But it will not J do hastily to conclude, on no stronger promises, that the deliberate judgment ? o?'-the French people is in favor of a; republican form of government. Thoy ' moy or they may not be. We trust they ] ar?, and that they will develop, as time, progresses, that calm. and thoughtful temper on p ol i tiaol affairs that alone pap, -mato o repablio successful. But - tho repont .election was hold uudor very r peculiar. oiroumatance?,, by no ,ta^? | ooioulated to. bring out, a frank and de ?3tSed judgment of , the. ..French, .people1 -on the form of go vermont that was boatj ?.adapted to thojrgouerul condition. They jaBt emerged from, two bloody und disastrous wnrs, WCJQ iu a atftto of oivll ?anarchy, and the nation, was o?ntonfc to aupport any government -for the time -being. A: rep ubi io being already in ex? istence, it wan tba . ni oat oonv'ouient ro iugo, and' they took; to it, until war's alarms should bo no longer heard, and as the only one that could be sustained st-tbe time, without aggravation of the publip calamity. It was a provisional re? sort, to be adhered to at least until a .?compl?te .restoration of quiet, when some candid expression of publie opinion could be .safely given. The Savannah Republican thin ka thia evident from the ladt ?hat, although the monarchists and imperialista constitute large parties-iu Franco-perhaps more than a mere ma? jority of her people-their voices wero almost entirely unheard in the election; at least they voted for the present go? vernment as the only one that oould be set up peacefully under- existing circum? stances. Su oh, at least, is our own - opinion of the matter, and the future -will determine whether we aro right or wrong. ROYALTY AND RICOHS,-Time was when lunge owned their realms and all their j -?abjecte, and all that those subjects pos? sessed. This was in the day of divine 'right, and no monarch thought of a '?rainy day;'* but in these latter times, 'when the poople are becoming uncom? fortably intelligent, avery wino king puts] away a portion of his inoome, and invests in foreign countries, in expectation of a flitting. Napoleon I was unfortunato io .being caught by "the most generous of j his enemies," bat Louis Philippe made money and gavo his family a luxurious .home in England. Napoleon III feather? ed an English nest for his wife and son. Isabella, of Spain, continues her plea? sures with gold prudently sent away in 'her prosperous days, Viotor Emanuel, ?not;Ioug si nco a penniless king, is now the possessor of 820^000,000 ia money alono; and it is said that Albert, the ju dioioas Prinoe-Ooosort of England, fore? seeing the spread of Republicanism and .danger to royalty, enjoined that economy which the Queen ao rigorously praotioes, saying: "The time may come when the . savings you lay by now will be the only .?-resp n roos left you." There never was a ?more moral, prudent and Troll behaved ! "family than that of Victoria, and yet) ' there never was a time in English histo? ry wnen royalty was so lightly, esteemed as now. _ The Paris correspondence of the Lon? don Mercantile Gazette says that it is cal culf.tod that by death, emigration and arrests, the population of Paris has di? minished by one-?ighth during the last .twelve months. The city looks gloomy and empty, and tho only Bho.w of ani? mation about it is imparted by the tour .ist?, who ooma to look at its ruins. Numbers o' wealthy French families aro leaving tho ci ty, and tho foreign, colonies caa hardly be said to exist. If tho As? sembly should persist in remaining out of Paris, years must elapse before the city pan recover its old appearanco of gayety.' Prom Parla-Rapid Recovery at lb* Capital* PAMS, July 1, 1871*-Of jil the ? strange, fantastic kier?glyphipal places on tue foco of the globe, th* modern Babylon, commonly called the'capital of Franco, and the chief ;oentre of civi? lization, is assuredly and indisputably tho etraugeat and most wonderful. Even Frenchmen themselves,, accustomed as they are to sudden changes, constant variety and continual excitement, are tho first to give vent to their astonish? ment and admiration at the Bpeedy, rapid manner' iu which Paris, fagged, tattered and; tom, eoaroely a fortnight ago, luis, by a m ngia m?tamorphOBia, worthy of .Aladdin's lamp, become once more the guy centre of fasbiou, floe arts, gaiety, rnusio and pleasure. Won? derful, unheard of, it indeed is, and two weeks of peace and repose bave worked miracles; for not only Paris is again blazing in all its former glory, but the blood v traces of Ibo terrible oonfliots that raged within its walls have all die appeared, in certain quarters of the city, under tho axe and, shovel of thousands of workmen, and, with the exception of the most important ruina, and the scene of destruction outside the fortifications, it is becoming- daily a rare occurrence to witness any .vestige of tho cruel "Cora? mil no," now powerless and scattered to tile winds. : Busiaeesis rapidly improving; count? less,strarigore arriv? in swarms;ot all the railway stations by hight au il day; tour-: ?ipts, aight-Boera,,aud Provincials' as well aa- Parisians, returning to their homes, .and soldiers paying-tribute to the qaeen ,0f oities alter their long incarc?ration in the prisons pf Qsrmsny; Excursions and pleasure trips have boen inauguro ted iu London by enter? prising -managers, who, at a fixed price ?xceedingl;, reasonable,, by the way, (ten lonoda : sterling,)- agr?a to forward sight-snore, tia .Dover, to sunny Franco, lodge and feed "them lox a week;Or ten days aV a-first-olass hotel, and show th cm tho superb ^rai?a of 'the Hotel de Ville, tho Tuilloriea/aud tho ashy squvenirs of the Prussian, investment.

It ia generally supp unod that-the prioe Of al tn OR,t every commodity has beeb greatly augmented si ne'e Paris has once more been, opened to the outside world. This i is not the ouse j nat' at present, although before the end- of summer it is highly proba? ble, fx"' j J - - . Food is plenty of the very boat quality, and is obtainable at the very same prices aa before tho siego, excepting iu the aristocratic cafes aud restaurants on tho grand boulevards, where everything is three or four sons dearer. Gabs, though ?ot numerous, still ore to be bad at the old prices (rf your physiognomy piensos .the Jehu you tuay happen to hail, and if a good "pour boire** is promised); but all such inconveniences will disappear in a few dnya, for there are enormous quantities of horses in Paris-not thin, bony,. wretched speoimens, but fat, plump, beautiful ones. "Horses are plentiful, but cabbies aro scarce." Every? thing promises an exceedingly brilliant fall. STORM LAST SATURDAY.-On Saturday afternoon, a very heavy storm of wind and rain passed over this oity, prostrat? ing reveral fruit and shade trees, and injuring others by breaking off their branches. East of the city, we learn, a very heavy foll of hail ocourred on some of the farms, by which the corn blades were pelted into ribbons, and muoh of the corn blown down. At the commencement of the storm, the residence of Mr. T. H. Oole, five miles East of this place, was streck by lightning, the stroke taking effect on the corner of the building, doing but slight damage outside, and then making ita way inside to a closet, where it scattered tho glass and orookery therein and splin? tered a portion of the wood work. In this room, a girl was sitting with one of Mr. Cole's children in her lap. They were both thrown to the floor by the shock, but suffered no injury. Beyond the alarm created by the sudden danger, none of the rest of the family were affected.-Oreen ville Mountaineer. HON. JEFFERSON DAVIS.-A ri il ion lo us story is going the rounds of the sensa? tional press to tho effect that Hon. Jef? ferson Davis ran off with another man's wifo on Tuesday night, the 11th instant, iron: Memphis, Tonn., taking tho train for Huntsville, Ala. As there is a doss of people who are ready to believe any? thing that may be said against the Con? federate ex-President, it will not be amiss to state that be was at Barnum's Hotel, in Baltimore, on Wednesday, the 12th instant, which would have allowed him about twenty-four hours in which to make a trip of some 900 miles. Of course tho story is a pure fabrication, and a very disgraceful one for its au? thor.- Baltimore Sun. A negro named Smart Loyd, stole a bushel of corn from Sojourners Mill, at Graham's, in this State. Smart "ac? knowledged the oom," end proposed to leave it to a jury of his poors, as to the punishment.he should receive. Accord? ingly he was allowed to eeleot six jurors, who rotired to the abados of an umbra* goona oak, and there deoided that be should be allowed to receive forty lashes, save ono, for his crime. The names of the jurors were then pot into a hat and Smart drew from them the name of Abra? ham Walker, wbo then and there admi? nistered the dose of forty, save one? to the satisfaction of all, save one. A negro lad in Newbern, N. C., killed an in faut on Friday last-while chunking it "just for fuul" A UNITED STATES MARSHAL MURDERED IN TENNESSEE.-Some time ego an ac? count wfis given of the swindling of a man in Tennessee, named David Beatie, out of a large amount of back pay and bounty granted by a special Act of Con? gress. The swindle was on snoh a large scale that Deputy United States Marshar Johu Woods was instructed to investi? gate the matter and" bring" the guilty party to justice. The fatal result to himself is thus given by the Knoxville Chronicle, ot Friday! last: "WO learn from a gentleman JUBI from FentreBs County that something over a week ago Mr. Woods, in pursuance of bis instructions,' arrested the sheriff of the County, a man named Stromier, and another fellow, for complicity in the grab game. The arrest was made in a irnloon at Jimtown, and before' leaving, the sheriff bec?me displeased at tho language of the mitchel, and said: *If I was armed you would not dare to talk so t? me.' 'You shan't have that ex? cuse,' said the marshal, TU arm you,' add 'presented a pistol, holding the handle toward him. Before the sheriff could take hold of it, however, several of the bystanders, friends of the priso? ner, fired on Marshal Woods, several balls taking effect and killing him in? stantly. Ocr informant stated that the sheriff had left that part of the country, and had not been seen sinoo, cor was it known where he had gone." _THB GREAT BRIDGE IN NEW YORK. The Eaat Biver bridge, it is stated, is advanoing steadily, the great stone tower on the Brooklyn side, composed of gra? nite set in concrete and cement, having reached a height of 100 feet. The tower is not completely Bond, but has two empty spaces in the centre, thus effeot 3og a great Having in the coat without limvnishing its strength to any appre? ciable figure. The workmen, it ie stated, are laying one course of stone every three days, and eight courses are laid every mouth. The tower, when com? pleted, will be of uniform aize through? out'from tho base to the summit, and will-be nearly as high aa the spire of Trinity church. The work, it is assorted, has noVsAttlea* an-inch, and as the cuis? son' rests'ou'a bed of hard rook nod gra? vel, it ia believed that the foundationa canpot.be .moved*. Tho caisson for tho foundation of tho tower on the New York-aidp of JSuot river, it is stated, is completed,-and will soon be floated into portion.

THE LOBT' BOURBON DIADEM.-An old man who has resided by himself in Now Orleans for many years, and whoso singular dress attracted attention, died recently; and in his room, ou a tabla, near the body, was found a rich casket, set in mother of pearl and gold. Jewels flashed from the costly lid, and wreathed in tho dust of diamonds were engraved the "Lilies of France" in a coronet of gold. They opened the box and thora flashed on their eyes the Bourbon dia? dem. It was stolen the night of tho 16th of August, 1830, when Charles tho Tenth abdicated tue throne of France in favor of the Duke of Bordeaux. Un? derneath it was a manuscript, written in French. It contained only these words: "I am Oharette, the Vendean General. Maria of Savoy was to have been my wife. She was taken from me and given to the Comte d'Artois. I could have forgiven this, but he deserted me when moat I needed his help and assistance. I revenged myself and procured his overthrow, and nm happy since he died in exile." A "spirited widow" bas been making things quite lively at Wadesboro, N. C. She was put in jail for biting and scratching her mothor and sister; and one day last week a chango of cells be? coming neoessary, the magistrate, con? stable and jailor undertook to remove her. The magistrate retired, with an arm frightfully bitten, tho constable did the same, severely bruised by his head coming in coutaot with a bottle "defily slung" by Ibo charming widow, and of tho three tho jailer was the only ono that did not leavo hastily, a fearful kick from t' o "lively old girl" rendering him breath? less on the floor of the cell. What be? came of him is not stated; tho hist ac? count from the scene of tho row, was, that tho widow was practicing ou his prostrate form with a chisel. New Guinea, or Papua, tho island which a cable despatch announces to have been ceded by England to Holland, is, next to Australia, the largest in the Pacific Ocean. It is 1,200 miles in length, and it has an area of 200,000 square miles. It is divided from Australia by two small straits, one of them eighty miles in width. Little ia koown of the whole island. The Dutch have a few settle? ments on the cost, bat tho interior is al? most ontirely unknown to Europeans. The soil is rich in vegetable produots and luxuriant forests abound. The na? tives, who belong to the negro race, are few in number. The Dutch population numbers about 100,000, and the value of the trade of the island with Holland is estimated at 8600,000.

A FINANCIERING DARKEY.-Recently an express oar. waa robbed by a party of negroes io Alabe?la, aud .tho -manner in wbioh the spoils were divided by,tho robbers BIIOWS iq the case' of one of theta a ">ad instance of the depravity of the times, os well os misdirected intelligenc . Mono of the gfi?g could readf but ixttv'x the safe was broken open, Alfred Crosby tore off the cuds of some of tho packages, and sooD discovered'that tho largest contained the smallest bills, and con? sequently tba least mouoy.; There? lore, in making the division, Alfred pro? posed that two email packages should count os one large one, to which tho o thora readily assented; aud he then took eure to take his part in the small pack? ages, thus getting a double share of the booty. Alfred's friends insist that be has eminent qualifications for an office? holder. A late number of the Sheffield (Eng? land) Telegraph contains an account of a oorious discovery ot a ?mouldering fire that bas been made beneath a large fac? tory in that city. AB soon as the foot of the existence of the fire was made known, men were set to work to excavate the ground about the boiler, beneath which the fire was moat intense. The result of their labor was that a quantity of burning shale lind ooal was removed. The fire seemed to extend the whole length of thefuotory, beneath the earth's surface. The origin of the Ure is a mys? tery, and the Telegraph Bays thst it must have buen raging for a long period, pos? sibly yeura. Tho Illinois lyncher?, who hanged Martin Meru for brutally murdering his j sou, are known to the sheriff of tho County, who has been instructed by the Governor to arrest them, the latter pledging tho whole power of the State to assist him in the duty. If ever any une deserved lynching it wus Martin Mera, hy his own showing, and although re? spect for the Liw should be maintained, it ia hardly worth while to arrest 500 or 600 of the men who lynched him iu order to maintain it. Tho delays and quibbles of pettifogging lawyers in criminal eases, whero guilt is undoubted, do more to lower respect for the law than such crises of lynchiug are apt to do. --~*>- m The Tarboro (N.

On that day three ??giro children, two boys aud a girl, respective? ly aged abeu? eight, elevon and thirteen, were fishing on tho baoku of Fishing Crook, liy some mishap the boy missed his foot-hold aud fell in the water. His brother jumped in the creek to save tho boy, but, failing to do so. was followed for tho same purpose by the girl, the oldest one of the throo. She, too, was unable td effect a rescue, and in the at? tempt W?s di ow ned, together with the boys.

It seems that he was in the act of taking down a shot? gun, from its place on pegs over the door, when the hammer caught by some means, aud the gun was discharged. The entire load, which was of buck? shot, passed into his side near the heart, producing almost instant death. [ Wilmington (iv". C.) Journal.

Sunday was chosen as tho'dny for tho woik, because on that doy there would be uo inter? ference with transportation. A DEFAULTING POSTMASTER-The postmaster at Jacksonville, Flo., is said to be a defaulter for Si l,OOO. Ho is a son of Governor Reed, carpet-bagger. Enough said, except that one of Reed's olerks has been arrested for robbing the mail. Reed has been removed, and Cheney, another carpet-baggor, put in his place, which is said to be a triumph of the Osborn over the Reed faction. Tho death of "Gen.
