[CorrupoDdcnce of the Philadelphia Evrnlnx Bullctin-J Pabis, Friday, June 26, 1868.— The new laws on the- Frees and the Right of Public Meeting! | limited as is the extent of those enactments, are, still,giving evidence that they may hear some con siderable fruits. For the first time daring the pre sent reign, a French citizen is now at liberty to establish a newspaper, wlthoui asking’ permis sion of the authorities. This privilege has already been pretty 'largely exercised, especially In the Provinces, where, previous to the now law, It was much eaeier for the local magistracy and law offi cers of the crown to refuse or evade : such appli cations, without giving rise to. public seaudal and offepCe, than It was in Paris. Thus at Toulouse, no fewer than three new jourhals'have already started into existence. Two more have made their appearance at Caen. Tours, Rhelms, Angere, and many other towns have followed thfreSampie; all showing more or less that the voice of public opinion had hitherto been stifled and kept down In the departments. What proves this still more strongly Is the fact that a vast ma jority of these new exponents of .the national feelings belong to different shades of the opposi tion. Not a single new journal, so far as I can as yet ascertain, has been started on the other side; although several which were previously need as organs of the government by the local ad ministration have tamed round and claimed their independence, now that they are emancipated from the dreaded and arbitrary “warnings,” which could at any moment compromise their very ex istence. .These facts are significant and encour aging, and show that the country is gradually waking up and loosing the bonds which have so long beid .lt, and is beginning once more to think, fi el and speak for itself, as a prelude to action. Again, in Paris, the other day, we had the first example of the working of the new Right of Public Meeting Bilk It is difficult for any one,. and especially for an American, to convince him self of the fact that * for the last fifteen years, 9no “twenty” Frenchmen dared to meek together publicly to discuss either their own private affairs or those of the country, with, out leave of the Prefect of Police. Nevertheless, this was actually the case, and the heaviest penal ties were attached to any breach, of the regula tion, or any excess of the prohibited number. The new law bllowb of public meetings being held withont authorization, for the disenssion of any subject: not connected with politics, and advantage' was taken of this enact ment fofthe firsttime, last Week, to hold a meet ing on the subject of Co-operative Societies am amg the working classes. The object proposer! was to extend a knowledge of the question among those whoni Itconcemed, and enlighten them as to their own interests. I had never seen a free public meeting in Paris since the days of the Po litical Clnbs, in 1819-50, when I had often been present at these stormy assemblages of red republicans, as they were then called, who had survived the days of June, 1848, and were proposing to re-enact the same scenes over again in 1852, when they were but. prised by the Coup dEtat. It was curious to ob serve the very different physiognomy, os com pared with such assemblages, of.the meeting to ' which I now allude. Although composed almost entirely of the working classes; nothing ■ could exceed the sobriety and moderation of its lan guage, behavior and aspect. The President, H. Aristide Martin, well-known for the Interest he takes in the welfare of the laboring population, was able to keep his audience in the most perfect good order by the mere sound of his presidential bell; and the solitary Commis sary of Police, who was on the watch to see tbat the forbidden field of politics was not en croached on, had net once occasion to interfere with the proceedings. Nothing, in fact, of a sensational character took place; and the sole In terest of the meeting, like that of the establish ment ef the new jonmals I have above spoken of, arose from the circumstance of its being, in both cases, the exercise of a newly accorded privilege, on the future developments of which, may, In a great measure, depend t% fate of France and her present ruler. Next year (if not sooner) the new. elections to tho Chamber take place, and politi \ cal meetings of the electors will be allowed for the first time. W e shall learn then how far the present “constitutional” training of the French people has fitted them for the exercise of a more enlarged and pos Itive liberty. The French trans-Atlantic steamer, the Saint Lament, arrived at Brest, ftom New York, on I Wednesday last, 18 hours before the stipulated time. - Tho Belgian papers are filled with accounts of the visit of the King and Qneen, attended by all the ministers, the President of the Belgian Cham ber, Mr. Sandford, the American Minister at Brussels, and his wife, and a numerous suite—on board the United States flag-ship, the Franklin, now at Ostend; and ol the splendid reception there given to them by Admiral Farragut and Mrs. Farragut. The incidents of the arrival of the royal party and their going on board are quite exciting, and display great pluck on the part of the principal personages. Just as the Royal mail steamer, which was to convey the visitors to the point where the Franklin and Ticonderoga were lying, six miles off in the offing, left the pier of Ostend, a terrific squall burst upon her, shutting out every thing around from view. When the steamer had at last felt her way to the Franklin, efforts were made today her alongside, bnt the 1 sea had risen so high that the attempt was abandoned after two failures, and there was nothing for it bnt for the Franklin to lower her boats and endeavor to tranship the illustrious passengers. • A splendidly manned boat, with an. officer and four teen men on board, soon came alongside, dancing, however,,like mad upon the waves, while the rein still fell in torrents. Nevertheless, without a moment’s hesitation, the young Queen •was the first to take her place, followed hi no small terror by her ladles; and, the King joining her, the trip on board was effected in safety. I need not say how hearty the welcome was, -nor how highly the courage of the royaTTady was appreciated by American gentlemen and officers. , By and by the sun shone out again, and all went off brightly and fkiriy- There was or splendid breakfast, first, for the King, Queen; and, ladles t where Admiral and Mrs. Farragut did the honors; and afterwards a second, presided 'o ret by Mr. Sandford. Fuller details will reach you from eye PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1868. witnesses; but all acconnts describe the visit as at once most flattering and successful* EHfILABD. Admiral Farragut’a Squadron in Anglamb The Tima, of June 26, In Its Southampton cor respondence, ears: “The United States splendid steam frigate Franklin, 3,G00 tons burden, and carrying 39 guns. Cant. A. M. Fennock, the flag ship of Admiral David G. Farragut, commanding the European Squadron of the United States Navy, and accompanied by the war Steamer Tl conderoga, Capt B.- H. Wyman, arrived in the river this morning from Ostend. On the ships coming to anchor the American flag was ran' no to the masthead of Her Majesty’s ironclad chip Hector, lying off Netley Hospital, and sa luted with 17 guns, and immediately afterward the British tag was hoisted from the main or the. Franklin and saluted in* like manner. The Swa tara, Commander William H, Jeffers, has been lying in our waters for some time past, and two more vessels of the squadron'are expected here shortly, via., the Canandaigua, Captain J. H. Strong, from Lisbon, and the Frolic, Commander D. B. Harmony. The squadron will remain here abont a fortnight, and dnring their rendezvous at this port the gallant Admiral is expected to pay a visit to Scotland. TheMsyor of the borough, Mr. J. R: Stabbing, has waited npon the American Consul, Captain : John Britton, requesting him to ask Admiral Farragut to honor him with his company at a dinner to which, previous to the arrival of the Franklin, his worship had invited the officers of the Bwatara and some of the borough officials at his private residence, St. Andrew's Villa, on Thursday afternoon. The Town Council, at a meeting held today, also passed a resolution unanimously inviting Admiral Farragut-to a public banquet proffered by the municipality to ’ the gallant Admiral and the officers of the ships under his command. A magnificent specimen of that scarce fish, the-royal sturgeon, measuring seven feet in length and weighing 101 pounds, was caught in the upper part of the Southampton waters, between the Itoyal Victoria pier and the magazines of Marchwood, this morning, which has been purchased by Mr. Alderman Perkins for presentation to Admiral Farragut, and will be sent on board the Franklin i mmedlatelv, nr. Longfellow Fleeted ajheinber of tbe Reform Club* The Daily Newt in an editorial says—“To vol untarily elect a stranger a member of a London clnb is the highest social compliment that any fortuitous concourse of human atoms can pay. The Reform Club has recently honored Itself by adopting this, course to Professor Longfellow; and the committee: are about to emphasize ibeir welcome by inviting their new mem ber to a dinner, organized in his honor, and presided over by a discriminating but cordial admirer ofhls works. There is noth- ing very remarkable in this; nothing to rouse Mr. Longfellow’s fervent gratitude, or to make him labor under any overwhelming burden ot obliga tion. But, on the other hand, we imagine that any traveller, literary or otherwise, would find bis visit pleasanter lot ;thcso delicate evidences of regard. It is perhaps not much to make a man free of your house, but it is at least better than leaving him to the cold comfort of his hotel, or to the chance of hospitality of friends.- It will not be unpleasant to Mr. Lonfellow to visit an institution which has literary as well as : political associations, which was a favorite lonnging place for Thackeray, and the: architec ture of which Macauley celebrated in a letter. to Leigh Hnnt.” FRANCE. A Successful journalist. A Paris correspondent gives the following ac count of the career of a-journalist of whom our readers already know something: Wo are witness to one of the most extraordi nary successes In the annals of the Parisian press. Mons. Henri Rochefort recently deter mined to issue a weekly newspaper. He was a writer on Le Figaro, m receipt of 85,000 gold salary. He abandoned this lucrative position to run the hazards of editor And publisher. Success bas rewarded his adventure. He sells 80,000 or 90,000 copies whenever lt : appears, although the police will not allow it to be sold on the street. Mons. Rochefort’s success ha 3 been singaiarly rapid. A few years since •he was a clerk in the Hotel oe Ville, on a meagre salary. While quill-driving he turned his leisure hours to art, ana occasionally wrote a dramatic criticism in some theatrical newspaper. He grew fond ot writing. He had been some years a clerk in the Hotel de Ville, when one morning, the head clerk, dissatisfied with the writing of his subor dinates, ordered all of them to attend a writing sehool every night. This order was equivalent to interdicting Mona Bochefort from giving atten tion to art, and from pursuing his theatrical crit icisms. He resigned his clerkship and joined the press-gang. His novitiate was easier than most writers undergo. He almostimmediately rose into notice, and soon secured a lucrative place on Figaro. lam no admirer of his manner. It is extremely artificial and forced. Constantly striving for effect, he sometimes Is brilliant, but often falls to strike the sparks he would produce. His best efforts are wearisome when several of ihem are read consecutively. He Is rather a striking-looking yonng man. His eyes are bril liant, and deep set under a projecting high fore head; his lips are thin, and are relieved rather than concealed, by a delicate moustache and sparse goatee. He has thirty-two white teeth. He has a large nose, the hair of Absalom, and he is as pale as a sheet. THE raOHNUie STAB DISASTKK. Finding ol the Bodies. [From the Cleveland Leader, of July 6tb.i The girl’s body found on Friday, which we stated was that of Miss Garrett, proves to have been the body of little Miss Cora Perry,of Detroit Her mother and two children were passengers on the Morning Star,and all were lost It is gratifying to record, however, that the bodies of ail three have been recovered. During the search on Friday the body of a wo man, with dark hair and dressed in light clothing, was brought to the surface, bnt on account of the slight hold tiie grappling nooks had upon the clothingit was not recovered. A lady’s handker chief marked “Sarah Christie,” was fished np and brought to Cleveland. Mr. John H. Garrett’s neck tie, left in his state-room, was also brought to the .surface. On Saturday the Levi Johnson returned to its work on the wreck. Two more bodies were dragged up, one of which was that of Mr. H. Allen Iddings, whose loss was so keenly felt by a large circle of friends and acquaintances. Mrs. Iddinga,'the mother of tho deceased, was on board the tug at the time. The body was well preserved and ftuly dressed, ■ with the exception of collar and neck-tie.;. •■ The gold watch, chain and rings were found and taken by Mrs. Iddlngs. The funeral will take place to-morrow. Dae notice thereof will be published. The other body was thatof a middle-aged man of medium height. It was clothed with a black coat, gray pantaloons and vest, plaid flannel • shirt and heavy boots. In tho pockets were found a brass-handled knife, a small pipe, a quantity of tobaccs, and a wallet containing one , live and two one dollar hills,and a steerage ticket from Cleveland to Detroit, marked on the'back, :in pencil, “No. 32.” Nothing was found to indi cate bis namo. . .. The body ofa " woman in; night, clothes was brought nearly to the surface bnt sank back. Yesterday the same tag started ont for another ■ search, but was obliged to-roturn because of the roughncßS of the lake. The work of dragging - that vicinity-will bo continued aslong as there re-, meins a probability of recovering any bodies. The bodies found by the tug np’ to this time have been found noartbo wreck, ana it is thought that all those who went down with the steamer are in that Immediate vicinity. OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. Ottda and Ends of Gossip. [from the New York Fapen of Today.] The principal talk was of Chase and bis avalla bility as a candidate, some expressing, surprise ibat bis name had not been mentioned, while others regarded this reticence on the part of his friends-as Simply apiece of strategy looking for ward to the early presentation of his name as the termination of the labors of the . Convention in its enthusiastic endorsement, ns that of one who would lead the Democratic hosts to a certain and decisive victory. It is. beyond all doubt that a his nomination, recognize in Chief Justice Chase the most avails* ble candidate with whom to enter the field in the contest for the Presidency against Grant, and are prepared to give him. their hearty ebpport; bat, Unfortunately, while possessing this latent or re serve strength, ln the Convention the Chief Jus tice Is without any representation there commit ted or pledged to urge his claims to the nomina tion, as In the case ol the other candidates backed op by States: nor is there any individual with sufflcient independenco of character (or, not' to put too fine a point upon it, pluck) to stand np in the Convention ana boldly propose his name. chase’s prospects. . ... ’‘Judge Chase’s stock seems to be very low,’ said an Ohio delegate; “his not having received a single ballot yet evinces his utter weakness in the Convention.” . “I think it shows exacUy the. reverse,” said a Mississippi delegate. “His friends, I believe, have only been holding him bock, and when the time comes, they will bring him forward; and I shouldn’t be surprised If he made • a, grand rush ahead and distanced all bis competitors.” “Our delegation, I don’t believe, can'be induced nnder any circumstances to give Idm their vote,” said the Ohioan, “and I feel certain Pendleton’s friends won’t back down in his favor.” “He has certainly shown himself right on negro suffrage,” answered the Mississlpplau; “and there can be no possible donbt of his hearty endorse ment: of the platform of the Convention.” RUMOR ABOUT CHASE. There is reason to believe lhat lho Chase move ment for the Presidency trill be inaugurated in the Convention to-day. The New York delega tion is supposed to have made up its mind to go as a unit for the Chief Justice, and tho Southern delegates, influenced by the fact that five Judges of the Supreme Court, at the head of whom stands Mr. Chase, have derided upon rendering a favorable opinion in the McArdlo case, and thus relieving tho Southern people of the most op pressive feature of the despotism under whieh they labor, have resolved on sustaining New York, and, backed up by Pennsylvania and the entire Eastern Btatea, will make a considerable inroad on Mr. Pendleton's chances. When pra” *. was announced yesterday, the whole Convention rose to Us feet, and some few well-behaved persons in the-gallery did the same: but the vast majority retained their seats and seemed to regard the prayer as a bore, especially so in such oppressive weather. Profane people declared the prayer was entirely too long fora democratic crowd; but more point would have ; been shown in. the remark that no prayer could 'be too long when addressed to Heaven in their behalf. - The following arc a few choice specimens of the manner in which the Democratic press is con ducting the present campaign: / The New York Day Book saysof “Mongrelism.” “A Democrat, a true, Intelligent Democrat, should no more associate with, or sitat table with a white nigger than he Would a black one. No matter what his education or accomplishments, a true Democrat should no more permit a degraded and corrupt beast like Charles Sumner, who vol untarily abdicates his manhood and equalizes with negroes, to eat with him, or even to speak to him without touching his hat, than he would Fred. Douglas or any other nigger. An honest Democrat naturally avoids a thief, a pickpocket or degraded wretch that commits bigamy, &c., but none of these corruptions and degradations equal the degradation or indeed the sin of equalizing with negroes. Finally, we must all come to this posi tion, and restore the white Republic, or another million of lives must needs be sacrificed before a truth so simple and obvious is beaten into the American brain ; for not liberty alone, but so ciety itself, is only possible in this country as it was organized by Washington and left us by Bu chanan.” The Metropolitan Record says of the admission of Arkansas: “Very good! One more infamygadded to the already long catalogue will but hasten the com ing retribution. Let them bring in their carpet bag Senators and their carpet-bag Representa tives nnder this infamous act of an infamous Congress! Bring them in, we say, and jost see bow Jong the people will permit them to stay there!’' It threatens the Republicans in the following strain: POUTICAI* THE .NEW S£OBK CONTENTION. Democratic indecencies. “Is it not about time for them to get it into their brain that it is a cardinal principle with the Democracy that this is a White Man’s Government, and that, therefore, the nigger governments which Radicalism has set np in these Africanized States have all got to be upset, and that the upsetting will begin jnst as soon as we can get oar Democratic President inaugu rated, on the 4th of March, 18G9. The Govern ment of the United States then will be the Demo cratic Executive, the Democratic majority in the Honse of ReDreseniatives, and such of the Senators as have not been sent from the nigger monarchies aforesaid. That is Government will be supported by the militia, which we expect to have under the command of Democratic Governors in all the great States. It will be a strong enough Gov ernment then to take care of the carpet-bag gentry and the military machinery by which they may have swindled themselves into the Ramp Congress. As we have declared heretofore, so we repeat now, the whole concern will have to leave, peaceably If they may, forcibly if we most If they choose the latter alternative, so be it. A speedy sett lement of the whole matter will then follow; and, our word for it, it will be, as we have heretofore declared, short, sharp, and de cisive.” Sbocklug Rebel Barbarities. Mr. Honneus, the Republican candidate for Sheriff in Bienville Parish, was formerly an officer of the Sixth Massachusetts Batteiy, which orga nization he. joined in Roxbury, Mass. On the night of the 28th of May he was called, to the door of his house in Bienville, and before a word coold be spoken on either side the ruffians fired upon him, shot bim down, and then shot him and beat him until he was supposed to be. dead, after he was down. Mr. Honneus arrived in this city yes terday In a very feeble Condition, *Ho requires crutches to walk with, and presents the appear ance of a battle-scarred soldier. He carries sev-,. oral of the villainous Rebel buckshot In his person. He informs ub that oh tho same night the assassins attempted to murder him, a party of men attacked, a colored, man, Moses Law horn, who, was then in his own house, dragged him out of his house, carried him, to the woods and shothim, and then cut his head off.;? They .fired at him in the afternoon, bnt did not hit him, and he escaped from them, at the,time by. fleeing ,to the woods,, This was about ten miles 'from the honse where Mr. Honnens was attacked. Mr., Lawhora was •an intelligent, man, an 'active and zealous . Republican, and owned the place where ho resided. Larkin D. Corley, Millard Corley, and Lewis ' Tally, the alleged murderers -of Nathan Green, Dinah Hoffman, Charles Hoffman, and Henry Coeny, weie brought to. town yesterday by a j Deputy United States' Marshal, 'guarded by sol { diers of the 20th United States Infantry. The ; murders were committed six or seven weeks ago. 'in the pine woods, six mlleß from "the camplng . ground of the alleged murder. One colored wo- man and two colored men were hanged, and one Colored man was shot by the miscreants. Green was at a prayer meeting when a party of twelve or more approached, one of whom went into the house and deliberately shot him. Hoffman and Cocny were taken out of tho church, bound together, a rope was placed around' their necks, and they were led to a house where -another prayer meeting was held, and there Dinah Hoff man, the mother of Charles, was seized, aud all three were banged together to a rafter in the house. The wife of Corley, when they were ar rested, told her husband it served him right, “for be bad no business to go down there and meddle with them niggers.” —Ntw Orleans Republican, •fane 271/*.

The, government Is about to take possession of them, , and will thus prepare the way for the develop ment of a large and extensive immigration. There is another half a million acres upon which no faxes havo been paid at all for sgino years. These the government can any day pounce upon as forfeited by non-payment of land. tax.

The loss of human life, stock, horses and property by floods which havo carried everything out to sea, is far beyond any fair esti mate at present In the low lying estates the sugar workshave been completely inundated and everything movable swept away. Houses have been unrooted and laborers’ huts carried down the rivers and out to sea. The Milk river rose fifty feet above its usual level, inundated tbo matron's bouse at the baths, and it was with great difficulty that the furniture was saved from being washed bwbt. The kitchen roof was washed off and left on the top of some large trees about one bur dred yards distant. The Bio Cobre has risen higher than it has ever been known by the oldest inhabitant to have risen. At Spanlshtown it is nearly on a level wlth the bridge. A large wain with several hogsheads of sugar,-belonging to Mr. McPhail, and driven by. twelve oxen, were all swept away from the Bogg Walk, in St. Catherine. At Four Paths and Porus the road was flooded, the water in many cases coming over tho wheels of private carriages. The Dry river rose forty feet above its usual level, and barked a cotton tree on its bank to the belght of twenty-five, feet Mr. Justice Rampini lost his carriage in lt and nar rowly escaped with his life. The carriage was carried down tho river, dashed into a hole In the bank and soon became a perfect wreck. The Police Office was swept away, and the policemen, to escape, lodged up in a tree In the rain, without lord and covering from the tempest and rain. A hut, with an old man, his wife and grandchild, was washed down In the torrent and never seen again. , There are five gigantic landslips on Monnt Diablo.

Bccord of June 301 We have to record o very singular deliverance of a girl about three years of age to Its parents, after Delng carried off by a black bear, and a ecarcb of about thirty-six hours through the lorest by the,excited parents. The facts, as near as we can gather them,' are substantially as fol lows: . Mr. Henry Flynn lives about forty mileß east ofthis place, at or near the lodging camps of Mr, Lpdington, and, we believe, has charge of one of the camps. He started one morning to "take a horse to pasture, about two miles distant rrom the house, and, as he was ready to start, his little girl appeared and seemed very anxious to go with her father, who, in order to plants the child, put her upon the horee’s back and let her ride a short distance, perhaps forty rods from the house, but in plain view of It,"where he put her down and told her to rnn home. Hc.hotlced that the child was standing where he left her, and, on looking bock after going a little farther, saw her playing-in the. sand.. He soon, passed out of eight, and was gone about an hour, ex pecting, of coarse, that the child would return to the house after playing a few moments. On returning home he made inquiry about, the child of its mother, who said she had not seen the child, and supposed he had taken her along with him. On going to the spot where he left her, ho eaw huge bear tracks In the sand, and at once came to the conclusion that the child had been carried off by the bear. The family Immediately made search through the forest, which was grown up to almost a jun gle, rendering their search very slow. All day these anxious Barents searched for some trace of their child, nor did they stop when darkness came on, but remained in the woods, calling the child by her name, and with aching hearts would listen, with almost breathless fear, to catch some Bound by which they could discover their lost darling. Morning eame and their search was fniltiees. ~ , A conple of gentlemen looking at land came to tho honse, and, being Informed of the circum stance, immediately set ont to help find the child. No doubt existed as to the fate of the little one by all, and if they coaid only flDd vyhere the bear had despatched his victim, they might then go home with the assurance that they were never to see their child again, but until somo trace of her was found, there was hope. . The gentlemen alluded to had wandered about and as they were passing a swampy spot where the undergrowth was thick, they either called the child, or else were talking aloud, when one of them heard the child’s voice. He then called the child by name, and told her to come ont-of the bushes. She replied that the bear would not let her. The men.then crept through the bush, and when near the spot where the child and bear were, they heard a splash >n the water, which the child said was the bear. On going to her they found her standing upon a log extending about half wav across the river. , „ ' The bear had undertaken to cross the river on the log, and being closely pursued) loft the child' and swam away. She had received some scratches upon her face, arms and legs, and her clothes were almost torn from her body, but the bear had not bitten her to hurt her, only the marks ot his teeth being found on her back, where, in taking hold of her clothes to carry her, he had taken the flesh also. . ' The little one says the bear would put her down occasionally to rest, and would put his nose- op to her face, when she woold. slap him, and ihen the bear would hang his head by her side and purr and rub against her like a cat. The men asked her If she was cold In the night, and; she told , them that the old bear lay down beside her and pnt his “arms”around her and hogged -*er’to him and kept her warm, though she did not like his long hair. She was taken home to her pa rents, whp could hardly express their joy at; her njifrly.
