Tbe Military. It was confidently expected that the First ivlsion Pennsylvania Militia would have mado i turnout to-day, and the hope was Indulged in ntil about two weeks since, when the conclu on was 1 arrived at that such a proceeding ould not be advisable on account of the ccle ratlon by tho firemen (a full account of which ill be found in another column). Nevertheless, wo of the organizations connected with the ilvision made street parades. At sunrise the licmbers of the Veteran Keystone Battery, InHr.r the command of Captain John V.

Unveiling of the Iyle Monument An ImmenMe Turnout of the Fire Department to Oo Honor to the ate Chief. David AI. I.yle Tho Cere monies at Old Oaks Cemetery Description of the Monument. To-day will be one long remembered by the firemen of Philadelphia, and the truly magnifi cent display made by the department, the deco rous conduct of the men, the excellent order maintained, and tho general bearing of all, will forever redound to tbelr credit. The monument project was started almost immediately on the receipt of the news of tho Chief Engineer's death. All differences of opi nion were forgotten, and all united immediately la the undertaking. It was supposed that ft would not be long before the monument would be erected. But the excitement died away; the projectors gave out one by one, and the project itself was nearly abandoned. It was at this time that the ofllcers whose names are appended came to the rescue and formed the Lyle Monu ment Association, the active labors of which are now nearly completed. The officers are Pre sident, Joseph R. Lyndall, Weccacoe Engine Company; V ice President, .Michael a. Lynch, Vigilant Engine Company; Secretary, John T. Watson, West Philadelphia Hose Company; As sistant Secretary, James McGough, Perseverance Hose Company; Treasurer, William D.Kendrlck, Columbia Engine Company. Since morning the city has been alive with the fire laddies, and as early as 11 o'clock the com panies commenced arriving on Broad street, and continued arriving nntil 1 o'clock, when the procession was formed and moved off in the Jollowing order.: Chief Marshal William F.

The chairman of the Building Committee then made his report, and the monument was un veiled, the bands playing "Hail to the Chief;" then followed a prayer py tne omciaung clergy man, alter whicu cnaries w. croone, i.sq., de livered the following address: The Addreao by Charles W. IlrooUe, Ki. Over two years ago, In the apparent flush and vigor of health, suddenly and without warning, the dread summons of the Almighty came to him whom to-day we honor and lament, and bade him join the Innumerable caravan of the dead. In tbe solitude of his room with no fond voice to soothe his parting hour; no hand to grasp in friendly, sacred grief his own before his spirit loft Its earthly tenement, his mandate came; and those who but a few short hours before had heard his voloe in cheering, kindly greeting, aud had met with him busy in the haunts of men, and bustling In the aveniioa nf itfn atood with blanched cheeks and quickly beating hearts, and "sorrow wondering eyes," aghast at the awful intelligence of the De stroyer's work. Strong men, rough and uncouth of manner oi speecn, turned asme w ui mo wji that came to tell the anguish of their hearts into their evesv the irlnnm nf a mreat orrlef pervaded the vibj, iuu ua awiui reaiiaiiuu ui uo maw truth of that waroinir. "In the midst of life we are In ileatli-" uma ,a m He who had braved a thousand times, amid the crackling timbers anil the falling ruins, the dread resper in the fields of life, em-apiid the perils and the dangers that were his dally surroundings, and yielded to thee, Ol Death, In the solemn still neHS and quiet of his own apartment, pawing from life Into eternity no man kuowctn how ami an swering the summons of bis Judge no man know cih when. Truly "Cod MfM hi o raratorloni waj,Hti won den to perform. And yet death in the common lot of all. "All that live shall die, passing through nature into eternity, ' but blent is he, and great his victory over death, who leaves behind nlm the memory of an unsullied and a spotlvxs name as heritage to those who mourn his loan, who builds his monument .within the hearts of loving friends, and writes his epitaph In good and noble deeds. Yet to the living also, as to the dead, la this an occasion of honor, for It. Indicated that "though doath may destroy association, and remove from us all that we know or see of thow we hold most dead, yet memory, through, the eye of faith, will lift the im penetrable veil, and peering beyond the grave, still animate the heart with loving sympathy. . To those eBperially entrusted with the completion of this work, praise Is particularly duo, for they have nueeeeded in giving a lasting expression, amid every adverse circumstance, of the feeling that suggestoU the perpetuation In this form of tho word of the esteem and affection felt for the departed "Chief.' 'TIS not tbe cold, dull marble that bespeaks his greatness; but the hearts that prompted, and the affection that executed, this monument to worth and merit. Music and the benediction followed, and the assemblage dispersed. Description of the Moaament. The following Is a description of tbe monu ment; It consists of a statue of the deceased, six feet eleven Inches In height, raised upon a pedestal fif teen feet in height, both cut out of Italian marble. It was executed at the establishment of Mr. Andrew Alexander, at Eleventh and Parrlsh streets, and Mr. Alfred btauch, the sculptor, has done his work la the most skills), artlstlo, and highly satisfactory manner. The statue represents the late Chief standing In nn easy and natural attitude. In Iront of a lire-plug. He Is clad In the habiliments of bis office, with head uncovered. On the left lapel of his coat is his badge. In bis light hand there Is a horn, and In his left hand he ho'da his hat, with tho frontispiece inscriled "Chief Engineer D. M. L." prominently dis played. ' Mr, stauch has made a very fine likeness or tho deceased, and the many frieuds of Mr. Lyle, who have viewed the figure while It progressed, have complimented tho artist highly for the correct and successful manner In which he has portrayed the features of the late Chief. Of the base, the cap Is highly ornamented, the prominent features being a laurel wreath, a mono gram, "D. M. L ," and a wreath of oak leaf branches. On the front of the die are the emblems of the Fire Department horn, hook, etc. Beneath these Is the Inscription showing to whose memory the monu ment is erected. On the reverse of the die are the names of the fire companies composing the Lyle Monument Association. This base has a sun-base of Pennsylvania blue marble cut so as to represent small square blocks. Mr. Stauch, who has proved himself so competent for the work, commenced the model In the spring of 1868. This was completed In a few weeks, and then cutting the figure out of marble was begun. There were several delays from various causes, but wlthiu a couple of months past the work was resumed vigorously and pushed to a successful completion. Tbe following are the names of the gentle men who had charge of the work: Building Committee Henry A. Cook, Chair man, Charles M. Englehart, Joseph Wagner, Jr., John B. "Wiegner, Peter C. Ellinaker. Committee on Location P. C. Ellraakcr, John G. Butler, John H. Fleming, P. J. Don nelly. Finance Committee Michael B. Lynch, Wil liam Y. Campbell, Clement C. Clay, William MeDevitt. IP A. IS" C E. Particulars of the "Affair" of February 7 The Barricading Protest of the "Marseillaisft" Editors The Debate on Roche fort's Arrest in the Corps Legislatif. Extent of the Barricades. . The English papers relate the progress of the re cent, siralr of the barricades In Paris: At about 10 o'clock on February 7, numerous groups of people appeared in the Rue Abonkir, but no scilous disor der is reported, nan an nour later an attempt was made to throw up barricades in the Fanbounr du Temple, and also In the neighborhood of the Cour- cine liurracKs. carriagesanu omniouses wereupset, but the presence of the polWe suraoed to disperse the rioters. About the same time six omnibuses had been overturned in the Hue le Paris, at Bellevlllo, and a somewhat Imposing barricade was thus formed. At the barricade which was erected early on the morning of February 8, In the Rue de Paris, HeUe- vine, nfteen persons engagea in aerennmg it were arrcBted. A Commissary of Police named Lombard was wounded on tbe left side of his chest by a bayo net thrust. Some distance from this spot a Mergent de Ville was struck in the breast by a revolver. At 13 80 this morning the rioters broke into the go n shop or m. Leraucneux, ltue .Laiayetie, ami oeuampcu with 40 muskets and 860 revolvers. The total number of arrests eilected on February 8 Is i&o. M. Flourens is still at large. The latter and M. Hologee prevented the assassination of the Com miBsary oi rouce, wno was araggea inw ine street by the crowd after closing the meeting iu the Rue du Jriunnres. Only one serious conflict occurred during tho day, and this was on tne ltue uoerKumpr, where a Darn. cade was removed by the Gardes de Paris. The ti oops did not make use of their arms, home struy revolver snots came from tne ranks or tne rioters, ar.a one ponce agent was most severely wounded. About 100 ringleaders and others carrying arms were arrested. It is stated that ton strong barri cades were still left during the night, chiefly iu the Rue du Temple, Rue St. Maur, and ltue Oberkampf, and also on the (uay Valroy. They were formed y overturned carriages, omnibuses, aud building ma terials. Ihe (,'azette den 1'ribviutux mentions some attempts at throwing up barricades in the Quur ticr du Temple, stating, however, that no resist ance was ottered, and, consequently, there was uo conflict. Accounts published both Iu the Finaro and the Gauloit confirm the statement that a large number of the rioters have been severely wounded by sword cuts or staves iu the encounters which had occurred at various points. An article apears In the Jtfforme of the 9th, sigBed by M. Flourens, in which the writer narrates the ineffectual attempts made by him on the 7th to erect barricades aud organize a revolution. The Paris correspondent of the Time writes on Feb. 8: The Impetuous Flourens rusliod back into the bull aud auuounced to an excited public that Rochefort was arrested. At the same time he ex claimed, "Citizens, 1 hereby declare myself an in surgent." Suiting the action to the word he drew a revolver and fired a shot In the air as the signal for the commencement of civil war. Several men then produced pistols and eutlasses and rallied round him. The police Judging that they were not strong enough to deal with such a mob wlUiout bloodshed, disappeared as if by enchant ment. But the unfortunate Commissary of Police, who, wearing his oiiiclal scarf, was sitting In a chair on tbe platform, in pursuance of the disagreeable duty imposed on him of watching the proceedings of public meetings, could not get away in time. Flurens put a pistol to his throat and said, "I arrest you la the name of the republic. If you resist I will kill you." The whole party then went out into the street, Flourens dragging the Commissary of Police by the collar as a prisoner of war, while the mob shouted, "Bravo 1" "Vive la RepnbUquel" "Vive Rochefort 1" "Down with assassins!" Protrnt of the Editors of the " Marseillaise." On February 8, the remaining editors of the itar leillaue signed the following protest: Yesterday evening Iiouri lwchefort, deputy of the First Circumscription, was arrested by the police under the orders of M. Emlle Ollivier, at the moment he was about to enter the ball of the Mametilau hired by him to meet his electors, lie was ar rested In tho midst of them, faithful to the last to his mandate. . Never did bo sanguinary aa affront fall upon the cheek of the people. It Is the lid of December recommenced, but this time in con junction with the men of the Rue de Poitiers. The outrage only strikes the democracy, which alone remains In the breach. The democracy In 1861 was a party ; in 1870 It Is the whole nation. It Is more than an Insnlt; It is a provocation, colleagues, friends, co-rllgloninu of Hochefort, we shall con tinue to wave aloft the flag which he held, and which ho will soon rejoin, unless It be snatched from enr hands. This flag in the flag of democratic so cialism, of rtciuilttion implaeabU. It is the flag of the people. It will lead us to victory the day that the people desire It. Debate oo tbe Arrest of Rochefort. Tn the sitting of the Legislative Body on February 9, M. Jules Ferry maintained that the action taken by the rovernment was illegal. M. Ollivier, the Minister of Justice, refuted this statement, an I ex pressed surprisu that the Ministry should be accused f causing occurrences which It had every reason to regret. De added, "'The question of law is perfectly simple. Itlvatc meetings do not come within the Jurisdiction of the authorities, and if such gather ings were to be dissolved the Minister of the In terior would not bedoing his duty, but the meetings now in question were public meetings dlngulsed. This fact Is proved by the report of the proceed ing. However, Justice wbl have to de cide upon the matter, and if a decision to the contrary should be arrived at reparation would be made." M. Ollivier concluded thus: "It Is not postdble that order can be seriously compro mised. - We are lighting not for order, but for liberty. tCnecm.) After speeches from MM. Pelle tan and Pinard the Chamber panaed to the order of the day. M. Jules Kerry thereupon asked for expla nations relative to the arrest of the writers and stair of the MurttiUaim: M. Ollivier said: ".No arrest has been ordered by the Government. Judicial pro ceedings havo commenced. 1 have nothing m.ire to add." M. Ferry exclaimed : "The administration of Justice Is supremely suspected." This exclama tion was received with loud marks of dissent and crtesof "Order," and, amid great tumult, M.Jules Ferry was called to order by the President, The Paris correspondent of the London Am writes on February 8: it Is universally admitted that M. Garubetia, by his speech against Rochefort s arrest, placed himself in the first rank of Parlia mentary orators. This is said not onlv by opposition journals but by the mit-al!led Debat anil the en tirely Ministerial VonHtiiiuiimiuil. M. Oambnt.ta quite agreed with M. Ollivier thatwhon Rochefort was surlpped of his Parliamentary privileges by a first vote there was no legal reason why the judgment obtained against him should not be carried out to its legitimate consequences namely, execution. But he thought that by an exercise of Parliamentary prerogative tho House might give an efficient Injunction to the Minister of Justice to suspend the execution of tne jnagment, ami ne tnougnt sncn an Injunction called for by high political considerations. The trifling sentence of six months' Imprisonment showed that the Judges did not think the offense very serious. "Where, therefore," he asked, "was the necessity to execute it immediately, at the ter rible cost of a political perturbation, an interference with the privileges of deputies, which, as a scneral rule, it was desirable to maintain, and of a suspen sion of the representation of an Important constitu ency for the rest of tbe session ?" The considera ble number of forty-five deputies voted with M. Cambctta. In the division list are names not usu ally found tn tho ranks of the Left, aud among them the staunch Breton lionapartist.tlie Marquis de Plre, who exctaimed, when the numbers of the division were proclaimed, "es, tne corps igisiatir nas adopted, but has at the same time abdicated." M. Thiers on the Benefits of Protection. In the masterly speech In which M. Thiers re viewed the replies made to his argument on the 22d ult. he said : What Is the course then left you to pursue 1 It is to renounce all the Industries I have named, and produce nothing but wine. But I ask you, "Can you make wine at Rouen or at Valenciennes?" You know the situation and history of Portugal. If there is a country which could limit herself to wine it Is Portugal. Now, every one knows, and It is great Ignorance not to know what has become of Portugal. Well, If France would voluntarily renounce the cotton, woollen, Iron, and all the agricultural In dustries, it would be believed that she bod fallen into a state of lunacy. It is said, and here is the great argument, tbat all Industries not temporarily protected are monopolies, aud we are told that to enrich monopolists taxes are thus laid on all the SrodnctlonB of France. Monopoly 1 You shall see ow little those who maintain this theory have re flected. They mar have read or written a good deal, but it appears to me that they have reflected very little, because they have failed to observe in contestable facts. You declare that every Industry permanently protected is a monopoly. Weill There is a monopoly, it is true; but do you know on what side? it is not on the side of France, but on that of the foreigner. Do you kuow the - purpose of this supposed monopoly estab lished, they say, for the profit of some French men? To destroy foreign inomipoly. At the first men tion of this truth it is not understood by every one. I shall render It plain to all. Yes! the supposed French monopoly prevents foreign monopoly, and I shall cite facts from CO years ago; others within fewer vears. Durlus the wars of the Einplrd. for ex ample, when France and Kngland alone manufac tured cotton In Europe, what was the price of a kilo gramme Ci 1-10 pounds) of cotton yarn which to-day costs nearly three francs? It was, during the war of tbe Kmplre, as nigti as a( francs, it is true that at that time the price of the raw material was very high, because of the war. But peace came, and do you know what paid in 1815 for the kilogramme of cotton yarn which now sells for three francs? The price was 14 francs! How did it fall from 14 to 3 francs? There was at that time prohibition, but despite all the customs lines, theie was communica tion between the two markets not alone on the sea board, but over our entire continental frontier. Ac cording as French production developed (there was mechanical progress, it Is true, but there was also French competition opposed to English), the price fell from 14 Irenes to 12. to 10, too, to 5, and is to day at 8 francs. What then has been the effect of the pretended monopoly accorded to French Indus try? Don't you see It? It compelled the foreigner to reduce his price from 14 to 8 francs. It is this competition created agaiust the foreigner which de stroyed bis monopoly, and while you accord 6, 10, or 16 sous, if you wIbIi, for the protection of the national product, you compel the foreign product to fall 5 and 4 francs. These are facts which extend to fio years. I Bhall cite some which date from a nearer pei iod. When the flax industry had been destroyed in France by the establishment la England of spin ning machinery, the price of linen advanced at-ouce to an exorbitant price. There was only an insignia caunt dutv, and the market was nnder the control of the Knglislu Do you know how much the kilo giamme of linen yarn, which sells to-day for 8 francs, sold for at that time ? It sold for 7 fraucs. Soon, owing to the protection of 5 per cent, which I ac corded, and then 20 per cent, given by M. Duchatol, the Freuch linen Industry reappeared, aud gradu ally advanced so as to be able to meet the demands of Fiance. Thus the French product, which you call the product of monopoly, lecause It was pro tected by a trilling duty, compelled foreign mono poly to cease, and to reduce from 7 francs to 3 fraucs !i0 centimes. This example brings us to twenty years ago. Do yon wish for one more recent ? Do you know how much the metrical quintal of cool cost at Marseilles, and iu the Italian ports, twenty five vears ago, before the mines of the Grand Combe were developed as they have been, and before railroads were lu communication with the port of Marseilles? The metrinal quintal of coal, including freight and other charges, cost at one time as hleh as five fraucs, but fell to four franca fifty centimes. Isow, what has it fallen to since the coals of the Grand Combe come to Marseilles ? It has reduced to three francs, and is sold at that price Ui tho port of Oenoa. Because, I repeat, the national product competed with the foreign, and instead Of creating a monopoly to the prollt of France, it removed a monopoly which was entirely to the advantage of the foreigner. M. Thiers pro ceeded to illustrate the subject further, by citing the case of a pitchy substance (brai) which lately came Into extensive use in France. It advanced from fortv to seventy franci In Kngland, where the French makers procured It, but It has fallen to about forty francs sluce the French determined to make it them selves. , FINAINCU ANI COJUMEKCE, Omoa or ihk EviNmo Tilboraph,!

The Employers' Hefuse to Arrede to the) De mands ol' their Workmen. The hatters of Orange, New Jersey, about seven ' hundred in nninber, have been on a strike for a lew days past, ana are still out, with no prospect of a settlement of the difficulties.. The object of the strike is not to obtain higher wages, but to break up the. "Hat Manufactu rers' Association," a society of employers, orga nized for protection against the jourueymen. The batters do not express themselves as dis satisfied with their wares or with their treat ment while at work; bnt the rules of the employ ers association are sucu as to Keep tne men under tbe most rigid government, and it is feared by the workmen that these rules muy be enforced to their detriment. One of tbe most obnoxious of these rules binds each manu facturer not to employ a man who has been dis charged from a shop in tho city, whatever may have been the cause of his discharge. Tbis rale, it is claimed, has been enforced, and twenty good workmen, the latter say, have at different times been compelled to leave town because nttcr having quarrelled with their own bosses they could not find employment elsewhere. At a recent meeting it was determined that the strike should continued until the employers would sign an agreement renouncing all connec tion with the society. Four of the manufac turers, who have not been members of the so ciety, sympathized with the strikers and have Bigned the paper. Work is therefore being car ried on in their shops, but as the shops are limited in capacity, the great, majority of the hatters are oat of employment. It is calculated that 1000 men and women are out of employ ment, ana mat tncir loss is wuu a aay. The bosses say that they are obliged to keep up their union for self-protection; tbat they have rights as well as their workmen, and that they will not submit to the demands of the men.
