No. 618 Jayne street Jean Knipeloam, The Springfield Republican has an interesting account, from a private letter of a recent visit to Zean Ingelow, the sweet English poet : "The long talked of visit to Mita Ingelow has taken place, and Was one of great pleasure. I found her not at all poetical looking (though possessing a good •and 'very trustful face) not by any means attract-. tive,and to sal extmorainary degree shy and timid 'with strangers. But as Svc grew better acquainted, she drew nearer to me, and the soul commenced to ,gleam and sparkle in and about her countenance and she conversed with greater fluency. Her heart •seems very' warm towards Americans, and she possesses many flattering evidences of their ap preciation of her efforts, in autograph letters :from a large number of our authors and author esses, welcoming her to their literary circle, and sending handsomely illustrated volumes of their Aown productions. She has an album of rare heads and faces--a gathering of her cotempo- Taries from various countries. I was introduced to Mrs. Ingelow, her mother, and my heart :warmed to her at once. She has a face brimful of loving kindness, and 38 a woman of great intelligence and culture, con versing with grace, and winning one Irresistibly 'towards her. She is of small stature, and between •isixty and seventy years of age, and while Miss Ingelow was absent fora few moments remarked: You have probably noticed that Jean is very shy and reserved, and I think that only through her :finger-ends could she have given vent to her •leart and soul; for I have learned more of her life and tastes through her writing than through years of companionship. Mrs. Ingelow showed :me the likeness of her eleven children,who looked .noble and gifted throughout. The eleventh, Maude, was very pretty and spirituelle, and with -a carelessly clasped bunch of wild dowers, looked the very embodiment of sentiment and romance.' —Ohio has refused to pass a bill to remove from °thee persons who aro unable to perform their duties on account of habitual Intoxication. :4 11 ; {S) DMW.I z/1 1/.11 I ti: LETTER FROM. PARIS. The Sudden Advent Of Rummer-Sun. day In Parie-The French Exhibition of Palritinge-Napoleon 1. and Napo. 'leen 11V.-The Frees, Law in the senate - Hitter Discussion - Grand Review of the Army. feorrespondenee or tee Philadelphia Evening Thatetin.i PAM, Tnetsday, May sth, 1868.--One of those midden changes to widchwe are habituated to the climate of Paris,hae plunged twat once from'our cold and chills Spring into the heat of Mid summer. We scarcely had a Spring day throughout the month of April. But the first of May burst upon us with a beauty worthy of its ancient reputation; and ever since the tem perature has gone on Increasing until It has now almost reached the broiling point. Paris, on Sun day keit, was a eight worth seeing by all strangers who desired , to seize at a glance the peculiar Characteristics of the Freud} capital and its pop niatien. The city Itself know in the prime of beauty of Its spring foliage, and nothing can look more attractive than our broad new avenues, with their long lines of horse-chestnuts in full leaf, stretching away into an unlimited Prospec tive of bright green verdttre. By the middle of the day on Sunday,countless thousands began to throng along all these thoroughfares. Multitudes of pedestrians and vehicles of every description might be seen wending their way to the Bois de Boulogne-where the races, now held thew lam sorry to say, every Sunday. attract hosts oinatives and foreign visitors, and among the latter not a few, I fear, both of Anuesicaes and English. The Champs Elysees wefe`another great centre for the holiday crowd, because there the annual exhibition of modern paintings is open gratis, on Sundays, in the Palace of Industry. The fifteen immenae sa loons were soon so crowded with eager 'visitors, that at an earls- hour the outer doors bad to be closed, and only opened occasionally during the day for the admission of fresh corners as those already inside streamed out at another exit, after they had satisfied their curiosity or when they could endure no longer the stifling beat created by the crowd and the sun's rays beating . upon the glass roof. I was more fortunate la my first visit to the Exhibition, having had the privilege of an entrie for the private view, the day before the opening, when the Imperial Fa mily and a few other persons only were present The little Prince Imperial had preceded his pa rents, and with his tutor was wandering gayly from picture to picture, especially delighted seemingly with battle views (of which there are always plenty in a French Exhibition), and scenes representing incidents in the life of Napoleon I. In one of the latter the great Em peror, followed only -by some half-dozen of .1° reille garde, has just shown himself to the troops stationed to arrest his march on the road to Grenoble, after the return from Elba. In a transport' of enthusiasm at the sight of their old commander, the men are throwing themselves ,on their knees before him, tearing off their white cockades and replenishing them with tri color ones, hid in their ;knapsacks. It was s curious sight to see the boy who expects to be Napoleon IV. standing gazing, as he did, at such an episode in the career of Napoleon I. He is a mild, rqeditative.looklng child, and, as it strikes me, has,4ways something of what Is called an "unhappy ? ' expression about his eyes, suggesting to one the idea that he is reserved for a life of severe trial. The Empress, who is always seen to great advantage on similar occasions, dressed in her very simple morning costume, evidently watched her boy with great fondness and fol lowed him with a mother's eye. At one moment, when she had her arm on the Emperor's, the couple stopped before a painting which occupies a conspicuous position In the grand saloon of honor. It is a painting of the battle of Sadowa, by Hoyden, a Prussian artist, representing the moment when Prince Frederic Charles and the 'Prince Royal met victorious on the heights of Chl um, the very centre of the Austrian position, for the first time, about four or five in the after noon, after having fought separately throughout the day. It is a striking picture, and I thought that as the Imperial couple stood before It, the Empress cast an anxious glance up to her husband's muting face, as though she guessed that the incident depicted might be big with the fate of the Napoleonic dynasty, and with her own and that of her boy. The exhibition itself seems to contain this year more than the usual number of interesting paint ings. But I 'shall reserve my remarks upon them until I have a little more time to examine - them. -The centre of the Palace of Industry , has been converted into a very beautiful garden, ornamented with fountains and statuary, and presents a very cool and pleasing appearance. An Interminable debate has commenced in the Senate on the new law of the Preps. The speeches, so far, are of the, most reactionary character, and it in most curious to hear an old and rabid legitimist, like the ()taunt Se:gur d'Aguesseatt, "imploring" the Emperor not to al low his government to be upset, "like that of the Restoration," by granting "too much liberty" to the Press ! The Count would, probably, make the same appeal against liberty of thought or expression to any government, whether republican, constitutional monar chy or a despotis m. Only stifle "liberty,' and he would rally to any form or any dynasty; and the Senate, which numbers a great many old women in its ranks, seems very muchlo coincide with him in opinion. The Emperor cries, I must go on or perish The Senate cries,lf you do go on,you will perish! And in this " fix" the Second Empire, placed in face of clamors tor more lib. erty, disordered finances and the battle of Sa dowa—finds it difficult to steer a straight course, and wavers end fluctuates in a way which makes it very hazardous to predicate what may or may not happen next. The Emperor has been paying great attention to the army of late, and has held almost daily re, views on a large scale. The Prince Imperial .18 now always present on.these occaslonthon horse back and in uniform. Yesterday there was. a" grand review in the Bois de Boulogne ; when , th„e Empress , also appeared on horaebackon un usual circumstance with her now, for elle was always a timid horse-woman, and has increased in embonpoint of late years. Yesterday, how ever, she rode by the side of the Emperor alOng the entire front of the lines,and,wae recetiad with thud acclamations by the treops. NuMerous summer camps bave also been formed in various parts of the'country, to practice, the new forms of drill and exercise. Both thO Eroperor and Em press visited the cainp Of St. Maur, near Yin cennes, the other day; and, in short, as I have PHILADELPHIA, ,MONDAY, MAY 18, 1868. eald, the army is not lost sight of, nor the idea forgotten, that it may be wanted ere long, either at home or abroad. Mile. Patti has been civilly married to the Mar quis de Caul. The religions ceremony , will take place after her engagement in London is over. I can only call your attention to the very in teresting account, published by the Malta Times, and which will doubtless be reproduced by tho London press, of the cordial meeting, and no less cordial farewell, between the British and Ameri can fleets, and Admirals Ferragut and Paget. With such demonstrations of good understanding heie in Europe, and dinners like that to ,Charles Dickens at home, there is, I trust, no fear for the Anglo•Saaon race, let the head of the Latin races lay what plots he may. ENGLAND AND AMERICA. The Pres* Dinner to Mfr. Diekene—lta Ltieet in liingiftnd—lFriendly Expres sional Toward the American People. The return of Mr. Dickens, and the accounts given of the events preceding lus departure from New York, produces the most friendly expres sions by the .English press .generally toward the people of America. iFrorn the London Times of May 6.1 It is about twenty-seven years since Mr. Chas. Dickens paid his first memorable visit to the United States. At that time very few English men had made the trip, and those who had were greatly struck with the peculiarities of manner sad tone presented by a newly-formed, self relying, energetic and pushing community, as compared with an old world that had long set tled on its lees. Nobody knows how much he enjoys in an old country,till he visits a new one, and then his previous blindness Is apt to be suc ceeded by a violent and - unreasonable reaction. Eveno large and liberal an observer of men d manners as Mr. Dickens could not a t help non ing, with disproportionate interest, the extravagances of that rude'and rough vanguard of civilization ever advancing , from the city to the wilderness. The difficulties were great in those days; the railways, though in advance of our OWD, were still new; the intercourse with the in tenor de pended chiefly on the rivers,and wild speculations in land and improvements gave employment to a class which has since found fitter and more lucrative materials for enterprise or gambling. We have only to consider the immense changes our own country has seen in the period to infer how much more use would be matie of the came favoring circumstances by a people like ourselves and of ourselves, but with more youth, life and liberty. If we have made good the pro cress due to twenty-seven years, we might have expected the United States to do fifty in the time. According to the philosophy and traditions of the Old World, one thing only was wanting to make the Americans really free of the great bro therhood of - nations, and sufficiently like our selves to share our best feelings, our confidence, and our affection. This was a great war—riot a succession of sanguinary squabbles with Indian tribes, or a eeriee of duels, with alternate success, on the broad ocean, with the old country. The alleged want has been supplied, and the United States have condensed into four years the dreadful ex perience and, the salutary schooling of a Euro pean century. Saints are rare; very- fine gentle- • men are observed when they occur; scholars claim to be few, and nobility and gentry are only found where they are raised; but soldiers are made wherever there is war, and everywhere they contribute at once to the bone; the nerve, and the finer tissues of society. But war itself, in its most general effects, chastises, sobers and softens humanity. An age fresh from its checkered experience will not talk so proudly of its pow ers, or so confidently at its destinies, or so arro gantly of its claims, as one that knows not the sad, supreme appeal. As far as concerns the special relations of the United States with this country, it is true there are questions still pend ing; but another fact is, we trust, of more prac tical importance. The steam bridge has brought over into England and placed everywhere in the -tracks of our Continental tourists immense numbers of Americans always anxious to mike ihe acquaintance of ' English people and ready to discuss even politics in a friendly spirit. They have no greater complaint to make than our English reserve and the smallness of the coteries into which the great mass of English so ciety appears to be divided. They come to-Lon don, and are disappointed to find that a single letter - of introduction 'will not open all the doors in the island. However, in spite of these and other impediments, there is much growing ac quaintance between Englishmen and Americans. Every American gentleman, and every family with the means, thinks it necessary to make the European tour, and carries home impressions, on the whole, not unfavorable to us and to our in . titivation& . - Our great novelist is just the man to note and to record the change of national manners and sentiment. Of course he is astonished, as from all accounts he was likely to be, at the now cities founded,the new regions reclaimed and inhabited, and the old cities so extended and dignified as hardly to be recognized. All this we are prepared for, and we ate also prepared' to find Mr. Dickens throwing his electric light on these material . changes. He tells us al ready, in the pleasantest possible manner, what he has observed—indeed, what has been forced upon him—in the heart and tem per of the people. That they are hospitable we . -all know. It is the profuse hospitality of our forefathers—the hospitality of those who hail visitors from an Old World, strange but dear to their fancies. Through this •hospitality Mr. Dickens sees more. He sees honesty, simplicity and true kindness; and he evidently feels himself what, perhaps, he did not feel twenty-seven years ago, thekinsman of his entertainers. Of course, he has best made much of, run after as no man ever was, feted, crowded, half smoth ered with attentions pressed upon him by an entire population wherever he went. He ex pected something of the kind, but it has surpassed his conceptions. His admirers—and who are not his admerers?—will be painedito hoar that he has been suffering during the whole of his four months' tour from what he supposed to be the American catarrh. One may be still more sorry to hear that at the age of 56 he should feel himself not, so young as he was at the previous visit. His readings were given under disadvan tages. But everybody felt It not only a point of honor, but also a great treat, and a very high ' privilege, to hear him. They would not allow themselves to bo disappointed, but made up for deficiencies, if any, by their own intense faith and eager zeal. He has found him self the herald of peace and the minister of union. It is not everybody whose impression we should accept as conclusive on so important a matter. Shall we take it on trust from Mr. Dickens that our American cousins and rivals do really under stand us, and wish to get on peaceably with us? Certainly he is no mean authority, and if we may take any;man's word we may take his. But,to the best of our knowledge, there ate no conflicting au thorities, and what Mr. Dickens says receives Im mensWorroboration from every other recent vis itor. The Americans assure thorn they will get on well with us if we will got on well with them, and there seems no reason to doubt it. It is not doubted, except by those who put themselves in a position to doubt' eVerything; by seeing, and knowing , as little as , they can about the'Ameri. cans. Strange indeed,ie it to. , hear confident and disagreeable criticism on the American character -and national 'i spirit .by persons , .who have r never • crossed the Atlantic; ,and . ,have made up their. minds never to do so on any :..account.;Nothing iseasier or pleasanter in;theae days, except to certain physical'constitutions, than a trip to , the States. It would cure a thou sand prejudiceis and rstva warmth and movement to many a'sittogisit mind.,' Indeed, nobody has a right to say a word . against our kinsmen there till be has seen them and.allowed them to speak for themselves. It is now a necessary part of a rilJok:i.foriDtilll MOW 414 political education, even if it suggest a few warn lags which we, as certainly they also, may find in the mutual comparison. Special Correspondence, of the Philadelphia Evening Wasorwaron, D. C., May 17th, 1868.—As after• a great battle it is interesting to go over the field and note the changes which have resulted from the strife—the fragments and wrecks of the fray, and even the unburied dead strewn broadcast around--so, after a great political contest, it is instructive to surrey the scene of strife and mark the Changes it has wrought. And, as after the battle the critics, study the causes which have given victory to one side and defeat to the other, it may also be profitable in politics to consider the cameo which have determined the result. In the cool of the morning after our defeat, then, let us analyze the motives which carried some of our trusted men over to the enemy's camp in the moment of our sorest need. As men act from mixed motives, we can, of course, trace but a part of the causes of our disaster, and 'must leave the rest to the slow development of time. At the head of the movement stands the Chief Justice. A man of acute mind, but of an ambition so absorbing that it often disturbs his judgment; one whose vanity is easily wounded, and brooks not the advancement of others; whose mind has long been turned toward the Presidency as the object of its pursuit, and has become warped and embittered by disap pointment. Feeling keenly the effront of being, twice set aside for Lincoln, his feelings toward .. the Republican party have since been far from cordial. His disaffection has of late been deep ened by the certainty that Grant's popularity has destroyed his last chance for the nomination by the organization with which he has hitherto been Identified. He has kept up friendly relations with John son, and was from the first opposed to impeach ment., His dislike of the measure and its sup porters was intensified by the manner in which his pretensions to a right to advise upon law and to rule interlocutory questions were received. It is now universally conceded here that he is at the head of the recusants. The movement centres naturally around him. It is anti-Wade, but in a far greater degree an anti-Grant movement. Chase, Fessenden, Trumbull, Henderson and Grimes, one and all, dislike the introduction into our politics of the soldier element, and, much as they detest Wade, feel that the popularity of the new crop of politicians who have sprung from the ranks of our victorious soldiery is far more dangerous to their supremacy in political life. Each of thein is opposed to the nomination of Grant, and in Fesaenden's bosom rankles the re collection of his unsuccessful rivalry with Wade for election to preside over the Senate. They found in 'lmpeachment an opportunity to effect a separation from a party they could no longer control, and instead of each obeying inde pendently the dictates of his judgment, as they must have done had they acted judicially, they came together in secret caucuses and concerted a simultaneous treachery. Lacking two votes of the number necessary to secure an acquittal, they used all their influence to induce some of the more obscure Senators to adapt their views. To make all rare more was needed. The Presi dent and his Cabinet must know how many votes they could count on, and how many must be bought. So, early in the trial, Johnson was informed that these five would vote for acquittal, and was posted as to what others could most easily be secured. The result is known. Ross and Fow ler, both of whom had been committed to im peachment, were unable to resist the influences which were bronght to bear. But it does not appear that the leading recre ants failed to make market of their action. A number of the Missouri delegation, as I am in formed by one of the Managers, was told by Senator Henderson that the President had agreed, if acquitted, to make an entirely new Cabinet in harmony with the wishes of the Republican Sena tors who aided him. And in this way they are to get the sinews of war to organize their third party. I give this statement to be taken with due al lowance for the imperfections Of hearsay testi mony. I was informed by the,Manager,who had it from the Missouri member himself. But if there were to be no stipulations, what need that the President should know before the trial was half over that these Senators would go in his favor?—unless, indeed, it was only that he might exert himself to secure the other two votes. I have also at second-hand from Judge Chase, that he astonished an ex-member of Congress from Ohio, an old friend of his, who came on to Washington a short time ago, by telling him that he (Chase) expected to be the Democratic candi date for the Presidency, and failing in that,to run on an independent ticket, and at all 'events he meant to kill off Impeachment So much for the Chase movement so far as It has yet developed itself. What it will result in remains to be seen. The old Democratic party often experienced similar defections in its pow erful days, the result of disappointed ambition, but they never impaired its vitality, nor kept it from retaining its ascendancy. Its final decay came from altogether different causes. We have only increased in unity and cohesion by reason of this treachery. the track of disclosures which will be extremely unpleasant for the President and same Republi cans who voted to acquit him, and they throw out hints that they are likely to make it very hot for the Chief Justice, but it is yet too early for them to go into particulars. While the High Court: stands adjourned all eyes aro turned, toward Chicago. The first moments of disappointment at the vote of yesterday being over, a better feeling prevails. The Southern States will be admitted and the two-thirds majority in Congress increased instead of diminished. It is even said that if Johnson forgets his caution in exultation at his escape, it is not too late to present new articles, • and try him in a Senate where Chase, Perisenden & will be powerless to save hlm. Nrcnor.s. Grant and Victory. (From Td.day's New York Tribune.) The Republicans who initiated and have sus tained this prosecution have relieved themselves from a grave responsibility. For years,Andrew Johnson has been the terror of the Southern loyalists and the' chief obstacle to the rapid progresB of peaceful and loyal_ Bacon atruction._ Thousands have impatiently' mar mured--"Why •is he not impeached 4 and removed ?" It was in vain that We urged that this was a job—that it was likely to fail if attempted; and that such failure 'would only Increase his power for evil. At length,he rashly struck the law and the law-makers a blow hi the mouth by his second removal of Stanton ,*'TES THE BATTLE. Bulletin.] The Managers are confident that they are on and appointment of Lorenzo Thomas to fill his place ad interim. It seemed to most of as that this was a challenge that must be accepted, no matter with, what result. To vindicate and' uphold the laiv may not always prove practicable; but noth ing will excuse a failure to try. So we have tried and not succeeded; but the result is quite other than failure. The Repub lican party stands for ever relieved from all re eponsibility for Mr. Johnson's future-misdeeds. Let him now wrest the command of the 'Army from General . Grant—let him wield the Military as wet! Civil power tot the tioverment in the interest of Rebellion and Aristocracy— let him obstruct to the utmost the return of the Southern States, free and loyal, to the Councils of the Republic—the country the world will hold us wholly blameless. Messrs., Chase, Fessenden•& Co. have taken the Old Man of the Sea upon their shoulders:-We shall see how they bear up under the - LAM They have nine months ahead of each responaibility ad we do not covet—we shall be agreeably disappointed if it does not break them down. Thanks to Infinite Mercy, there lo an ordeal before ns in which a concurrence of two-thirds is not required to issue s 'righteous verdict. Let Messrs. Chase, Fessenden & Co. take care of their man Johnson, while we organize for and make certain the joyful advent of Grant and Victory! Chase, Fowler and now. [Flom to•day'e N. Y. Tribune.] It must be evident that the immediate respon sibility of the defeat on Saturday rests upon Ed mund 0, Roes of Kansas. Trumbull, and Feseen den and Grimes, and Fowler, gave at least brief notice of their intention to vote for the acquittal of the President. Even Mr. Van Winkle, who had written an opinion In favor of the eleventh article, has made it perfectly plain that he can argue one way and vote another and that he had so much contempt for his own intellect that he held it a moral duty to vote against its convictions, on the ground that they must inevitably be false; but Mr. Roes played the part of Stanley on Bosworth field. He promised fidelity almost up to the moment that he broke faith. On Saturday morning the rumor was current that Mr. Ross would play false; but it was hardly credited. HoW ho would vote was not positively known to the Republican Senators until after 12 o'clock, when he announced his intention for acquittal. Who could foresee or prevent such shame less treachery as this ? Impeachment had the law on its side, the facts on its side, it had the consciences of thirty-five Senators; but it had not Mr. Ross. This gentleman was sent from Kansas to the Senate, not because of his great mind or his great learning, but because he , was willing to serve the railroad interests of that State, and could be depended upon to act as the agent of these powerful Corporations. He was the weak point in our lines—weaker because it had been thought that his constituency would keep him strong. Impeachment was' thus lost by an accident—for Mr. Rosa was nothing more. Of Mr. Fowler, we have already stated that he was an early and apparently earnest advo cate of Impeachment—that ho found fault with the failure of the Hot& to impeach in Decem ber—that, on the 10th of January 'last, at a meeting of the Republican Committee at Sena tor Morgan's, he saw fit, without being in any manner incited to do so, to declare that there was little use in Republican efforts :so long at Andrpw Johnson was allowed to remain in the kite House, and that the bleod • of loyal men in the South, daily slain by implacable rebels, would rest on the souls of those Members of Congress who should persist in obstructing the impeachment and removal of said Johnson. There may be 'some way of reconciling this speech with honesty in the vote given by Mr. 1 ogler on Saturday; but it has not occurred nor been suggested to us. Mr. Fowler, - too, kept his purpose to 'vote as he did from the knowledge of Republicans so long as he could. The mon who has done more than all others, unless in a pecuniary way, to secure this result, is Chief Justice Chase. .He decided the vote of Mr. Van Winkle.- He did his utmost—happily in vain—to carry offillessrs. Anthony. and Sprague. We doubt that Mr. Henderson would have voted as he did but for the Chief Justice's exertion& Those exertions saved Andrew Johnson from th-:. verdict which we feel that he has worked ht . krd and successfully to deserve. Terrible Boller Explosion in Chicago— Two lien Seriously Injured. [From the Chicago Republican of 16th.] About half past one o'clock yesterday afternoon the boiler of a pile driver belonging to a Mr. Linton exploded with what will probibly prove fatal results to the engineer, and the serious wounding of the fireman. At time of the ac cident the boat was lying in the South branch, lust east of the Hahltead street bridge, engaged in pile driving. But two persons were on the float, when sud denly the boiler exploded; the fragments injured both parties, neither of whose names could be ascertained. At first it was supposed that both men were in stantly killed, but fortunately this • rumor was proved false., So badly injured was the engineer, however, that it was supposed he could not live but a few minutes. It was found that the skull bad been fractured, the fissure being four inches in length, through which the brain protruded. He was also scalded severely in the arm and breast, and both eyes were entirely destroyed. The doctorsgave as their opinion that he would not survive the night out. The fireman was badly, though not seriously wounded In the face and left shoulder, and was conveyed to his boarding house. The physi cian who attended him thanks that he will sutler most from the inhalation of steam, although seri ous results are not expected. This boiler, which is said to have been quite an old one, was 12 feet in length. Of this, a part, say 4 feet,remains on the boat, the appearance of which indicates that the boiler iron was quite weak and unsafe. A portion of the boiler, 8 feet in length, was blown over a schooner lying in the river, completely cutting In two her main mast, and landing In a pork packing establish ment, and smashing things generally.
