The bust is of life-size, in terracotta, and represents a half-querulous, half-grim old man, attired In the simple Florentine bonnet and scholar's gown, and twisting his bead and his eyes to the right with a life-like interrogative ex pression. Behind the shoulders,rudely scratched into the substance of the clay, one may spell out the name lienivieni,in antique letters. No one can pass that pedestal without pausing a moment to ask what this quaint media:NW Italian is demanding so te , ,tily of his stars, or his fates, or his muse. Nevertheless. archaic as is the subject of the work, doubts have always prevailed In art-circles as to its authenticity. It haS been remarked that the head, though full of antique expression, has not precisely the trick of modeling of the fif teenth century. The identity is rather one of sympathy and Intelligence than of downright technical manner. As some of Browning's mull :cud poems are more medlseval,than the age they depict, so of this now famous head ; we see in it—that is to say, we all clearly see since the question is finally settled—the self-conscious, too-olever antiquarian study of a modern archLe ologlat. Nevertheless, the minute cutting of the wrinkles in the hollow cheeks, the separate at tention given to the sparse locks, the treatment of the corners of the eyes and lips, are strangely plausible and carry back the thought to the ages of exact portraiture, and the drawings of Hol beim, Durex, and the But artists point questioningly to the eyes, treated with comma shaped intaglios for the pupils; a very modern "gag" of pictorial sculpture. The antiquarians, who are not artists, were set in commotion by the arrival of this treasure at Paris. ill. de Nolives, an antiquary of distinction, had purchased it for seven thousand francs from a Signor Frappe, art-merchant, and boasted everywhere of his invainable bargain. Nothing In terracotta had come down to our century so perfect, so alive, so 'needed with the shrewd con scientiousness of early Florentine art. The name upon the back fixed the original of the portrait as that of (4erome Benivieni, poet, and friend of Savonarola. Upon the &pension of the de Naves collection, it was bought in his private capacity by the Comte de Nieuerkerke, who is Minister of the Emperor's Household and of the Fine Arts, and pissed conspicuously in his resi dence at the Tuileries. Finally, the Count parted • with his terracotta to the Louvre. But, 4lnce the days of QnLiotte, and before, antiquarians have been ealled•upon from time to time to "stand and deliver" their illusions. Bestial:tint is a hardworking bust-maker of . „ Florence. Joseph Bonianti is a poor, honeet manufacturer of tobacco in the same city., And the bust is a portrait of Bordantl, the tobacconist, made by `Bastianini, stamped by him with an ancient name, and worked into the antiquity market in a perfectly illegitimate and Brnmena , gem manner. The secret was popped by ti jealous fellow sculptor, one Ocearini, who upon the excitement created over Europe bribe wonderfUl Seerseott ,a came forward and declared that he had watched Basttanini modeling at ; it; and that the resent pistiee to poor Bonianti was perfectly obiioua to: the whole tobacco-trade of Elorence: • And now at limit Baothudni, the' sham4uttique maker, tumbio',to kill 'pit the tobacconbt, and SPECIAL NO7'lo ItS• kr.

The Adminis tration of the Louvre is in anguish. Tnekerman on Hamilton the Painter. We find in Tuckennan's recent book of art biography and criticism the following friendly 'sketch of our inspired landscape painter : "James Hamilton, well-known as the spirited Illustrator of Dr. Kane's Arctic Expedition, came to the United States, from Ireland, in Infancy. His first experimenta were in water colors; land scapes, especially coast scenes in oil, s oon en gaged his pencil. Being enthusiastic and assidu -01313, be gained rapidly In the estimation of critics and lovers of art In Philadelphia, where he was established as a marine painter. Fond of contrast and effect, he excelled in sea fights. i his "Capture m of the Sepis" and "Old Ironsides" gained no little commendation. The former picture has been vividly described by ono of. the artist's riends : " 'The capture of the Berapis is, of course, the brilliant historic achievement of John Paul Jones, in the war of 1812. The picture represents a lovely, placid summer night; a full moon floats amid a masts of cumulous clouds; there is just a ripple on the sea in which the moonlight glints and sparkles; In the distance groups of shipping and the outline of the English coast loom with a eat, shadowy vagueness; all tho accessories are In profoundest repose. Into this solemn hush of night, this intense calm, he has lung the roar 'and crash and carnage of that terrible sea tragedy. The two vessels are side by side in deadliest grapple. The flames from the 'burning Bonne Homme Richard, rut and ghastly as if with the blood of the dead below, twirl and coil about the masts and rigging, and stream far up into the heaven, staining the %bite radiance of the night. Wild figures rush across the decks, the flash of the guns gleams tierce and vindictive through the darker flames of the conflagration, and, reflected In the water be neath; wreathes a distorted repetition of the lurid scene. ' Nothing could be finer or more dramatic than the contrast of sentiment here. The deadly struggle of human passion below imparts to the mooaght an added pitying tenderness, as It were, and the moonlight In turn enhances the awfultiess of the tragedy. In this picture the human element is active. Nature is passive. In the 'Old Ironsides' this arrangement is reversed. The subject la taken from the following lines In Dr. Holmes' poem of the same title: ' 0, better that her shattered hulk Should sink beneath the wave; lier thunders shook the mighty deep, And there should be ker grave. Nail to the mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail, And give her to the god of storms— • The lightning and the gale!' "Among the other best-known pictures of Hamilton are: "An Egyptian filmset," "Wrecked Hopes," "A laleeldight Beene near Venice," a , Lumber of subjects from the Arabian :.Nights', and a weird yletnre illustrative of Cole - ridge's Ancient Mariner. From the contrast of sut'jeats, it is evident that thescope of this artist ranges from the most serene_ly Unagi" native to the wildest natural scales.. His style is bold and !reel' he does nit 'ahn' at 'high finish; ho is the reverse of literal, and alms to give em phatically his own feeling and sense of a subject. He is best known for his Illustrations of Dr. Kane's book, of which Bkzel. - wood's Magazirte says—'The engravings of Dr. none's book are eminently happy; the production'Of a man who is a real poet in art, and invest the whole work with a halo of romance mysterious as the effects of light in these northern regions, and which could scarcely have beeAt produced by the power of words.'" Dim Kemble's seventh Bending Last night, at Concert Hall, the largest au dience of the season assembled to hear Mrs. Kemble read 7'he Merchant of Vonce.. The usual number of strangely inconsiderate and self-sacrl fleing people lugged their volumes of Shakes peare along with them, and sat following the reader line upon line,wholly oblivionti of the fact that they were missing the best portion of the entertainment. Mrs. Keinble must hive Foaled and bewildered these . people not a little, for she cut the drama unsparingly, thus giving them further occasion for distracting their attention from her personation. Bat the play was pruned judiciously. She retained all of the sweet poetry,and there is much of it, despite the anomalies, incongruities and impossibilities which cluster about the plot and the text, and notwithstanding the harsh and cruel character of Shylock, Of Mrs. Kemble's presentation of the play nothing need be said in detail. Any further praise of her genius and skill would be super fluous. The entertainment was fully as good as any that have preceded it, and the familiarity of play-goers with the drama ,teelf made perceptible the fact that Mrs. Kemble's reading of certain passages differs widely from that of other Shakespearian scholars. This was especially observable in the case of Por tia's noble appeal, beginning "The quality of mercy is not strained." The reader departed In a great measure from the conventional method of speaking this, and her rendition seemed to be satisfactory and just. This afternoon the series closes with Hamlet. It is, understood, however, that Mrs. Kemble will return In May and read Several of the plays omitted during her present engagement. EUROPEAN AFFAIRS , Filolll 1311111.11 N. the Mission el rrillICID Anne!sou— Business and Pleassrel-Sequestrao. liolll—Demmaark and Ifileinanny—The Cession et Selileswig. leetreeponnesee of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.) BIERLIN, March 11, 1868.—Themisalon of Prince Napoleon is still the subject of the most varied comments. There is reason for believing that his visit to Berlin has really a political signifi cance. We cannot now know the exact • nature of the work in which he is engaged, but enough has transpired to enable us to see that the Empe ror Napoleon meditates, or says he meditates, a move in the East, and that he desires to ascertain what would be the.views of this gov ernment in the event of his attempting , to realize his designs.. The Prince makes -no definite --crposals, ;but only announces a general intention and re quests a reply in the same indefinite vein. ,How ever obscure his communications may be, they have force by his giving pee le to understand that according to the answer given he may be in structed to continue his jonmeyeither to Vienna or to St. Petersburg. A mission of such shadowy outlines must of course, give birth to an infinity of rumors. In one of the reports concern ing the,Prince's visit here,f published by some of the Berlin papers, he is represented as having mentioned the re-establishment of Pelattd aa an infallible moans of coMPo ll ing` She 404 1nleseenen of Russia in any.Basterwchanges, should she ex hibit a contraidwise, intoittion. It is ainioat needless to say that we are not very solemnly called on to 'believe , 1 The Polish papers of. Cracow_ ant Posen warn against believing in the seductive OUR. WHOLE COUNTRY. Wishing to co-operate on my part to obtain this end, 1 have compiled from my correspon dence, as Minister of the Republic at Washing ton, tow in the Department of Foreign Affairs, the part that refers to Maximilian's execution, as to the effect it produced in the United states and Europe t and the consequences that might have arisen from it. This correspondence contains some interesting facts, which I think better to make public, and which tend to a better under bonding of the wise policy that the Cabinet at Washington has followed In our affairs. I have translated also the principal documents that the United States Government published on this sub ject, some of which are of the highest interest. L therefore, offer all this information to my fellow-citizens, animated by the sincerest desire to present the facts as they really are, believing that they will not be ill received, now that we may view this event from its historical bearing and with the impartiality that the lapse of several months gives. As the incident of tho arrival at Vera Cruz of Don Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna on July of 1867 Is related to it, I will have to insert several documents bearing on the question, reserving , to myself the right of publishing afterward, in separate volume, all the others that refer to it, as my belief is that its importance requires that it should be dine so for the benefit of the country. M. Roma n% Mexico, Feb. 12, 1868. The Russian Imagine Against Turkey —Reduction ot,the Imperial Army. A letter from Vienna, dated the 29th of Feb. raary, says :—The whole Russian press and cer tain other journals affect to feel commiseration for the fate of the Ottoman empire, which they represent as a great nation standing in need only of good ministers and honest public servants. nue is the repetition of the story of the mote , and the beam. On the other hand, they praise highly the Shah of Persia's government and the admin istration of the country. If the Eastern world is to be regenerated the work, they say, can only be begun at. Teheran. At the same time, and as a corollary to all this, the report is spread that the Sultan is furious with the Shah, that he is contemplating the expulsion from the Ottoman territory of such Persian subjects as are within it, and the number of these even is given as com prising forty thousand families who would by this measure be thrown book into their own coun try and the adjoining deeerts. Here you see the object of these schemes, which are oontinually increasing in dimension. Compelled by the en ergetic attitude of the three Powers to let the Ron man, Bulgarian, Servian and Candlote questions alone, the concoctors of these disputes are labor ing to get up a Turko-Persian quarrel. Should a conflict arise between , thosetWo enapirei,3 7 —and in 'MC &Meestate of Matters this is not impos sible—the Ottoman Power in Ettropemr Turkey would receive thereby so terrible a shock that a few bands of adventurero, skillfully led, would suffice to bring about ' a catastrophe which is complacently regarded- as being indefinitely postponed. Thus, until further - htformed, the understanding is that everything is for, the beet in Roumania and genia. . The General Correepoodesoe of Vienna, has 'the following: In virtue of a supreme decision of the 18th of Februa7. 1. The military beads ex cept those of the infontry regiments are abolished from the 31st of March. 2. All the squadrons of Flaky are reduced, to 98 MI each: 3..

He visits palaces, barracks, libraries . and public institu rtions of every description, paying the chiefest ! <and closest attention to everything in a military sine. He - has not only inspected several itfantry :and artillery barracks, but be has also witnessed regimental drills and sham fights. There seem, not to be the least objection to giving him n insight into all the mysteries of the needle-gun, and he has oven been taken to the model foundry of the Ordnance Department, , where were made the new cannon of the Prussian army. His mornings are taken tin in 'sight seeing in the most approved tourist style, and his evenings are given to visits, dinners, etc. In ad dition to the usual festivities in the royal - palace, the Prince has been given entertainments by the French and English Ambassadors, and ()mint Bedern, the Grand Chamberlain of the Court. The property of King George is being seques trated, his palettes at Hanover and Harrenhansen having been placed under the seal of the Royal' Commissioners. No sequestration has as yet been possible in the ease of Count Platen, the hereditary estates of his family being exclusively claimed by his father and elder brother. The Count is in some personal danger. His extra dition will probably be demanded from Anatria, tinder an agreement providing for the" giving up of political offenders. This agreement, strangely enough, was made about thirty years ago by legitimist statesmen for the prevention of demo gognes from either country taking refage in the other. When the navy estimates were recently dis cussed in the Danish Lower House, all the speakers based their arguments on hopes of a fu ture war of retaliation against Germany. It is thought that this will surely bo cited by this Government as an excuse for not ceding a por tion of Schleswig, as stipulated at Prague. The Execution of Maximilian. The following is a translation from the official paper of the Mexican Government of February ultimo : [Diplomatic Correspondence on Maximilian's Execution.] "We are informed that Mr. Romero has in print, and is about to publish, the correspondence of the Mexican Legation at Washington with the Department of Foreign Affairs of the Repub lic and the State Department of the United States, on the captnrc,trial and execution of Don Fernand Maximilian, of Hapsburg, which will make a volume of three or four hundred pages in quarto. We insert here the following preface to said torrespondence: INTORDIIGTION The execution of Mr. Frenand MILT Trillion has been,without donbt,one of the most notable events of the present time; not only because it was a just chastisement that fell on one of those persons who, by their origin and position,consider them selves in this world entitled to impunity, but also because it defied the most powerful nations of Occidental Europe. The impression this event made abroad can scarcely be imagined here. The consequences that have followed, and will follow it, have been and will be also of the greatest im portance. Scarcely bad this memorable event taken place when several of the foreign Governments hastened to publish the diplomatic corm§pon ;tenet of their chanceries on thie, subject. The execution took place on thei 19th of June,lB67, and on the Bth of July the United, States Con sten 'asked the Prealdent,, - Andrew Johnaon, for any correspondence the American Government might bare hearing on this grave subject. It was sent to the State Department on the 18th, and published soon atter by Con.- gress. Notwithstanding the importance ()cads event, which was greater for Mexico than for anv other nation, including France.- and Ans tri-a, no other official publication has been made hitherto on it than the-very incomplete one contained is a number of the official paper of San Lubt Potosi, which was issued on the same day of the execution, and a memorandum of Maximilian's,coruisel, which presents only one side of the question not very favorable to the cause -of Mexico. 3faximilian's complete trial, which ought to have been published on the week following the execution, has not come to light yet. The whole world anxiously awaits the presentation of our own view of the question. The honor and good name of the Republic are interested at the same time that we should do this as soon as possible. squadron Is re-established in the regiment= of dragoons, bearing the numbers of I to 7 and 9 to 12. The restoration of these sqnadrons is not to lead to any advancement for the officers. Other important retretebmenta are to , be expected Shortly in the army budget. The recent marriage of the Archduke Henry of Austria with Mlle. Hoffmann, the actress, sug gests the following reflections to the Augsburg Gazetle;—Before his marriage the Archduke asked to be relieved of his command as general of a division at Brunn. Now that he is married he Las been deprived, that of his colonelcy of the Sixty-third infantry, which has been. given to Prince Louis,' of Bavaria, husband of the Arch duchess Maria ThereSa; finally, his resignation as Lieutenant-General has been accepted, and he has now no military position whatever. Wren formerly, the Archduke Stephen fell into &grace he retained his military rank and his regiment. Possibly this affair may give rise to a Aeries of interesting questions. For instance, the marriage contracted by the Archduke Henry is null according to the domestic law of the Im perial family, because it has been entered into without the assent of the Emperor, and yet it is valid in the eyes of the Church. The question, too, may be asked, la what form shalthe wife of the Archduke be addressed, since, evidently, she has not become Archducheaa and cannot bear the name of her husband ,• and, on the other hand, neither special appellation nor titles have been bestowed upon her." The Knit-Klux Klan—Secret Neeioties Ileneunced—.Governor Brownionos Mail Hittite Against the 4 .lFluk.Klux lFrom the Knoxville ererei.)Whig—Brovestsw—Radleal— &torch 11.1 That there is in Tennessee such an organths.- lion as the one above-named no doubt can be entertained. It is true the conservative press and party attempt to ridicule the idea, and the denounce and stigmatize as weak and over-credu lous those who believe in the existence of the Kuk-Klux Klan; yet does such ridicule disprove their existence? Does it disarm them of murde rous intent and wicked purpose? Can the rebel and conservative press whistle high-handed murder and terrorism down the wind? Will derision and sneers give us back to life the pale . victims of their fiendish wickedness ? Yes, the Kuklux Mans exist. They are known to be formidable in Middle and West Tennessee. Their murderous, bushwacking conduct in the counties of Dyer, Lincoln and Rutherford are now matters of history. Their organizations have not appeared in force in many points in East Tennesse,but they are evidently organizing. As they burrow in darkness and skulk behind mysterious names and forms, they may think to escape detection, and oven to elude suspicion. Yet they are observed,and their movements more known than themselves imagine. Who Make up these organizations ? They are rebels and conservatives—men who fought in the ranks of the rebel armies during the war, and those who then sympathized with them, bat who, through sheer cowardice, gaze the battle-field a wide berth. Those conservatives fully sympathize with "the lost cause" now. •They work' for. it, vote for it when they can, plan for-it, and now, at last, go into Kukla' Elans t in - help by law- - lawless violence, riot and murder, what can no longer be kept alive by fair, legitimate methods. What are their objects?:. 'Precisely the objects that have animated the,whole rebel (mew, frein Jeff. Davis - down to,-the veriest piny that huzzalied for the rebellion all along.during the war. .They hate loyalty, and the men who uphold and em body Jr: Loyalty in black or white is so odious to.them, and especially in black men, that they cannot refrain 'from venting their hell-inapired malignity upon them. They seek' to'compass their objects by intimidating colored men, and by wreaking vengeance upon white radicals. Their objects are the overthrow of loyalty, which they loathe and hate, by any , and every means, whether right or wrong, lawful or unlawful, hon orable or despicable, true or false, and more gen erally by the latter than the former. Union men, leaguers, beware of them; watch them; spot them. In nearly every county you have strength sufficient to make yourselves terrible to these midnight assassins and lawless desperadoes, and to visit swift and signal punishment on those fiends in human form who may break the peace of the country and mob and terrify honest, mno. , cent citizens, and if in any case you lack the numbers or the means to do this there are more than a million swords ready to be un sheathed to avenge your tall or to faci litate your victory. Especially in East Tennessee are you numerous and strong enough to hold the situation. Our counsel once for all is, that whenever these vile miscreants make their ap pearance among us, mounted, booted and spurred, and however disguised, let the white and colored radicals meet them promptly, and in the spirit of their own lawless mission, and dis perse them, and if need require this in dispersing them, exterminate them. At all events, and at whatever cost, let these inhuman scoundrels learn that in East Tennessee at least they will not be allowed to carry forward this cowardly, miserably sneaking kind of warfare. We speak earnestly because the owaslon demands, it. Bat we are calm—we were never more so. Desperate cases require desperate remedies. If the Kuklux Kians attempt to run riot over oar law, order and the public safety by these mid night raids. in disguise and darkness, then let force be met and punished by superior force. Pull off their visors and expose their faces and their foul crimes at once to the light of the sun and to the gaze of merited scorn of an indignant, outraged public.

Y.) .Repister of March 23d contains the following additional developments concerning the brutal murder of a child in Ca naan, Conn,. and the arrest of a Mr. and Mrs. Brown, in Hartford, charged with committing the deed. They are now in !jail in Hudson, awaiting trial. On Saturday last a man went to the jail in this city and asked that he might be allowed to see Mr. and Mrs. Brown; the parties now awaiting trial, charged with being the perpetrators of the Canaan child murder. This privilege was ac corded the stranger, who gave his name as Wil liima Hickey, and asserted , that he had been sent from Connecticut by Brown's half brother to make a statement which was regarded as of great Importance. After some effort Mr. Hickey was induced to tell the story, which was in substance as follows: Hickey, with another man—both painters by trade—were in Canaan the day Angie Brown was killed or died. They were inquiringfor work,and it being noticed, that Hickey was a Frenchman they were referred to Brown. They went to Brown's house in the evening and inquired for bun; but Hickey says that he was told by a little girl who came to the door that both Mr. and Mrs. Brown had gone aWay. From Canaan Hickey and his companion went to Vermont; and after the lapse of several months he brought up a few days since in Connecticut, whore her fell-In with brown's bait Prother,_heard the story of the sup poSed murder, told ids own story and then came to this city. Hickey, we learn, has had interviowe with the Browns' counsel and the District Attorney; but , nothing of any importance was elicited further than given above. This statement of Hickey agrees with what Brown told one of our ofticers at the time of his arrest, which was detailed to to us this morning by the *Meer to whom it was told. •Brown said he could prove by two men that he was absent from the house, and that the girl was seen by them during his absence.
