'Then,' said I, 'as you hadn't the moral courage'to do what you knew to be right, you- will have to surrender this place two years hence to me.' " -Dr.-Bruen.], a Cincinnati physician, -pollti . -clan and newspaper correspondent, visited Laura Fair, the tree-love murderess, in her j prison In San Francisco, and describes her as an affected, vain, unintelligent woman, with a -disagreeable voice. He does not even think ber beautiful. He says her face is round, her forth quite handsome; but her oyes are too -deeply set, and she has a low forehead. Dur? ing ois interview with the woman a letter Came to her from some crazy female in Ten? nessee, offering to endure imprisonment in her stead. The sheriff, as he was compelled to do, had opened this letter, for -which Mrs. Fair heaped on him the bitterest reproaches, speaking in such affected tones, and uals? .such affected gestures, as to make the exhibi? tion an evident display of very bad acting. The doctor had been.told that she was In the last stages of consumption; but he says that abe had nota single .symptom of that disease, j J and that the story had probably been s1 ar ted by some ot her friends to Create sympathy in her behalf. -The approaching public anniversary of Plo Nono, which Is looked forward to with so' much interest by all the Catholics ot the world, and by none with greater interest than by the Catholics of America, re m iuds every one of bow few of the Popes have reached the immense age vouchsafed to Kings like George III or Lon's XIV.

But for the peculiar circumstances in which he ie at present placed, he might hope to outlive many younger men, for he comes of a good stock, who bate al? ways objected to dying before their work was completed. '-The last of the many inundation? with which New Orleans seems destined to be per? petually afflicted, involved the loss of .about a million dollars' worth of property, and much personal discomfort and actual-suffering. The officers are busily engaged, night and day, in prpvidlDg for the relief of destitute, sick and helpless, in the vicinity of Derblgny and Clai? borne. streets, where the flood reached its greatest height. The feelings, not only of the residents of the overflowed districts, but of the community in general, are represented as being very bitter against Un city authori? ties, who have failed to prevent the re? currence of the disaster of 1869. The scenes in the streets were exciting and picturesque. They1 were crowded with bewildered and bedraggled men, women and children, and muddy vehicles, while every narrow strip of dry ground was piled high with household furniture of all kluds. Boats were constantly arriving to take, the drowned-out families to more congenial climes. Placidly cruising Over the troubled waters were ratt-loads of meh and women, whose scanty attire and gen? erous display of personal charms was sugges? tive ol a quiet desperation and carelessness in regard to all mundane affairs. Some es? sayed voyages ln-bath tubs and upon logs, but only succeeded In furnishing merriment for the crowd and compulsory baths for them? selves. Every fence, hdn?? and tree was completely covered with bugs and crickets in a state of consternation. The disaster'ls attri? buted to the Injudicious excavations made in the new levee at Hagan avenue. -In the Kelcbstag, on the 25th nil, and on the occasion of the third reading of the bill lor incorporating Alsace and Lorraine into the German Empire, Prince Bismarck made a speech foreshadowing the policy of the gov? ernment toward the conquered provinces. After alluding to certain misrepresentations of preceding speakers, the chancellor stated the great desideratum to b* the "securing to the Inhabitants of Alsace and Lorraine their lude-, neaalble public rights." Everything beyond that he deemed an adventurous policy. The important point was to limit legislation to the merely indispensable', postponing until a later day. matters of simple detail.' To the Alsa? tians must be conceded the right of German citizenship and free social and commer? cial intercourse with all parts of Ger? many, and the most feasible and ap? propriate method of conferring this citi? zenship appeared to establish the provinces as an Immediate Imperial territory, rather than to incorporate them with Prussia. Thus the mingling of dynastic and political questions would be avoided, and the prejudice of Alsatians against aajthiag Prussian, even name, r?spected.f'?n regard io subseqt measures, Bismarck declared that the wie of thc population should first of all be c 8Ulted?and tojfcls'end the Communal e tions, po8tpoafd last August, should be on ed. "This should be?o?lowed by au electioi conseils g?n?raux according lo the old Fre law, and as liberal a degree of autonomy a Compatible with thc security of the whole co try should be conceded. Having delineated polioy, Bismarck turned his attention to I amendments ef theblll,to which he objected accouut of the apparent lack of confidence the government which they Indicated. 1 first shortens the duration of the dictators and Its peculiar powers; the second limits financial powers and privileges. He protes that all he desired was time ?neugh to.ca tue whole . enterprise to completion, and tl he hud no itching for power, la Itself cons ered. "My temper and character," he c tiaued, -'make it by no means a necessity me to govern." And with considerable tt per be threatened to resign unless the flu ci?l relations v.* the government and the pr inceswere unlnterTered with, claiming tl the means of paying for all present wants h been satisfactorily provided, and that Alsf was free from debt. . "The Battle af Dorking." The opening article in Blackwood?* Mat, eine for May : "The Battle of Dorking Reminiscences pf a Volunteer"-has be read by tens of thousands on both sides the Atlantic. In this country all ba admired the finely painted picture-pi Raphaelite, almost to painfulness. T Englishman, however,- has read it with i deeper interest. To him it is the sound the death-knell of Albion.' The writer his magazine article (Colonel Hamley, it believed,) uses this method to arraign ti present British Government for their dilato policy last summer; for their pusUlaoimoi conduct, now meddling and now proclaimir rigid non-interferebce; and for their fauoU notion of security, when the very air. bristli with presages of coming danger. . Artic after article having - been published in tl quarterlies, in the magazines, and ia tl heavy weeklies on the situation; nod on tl unprepared condition of England to repel formidable foreign invasion, and all apparen ly unheeded-this writer has resorted to most ingenious method of compelling atfiei lion. He has adopted the plan so sdccessfoll practiced a century since by Swift, De Fe and Goldsmith, in chronicling- imaginar scenes and occurrences, with a rainutenes of detail and a realistic accuracy, that bc guiled even the moat wary into unwillin, belief. This old "Volunteer" purports 'ti narrate to bis grandchildren, ic the yea 1925, the conquest of England by the Ger mans in 1875. After a brief and disastrous struggle, 'in which be, the narrator, was om of the actors, humbly trying to do bis dui) to his country, our volunteer, who is witba a grim humorist, tells bis long story witl the most painfully minute detail, never ono smiles, nor betrays bis hoax by any binn dering anachronism. . With- the garrulity of age he bewail? th? ?ood old times of prosperity; be pictures,, ic powerful words, the growing strength and unparalleled success of the Prussians, and the imbecility and inefficiency of the part} then in power in England, that neglected warning after warning, uutil the 'disaster name and found them all 'unprovided. The crash began, he says, with a rising in india, that drew away a part of the army; then came the difficulty* with America, which bad been threatening for years, and ;en thousand men were sent off to Canada, ?hile a still larger force waa in Ireland, to uheck the rumored Fenian invasion from the {Vest. The fleet, too, was scattered abroad Ul over the world, and at that very time the Secret Treaty was published, and Holland md Denmark were annexed. At this, the rovernment, egged on by the prero and irged Uy public opinion, declared war. "It was on a Monday that -the declaration -'of war was announced," says this historian if the future, "and in a few boura we got 'our first inkling of the soft of preparation 'the enemy had made for the event which .they bad realty brought about, although 'the actual declaration was made by us. A 'pious appeal to the God of battles, whom 'it was said we hajj aroused, was tele 'grapbed back, and from that moment all .communication with the? North of Europe 'was cut off." The u?ual imbecility of the british Government in urgent times is then .xerapli?ed; for the golden opportunities of he first few days are lost, and it is not until he Tuesday fortnight following the declara ion of war that the fleet, the main depend mce of the nation, sets out for the North Sea. It was the 10th of August, 1875, that he fleet left the Downs, the admiral paying jut a submarine cable as it advanced, so that communications might be kept up.% On Thursday morning the wildest excitement was created bj the announcement, through ;be cable, that the enemy's fleet were in light. Shortly after that the action had >egun; then came the first, token of :alamity-the news that an iron-clad had )een blown up; then that the enemy's torpe - loes were doing great damage; that the lag-ship had been blown up; and then terrible, silence for two days, when a solitary, iron-clad, that had escaped the disaster, steamed into Portsmouth, and gave the de? tails of the destruction of ad the vessels of the fleet saye one. From her commander and crew it was learned that the English had attempted! to close with the enemy, who -rhc-ei ed ou", and left behind them the terrible engibes that had sent their ships, one after another, to the bottom. The government, it was afterwards found out, had received warnings of this invention, but had treated them with indifference. The blow fell upon the nation utterly unawares. The panic wus terrible; the -funds went down to 35; tho Bank of Eugland stopped; half the firms in the city fell. The people, flocked to arms, but the stock of rifles was deficient. A lot of smooth-bore muskets were distributed from the Tower, but there was no smooth-bore ammunilion in the country. There is a close parody, all through this article, of the histor)- of the late war be? tween France and Germany. England is supposed to have been surprised into a big war with Germany, confident, as France was, of sure and speedy victory, but in reality not a whit better prepared for such a struggle, neither as to her army or her navy. He describes the tumult and confusion, the blunders and the sufferings, incident to the "mobilization" of the volunteers, the ab? sence of efficiency in all departments, the iguorauce, both of officers and men, of the requirements ol a military life^wJjJr^mm ut?e faifriulnes?, bronght honi?'to as, as we saw every partent.it enacted in-?he first year qi our jate civil waf":. the military enthusi? asm that pervaded this city wTaen the three or foat,:regim?nt8 ?ame down Tronr tblrupr country, just before the* bombardment of Sumter, in April, 1861-ali the boys fresh in health, buoyant In spirits, comfortably clad, and brimful of martial ardor, restively chafing at compulsory inaction. Bat the oveot rudely demolished all our anticipations of speedy victory. All this again happened at Dork? ing, where tbe Germans landed and knocked the English into smithereens. Those of our officers who brought their best broadcloth, ting linen, ?fcc., 4c, along in trunks, in case they should wish to go into society, and lay by the Boldier for an hour or so, and of course at the very first march lost' "store" clothes, trunks and all, may find a satisfac? tion in the fact that at Dorking the very same thing happened to tho unfortunate volunteers. The author must have wit? nessed the opening of the'late struggle in France, else we do not pee how he could nave thought-of all these little things-unim? portant in themselves, but serving to make a perfect picture. Their German conquerors gave them credit for brave fighting and good shooting. "But,"'says the German, "they are nothing "at the drill; if they had been as good at ^drilling ai at shooting, we should not be "here.now." "Discipline," says another for that o? course is what they meant by drilling- "makes the good soldier."'! The battle is admirably painted, and the sufferings of the wounded, and theu, when all is over, the feeling of degradaticn'of the .Briton ra presence of an overbearing for? eign ' conqueror. "Think,." says the volun? teer lo his grandson, fifty years, af! er, "what those - endured, who, like myself, had "been citizens of 'the proudest nation on "earth, which had never known disgrace or "dejeat, arid wh3Se boast it used to be that "they bore a flag on which the sun never ."set. We had heartfpf generosity in war; "we round none; the war was made by us, "it was said, aud we must take-tue-conse "querrees. London and oar only arsenal (Woolwich) captured, we were at the "merey of oar captors, and tight heavily "did they tread on oar necks. Need I.tell "you the rest? of the ransom we had to pay, "and the taxes r?ised to cover it, which "keep us paupers to this day ? * * ''What -was there left to os to Uve for. "Stripped.of our colonies; Canada and the "West Indies gone to America; Australia "forced to separate; India lost forever, after "?he English there had all been destroyed, "vainly trying to hold the country when cht "off from and by their countrymen ; Glbral "tar and Malta ceded to the new naval "power (Germany;) Ireland independent, "aaa" in perpetual anarchy and revolution. "When I look upon my country as it is ' '.'now-its trade gone, its factories silent, its "harbors empty, a prey to pauperism and ?decay," Ac, 4c. "France was different; war ?"could not take away their rich soil; they "bad nb colooles to lose; their broad lands, ''which made lheir_wealth, remained to "them, and they rose again from th? blew." The design of the writer would appear to have been two-fold : a timely warning to his countrymen, and also a r?mohstrance against the course of the Germans, and their treat? ment of the French. The whole article abounds in good and quotable things, but our limits forbid further indulgence. The Proiane Major. A valued correspondent suggests that Major Barnaul Dickerson ought, in changing his company, to mend his manners. His re? cent harangues, rat the ward meetings of citizens, however well meant in their gene? ral drift, were blasphemous and vulgar to a degree. The major probably forgot himself, and fancied that he^was in a Military Hali caucus, or in the Oity Council. We-nope he will do better in future. i'aucral Notices.
