NEwroier,P.eriy_Connty,_June -25.—Informa
tion has just reached this place of a horrible
affair that transpired at Falling Springs, this
9ounty, last evening. Two men—George Gibson
nd Jacob Shaffer--got into a quarrel, which re
sulted in a hand-to-hand *entil°, _Shaffer getting

this, cane to their father's aid, and threw two
large stones at Shaffer's head, fracturing his

LETTER 'FIROIR PAULI.
[Correspondence o' the Philnderphin Evening 13;ilreiln.]
PARIS, Friday, June 14th, 1867.—The first act
of the great drama called the Universal Exhibi
tion of 1867, has been played out; and although
at one moment the plot threatened to assume a
tragic aspect, the startling incident of the 6ffo
has only served at last to impart to the perform
ance that "sensational" character which is now
deemed essential to the„ interest of all action,
whether in novels or polities. - The Czar has
taken his departure, exchanging In his adieux
that fraternal embraceivith his host which was
omitted on his arrival, and declaring himself de
lighted with his visit, non-obstante Berezciwski!
lie has left behind himy too, ample- evidence of
his satisfaction, scattering orders and decorations
with an unsparing hand, and bestowing EOM
' thing like a. million of francs upon the poor of
Paris alone. That lucky raan,,M„Raimbean,._the.
-- Eqiier, -- (whom English people call Rainbow,)
and , who saved, perhaps, the lives of one or both
Emperors at the expense, not of his own nose,
but of his horse's—has not, of course, been for
gotten. Besides decorations from both sove
reigns, that gentleman has received a telegram
from the Empress of Rusi3ia, announcing the
transmission to his wife of a. diamond necklace of
the value, on dii, of half a million. How ,often
one has wished that an Emperor's horse would
just tread on one's toes, or that one Might have
the chance of knocking down somebody who was
just going to knock down. an' Emperor ! But
these things never come by looking out for them,
and M. Raimbeau himself allows that lie had no .
' Idea lie was intercepting an assassin-when he put
spurs to his horse, to keep Borezowski back.
Amongst the addresses presented to the .Czar
was one very numerously signed by American
residents in Paris, expressingon simple and manly
terms, their "sincereand profound regret that an
attempt should have been made on the life of a
sovereign who had made himself forever illustri
ous by the enfranchisement of millions of our
fellow-men." The address was Intended, I, be
to have been presented by General Dix to
the Czar in person, but it appears that etiquette
requires that when diplomacy acts .on one side it
„must do so also on the other, and .so the address
was transmitted through the Russian embassy:
The English address, eurionaly enough, was made
to assume an evangelical and almost party char
`acter, and. was handed to the Czar in person by
two low-church clergymen, who treated the Em
peror to' a discourse on religious liberty, and
ended by offering him a copy of the Bible in many
tongues, and a' Chinese Testament!
The. Czar left,as I announced, last Tuesday; but
the Xing of Prussia only leaves to-day, after the
ball last night. at the Prussian Embassy, which'
closed the first series of royal and imperial festi
vities. The next grand ceremonies. we limit for
ward to will be towards the close of the month,
when we shall stillhave amongst us, r suppose,
the Viceroyclf Egypt, who has already sailed for
Toulon, and, in addition, the Sultan and the
Emperor and Empress of Austria, but not, I fear,
the Shalt of Persia, and certainly not the celestial
Monarch. However, there will still be enough,
and more than enough, to make a grand proeeS
slew into the nave of the Palace of Industry on
the Ist of July, when the distribution of prizes is
to take place, and when Rossini's new Hymn is
to be performed, with a tremendous, accompani
ment of bells and cannon shot, at the moment the
new batch of sovereigns enter the building. The
veteran composer presented the finished score of
his composition to the Emperor Napoleon at the
Tuileries .on Monday night, and it has been put
into rehearsal immediately: The Imperial Com
mission; with their usual money-making tact,have
announced . that, as the season is now nearly' half
over; the price of gentlemen's tickets will be re
duced to that of ladies, viz., 60 francs, and that a
thousaud additional reserved seats for the cere
mony of the let July will be placed at the dispo
sal of those who now take season tickets. The
:Cominission take care to „add' by way of stimu
lant that, except official persons, season ticket
holders alone will have the right to be present.
The last enormity perpetrated by the Commission,
initle the Exhibition, is `that'of licensing an im
mense Cale Chan tant, such.us exist in the Champs.
Mystics, and where concerts go' on all the day
long; though_what that has-to do in an exhibition
"of.att and industry it is difficult to discoVer. There
is no's-denying it, however, that such estab
lishments the above are with the other-cafes
and restaurants, the great success of the Exhibi
tion; and that the American Soda Water. Fouts--
min is the greatest success of all. The admira
• tion.of all nations for the latter "institution"
amounts to enthusiasm, and a gold medal would
be voted tei it by neelarliation, if put to .universal
suffrage, The crowning number of 100,000 pay
ing visitors was reached on Whit-Monday, and
as the heat was intense, the consumption of
"drinks" was altogether exceptional. Parties
sent over by the London Working Men's Associa
tion now arrive weekly by 200 at a time. One of
the objects of greatest interest to. them in the Ex
hibitionis the specimen, now completed, of the
United States, Farmer's Residence, brought over
by the active agency of Col. Bowen, United States
Commissioner, to/whom the public, both at home
and abroad, are greatly indebted for this interest-
Mg type of American agricultural life.

Protestte the American Covernment
Against his 'Arrest—lie Claims pro.
Section as a "Passenger Undeg the
American Flag—llls If.xpectations in
lineman—Proclamation to the Pea.
pie of Vticatizn.
The following protest has been presentedl to
the American Consul in Havana by Jose L. do
Santa Anna against the treatment of his father
by Commander Roe, of the ganboat Tacony:
.7'o the Consul of the United Mates of Amer i ca zn
Ilatonu: The undersigned, son of General:•
Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. has the honor of
addressing you for the purpose of protesting
energeticalVagainst the ontrage9 that have juste
beencommitted in the ports Of Vera Crhz and
Sisal, on the person. of my father. It appears
from the documents published In this capital,
from private letters, and.from the 'verbal accounts
of passengers, that. General Santa • Anna
arrived at Vera Craw on the 3d Instant,
board the steamer - Virf*fia,
. Which
under_Amerlcan—colois;—andl - thati-- - whiln
the authorities of
-that city were. considerhag
whether he should be allowed to land or not, he
was taken by force from the Virginia. and brought
on board the United States steam gunboat Ta
cony as a prisoners The commander of said gars
boat made not only the arrest of General Santa
Anna personally, but he obligs.d the latter tare
embark aboard the VirOnla, to be earriot to
ilavana or to the United States- It ap9ears,also,
that when the Virginia touched at SW, to take
in freight, a fleet ()farmed small.boats,, said to be
in the service of Juarez, approached the steamer,
and the commanding officer, Goniez, under threat
of opening &non the steamer in emetic was
resisted, ordered fifteen armed marirsea aboard
the steamer, who declared. Santa Anna their
prisoner, and took him with Ulm.
The object of the undersignedia not to etirgoa
tize in any way whatever the capture of his
father, effected in sight of.his beer native laud by
the commander of the Tacony. It is asserted
that said commander has sent to his government
an explanation of his conduct; and, however un
justifiable It may appear, it will belwell to know
the grounds on which he has relied in the de
cision which be made.
But I cannot pass over the outrage committed
off Sisal on the person of General Santa Anna.
That gentleman had a right to rtdy upon'the pro
tection of the United StateS flag,not only because
he was a passenger aboard of an American
steamer, but also because he had been compelled
by main force tere-embark on the Virginia, and
for this reason should considered as a prisoner
of the .American Republic until his full liberty.wes,
fully restored to him. In that character he shnfid.
have been carried safe and sound to the point
where he could demand .an explanation
of the proceedings, or rather satis
faction for the wrong done him. But to allow
General Santa Anna to he taken from a United
States vessel by his natural enemies, who will
hasten to make a, sacrifice oft.im to their political
animosity, and to allow the starry flag to be in
sulted by a horde of pirates, are deeds so incredi
ble that unless the undersigned obtains a prompt
and ample reparation of these wrongs, the whole
world will suspect that said outrages have been.
connived at or premeditated' dirt of hostility to
his father
The undersigned, who liar been absent from
his native country over eleven years who has
not taken the slightest share in the,tr.tintibles that
'have afflicted it during that period,. Who has no
partiality or animosity , as regards any of the
parties there disputing for the supremacy, does
not address you, Mr. Consul, from any political ,
motive or interest, but from the noble and
legitimate sentiments of filial affection, humanity
and justice. Hence, he trusts that you will have
the goodness to forward this protest to the
government of the United States, and secure the
measures necessary for the safety and rescue of
the person of General Santa Anna.
Jost,: LOPEZ DE SANTA ANX.I.
HAVANA, Stine 20, 1867.
The annexed letter and proclamation were
written by Santa Anna aboard the Virginia, and
entrusted to a passenger to be delivered to the
editor of the Correa de la Habana, but were de
layed in delivery:
Oer-SisAL, May 31, 1867.—Esteemed Friend:—
As lamon my way to Vera Cruz, aboard the
steamer Virginia, and have no time to write at
length, I would like,neverthcless, to make known
the fact to you, as well as my having departed
from New York on the 22d inst., so that, in ease
you deem it worth while, you can announce
the news in your paper. I shall write you
from Vera Cruz by first opportunity,
and I will take care that you have all the news of
public interest for publication. I inclose you a
plain address which I- have made from shipboard
to the people of Yucatan, advising them , to be
united. Many of the officers and commanders
DOW serving udder both flags have been under my
command; and it will not be long before, they
join in my ideas of conciliation. :As I ha)>e no
time now lo write more, I renew my assurances
of the most sincere friendship; and I wish you all
happiness..

SANTA ANNA'S PROCLAMATION.
lucatecos!—Being so near to you now, on `'my
way to my native land, I hasten to present you
my salutation profoundly moved at the
contempla • n of the immense contrast between'
what we have been and what we find ourselves to
day. You will remember that in the years 1824
and 1825, I had the honor to hold in your penin
sula the highest military and civil authority, and
that I was. the recipient of friendly de
monstrations from • you that I have
nev;er been able to forget. A patriotic purpose
tMli me a year ago to the neighboring United
States is search of help to aid our brethren strug
gling so heroically against the power of the in
vader, who, in some inexplicablenner, got
control over our beautiful territory. This is not
..thelime to explain the obstacles and difficulties
that opposed my noble
,plan. But now that the
French have vanished from your territory,.the
prospect is -very much altered, and we set fresh
uneasiness and trouble among the Mexicans.
From Vera Cruz you will receive news of me.
From that point I will address'our people. Mean
while, accept my friendly protestation with the
same good will as heretofore. Give over your
hostility of brethren against , brethren. We are
all Mekicans, and it -is more reasonable that we
come to a peaceable understanding, with each
other. Let not yourselves be overcome by evil
passions. My mission Among you, brethren, is
purely one of peace and concord. At a moment
of supreme importance I crime to oiler a salutary
mediatiowto settle the discord between the mem
bers of our.. family.
YucateCos! Contribute your patriotic share in
the effort to secure a successful issue to my
wishes, which are essentially Mexican, and be
assured that if each one makes a little sacrifice
wit-44 allyet.see our idolized country enjoying a
norbrabf glory, hsnOr and prosperity.

SANTA ANNA.
. ,
plead for me wilt trpetik when' mine is cold and
silent In the dust. however, since this assembly
is so complacent that it will hear me speak, let
me tell them the short experience of a long life.
Seventeen or eighteen years ago this coun
try was approaching the brink of a fearful,
danger. .1t was. nothing leas than that it should
be exposed within the short term of my own
lifetime to dissolution and death, and that in the
place of the United States of Ameriea, which our.
forefathern had established s mv eyes• should close
npon.a dissevered republic; a slave unton, around
the GtOf of Mexico, and extending to the forty
fifth parallel of north Iptitude . west of the Missis
sippi; and if Pruviderfhe should• permit or telerate•
its flee republienorth and eastof the Mississippi. -
That tsas what was before us seventeen •or eigh
teen years ago. That was • the irrepregsible con
t.!lett. I With it were to go down , the rights of hu
man nature on the continent and throughout
the world. That, danger has been passed, and
happhy surmounted, - and its- terror -is ar
rested, and in the , place - dt it the people of the
-United - States - have - before - thems-a-proSpettlifti
most glorioue that everdawned won any nation
on the globe-;a . prospect of one• whole mac&
people, without a single shave, and• every man in
it enjetying a voice and a participation in the go
vernment of hat nation extending from the •
Atlantic to. th Pacific Ocean, approaching even
the shores of C a and Japan, and reaching from
the Gulf of 3fe oto the North Pofe. That is the
proopeet upon. which I congratulate the re
presentatives , the people of Con

your courtesy.. I hope' I have not abused your
confidence; but let me say to you this: If you will
ever give me liberty to ,peak and invite me to
speak, I will speak what I think and What I feel,
and not fear saying what Itnav Imagine you do
not think %I. feel as I, do. Si), presenting my
apoleglee for this frankness, I trust we shall
heres er be better acquainted, and as they have,
to ted me south of the Potomac the utmost
gedom of utterance,,l nest thtsSame liberty will .
be extended to me north of it.
The President then spoke as follows:: Gentle
men—ln rising to part with you and to bid you
adieu, it is not for the purpose of making an ad
dregs, and so far as political opinions or princi
ples are concerned it would not be proper tor me,
even were I inclined to speak, to !vier to them
on this occasion; but I have no disposition to
Make a speech now. lam before von under cir
cumstances which are very:A:ratifying to me, and
.whiCh I trust and hope, will excite no party acris .
molly. lam proud to meet so Many of my
fellev,•-eitizens and exchange the ordinary civili
ties ;and salutations which should always ex
ist between the government and the people.
In bidding you farewell, however, I must be
permitted to make one single remark, and I trust
it will not awaken any feelings of Politidal as
perity. We know that there have been and are
now party differences; and wheu we come to
consider and to ascertain what these are, we find
upon examination that they rest more, upon
prejedice than upon a correct understanding and
appreciation of each other's principles and con
duct. The fact must not and cannot be disguised
that the basis upon which this prejudice rests,,,
and upon which this feeling is founded is some
misapprehension or misunderstanding' of each
other's principles and conduct. All that is
wanted to make us better friends is to know more
of each other, and if we are brought into
contact and made .to understand 'cash
other, the differences, the sharp corners, the
acute angles and the right angles in all these
things which beget acrimony, and on which hate
and evil rest, could be smoothed or by the fric
tion of contact, and we should entertain kindly
feelings toward each other. I feel sure that a
new era of good will is being commenced, and
that our people, North and South, East and West,
begin to look for a restoration of peace. Yes,
the bow of peace - has been set in the clouds, and
God grant that the time is not 'far distant when
we can all stand around the altar of our com
mon' country, and, with upturned faces, join
in one fraternal embrace, and swear that our
gods and our altars shall sink in the dust to
gether, but. that the Constitution and the Union
shall endure forever. If, in being in your midst
to-day, I know myself and understand nsy. own
feelings, I have, none other than those which
seek to promote and defend the best interests. It
is true 1 am not extremely old, but the beqt ener
gies of my life, and best efforts of my little-intel
lect have been devoted to the interests of the
great-mass-of my - countrymen. --- I may certainly
have been now and then mistaken, but - to err is

erred, it has been an error of the head
and not of the heart. No ! All of my efforts,
in every pox tion• I have ever,
some of them have been trying and perilous—
have been directed to what I thought to be right.
My all—my pecuniary and political life and
liberty thettiseiveshave been imperiled for the
preservation of the Union; but when the clouds
lowered and - the storm threatened and beat
around me I kept -before me, as my polar star,
my conscientious conviction, the public good
as my' only elm, and the constitution of my
country as my guide. . It is one of the
events of my. hie to have been in Now Eng
land at this period, and to have received
the kindness I -have done, and ,so long ,as this
heart beats and sends forth its pulsations to the
extremities, so long will these manifestations of
kindness and regard be remembered. I thank
you, Mr. Speaker and through you the people
of- the State of ' Connecticut, for the cordial
welcome you have tendered me.

hotel, where dinner-,was partaken of. Several
foolish mistakes were made here by the persons

Llleged Fraaidufent Issue of Nearly
641000,000 of, City Notes by the City
Treasurer and Comptroller--The
Mayor's Opinion on the question of
Repudiation, " ' --
[From Tmday'V IP. t. Herald.)
Nrw ORLEM , IB, June 2tS. 1867 11 o'clock. P'.. M.
—There is considerable 'sensation in business
circles here to-day in consequence of an , expo
sure by Mayor Heath, in his message to the Com
mon:Conneil yesterday,, of an alleged fraudulent
Issue; wkthout authorization, of city notes to the.
amounVel $1,232;772 since the date of Augustl,
1866, by Joseph Hernandez, City Treasurer,
and P. G. Mahan, Comptroller. Two issueff, one
of *ceo,pflo and one of *400,000, together with an
over-iss,W of new notes in place of worn-out cur
rent to the amount of $24732, appear ou the
exhi . s of the City Treasurer, and. it is claimed:
this e ening, on competent authority, that the
over-issues will amount in total to the enormous
figure of *3,742,926. The matter Is 'under hives
tigatiou by the Common Council. and will most
likely end in the repudiation by the city of the ,
illegal issue and the removal ..of the officers
engaged in it.
The follo3ving la the opinion of Mayor Heath .
upon _the question of repudiation : "With this ex
eeedingly large volume of paper money thrOwn
upon the market; in addition to that already is
sued by the city, it isnot hard to account for the
great depreciation which has, taken place
in the value of city paper, and cannot help
shaking the confidence of the public in it. If
it . was sanctioned officially or otherwise
by the joint committees, they, too, far ex
ceeded their powers, and must be viewed as
equally culpable with the officers already named.
and 1 look to the • Council to make imme
diate examination of this matter, and to take
speedy measures for the removal of the parties
guilty of perpetrating this fraud upon the corpo
ration and the community. For the further and
full protection of the Treasury of the city, It is
also necessary that all officers of the city should
be instructed not to receive,any of the money in
question in payment of sums due the city. The
same having been issued without authority, and
by irresponsible persons, is of no .value in law,
and the city can never legally be made liable for
it. No authority having ever been vested in the
present Treasurer and Comptroller to
Issue " any . new notes of this city,.
these illegal notes can 'be readily dis
tinguished by the signatures of themselves or .
their deputies. It is to my personal knowledge
that, besides the large amount of nearly a million
and a quarter of dollars already illegally issued,
the Treasurer and Comptroller are at the present.
time engaged in making more of this money; and
even now we have nothing to guide us as to the
amount actually put into circulation except the
statements of the Treasurer himself, and it is also
necessary that you should take immediate steps
to stop any further issue of new city notes."
The general opinion is that the Common Coun
cil will vote to render legal the issue already in
existence, though their power to legalize it is
doubtful. In the meantime, to-day, city notes'
have depreciated two and one-half per cent., and
many parties refuse to take them at•all in pay
meat in business transactions.

San Luis Potosi to the 11th inst.
The trial of Mnxliiiiliau was to commence on
that day. The counsel for Maximilian had ar
rived, and derfauided one month's time to pre

Berriolabal and other prominent men still ex
press the opinion that Maximilian and his lead

without, exception, favor the same policy, but ad
vocate the release of a portion of the so-called
traitors. • . .
Foreigners only are found to plead for Maxi

use all influence to save him ; but the govern
ment appears determined to let the council act
freely, and carry out the sentence, whatever it
may be.
We have advices from the capital to the . 2d

Diaz's army, numbering thirty thousand troops,
from Queretaro, which arrived on the 20th ult.,
had taken place.
Diaz writes to - Juarez that he will' occupy
the city within one week, but did not think it

In political circles the removal of, the Emperor
Maxmillan to the city of 'Mexico is considered as
a fresh proof that the republicans will respect his
life. It is slipposed that the unfortunatesovereign
will be conducted-from the capital to Vera , Cruz,
whence he may be embarked for the United
States or for Europe. The Juarist Government
has asked fot a ransom, but wo are not aware
that any negotiations respecting the sum have
been opened. That question is besideS quite a
secondary one in presence of the, Interest which ,
Austria and France must feel that the. Emperor
Maximilian's life should ije spared.
Lu Liberg of Paris believes that thq, projected
journey of. the Emperor Francis Joseph to Paris
has become vciy probleniatical, in consequence
of the events which have recently occurred in
Mexico. There is no doubt, that his Apostolic
Majesty takes the -warmest interest In august
brother, and- he will - make every effort to ins
-cite him from the - rancor of the Juarist party;
but at' the'preesnt moment it Is arinost certain
that Maximilian will return in, safety to Europe,
