TEE REBELLION IN PARIS.
Debuts the many terrible dangers and cala
mities which have recently threatened Paria,
a considerable portion of her citizens are now
engaged in invoking new horrors. Instead of
welcoming peace they are generating a san
guinary civil war, and provoking the destruc
tion of the remnants of prosperity which
BUivive the Biege. The enormities of the old
revolution are repeated; brutal and unreason
ing fanaticism rules the hour; generals
of ,the French army are mas
Bacred by the Parisian mobs, which defy
the Government established by the
national will of Franoe. No parallel for such
an extraordinary demonstration can be found
in American history, but the nearest approach
to it is furnished by the draft riot in New
York in 18G3. The vile, villainous, ignorant,
desperate, prejudiced, and unprincipled ele
ments which were embodiod in that ebullition
of the worst ingredients of the Democracy of
New York city bear a decided resemblance to
he Parisian rioters of to-day; but in justice
to the latter, it should be acknowledged that
they have in their ranks some better men
than the miscreants of Gotham. Both de
monstrations. however, display intense
ignorance of the obligations of citizenship,
the most selfish disregard of the general wel-
ware, and close alliance with the criminal
enemies of society, who, as idle vagabonds,
thieves, cutthroats, convicts, and desperadoes,
cherish deadly hostility at all times to every
form of social order.
One of the pretexts for the late uprising is
an allegation that the present Government
will strive to re-establish a monarchy; and this
allegation has induced some well-disposed
Parisians to look with comparative favor upon
the rebellious movement, and also furnished
the National Guard with an excuse for frater
nizing with the mob. M. Thiers' answer to this
charge, however, is that Buch revolts constitute
the greatest possible danger to the republio,
and that if they are oontinued they will ne
cessarily destroy republicanism; and this
seems the trne common-sense view of the
situation. The lied Republicanism of Paris,
like the Dead Rabbit Democracy of New York,
is incompatible with permanent and just
popular rule; and the French Government
will only discharge an imperative duty if it
literally fulfils its avowed intention to enforce
peace and maintain order at all hazards.
The inaugural speech of M. Thiers, which
was published some days ago in Tax Tele
graph, is replete with wis iom. He earnestly
beseeched his countrymen to address all their
energies, for the present, to the paramount
task of restoring order, repairing the waste
of the war, reorganizing industry, building
bridges, and relieving France from the pre
sence of the enemy; and promised that when
this was done, he would use his best energies
to secure a fair test of publio opinion in re
gard to the character of the future National
Government. Unless there are won
derfully good grounds for suspecting
the good faith of M. Thiers, the course he
thus marked out should, in view of the fact
that his Cabinet is composed of men repre
senting all the prominent parties, seoure the
temporary confidence of all good citizens.
And, under the circumstances, the opposition
manifested by the Parisian outbreak forces
an issue between the domination of a Parisian
mob and the will of forty millions of French
men, in which the latter should strive to gain
not merely a transient victory, butt 3 estab
lish forever a system under which Paris would
cease to rule France.
GENERAL CHARLES M. PREVOST.
A speciax, despatch from Washington fore
shadows the appointment of General Charles
M. Prevost as Collector of the port of Phila
delphia to suoceed lion. Henry D. Moore.
The appointment of General Prevost will be
an attempt on the part of the President to
unite the contending faotions of the Republi
can party, and it should do so. Whether the
politicians are satisfied or not, however, the
public at large are likely to be, as the prospec
tive Collector has many qualifications for the
position, and he will undoubtedly administer
the affairs of the Custom House in a satisfac
tory manner. He stands very high in this
community as a business man and a gentle
man, and he has had several years experi
enoe as a Deputy Collector, which has ini
tiated him thoroughly into all the details of
Custom House business. The President could
scarcely make a better appointment or one
that will ,give more general satisfaction.
General Prevost, besides being an estimable
private citizen and a well-trained business
man, has a first-rate war record. He entered
the service as colonel of the 118th Pennsyl
vania Regiment, which was recruited by the
Corn Exchange to the full standard in one
month, and was mustered into service on
August 3, 18C2. At the battle of Antietam he
was in the reserve, but on September 20,
18C2, while proceeding to Sheppardstown,
West Virginia, his regiment was subjected to
g galling fire, and Colonel Prevost, while car
rying the oolors to the front to check a mo
mentary wavering of his men, was severely
wounded and was carried from the field, In
this engagement 282 men out of 800 were
killed, wounded, or missing. Oa March 13,
18C5, Colonel Trevostwia breveted brigadier
general for his gallantry in this engagement.
1I1E PUBLIC BUILDINOS.
The opponents of the Penn Square site for
the publio buildings have snoceeded in bring
ing before the Legislature a variety of pro
jects, all of which are ostensibly aimed at the
plan for placing the buildings at the intersec
tion of Broad and Market Btreets, but which
re in reality intended to defeat the will of
the people of Philadelphia as expressed at the
election in October last, and to prevent the
publio buildings from being removed from
their present location. This subject has been
bo thoroughly disoussed xn all its bearings
that the citizens of Philadelphia certainly
cannot be beguiled into believing that out
raged virtue inspired the clamor against
the so-called "intersection job"," and it
will be an insult to the people
of Philadelphia if the Legislature
attempts to interfere in behalf of a ring of
property-holders on Fifth and Sixth and
Chesnut and Walnut streets, after the
emphatio expression of .publio opinion given
last October. The Legislature adopted the
proper method of settling the controversy
with regard to the site for the new buildings,
which every citizen acknowleges to be neces
sary, by ordering a popular vote. The vote
was taken, and the Washington Square people
found themselves very decidedly in the
minority. Instead of submitting, as they were
bound in honor to do, they immediately
started a new issue, and after embarrassing the
commissioners as much as possible by
judicial proceedings, they have now
begun a grand lobbying game at
Harrisbnrg, and with the half-a-dozen or
more bills which pliant members of the Legis
lature are advocating, they hope by hook or
by crook to either retain the publio offices in
the present shanties, or to procure the ereo
Hon of the new buildings upon the site which
has been so emphatically rejected by the citi
zens of Philadelphia. It is certainly laugh
able to find those who roared with indigna
tion over the prospective cost of a handsome
architectural pile at the intersection of Broad
and Market streets advocating the purchase
of additional ground in order to allow the
Penn Squares to remain vacant. This is eco
nomy ith a vengeance, and the citizens of
Philadelphia should resolutely protest
against the purchase of any additional terri
tory either from the Pennsylvania Railroad
or from private individuals, when there is
an ample sufficiency for all the purposes of
the new municipal buildings already in pos
session of the city. The Penn Squares con
tain all the ground, and more, than is neoes-
sary for the accommodation of all the publio
buildings Philadelphia will need for half a
dozen generations, and it will be time enough
to buy more land when the structures which
it is proposed to put up become too crowded
for comfort. This is a matter which the peo
ple of the year of our Lord 2071 can attend to
for themselves muoh better than we can at
tend to it for them. The people of the pre
sent generation have declared emphatically, by
their votes at a general election, after a tho
rough and exhaustive discussion of the sub
ject, that the publio buildings shall be placed
upon the Penn Squares, and it will be a gross
outrage if the Legislature attempts to inter
fere further in the matter otherwise than t
aid in carrying out the will of the majority as
expressed last October.
The property-holders about Washington
and Independence Squares bad a perfect right
to advocate their favorite sites and to present
their side of the question to the publio in the
most favorable m anner they were able, but
after the question was decided by a popular
vote, it was impudent, to say the least of it, to
carry on the controversy any longer. Their
present performances are not only impudent
but scandalous in the highest degree, and
Philadelphia will be the laughing-stock of the
nation if a little ring of men who are engaged
in the business of letting offices are able to
defeat the Penn Square project after all, and
to prooure the erection of the new publio
buildings upon the site which a majority of
the voters have rejected. All the Legislature
has to do now is to mind its own business
and to allow the people of Philadelphia
to mind theirs. If there is no interference,
the probabilities are that we will have a City
Hall in a few years that will be a credit to
the city, whereas if the Legislature passes
any of the bills now before it, confusion will
only be worse confounded, and the contro
versy will be indefinitely prolonged without
benefit to anybody. The people of Philadel
phia certainly will not sub aait to have them
selves overridden in an affair of this kind for
the benefit of a small number of persons who
are afraid that their property will be less
valuable if the courts and municipal offices
are removed from their present location; and
as the Penn Square site has been chosen, so
will it certainly be used, in spite of the
Chinese thunder with which the anti-Penn
Squareites have been attempting to terrify
their adversaries.
OBITUARY.
General Clement Vheniaa.
General Clement Thomas, whose life was
sacrificed by the red-banded insurgents ia Paris
on Saturday, hai taken a prominent part in the
tumultuou- history of France. He was born at
Libourne in the year 1812, and, after receiving
it good education in Paris, entered the military
service as a volunteer, atta'nlog to the rank of
quartermaster in the 9th Cuirassiers. For tak
lng part in tbe Luneville conspiracy of 1835 he
was tried during the month of April of the same
year, and senteuced to a long term of Imprison
ment. With M. Gainard and several others,
however, he succeeded in escaping from
St. Pelagie prison and taking refuge in
EDglacd. Here he remained until the pro
clamation of the amnesty, when he returned to
France and engaged In journalism, being at
tached to the editorial staff of the National
newspaper. After the revolution of February,
1848, he obtained a Government office in the
Department of Glronde, where he was elected a
representative to the Constituent Assembly.
Returning to Paris In the Interval, he was chosen
the colonel of the 2d Legion of the National
Guard, and for his conduct during tbe affair of
May 15 was promoted o the rank of general,
and appointed commander-la-cnief cf the
National Guards of the capital, in
place Ot M. do CourUis. Soon after,
however, bis speech in the Assembly on
the tubj-ct of the Cross of the Legion
of nonor, which he designated a bauble of
vanity, bn u:ht h'm into disfavor, and he wm
fore d to relinquish his command, to General
CI angarnler. He remained to tbe Constituent
Aesemb'y, voting with the moderate democrats,
until t e election of Louis Napoleon Bonaparto
as P isldent, when be joined the opposition
rank. A candidate for re-election, be was
driven into private life by defeat, bat continued
to oppose Napoleon actively, especially after
the re-ei-tabllshment of the Empire. He took
no part In the struggle with Prussia
until November last, whea he was appointed by
the Government of Defence commander-in-chief
of the National Guard, a position which he held
until February 15 following, when he was suc
ceeded, on resigning, by General Vlnoy. Daring
the period of his command, however, he docs
not appear to have been very active. On Satur
day morning he was captured by the Com
munist insurgents in the capital, and in the
evening put to death after a short and summary
trial. He has become the first important vic
tim of the infamous conspiracy against law and
order which has Paris fairly In its grip, but his
innocent blood will assuredly be tally avenged.
Ex- birr JaMlce Ellla I,evrU, M. O
Ellis Lewis, a most able jurist of this State,
and at one time Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, died at his residence
in West Philadelphia yesterday, la his seventy
fourth year. He was born in Lewlsburg, York
county, Pa., May 10th, 1798. He commenced
lite as a printer, but afterwards studied law, and
was admitted to the bar in 1823. After attaining
considerable practice and distinction, he was
appointed to the position of Deputy Attorney
General in 1824, and in 1832 he was elected to the
State Legislature. In January, 1833, he was
appointed Attorney-General of the State of
Pennsylvania; and In October, 1833, Presiding
Judge of tbe Eighth Judicial district. In
January, 1843. he was appointed Presiding
Judge of the Second Judicial district
In 1851 he was elected, under the
new law maklDg the judges elective,
to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. In De
cember, 1854, he became Chief Justice of that
Court, and was unanimously renominated by
the Democratic Convention for re-election in
1857, but declined, and retired to private life.
In 1854 be was appointed one of the com mis
c-loners to revise the criminal code of Pennayl
vanla. Ills acquaintance with medical juris
prudence gained for him tbe honorary degree of
M. D. from the Philadelphia Co' lege
of Medicine. He also received the
degree of LL. D. from the Transylvania Unlver-
sltv and from JeWerson Cohege. The opinions
of Judge Lewis have frequently been cited with
approval by the most eminent writers upon
jurisprudence. He was. the author of an
"Abridgment of the Criminal Lar of the United
Slates," and he frequently contributed to the
periodical literature of the day.
Judge Lewis lived in retirement in West
Philadelphia for many years. His health had
been declining for some time past, and his death
was not unexpected.
