Tbc exhibition at the Academy,
The excellent collection at the Academy rc
mnine accessible for the rest of the present week.
As the pleasantest and coolest place of intelieo
| tual cnlertainment for day or evening which the
j city atforda, we may commend it to the good peo
| pie who And themselves still Philadelphians at
the commencement of the summer term. For
the connoisseur, there is material for prolonged
study in the eclectic natnre of the exhibition. It
happens that the present year has offered to the
Directors a rather unnsal variety oPworks from
ihc English, French, German and Belgian schools
Home art, meanwhile, without being neglected,
is everywhere brought into immediate contrast
with selected foreign pictures.
American art is largely devoted, as we ail
know, to landscape painting. The exhibition
contains,besidcs works already reviewed in these
columns, and besides some interesting examples
from other American cities, scenery-pictures by
such old neighbors as Edmund D. Lewiß, Kusseil
Smith, Paul Weber, Joseph R. Evans, and George
F. BensclL
The test work by Lewis is his mountain lake,
hanging in the northwest gallery. Lewis has the
truo eye and tact of a landscape painter. He
selects well, and groups his incidents with a
knowledge of effect which recalls the skill of a
practised playwright His dizzy mountain peak,
hero shaded with heavy clouds, here inundated
with a sudden bnrst of light surprises the eye—
Lewis has known how to make it strike tin atti
tude before the spectator like some “well
graced” and well-dressed actor.
Mr. Smith has naturally still moro of the theat-
rlcal method In his art. He burgeons in four
landscapes, the most considerable of which is
his large scene taken from the neighborhood of
Conway, with tho headwaters of the river Saco,
and Mount Washington in the distanee. This
picture has seme of the beauties, all the largeness
of style, and a little ol the coarseness of the
handsome drop-curtains with which the skillfu
artist has draped some of our city stages. A
smaller repetition of the scene may be Btudied
in the little landscape owned by Mr. Jay Cook.
Hero we have the same' precipitous cliff pushed
out from the right like a side-scene, the same
quality of water and sky. But the distant moun
tain hero cools the eye with a barrow-load or
two of theatrical snow emptied down Its sides.
Mr. Smith’s good qualities are a happy sense of
arrangement; an elevated feeling for scale and
breadth,' gentle, pearly color, nnd a very grateful
sense of dis tant air.
Mr. Weber, in the picked views he . sends us
from his residence in Darmstadt, exhibits a re
turn to the cleanly neatness of his ,old Dutch
models. The woodland stream, hung in the
southeast room, is one of the most faultless pic
tures there;. but it Is bright, polished, and exact
to the verge of .the mechanical.
Mr. Bensell, in his large landscape, placed in
the first room,* does himself credit. Hia foliago
Is speckled, in the Weber method; sometimes he
forgets to attach it to the stems, as in the middle
distance of this picture, where the loaves drift,
like showers of falling gold, over trunks with
which they have no apparent connection.^
Mr. J. R. Evans reveals solid study and an
undeniablo advance in the long, strangely-shaped
landscapes which hang. in the same robin, on
either side of Mr. Hamilton’s illustration from
David Copperfleld. The one. to, the right; which
is our favorite, reveals the flat, top of a' hiU,'set
very deep on the canvas, so- that the cattle
- which-grazenpon it almost seem to stand upon
the frame., Thiß gives Importance to the, great
space of bine sky, of a happy andfather singular
color, fringed along the low horizon with faint
white clouds. -The: central group of cattle is
painted in with a vigor and decision that com
pares creditably with the Troyon across the room,
and the relief of a black-cow in front,- who lies
against dark colors yet comes distinctly in front.
of them, in a piece of very able toning.
We observe that Mr. Hewitt’s fine portrait of
ox-Governor -Curtin.' has been i removed to this
gallery, where it occupies a place nearer the eye
/level than at first—fliling the space lately given
to a portrait of Heaton’s. It gave'ns pleasure to
remark, also,-that, at the close of the regular ex
hibition term, the three, blank frames belonging'
to a marine artist, and so long dedicated, tolscan-:
I’dal, were removed te'givo place to valuable pic-;
tiiresowned by the Academy. 1

[Special Dtapalch to tbo Chicago Evening Journal.!
Maiiqueite, Mich.. June 13.— This place was
vlßiud witha most disastrous conflagration on
Thursday night. It broke out in tbo railroad
machine shop, destroyed that, and, extending to
the stores and cilices adjoining, swept throngh
botlr sides of Front street, from' Superior to
Washington, and through Spring and Main
streets*
Included In the property destroyed Are ’ forty
stores .the Post-office, Custom House, United
States Land Office, Court-house, County Treas
urers office, First National Bank, Bevcral rest
denccs, and the . railroad depot, machine shop,
and two docks, with high trestle works. Four
entire blocks were burned, over. Nearly all the
buildings were of wood, except the largo four
story brit* of Burr Brothers,.which was of brick,
coating $66,000 when built, a year ago,and which
was occupied by the Land Office and Custom
House, a public hall, stores, offices, <fec.
The loss to the Marquette and Bay Do Noquet
Railroad Company cannot be less than half a
million dollars,by the destruction of Its docks and
buildings. The total loss by the conflagration will
reach at least a million and a half of dollars—
Probably more: The insurance Is comparatively
• Every store in the town was destroyed, and
what on Wednesday morning was a thriving and
prosperous village, foil of life and hope, is now a
scene of destruction and ruin. It Is a hard blow,
bnt onr people are foil of courage, and will soon
recover Jrom the terrible disaster which . has be
fallen the community.
The fire did not reach the popular residence
portion of the place, bnt the few residences that
were destroyed were fine ones. Among
them are those,of B. P. Robbins, John Mac-
Gregor, John-Lewis, P. M. Everett and Peter
White. Among the buildings destroyed are the
Commercial Hotel and the Tremont House, and
the fire- engine house,the public hall, iortv stores,
iwenty-live saloons and shops, and a number of
offices. Over one hundred buildings were con
sumed. All tbo records in the public offices were
destroyed, which is an irretrievable loss. .
We have three small - fire-engines, but they are
poor affairs, and. having no adequate facilities
for getting water in them, of course are worthless
in such an emergency.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

fire commenced4n the shops of the Marquette

•<!1 their shops except one. A'tcr destroying the
shops, the conflagration raged until there was

Men's Christian Association had also jnst fltt< d
up a suite of three rooms, at a east of 81.500.
There were also the rooms of the Marquette His

and Good Templars.
The docks destroyed are those of the Lake Su
perior Iron Company, with a largo warehouse
and numerous buildings, and the Marquette and
Ontonagon Railroad Company; alsp a shipping
and ore dock. Their loss will very seriously
cripple the shipping interest of the town until
they can be rebuilt, as not for from 150 vessels are
engaged in taking iron ore from this point,which
can, for the present, bo only partially shipped,
and at a vety slow rate.
Altogether, pome ouo-hundred different build

EFrom the St. Paul (Mina.) Preaa of the 10th.l
Wo are Informed by Mr. W. H. Willey, of this
city, who has just returned from Fort Biovenaon,
s Government post near the Great Bend of the
Missouri, that Gen. Do Trobriand is very appre
henalve that two mail carriers, Charles McDonald
and Joseph Hamlin, who left Fort Stevenson on
the 17th of May, to carry a mall to meet similar
messengers from Fort Totten,havo been 'ourdercd
by prowling Upkapapas, as the, .Sioux in
the vicinity are called. On the '24th,
two other mail carriers were sent in the same
direction. They had nearly reached the half-way
station, where, exchanging mails, they usually
started to return, when some thirty Indians
rushed upon them from a ravine. During the
melee that ensued, the pack-mule bearing the
mail broke away, and while the carriers were
taken as prisoners to an adjacent camp, a party
started in pursuit of the mule. The men were
robbed of every thing—horses, guns and most of
their clothing. --
The chief of the party, one “Sitting Bull,” was
the grim host of the unfortunate mall carriers,
one of whom, Joseph Martin, shivering with cold
lrom the forcible removal of hat, coat and napts
begged the chief to lend him some additional
clothing. “Sitting. Bull” gave him a coat, which
Martin recognized as belonging to Charles Mc-
Donald. It hadthe marks, of fivo bullets and
two Indian arrows, and the Indians boasted that
bothMcDonaldand Hamlin had been killed the
week before. .
It was now an hour or more after dark, and
soon the Indians returned with the fugitive pack
uiul6 ana the mail, and during the confusion and
excitement,, tho two men escaped-from the camp
and concealed themselves in a willow thicket
near au uujoining streaui. There was a search
for mem, but they were not dißcbvbred, and to
ward morning they stole oil", and by walking day
and night, reached Fort Stevenson in safety.
There is no chance of recovering either mail.
Our informant thinks that McDonald has been
a resident of -Minneapolis.' , .
About the 17 th of May, tho same band of ITu
kapapas'were making- demonstrations near tho
Fort, and some Bee scouts,' employed' by Gove
rn? 11 ?, 6 , 11 *’ were sent to observe their motions.
The Sioux captured one of them,robbed,stripped
and beat him unmercifully, bnt finally released
him. - -

of New Cade,*/. 0 * 11 Annapolls-ftames
-West Point, June 14—General Grant held
court here on the balcony of Boo’s Hotel on Sa
tnroay moraine:. Surrounded by a bevy of young
ladles, ho had for each and every one of. them a
smile and a good word. The hero of theßebel-
Uon was stormed by a battery of beautiful eyes;
J C V ', n hie quiet way he seemed, as.ho isj self
possessed ana reliant, and did not, as many other
men. would have done, surrendered uncondition
ally. In the afternoon, in company with some’of
the Professors, the General crossed to Cold Spring,
where he dined with the venerable Governor
Kemble.
. Major-Gen. Robert Anderson, the hereof Fort
Sumter, called on Gen.'Grant this morning. The
meeting between the two Genorals was charac
terized by great warmth offeeling, and theycoa
vereed long together.
Major-Gens. Saefcett, W. Tccumseh Sherman,
and liarteuff arrived lost evening. .
- -The storm cleared away on Friday evening, as
If to give the graduating class a starlight sky for
•heir “high old time, 1 ': the annual lark. About
10>£ the class left the Barrack Boom in carriages,
wagons and omnibuses,- and,- preceded by the
string band, proceeded. on their way. The Pro
fessors were first Serenaded and- cheered; then
the ladies of Boo’s Hotel were; alike honored.
Bottles of choice brands of champagne were pro
dtfeed as the carriages toiled away from the
hotel, and now “the plot begins to thicken.”
The woods ring with the well-knoWn air of
“Benny Havens, Oj" Cozzens’B Hotel is reached,
the band plays "Partant pour la Syrie” and the
well-known face of Captain Jerome Bonaparte of
the class of 1853 is seen at the window. Cheer
alter cheer is given for the gallant French cap
tain, and MnyoT Hoffman Is also complimented.
The graduates now enter the hotel and the reg
ister groans under heavy military titles, for each
cadet announces himself a Brevet Brigadier or a
Major Generalcommanding, or Chief Of Ord
nancc, a Quartermaster General, &c., &e. Again
Royal Marceaux makes his appearance, and the
plot becomes mixed. They reach the Barrack
Yard, and now they prepare for “Yo Grand old
War Dance."- There is a whitish streak in the
east that proclaims that morning is near. It will
soon be time for the “reveille” and then these
“extravagant erring spirits must hie to their con
fines;” yet. now, arrayed in'motley garb, coats
inside out, caps awry, handkerchiefs bound
around tho head a la Indian; with whoop and
shriek they began the dance. Tbie Plebo etarts
from bis conch in alarm and rushes to the win
dow to behold in the m'oonlight uncouth figures
dancing around two empty champagne bottles,
in whose throats are thrust two long twigs of a
tree. Ronnd and round they go—twisting,
turning, laughing and shrieking. If the
professors hear the sounds, they turn over in
their beds, and remember, perhaps, their own
experiences at the breaking up of the class; The
dance continues—the revel absorbs all—none
think of reveille; but, hark! rat, tat, tat, and
there comes a” roll of drums; the circle now is
broken, and there is a rapid retreat to Quarters.

ChtebJustico Chase.
[Fiom to-dny'a New York Wbrli] -'
It Is creditable to the manliness and Integrity
of this distinguished statesman’ that-tho recent
proposal of some precipitate Democrats and
sensational journals to nominate him for the
Presidency, has not caussd him to swerve from
the principles he has always held, nor to prae
tice tho least concealment ’respecting the per
sistent firmness with which he ndh«r«« to them,.
There has never been ? any likelihood that he
would receive tho Democratic 1 nomination; but
the political 'gOßslp on that subject rendered it"
proper that be should makes it evident to-all'
the # world thrU his impartial bearing during
the impeachment, trial was not the artlflce of ’a
demagogue, who, having been disappointed of a
WEST POINT.
I oy7n P art 7T stood ready to ro
-1 cel ?o the tender of one from his political oppo
l nents. In the impeachment trial he did his duty
I with such dignity, fairness ond independence, os
I merit recognition by tho Democratic party, and
F the constancyand publicity with whieh he main
f wins his political opinions should bo accepted by
I Republicans as a proof that tho Chief Justice
I t nCD .by no unworthy motives.
I . With the opinions which Mr. Chase continues
I to hold, he is by . far toe sagacious and
I clearsighted a politician, to suppose that the
Democratic party can have any serious thought
of making him its candidate for President. While
the party la compelled to recognize the existence
of many unwelcome factswhich It cannot re
verse. It has not changed, and cannot change, Us
principles. The fact thattho negroes will vote
In the coming Presidential election la a fact which
the Democratic parly recognizes only on corri
pulsion, while Chief Justice Chaso regards it
with more than complacency, vrith more than
satisfaction, with the Joy which attends the ful
filment of a long-cherished hope. What ho has
so ardently desired,'the Democratic party has
strenuously resisted; and indignantly denounced.
The Democratic party may be unable to. revoke
wbat has been done; but they certainly are not
going to indorse it, as they would virtually do by
nominating a man who : makes it the Corner
stone of his political creed. Thero Is a great
difference between - submitting to- the in
evitable from sheer inability tp withstand, It,
and placing ourselves under the guidance of
a man who has aided in bringing the evil Upon
w. Wo should ho glad to see Chief-Justico
Chase follow Mr. Blair and Senator Doolittle into
the Democratic party; but as ho regards negro
snffra»e as a blessing instead of-;nn atrocious,
though perhaps irretrievable blunder; we do not
see how he end tho Democratic: party can have
any bond of fellowship. We did not object to a
parley; but it was certain- from the beginning
that the mountain would riot go to Mahomet,ana
it appears that Mahomet will not coirio' to the
mountain; 1 whieh, steadfast as the Chief-Justice
is, would have been much the easier miracle.
EtJKOPEAH AFFAEKS
FRANCE.
Specch.ol the. Emperor at Rouen,
iluzJfoHUcitr du iSoir publishes tlie speeches
made by the Emperor at Rouen, of which a sum
mary has already appeared by telegraph. In his
*<> the Cardinal the Emperor expressed
himself as follows:
“The Church Is the sanctuary where tho great
principles of Christian morality are maintained
intoctj principles whieh elevate man above all
material interests. . Let us then join with the
faith of our forefathers tho sentiment of pro
gress; let us never separate our love of God from
the love of our country. Thus we shall render
ourselves less unworthy of Divine protection,
and be enabled to march with head erect in tho
path of duty through every obstacle.”
J , Tll ® Em P <ir ° r eonciuded by thanking tho Car
dinal for the good wishes expressed for the Em
press and Prince Imperial, and said:
“The blessing of the Prince’s august god
father and tho prayers of the clergy of France
cannot fall to insure his happiness.
AUSTRIA.
Relations with tlie “Holy See.”
The Under Secretary of State in the Ministry
for Foreign Affairs, Boron Meysenbng, left Vi
enna on the 26th ult.-for Rome, on an extraordi
nary mission in connection, with the Concordat
and the laws relative to schools, civiL marriages,
and the position of the different religious de
nominations sanctioned by the Emperor. It
is reported that a protest of the Holy See
relative to the sanction of tho laws men
tioned above has already arrived at Vienna,
and is in tho hands of the Nuncio, who wUI
formally lodge it with the Austrian Government
as soon as the said laws have been ‘published in
ihe official gazette, which was the case on last
Tuesday. Such a proceeding would but add an
other to the series of protests which the HolvSee
from time to time launched against accomplished
tacts. In the seventeenth century it protested
against the Peace of Westphalia; it protested in
1815 against the Congress of Vienna, and agairist
the treaties signed by all Europe, yet these trea
ties remained in force, and it did not hinder their
forming for a long period the basis of the inter
national law of Enrope.
GREECE.
Tlio Cretan (location.
An Athens despatch of May 27th says the re
serve of tho Greek army has been called to arms.
The deputies elected by the insurgent Candiotes
to the Greek Chamber have been requested to
leave, but have declined. Two have been sent
away. Tho Turkish Minister declared that if the
deputies were received ho would demand his
passports. Eranco, Austria and England have
protested against '.the admission of the Cretan
Deputies.
ROHE.
The Pope—Notable Decline of' Popu
larity—A singular Remark.
[Romo (May 17JCorrcepondcnce of the Rail Moll Gazetto.l
Persons around the Pope affirm that ho be
comes more and more troubled In reference to
the term of twenty-five years, which, according
to the Komon superstition, is the extreme limit
of a pontifical reign, and he even expresses fears
whether he will complete the period. He has
ocen particularly uneasy during the last few
days. At the festival of the Ascension he looked
ill and dejected, and his voice was very weak.
Yesterday was tbo festival of St. Philip Nerl,
the patron of Borne, and the Popo went in great
pomp to the church bearing ms name." The
Holy Father was attended in his carriage by the
Cardinals Borromeo and Monaco de Levalette,
and preceded by Monsignor Pereenelll, the Pon
tifical cross-bearer, on a white mule, and riding
bare-headed mider a burning sun. This prelate
has a great fear of being struck with apoplexy
on some, occasion of this kind, and yesterday
rode in visible trepidation, suffering much from
the stiffing heat. The procession advanced
through a dense crowd, which lined the whole
way, and which gathered more thickly round the
church, but received the Holy Father almost in
silence, the cheers being few and far between.
During the ceremony the Pope was attended by
Cardinal Grasselllui, who, in ; his quality Of
deacon, stood on the steps of the throne. The
death of Cardinal Andree has placed- Cardinal
Qrassallini at the head of the liberal section of the
Sacred College, and It was probably in reference
to this fact that the Pope, at the funeral of Car
dinal Andrea, said to him, “Has your Eminence
mado your will ?”
