Trie proposition to organize a subscription for the purpose of raising a statue to Voltaire ban given rise to a very sharp discussion in the Paris press, some of the journals opposing Ihe proposed measure in the strongest terms. The rays, an organ of the Honnparto dynasty, hi along article, says that Voltaire was a de lamer of the popular c lasses, speaking of them With the greatest contempt. An - a citizen, ho eulogized all the Ministers who succeeded fach other under Louis XV, and likewise all the King's mistresses, lie, in fact, laid his incense in turn at the feet of Fleiiry, Bamis, Richelieu, Maupeon, Choiseul, and Turgot. lie adulated the pure and virtuous Queen Maria Lecksniska, and almost in the same Ireath Madamo de Pompadour, and afterwards Madame Du Barry. It is true that among his Intimate acquaintances he made np for the syco phancy of his adulations 1y the abusive litterness of his mockery. A certain school Of casuists has Wen reproached with its doc trine of mental reservation; but what can be aid of Voltaire? For three years (17W, 17U0, iuk11701) he was in correspondence with King Stanislaus, who, wrote he to Marmontel, "has ecnt mo a letter of the kindest description," etc. "The King," he said to Thiriat, "has cent me his book. I enclose you my answer; see if it is not favorable." And nearly at the tame time, again communicating with Thiriat, lie treated King Stanislaus as ,a fool, getting lip silly books by the aid of his Secretary, an ex-Jesuit. As a patriot, ho was still worse. France was engaged in the unfortunate "Seven Years' War." At that time, so full of humilia tion and disasters for France, what was the game of Voltairo'f This one: Ho inflamed Choiseul against the King of Prussia. Tho King wrote a satire against the Minister, and the very lirst thing Voltaire slid was to show it to the latter. On the ether side, he swore to the King that he had never breathed a word concerning the mattor to any one, whilst at the same time lie advised Choiseul not to treat with the King. To the latter he wrote: "Your verses are charming; and if your Majesty has beaten your eiieinlc, they become still letter." Wo must no.t for get that the enemies alluded to are the French, those unfortunate victims of the ignorance of Court generals, named by the favor of the King's mistresses, heads of the army and Marshals of France. Is it really necessary to draw money from one's purse to glorify such reminiscences i The majority of the Parisian papers are of opinion that it is not necessary to honor such a person by a sort of national manifestation. .They say he was car ried to tho Pantheon; that surely is enough, if not too much. The Change In the Constitution. The Paris journals still continue their re marks on the late changes in the Constitution. Several of them, during the last few days, have lcen carrying on a rather animated discussion respecting the merits of the Ministers to whom the Knijieror has given or continued his con fidence, and those whom he might have chosen in preference. The public of France will have some difficulty in taking any interest in such a dispute. Nobody cares much whether the policy of the Emperor is defended before the Chambers by statesmen long in office, by friends of the second degree, who have passed into the first category, or by former adversa ries, suddenly touched by grace on the way to the Tuileries. ' In reality, as well as in theory, it will be the policy of the sovereign alone which they will come to defend before the Senators and the Deputies. We therefore believe that those discussions as to proper names, maintained by certain journals, are not worthy of the attention of any except the few men who find an amusement in conferring, withdrawing, maintaining, or regaining port folios. . The Oriental Uuettlou. In pernsing the European journals, one would suppose that war was on the point of breaking out. The European press teems with incorrect statements, forged facts, and false judgments. Because a portion of the Cretan population has risen in insurrection, the conclusion is jumped at that Turkey in Europe is threatened with a general conflagra tion. If the (i reeks were more numerous, the bursting forth of this lire might alarm tho Porte; but as they are in a minority, a rising in Thessaly and Epirus could only be disastrous to the populations of those two provinces. People seem to have forgotten that there are letween the Black Sea and the Adriatic h'ix millions of Bulgarians, irreconcilable enemies of tho Greeks and devoted subjects of the Ottoman Empire. Unless a foreign power should declare war against the Sultan, Turkey lias nothing to fear; and if an attack should b.t made from without, the allies of the lWte would do what they have already done. A thousand fallacious rumors are again in circu lation respecting the insurrection in Cundia. , Rome. Our correspondent writes us that a report was current in that city of the intention of the Pontifical Government to effect reforms, partly in conformity with the Emperor Napoleon' Well-known letter to General Ney. The first of these measures is said to be thp reor ganization of a civil guard, and the second the ' formation of a secular Ministry. The same advices state that those reforms have been asked for from the Pope by tho chief Roman aristocracy, headed by Frineu M.irk Antony, Borgliese. . . . '. The Imperial Library. The Imperial Library in Paris has just re THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAM. PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 18C7. ceived several important donations from various hands. Tho Emperor has presented it with the original MS. of Humlwddt's "Cosmos;" The Empress has sent a Hebrew Old Testa ment, written on veil urn, as stated some time ago; from the Sock'tfi Asiatique tho Library has received 324 MSS. in Carnool, written on palm leaves; a manuscript in the langnageof Thibet; a Sanscrit manuscript in the Dacanagarl char acters; and valuable papers, once the property of M. Ariel, a French agent in the East Indies; l)r. Clot-Bey has sent ten manuscripts in Arabic and Turkish, and twenty-three others in Arabic alone. THE FASHIONS. The Kcceptlon at the TuUerlee and Dresses Worn at Court A Novelty or Nothing Coatiime of the Empress The Prevailing Colors New Style of Hats Cut of Sleeves Diamonds, Fea thers, and Bands, Ktc. Paris, February 1. The event of the week is the second reception at the Tuileries. Three thousand Invitations were given out, ana tne three thousand attended, in the richest toilets. All tho gentlemen wore tight silk stockings, ending in a buckled shoe. Their leggings, or culottes, are made ot white cloth, and the tans and collars of their coats worked with gold. The shade of the coat is blue. The enumeration of the ladies' dresses would be but a repetition of the fashions I have described since the opening of the sea son. J he great feature was satin, w hich is made ii 'oilman, with the most extravagant lengths of tram. A little oval Iront piece, under the waistband, not larger than the width of two hands, find which I should call an apron, if it were larne enough, is the great novelty. No one knows what it is meant for, nor its origin; no one says it is pretty, hut an call it ckV, and that is supposed to mean some thing enviable in our degenerate idiom. There were oceans of snowy white organdies worked with floss silk and gold; plenty of plain tulles covered with white ruche and vaporous under skirts, entirely without any other trimming beyond pearl-head lace. All were Hat in front, and there were velvet and satin bodies with basques cut in one, very low, either round or square. The low chemisette is pleated and edged with an insertion and valenciennes. As 1 have frequently said, sleeves are mere bands a puff, or anything that will trim round an arm-hole. A pretty dress I did ad mire, because it contrasted with the gorgeous glitter around me. It was made of tarlatan, cut in three Hat skirts, which were se,wn in the waist like flounces in the old school. The bot tom of each was scolloped round wide and lined with pink tarlatan, wliich gave the dress a rosy appearance. The back of the skirt was ornamented only with a long sash, which widened gradually till it became a train at the bottom. Both flounces and sash were bor dered with' slightly twisted pink and white. The sleeves were l In juice like wings. The head dress was a cordon of apple blossoms. Z. The Empress wore a yellow satin robe, trimmed with bouillons of tulle, under which shone forth diamonds in flowers. She had a diadem of the same in her hair. The Impe rial family entered the Salle des Marechaux at nine o'clock, and advanced straight to the throne chairs, between rows of standing and courtesying guests. To the right of the Em press there sat Prince Napoleon, to the left of the Emperor Princess Mathilda. The ladies of the palace, ambassadresses, etc., took seats around their Majesties, all according to rank and station. At twelve they rose anil walked through the different reception rooms, after which they entered the Galerie de Diane and supped. , After supper they retired, but the ba'.l was kept up till three in the morning. Emeralds are the favorite jewels this season; green silk is also in great demand. The great idea is to wear a larger quantity of bead and jet embroidery around waistbands on after noon dresses; some end in very long glass bead fringe. Black poult de soie waistbands with square basquincs, Vandykes, and folly points are fanciful trimmings. i Never was foulard so much sought after as it is now, and no fashion can be more welcome. It is as pretty as satin, and not half so expen sive; it is made in the loveliest shades, of which the following are the prettiest at night: Prim rose, wallflower, Parme violet, roseleaf, and pea-green. When cleaned they look like new, when creased they are ironed, when stained they can be washed. j Feathers and feather bauds are and will be fashionable for some time to come. Striped silks are trimmed with plaited ribboivA tablier, and round the bottom; crape plaits are much worn round bonnets and left to1 hang entwined with flowers. I cannot admire them. Our spring bonnets will either be very Hat or all "Bolivar" shape high up in the air, like coal scuttles, and Hat behind. The prettiest hat will be Ceres, a kind of Watteau, trimmed with bunches of brown berries in a garland of frosted leaves, tied on with maize or straw-colored strings. Bonnet strings will be narrow. THE SUNDAY CAR QUESTION. To the Editor of The Evening Telegraph: Sir: As you have opened your columns to an earnest opponent of Sunday car travel (" Y.", in your issue of 14th inst.), the presumption is that a brief note, taking a different view, will be as courteously received, particularly as the writer claims all that " W." can, hrthe interest of public morals and good order. At the outset, Mr. Editor, your correspond ent would most vigorously protest against "W.'s" assumption, that those who would use the cars on Sunday are either foreigners, or whisky drinkers to a greater extent than on other days; indeed, the reverse can easily lie proven by persons who habitually used them when they did run on Sundays, or by application to the drivers and conductors not over-willing witnesses, certainly. The; reason for this "W." himself gives, unintention ally, when he speaks of the number of drink ing establishments throughout tho city. It doesn't look reasonable that men should pay to ride a long distance to the suburbs for tho privilege of getting intoxicated, when in tho very heart of the city one can throw a stone from ahno-t any doorstep, and break the windows of a bar-room in full swing, tho Sabbath though it may be. Had W." noticed', as the subsi iilier has, th proportion of women and children chiefly, it iH granted, of the 'poorer classes who pattonizud the cars on pleasant Sunday, he would m at once tho fallacy of his poHtlon. Generally speaking, it is not the men who carous ail( f,,,t drunk that ned them ; and it is doubted if a single instance of l"" 'M" " " mentioned, chargeable to the ii. jif4 i i him cars on Sundays, thai might net have occurred had they not been. Indeed, the use made of cars directly to the advantage of religion will recur to every one who has ever attended pervice at I?eeclier's or Cuyler's churches in Brooklyn, or Chapin'g or Tyng's in New York. Ask the members, or, if "W." prefers, the pastors themselves of these churches, if they would alolish car run ning on Sundays, and then consider how very much more extended is our own city than either. All people have a choice of churches, if they are churci members at all, and if there exists convenient and cheap communication by their doors, they have no excuse for remain ing at home during service, Ixj they ever so far off, or the weather ever so inclement. Of course, Mr. Editor, speaking in behalf of the great middle class of the community, there is no argument here for those who can afford to live where they please, and are able to main tain an establishment independent of their neighbors. These points were suggested by the tender solicitude "W." expresses for the morals of the community. Touching the right of the people, to decide the whole question by ballot, is where ho niost wounds the pride and manhood of our citizens. A purelyjlocal matter, the Legislature would have no right to refuse to listen to their overwhelming verdict. With intelligence enough to vote right on political matters, they can as safely be trusted to decide questions affecting either their convenience or morals. What do men, who, many of them, until they were sent to llarrisburg, never saw a town larger than their county seat, know of the needs of the second city in the Union? And what kind of an argument is it, that indivi duals may be enriched by legislation that affects the welfare of all? Suppose the general law of the State is in the way; if so, let the voice of the city be heard by the Legislature, and if their local necessities clash against Puritanic laws, let them not submit without at least right sturdy protests. Asa rule, those who distrust the people are not the ones to legislate for them, or to pass on what is for their good; and if the citizens of Philadelphia should decide in favor of their streets being used for their own accommodation on Sundays s well as week days, tho power should not exist that gainsays them. If "W." remembers that in an election ,all citizens are privileged to vote who have paid their taxes, the extent of his slander of their good name is seen when he says that "Should a vote be ordered in this city, it would be decided by tho vicious and depraved." No less is it an insult by the Legislature to submit the matter to the Committee on Vice and Immorality, for the question is one raised as much in the interest of intelligence and progressive Christianity, and agitated as much by those having the public weal at heart, as by the troublesome foreigners and brewers that seem so to haunt the mind of "W.;" and though opposed now by all the eloquence and power of narrow-minded sec tarianism, not to mention the pnrses of livery stable keepers, Sunday car travel will continue to be a popular necessity; and although de clared unlawful, through a legal technicality, the time must come w hen it cannot be said with so much truth of Philadelphia,' that "The day is sacred, but man is vile" audit will as surely come as some other innovations that the Church has gone out of its way to oppose.
