The Emperor Ilerelvln the Result of the Jilerllon ne ecene ai me luucrica. From (Jalignani't Messenger, May 22. The grand ceremony of presenting to the Em peror the oilloial declaration of the result of the late vote given by the French people took place to-day, at 1 o'clock, In the Salle des Ktats of the Louvre. The scene was one of unuMual splendor, and although In some particulars resembling the great annual Bitting at the opening of the legislative ses sion, was lndeilnitely more Imposing. The general arrangements of the spacious ball for the public were scarcely changed, but some Important modifi cations had been enacted in the portion of the salle appropriated to his Majesty and the Court. On this occasion the Emperor and Empress sat together on the throne placed on a raised estrade under a dais, with chairs of state for the l'rince Im perial, Prince Napoleon, and the other princes of the Imperial family on the right, next the Emperor; While on the left, next the Empress, were similar Beats for the I'rincess Clotilda, the Princess Ma thllde, and the other princesses. Behind his Ma jesty were to stand the great oitlcers of the crowu, and behind the Empress the ladles of the Imperial household and those attending on the various prin cesses. Below the steps and in front of all, on the left, was a seat for the Puke de Cambaceres, Grand Master of the Ceremonies. On the right and left of the throne were benches for the Ministers, members or the Privy Council,. marshals, admirals, grand cresses of t he Legion of Honor, etc. in front, on the riirht. were places for the Senate. and behind for the Councillors of State. This ar rangement. It will be seen, is different from that srenerallv witnessed when the members of this last mined body are assigned seats, so to speak, on the Mens ( f the throne. The reason of the alteration J, however, perfectly simple. As his Majesty, by the terms of the constitution, Is to receive the plebiscite from the three great bodies of the State, ho ceuld Dot have one of them, as on ordinary occa sions, close te him, and the other two apart. The whole three would have to come together, and hence the position of the Council of State was forcedly changed. The three Great Holies were therefore placed in front and the letters of convocation to ttie Counsellors made use of the expression "The Pre sident of Section. Masters of Requests, Auditors. and ordinary members shall have places for this time iu the 1 odv of the hall, behind the Senate." on the left, parallel with the Senate, were seats for the leeislative body. Behind were places for all the deputations, courts of law, institute of France, muni cipal council, prelects oi tne :eine ami ponce, mgu functionaries In the various ministries, superior oill- ccrs of the army and navy, chefs-de-battalion or the National Guard, etc. The diplomatic body, which was out In great strength, occupied their accus tnmed nlaces. Cent-Gardes were posted on the estrade and at the entrance of the nan. as tneir majesties arrived liom tlu . Tuileries by the new galleries no display took ulace outside beyond the appearance of the haniisome equipages which conveyed the great orn- cihi tersonages to tne sitting. The deputation of the legislative body, the presi dent, vice-presidents, and secretaries were conveyed to the Louvre in court carriages, escorted oy cav alry, and after alighting at the Pavillon-Denon, Place Napoleon 111, ascended to the Galerle des Sept Metres, where they awaited their Majesties arrival. Althoueh tlie doors were not to be closed until hall-past twelve, the persons who had obtained tickets began to arrive at ten, and before eleven all the places appropriated to tne public were occupied By degrees the official seats became tilled, and at last the mass of uniforms, decorations, and richly embroidered costumes Oceania quite overpowering The front of the galleries presented long lines o . beautiful summer toilettes of the brightest colors. and a flood of sunshine brought oat vividly the rich var.ety ami Drunancy oi tne scene. At about ten minutes before 1. a salvo of artil lery from the Invalldes announced that their Majes ties had left the Tuileries on their way t the sitting. The various princes and princesses of the Imperial family hail arrived some time before, and repaired to the French gallery to join in the cortege when the Imperial party came forward, in tnat extensive niece and in the Salle Lebrun the large room which leads to the Salle des Etats, a double line of Cent Gardes were posted. At l o'clock a master of the ceremonies threw back the hangings frem the entrance to the ilall of (sittings ana announced "ine emperor:" jmme dlateiy every tne rose, and the Imperial cortege eu tered. First came various oitlcers of the court In full uniform, chamberlains, equeries, masters of ceremonies, Grand Marshal of the Palace; the Princes of the Imperial family having rank at court. Trince Napoleon, the Prince Imperial, the Emperor and Empress, the Princess Clotilda, the Princess Mathllde. the other Princesses, ladles and oilicers of the court, thote of the various Princes and Prin cesses, etc. The moment their Majesties appeared the nail ranir with " Vive V Finvereur!" " Vtve V hnperatrice "Yioele lYinct Iiiiverial!" The cheering continued dur ng the whole passage of the imperial cortege to the estrade at the end of the hall. Their Jiajesttes and the other high personages having taken their filaces as indicated above, the deputation of the eslslatlve body was Introduced by a master of the ceremonies, audM. Schneider, the President, having ascended the steps leading to the throne presented to his MajeBtv the otllcial declaration of the vote of the Freuch people on May 8, ratifying the 8enatm ConHultum of the 20th of April last. As the assem bly was still upstanding the Grand Master of Cere monies, after having taken his Majesty's orders, Bald, "Gentlemen be seated." Mr. rHrhnelder'a NpeecU. Mr. Schneider then delivered the following ad- areas: 'Sire : The Legislative Body Is happy to lay be. Xore your Majesty the solemn answer which the nation, by 7,38o,0oo suffrages, has just made to the plebiscite which you submitted to It. In perfect com munity of Ideas with that striking manifestation we oifer to the Emperor, the Empress, and the Prince Imperial our Homage and congratulations. Eighteen years ago France, tired out by vio lent changes, and eager for Security, conildent in your genius and in the Napoleonio dv nasty, placed in your hands, together with the lmpei lal crown, the authority and force which public necessity imperatively called for. The expec tation of the nation was uot disappointed. Social order was soon re-established, ami great things were achieved. All classes of society beheld their comfoit and well-being Increased ; agriculture, com merce, and manufactures bounded forward to an extent previously unknown: and during that aug mentation of public prosperity France also beheld her influence augment wna foreign countries. But from the commencement your Majesty looked anxiously forward to the moment when that centra- I it ion ol power would no longer respoud to the as- nimtH ns f the country when tranquil and reassured : and see the march of modern society you proclaimed that liberty was to be the crowning point of the edifice. Therefore a noble enterprise, which will iih .trnal honor of your reign, tempted you. and you resolve to assure to France one of the first ranks among free nations, The dates of tiie win November, 1800, and 18th January, 107, attest your generous initiative arid vr ur patriotic designs.

But, faithful to the great principle on which your Government is based yon would not consent, without the direct participation of the people, to the Introduction of so considerable a modifica tion In the power which you derive from their free will.

GEARY. Ill" Excellency dincoarsc About the Perline or American shipping The whole Mystery Cleared I'p. Governor Geary has addressed to Vice-Ad- miral Forter a letter on the decline of American commerce, from which we extract the follow ing Havinir. with much satisfaction, read your letter of the 12th instant to Hon. James S. Negley.on the sub ject of recovering our lost commerce, and restoring to the country advantages which a well-organized steamship service is capable of giving when properly directed oetwecn maritime nations, i taive great pleasure in expressing my views upon a subject of such vast Importance to the honor and prosperity of our nation. A COMMERCIAL CRISIS. A most important crisis has arrived in the history of the commerce of the United States, which de mands action on the part of the Government as prompt as it should be energetic. In the sugges tions which have been mane and tne views expressed upon so important a question of national policy, it is to be hoped that motives will not be perverted nor objects misconstrued. For ray own part, i can truly say that 1 am actuated omy oy a sincere desire to subserve public interests and to effect the greatest possible good of that country which every true America proudly calls his own. The guardians of an our great national interests Biioun not permit themselves to be lulled Into false security by cun ningly devised professions, not only upon this ques tion, but upon all other measures- which have se cured to us a country unexampled In every branch of our varied interests our manufactures, our agrt culture, and our commerce measures which are coeval with the spirit of our Institutions. MISSIONS AND DESTINIES. There arc missions and destines for nations as well as for individuals. The mission of our nation is, I trust, that of peace; Us destiny that of elevating the human race by spreading happiness broadly within the reach of the vast working masses. For this. commerce Is the great means. "When It is active, Industry thrives: then we see the smiling faces, and hear the happy voices of prosperity. But when It is still, busy minus and active nanus earn not their lull rewards; the worklngraen seek vainly for em ployment; dejection takes tne place or happiness, and the nation is cheeked in Its onward course. Such Is the present condition of our country. It caused the rebellion. WHO CONQUERED THE REBELLION.. Minds and hearts like yours conquered that; but five years have passed since then and still the deepest injury remains remains while all that is re quired for Its removal is spread around us in pro fusion by a bountiful Providence, and we have stood idle to the use. FOLLOWING ROMAN EXPERIENCE. Let your advice be followed: it is that of 1 toman experience In using our adversaries' weapons when they are of better forms. Let steamships of iron be built: commence at the true starting point by creating iron ship building yards which can compete with those of Great Britain.

We have the best of Iron and coal, favorable locations for building yards. able minds, willing nanus with these facilities for building and with the requisite aid to launch forth enterprise, will come Iron ships of our own, as supe rior to those or l-.ngiand as were our wooden ones to hers before those of Iron advanced beyond both; and with these will come that satisfaction of which you speak and which we shall all so well appreciate, TUB MAN WITH A NOBLE HERITAGE NOT OKABT, You, sir, having a noble heritage of naval renown. early showed yourself worthy of it, in the line which peace permitted your proiession, uy advancing com merce upon the ocean, and, when your country's need called you to the front of danger, In the trial of battles waged for her safety, you made the name your sire had left you still more illustrious by deeds of your own; adding still further to these, you now return to tne euons wmcu peace permits to regene rate our commerce. OEART THANKS PORTER IN BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE My thanks I freely offer for what you have done, It has been much, but 1 believe you will do more: and I hope long to see your directing ability at the head of that department of Government of which as an officer you have been so distinguished for gailaut services. 1 nave tne nonor to be yours, respectfully.

During the past three weeks there has been a succession of tornadoes in the valley at Deer Lodge City, Montana, unpleasant as unpre cedented. They last from one to three hours, and are succeeded by a perfect calm. Their general direction is from northwest to southeast. The width of the storm track is not over a mile, its greatest violence being confined to a belt of 200 or 400 yards, crossing the valley diagonally a snort distance below town, ana occasionally the side current giving them a lively shaking up in the village. The first two wasted their lury on fences, trees, ana moaerate-sizea boul ders, tossing them about like jack-straws, aud, lust bywayot variety, wrencnea a couple ot logs out of the Decker building, in the lower art oi tne town. But the third played a piece of diabolism not on the bills. Mr. A. Elliott recently purchased the Hall farm oa Cottonwood creek, a half mile from town. It has on it a double log house, one story, having a rooi area oi seventeen by forty teet On it mere is a aui root. Air. Elliott was en gaged in rerouting it with boards, and bad it about completed on Saturday when tho 6torm beiran. Ilis son, a lad of a do.en years, was on one coi ner, and he on the comb. As the whirl wind dipped he called to his son to jump down, and Mr. Elliot clasped the comb projection of the boardsto prevent being blown to the ground. Just at the instant the entire roof, rafters and all, was lifted from the building, aud raising with the whirlwind, sailed away, attaining an altitude of about forty feet at the greatest, and landing one hundred and eighty-nine feet iroui the bouse, where Mr. Elliott was dumped by the concussion; the roof performed a somersault over him, and was scattered in a thousand fragments over the valley. Strange as it may appear, Mr. Elliot is only blightly bruised. The lad was uninjured, the board roof gliding out from undei him, leaving him sitting disconsolate on the dirt roof, while bis father was abandoning him at the rate of sixty miles an hour. When it is considered that the roof contained 1200 feet of lumber, was ii ailed to heavy log rafters, and that the whole affair was carried lS'J feet intact, some idea of tre force of the whirlwind may be obtained.

A MISSOURI FIESD. A Man In Ma Dunn City Kill ITU Wife Inch by Inrh-IIe Is Hanged to the Nearest Tree by Ills Indignant MeUhbora. Ve learn the particulars of a savace and brutal affair which occurred at Medoc, a small town in Jasper county, Missouri, from a cor respondent oi the Kansas city journal, ine man's name who perpetrated the foul deed is A. D. Taylor, lie was taKen from tne custody of the constable by the citizens of Medoc, and hung about 10 o clocK on the evening ot tne 2(Jth of May. Tho following are the facts as stated by this correspondent: For some inontns past layior nas been almost daily in the habit of whipping; and otherwise abusing his wife (who is said to be a most estimable lady). His abuse of his wife has been growing more ana more aggravated ana severe, until Friday night last, when it seems, he turned a fiend, and began to abuse her in a most brutal and outrageous manner tirst, by kicking and culling; then he struck her to the floor and stamped her with his heels. After Eunishing her in this way until he was tired, e took a butcher knife and cut her hair Bhort. Still growing more and more devilish, he broke a gridiron to shivers over her head. Then, with a knife, he began to torture her by hacking her in the face and on the breast, until he had literally cut her breast and face into slices, and to make the torture more severe, 6tabbeu nerin the different parts of the body with an old pair of scissors. 'He seemed to want to kill her by degrees. During all this timo he kept up his kicking, cuff ing, and stamping, and, by the time his fury hud abated, he had inllictcd such horrible wounds that life was almost extinct. Several of the citizens, hearing the cries of tho woman, were attracted to the place. On finding that they had discovered what he had been doing, aDd fearing that they would take measures to punish him, he fled to the woods near by, where he kept himself concealed until Sunday morning, when he called at Mr. liobert aiiace s larm-nouse, and asked for some breakfast. Mr. Wallace, having heard what had occurred on Friday night, and knowing that there was a writ in the hands of the constable for his arrest, took it upon himself to arrest hitn, took him to town ana delivered mm into tne nanus oi tne con stable. "The citizens.In the meantime, hearing of the outrage, and of toe critical condition oi his wife, became more and more enraged, and by evening began to snow signs oi violence, seve ral were summoned to assist to guard him from violence. About half-past nine the constable decided to move the prisoner to Justice Ander son's bouse, eome two miles distant, lor sate keeping, aDd for trial on tho morrow. "Alter Having gone about a mue witn tne pri soner, a posse of about thirty armed men came up, took Taylor and hanged hira to a tree.where lie remained until tms jorenoon. ne was men taken down and brought to town. When I saw his body it was lying in nis own oince. ms wife, all'cut and bruised from head to foot, was still alive on Monday. It is probable that she will not recover. 'A. D. Tavlor was a man of education, was by profession a physician, and is said to have been a very succes6iui practitioner, lie was aoout forty years of ago. A few years since he quit Lis profession and went to preaching, in which capacity he was very successful, being a fine sneaker. During ms ministerial labors lie was connected with the Christian church. When the war broke out he received an appointment as surgeon in tne union army, wnicn position he held until the war closed, Since that time he has been practising his profession. On in quiring what could have induced him to abuse Ins wile in sucn a nornuie manner, i was torn that there was nothing the matter but his own vicious nature. "It is doubtless the best policy, in most cases, to punish crime by law, but who will say that any man ought to be allowed to live one hour after torturing his wife (whom he had volun tarily sworn to love ana protect; as tms man did?" 1IASC0CK. Ills Relations to the President A Counter- ntateuieut. despatch from Bioux City, dated June 3, says: General Hancock arrived last evening on the steamer Miner, on bis return from distributing troops at tne diirerent luuian agencies on tne t nper llissouri, between this point and Cheyenne. Upon his arrival here he was visited by Mr. Collins, editor of the Sioux City Time, who called his attention to the despatches from Washington, or .May Tt, charg ing him with having shown discourtesy to the Presi dent on different occasions while the latter was the General of the army ; the said despatches also stat ing these allegations as a reason why the President refused to assign general Hancock to a command commensurate with his rank, and at the same time giving to a Junior a command of a higher grade over General uancocK. ine uenerai unuesiiaungiy asserts these allegations to be In the main false, aud Bays that he Intends on an early occasion, after hav ing seen wnav nas ueen puousneu in reierenee to this subject, while absent on the Upper Missouri, to formally reply to the allegations, as charged, in detail, they seeming to bear the impress of autho rity, and this occasion otlerlug to him the only opportunity hitherto presented that warranted a formal reply to such allegations. General Hancock was not aware of the publication of the despatches, or any part of them, correct or incorrect, as pub lished, nor the origin or cause of their publication until he read the newspapers containing them, two days since, at Port Randall, and therefore is not conversant with all that has gained credence during his absence.

This was an action upon the official bond, in 110,000, of Mr. Flannigan, as naval oitlcer. It was alleged that by the passage of the Tenure-of- Otllee act he was virtually discharged, but he re mained in the office for two months and received the emolument thereof, in which consisted the breach of the bond. The defense pleaded that Mr. Flannigan was regularly in oillce until the regular appointment of his successor, and that he rendered services, earning the moneys received by him. The Judge said be deemed it necessary to have the otllcial correspondence upon the subject of the ottlce, after the passage of the act above mentioned, and was of opinion that this matter should have been referred to the Auditor of the Treasury. At all events, he postpeued the case until the ICth instant. The Drought oflMif). Divtrict Court Jude Tliayer.

Destruction or the rnntee nionx mission ny a Hurricane. The following telegram from the Rev. Samuel D. Hinaman was received this morning, by William Welsh, Esq., of this city: 'Mission and hospital utterly destroyed by hurricane. Family safe." These are sad tidings for the friends of this mission to the Sioux Indians. The church, school house, hospital, aud mission house were most tasteful, convenient, and effective in their influence upon the Indians. Tho loss will no doubt exceed fifteen thousand dollars, and tho Indians will be much depressed, as through these buildings they were buoyed up with the evidence of the white man s interest in them. Fortunately such calamities usually awaken a deep Interest in the sufferers, and it is to be hoped that In this case this effective mission will not be allowed to languish. THE ENGLISH TRAGEDY. The Seven-Fold Murder near ITxbrldxc A Whole hainlly llutcnereu. From the Daily Xetc$, May 24. One of the most extraordinary tragedies which has taken place for many years, was discovered last evening at the village of Denliain, about two miles from Lxbridce. It seems that a family named Mar shall resided at a cottage ln that village, the hus band carrvincr on business as an engineer. Be- sides Marshall, there lived in the cottage- his wife and three children, whose ages ran betweeu three and nine years, and also the mother and sister of Marshall. This day (Tuesday) had been tlxed for the marrige of the Bister, anil It is to the fact of her wedding dress being brought home that the dis covery of the murder Is to be attributed. Nothing had been seen of the murdered persons since Satur day, but upon a young girl going to the cottage yes terday with the garment referred to, and gaining no reply, the neighbors had their suspicions aroused, and an entry was soon ctl'ected into the house. A scene of the most horrible description then presented itself. On the ground tloor the bodies of Mrs. Marshall and her sister-in-law were found quite dead the former lying on her back, and the latter, who had her night-dress on and was evidently preparing for bed, was placed across her. Both had their heads fearfully mutilated, aud tho absence of blood about the place was remarked by those who witnessed the dreadful discovery. At the right hand, on entering the cottage, and nearthe lire-place, three children belonging to Marshall were also found with their heads frlght'ully battered, and also quite dead. The mother of Marshall was like wise found, having been brutally murdered in the same way; and on entering the shop where Marshall had been at work, wearing a smock-frock, his body was also found. It was covered with sacks, and It was apparent that he'had a desperate struggle. Ilis hands were scratched In several places, and there were marks us if he had been dragged about the ground. His head had also been beaten In the same manner as those of the other victims. There was another child belonging t Marshall a little boy, aged 10 mouths who had been sent to his grandmother's to be "out of the way" during the weddingof Marshall's sister; but for that circumstance there is very small doubt that the little creature would have been added to the list of tho mnrdered members of the family. The medical gentlemen called were Drs. Ferris and Macnamara, and It Is their opinion that the awful deed has been perpetrated as long since as Saturday liictiL or Sunday moruintr. The country constabu lary have been unable, up to the present time, to obtain any clue as to the murderer, or the cause of the dreadiui crime, a iorgo uamiuer sua an ordinary axe with wuicn tne muruers are snnnosed to have been committed have been discovered with traces of blood upon them. Whatever the motive by which tho murderer or murderers for It seems ditllcult to lmairine the fearful work can have been done by one person robbery does not seem to have been the object, for nothing appears to have been dis turbed; the rings and several articles of jewelry worn by the unfortunate persons not having been removed. Th excitement ln the village is intense. Mar. shall and his wife and Bister were, it Is said, much respected by their neigtmors. Rew York Money and Mtoek market. Niw YObx, June 6.

The supply Is not only ample but far in excess of present wants. We ouote demand loans at 'SaA per cent, on good and choice collaterals.
