Foreign New?. PAMS, July 14.-As predicted in pre? vious despatches, the Emperor yields his ns8ont to tbe demand of the legislative body, the nature of which has been already stated. No change in the Min? istry has yet been announced, but tho reorganization of the Cabinet within a short time is certain. Throughout the whole of this crisis the Emperor has ex? hibited his peculiar tact and shrewdness. He invited nearly all the deputies in the Corpa L?gislatif to dinner and soiree at St. Cloud this week. He hos chatted playfully with many of thora, of all shades of opinion, giving expression to many of those piqnaut sayings so attrac? tive to Frenchmen. For instance, to one, by whom he hod been taken by the bntton-hole, he said: "Ah! Monsiour Buffet, you mean to tako hold of my coat for fear I may pull back." To u group of several, with whom he was con? versing on the situation, ho said: "You begin to trent me like the old lion in the fable, trying to cut my nails and take ont my teeth, and leave mo nothing but my mane, whioh is considered harmless." To others he said: "Tho elections prove clearly that I must choose between the empire and revolution. Between neither system can individuals bo set up." To others he said: "I will give full satisfac? tion Lo tho liberal aspirations of ali par? ties, but have decided to cease couces sions nt tho boundaries prescribed in thc constitution." While tho Emperor's conduct for the past few days is regarded as adroit, it is not considered likely to stop agitation for further concessions nud reform. The Thiers party deeming tho message of tho Emperor satisfactory, havo with? drawn the proposed interpellation. Tho Deb?is to-day, commenting on the political reforms promised by the Emperor, thinks it impossible to over? value their meaning, and uujust not to bo grateful for the Emperor's conces? sions. It is officially announced that tho Se? nate will bo convoked for August 2. The session of the Corps L?gislatif will be immediately prorogued, and resignations of ministers accepted. LONDON, July 16.-At Lurgan, Ire? land, on the 12th instant, au Orango mob was pelted with stones. They re? taliated by utterly destroying seventeen houses occupied- by Catholics.

An engagement is re I '/ed, in which the Spanish troops ... re defeuted. Under direction of the volunteer junta, tho property of Cubans snspeoted of sympathy with the insurrec? tion is being seized and confiscated. Families are driven from their homes, and the houses given up to pillage. Present indications point to unother heavy reduction of the public debt dur? ing the month. Customs and internal revenue receipts are very favorable. A special, dated Havana 12, via Key West of the 14th, says General Huella, at the head of 300 Spanish marines, was attacked by the patriots near Baga, a small town situated on the same bay LS Neuvitas. Tho marines wero forced to fall back upon Neuvitas with a loss of eighty, including Goneral Kudla. Bichard D. Dehart, of Indiana, has been appointed Consul to Santiago de Cuba.

The Court adjourned till 10 o'clock to-morrow. DEATH OF A PIWZE FIOOTEB.-A fow weeks ago the pap?is of this locality con? tained an account of a prize fight be? tween a coupio ot men in tho town of Covert, which resulted in the death of one of tho parties-McGraw-and tho escape of tho other. Donnelly. Now comes the sequel. A few days after tho death of McGraw, while the officers were seeking Donnelly, word was received by Dr. Wheeler, of Farmer Village, from that individual, requesting his immedi? ate attendance upon him, as ho lind fallen from a rooky height and injured himself severely. Tho Doctor returned an an? swer to the effect that ho would render bis assistance, provided D. would give himself up to the proper authorities, which, upon due consideration and the necessities of the case, he agreed to do, and was taken to Farmer Village, where Dr. Wheeler, after an examination, dis? covered that Donnelly's leg had been fractured in such a manner, and neglect? ed so long, ns to render amputation ne? cessary, which operation was performed, but tho man had become so weakened from exposure that he sank under the treatment aud died, thus terminating the greatest excitement which the quiet neighborhood of Covert has ever expe? rienced.- Watkins (AT. Y.) Democrat. So certain are the Californians that tbe problem of ?-rial navigation hos been solved by the machine that has just been invented in San Francisoo, that one of the papers positively aunonnces: "With? in four weeks thu icriul steam carriage, capable of conveying six persons, and propelled nt a rato exceeding the mini? mum speed of thirty miles aa hour, will wing its flight over the Sierra Nevada on its way to New York aud othor re? mote parts." This announcement was made on June 26, and we may, therefore, soon look for the appearance of the great leriol steam carriage. When we see it, wo shall begin to believe that the San Francisco paper knows what it means by saying: "Within a year wo shall travel habitually to New York, Eu? rope and China by ferial carriages." Says tho Tribune, of New York: 1 'General Daniel E. Sickles was greeted last evening by tho largest assemblage of distinguished citizens that ever gathered to attest their trust in and regard for a native of our city." As there wai not a single lady present, it is pretty evident thal the women of New York have a good deal more self respect than many of its men. [Chicago Times. In one of our largo cities, a short time ago, a Western editor was met by a friend who, taking him by the hand, ex? claimed: "I am delighted to see you. How long aro yon going to stay?" "Why, I think," said tho editor, "I sh ll stay while my money laste." "How disap? pointed I am," said the frioud, "I hoped you wore going to stay a day or two. " Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, (Rev.

A CONFED?RATE BOLDIXB NOT ENTITXIED TO DAMAGES.-Two oases were tried at Aramance Superior Court, last week, where three persons sued the North Ca? rolina Railroad Company for damages sustained by an explosion of powder, stowed in the oar in which they were rid? ing, about the olose of the war. Ireland and Duke obtained damages-the former for $2,000, and the latter for 810,000. Bot the point to which we direct atten? tion is the decision of Judge Tourger in the case of S. 8. Turner, who also sued for damages. The judge decided that inasmuch ns Turner was n Confederate soldier, and on his way to report for duty at Gen. Johnston's headquarters, thus violating the law, he was not enti? tled to recover damages from a common carrier. From this decision tho counsel for Turner appealed to the Supremo Court.- Salem (N.
