SKETCHES OP SOME OF THE DISTINGUISHED PER SONAGES. Paris (May 28) Correspondence of London Post. Looking at the extraordinary reunion of sove reigns and princes In Paris, attracted hither by tue Great Exhibition, it may not be Inoppor tune if I give you a few short memoranda and O'iseivations touching those illustrious person ages who are now, or recently were, in the French capita). Leopold II, King of the Belgians, Is thlrty tw o years Of age, and was crowned on the 10 oh it December. 1805. He is the giandson, on his m iltier'A side, of King Louis Philippe, and tnairled In 1853 an Archduchess of Austria, lln.netta Anne, daughter of the ArohuuKe J seph. The Queen Is t hirty-one, and has two daughters and a son. The sister of the King is Piluoess Charlotte, Emprets of Mtxloo; her brotbi,CountdtiFlanUres. baa Just married a pilncess of tue royal family of Prussia. He passed the first lew days at the Exhibition at Paris, aetlng as President of tue Koyal Belgian Commlsolou. The Count is known to have taken extraordinary interest lu the many marvels of the world's falr.and he may have aid with "Itonieo," on taking leave of it Int that a Joy, pant Joy. calls out on ine, . It were a gi Wt so soon to purl with thus. The King is said to bear a strong resemblance t0Tl Queen ol tbe Belgians adds to a noble de port mint the most affable and gracious air. hue la passionately fond of music and horse riding, lu both of which arts she exoels, and lo- no opportunity of practising them. Her Majesty an ived at 8 o'clock on Tuesday week, and at 3 she was on horseback Id the Champs EM sees and the Hole de Boulogne. George I, King of (ii eece, son of the King of Denmark, and brother-in-law of the Prluceof Wales, is only twenty-two yefs of age. He is a flue young man, of fair complexion, thin and somewhat pale; ot elegant deportment, aud Yvry distinguished manners. His Majesty has already visited Paris and the Exhibition, on his Way to Bt. Petersburg, where ho In about to marry a niece of the Emperor of Russia. Queen Maria of Portugal, daughter of Victor Etiuinual, took up her abode nt the Palais Itoya. Hiie Is twenty years of age, and married In 1(2 Kit g pom Lutsl, by whom she has two chil dren. Like the Queen of the Belgians, her skill as a horsewoman Is much praised, aud she is a bold and dexterous rider la the hunting field, ii ence her admirers have given her the appellation of "Queen Diana." Prince Oscar, who has frequently visited the Exhibition, Is the second son of King Oscar I, and the grandson of the Marshal of France, liernadotte, brotlier-ln-law of Joseph Homipirte, and King of Bweden la 1S18. Prince Oscar, brother of the retgnlne King, Charles XV, Is cousin to Napoleon ill, his mother havlnir been the daughter of Prince Eugene, uncle to tbe Emperor of the Ficnch. Prince Oscar is ttilrlv-elghl years old; he married In 1857 a Princess of Nassau, by whom he has had four children. He was here not only In the capacity of President of the Koyal Commissiou of the Exhibition, but as an arlent admirer and dill gent Inquirer Into the merits of everything most worthy ot note, accumulated from all the countries ol the world, In the Champ de Mars. Prince Oscar lately superintended the trial of two small and beautiful Swedish steamers, which make occasional trips with select parties to Kt. Cloud. The Prince was observed to wear three rib bons, one of which was that of the Legion of Honor, and attached to the other two was a military medal, aud a French raedtl awarded for distinguished services rendered in the saving of human lite. The latter especially attracted much curiosity, and, on Inquiries being made on the subject of one of the Prince's attendants, the Interrogator was politely in formed that lu 18G2. belug at Nice, tue Prlnoe's attention was attracted by the imminent dan ger of a noble French family In a carriage, tue horses of which were running away at full speed, and perfectly ungovernable. He threw himselfat the animals' heads, ud, after being dragged along by them for some distance, at length succeeded In stopping their career, and saved the lives of the party. FROM WASHINGTON THIS AFTERNOON. SPECIAL nSFATCHE3 TO KVENINO TELEGRAPH. Washington, June 11. Military Operations Against the Hostile Inttlaus. The Military Division of the Mississippi, In cluding the Indian Territory west of the Mis sissippi river, is under command of Lleutenant Ueneral Bherman, and the military operations against tbe hostile Indians are conducted under his directions, be reporting to General Giant, commanding all the military forces of the United Stales. Three Department Com manders, Generals Hancock, Augur, aud Terry, are acting in the field under command of Lieuienaut-General Sherman, who is also la the Held In person. All applications by Territorial authorities to raise troops, or for local military force, are referred by the War Department to General Sherman, in whom authority Is vested to de termine the necessities for troops, their num bers and equipment, with authority to take command of aud disband them immediately when the necet-Nlly for them ceases. This super vision and control Is given him as commander of the Military Divlbion, in order to confine the employment ot local troops to cases of actual necessity, aud to subject them to some responsi ble control. The local authorities of every Territory are urgent to raise troops, but tueir applications are in every instance sent to General Sherman for such action as he deems necessary and proper. Tue military difficulties of the situation are greatly enbanoed by the connicting views oi uiuian Agents ana traders, and the desire to have military forces, and consequent lurge military expenditures, in tbe remote territories, upon whicu there cau be no more efficient and prudent cheok than tue con trolling Judgment of General Sherman. The Burratt Case Its Present Prospect. The action of the prosecution yesterday In the Surratl case, in objecting to the mode of draw lug tbe Jury, Is looked upon as a desire to pro crusiinate the case, and perhaps to abandon it. The Burratt Trial To-day. Tbe trial of John H. Surratt, indicted for the murder of the late President Lincoln, was re sumed this morning lu the Criminal Court, Judge Fisher presiding. , The crowd in attendance was again very large. Among those in at tendance in the court room at an early hour were thiee or four ladles, who, however, soon disappeared. ' The Court was formally opened at 10 o'clock, and the numts of the Jurors were called. Mr. Bradley. Sr., said be did not suppose It neces sury to await the arrival of tue prl.ioner lo argue tue peutiltig motion, when the motion was submitted upon the purl of tbe piosecutlou, ytaterday, to quash the array ot the Dane!. Tbe defense were surprised, for It was tbe first tune such a motion was made la thin court. The particular form of tue motion did not Hit attract the attention ol the coumel, but upon looking at It since it appears entirely novel, and uo precedent can be found lor it in either JOngllsn or A ggerican practice. The object of tbe motion sbould be to present tacts whereby tbe Court may Inter wlietber or not tbe Jurors were properly summoned and empanelled, and It must therefor slate f-vcts, and not cuiiclunloijg ot law. JUe would read the inoilou aud point, out Us delects. IT. Urad ley read the motion as filed, and, con tinuing Ins remarks, said he denired to bave the facts, lie hud looked carefully through lbs Kugllsh presi dents and tlirougb the precedents oi this country, aud from them he concluded that tbe facts, upon which the prosecution rely must be set out In the motion, and eannol be supplied by an afndnvlt only, for an affidavit cannot he pleaded or be taken in issue on a demurrer. He bad do onjecllon to tbe prosecution completing the facts, but lu tbe present sliape it wai not admissible to Court. In support of his position, Mr. Bradley quoted lrom tbe lirst volume ot Arch bold's Criminal Practice. Do. Hi and 5(7. W bile Mr. ltradlev was speaking the prisoner was brought lu aud astdgned to a seal near his counsel, Mr. Pieirepout, lor the prosecution, conceded ths question for tbe Court was one ot fact, and the ouly question was how best to bring these facts before tbe Court. It was not necessary to set out ull the evi dence in order to raise a demurrer. The mode of getting at the facts should be the mode usual la the Court, hut be did not see what difference It could make whether the affidavit was taken for Mils mo tion or not. Mr. Uradleysald he did not suggest the affidavit bould e Jollied to the motion, but suould b incor porated in the motion Itielf, so that the Issue Could be Joined on the Nets Htled, Mr. 1'ieir-pont remarked that It did not seem to blm to make much dlllVreuce bow tbe fac.s were put lu, for it was admitted the Court wai to de-Id up ju tarts. Mr. Wilson, Assistant District Attorney, read from Arcblbold's Criminal 1'ractlce to show that lu draw ing tbe motion tbe lurm must set forth the matterof challenge with precision and certainly. It was lor the Court to decide w lie1 her this had beeu done. Mr. Bradley said if the proiecutlou would show how they could plead to the atlldavlt. the defense would b relieved. It was to him a novel proceeding to aver that certain things were done contrary to law, when the Tacts were not set out in the motion. The motion was then amended by iucorporutlog the lacts. Mr Bradley thereupon filed the following de murrer: 'l bs United Slates vs. John If. Surratt. In Crimi nal Court oi the District or Columbia, and thereupon the defendant says the said motion Is bad 1i law und In substance. 1 he facts stated do uot constitute any ground in law for acuaileugo of this array. The prosecution Jollied on the demurrer. M r. Merrick, lor the detente, proceeded to address the Conn In oppoel'ion lo the motion. Hnconteuded that If ibe uiollon was grauted. the same o'Jcllon would apply to the Orand Jury that h.Bf iund tbe bill of Indictment axalnst this accused, and If it ap plied to the Orand Jury, the defense might deem It advisable to withdraw the plea Cot "uot guilty, ' aud plead specially to tlie Indictment. Mr. I'lerrepont said he did uot understand a motion to be a pleading in the common acceptation of that term, but It was addressed to the sound discretion aud Judgment of tbeUourt and the facts may be brought forward one way as well as another. Mr. bradley Insisted It was a tact for trial. Mr. I'lerrepont contended It was a fact ouly for the Judgment of the Court, Judge Fisher, a fur examining the authorities re ferred to, decided that, la accoidauoe with precede its, tbe tacts aud not the law must be set out lu the motion. Mr. Bradley then suggested that the prosecution Incorporate lo the uiollou the facta upon which they rel y. Mr, I'lerrepont said he was quite willing to do so. Mr. Douglass, the City Heglsier, wished lo correct bis affidavit In one particular. He desired to add what had beeu omitted, thai tbe Jurors were drawn to the presence of the Clerk of the Court, himself, and the Clerks of the Ueosgetowo aud the Jvy C'vuits, From Agpinwall and Central America.

A GANG OF BURGLARS THIRTY-SIX H0UR8 IN A BONDED WAREHOUSE $11,000 WORTH OF GOODS CARRIED OFF. Some time during Saturday afternoon a gancr of burglars secreted themselves in the bouded waiebouse No. 395 Greenwich street, which la occupied by Messrs. Mer & Smith, who have two other bonded warehouses adjoinio.fr. the three being Nos. 393, 395 and 397, bat each one entirely separate from the others. As soon as the warehouses were closed lor the ntctht aud abandoned fey the employes, the thieves com menced act ve operations bv ripping open a large number of cases of silks, linen., velvets, and cloths, which they found on the second and third floors. Tney also reealcd themselves with the contents of a basket of champagne. None of these cases of Roods were carried off, however, owing to their Interior value, and because oue was a cuse ol ribbed silk of great value, but easily Identified, alter an extended search tbe eaug happened upon a case marked 4,A. T. Sieart & Co.," and it was found to consist ol a spleudid invoice of twenty-four piece9 ot black sldr, the market value being $4000, and tne thieves appropri ated the entire contents. They also opened another cose containing twenty-two pieces of velvet, belonging to Bcnkard fe Hutton, No. 144 Puare street, the value of which was $7000. All ol these goodf, together with fourteen oilier pieces ol velvet, name ot owner unknown, were then wrapped up in tbe inner easing of rice bags, the rice being scattered over the floor, and the bundles carried down stairs to the ground floor. The bmrglars then commenced operations tor their escape. No. 397 stands on the corner ot Beach street, and in the rear of the building is a small door leading into Beach street, which is fattened very insecurely by a single padlock and staple. In order to reach the Interior of No. 397 the burglars were compelled to tunnel through the sixteen-inch brick wall, which feat they performed successfully without attracting the attention of the police. It may be well to mention here tbat lour officers include the cor ners of Beach aud Greenwich streets in their respective posts, so that a confederate must have been posted outside the warehouses in order to give a signal to those at work inside. Oilicer White, of tbe Fiith Precinct, passed the warehouse at 1250 o'clock yesterday morn ing, and he tried tbe small door on Beach street, already described, finding it perfectly secure. At 110 o'clock he returned and dis covered the padlock broken ofl. and tbe door wide open. Further fearch resulted in the dis covery of fourteen piece6 tf velvet, but all of the other goods had been successfully carried off. A small 'jimmy" was lound near the door. Notice was then sent to the Station House, when tbe above details were developed. At No. 62 Beach street there were kept a Scotch terrier dog and her puppy, and on Sunday after noon tbe porter of the establishment went there to feed tbe animals, but could only find the puppy, which, having fed, he came away. Yesterday, when examining the plundered premises, the police discovered both these dogs strangled aud lyiag on oueof tbe floors ol No. 396. Why this was doue does not appear. It was also ascertained that after the burgl irs had tunnelled through the wall dividing No. 395 from 397, they were compelled to remove sixty eises ot glass before they could reacD the side door through which they had escaped. So cleanly was tbe entire burglary accomplished that tbe thieves carried oil 'all of their tools except the jimmy and a piece of eperm candle. Tbe burglary will be classed a.nong the most daring operations yet performed by the "cracks men" of this city, and it seems incredible that so much work could be accomplished In thirty six hours without the police being alarmed. The Fifth Ward has suffered severely ot late trom the successful achievements of the bur glars, and in no one instance does there seem to be any clue to the guilty parlies. In all pro bability the Police Commissioners will make an Investigation into the management of Captain Petty 's Precinct, for some one must be at fault in the matter. a. Y. Times. SENATORIAL EXCURSION PARTY. BFEECU OP SENATOR WADE. Lawrence. Kansas. June 10. Senator Wade delivered a significant Impromptu speech to day, in reply to calls from a crowd of citizens in front of tbe hotel where the excursionists dined. lie declared unequivocally in favor of female suffrage, reiterating views expressed in tbe Henate last spring. He declared that neither Johnson nor the devil could tempt Congress to desert the people; said that the Southerners now had the mildest terms offered them they ever would get; and tbat if they rejected them the screw would be driven another turn, and they would be compelled to yield. The Senator added that the shadow of another struggle was over us; tbat Congress, whiob bus done so much for the slave, cannot quietly regard the terrible distinction which exists between the laborer and employer. Pro perty is not fairly divided, and a more equal distribution must be wrought oat. If your dull heeds, be said, can't understand this, the women will, and canvassers upon the eve of an election will have to tell the laborers what they will do for them. Men should not be compelled to labor nntll life Is worn out, and being Is a ouise, nor cau this always be the ouse here, where every man is a capitalist to a certain extent. These inequalities are uot felt as they are In the Kust. Kvery man. then, who was subject ton capitalist ought to leave him, and' get two hours nearer suudown forthwith.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN DEW TORK MURDER AND SUICIDE IN A FABIIIONAHLB BOARDING-HOUSE, ETC. ETC. The inmates of the fashionable boarding house ot Mr. Bluticuard, No. 30 Knt Nine teenth street, near Broadway, were thrown into a fearful state of excitement lait evenng bv the dipcovprj ol a terrible tragedy which bad oc curred la their midst, aud which, until it was accidentally discovered, was not In the least suspected by those who were in the immediate vicinity of the scene. The victims of this traeedy are Allied &. King, a native of Massa chusetts, seed 24, and his wife, Mattle R. King, who is said to be a native of Virginia, of about the same age as her husband. These parties h'.ve been living at the boarding-house of Mr. Blanchard for over a year. Mrs. Kicg bad full board in the house, but King oDly slept tbere, but took his mesls out of the bouse. 1 bey appeared very affectionate together, and lived happily. King had been In tbe gas-fitting business In Grand street, but for feveral months past hud been out ot business and considerably straitened in circumstances, so much so that lie was considerably in arrears to Mrs. Blanchard for board, to the amo int, perhaps, of $0. This fact appeared to make King somewhat moody, but did not alter his manner towards his wile, whom he treated with invariable fondness. On Sunday Mrs. King was at home all day, and so was her husband, until it was ascertained that there was do coffee in the louse; where upon Kmg volunteered to go out and obtain some. This ho did, and iu a short time he returned, bringing with him a can full of coffee. He went out soon alter and remained out nearly all the afternoon, returning between 6 and 6 o'clock, while his wife was at dinner. The couple went into the psrlor, and in thpmenutimeMr. W. C. Btandon, a triend of King's who resides at the lievere House, called on them. They remained chatting together forsome minutes, and then all tbiee went to King's room. Mr. Branson re mained until about 9A o'clock that nlght.and as he was about to leave Kins gave him a sealed letter addressed to "C. H. Macy, Esq., Bherman House, No. 413 Broome street, city," which he re quested him to send through tbe post office to his cousin, Mr. Macy. This was the last seen either of King or of bis wife alive. Af er Bran don had departed, King returned to his room and was not ngafn seen alive. This is all tbat is known of what occurred in thatsmallrear bed room on the fourth floor of the bnarding-house, which constituted the temporary tomb of Mr. King and his wife. It was remarked yesterday morning that Mrs. King did not come down to break last as usual. Mis. Blauchard supposed that she was probably indisposed, and would lie down during tbe day. In the mnltifaiious duties devolving upon Mrs. Blanchard the absence of Mrs. King from tlie breakfast tuble passed trom her mind, and nothing more was thought about the Kinirs until 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the usual dinuer hour.when Sarah Taylor, a servant girl,employed in the house, was sent up to tbe room occupied by the Kings to summon Mrs.King tothe repast The girl found tbe door locked. She knocked repeatedly and could not obtain any response. This somewhat alarmed the domestic, who stooped down and looked through the key hole. The key was in the lock on the inside of tbe door. The girl, by means of the pass-key which she had left In her pos session, loiced out tbe key on the inside of the door, and then unlocked it. As she partially opened the door, a sicrht met her affrighted gaze which must have almost have frozen tbe blood iu ber veins, and the almost distracted girl tan shrieking down stalls and out into the street. Mrs. Blanchard and the inmates of tbe bouse, alarmed by the cries of the affrighted servant girl, rushed up sta'rs to the room, but rauted on tbe threshold, almost petrided with horror at the sad spectacle. None had the courage to enter the chamber of horror, until Officer Gerardus P. Beekmun, of the Twenty-ninth Precinct, who had Jseen summoned by the girl, and who came op stairs and entered the room with the usual nonchalance of a blue-coated and shielded guardian of tbe peace; but the stout heart of tbe policeman, hardened by contact with many scenes of suffering and woe, quailed with affright at tbe fearful spectacle which presented itself to his view. On the bed, in as natural position as though asleep. Mrs. King was lying. A pistol-shot wound in tbe left temple at once displayed the mode of her death. Her beautiful raven hair was matted with her blood, which had stained the snowy pillow on which she reposed in the arms of death. She must have been fust asleep when shot, and died without a struggle. She was in her robe de nutt, and lyine on her side, with her face to the wall, and was proba bly in a sweet slumber when visited by tue dread Angel ot Death. Lying partially aeros the bed, bis bead resting on the pillow, beside that of his wife, King was found, a pistol-shot wound in bis right temple, denoting the mauner of his death. In his right hand was grasped a sn all four-barrelled Sharp's repeater, with which he had terminated tbe existence of his wile and then destroyed himself. His death must have been instantaneous, nnd almost wisnout a struggle, as from his position it would appear that he had not moved from tbe position in which he had first fallen. He was also undressed, and seemed as though be had been on the point of going to bed when tbe insane idea to destroy both bis wlie and himself seized possession of him. It is not believed that his wife was aware of the intention of her husband, as the clothing which she bad divested herself of was all placed in remarkable order on a cbalr near the bed, while on the dressing table were placed in order several articles ot clean undercloth ing, which she doubtless intended to put on yesterday morning. When the officer entered the room he noticed a strong odor of chloro form, and, on making partial examination of Mis. King's corpse, a bunch ot cotton, which had evidently been saturated with chloroform, was found pressed close under her nostrils and over her mouth. It is therefore presumed that Mr. King placed the chloroform to his wife's mouth while she slept, and shot her while she was steeped in unconsciousness. In strange contrast to this scene of horror, a beautiful canary-bird, suspended In a cage in the room, sang meriily as soon as the room door was opened, and sent forth its glorious melody while the examination was being tnado. Officer Beekman, as soon as he had learned sufficient of the case, reported to Captain Speight, of the Twenty-ninth precinct, who pro ceeded to tbe house and placed bis officers in charge. Duting the evening, Mr. Micy. alludeJ to above as the cousin of King, called at tbe bouse and stated that he had Just received a letter which had led h1ra to coniecture tbe worst, and be was horror-struck on learning the truth. Tho, following is a copy of the letter wiltten by King to Mucy: New York, June 8. C ousin Howard: I am tired or lite. I have wronged you , hut forgive me. 1 stole your pistol and sold It aud bought another one. Brandon knows where It ws sold, but he thinks it was mine. He did uot know I stele lu Give my love to father and mother and Q )d bless you all. M ollis ever, A. M. KINU. Bury us both together, Ifoward. It Is the last re quest 1 make of you. Do, please. A.M. KING. Th6 letter was postmarked New York, June 10, and had evidently been posted by Mr. Bran don yebferdav mornlm?. The document was taken possession of by Captain Speight. Coro ner Wlldey will probably hold an inquest in the case to-day.

He fuitber states that King and fbe woman be lived with bud not been married, but bad cohabited together as man and wife for some years, and the inmates of the house always believed theut to have been married. But little I known of King's business or ante cedents. Ot the deceased woman still less is known. She had frequently stated to Mr. Blanchard that she was a native ol Virginia, but the police stateltrat her mother and sister resido in Brookhn. TUev further allege that slio was at one time a waiter girl at the Louvrs Concert Saloon, where King had formed her at quaintRiice. She was about twenty-lour years of age, and was a beautiful biunetto, with black eyes and let blnck hair. The room which was made the scene of this fearful tragedy is a small apartment on the fourth floor, in the rear of the bouse, and is fur nished plainly jet nearly, with a stained oak set of cottace furniture. Kine had preferred Hon account of its bing the cheapest. As soon as the details of the trasody became known in the neighborhood, an intense excite ment was occasioned, accompanied bv acraving to gaze with morbid curiosity upon the victims of this tearful occurrence. The podce, how ever refuted admittance to all but those whose official duties called them to the scene of the trapedy. The Inquest to-day may develop some further facts in respect to the antecedents ol King and his wile, or paramour, as tue case may be. N. Y. World. BILLIARD MATCH AT MONTREAL.
