FAItIB, April 4th, 1868.—The sun has been so excessively hot on the Champs Elysees to-day that mon and women and children, and, even horses, have fallen under a coup de soleil. Puppet shows, goat-carriages, revolving horses, and all the usual attractions for children,were passed by, and the little ones who are dedicated to the Vir gin unill their seventh year, dressing in blue and white only, walked under blue umbrellas, carried by their bonne's, and patronized the limonade and eau-de-lucre stands generously. Though the trees are all budding, there is not foliage enough to shade the walks, but before the sun is at its height the Champs Elysees, even now, with its fountains and millions of flowers, is a place of enchantment. We have just returned to Paris in time to get a view of the summer pal aces before their occupation by the royal house hold. We began with St. Cloud, the favorite res idence of Napoleon First, and the summer resi dence of the present Emperor. The palace is nearly three hundred years old, having been built by a rich financier in 1572, possessed by four. Bishops of Paris consecutively, afterwards purchased by Louis XIV. and presented to his brother, the Duke of Orleans, who employed Lepante Girard and Mansard to repair and re adorn it. Here the childlike Marie Antoinette Indulged her romantic notions when,accompanled by Louis XVI., she paid it frequent visits, though Versailles was his favorite residence. Built on the slope of a hill on the banks of the Seine, from the ground floor one can command a view of the whole city of Paris, and so immense is the city, so clear the view of its 'white houses, columns, lowers and triumphal arches, that naturally we listened for the hum of voices and sounds as they arc heard from the top of the Pantheon. But no sound ex‘apt the chimes of the noon-day bells reached us. Here Napoleon. First stood and gazed on Paris, the theatre of his great life drama, where heroes were crowned, tyranta s -all but himself—punished, and FOLLY branded on the, national character in golden letters, by the sneering sarcasm of that Chefof Ambition. When in the evening of a day that left France with no more victories to win, Napoleon wassasked what should be done to keep the people employed and prevent a revolution: "Gild the dome of the In valldes !" was the reply, and the next morning all Paris was astonished to see what had bean done in a single night. So the people are amused by Napoleon Third, and never did I'see Folly reign so supremely as on the mi-careme or raid-lent. Even religion is feared in this effer vescent city,and a respite granted the devout from their fasting—on the most delicious fish, salades omelettes and pates that mortal taste coup sug gest. All day long the soldiers paraded the streets, and the blanchisseues, whose especial holi day it was, dressed in their best, many in beauti ful spring costumes, crowded the boulevards, Champs Elye6es and the Tulleries,where the Em peror and Prince Imperial reviewed a part of the troops, while the Empress looked on from the windows oilier apartment in the palace. Wagons, chariots and triumphal cars, with even the wheels bound and decorated with wreaths of flowers, were loaded with men and women in costumes decent and indecent, who made all sorts of gestures and sounds, like the ancients in their heathenish orgies. How the day ended, shade of George Wash ington, reveal to American incredulity! No one else would be believed. With a party of Ameri cans who were advised to see this phase of life in the empire thoroughly, I went in a domino and masque to the grand opera house at midnight. The atreet all around the house was so brilliantly illuminated that the greedy eyes of the crowd who had been unable to secure admittance glared at us from under their cap frills and hat rims in a startling manner. Please take notice, we were going not, to an obscure den, where one would naturally expect to find disorder and licensed behavior, but to the im perial opera house, with imperial guards to protect the revelers from interruption. Going up the grand stairway through files of guards who peered in vain at our Venetian masks, that concealed every feature from recognition, we Were soon safely lodged in a box, our door locked on .the inside, and our eyes tastened with horror on the scene in the ball-room. Strause, with one hundred and fifty musicians, made the heavy, perfumed air quiver with melody. Birds sang from their gilded cages, light, intense daz zling light, blazed on the magnificent costumes that were so packed and jammed into that whirl ing, maddened, intoxicated crowd of dancers, that one grew dizzy in the attempt to distin guish them. But, oh, woman, with every trace of womanly delicacy and beauty obliterated by sin, was there. Man,without one ray of man's honor, dignity or humanity, was there. There could not have been two sisters, a mother and daughter, or a father and child, in that mass of pollution. Each one must have been drawn in singly by the eddies of misfortune, beyond hope of redemption. Speechless and sick, our pasty left the box, the house, and when we leave Paris, we will say it is the most beautiful city in the, world, where sin is not only licensed, but pre-' tected by the government, in actions which all other civilized nations dare not refuse to punish. To what end is all this ? Amuse the people—keep their minds off the yoke' and the empire triumphs. I have seen the nobility of nearly all the Continent of Europe. Take any circle of the aristocracy of America—our old families where intellect has been inherited for genera tions—and the comparison will be wonderfully in our favor. Long live republican governments ! May the public schools and the Bible ever con trol our institutions, where the people, free, educated and unbiassed in religious or political considerations; must rule. All this distraction from my subject, a visit to St. Cloud, was caused by . the dome of Invalides, as 1 gazed at it from the grand piazza running along the front of the palace. Lot us enter the grand vestibule. On the right and left are two recumbent statues of Venus anti rsyche sleeping, by Huguenin, and in the centre Sappho by Pradier the last statue he exe cuted before his death. We stand at the foot of the Escalier d'Honneur on the Spot where, Queen Victoria was received at St. Cloud by the Emperor 1n 1855. A painting by Muller represents the event so truly that as we stand at the top of the :magnificent staircase and look down at the life 'size illitires placed over the foot of the stairs, we arMOBt Imagine the scene is real and that the Em peror Mad.

The Empress's reading room is very beautifully decorated with carving Io litne-Woixl and maple, the ceilings frescoed with Cupids and genil,by Dennis. From the win dows of this room we overlook the part reserve, where the Prince Imperial roams about with his tutor, governor, and sometimes the Empress. In one place he has a railway made by an engineer, the track double, switches to turn off - the trains, a depot for the cars to run into, and a regular steam engine to them. This toy occupies about an acre of ground. The Emperor's study con tains fine portraits. full-length, of Marie Antoi nette, her three children, the Princesse de Lam belle and Marie Leczinska in Gobelins tapestry. Josephine, Marie, Louise and Louis Philippe successively occupied this suite. In the library of twelve thousand volumes there is enough of the history of France to enlighten the budding Napoleon on the greatness of his ancestors, and. I hope, to teach him the uncertainty of human calculation: but, poor child, he is a constant suf ferer and needs no mentor to make him reflective and sad. It is the one bitter experience of his mother, the Empress of France and Queen of Fashion. E. D. W. EUROPEAN AFFAIRS ENGLAND. Great Alarm in Buckingham Palace— remark Attempt to Eire the Royal Mansion. LotwoN, April 22, 2 A. M.—An alarming report has just been received at the newspaper offices in this city. It is said that two men,supposed-to be Fenlans, were arrested at a late hour to-night, near the -(1 - Tants' door of Buckingham Palace. They were carrying a hamper,whlch, on being opened, was found to contain a gallon of liquid phospho rus, or "Greek fire." The parties made a desperate resistance, and were with difficulty secured. A third person, who was in company with those bearing the basket, fled as soon as the latter were seized and escaped all pursuit. he Great Scandal Case in High Life- Lord Willoughby and i?iadame d'Al. to y rat:. The following is the award of Mr. W. Vernon Harcourt, the arbitrator appointed by the Lord Chief Justice of England, in the case of the Lord Chamberlain of the Queen and his reputed wife, now separated: I think it right, under the peculiar "circum stances of this case, to state the principles on which my award Is based. I have been relieved by the consent of the Comtesse d'Alteyrac from caking into consideration in this award any claim for a pecuniary settlement upon her daughter. I have considered it my office to determine the question thus defined by the Lord Chief Justice at the close of the trial: "How much Fhotad be given, after this, long period of inti mate relations, to the lady bearing Lord Wil loughby's name and living as his wife?" In a question of considerable difficulty, and involving conflicting statements, it is satisfactory to be able to rest my decision on a basis of common agree ment between the parties. At the close of the trial, when the terms of arrangement were dis cussed and the reference was agreed upon, I Ind !het Mr. Coleridge, Q. C., the counsel for the Comtesse d'Alteyrac, used these words : I have said all along Colonel Dudley Carleton is a man of honor. He saw Lord Willoughby and was by Lord Willoughby put into communi cation with Madame d'Alteyrac, and the terms °tiered by Colonel Dudley Carleton Madame d'Alteyrac, through me, is perfectly willing to take, and to accept such terms as were offered by Colonel Dudley Carleton as reasonable and proper terms in such a caee as this. Here, then. I find a common ground of agree ment between the parties best acquainted with all the circumstances of the case in the terms author ized by Lord Willoughby, sanctioned by Colonel Carleton, and now admitted by Madame, d'Altey rac's counsel to have been fair and proper terms and such as a gentleman and a man of honor should have offered. I have made it my business to ascertain what these terms were, and upon these terms I ground this award. I have examined Lord Willoughby, the Comtesse d'Alteyrac, Colonel Carteton and Mr. Williamson, who acted as solicitor to Lord Wil loughby. It is much to be regretted that a paper of capi tal importance in this case, drawn up by Colonel Curltton and signed by Lord Willoughby at Lord Avelaud's house. in the presence of Lord Willoughby's solicitor. giving Colonel Carleton luthority to negotiate the separation on certain terms, is not forthcoming. This paper was signed about January ^_6,1865, and was left in the c, .Tidy of Lord Willoughby. In the absence of document I have requested Colonel Carleton to supply me with a memorandum, to the best of his recollection, of its contents. He has accord ingly furnished me with the following memoran dum, which he states contains, to the best of his belief, the substance of the authority given to him: B=ME! • . I authorize Colonel A. cilium to negotiate a Hepar *- lion upon the folio% ins team, between the Uontegee d' Alteyrae and niyeelf, viz., en annuity of £1,200 and a emu That Colonel Carleton's authority to treat was distinctly recognized by Lord Willoughby d'Eres ' by, and that the sum of £lOO a month was re garded as a proper allowance to be given, appears from a letter of Lord Willoughby a solicitor to Colonel Carlton, of the date of April 5, 1865, in which occurs the following Passage : If Madame d'Alteyrac is left in straitened cir cumstances this is solely due to her systemati cally and deliberately violating the arrangemdnt which was come to between Lord Willoughby and you on her behalf. Still, I advise Lord ‘Vil loughby to do what is right and proper, and I believe he is quite ready and willing to allow Madame d'Alteyrac for the present £lOO a month from February let last. Thia letter was written two months after the separation, and after the Comtesse d'Alteyrac had left Caen Lodge. It appears, therefore, that Col. Carleton had Lord 'Willoughby's distinct authority to offer these terms; that Madame d'Alteyrac did not ac cept them; and, further, that Lord Willoughby did not, in fact, carry them out or keep them open for her acceptance; for at subsequent periods the offers of settlement made were very much less and wholly Inadequate; and, as a fact, Lord Willoughby, since January, 1865, up to the time of the action, had only paid to the Comtedse d'Alteyrac a sum of .£3OO. I therefore find that the offer which Colonel Carleton was authorized by Lord Willoughby to make to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac a was substanti ally that of an annuity of £1,200 for her life, and ;a sum of £2,000 to be paid, down. I concur in the statementmade by Mr. Coleridge, on behalf of the Comtesse d'Alteyra c that at the time and ,under the circumstances this was a fair and pro rper offer. I make the following k' AWARD 1. Lord Willoughby d'Etesby ' shall pay to the Comtesse d'Alleyrac all: annuity. Of, -£L,2OO' for 'the term ofber life , the annuity to date from the Ist of April, 1868, and to be payable hy half yearly payments; and I hereby order Lord Wll - d'Eresby to pay<the said annuity ac rsl OS; ILO 0, Dtga t-it .4 A. D. WILLOUGIIBY cordingly; and I further award that the annuity shall be legally secured by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac for her :ifs. I further award that, in order to 'secure the said annuity to the Comtesse d' Al- Lyrae, Lord Willoughby d'Eresby shall, within two months from the date of this award, purchase from the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt a , lie annuity to the amouut of X 1,200 per an num, for the life of the Bald Comtesse d'Alteyrac, Ind shall convey the same to trustees on her be half, named in a deed annexed to the award, and signed by me. And I hereby order Lord Wil loughby d'Eresby within two months of the date of this award to purchase the said anntuty,and to transfer the same to the said trustees, and I order Lord Willoughby d'Eresby and the Comtesse d'Al teyrac within two months of Use date of this award to execute the said deed. And I farther award that if for any reason the said annuity shall not have been legally secured by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby before the last day of May in the year of our Lord 1868, then, in addition to the annuity made payable as aforesaid, a further sum of £lOO shall become due and payable by Lord Wil long hb,y d'Ereaby to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac upon the said last day of May, 1868, and a further sum of £lOO on the last day of each successive month, until such annuity shall be legally secured, and I hereby order that Lord Willoughby d'Eresby shall pay such additional sums at the dates afore said. These monthly payments are to be con sidered as additional to the payments due in re spect of the annuity, and as a penalty for delay in the legal settlement of the same, but are not to prejudice the right of the Comtesse d'Alteyrac to enforce the securing of the annuity by other means. As soon as the annuity shall be legally settled by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby the said ad ditional monthly payments of £lOO to cease. 2. And I further award that Lord Willoughby d'Eresby shall pay to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac a sum of £',oou, and I order Lord Willoughby d'Eresby to pay the said snm of .Cs,ooo'forthwith to the same trustees as those named in the deed annexed to this award, for and on behalf of the Comtesse d'Altcyrac.

Terrine Gale in Mobile Bay—Great Loss of Life and Property. om the Mobile (Ala.) Register, lath inet..l The strong wind which sprung up yesterday morning from the southward and eastward grad ually increases towards night into a gale. About seven o'clock in the evening the wind came in heavy gusts, the sky was overcast, and there was a very slight fall of rain. Between one and two o'clock the wind was at its height and blew violently. The lightning flashed, ac companied by loud and startling peals of thun der, and the rain poured down in torrents, flood ing the streets and rendering the majority of them impassable without the aid of boats. The storm was terrific, possibly the heaviest which has visited the city in many years. • A large dumber of trees were uprooted, and several houses were unroofed. One in the Sontto ern part of the city was blown down, killing onell of the occupants, a negro woman. Fences were"' laid low. sign -hoards carried away and other damage done. A flash of lightning struck the grocery store of Messrs. J. O'Reill & Co., N. E. corner of Commerce and Front streets, and com municating with the loose cotton in the second story, set sire to the building, which was soon In dames. The rain at this time had partially ceased but the wind still blew with greeltforce. The bells promptly sounded the alarm, and in a very short space of time the fire department was on the ground. Through their exertions the fire was checked, not however before it had destroyed the upper story of the building and part of the first lioor. The storm subsided about four o'clock this morning, and the sun rose brightly, dispelling all traces in the sky of the terrible night just passed. It is apprehended that much damage must have 'been done to the shipping.along the coast. liallread Accident.!

Mr. Sand ford, in attemptlet to avoid the latter stepped In front of the former:' as when the engineer saw him he was directly In front of the train. lb) lived for about fifteen minutes, but was insensi ble. Mr. Sandford was a brother of Michael Sandford, of this city, and well known here as a crack sportsman. Ho leaves a large family. Mr. Sandford bad for many years lived directly in the neighborhood of the cars, the M. and E. track passin' near hie house, and was usually very careful -g of approaching trains. The accident can only be ascribed to darkness and failure to see more than one train. FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL. The Philadelphia !Money Narke Bales at the Philadelphia /Rock Exchange,.

There are large sums being placed "on call" at 630.7,.% per cent, and the banks take about nil the good short mercantile paper presented. In trade circles there are many corn* plaints of dullness, but as political affairs become more settled and confidence in the perpetuity of the Govern ment restored by the removal of e very obstacle to recon• struction, a more enlivening and healthy state of affairs will exist.

A Ifni:. 21.- I The gold market has been strung to-day, and the fluctuations were from liff.f!, to 4119..1,1, wits the cloning transactions at Illlo s Loans were made at 2&-4 per cent.. for carrying, the floating supply of coin being tight. elle . gross deaf Jugs amounted to te40,3111;e00. the gold balances se siildeilfllie, and the currency balances to $1,9e0.000. The steamer Haramonia took out C3280.0e0 in specie. Money was in moderately good demand from the Stock Exchange, but the sup. ply was ample at seven per cent in currency, and the in dications are that the supply of loanable f ends at this . mi n e will be steadily augmented from this time forward f by the return flow of currency from the interior, but 1 at present the conditionof the market is such that any material increase in the demand would be followed 1 by a quiekenffigsf activity. The extreme distrust of last I week with respect to collaterals is gradually.paseing away, nut the banks are still yez v careful in their scrutiny of the speculative stecke, and there is a disposition shown rather to contract than to expand loans in this direction until the monetary situation becomes more settled. In the dis• count line there is almost total inaction, so far as the banks are concerned, and on the street Chet-claea com mercial paper is quoted at 749 per cent. 1 lie etoekniarset has been dull after the spasmodic excitement of yesterday, and the tendency of prices during U e day was somewhat droopin.

The temper of the street has changed considerably during the last sew daye, and there Is now considerable talk et an iudation of the currency under the radical pro gramme, in which event of course prices will rise with out regard to real values. The bulls and the bears will, however. alternately use conflicting arguments to intin care the mar .tet . in their own favor, , said olitsiders who -, venture within their ' retch will (Li they arenot exceptions to the rule) be crushed between the upper and nether millstones of the contending farces. 'Whether prices go up or down on the Stook Exchange is immaterial to the general pub lic. for it ii hardly, if at all, represented in Wall street at present; but those already actually interested on both . ides of the bell and bear contest will struggle hard for the mastery. Those in favor of currencviziflation,and they are many, may succeed in having it all their own way for a time, but a grand crash will finally overtake the market for the speculative railway, express and miscellaneofis stocks, and Its postponement f n one, two, or even three years, makes it none the lees certain in the end.

The returning_ ease la the' money market is undue= purchases by the Well street dealers in anti cipation of a rise, which will soon be favored both by an abundant supply of capital and the demand, for the reinvestment of the May interest on the' public debt. The amount falling due on the let proximo exceeds tyventrtive millions in coin, and it is probable that at least half of this amount will be employed in the purchase of new bonde. At the manse time the Treasury will be an al most constant buyer of seven-thirty notes until the whole of these are funded, and the amount remain ing outstanding on the Ist instant was $183,684,100. When these. are converted into bonds the funded debt will have reached its maximum, and the demand for the reinvestment of interest at home and abroad will have to be supplied by sales by investment holders, which will of course not be made finless the market price Wrens a sufficient temptation.
