu plant Irora which lt is procured 1 was regarded as a poison. Acting upon this 1 belief, an Ecuadorian Indian wife administered 1 a potage of lt to her liege lord. The experi? ment proved a great disappointment to the lady, as the husbaud not only did not die, but recovered from a cancer in the stomach, which, it not thus doctored, would in a few. months have finished him. -John Frederick William Herschel, Bart., whose unexpected death was announced by cable on Saturday, was born at Slough, near Windsor, (only son of the astronomer, sir Frederick William Herschel.) on Mareil 7,179J. He was educated at Saint John's College, Cam? bridge, where he won the honors ol senior wruugier in 1813. In 1826 the Royal Astro? nomical Society voled him their gold medal lor his observation* on the multiple stars, iu i connectlop. with Hie asirouomer South. The I astronomical society again voled him their , gold medal In 1836. for bis catalogue of nena. , Ix. in 1848 the astronomical society voted | him a testimonial for his work oa the southern < hemisphere, which embodied the results ol nia . observations made at the Cape of i;ood Hope I during the year? 1S34-8. In 1855 he was nom? inated to the honorable position of ono of the | . eight foreign ?ssociates of ihe French Acade- ( my. In 1850 he published his "Outlines of Ag- i tronomy," a manual, the value ot which, lu a i popular sense, can hardly be over-estimated. ! No mention of his failing health had been , made of tate in the English Jouruais. lt is , probable that his Incessant labors in scieuce, Which in recent years have been us severe as those of his youl h. have weighed him down, and as he bad passed three score and len, the strain upon the vital energies proved all at once too great -The Wtv-hiou'ton Captlfal says that the President gave a specimen ol his refinement : at the late state dinner. . It seems that Hr. Preston, tho "Haytien"Minister, has not been invited to aay of the3e dinners, because of a difficulty between these high contracting parties growing out of the late attempted an? nexation of San*Domlngo. Mr. Preston didn't like it, and so expressed himself. When the invitations were being given out for the late state dinner, it was understood that Mr. Pres? ton had left for home. And so an Invitation was sent him at the legation in Washlnton. The stupid secretary, not understanding the diplomacy i atended, telegraphed Mr. Preston in New York that he was invited to this din? ner, and this tropical diplomatic bird immedi? ately took the next train, with h?3 wife, and reached Wellington Just intime to attend the dinner. When the ghost of the late respected Banquo male his appearance at the state din? ner given oy his majesty King Macbeth, he did not create more consternation. The gov? ernment turned as many colors as the Turkish carpet in ti e East room, and when the minis? ter held oui his hand, hie Excellency put his two hands on thelman df his back,*not daring to place them in their usual receptacle, his breeches pockets, for fear the tropical diplo? mat might seize it anyhow, then wheeling, marched away. General Robert Y. Hayne. It is wita mournful pleasure that we write the name. Wien Ben Butler stands up and harangues an assemblag'e of Boston negroes, telling them that nothing could be more ia the fitness of things than that ignerant, be? sotted and thriftless colored people should rule South Carolina; nay, that they are far more fit to do such governing than the white people; and when Wendell Phillips, on Tues? day last, .n New York, contemptuously re? ferred to us, the white people of South Caro? lina, as 'the pitiful babes," it is indeed refreshing to take even a ha3ty retrospect? ive glancu at fouth Carolina, as it was in the palmy days of the Republic; when states? men who commanded the respect and ad? miration of the whole country, and orators scarcely second to the brilliant dialectician? of Athens or of Rome, listened with ears erect to the fervid eloquence of one of South Carolina's son3, on the floor of the United States Senate. Daniel Webster, we still in our simplicity believe, /asas great aman as -len Butler, and deserves quite a3 well of his country as Wenuell Phillips, yet he-the godlike Dan-never dreamed of banding over the Commonwealth uf South Carolina to tbe tender mercies of an ignorant horde of semi-barbarojs negroes; nor did the idea ever enter bis imagination of calling his political antagonist in the Senate Chamber a pitiful babe. These are modern discove? ries, in tbe science of Statecraft. We were led to this train of reflection by seeing in the Southern Review, published in Baltimore, a paper on the life and geniuB of Robert Y. Hayne, perhaps the most brilliant name in the annals of a State peculiarly prolific of illustrious sons. This sketch, it is under? stood, wa;, contributed by hi9 nephew, the well-known poet and litterateur, Paul H. nayue, Euq , and is as interesting a piece of personal r.nd political biography as we have read in a ong time. We have only room for a few extracts. First, as regards the elo? quence of the great Senator: "Like Chrysostom's, his oratory was 'golden mouthed.'_Deflcient neither in power nor in passion ; blazing, when the occasion demand? ed It, with a righteous scorn or fiery Invective, j lt was chiefly through a cordial magetism of | persuasive warmth, that he won the hearts of his hep.rers, played upon their sympathies as one might play upon the strings of an Instru? ment, and finally so melted and fused in the glow of his own equable but Intense genius the Individuality of others, that, foi the mo? ment, they saw with his eyes, reasoned with his judgment, and felt with his spirit, surren? dering their intellectual and spiritual identity to thc forces of a spell as sott as it was Irre? sistible. He never lost, at-the height of a great argument, or even in he sweep and rush of just denunciation, thai supreme self-restraint which, alwavs Implying a reserve of power, muk es the orator so emphatically master of his theme, situation and audience. . * * * Uu.'ike the elaborate masterpieces of Legare, which often confounded the ignorant, and daz? zled, rather than illuminated the average miud, reserving their lull effect for the appreciation of the scientist and scholar, Kayne's speeches took captive the learned and ignorant alike ; tlu*y addressed not so much the taste as the soul, not iio much the casuistic brain as the inlenc, ur sophisticated affections. Over those leelings in mau which are primitive, simple, universal, such as recognition of natural rights ind repudiation of unnatural wrongs-all can? did, spontaneous emotions which enter into the constitution of unspoiled manhood, un-con? tradistinguished from the more complex sen? sations au! sensibilities which belong rather lo the region of art-over all these Blayne's ora? torical sceptre was complete. ..Before a brutal, infuriated mob, ripe lor mischief, lt not blood, Hayne would appear with a bold front and kindling eye, and hardly tiad hu lifted his hand aud uttered a few words ot 'expostulation and warning, in his clear, re? sonant voice, ere the rude chaos was stilled ; anger gave place to respectful attention, atten? tion to couvlction, and the insubordinate crowd, be it some moments previous upon acta of lawlessness, were transformed Into decent, sober, obtdtent citizens." The great debate with Webster, in 1832, is thus alluded to: ';The occasion upon which Hayne was called forth to advocate the doctrine ol' State Rights, ftc., can never be forgotten in the history ot Congressional debate. Then it was that he en? countered tho great apostle of Consolidation, Daniel Webster. For the first time In the country's history the principles ol State sov? ereignty and centralization, .stripped on either sia-.- of all disguises, were opposed In inonul combat upon the lloor ol thc Senate. * * * All conipiomise between them was over. The Issue had been sharply drawn. In Hie pres? ence of the elect for wisdom, reputation and experience, from every portiou of America, a battle was to be louttit and a decision arrived tit which, little as some concerned therein might foresee the truth, wus destined to build between the two great sections of the bind a wall of partition-moral, political and social which only the violence of revolution coula area:, down. '.Never, perhaps, was a senatorial debate iollowed through all Its details with such pas? sionate, absorbing eagerness. Tue long galle? ries, as Macaulay says of a famous English trial, were crowded by such an audience 'at tius rarely excited thu tears or the emulation uf any orator. Ttiere were gathered from every part ol' u vast realm, grace and female loveliness, wit and learning, with not a few representatives of science and the arts.' '.As Itu debate deepened In Its meaning, and grew more rapid lu the flow or its argument, and the tla>li of its Bery invective, irrepressi? ble buraui of enthusiasm and applause broke forth iron every quarter ot the hall. The speeches on both sides have long ?aketi their place as classics in the volumes of American eloquence. Every school boy is familiar with them, from the Penobscot to the Bio Grande ! * ?* * * At the ooncluslon of Hayne's speech-the second speech of the great series -the triumph of his friends at what was uni? versally felt to-be a masterpiece of dos? rea? soning and impassioned eloquence, was only surpassed by the chagrin, mortification and alarm of his enemies. The New Englanders, for the time, were well nigh paralyzed. They lost confidence in their champion. But we are bound to say, that as yet, they did not know their man. They did less than justice to the resources of a mind of the loftiest order and the most comprehensive range and grasp. "Webster's 'reply,' observes McDuffie, (in his eulogy on Hayne,) 'was undoubtedly a powerful display of controversial dialectics.' It was far more than this. Considered from an artistic and rhetorical point of view, it Btands unequalled, except by some of the finest utterances of Burke. Remarkable for its perfection of style and richness of illustra? tion, its searching, sarcastic bitterness, and a certain splendid amplitude and rounded reso? nance of language, lt was not less remarkable for adroitness of suppression, and the quiver? ing, arrow-like keenness with which impracti? cable points were glanced over, or deftly avoided. But does the logic of the central argument rise to a level with the beauty of the I rhetoric, or equal to the almost inimitable finesse, the adroit d?gage grace wherewith a damaging fact, or conclusion fatal to his cause, is airily dismissed, or veiled In the glittering cloud of his matchless Irony ? "We maintain that Webster's constitutional ] argument, lauded by his allies as profound, exhaustive, unanswerable, so far from having overthrown his opponent, leaves him where he had taken his stand at the beginning of the controversy, unmoved and undismayed, his feet firmly planted upon the granite rock of | the resolutions of 1708 !" Of Hayne's personal appearance, we are told: "In person, Hayne was above the mellum height ; large limbed and compactly formed, I with unusual breadth of chest and shoulders. I His features were strongly marked and some? what irregular, and his eyes of that light neu? tral grey, which ordinarily seems to be lacking in depth and expressiveness. 'In repose his countenance was heavy. If not dull, but once animated by the soul and genius which lay be? hind Its impassive surface, the transformation was startling. Then his grey eyes kindled, deepened, grew inspired ; every linc of his face woke, as lt were, from slumber, and every feature blazed with eagerness, Intelligence and passion." fttarrieD.
