    flic Emperor’s l'W«» /
--It’orrrTondcnco «»■« «£'
Pahis, Angus! 2flth, lkb..—Ofe the.lotV of the
present month was the great national festiviil .of
llic French Empire— Iho/ete deWjEinjferevr. Jt is
surprising that the mass of-the people are almost
totally Ignorant of the moaning of the holiday.
They know it to he a day of public l'caetlng and
general nmnsement, and care very little for the
eanse. The “Vdit Jminuil," however, supplied
tie with the necessary information.
Tlie Emperor Napoleon being requested, to
choose a patron saint for his newly-cstabliehed
empire, gave the Virgin Mary preference, and
’ consequently the’Assumption, or St. Mary’s day,
is the national anniversary of the Napoleonic
dynasty.
On the loth of August, 18(17, tlie festivities,
illuminations and .fireworks were intcndkl
to surpass nil the preceding ones in splendor,
on account of the Exposition with its (hun
dred thousand visitors. This intention was
fulfilled to the letter. The streets were thronged
with pedestrians and vehicles. All the houses
were decorated with tinge, and many of the
richer ones adorned with wreaths and flowers.
The theatres were opened, and free admission
given to the public. The devout filled the
churches, whose bells were continually tolling.
With a nonchalance that would create horror iu
England luuiiu America, the Parisians leave the
Mass for tlie theatre, and..nice versa. Wo profited
by die opportunity; anebentered the Church of.
the Madeleine.. .This edifice has . the Athenian
Parthenon for its model, and both from without
and within, has far more the appearance of a
Grecian temple, than that of. a Roman Catholic
church, ft was ornamented in a style entirely ap
propriate to the architecture. We were aroused
from our contemplation Of its majestic beauty
bv the sonorous peals of its organ, and the im
posing solemnity of its choirs, as they thundered
forth the ‘‘Te Deum Laudamus.” We left this
magnificent scene for anothor,. contrasting
strangely with it, the Troeadero.
The Troeadero is one of tlie good effects of the
Exposition. Hardly six months ago, it was a
rough,, sandy hill, where the dregs of the Paris
population had chosen their habitation. To-day
it is one of tbe’fincst monuments of the capital.
It commands the view of the entire city, the Ex
position lying at its feet. With the latter it is
connected by abroad stone step which leads to
the Pont de Jena. From the top of these steps
wc took our view of the Exhibition. Never had
its an* mile appeared so enchanting as on that
day. It seemed some fairy palaeft suddenly
sprung up from the ground, so gracefully and
elegantly had it been ornamented for the occasion.
The Troeadero itself was a motley of the grotesque
feature only presented by French fairs and
holidays. There is a gigantic swing filled with
men, women and children. By its side is a
small stand of cakes and lemonades. Next
to it is a show. This is followed by
a panorama. That again has a
ball-room, or rather a ball Bhanty, for its neigh
bor. The soldiers’ theatres are at the two ex
tremities of the ground. Amid thundering ap
plause ten 7.ouaves are about to defeat a hundred
Arabs. All French dialects are spoken at the
name time. In the hard Gascon one calls the at
tention of the economical portions of the public
to his cheap matches. Another, in the tongue of
Bretagne, explains the wonderful natural genius
of his dog. A third, in pure Parisian, reminds
ky-standers and by-passers that a rare somnam- ■
buie was behind the scene, and could, be seen
and heard ' for the not too extravagant sum
«f 'three sous. This is accompanied by
the ringing of the bells, and the barking of dogs,
passing description. As the scene became too
exciting we left it and entered the quiet Avenue
d’Eylan. The clouds, which some time since as
sumed a threatening aspect, now burst into a
heavy shower. After it had subsided we passed
-along the Avenue de rimperatrjsti} and soon ar
rived at the Arc de Triomphc, wbipic the fireworks
were to be set off. Last year these were attended
by several fatal accidents on account of the im
mense numbers being crowded into a very limited.
apace. This year, therefore, the I’refet de hi
Stine chose the Arc de Triomphc, on account
•f the extensive tract of free ground
it affords. The result justified his measures; no
disturbance of any kind was heard of. After
the fireworks, which were Unusually splendid,
we returned to the Troeadero. It was charm
ingly illuminated. An Egyptian temple occupied
the centre ground. The broad stone steps lead
ing to the bridge were lined on both sides with
illuminated colored glass in red, white and blue.
The Exhibition itself presented an interesting
appearance, with its blue electric lights waving
gracefully in tho air. We descended the Trocn
derd, and walked alOßg the Seine river. Here on
both sides those celebrated buildings, collected
together in such numbers as in no other place
of the world, were all agreeably illumi
nated. The Champß Elysces, on the other
side of the river, had all its avenues
lined with colored lights. Tlie Spanish and Prus
sian embassies were illuminated, following the
example ef the neighboring edifices, the Valais
•lit Cuinstil d'V.tat and the Institute. Even tho
Grand Academy, the known opposition body to
the Emperor,has done its best nottobe surpassed
the others. Speaking of lights and tho
Academy, an anecdote inadvertently presents
itself to my mind: how Jules Favre became a
member of that body ? A thoroughly royalist in
stitution elect one so ,renowned for his revolu
tionary ideas! The affair long embarrassed
the Parisian literary world. The reason was
simple. Jules Favre and the Abbe Gratry
were both candidates- for two different
vacant seats. The friends of the former were not
sufficiently strong to secure his election, jet still
strong enough to make the admission of Gratry
doubtful. So a compromise was proposed by the
partisans of the latter, and accepted by those of
the tormer. The words of the compromise were:
“Passer, nous notre Gratry, et nous vous passe
rone votre Jules Favre.” So Jules Favre be-
came academician. I.caving the Aeiulemy, the
Esplanade des Invulides next attracts our atten
tion. It preseufed a superb appearance, which
vras yet heightened by the effect of the Jardin des
Tuileriee, which seemed to be a sea of lire from
across the river. '
Crossing the Seine, tlio tower of tlie church
fit, Germain dcs Auxerrohs first met our view.
Its &ay rUuminnUOnJed us almost to forget tlmt
it wae from there that the signal of the terrible
massacre in the memorable St. Bartholomew's
night waß given. Even the old tower in ruins,
St. Jacques do la Boucherle was dressed up for
the occasion. It looked, however, very much
like a forced smile. The Notre Dame only stood
gloomy and dark amid the surrounding hilarity.
All Baris seemed more or less to have had a pas
sion for colored lights, and its appearance will be
remembered for a long while. Since its institu
tion ihtfiir de N:,„i»:,eur has never had a more
brilliant celebration. Isaac 1,. Jti. i:,

Mind Dollars Moivn,
[From the Hocton I'o.-t, yt l
The Blue Ilill Bank of .Milton Lower Mills
was entered yesterday about noon by three
men, who assaulted and gagged the cashier
and then rilled the bank of all the cash on
hand and a large quantity of bunds. The
robbery, in its conception and execution was
one of the most daring, as well ns successful
ever perpetrated. The neighboring eommu
gity were justly thrown into a state of great
excitement by the uncommon event, and used
every exertion aider the occurrence to bring
the bolt!'.highway men to grief. The cir
cumstances of the affair are that three
men th a light buggy with top turned
down, driving a bay horse, were observed by
the citizens’ of Milton. yesterday morning,
driving twice around the village, and were
seen to pass and repass the Blue Hill Bank
three or lour times. ■ These actions, how
ever, did not excite any suspicion, and at
last the vehicle stopped in front of the build
ing fa rather old two-story building situated
at the. summit of the hill, and in the very
heart of tlie village), and the trio alighted and
proceeded.together up a llight of stairs to tlie
back-room. Mr. llobcrt F. .Tolman, the
assistant cashier,-had just left the building
to go into his house, the next door, when
the party entered. Mr. E. J. Bispham,
the casnier, was left alone in the
bank, and, as he relates the story, was stand
ing behind the counter when the first to enter
came up to him and presented a ten-dollar
bill through the aperature in the screen, and
requested Mr. Bispham to give hint small
bills in exchange. While Mr. Bispham was
in the act of making change, another of the
party suddenly opened the door at tho end of
the counter, and, stepping in, presented a pis
tol at his head. At the instant JMr. Bispham
stamped on the lloor and made an outcry to
raise an alarm. The moment he stamped,
the fellow who. .presented the pistol struck
Mr. Bispham a heavy blow in the left teflipie
felling hint to the lloor and rendering him
for ' the moment unconscious. The
olow was struck with the butt of the
pistol. When down, a second man then
sprang upon Mr. Bispham and they pre
vented’the further outcries of their victim by
placing a large gag in his mouth, placing
handcuffs on his Wrists, which they locked,
anti tyiDg his legs securely together with
pieces of rope which they had brought with
them. While two of the'rufliaus were busied
with this the third rifled the cash drawer and
the vauUs. The amount of cash taken in'
both places was about $lO,OllO. A small tin
trunk containing special deposits consisting
of United States bonds and securities belong
ing to different parties who had placed them
there for safe-keeping, the correct value of
which it will be impossible for the present
to estimate, was also taken. This trunk
they placed in a small black traveling bag
or valise""they had with them and left
the banking-room, locking the door after
them as they passed out. The outcry of Mr.
Bispham was heard by 'Mrs. Tolman, who
told her husband to hurry' back to the bank,
as something was wrong. A boy standing in
the doorway of the grocery opposite also
beard the cry for help, and notified the in
mates, two men, who rushed across the road
to see what was the matter. Otic of them,
thinking there was no cause for alarm, |urned
back; but the other pursued his way up into ,
the bank building, when be met the robbers
descending the stairs. The last one locked
the door behind him, and remarked as he
observed the stranger coming up 1 the
stairs, that it was a “d slim bank
that can’t change a ten-dollar note.’’
The party then rather hurriedly trot
into their buggy and drove off. The
citizen went to the door at the head of the.
stairs and found it locked, and at the same
time heard a groan or some noise of distress
inside. He immediately burst a window sash
through near at hand, and got out upon a
piazza, and looking in a window saw Mr.
Bispham lying upon the floor. He called for
other assistance, and the room was entered
and Mr. Bispham was released from his pain
ful situation. A file had to be procured be
fore the handcuffs could be taken off. The
cashier was found to have been but slightly
injured, and was able to walk to his house,
where he received medical attention. His Up
was cut somewhat by the rogues while forcing
the gag into his mouth, and his temples were
bruised considerably by the blows, and the
subsequent rough handling. The assault and
robbery were but the work of a moment, and
in the haste of the robbers to. depart, they left
all the valuable papers of the bank, which
were within their reach. After leaving the
bank the parties drove ofi’ very hastily towards
Iloxbury, and many of the citizens of the
place harnessed up and went- after them in
hot pursuit. To turn their pursuers from the
scent the robbers, as soon as they had left the
limits of the village, turned down a side road
on to Dorchester avenue, and were seen by
the driver of a Milton horse-car, between
Milton and Field’s Comer, driving along
quite leisurely. The driver describes the party
to be all young men, between the ages of 2i
and JO.
After the news of the daring robbery of the
Blue Hill Bank had been spread abroad,, it
was found that the desperadoes had, earlier
in the morning, been foiled in a design of
robbing the Mattapan Bank, of Harrison
Square. It appears that the assistant cashier
of this bank, while closing the bank, about
fifteen minutes before his usual hour, was
accosted by three men, who asked him to
change a $5O bill, which he declined to do,
and they went off, grumbling, and no doubt
immediately took their way to Milton Lower
Mills.
The Blue Hill Bank was robbed in 1850 by
Josh Wade of some thirty-three thousand dol
lars, a portion of which was recovered at the
time Wade and his,associates were sentenced
to the State Prison for the deed. Up to mid
night last night the parties were not arrested.

TENNESSEE ANTIQUITIES.
KcNearchcs Anions: the Bones of Dead
Centuries—A Wonderful Itlausoloum
—The Ilcmains of an hxtlnct Hn.ce,
[From the Nashville PrcsH and Timeß.l
Tennessee Contains many wonderful an
tiquities which, like n3r other resources, so
to speak, have been but little developed. Her
grand mountains, deep and magnificent
Forests, her noble rivers and wild sequestered
valleys must have been cherished and loved
with Etn intense patriotism by the former
races who once dwelt in the country we now
call our own. The grand and picturesque
scenery in which Tennessee abounds, must
have found in the heart of the aboriginal
tribes a fitting response. It,must have been
thickly inhabited and peopled by hardy and
energetic races. This supposition is strength
ened by the remains which are almost every
where found so plentifully-.
We remember in our rambles over Lookout
Mountain to have detected numerous vestiges
of a now extinct race, and at Chattanooga, in
the National Cemetery grounds, stands a
mound which, in the course of excavations
made two years and a half, ago, was found to
be lull of the bones of the dead; the domestic
and warlike implements of a people,whose
history is lost forever. In the caves of the
mountains, in the deep valleys and rugged
fastnesses which abound in the eastern por
tion of the Slate, wonderful revelations have
been discovered. Fortifications and the site
of towns have been detected with the imprint
of an antiquity stamped upon them, which
places them beyond the Indians who roamed
the forests at the discovery of America by
Columbus.
It may not be generally known that the
ground on which the city of Nashville now
stands was once the site of an ancient and
populous town, yetsuch is supposed to be the
fact.
Some of the most interesting antiquities of
our State are found along the lower course of
Stone river, but a few miles -from Nashville.
A wide area of the country there is covered

thickly with thousands of graves of a now
forgotten people.
But a few days ago several gentlemen made
some researches in this region, and found
their labors richly rewarded by. some striking
discoveries. At a place known as Schells’
Spring they found a mound of considerable
height and of perhaps forty feet in diameter,
which proved, upon examination, to be
nothing less than a vast mausoleum of the
dead. The graves were found to be made of
flat rocks, symmetrically joined together, and
three tiers deep from the base of the mound
to its apex. Bones were found in a remark
able stale of preservation, together with the
pottery and shells.. Very large ornaments
have been dug out in this locality, made
from shells found only in the Gulf of Mexico.
A gentleman of acknowledged skill and au
thority in antiquarian matters, wito conducted
the researches made a few days ago, estimates
that the remains which they unearthed could
not have a less age than six or seven hundred
years. What is remarkable, no warlike im
plements are found in this locality, from which
it, is inferred that they were a peaceable race,
and were probably exterminated or driven
away by the Indians. ■ In one of the ‘graves
was found a beautiful little vase, which had
been placed in the hand of the inmate of the
tomb at the time of burial. Upon this little
bit of earthenware was the model of a diminu
tive animal. The care which these people

of tins .army will assemble on-Saturday, Mill
inst-c at 7.5b"P. M., at 505 Chestnut street, Phila
delphia, to consider the present political status.
The convention will consist of .the grand offi
cers, with the stall'of the Grand’Commander, the
Commanders of the districts of Lower, Middle
and Upper Philadelphia, the commanders and
two delegates from each post in Philadelphia
couutv.
Post commanders will either assemble their res
pective posts in special session, to select dele
gates, or else, in connection with the oflieers of
their posts, appoint them.
As the occasion is one of vital importance, it is
expected that all posts will be represented.
By order of Louis Wagner, Grand Commander.
Janies Given, Assistant Adjt. Gen.
The roll of Posts was then called, and each
Post was found to be properly represented.
General Wagner was chosen to act as chairman,
and Col. James Given performed the duties of
secretary. In taking the chair General Wagner
alluded to the reasons which had induced the
calling of the convention.
Comrade Clayton Maemichaei, Senior Vice
Grand Commander, then offered the follow
ing resolutions, making at the same time a
brief appeal for their lavorablc consideration,
in order that the public might be made ac
quainted with the political status of the Grand
Army:
Whereas, In a national convention of
the Grand Army of the Republic the cardi :
nal principles of this great order were declared
to be:
First, That the Grand Army of the Republic
is organized to maintain, in civil life, those
great principles for which it.stood in arms under
the national flag; that it 6tauds pledged to
crush out active treason, to advance and sup
port active loyalty, to secure sound constitu
tional liberty to all men, and to vindicate,
everywhere and at all times, the full and com
plete tights of every loyal American citizen
against all combinations of force or fraud that
may attempt to deny or deprive them of such
rights. . .
.Si-rond —That we pledge all the power and m
fluencewhich as an association we can legitimately
wield in the most especial manner to those gal
lant men who stood fast by the country In the
honr of its agony, in the rebellious States, and
who, through all manner of losses and injuries—
persecutions by force and persecutions under
color of law—maintained their integrity and vin
dicated their loyalty: and we solemnly declare
that no power that we can U6e shall be neglected
until thi-v are thoroughly and completely pro
tected in" the active exercise of every right of
American freemen, through the entire country
over which our flag lloats. Aud
Wkereus, At the present critical juncture in the
political history of the nation, any lack of sym
pathy witli the party which espouses the princi
ples to the suecefs of which we have declared
our devotion, any supiueness on the part of in
dividuals,any aid rendered to the party by whom
those principles have been bitterly opposed,
whether on the ground of personal feeling or
from other causes, or any failure to do all-that
may be in our power to aid in perfecting the tri
umph of the political party which represents us,
would be alike inimical to the solemn declara
tion of our order in convention assembled, aud
subversive of the great ends to effect which we
were called into existence: therefore,
Be it declared, as the sense of this convention,
that it is the solemn duty of every comrade, of
the Grand Army, of every true-hearted soldier,
and of every other loyal voter, to devote every
energy to securing sueh a triumph for each and
every candidate of the Union Republican party
as will prove to the nation that her sons who de
fended her in arms are ever ready, at the expense
of all personal considerations, to prove their con
tinued loyalty to the cause of right.
The resolutions were ably aud eloquently
seconded by Comrde S. B. Wylie Mitchell, com
mander of the district ofLower Philadelphia (late
surgeon and brevet lieptenant-polqnel U. 8. V.).
Comrade George P. McLean (late colonel U. 8.V.)
followed in an address favoring the sentiments as
expressed. There being no “outsiders” allowed
in the convention, we are unable to
give even a portion of the remarks,
which were entirely one-sided in their
expression; but eloquent speeches endorsing the
proposed action were delivered by Comrades A.
M. K. Storrie, inspector general on staff of the
department commander and late captain 2d P. V.
R. William B. Thomas, late colonel 192 d P.-V.;

private U. S. V.; E. R. Bowen, late liuutenant

The resolutions were adopted, of course.
It was then moved by Comrade 8. B. Wylie
Mitchell that the Department Commander be re
quested to take measures to provide for a Draper
compliment to General Sheridan, in ease he passes
through Philadelphia. It. is proposed that; the-
Grand Army shall unite in a grand serenade to
that hero. " Adopted.
011 motion, a committee was then appointed
to aid iu giving more public expression to tlie
sentiments of tlie loyal soldiery by holding a
grand muss meeting at some time yet to he fixed.
The chairman named the following gentlemen
to act: Clayton Maeiniehael, 8. B. Wvlie Mitchell,

The rest of the business transacted was private.

who own whole neighborhoods and villages, and
who has employed steam-plows tor seven years,
stated at a public meeting that he finds that the
men who are connected with the steam-plow have

NEW JERSEY MATTERS.
Preparing for Action.— Politicians of both
parties arc using their utmost skill anti endeavors
to so organize for tho coming election in Camden
city and county as to secure a signal victory at
the polls. The Johnsonites are in a stew over the
probabilities of defeat, and have been for some
time past .trying to secure a sum of $5,000 or
ijii.OOO towards establishing a new partisan paper,
tlieir present organ being considered too conserva
tive in the service of the Johnson and rebel cause.
Whatever the result of this new enterprise may
lie, there is a general tear exhibited by the old
radical Copperheads that it may be successful,
ilnd for a lew weeks-past the present organ has
1 t ally had a live editorial. I lie attempt to estab
lish a new Johnson organ .has caused a great
shaking among the dry-bones of fossilized Do
moeraev throughout the county, and will,
most likely, ultimate in a grand split,
a defection" much greater than they anui i-
Pute among tlie Kepuldican ranks on the Uni
versal Manhood Suff rage question. In Hie mean
time Ihe Union party are quietly and earnestly
encaged in perfecting their campaign organiza
tions, and harmonizing nil defections, though
fortunately none of any moment exist, from
indications there can be no possible doubt ol
Micocss on tho Union f-klo. Tho members of that
party are too deeply imbued with (lie principles
of loyalty to relax a single effort ill this impor
hint crisis, aud the majorities in the several
counties composing the First Congressional Dis
trict have, heretofore, been too significant and
great to be easily overcome, or to admit of a
change of principle.. radical dis
loyalists are moving the way of organi
zing, thinking to secure Johnsonian patronage
bv establishing a new organ in Camden. Blit it
will be love and labor thrown away. *
‘CoiiNlrn-STfiNi: -to i:e L.vli>—The.-.members
composing tlie Pearl Street Baptist Church, at
Bridgeton, have labored with an earnest zeal to
secure for themselves an appropriate place of
worship, and have succeeded to sueh an extent
that they will lay the corner-stone of a fine and
commodious new church edifice to-morrow, with
appropriate ceremonies.
Farming Prospects.— lt is reported that tlie
fall crops in various counties adjacent to Camden
were never more encouraging and promising.
Corn, potatoes and buckwheat especially are
remarkably excellent, and indicate a profitable
yield.
CitAxitEKisv Cri/mu:.—The cranberry fields in
and around Egg Harbor City present a beautiful
anpearance. The berries are large add well
developed, and are last ripening for the market.
A laige quantity has already Ihtu sent to mar

commenced at Port Republic last week, under
the auspices of the Methodist congregation of
that place, will he continued through the present
week. It is largely attended aud elicits much
interest.

Sad Case of Shooting. —A serious case oc--
curred yesterday in the Eighteenth Ward. A
young man named Charles Fisher, residing at
No. 1051 Cumberland street, procured a boat,and
in company with John Jacobs and Charles Leo
pold, rowed up Gunner’s Run, as far as Somer
set street. Fisher then left the boat in care
of Leopold, and went to the residence of John
Jacobs. When he returned, he observed Leo
pold standing on the shore, the boat,it is alleged,
having been taken from him by a lad named
Charles Cunin, 14 years of age, residing at 1017
Somerset street, and other boys who were in
company witli-him. Fisher then called to
the boys to bring tlie boat to the shore, but
they refused to accede to his requirements. He
then ran to his house nnd procured a gun, which
was loaded, and again colled to the boys to bring
the boat back to the shore. The request having
been complied with, Fisher, aniluv young man,
named Jacob Jacobs, brother or, John Jacobs,
got into the boat and rowed off. They had not
gone far when, it iB alleged, they were attacked
,iti and his friends with stones, which
S exasperated them. Fisher then pointed
1 at young Canin and fired, the contents
taking effect in .Jiis heart, neck and lelt ear.
Fisher was soon after arrested by (aeitizeii, who
handed him over to an officer, lie was then
taken to the Eighteenth Ward Station-house aud
locked up. Jacob Jacobs was arrested last even
ing. The affair created considerable excitement.
