OBITUARY.
Prosper fllerim.
A. cable telegram announces ihc death of this
distinguished author and member of the French
Academy. lie was born at Paris on the 3Sta of
Sc'i'tcmber, ISO.'!. His lather was the painter
Merlmee, Secretary of the School of Fiuo Arts.
After receiving an excellent education the sub
ject of this hketch studied law and was received
as an advocate, bat instead of practising: his
jrofession te at ouce entered into the service
of tbe government, at the mmo time making a
f peclnliy of literature, which occupied all his
leisure hour..
After the revolution of 1SJ50 Comto d'Argout
appointed )iiin Scerctaiv to bis Cabinet, and
eubbequeiitly he became Secretin' to the Minis
ter of (jcnn'ierce and Chief of. Bureau to the
Minister oi Marino. In 1831 lie succeeded M.
Yitet as JuM cctor of Ancient and Historical
Work? of Fmuce; but this position he abandoned
almost iiuumlirttely after its ucceptanee to re
enter tbe Ministry.
M. Mtritutc made revernl tours through
Finite for literary purposes. Tbe results of
these journeys t ere his "Voyage duns le midi
de la France" (l&t.V-S), "Voyage dans l'ouest
cle la Fram e" (18:r-8). ''Votao dans Auvergne
et dans Luuousiu" (.1833"), "Vovage en Corse"
(1840-ii), "-Monuments Historiipies" (this bcin
a leporl to tlie Minister of tbo Interior), "Peln
tures de lelise Saint-Savin," with designs by
Gerard Sccuin (1S44). In 1810, while on a visit
to Spain, be became acquainted with the Em
press Eugenie, who seems to have borne him in
iriendly remembrance after ber elevation to the
throne. The revolution of 1818 was supported
by bim, aud tbe Provisional (lovernment ap
lointed lilm one of the commissioners charged
vitu the woik of telling the property of the
Orleans family.
Some Uu.c after, because the courts had cou
th inncd M. Libil, an old friend of his, for contu
macy, M. Mi rimee published two letters in the
J.erue den Ih-nx-Mondes, sharply criticising the
nction of the Judges. For this ho was brought
before the Court aiid condemned to make an
apology. a. aUo to sutler fifteen days' imprison
ment. He succeeded M. Nodlier in the French
Academy. Never having been at any time a
ltepubliean he w as one of tbe earliest to give in
Ms adhesion to the Empire, an l in 1853 be was
appointed a Senator of Franco. He was named
(JotnmaDder of the Legion of Honor in 18G0,
having been for several years previous an ofllcer
of the order.
It would consume more space than we can
spare to.niitte all the published works of M.
Aleilmee. They are quite numerous .and volumi
nous, and have won for their author a decidedly
high reputation.
By bis death the French Academy loses one
of its most brilliant members.
Tlli-aor, Prince of Kitog.
A cable despatch from Bombay, via London,
mentions a icport that the Prince of Kung has
been murdered in China. Should this report
prove true it will be generally regretted by all
ioreign Governments, as the Prince was one of
the most lii eral men in the Empire. lie was an
uncle of tbe reigning Emperor Kl-tsiang, and
brother of Hie Emperor Hieng-fung, who died
in August. 1801. lor mony years he had held
important positions In the En pire, and after
tbe death oi ui3 brother ho became regent, and
he'd that ofliceduringthe minority of Kl-tsiang.
He first o' taiued a reputation in Europe and
America at the time of the diplomatic quarrel
which followed tbo last war between China and
Great Britain and France. Appointed absolute
plciiipoteniiary to negotiate a treaty, ho aston
icd the n piisentatives of tbe allies by a dis
play of diplomatic skill tbey had hardlr ex
pected to meet with in Cbica. The treaty which
he concluded was as advautageous to his coun
try as to England and France, aud was observed
with scrupulous fidelity until lately. To the
influence ol the Prince of Kung was due tbe
appointineiit of Mr. Burlicigaine as Envov
Extraoidinary to foreign powers, and it is said
tbat be gave the mission a bearty support, and
did all in his power to make it successful.
At this time he was Prime MiuMcrof the Em
pire, which position he had held from tbe close
of tbe regency. lie did much to extend the re
sources of China aud to liberalize her policj and
place her tvn a footing with tbe civilized nations
of Europe and America. If be has been murdered
we may depend upon it that it has been because
his enlightened and progressive policy was ini
mical to the wretched barbatians who have for
sometime past been engaged in the blood v
work of massacring foreigners. Tbe Prince of
Kung probably endeavored to suppress these
barbarous manifestations, and became a victim
to his humanity and endeavors to advance his
people to the height of Christian civilization.
