No reason is assigned for the rash act. Mrs. Bosche, who was severely bnrned by an explosion of coal oil at her residence, on Allegheny avenue, near Richmond street, on the 10th instant, died of her injuries about C o'clock last evening. William M. Bnnn, Register of Wills of this city, who was charged by Charles Ilart uacht with embezzlement and perjury, was called Bp before Alderman Devitt, on Satur day afternoon, for a final hearing. Two wit nesses were examined, but nothing was elicited that had any bearing upon the sub ject at issue. The defendant was discharged, the Alderman deciding that no case had been made ont against him. The prosecutor then swore ont a warrant charging Mr. Bunn with rubornation of perjury, alleging that he had instructed certain witnesses to swear to false statements during the Legislative oontest be tween Bunn and Witham. On this charge the defendant was also discharged. On Saturday afternoon a meeting of the bar was held in the Supreme Court Boom, for the purpose of taking action in regard to the recent report to the Legislature by the Com missioners to revise the Civil Code of tho State. There was a large attendanoe. Hon. Isaao nazlehurst presided. A series of reso lutions were adopted, among other things providing for the appointment of a committee of seventeen to examine and consider the re vised statutes submitted to the Legislature by the Commissioners, and, if in their judg ment it shall be expedient, to prepare a me morial to the Legislature respecting them. The resolutions were adopted, and the fol lowing named announced as the committee: Henry Wharton, George D. Budd, Amos Briggs, Samuel Dickson, James T. Mitchell, James E. Go wan, John G.

This is the twenty-seventh day out of the Tennessee, and no tidings of her where abouts. It has been decided by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that the Russian and German missions shall be advanced to the first-class. During a fight at Auburndale, Massachu setts, on Saturday, a combatant was knocked npon a railroad track, and, a train dashing by an instant afterwards, he was killed. President Grant, upon being interrogated as to his opinion relative to the safety of the Tennessee, replied that he did not expeot to hear from that vessel nntil the 10th inst. The steamboat Judge Wheeler exploded her boilers, burned up, and sunk yesterday morning, on the Mississippi river, near Bell's landing, forty miles above Yicksburg, and several persons were killed and drowned. The San Franoisco internal revenue officers made a raid npon the Chinese quar ters of that city on Friday night, and cap tured fourteen unlicensed cigar makers, who pursued their avocation solely in the night time. Foreign Affalra. The Paris theatres will open on Wednes day. Great quantities of food are now on their way to France from England and Ame rica. The routes to Paris are all open, and travel has been resumed. There has been a great fall in the prices of provisions at Paris. A violent gale has just occurred on the English coast, causing considerable loss to chipping. The veritable plague has broken out at Brest among the cattle intended for the relief of Paris. The Government at Paris has abrogated the requisition decrees of the delegate Gov ernment at Bordeaux. A Madrid journal says that in the election for the Cortes in the provinces only six oppo sitionists have been elected. A decree has been issued by the Bordeaux Government which immediately calls out the military class of 1871. Captains of French men-of-war at Havre have applied for permission to watch and pursue German vessels during the armistice. A Brussels despatch says that the result of the elections in fifty-four departments foots np 370 Bonapartists and Orleanists and 80 Republicans. In consequence of the interruption of diplomatic relations, the Italian consul at Tunis has confided the subjects of Italy to the protection of the Austrian Consul. - The British Government, it is rumored, has advised Prussia to arbitrate the terms of peaoe with France, in order to secure the collective guarantee of the great powers of Europe. The reports about the French elections are somewhat contradictory, yet, from what can be gleaned from the several reports, it A- would appear as though the victory is on the Bide of the conservatives. FRANCE. Proclamation of the ex-JKmperor Napoleon. London, Feb. 12. The following is a pro clamation addressed by the ex-Emperor Na poleon to the electors of France: "Wrx,HELMBHOHE, Feb. 8, 1871. Betrayed by fortune, J have kept, since my captivity, a profound silence, which is misfortune's mourning. As long as the armies confronted each other I abstained from any step or word capable of causing party dissensions, but I can no longer remain silent before my coun try's disasters without appearing insensible to its sufferings. "When I was made a prisoner I could not treat for peace, because my resolutions would appear to nave been dictated by personal con siderations. I left the Resent to decide whether it was to the interest of the nation to continue the struggle. Notwithstanding unparalleled reverses, i ranee was unsubdued, her strongholds unreduced, few departments invaded, and Paris in a state of defense. "The extent of her misfortunes might pos sibly have been limited, but while attention was directed to her enemies an insurrection arose at Paris. The seat of the Represents Uvea was violated, the safety of the Empress was threatened, and the Empire, whioh had been three times acclaimed by the people, was overthrown and abandoned. Stilling my nresentiments. I exolaimed, What matter my dynasty if the country is save ? Instead of protesting against uie violation oi mv rights I hoped for the success of the de fense, and admired the patriotic devotion of the children or ranee. "Now. when the struggle is suspended and all reasonable chance of victory has disap peared, it is time to call to account the usurp ers for bloodshed and ruin and squandered resources. It is impossible to abandon the destinies of France to an unauthorized gov ernment, which was left no authority ema nating from universal suffrage. Order, con fidence, and a solid peace are only reasonable. The people are consulted respecting the Gov ernment most capable of repairing the disas ters to the country. "It is essential that France should be united in her wishes. For myself, bruised by injustice and bitter deoeption, I do not know nor claim my repeatedly confirmed rights. There is no room for personal ambition, but until the people are regularly assembled and express tbeir will it is my duty to say that all acts are illegitimate. There is only one Gov ernment in which resides the national 'sove reignty able to heal the wound; to bring hope to firesides, to reopen the profaned churches for prayer, and to restore industry, concord, and peace." A HORRIBLE DEATH. A (Tlna'a II end Cut Off. Tbe Huntingdon Journal says: Ou Friday Inst the moet horrible death that it has ever been our lot to record occurred at North Point, Bedford county, at the "Old Scott" colliery, worked by Richard Langdon, Esq., of this place. Philip Chamberlain was ascending the shaft la the car, and It is supposed that his head struk tbe frame in which the car works, and his neck caught upon a pin. Bis head was instantly torn from his body and remained transfixed to tbe pin, while the headless body fell to the bot tom of the shaft, breaking both legs and one of his arms. When the head was discovered It was fast on the plB, wiih eyes wide open, staring apparently at those who gathered around; and the man whose duty it was to attend below was paralyzed when he discovered a headless body lying before him. It was the most shocking and terrible accident which has ever occurred in that section, and has cast a horror over the entire coal region. Chamberlain was an excel lent young man, and was loved and respected by all who knew him. The Singer Sewing Machine Company are about erecting a new factory at Elizabetbport, at a cost of $2,000,000. The late David Sears, of Boston, left by his will the sum of 15,000,000 to his children and grandchildren. A. J. Butler, who murdered his wife In April last, was found guilty of manslaughter by a Toledo jury on Thursday. Seals are plentiful on the coast of Sitka, but owing to the prohibitory regulations against their being brought to San Francisco, the Ilud son's Bay Company reap all the benefit.
