Bleed, Chamberlain to Plus IX. In per forming the ceremony, which took place at the French Embassy, the Chamberlain said that his Holiness had conferred on the Prince this high dignity, not only to recompense his merits, but at the same time to honor the generous nation,so devoted to the Holy See, and the iliaatrious sover eign who had rendered such immense services to the Papacy. The Italian clergy, however, do not seem to be of their chiefs opinion. The Concilia tore, of Naples, has just published an article, emanating from' the priests, against the policy of Napoleon 111., of such a vehement nature that it has stirred up the ire of the entire - French press. Ia spite of all the Emperor has done for the Pope, this journal affirms that he has only reaped the profound hatred of both Italian and French Catholics. It says: "Those who affirm that the Chassopots de fended the Papacy at Mentana are fools and liars. Those rifles only defended the throne of Napo leon III." It ends with these solemn words: "Napoleon 111., Baron de Beust, and even the House of Hapsburg will pass away—the Papacy alone is permanent." Count de Bismarck, it appears, is not so inde pendent of the good opinion of Fatherland as is generally supposed. Nay, morc,he is exquisitely sensitive on this point. A letter which he wrote some time since to a friend in Pomerania, and which has just been made public, contains sortie cerlons remarks relative to his political con duct. One can almost, imagine them to be the truthful - soliloquy of a great philosopher and statesman. He says that, in his opinion, he is `not sufficiently unscrupulous as a statesman, but rather too timid, and that this Is because it is net easy always to attain in politicsl questions that dcarnt bleb gives confidence. Those,"he adds, "who call me an unconscientious politician do me hone.- They should try their own consciences e,n the field of polities before accusing others of tinconscientions." In regard to the matter of the duel between him and Herr Von Virchow, Lt• sass that he has now passed "the age when ople thus follow the impulses of their fresh and /As otl. It there is anything on which I stake my li's. it is that beliet in whieh I have been con firmed through a long and hard straggle, but also through honorable and humble prayer before God, and which no human persuasion—not even that Oa friend in the Lord and a servant of his clitiral—would shake me." Whether the late algid the Prince Napoleon, o Prussia was attended with any political imports ance is a question which has been occupying the minds Of amateur politicians for some days back. With regard to this the Correspondence of Berlin says: "Although the visit of Prince Napoleon to Prussia was unconnected with any political mis sion, H. I. H. has been able to perceive clearly how solid and stable is the new order of things established in Northern Germany. He must also ?I'M seen that the sentiment which predominates . here, is a desire to keep up with the French nation and its Government friendly! and pacific rela tions." Very good; but France has now a reserve of two million men, and her arsenals are sending out chassepots at the rate of ten thousand a day. In face of such powerful incentives to amity,it is the best policy to erow softly. As to what is going on in Paris—we are all at sea, lying becalmed after the hurricane of the Carnival. The Carnival is now over, and the Parisians must wait another year for their an nual round of madame. Yesterday was the last and greatest day of the Mi carinie; Easter begins to-day, and luxurious Paris is dining sumptu ously on eggs and salad. On the monotonous road of daily life there art several resting places. One is the day we divote to amusements, another the day we are bored, and another the day we weep, and generally in our voyage from January to December we come upon some of these land marks. 'Yesterday was one of these. All busi ness studies and occupations of every kind were laid aside for furious and silly amusement. In the morning the comfortable bourgeois reminds himself while shaving that he has an appoint ment with Andre to sign some contract, or terminate some affair, and, chuckling, thinks he will not regret his days work. "What is the date?" he asks of his spouse. "The 19th," Madam replies,` it is the Mi careine." "Sapristi! then I will not see Andre to-day; nobody at tends to affairs to-day, everyone is benton plea sure. Mafoi, let us do as the others,let us amuse ourselves." The amusement! What is it.? The programme is uniformand tradition admits of no - atepping mat of - theliees - There - arc only - two ways of amusing yourself to-day. The first con sists in;setting into a cab, and promenading leisurely along the boulevards,dressed in a Turkish vt st and a,card-paper nose, and blowing vocifer ously through a brass trumpet. The second is to range yourself on one side of the route, with the vest and nose aforesaid, and look on while the pther half parades along discoursing sweet music with the aforesaid braes trumpets. Modern civilization, which has ia vented the electric telegraph, the steam engine and the Chaseepot, has yet found nothing better to represent the joy of 0 people in holiday than card-paper noses and brass trumpets. All is con ventional. When a Frenchman is satisfied with the Government, or when a particular circum stance pushes him to declaim on the glory of France, he must find vent for his feelings. This he finds in his own peculiar way. He goes home, gets a little pot of grease, puts a piece of tow into it, lights it, and* places it outside his window sill, as a visible sign to all men of his supreme contentment. The Government .passes by, sees the little pot, and rubbing its hands in glee,. con gratulates itself thus: AA! Voila tin part:taller qui eat Lien content de. mei. These practices are found everywhere; they only change with the latitudes. In Dahomey, for instance, the public joy has another sequel. On fete days they cut the heads off some two or three thousand unfortunate blacks; no holiday making is complete without a massacre. In London they burn an effigy of Guy Fawkes or. the Emperor Theodore. That is the cockney way of celebrating a jubilee. In Italy they rub themselves over with flour, and, candle in hand, parade about the streets, chanting hymns to their favorite saints. Last night all the Paris balls were crowded; the cafés were open all night, and it was not till a late hour this morning thatthe Parisians rested from their labors-sof amusement. Well ! who knows what may happen in those streete—only a few hours ago glittering with light and the radiance cast from thousands of tin selled .dresses, and echoing to the shouts of revelry and song—before the next grand festival of the .111 i canine. The barometer inclines to "showery" and the sun is, tinged with red. Rome seems the last place we would look to for sporting intelligence, and his Holiness the Pope the last we would think of as a patron and spectator of field sports, and yet we bear of ,a cricket match played within the eternal walla, at which the Holy Father was only prevented by a shower of rain - from "assisting." Thematek was played in the Villa Borgheee, between eleven of the PapalZonaves and eleven English visitors--s the Papal eleven, however, being entirely com posed-of Englishmen and Irish MOll.. An rain came on, the match was not played outsand for the same reason Pio Nono, who had intended to grace the event by his presence, was absent; A cricket ,match played at Rome by Engliah and Irish guards of the:Pope, under the Doty Father's own eyes;preeente indeed a nuw order or things: PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, APRIJ 8, 1868. Oreat changes have taken place in the theatres In Paris within the last few weeks. English plays are all the vogue, and no manager can hope to have a full house if Le does not humor the pre sent taste for insular or American pieces. I shall have something to say about them in my nest letter. ft. The Coming Royal ivlarrlage in Italy. (Coireopondenee of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.] FLORENCE, March 20th, 1808.—The marriage which is to be celebrated at Turin on the 22d of next month, of Prince Humbert and Princess Marguerite, the daughter of the much-loved and long-lamented Ferdinand of Savoy, will, it seems, give great end general satisfaction to all Italy. Toward the Prince there is a general feel ing of good-will, and much good Is predicted of of Marguerite, the "Sub-alpine daisy," the future Queen of Ittly; for those who know her weds praise her fine finalities, her goodness of heart,and firmness of character, and appreciate the excel lence of life education she has received. It is doubt ful if any Austrian ,bride would Lave been so ac ceptable to the nation. What increases the sympathetic interest taken by the people in the coming marriage is its being a "love match.' This interest has been warmly manifested by in numerable addresses to the. King and in various other ways. Cities i andl towns are preparing splendid presents for the bride. This city will offer a sevigne in brilliants, with a lily in the centre, surrounded by daisies, thus uniting the city's emblem with the flower of which she bears the name. The Venetian ladies will present beautiful Venetian lace in a Mosaic coffer. Seven hundred Milanese ladies have subscribed for an ivory writing-desk, with paintings on a golden ground and ornaments to end enamel. This last will be a master ce of skill. Other cities will seek.to rival these. fire festive demonstrations will be on a splendid scale. The >s"/Ps in Turin will begin on the 19th of April witlia grand ball. The following Monday there is to be an illumination: the next day, horse races, a serenade And a popular ball, The that'll:lite will be solemnized on Thursday, and on the following days there will be a tourna ment, fireworks, horse races, a banquet at court, .1 court ball. corso, review, etc. 'The royal fam ily will return to Florence on the 27th. The Florence 6(6y will even rival 'those of Turin in niagnificelce. The great feature of the an here, according to the published de tail', will be a tournament in which four bands of troops, each consisting of thirty-two knights, a leader, and a standard-bearer, will take part. These bands will be formed in Florence, Turin, Milan and Naples, but 'Will 'include gentlemen from all parts of Italy. The knights will wear the costumes of the various Italia. provinces in the fifteenth century. It is reported as probable that another brigade • of the French troops now in the Papal States will Loon be sent to France. THEATRES. Etc. EowIN Boorn's "Msciami."—Last night, for the first time in five years, Mr. Edwin Booth re presented "Macbeth" in this city. Why he has thus neglected the character we do not know. It may be that difficulty has been experienced in procuring a satisfactory person to sustain the character of "Lady Macbeth"—a difficulty, by the Aay that has not yet been overcome—or it may be that Mr. Booth has some personal objec tion to appearing in the role. His strong parti ality for Hamlet may be the result of a taste which cannot find fullest satisfaction.in Macbeth. The former is replete with thought and contem -I,lative philosophy; the latter is filled with action sad violence. It is certain, however, that Mr. Booth need not fear to rest his fame upon Macbeth more than upon II am t. His performance last night was a surprise even to those who have best known his large capabilities. In the broadest t , ense It was a complete and finished personation. Mr. Booth carried his genius into every nook and corner of the play until it blazed with mean ing. Not a gesture was ill-timed; not a glance ut the eye was forgotten; not a thought flashed across his mind but moulded itself in his facile countenance. The most minute details were cared for with even more than Booth's customary pains, and in the important matter of costume, there was a nice historic propriety, made ouiy more admirable by the artistic skill with which the dresses were arranged, and the surpassing gracefulness of the attitudes in which they were eieplayed. It may be questioned whether this impersona tion is not tee greatest Mr. Booth has ever at tempted. His "Hamlet" has always won highest honor, but it is because Mr. Booth is more par tial to it hiineelf, and not because 2h• character is drawn by him with pore wonderful skill. Of course the tragedy of Hamlet must always take precodence of It acbeth as a subtle, intellectual drama; but the latter is the more powerful, vivid and terrible, and contains within itself pictures of human weakness, crime.' suffering, remorse and desperation t•hat have no parallel anywhere to art, and are only frightful because they do exist in nature. . . . The weird combination of the supernatural Ind the natural—the real and unreal, in this play give it unequaled tragic power. The witches Are, of themselves, absurdities, but in their opera tion upon the mind of the man whose destiny they control for evil, they assume something of the awfulness of those invisible agencies which have actual existence, and do really lead men on to do savage and remorseful deeds. Mr. Booth accepts or creates the theory that the prophecy of the witches simply awakens a suggestion that already slumbers iu the mind of "Macbeth," and, from the first, he perceives the cruel possi bilities of the future. He dallies with it, as if half willing to be controlled by the Indistinct purpose which is to fashion out his destiny; and (he seed of his wife's dark suggestion finds the soil prepared to receive it and nourish it into vigorous growth. The first scene in which Mr. Booth displayed absolute greatness was that in which, while alone is the ante•chamber, he awaits the signal to, do his bloody work. He is in an ecstasy of nervous terror; his senses are acute almost to painfulness; his nerves are strung to the highest pitch; a whisper, the clanging of a door, a footfall, the soughing of the wind, are intensified ten thousand times to his hearing. He is nearly afraid of his own motion; he creeps noiselessly about the room, and examines every panel, until, convinced that he is the prey of his own violent imagination, he sinks convulsively upon the seat, and, with his tense muscles utterly relaxed, begins the soliloquy, "Is thisa dagger that I see before me?" And. then ho goes in to do his bloody work with the crouching, stealthy tread of a man who is horror-stricken at the awfulness of his own re solution. The next scene, wheie he returns and meets "Lady Macbeth," is the most appalling in dra matic literature. Mrs. Biddone related, that when she studied the play, she proceeded calmly until she reached this episode, and then, becoming horrified WM, vivid reality, she rushed from the room in a Rfiroxlysm of terror, frightened even by the rustlmg of her dress. Mr. Booth does full justice to the text. Ile enters from the chamber of the dead king looking at his blood stained hands, and at 'the sound of his wife's voice, urged by the instinct of self-preservation, and the madness of his fright, he rushes upon her with uplifted dagger as though he would smite her also. The interview that follows is almost pitiable in its wretched pathos.. Mr. Booth gave it with exquisite truth and skill—and it was so throughout. If one episode was batter than than another, it was because the dramatist gave larger Opportunity, not because the aster was not equal to every occasion. . . In the kit scene—the combat. with: Macduff, the expression' of lir. Booth's face:was positively fiendish. In It Were concentrated ell the ramonse, the hstlit4 age, the wild, fierce deoperrAtion of a - . OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. man who has staked honor, innocence, life, and lost all. We sincerely hope this most superb perform ance may be repeated. Mr. Booth owes it to him self to afford the puhhe an opportunity to see him in what is, to nearly all, a new personation. With almost every one ofhis favorite characters we are thoroughly familiar. This is a noVelty which will bear familiarity better than any of the others. 01 Miss Mary McViciarr's "Lady Macbeth" we will say but a few words. With. the great inter pretations of this, the boldest of Shakespeare's conceptions fresh in •ur minds—with distinct re collection of Charlotte Cushman, aid, later of Itietori, It is Impossible to award any high degree of merit to the effort of Miss Melvicker. We do not desire to speak unkindly of her; indeed 13110 possesses very great-talent, but she is wholly un fitted to Einstein the part attempted by her last night. The first impression made upon the audi ence was one of ineongr pity. Miss MeVicker was not dressed appropriately; and did not look the character. 11 she had passaged only mode rate ability, her personation would have been a wretched and absurd failure. To her credit ir,c it said, that her intellectual powers supplied her deficiencies in other respects, and long before the close of the play, the sense of Incongruity was inn great measure dissipated. Her elocution is of the best kind, and her reading of the part was clear, forcible and intelligent. In the sleep wa king scene—that most terrific representation of the effect of a troubled conscience upon hu manity—Miss 31eVielter was not nearly .so good as in some of the other miss'ages. But she suf fered throughout from comparison, and while we can fairly compliment 'her for her courage in going throughout the, part so valiantly, we may reasonably question her taste in attempting it at all.

On auuday night I found the President, as I thought, quite despondent. lie seemed to have read in the pro. ceedings of the trial, as tar as it had then progresafed, enough to justify his fears on the subject of hid own fate, and to have come to the conclusion that the Case had been prejudged against him. More thau once, however, in the course of the two hours I. watt with him, tie ex *pressed the hope that he would be fairly heard, and coupled it always with implicit confidence in his full chickadee. The idea was, that unless lie had been con. derialt.ti before the trial began, lie should certainly be acquitted faits close. La,t night i called on him again, lie had entirely re. covered trom hid deI3I)OIIdUACY, and was in hit semi towed good spirits, net only confident, but even com bative, instating all the way through,not only that he wits right, but that Congress was wrong, and that the wrong end of the avenue was in process of impeachment. A friend to whom I have since spoken of the contrast which those two Pulagraphs present, explained it at once by saying. hat's the way it has been with hint ever NillICO the impeachment began. kle is constantly alternating between the fears that he won't be fairly tried and the consciousness that comes from a knowladge that 110. }Ma 'Committed no impeachable offence.'
