Of Toulouse me not the only per-ons wlio have
(iifk-ied bv the proceedings iusiiiuted niraiiist
that, join nil! which I mentioned .yesterday, fne
l'rocurcur Imperial, or Crown Prosecutor, of
Touloue hns s nt In his rcMgiittion. Why he
isoblieed to do so his own let ! io the journal
in qutsllon and to his immediate superior, tlie
Pr-ocureur-Gincriil, will luliy explain. To the
Emancipation he says:
Mr: The Keeper of the Seals (Minister of
Justice) lias accepted my resignation as Pro
cureur Imperial of Joulouse. I aui the victim
of my leniency towards the press. My cause la
our own, and I ask you to make known to my
lellow-citizeus the circumstances that have led
me to adopt that resolution. The subjoined
letter, which I address to the ProcurcurUuucral,
haves no doubt on the subject:
M. lo I'rccureur-ticueral 1 have th lionor
to thank jou lor bavins; commuuicated to me
the frcdi reproaches addressed to me by the
Keeper of the Seals, and I pray you to excuse
the trouble 1 occasion jou at this moment. It
appears from tho letter of the Keeper of the
Seals, dated the 30tb of Decern bet Kirst, that
hi my address, pronounced on tue 2-tth against
the Emancipation, 1 desired to commit you to
the singular engagement I am iid to have
taken to accept the- indulgence of the tribunal.
1 never uttered a word of the kind, and this
proves to nie what in poiulot tact I already
knew tbttt the persons who are chained with
walchinc; me duiin the proceedings in the
court and with repeating my words have been
ill selected. You inform me, second, that the
Keeper of the Seals does not thin be can any
longer tolerate my addresses as public prose
cutor, on the ground of their being too weak as
regards the press.
Now, to uddress a court under the supervision
Of a secret police anu to adopt conclusions im
poeed beforehand by the Keeper ot the Seals
are two tinners which, lor my part, I caunot
accept: and therefore I pray jou., M. le Procu-reur-Oemral,
to be so eood a-, to place my
resignation as Procureur Imperial of Toulouse
in the hands ot the Keeper of the Seals. Tne
resignation I offer is not a voluntary act. It is
forced upon me by the unjust and otTensive
rfLroacles which have been lavished upon me
fqr tome time past tni my altitude towards the
pres;and it is a real disgrace I am subjected to
at this moment for my desire to serve the
Emperor with the moderation aud dignity
which the Keeper of the heals himself recom
mended to us in hl9 circular of tue 1th of June,
18C8. I remain respectfully yours,

The lirst ball for the preseut year at the
Tuileries, the night of the 4th instant, was
exceedingly brilliant. Thy arrivals began at
nine, and upwards of 3000 persons were present.
The splendid toilets of the la ties, the rich
costumes of the marshals, mini-iters, ambassa
dors, and hlph ollic'ul personaues and a great
variety ot foreliru uniforms, produced a mamii
' icent coup 6'ail. At ten o'clock, their Majenle
entered the Sulle cits .Murecbaux, accompanied
by the Princesses MathiMc and Julia and
Charlotte Bonapurte, and attended
by the dignitaries of the Court.
The Empress wore a dives of exceedingly
thin white silk, embroidered with flowers iu
slver and trimmed with lace to match. Aiguil
le: of- brilliants were arranpe.l ou the shoulders,
nd her Majesty wore mapiiiactnt diamonds ou

wests and seemed in hisrh spirits. At haif-pat
Jl supper was announced, aud their Majesties
proceeded to fie Galerie d'Apollon, accom-

withdrew at a quarter pat twelve, but dancing

Athens Correspondence of the London Times.
The news that reached Athens yesterday from
Crete makes delay dangerous. The lust dying
words of tt:e insurrection have lvnched Athens
in the form of Petropoulakes' tMititulatton. A
thousand Spartans are ou their way home,
borne 011 their shieMs.to Ureece iu good health,
at the expense of the Turks. Even the Central
Com nilitee must now tiive up telling the world
every Tuesday morning that the insurrection is
at the height ot prosperity. Disgrace picced"l
disaster. Last week the correspondence from
Crete mentioned the desertion ot one of the
biieand chiefs sent by'.the committees with a
scanty supply of money and libeial promises of
wealth to be won from the (ircek Mussulmaus.
The Tuiks sent this patriot to Cunea with his
band ol 40 followers, and while there ho boasted
that he would revenge himself tor the manner
in which he had been deceived by the Greek
(iovernment, for ho was on lib way to Acrna
ula to resume his old prolcssion. In my letter
of the 17th instant, I mentioned that the Eiiosis
had lauded Leouidas Petropoulakes with 000
men in the province of Mylopotamo nud the old
colonel with aou near Hierapetra. Nine hundred
(spartan, with only live days' provisions,
foreboded tearful lamine to the districts they
entered. The dying embers of an unsuccessful
revolt were not likely to bo fanned into a Haune
by such a hunry expedition. Tho Ottoman
troops prevented their occupying any
place where they could find supplies, the
Christians tied before them as well as
the Mussulmans, aud they were driven
from one position to another, prevented from
yetting into the recesses ol mount Ida, an I
chased ulout! the rueue I ridge of Aahio Vasili
until they fled In despair to the inaccessible
strongholds ot Sphakia. The Snhakiots could
give them no provisions, and the Ottoman troops
surrounded them in what was ouce called the
impregnable camp of Askjpho, where, cut oil
from the sea, they laid down their aims. The
tiovernor-tieneral of Crete thought he could
hiive no better nreachers of neace aud no truer
expouents of the real state of ihincs iu tho island
than these Spartans; so he embarked them im
mediate!? ou board a iine-oi-naiiie snip, auu
llobart Pacha sent yesterday to ask where Mr.
Uulgares wishes his voliiweers to be landed.
The Prime Minister, not wishing them, under
these altered circumstances, to parade the streets
of Alliens, Is rather embarrassed to find a fit
manner of disposing ol this new clas of emi
grauts fiom Crete.

Pierce:
I leprct having to record an atrocious attempt
at assassination in lots jiiiuerio peaceaoie
locality. On last night about mx o'cioct, as Mr,
William U. Pierce, ot Clouescowan, was return
inehnmc from Trim, where he had been in
attendance at the Quarter Sessions, and when he
was withiu a shott distance ot ins owu nouse.
about a mile and a half from liallivor, he passed
two men ou the road, who went one on each
side ot the cig he was driving. Immediately
atter he passed by them two bhots were tired at
him in quick succession, one of them taklug
etlfct in his left arm, through which three slugs
or bullets passed near the shoulder, not breaking
the bone, however, His breast also was grazed
bv snme of the shot. Mr. Pierce had with him
In the gig at the time his nephew, a boy about
twelve years old, who sal in tue iroui seax wiiu
him, and a farmer unnied Andrew Keetc, ouc
one of Mr. Pierce's tenants, who sat behind.
Thp tiiirht was nicttv dark at the time, and the.
would be murdereis got clear away. Mr. Pierce
was brought into his own house aud Dr. Nolan,
of Athbov, was 6ent for, and dressed the
wounds, which are not of a very dangerous
nature, iur. pierce naa a very narrow escape.
As the meu betore separating ou the road
walked in front of the horse, the latter was at
the time gemg at an easy pace. The Haiti vor
constabulary, under Constable O'Dunnell,
bavini' been informed of the occurrence, pro
ceeded at once to the place, where the resident
magistrate (t. J. liauon. Jo., V. Li ), f . at.
Clair Kuthven aud Murphy, Esqs., sub-

investigate the matter. No arrests have up to
the present time been made.

Lui loipi itaita iu: J i mune.
Like a true-blue Yankee, we answer the above
Interrogatory propounded by Mr. (ircelej, by
asking, "What rottenness, cither in Cougress or
at Albany, was ever revealed that (Jreeiey was
not implicated iiT' Take the revelations of the
Investigatma .Committee on "Tlie Tariff and
Wool Question." A thousand dollars was traced
to the pocketbook of one Horace tJrce ley, which,
he has been endeavoring to explain away for the
lafct lilteen years,- but which he has so muddled
on every occasion as to leave tho iinpresssioii
that he wns somewhat embarrassed. We do not
charge that Mr. ("reeley win corrupted; we only
show that he was "implicate J" in lotteutiosi at
Washingtcu.
Mr. Greeley has been charged with having
contributed mouey to corrupt members ot t'ou
giess to tecuie tne election of a (Speaker. Nuv
we do not Itli.ve he evrr contributed a dollar,
but nevertmless he is "implicated."
Mr. Greeley nus been charged witn knowing
tLe fact ihai money was u?ed io bribe mcuibois
ot the Legislature nine years ago io voic for him
for United States Senator. We do kuow that a
ring of ratcals In the Leeislature, who the
Jrttjiine a year betore denounced as "the most
rorrupttcounPrils out of the Suite Prison," were
secured to voto for him iu caucus for United
States Senator. Of courso Mr. -reeley kne
nolhli-g about money being used, as ju-t ab iut
that time he lound it couvt uicnt to leave for tue
West, tearing that something might leak out.
Here ugnin m uuothcr mstaucc where un inno
cent man b "implicated" in a dirty ob.
These very same ui?cals that tho Tribune de
nounctd us venal became the most rampant
radicals and the active tools of Mr. Greeley, and
the vilest calumniator, of Messrs, Weed and
Seward. Mr. Greeley has ever since cuddled
under the 6ame dirty bed-clothes with these
venal rascals. Here is a case where there are
strong grounds for "implication."
It has beeu repeatedly stated that ttew
York Central Hailroad, the monster that his
done more to demoralize legislation than all
other mouBters, has bad Mr. Greeley's service to
aid them on all occasions, the notorious aeent
ot the late Dean Uichmood being the eo--b Hweeu
and negotiator. We do not say Mr. Greeley
received pay for his services, we ouly say ho is
"implicated' lu ro'.tenness at Albany.
Mr. Greeley went to Albany last winter in the
andcroilt interest, ns a lobby agent to deleat
Van
the to called Erie Railroad Hill. Mr. Greeley
was not very successful. It was Intimated by
some of the Western pipers that he was there
for pay. This may be Blunder; still he is "Im
plicated." There are persons who believe Mr. .Greeley
base enough to have so imposed upou Marshall
O. Hobcits as to make hi in a candidate for
United States H'.natcr, lu order tnat Mr.
ltoberts' money might be used to corrupt
members of the Legislature, nnd deleat Sir.
Morgau; and that, as soon as Mr. Roberts dis
covered the object of Greeley and other trieuds
of Fenton, he gave tho crew "a cold shake,''
aiul left Albany in a hurry. Now, these suspi
cion" may be unloumled; s;i!l (Jreeiey Is "impli
cated" l.rve rthelcs notwithstanding.
In conclusion, Mr. Greeley may continue to
proclaim "I am holier than thou." lie may
putter aud swagaer, rave aud sweur. and spit
through his teeth "liar" and "villain." He may
coon humbugging the unsophisticated that he
is au hr.nest man and a political saint, bat he

DIVORCES.
The I'roccNs of IHMtiiitliift' In tlie IVesI,
A correspondent of the Chicago Advance in
discussing the question of divorce and Us evil
results, claims that if the ab lity to ag'un marry
was removed, Hd a disability nindc peimuneut
as to both, there would bo very fciv divorces,
lie adds:
Let us examine for one moment the manner
in which the law ( perates. Mr. A. sues lor a
divorce. Mrs. A. doe not appear, default Is
entered against her, the case is sworn through,
and both parties are turned loose upon society,
with no better reason existing In many cases
than "cold Icet," or a desire which is expressed
In Drydcn's response to his wife, when she
wished that she was a book, so that she
might enjoy more of his company; "Or bo
an uimarac, that I cau change you every
year." The following case lately came under
my observation: A young man married, and
residing in ouesectiou ot the country, removed
to another, leaving his wife behind bun. Wnile
away he proposed to a young lady, aud was by
her accepted, and the marriage day announced.
He returned to his wife, spent a few weeks with
her, and tenderly baoe her adieu, sought the
house ot his expectant bride, and married her.
A few weeks alter the marriage he ootalued a
divorce from his absent wife, which, beiuir dis
covered by the newly -made one, was made tlie
occasion of a new matriaie oereiuouy, alter
which the now repudiated busbaud weut to the
home of his divorced wile, who, ignorant of his
conduct, still lives with hl n, while, the other
sontrht her redress in a court of equity.
I think lhear somclttwyers say that that could
have beeu remedied by personal service of the
notice. A friend of miuo relates tho following
instance as illus'rative of the lrau-ls which may
be practised in this precaution, even. A poor.
Ignorant girl uniortunately married to a scoun
drel, was served with a notice informing her
that nor husband would apply for a divorce tor
adultery the word adultery was "thumbed" in
tbe reading. Too ignorant to demand a copy
ot the notice, or to seek leg tl counsel, she asked
her husband what it meant, and rested satistied
with his assurance that it was nothiug dishono
rable to her any bow, uutil he ordered her to
leave his house, assuring her that she was no
longer his wife. "A mother, but not a wife,"
means something not only to tbe ruined woman,
but to the divorced one also. Divorce la s are
a bid to perjury, and a constant oiler to both
parties that they cau marry again at pleasure,
but with a deal more of "red tape" tlnm at
hist. There are not many instances of divorce
in which the plaintiff or defendant have not
found out that they could marry happier, and
are only waiting for a decree of court to do so.
A caso somewhat notorious ii reported as
lollows: A young man married a young woman,
and after resldinir with her some time con
cluded that he had made a mistake, aud pro
posed another marriage. Having means, he
sent his wife away ou a visit, aud while, she
was pone obtained a divorce. She cime back,
only to rind him the husbaud of another. Oh !
what trivial caus?s are alleged for the dissolu
tion of an institution ordained by the Almighty
as the first important event alter the creation !

This morning: at 10 o'cloctt Coroner Daniels,
silting In his o tiled at Fifib aud Chtsuul streets,
held an investigation Into tne causes t the
death of the man who was found In the debris
of the tire In Caldwell &. Co. 'a stole, at Ninth
and Cuetmut streets.
The following testimony was elicited:
William Hartley ailirmed Live No. 800
Locust street; bad turned into Ninth street
In iu C'lieKnut on the nlglit of the tire; and ti id
gone half the distance ot the square wnea X saw
bteam. about three feul above tue pavement; it
caused me to quicken ray steps, aud Just as I
reached hansom street the explosion occurred,
and was followed by a dense cloud of smoke;
couldn't tell from which building the smoke
came; the flames followed; called lire, and s;iw
two officers hurrying up; Caldwell's building
was almost Immediately wrapped In tUium;
the sound of the explosion was a "thudding"
sound; 1 beard tbe crash or the glass; the ap
pearance of steam which i saw was creeping
around the comCrof Sausom street: I heard but
one report.
James Nolen sworn About twenty minutes
after 12p'elock on tbe nlaht in question I left
the corner of Fifth and Chesnut streets; went
to several plaous and Anally reached the corner
of Ninth and Chesnut streets; heard an explo
sion; taw what looked like mist; the Caldwell
building was soon wrapped in Uames; the report
was a sharp one; saw the mist or dust arising
from under the iron shutters which protect the
store in front; ran to the rear and saw tbe Ore;
the tire at the rear appeared to go from the first
floor upwards; beard two distinct reports; beard
the break leg of glass; the explosion, was like
the report of a pistol or the bursting of air from
some tight vessel; It wan very loud; 1 beard It
at Llgbth and Chesnut streets; the sound was
not like tbe sndden escape or setting free of
Sheriff Peter Lylo sworn Was at Ninth and
Sansnm street after 12 o'efock on the nlgUt -of
the fire; was in Donohne's saloon, at tbe south
west corner of the streets named; heard a he tyy
noise; saw the building speedily clothed lu
llames; the heat was Intense; the glass In the
windows of Caldwell's store was rneltlug and
running down; saw no persons in the street;
tne sound was long aud heavy; It was like the
falliDgot an Inside wall; I ran to the door of
the saloon and saw the fire; the light attracted
our bttentton, not the noise; saw no persons
leave the building; the tire seemed to me to be
all on the first floor; the first story was one
mass of Ore; one of tho Iron shut ters which eu
close the secoiid-story windows ot Caldwell's
store was evidently unbarred, for a fireman
opened it with comparatlveease to putastream
of water through, and neither the bar nor the
staples were broken; the sound 1 heard was
like ine filling of some neavy mass.
Police OUlcer Gillespie sworn Left thest
tion house at 12 o'clock and walked slowly to
Ninth and Chesnut streets; heard n cram llko
tne blowing of a safe; thought, too, that timbers
were falling, ami jumped into a doorway to
protect myself; rau out again and saw ihe fire;
sprang my rattle; saw three men at Ninth and
Chesnut streets; the report was a heavy, dull
one; I heard something like tbe hissing of
Bleam;'rau at once to Sunsom street; the tire
was terrible; it rose up from t he first fl or, aud
the flumes Issued between the iron slat of the
portcullis or shutters; tbe explosion seemed to
me like steam blowing off; the report was the
llrat thing which startled me; did not smell
anything like smoke before; the lire at lirst
ws unusually brisjht, like tho burning tf gi,
Police Oillcer Little sworn Passed tne rear of
the building about twenty-five minutes after
12 o'clork; ex iinined t -:e doors nud everything
was then alt right: went away on my baat:
when returning I had reached Caldwell's old
store beard a report like the firing off of a
laige pistol; beard a second report, aud I think
a third oue ; ran down Ninth hi reel and saw the
rear uf the place one sheet of flame; gave the
alnrm; procured an axe and broke my way
through the metal door; got Inside of the Inner
door also, but was then driven back by the
smoke; called npon the parties In the building
to alarm them; other eflorts were made to get
iu by other persons, but they all failed; myself
and other otllcei s kept the crowd back; per
ceived no unusual odor or smell; tirst heard tbe
report about twenty minutes of I o'clock; In
lilteen minutes from that lime had the door
broken open; when I first passed the rear of the
premises saw no indications of fire, nor smelt
any smoke; the fire appeared to come from the
back part of the store.
Joseph Roberta sworn Am private watou
man on Chesnut street; was standing on Ches
nut street, between Ninth and Tenth; hoard
the report; sprang my rattle; hurried to the
place, and saw the tire; it was Intense; K ap
peared lo rise up from tue cellar; sent hackmen
for the parties who occupied the buildings In
the block; in Orne's storo the plaster of the
celling had fallen oil' for home tnirty or forty
feet; the report was a dead, heavy one. like
ihe sound of a cannon; am positive that the
names came np from the basement.
Waiter Long sworn Am backman at tho cor
ner of Ninth and Chesnut streets; was stand
ing there at the time of the explosion; saw an
appearance of steam before the explojlou;
tnought the people lis tlie building were blow
ing oil steam; then heard the report a sort of
ctasn; nearu nut one; tnougut it was a uollor
blown up; look my team away and alarmed the
firemen.
John Madden sworn Corroborated the testi
mony qf the preceding witnesa.
Fred. A. Davis sworu Am cashier for Mr.
Caldwell; slept in the building; slept In the frout
second story-room; went to bed about half-past
II o'clock; was awakened by a sudden sound;
sprang from bed; beard the crashing of glass,
ana what appeared to bo falling timbers;
Mr. llagan was with me; ran from tho
room upon tbe gallery, lor the purpose
of Investigating the cause of the explosion;
groped my way far hack into the building
towards Hansom street; tbe walls I touched, iu
some places, were so hot ns to blister my hands;
t he siuofte was suffocating; six persons slept in
the building; Mr. Hagnu and myself slept In the
same room; I missed him about the vicinity
of the sky light 15 feet from our roam; raissled
him in the dense smoke; asked for him
he answered he asked me to give
him my hand; couldn't find him;
don't know whether the recovered body la
Hasan's or not; two men out of the six were
mfsstng; the smoke bad no unusual smell: it
was very uense; the report was heavy like
roaring wind; I finally found my way back to
rny room, and escaped through ihe front win
dow; Pouik slept In the counting-room on the
back tart oflbe first floor; he could only get out
through the Iron door; think the smoke was so
dense as to at once sn (locate Mr. Poulk; 1 got
down stairs Into the smoke; going buck
I Kuggered; waH nearly suffocated; tue wind
rushed into our room like a tornado; wheu I
III st got out ot bed smelt nothing unusual; on
leaving toy room, together witn Hagan, en
countered the volume uf smoke; always keep a
MKht burning in my room; wheu awakened by
the explosion; my gas was burning; smelt
noticing like escaped gas before going to bed;
wns In the building from 8 o'clock.
Charles 11. Gillespie sworn I found the re
covered body; am a member of the Ph-eulx
Hose Company; was lu the building, together
Willi some other of our members, searchiug for
the bodies; went into tbe building for that pur
pose; while looking arouud, came upon a body
towards the front of the store, rather near tne
wall; it seemed like the body of a small man;
Hasan was a small man; the boiy was burnt to
a rrlsp; had it picked out and conveyed away.
William E. A. Bird sworn Was sitting at ihe
America Hose house; it was about twenty mlu
utes of 1 o'clock; a policeman came and gave
the alarm; ran the carriage out; when we
reached the place the flames were reaching up
from the basement and the first lloor; the stea
diness of the flames leads me to believe that
gaseous matter was burning; the volume of
flame was immense; there had evidently beeu
an explosion; there was not sufficient cotubustl
ble matter at the locality of ihe fire when it
first broke out to support the flame which ex
isted; Ihe heat was intense; think if the gas had
been promptly turned olf ihe violence of the
fire might have beeu met and rapidly abated
have bad a great deal of experience as afire!
man.
J ames Andrews sworn A m a member of the
firm of Andrews, Harrison & Co.; planed a heat
ing apparatus iu Caldwell's store; for heating
private buildings and other places we use liar
rlson's boiler; ou this boiler the satety-valve
blows oil- steam at eight pounds; the boiler is
Always under control; when examined the
boiler was found uninjured; steam Is not raised
In ihein above ten pounds; the boiler oanstand
much more; had one of tne balls
b?en exploded the fire would have been,
put out; in my experience there is no explosion
of the boiler; the balls can be broken, but the
boiler cannot explode; many experiments
have been made; the water In Caldwell's
boiler was found niter the fire at the propor
height; heat, la oonveyed throughout the build
Iuks suilicient with this boiler by steam pipe
connections; when 1 tie boilers were uncovered
no evidence was fouud of any broakace or
explosion; the fuel in the furnace wus there,
presenting the appearance of having boeu
allowed to die out. 6
Herman W. Luders sworn m foreman at
Harrison's bni lei's works, Gray's Kerry ex
amlned tne boiler at Caldwell's store; found a
iraoture of the coupling pipe: ft had been
crushed down by the falling timbers; fouud the
Ure-uoorajar about six lncues; the fuel was in
sidesome not even burnt new coals; tne
water in the holler, on turning the guaae.
flowed out freely, showing that 11 was up to the
correct height; nothiug inside was disturbed
am satisfied that there was ueltber any explo
sion or accident to the boiler; ao far as my ex
amination went, the boilers are in per
fect condition ; caunot make a full
examination without taking the boilers
apart or ralslnu Bteam in them.
William II. Harrison sworn Mil connected
with the manufacture of Harrison's hotter
made an examination of the boilers In Cald
well's place.
(Corroborated tbe foregoing witness )
Joseph Harrison affirmed I am the builder
of the Harrison boilers; did not make an ex
amination of tbe boilers In Caldwell's bulldln"
oulll after they had been examined by the pre01
vtous witness; the flues which carry oft' the
gaseB, etc, are very frail; they have been blown
out; they might have been so blown out by gun
powder, eto.

M. Victor Hugo has changed the title of
his new story, "Par Ordre da Roi" (by the
King's command), into "L'llomme qui rit."
The diflicnlty of translating this title will
probably induce the English translator to re
tain the original title, which it la stated, ap
plies to three out of the four volumes of whioa
the story conaists. The story will be divided
into two parts. The first, consisting of a sin
gle volume, will ha published in Paris under
tbe name of "The Sea aud Night;" the seoond,
consisting of three volumes, will be published
in Paris about a fortnight after the first
volume, and will bear the name originally in
tended for the entire work of "Par Ordre da
Roi."
Tennyson is the only English poet who is
much read in France. His visits to Pria
always attract a great deal of attention.
