Secretary Pro tern LETTER FROM PARES. teorrestendesture of the Fhthelleblita Evenitsa Bulletin.) Penis, Trieeday, April 21, 1868.—Yesterday morning the Corps Legislatif renewed its sit tings after the Easter vacation, and yesterday evening the little Prince Imperial returned to Pad!, after big vacation trip among the. Bailors and middies, or mouthes, as the French term them, of Brest and Cherbourg. • Another noteworthy fact of the same day is that 'the Emperor Napo leon 111. thereon completed the eixtioth year of his age, and what may • well be called the twentieth year of his reign; for if he did not begin actually to feign from Decemher, 1848, he got hie toot on the first atop of the ladder on that day, and M. Thiers might then have cried !Em pire est fait with almost as much truth as he did three years,aftetwards. Twenty years! It is a long time.--fOr a French reign. And the Empe ror Napoleon lIL is now sixty, and Napoleon IV. (that is to be) is twelve years old.. In three years more (if I remember rightly the terms of the Act of Succession and the Regency bill) the Prince will be declared of age and associated as ninches possible with all the acts of the Government by his father, who will thus endeavor to seat his successor firmly in the sad dle ere be himself saccumbe to the common lot o humanity. That being accomplisher' (if he lives to accomplish it), his work will then have been done as far as he can do it, and the final result mustrest with fate and with the fusare. 0; course, much will depend on the character of the son, and on his power and capacity to main min in his own person the prestige of the Napo- Icons. At present the effort made is evidently to obtain for him a hold upon tun a at of the rising generation. Here in Paris he is enured at the Lycee or College Boaaparte, aid made the founder of Orphau Asylums aril other juvenile charities. He has a sort of little regi ment of his own in the army, composed of en fanrs tie whom he drills and puts through their exercises; and now he has just to.t,:m sent down to conethate the good will of the juvenile portion of the maritime population. Ali through his tour, she latter have, natured) enough, played the prominent part. You ug eitis have kissed him and pre ss:rota him with bouquets, and gone away no doubt believing themselves devoted imvredists. Tise boys of the naval school* as at Brest fur iu - stance, have said, or been instructed to say. that they are "determined to serve him in the future with fidelity and devotedness." AU this reads and sounds very promising, and his mother probably believes in it, and trusts to it for the fate of her boy. And yet if you were to ask any moderate and impartial Frenchman (supposing such a thing to exist), whether he thought there existed in France any national attachment for this young scion and for imperial institu tions-1 mean an attachment of such a nature as the American people feel for their government and their institutions—the reply would baevita bay be a negative shake of the head. The real truth is that imperialism has been established In France quite as much, or more, by force of cir cumstances and force of personal character, as by the national will. The nation ha's accepted, rather than chosen, the regatue under which it lives; and the permanency ef the latter will de pend far more upon the continuance of these cir cumstances, and that force of character which originally gave it birth, than upon any attempts to excite fictitious and delusive exhibitions of personal attachment, or antiquated displays of loyalty. The Consiitutionsel asserts Ina highly semi-offi cial tone, that "not one word" on the subject of mutual disarmament has passed between the cabinets of Berlin and Paris. Unhappily, we have not the slightest need of the stilted and . preten tious utterances of the above journal, to feel con vinced that neither France nor Prussia, nor in deed any European State whatever, has any in tention of abandoning the suicidal policy of an "aimed peace." It is said that one part of the mission of the Danish Minister of Wsr, who was over here lately, Was to compare practically the French Chassepot guns with the American Remingtons, which have been adopted by his own govern ment. It is said, too, that the investigations of the same 31thister, and the remarks he has made in consequence, have produced such aiffect on the military authorities here as to decide them upon giving a large order for the American wea pon. If America can not only set the example of disarming herself, but at the same time supply arms to Europe, who has the folly to persist in her armaments, surely the transatlantic triumph will be complete. Slowly, but steadily, the force of example must tell. In England we already see its effects, and in this country we may, ere long, have a Legislature which will not be content merely with admiring American institutions, but will insist upon imitating them in spirit, at least, if not exactly-1n form. Viscomte Kervignen has just been acquitted by the Correetional Police Court of his wholesale defamation of the Paris press. The jualgracest is universally regarded as scandalous, and appealed against to the Court of Caseation. A curious example has Suet occurred of the working of the advertising system in the Parisian journals. The custom is to farm oat their adveta tieing columns to companies. One of these latter has now got bold of no less than eighteen of the chief newspapers of the capital. The other day, its agent waited upon the managers of the Baden- Baden gambling tables, and of the races of that placer, and "demanded" his ad vertisements. The answer given was that the ad vertisement. would be arranged without .the in tervention of the Company. Need-day the agent again presented him elf and warned the Baden manager that unless he -gave- immediate orders for the advertisements and paid for them at once, not only should none be inserted in any one of the eighteen chief- newspapers of Paris, but that no writer In those journals should be allowed to insert a single line malting mention of Baden- Baden, its tables, or its races' And it appeara that the Company's powers extend even to this ; for by their agreement to lease'their adver tising columns, the journals Mud themselves not to speak of establishments which ought to advertise, but do not. The Baden Manager at first refused to, give way, and said he should economize 10,000 f.; but I hear be- has been since obliged to knock under to this monopoly of publicity. A singular declaration was made yesterday at one of the Paris Police Courts- A utp4berof prisoners, all foreigners, were, brought up for fighting in the streets. The row hadbeen very considerable, um or a dozen indivhiusik, having been engaged on each side, in the Avenue Marigny, ono of .the most fashionable quarters of Paris. All the culprits proved to be Scotch- PHI, LADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 7, 1868. men or Englishnien , and a sergent-de ville, one of the captors, on being questioned by the magistrate, deposed that ''he was ready to certify, from long experience, that fights between the Scotch and English were con stantly occurring in the Champs Elysdes; that the Scotch In Paris were always ready to quarru; with the English about nothing, and that the English were equally ready to have it out wit's them." The magistrate expressed his astonish ment, and said he could understand such a state of things between English and Irish, bat was quite at a loss to account for it between the two classes of Britishers. Perhaps the reason in the above case was that both , parties were equally drunk. Jules Fevre is to be admitted a member of the French Academy on Thursday next. Atter ad mission ho will have to be presented to the Em peror at the Tuileries. The interview, one would think, must be rather =harassing to both par ties. • , The Letters From Dr. Livingstone. The London Telegraph says: "The promised despatches from Dr. Living stone mentioned in dir-Roderick Murchison 's letter, have now been received at the Foreign Office. Interesting as every line and word must be which thus comes to us, however, the public must not expect too much from the documents which are soon to see the light. The letters given to Bunduki, the Arab trader, and brought down by him to the coast, are, first of all, fifteen months old. 'Bundulti' means, as all Anglo-Indians will know, nothing else than 'son of a-gun.' It would be the equivalent ) in African jungles, of Leather t•tocking's tovbrzguet of 'La Longue Carabine' upon the American prairies. The letters brought uy BuLdukl will not be very rich in geographical .)r ethnological details, They lefs the good Doc :or in the open and unknown country between Luke Nyassa and Lake Tanganyika, on the line the be inning of which Mr. Young traced the xplorcr s track, and was then obliged to turn r,aek. Dr. Livingstone would certainly strike the great Lake Tanganyika and double its southern and .-ttstward or westward. He would probably,in like manner, attempt to go round toe nc,thern ex tremity; but whether he would shape bis course hence for Baker's Lake, or Speke's Lake, or Zanzibar, is not and cannot be known, nor will these letters help us much to know. If they id, supplies and assistance would be sent : for it s pretty certain that Livingstone must be hard up for stores and viaticum of all African sorts, c. , berever he be at this moment; one untoward incident being only too certain—that he had lost Lis medicine chest. But that he was perfectly -tie and sound, far past the scene of his imagi nary murder, the letters now received, if proof were necessary, most distinctly show. Of course Africa is not Bt. James's street in nolnt of safety ..nd comfort; but from Tanganyika Livingstone would know his way home almost as well 4s a groveler' from Boodle's to Charing Cross. On the 21st of April a letter was received in Edinburgh from Dr. Livingstone, by a friend of !he celebrated traveler. The following are ex tracts : "Couerity or TIM Criterra., Nov. 10, 1866. It has been quite impossible to send a letter cos stivise ever since we left the Rovnma. The Arab slave-traders take to their heels as soon as t !hey hear that the English are on the road. lam a perfect bugbear to them. Eight parties thus skedaddled, and last of all my Johanna men, frightened out of their wits by - stories told them by a member of a ninth party who had been plun dered of his slaves, walked off and left me to face the terrible Mazitu with nine Nassiek boys. The tear which the English name has struck into the souls of the slave-traders, has thus been au incon venience. I could not go round the nortbiend of the lake forfear that my Johanna men, at sight of danger, would do there what they actually did at the southern end,' and the owners of two dhows DOW on the lake kept them out of sight lest I should burn theneas slavers, and I could not cross m the middle. Rounding the southern end, we got up Kirk's range and among Mengel:4a not yet made elavesellers. This was a great treat., tor, like all who have not been contaminated by tbat blight, they were very kind, and, having been worried enough by unwilling Sepoys and cowardly Johanna men, I followed my bent by easy marches among friendly, generous people, to whom 1 tried to impart some new ideas in re turn for their hospitality. The country is ele vated, and the climate cool. One of the wonders told of us in successive Pillages was that we -lept without fires. The boys having blankets did not need fire, while the inhabitants, being scantily clad, have their huts plastered inside and out, and even the roofs, to make themselves comfortable. Our progress since has been slow, from other atd less agreeable causes. Some parts have been denuded of food by marauding Mazitu or Zulus; we have been lain to avoid these, and gone zigzag. One we nearly walked into the hands of a party, and several times we have been detainekl by rumors of the enemy in front. January, 1867. —I mention several causes of delay. I must add the rainy season is more potent than all, except hunger. in passing through the Babies country we found that food was not to be had. The Babies are great slave-traders, and have, in consequence, little industry. This seems to be the chiCf C41:1138 of their having no food to spare. The rains, too, are more copious than I ever saw them anywhere in Africa; but we shall get on in time. February I.—l am in Bemba or Lobemba , and at the chief man's place, which has three stockadesi around it, and a deep, dry ditch around the inner one. He seems a fine fellow, and gave us a cow to slaugh ter on our arrival yesterday. We are golugt to hold a Christmas feast off it to-morrow, as I promised the boys a blow-out when we came to A place of plenty. We have had precious hard iIIICS, and I would not complain if It had not been gnawing hunger for many a day, and our bones sticking through as if they would burst the skin. When we were in a part where game abounded, I filled the pot with a first-rate rifle given me by Captain Fraser, but elsewhere we had but very short rations of a spe cies of millet called 'macro,' which passes the stomach almost unchanged. The sorest grief of all was the loss of the medicine box, which youeiriend at Apothecaries' Hall so kindly fitted up. All other things I divided among the bun dles, so that if one or two were lost we should not be rendered destitute of such articles; but this 1 gave to a steady boy, and trusted him. Be exchanged for a march with two volunteers, who behaved remarkably well, till at last hungry marches through dripping forests, cold, hungry nights, and fatiguing days, over came their virtue, and • they, made off with 'Steady's' load—all of his clothes, our plates, dishes, much of our powder s and two guns—and it was impossible to trace them after the tint drenching shower, which fell imme diately after they had left us. The forests are so dense and leafy that one cannot see 50 yards on any side. This loss, with all our medicine, fell on my heart like a sentence of death by fever, as was the case with poor Bishop Mackenzie; but .I .shall try native reme dies, trusting ELim who has led me hitherto to help me fatal.'

" l awn, LIVINGSTONE,” OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. American impeachanent—.lniperial Miln% In she N evil Indict. The Paris Monde remarks on the slight interest which the trial of President Johnson seems to xcite In the United States, the whole proceed irgs being "marked by an almost entire absence of unexpected incident." The French writer seems to think that the judges have already made up their mindshew to vote, but that the numbers are so nearly balanced that the final result cannot be foreseen. The Gazette des Etrangere publishes the follow ing from :Licata written by the Empress Eugenie: 1 do not like this noise that is made respecting my visit to Amiens. In that act there was nei ther courage nor merit; It was only a simple duty arising from my position, and which I am very well pleased to have fulfilled. Do not, then, speak to me any more of heroism. I have saved no one, and many a poorpatient even must have bten greatly incommoded by the preparations made in the wards for my reception. Let us re serve grand phrases for great acts—for example, to extol the sublime devotedness of. the holy women who are not satisfied with visiting the sick during an hour, but who tend them until health is restored or death arrives. The Memorial Diplomati7ue reports: A letter which we receive from Copenhagen states that the object of the visit of General de Itaiteloeff to Paris, was to ask the French government whether its intention was to nee the right .of option secured to it by treaties respecting the Island of Saint Croix in the West Indies. M. de Raasloeff, who for a number of years represented Denmark at Washington, was the active negotiator of the cession of the island of St. Thomas to the United States. The right of resum ing possession of the first named island, reserved to France, prevented the arrange ment from being so extensive as the state of the Danish flounces rendered desirable. The Cabinet of Washington was quite disposed to eurchaee St. Croix as well as the other, but wished first to be assured that it would nortm ox posed to a difference with France. The Danish Minister of War was therefore commissioned to lay before the Cabinet of the Tuileries the desire of the Government at Copenhagen to be informed of its intentions in the matter. According to the communication mentioned above, the General carried back with him the assurance that the trench government would examine the question with the care it deserved, and that in a very short lithe its determination would be communicated. The suit brought by the Montmorency family against the Prince de Tallyrand-Perigord, con testing his right to bear the title of Duke of Montmorency, conferred upon him by the Em oeror, came before the Court of Cessation, in Paris, on an appeal against the declaration of •ncompetency made, by the imperial Court of Paris. The Court decided that a distinction must be made between a name and a title; that decrees authorizing changes of the former are open to contestation by the parties Interested; but that, on the contrary, the conferring of a title is a sovereign act,un act which cannot be opposed be fore the judicial authority. In consequence, considering that the decree of the 14th May, 1864, conferred not the name of Montmorency, but the title of Duke, which is very different, the court rejected the appeal.

Accordingly, plain-clothes officers were stationed in that part of Pimlico which is close to Backinghaua Palace. having orders to stop and question all suspicious-looking persons who might be seen conveying any mysterious brindles or, packages in the direction of Pimlico. Several of those of ficers extended their ground of observation along and around the palace railing, watching par ties coming from the direction of the Mall, as well as from Birdcage-walk. Sergeant Langley and Constable M'Donnell were of the party, and about half-past eight in the evening they saw thrt c men of the laboring class carrying, or rather dragging along a large and apparently heavy hamper close to the palace, on the Pimlico side. The lights at this portion of the park near the Palace, unlike the more dangerous parts, are very numerous, and the officer& had full opportunity of watching the movements of the three men. The latter laid down the hamper frequently, changing sides, talked, looked up at the Palace,then went on, and then laid theitamp er down again. All this helped to make up the minds of Langley and M'Donnell that all' was far from being right; and probably' having the dearly bought lesson taught by Clerkenwell—that delays are dangerous—before their eyes, they at once went up to the men and asked them their names, busi ness and destination. Unsatisfactory replies were given, and, after a little parley, the officers seized the men—M'Donnell taking one ; and Langley two. A fierce struggle ensued; the men attacked the police with desperate violence, and the latter as desperately held their prisoners. Sergeant Langley knocked down one of the men with a blow, which had the 'effect ofgivieg him a chance of escape, which ho was not slow to profit by, and scampered off, as fast as his leg 9 could carry him. The other two men were secured, and, with assistance, brought to King Street Police Station, Westmin ster. The hamper was also brought to the sta tion. It was found to be eased with tin, water proof, and.nearly filled with water. In the water were two large jars or bottles, containing what, upon examination, proved to be Greek fire. The prisoners, when at the station, refused to give their names or any account of themselves. They are poorly-clad Melt laborers. No charge was entered against them on the charge sheet, pending instructions from Sir, Richard Mayne. Martial Law In Tennessee—&n Appeal to Governor Brown The Knoxville Whig, Golcrnor Brownloir's journal, contains the follow g: We present an importan document belOw. The Governor prepared the first draft of a proc lamation, covering the whole ground in this matter, the week before this Congressional docu ment was ,received. He is pleased, however, to be backed np, in , his views and , purposes with such a document as this. The late Militia Ac reduced the pay of privates and officers so lo - that men could not serve. It is not the purpos , of the Governor to call out troops under this act but to call out otherwise, and to rely upon the loyal people of the State to sustain' him : ' WASHINGTON, D. 0., April 21, 1868—Dear Sir: As constituents identified with you in the success of your administration, we beg leave to call your attention to what 'cannot have escaped your no tice, the disorders prevalent In certain , localities of our State.

Chase and Tilton—The Chief Justice _ . Alakes a Declaration. Mr. Theodore Tilton's attack upon Chief Jus tice Chase has elicited a letter from Mr. W. Brown, who, in the Lexington (Ky.)" States - man, nays he had frequent interviews with Mr. Chase during the month of April, and claims to be able "to imlicate his position with positive certainty." On the 17th ult. Mr. Brown called on Mr. Chase,, and what follows we give in the former's own Fords; "Very soon atter I entered the room, the Chief Justice asked me If I had seen the article. To an affirmative answer he replied : 'Mr. Tilton has cone me great injustice. He came to my house under the garb Of friendship, and I talked freely to him. old him what 1 had often told you, that I must be an upright judge, and my judicial duties prevent my being as available a candidate of the Republican party as other men in its ranks. This is all I Enid to him, and his additional state ments were unauthorized by me. They may have been honest conclusions, but I gave no grounds for them.' After some further conver sation the same evening; he remarked: '1 am a thorough Radical, but lain no extremast.' " Mr. Brown says that the Chief Janice holds firmly to three cardinal ideas: universal suffrage, universal amnesty, and the maintenance of the public credit. On the financial question, Mr. Chase said to his visitor: "If I bad control of the government I would resume specie payments to-morrow. I could .do it successfully, for our credit Is unlimited. Indi viduals could not long afford to keep their gold idle or in an unproductive form. Under my policy they could loan It for more than green backs, and ita purchasing power would be no greater." The writer concindes by saying that Mr. Chase knew nothing of his intention to publish the sub stance of the several interviews. Miss Edith Abell's Debut. Opera goers have been mildly excited for a few dela past, over the announcement that a new aspirant for the honors of the lyric stage would, last evening, make her first plunge into that sea of art which has wrecked so many adventurers, while it has carried others on to fame and for tune. Anticipator was more eager because the whisper had gone around that the debutante would leave an elevated social circle to step upon the stage, and rumor had accredited her with powers so excellent that it was believed the loss to society would be an immense gain to art. While it is true that rumor in this instance partly retains its characteristic exaggeration, it is also true that the expectation was in some measure realized. The :Bohemian Girl was presented last evening at the Academy of Music. The occasion was Mr. Castle's benefit. A very large audience was present, and as the curtain rose upon the second act, the curiosity of the audience was manifested in a buzz of expec tation. Miss Edith Abell, the debutante, lay stretched upon the conch. Theoretically she was asleep; practically, we have no doubt that her heart palpitated almost audibly, and she was keenly sensitive to the horrors of the situation. As she, arose to greet "'Thad deus" a Philadelphia andience for once forgot its churlish coldness and fairly overwhelmed her with applause. The hearty good will with which she was received must have convinced her that every heart represented by that multitude of up turned faces, was warm with kindly sympathy for ber,apd that her faults would be pardoned as readily aS her real merit acknowledged. "The re ception was creditable to the humanity and good nature of those who tendered it. Miss .Abell Is an absolute blonde, petite In per son, and with a fine figure—displayed to the utmost advantage last evening by an exquisitely tasteful costume ; she is graceful and vivacious, with a certain piquant simplicity of manner that completely won over every surly cynic in the au dience who had not a pre-determination to be pleased. Of Miss Abell's qualifications for the position she has assumed in the lyric drama, there can be no doubt, after her performance mat evening. Under any circutristances,—even if she had displayed but little ability, it would hardly be fair to condemn her upon a first hearing. Something would be due,to courtesy as well as to honest tact. But the debut was emphatically a success, and the most careful critic would not find his rigid desire for veracity at war with his good nature. In the first place, Miss Abell displayed hLs-, trionic powers of such a high character that it was difficult to free the mind from the impression that she must have bad experience at least in this branch of her newly accepted art. In some few instances there was observable a stiffness and want of ease; but for the moat part the novitiate acted with grace and power, and, if indeed, this be her, "that appearance on any stage," she gave evidence of the possession of ability as an actress which experience will develop far beyond that belonging to the majority of the lyric sisterhood. There were one or two stage tricks which might have been dispensed with to advantage, but time and larger opportunity will doubtless suggest such an improvement, and the performance, as a whole, is worthy of warm praise. Miss Abell's voice is a pure soprano; sweet, \ itexible, welt-trained, and of considerable coin- Tri the song "I dreamt that I dwelt in Marble Halls" a certain roughness was perceptible, but i this s wholly attributable to the very natural agitation occasioned by a first attempt to sing before the footlights. As the performance pro ceeded her yoke became more and more pleasing. and in the latter part of the last act its finer qnalities were entirety obvious., Mi Abell's voice is rather light, lacking power, but this quality will come with time and practice. Upon the whole she has grest reason to be proud of her, success,• and to sage assurance from it that her bearer perceived la her qualities which giVe positive praialre (*tient things in the , fetture, heartily eon gratulating ber, we indulge the regret -that oho Old not aPPcar etr.,,lit „.at*t.ar so: that she could have worded; opper. trinity to hear her , • „ be tquAdatto#R4oo.l4l4 rotthe now oiero honin 111:11141* into ', : /t. wilt bet,l2o by 80 fe4t, and the 000 , AllO,. tOrifeetAiten- bs , ,. 80 feet In i Widglt ttgl i irk . ***Olt= 80 tlaot equate..
