This picture is as heavily painted as the other, and in parts is perfectly true to nature, but it has not the beautiful unity of the first picture. The last is the largest and most remarkable of the three pictures. No artist that ever lived, but Rousseau, could so simulate the appearance of distance that we sec here, in which the stream of water, wan dering out of the shadows of , the town and cot tage in the foreground, passes on through the fiat meadow-land, and is lost miles away upon the edge of the horizon. It is but an inch of space in the Canvass, yet the great distance is as real as in nature. The trees are also finely and elaborately painted and have gm same perspec tive, while the sky is nearly covered with clouds, which float in visible atmosphere; of all things this picture requires frequent seeing. There could scarcely be more finished detail in painting, yet it never imposes itself upon you. The pain ter is out of sight—the artist is lost in his art. JULICS IMPRIES "Dupres is another great painter of landscape, but, unlike Rcussean, he aims at brilliancy of ef fect, and frequently loads his canvas with color, so that, if you approach it very near, there is neither grace nor comeliness to be seen; but when standing at the proper distance, as in the picture before us, the eye is dazzled with the glowing sun light in a great space of sky, while the landscape of plain, and the broken bank of a pool of water in the foreground, are gorgeous with color, not in strong contrasts, but in luxurious ensemble of color. There is another Dapres here, small and more quiet in tome." CONSTANT TROTON I The critic lets Blip the remark that Troyon is equally celebrated as an animal and landscape painter. This is not our impression. Troyon's figures, of whatever kind, are always treated as ejects, even in compositions made up of them en tirely. This Is the landscape method. I " You can walk round his cows and sheep, so distinctly do they stand out from the canvas. He appears here in a large picture, where cattle, driven by a peasant woman, are coming down a road. They seem to be seeking shelter from a storm of wind and rain, which darkens the dis tant sky, and the plain and field. "In the group of cows standing beneath some willow trees, one can hardly recognize the mas culine female band which achieved that master piece of animal painting, "The Horse Fair." It Is a curious bit of art history that, a few years ego, the "Horse Fair' went begging through England, and was finally bought by Ur. Wright. an American, for five or six thousand dollars. Mr. A. T. Stewart, the other day, paid for this same picture $35,000, and collectors are glad to give high prices for the smallest examples from the easel of this wonderful woman." The Commercial goes on to describe a fine horse-picture by a mysterious Schreizer, "a Ger man resident in Paris." This we conclude to be Adolphe Schreyer, of Frankfort-on-Maine, the principal hippie artist of the day. ADOLPHE SCHREYER - 'We have seen several of his works where horses are dashing over the ground at full speed. One of these portrays Arabs mounted on their spirited steeds, hunting the ter, and nothing could equal the vigor and fiery spirit of these pictures. The scene before us describes a fierce mom storm in a forest,w here travelers, overtaken by the storm, have sought the shelter of a rough log-cabin; the tired horses are just entering a rude stable, whose roof is covered with the snow. This is all painted in deep rich colors, with the hand of a master. ll= "Two carefully-painted landscapes have the signature of Koekkoek. A deep valley inclosed by a steep mountain Is an effective example of Guidi. Tilt re is a cattle piece by Auguste Bon benr, a brother of Rosa. Verscheur has a view of an inn with horses watering. An energetic little picture is by Brakassat, where an enraged bull is pitching head-first into a plucky dog, who would fain seize him by the throat. Oswald Aehenbach manifests his capacity to cover a large canvas In a view of a quay covered with people, in some city on the Mediterranean, if we can judge by the costumes of the crowd. There are other landscapes hero by noted artists, but we will close this criticism of the paintings by calling attention ton singular and graphic figure-piece 'Which came from Russia, and which tells the story of how the fighting man of the Czar killed 'his opponent in the ring with a single blow of his fist "The reflection occurred to us in this brief re • view of one of the most valuable and complete collection of objects of art in America. that our students need not go to Europe to obtain a know ledge of the works of the great masters, for the libetalitv and taste of our citizens have brought them within the observation of all who choose to study and admire." THE Journal de St. Petersbourg has the follow ing interesting artistic news, which is that the Czar has consented to allow photographs to be taken of all the treasures contained iu the Im perial Gallery of the Hermitage. IN PHILADELPHIA "The Interior of St. Peter's during the Holy Week," painted by A. Weldon bach, a German artist, who has resided in Balti more for several years, is now on free exhibition at 1108 Arch street (Tenbner, Bchellman Bum aing,) and is worthy of a visit. The view, which was taken on the spot, of course, is that presen ted from under the stupendous and magnificent dome.

It is a mid right view of Veenyine in eruption, taken near the Hezzoltsg_e in last January, when the snow lay deep on , the surrounding country. The ar ravgement of the objects presented gives to the picture an unbalanced appearance at drat eight, width is not lessened by the knowledge thilt the view is strieUy drawn in accordance with nature. The volcanos is shown to the left, in.the distance, spouting firs and smoke. The clouds sweep away sluggishly over the blue night sky in murky . fire-lit to to the right of the picture, and from the base of the mountain extends .to the limit of the foreground a•desolate declivity of volcanic countrY, with chtutms and hurtle:locks enow-whitened and fire-tinted. The 'adjacent ridge of Somme rising close 'to 'Vesu vius, stretches along in , shadow toward the beholder, and very -zmaterially lessens the prondnence of the volcano. The can vas, which we should judge is six feet by four, is fully two-thirdsgiven up to the foreground, which presents only three distinct objects of re lief aside from the monotony of snow and scoria, and the few stunted shrubs that have shoved their stalks up into the poisonous air, and they are, a broken and angular upheaval of reeks, the ruins of the Hermitage (consisting of three crnaibling walls) and two leafless trees. Nothing else im pedes the view, for the artist has wisely left the scene undisturbed by any human accessories. The volcano sends a red shaft of fire into the heavens, partly veiled in its own smoke that fills up the instance, jets of fire leap up into the dark ness all along the ridge that sweeps down to the plain, marking the course of the molten river, and serene and glistening . , spreads out the inter vening space in the cold moonlight.

GREAT BRITAIN. Our Misrepresentative in London—Tho ?inglish Frees Lectures Mr. lieverdy Johnson—the Meaning of the Laird- Johnson Fraternization. [From the New York Tribune.] Lola - cox, Oct. 21.—Another English Liberal journal raises its voice to warn Mr. Reverdy Johnson against his contemplated alliance with Mr. Laird. I have quoted copiously from the News. I now have to add this stinging para graph from the Star: "Mr. Reverdy Johnson's courtesy to the ene mies of the North in this 'country Is beginning to bring him into very bad odor with his own countrymen. Since his appearance at Sheffield the leading Republican journals have commented on his present attitude and his antecedents with the utmost severity, and in more than ono quar ter there hasbeen a cry for 11s recall. His con sentirfg to sit at a table at which Mr. Roebuck was to be a guest, the advantage taken of the op portunitv4ide unwise act of condescension af lorded, and his kindly mention of Lord Wharn -Man who, next to Mr. Laird, the. Americans have the greatest reason to de test, have all contributed to irritate his country men against Mr. Johnson to the highest degree. It is now remembered that he is a Southern man, that he always sympathized with Secession, and that his courtesies to its friends here are not accidents, but acts of deep intent. Perhaps what Arneric , the feel most keenly of all is, that an Eriglieh journal should have found it necessary to warn Mr. Johnson not to attend the banquet at Liverpool if Mr. Laird is to be invited. That an American Minister should need to have his own dignity and that of his nation in ttuti keeping of strangers, is considered deeply humi liating. It may safely be said that, if Mr. Reverdy Johnson sit down with the builder of the Alabama at the Liverpool banquet, nothing can save him from instant recall." The Star is right; Americans do feel keenly the humiliation of seeing' their Minister draw down upon himself these just rebakek and warnings that seem likely to be Ineffectual. On the other hand, the Tory organs have taken up the joint defence of Mr. Reverdy Johnson and Mr. Laird. The Standard insists that the programme shall be carried out to the letter; the Anglo-rebels who filled this bitter cup. for the mouth mean that it shall be drained. "The American Minister" says the Tory organ, "is far too high minded a statesman to be influenced by the un worthy considerations which are urged as a reason why be should decline to be present In Mr. Laird's company." It puts forward a whole sale deleuce of Laird and his pirate building policy, and the article is so plainly inspired by Lain] himself that but one conclusion could be drawn. When it was written, the thing had been talked over. Mr. Johnson bad privately com municated his perfect willingness to meet Mr. Laird, and it was agreed that the plot should be publicly defended. Mr. Johnson has succeeded in establishing re lations that will strike loyal Americans as some what peculiar. We know tolerbly that the Tory journals hated and assailed us throughout the war; that the Liberal journals were and arc the true friends of the 'Union. If a question arose respecting the Arner!can Minister, we should expect to find the Tories attacking him, the Liberals defending. It is Mr. Reverdy John son himself whO has chosen to reverse this natural order of things, and who has contrived to make himself an object of suspicion to the Liberals, and an object of admiration to the enemies of Lis country. I have no rea son to suppose that Mr. Johnson has yielded to these remonstrances. The debate has run high, both here and among the Alabama builders ci Liverpool. They little expected to raise such a storm. When It broke they still meant to defy it, and hence the articles in The Mondani, but I em informed. on authority I cannot doubt, that they have evoked one protest from a very differ ent quarter. Lord Stanley himself sent word to the promoters of this banquet that rather than bring Mr. Laird and Mr. Johnson together, they would do well to abandon the din ner. Ho dreaded the effect in America. As a diplomatist his reputation is pledged to the settlement in some way of the Alabama claims. Be does not want to have to discuss them with a Minister whose power is in danger of being destro3ed by the resentment of his in sulted and indignant countrymen. But hie ad vice has not been taken. The dinner is to go on, but the protest of Lord Stanley, which must be understood as dictated wholly by diplomatic considerations—may possibly succeed in keeping Mr. Johnson and Mr. Land apart. The latter will be sure to hear of Lord Stanley's wish, and may respect it so far as to abstain from going to the dinner. If we are saved the disgrace of that meeting, we shall not owe it to Mr. Johnson's sense of what is due to his country, nor to his respect for the opinion of the friends of his country. We shall owe it, I verily believe, wholly to the interested Interference or the Foreign Secretary of Great Britain, and it is not yet certain that even his interposition will save Mr. Reverdy Johnson from the suicidal lolly which ho has Intended to commit. The Laird party thought it desirable to shield themselves with the name of some American w not e toy ally is beyond dispute, and whose pres ence at the dinner might serve as a kind of certifi cate. to the Alabama builder and his ministerial guest. No such person could be found in Eng land; but one eminent Awed - man had . Just sailed lor hence, and it was thought his name might be us/d with impunity. Mr. Laird's friends there lute announced, through a Liverpool paper, that Mr. Cyrus Field's departure for America would prevent him from being present at the Laird• Johnson dinner. This was cleverly contrived, for Mr. Field is not in New York, whence he might telegraph a contradiction, but is half-way across the Atlantic, and could not re pudiate this ungenerous use of his name till it had done its work. tut they forgot that Mr. Field left friends in England, who would not be likely to keep silence while he was being slandered. Both the News' and the Star print letters this morning denying that Mr. Field had - aryl - Litt - nth - in of - tieing present at a din nei where Mr. Laird was to be one of the com pany. "For Mr. Field," says the writer. "is a loyal American, and I know of none such who will not regard the presence of the American Minister at this Liverpool festival as a humiliation." The letter is signed "An Ameri can," but I venture to say that it ez prt the feeling of nine out of ten of the English Liberals. I received a letter from one of them this morning, saying: "I .certainly do not understand how any loyal American can dine with Laird. I, who am an Englishmanomuld 710 i." • Still another report seems to have been mann laeturect in order to divert attention at home Irvin Mr. Johnson's fraternization with Laird and his nest of Liverpool pirates. This was shrewdly Fent to a Liberal paper, which was so fur imposed upon yesterday morning as to state in its money article that Lord Stanley and Mr. Johnson had agreed upon an international com mission to determine the Alabama claims. But this was pat out a day too soon, for The Globe, the evening ministerial organ, declared, the same afternoon, that the statement was not only with out authority but without foundation. THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5;1.868. TILE 11111111DATION IN SWII'ZEB LAND• 'Appeal to the awles and to the wartendo o 8 Switzerleund In the United States. . , A calamity has befallen'the Cantons of Tessin, Valais, Grisone, St. (call; and•l,Jri, which r in its immensity, stands unequalled in the annals of Switzerland. On the 27th ,of September rain commenced to fall in torrentaalong the northern and southern slopes of - the" Alps, and continued to descend, vvith but little intermission, for eight days. During all this time a powerful south wind raged furiously amidst the masses of snow and ice which had lain undisturbed for centuries in their inacceesible Alpine strongholds. Every mountain rivulet swelled into a rushing stream, every etreanrinto a torrent, carrying ap palling destruction in its course. The rivers of Tessin, the Rhone, the Reuse, the Rhine, and the Inn, In their relentless power, obliterated many of the choiceit beauties of nature, impoverished ' thousands of families, and hurried hundreds to a watery grave. Heart-rending and vain was the struggle of human bands against the overpowering force of the watery element. On it came, in the dead of night, terrible in its might, scattering destruc tion far and wide, and piling up in the meadows the mountain debris of ages. Rocks weighing hundreds of tons.wero torn from their resting places, and in their course joined the revelry of destruction. Whole forests, vineyards and mea dows stacked with grain, have disappeared, and, in many places, not a vestige of roads, bridges and fences are left; houses mills and fac toriet are torn from their foundations, and even cemeteries and charnel-houses have been invaded, and their contents scattered along the course of the devastation. Thousands of cattle lie choked in the mud, and thousands of our fellow beings are reduced to abject poverty. Along the Rhine, village upon village lies half buried in mud and debris, and every article of bedding and wearing apparel has either been swept away or rendered useless in 'homes where comfort, and oven plenty, reigned; while their verdant meadows, productive orchards and beau tiful gardens are ono mass of grayish mud. Sixty millions of francs will fall far short of the loss sustained. On such extraordinary occa sions it is meet that unusual measures be adop ted to alleviate, at least in part, the sufferings of our brethren. The Federal Government of Switzerland, prompted by a feeling which it knew would meet with a hearty response from its people, at once despatched its President to the suffering localities, and' ordered to the scene of devastation the various corps of sappers and miners, to render all possible assistance. Ere this, one million of francs will have been appropriated by the Federal Government, and a like sum will, no doubt, have been contributed by the several Cantons. Already a con*ntion of delegates from all the Cantons have assembled in Berne, and relief associations have sprung up in every section of the land, whose offerings will be distributed by the Central Relief Association, or ganized under the auspices of the . Federal Go vernment. Many individuals have given most liberally, and the people of adjacent countries are also busy, heart and hand, in the noble work of relieving want. Among others, the King and Queen of Wnrtemberg made at once a remittance and organized a Relief Society, over which they will preside. And we, fi llow countrymen and brethren, shall we stand aloof? Shall we leave unheeded the cry of distress, the pleading eye cast over from Switzerland ? No,no. must be the ready response of eve ry heart. The painful tidings from our sorely-visited brethren will find an echo here in bountifully-blessed America. A mite from every feeling heart, a gift from every generous hand, and this visitation of Almighty God will afford another proof of the truthfulness of our coun try's motto, - "One for all and all for ono." The unusual exigencies of this national ca lamity make an appeal to the Philanthropy of his countrymen and his country's friends, on the part of the undersigned, virtually obligatory. Fellow-citizens of the United States, up, then. and be doing in the noble work of relieving our suffering brethren! Organize, and let us labor promptly, unitedly aniharnestly. Donations will be thankfully received • and weekly reported by the Swiss Consul, Mr. Ru dolph Koradi, S. W. corner Fourth and Wood streets, Philadelphia, by whom they will be transmitted to the undersigned,ifor remittance to the Central Relief Association in Switzerland. God bless the giVel. JOHN Political Agent and Consul-General of Switzer land, Washington city, D. C. A Teacher in netroit Cruelly Whips a Young Cady—He Is Convicted of Assault and Battery and Fined S2O. (From the Detroit Free Press. Nov 2.1 Mr. Frederick D. Hart, Principal of the Junior Department in the Barstow Union Scbooh was arrested yesterday for an assault and battery corn mitt( d upon two of his pupils, named Louisa Hoffman and Mary Marshall, who were about fifteen years of age. The facts in the case, as sworn to by the principal witnesses, are these: Lust Monday morning the young ladles in ques tion were detained at home later than usual by the illness of Mrs. Hoffman, and when they arrived at school they were pre cisely one minute too Into. Mr. Hart intimated that he should punish them for tardiness, but did not even ask if they had any excuse to offer, neither did he order them suspended, as he had a nominal right to do, until an investigation could be had. At the close of the afternoon session Hart dismissed all the pupils except Misses Hoff man and Marshall. He called the former into the recitation room and ordered her to hold out her hand for punishment. She spiritedly declined to comply with the demand, and tried to convince him that he had neither just cause nor right to inflict corporal punishment upon her under any circumstances, and urged that she had - committed no breach of rules which she could not satisfactorily ex plain if he would accorci, r her the opportunity. This seemed to arouse thl model instructor, and he exchanged the light rattan, with which he had just proposed to punish the young lady, for a heavy ruler, with which he struck her four or five heavy blows on tho knuckles and ball of the band. Cringing with pain thus inflicted, she in voluntarily opened her hand, and Hart struck her five more terrific blows. The result of all this punishment was a' badly bruised hand, which, even yesterday (nearly a week afterward,) was still considerably swollen and discolored. Miss Marshall also received a similar castigation on the same occasion. When the girls returned home that evening they Informed their people of the outrage to which they had been snbjected,and their brothers shortly afterward called upon Hart at his lodg ings. A quarrel ensued, which eventuated in a personal encounter between Hart and the boys, and on the following day the champions of the young ladies were arrested for assault and bat tery. They told their story and were released on their own recognizance with instructions to ap pear in the Police Court yesterday for sentence. The trial of Hart was first called, and resulted in his being convictei and sentenced to pay a fine of $2O, or be committed to the House of Correction for thirty days. He chose the for mer alternative, however, and also withdrew his complaint against the boys, Hoffman and Mar shall, in consideration of which Miss Marshall made the same disposition of her charge against Hart. We are assured that the conduct of Hart in this case is sincerely deprecated, not only by Superintendent Doty, but every member of the Board of Education to whom the facts have been made known. Romance of a Submarine Diver. [From the Buffalo Exprees, October a] John C. Green, the diver, whose unhappy death by his own band we chronicled yesterday, was in his time the principal actor In a little drains, the story of which is an illustration of the fact that as we unconsciously tread every day on the graves of the past generations, so we daily meet in every walk of life those whose hearts are the-living —tombs of burled hopes. Early in life be became deeply attached to a young lady in Chelsea, Mass., the beauti ful and accomplished daughter of a wealthy citizen. The attachment was recipro cated, and although while the father of the lady looked with no favorable eye upon what he con sidered an unequal engagement, he wisely fore bore trom active opposition. In return Green pledged himself never to claim the hand of his affianced until he had accumulated sufficient to enable him to retire from a vocation so fall of peril in its nature and uncertain in its results. Lighted on by the star of hope he became the most daring and enterprising submarine opera tor of his time, now plunging down among the weird and Qtrangeiy beautiful caves of the tropical seas, which held the wretched gal leons of Spain, and then exploring the bottom of Lake Erie for the sunken treasures of oar Inland commerce, Such enterprise soon brought its re ward, and he was enabled to look upon the con summation of his hopes as very near at hand.

The Independent recently contained . the following interesting article: - "Two years ago,or thereabouts,a Wretched little paper, published in Lausanne, Switzer- land, indulged itself in some scandalous stories about the Qum of Great Britain, and the British representative at Berne, or one of his subordinates,,had thefolly to elevate the libel into importance by prosecuting thejour nalist. This was perhaps the first time' that any scandal about Queen Victoria found its way into print. Long before this, however. Queen Victoria's loyal subjects had talked about her at; Mrs. Candor talks "of some of her friends. At last these whisperings began to find distinct and open expression. A weekly paper, called the Tomahawk, was started in London, and it made itself famous at once by a cartoon entitled 'A Brown Study.' The artist represented a heavy-looking i3cotchman, of the lower class, with kilt and sporran, standing on the steps of the British throne, while the British lion gazed, from below mith wondering and puz zled eyes at the audacious and nonchalant intruder—somewhat as the Emperor Alexis Comnellus, in Scott's noveli looks astounded at the Frank count,Robert of Paris, loung ing on the imperial seat. The cartoon in the Tomahawk was admirably executed; it , was the work of a man Of genius in his way= Matt Morgan, ono of the principal scene painters, of Covent Garden Theatre. The pa per, which had not then and has not had since any literary merit whatever, became, celebrated and popular in a moment. People were scandalized, shocked, amused, aroused. Tomahawk's cartoon had, in fact, illustrated what everybody had been talking about,won dering at and grumbline over. "Tide is the scandal about Queen. Victoria. In her personal service, her most constant and close attendant is a Scotch groom, or 011ie, named John Brown. He rides on the box of her carriage, he hands her in, he hands her out, he cloaks her, shawls her, opens doors for her, is always near her. Pop ular rumor avers that he sleeps on a rug out side ber bedroom door; and, although this certainly is not his habit, it is beyond doubt that he has done so occasionally, while the Queen was traveling, He has been so closely, indeed, in attendance on the Queen that un questionably there might be grave cause for scandal were he a Itizzio or a •Poternicin,even though she was not a Mary Stuart or a Cath arine the Second. Add to this that the ladies of the family of Brunswick have not in pre vious generations been always virtuous. ‘Chaeune a son B4t,' said the impertinent court lady to George 111.% mother, in allusion to the famous scandal about that princess and the Earl of Bute. Take further into consideration the fact that all the West End tradesmen, dressmakers, milliners, cooks and lackeys ab solutely detest Queen Victoria.' because of the dulness created by her long retirement; and that it has become an article of faith with all that class that the depression of trade and even the finaneial colpse of England are to be directly attributed to the Queen's pro tracted and inconvenient seclusion. Think then how delighted all that class must have been when it first became whispered about that the sorrow of the royal lady was not quite heavenly, after all. Is it wonderful that the scandal was eagerly and delightedly spread? In fact, people busily spread it who did not in their hearts believe it; and before long it be came the universal talk—a whisper of Lon (kip. The Queen began to be spoken of in eking phrase as 'Mrs. Brown.' .Funch one day published, under the bead of 'Court News,' the announcement that 'Mrs. John Brown walked on the slopes yesterday.' Great mirth was created once by an odd jumble of names in a London daily paper, which, giving a report of some popular de monstration, said the proceedings closed with the singing of 'God Save the Queen, and John Brown'—the fact meant to be conveyed being that the meeting sang the national anthem, and also our famous hymn to the memory of the Harper's Ferry martyr. Things went so far that the Queen in her recent book actually inserted a passage explaining the position of John Brown in her household. It is needless to say that those who love scandal and like to believe it liked and believed it none the less because of this well-meant attempt at explanation. "What is the exact truth in all this 1 The Queen is a good, pure, true-hearted woman— alittle given to eccentricity at the best of times, lately so shaken and even shattered in nerves as to be occasionally not quiet mis tress of herselt This John Brown, an honest, dense, thick-headed Scotchman, was a faith ful servant of Prince Albert. His face and name are associated with the memory of some of Victoria's very happiest days. How tenderly she loved her husband, how she de lighted in his society, nobody needs to be told. The classic woman who swallowed the ashes of her dead lord did not love more wholly and absorbingly than did the heavy featured uninteresting Queen of England. She clings to the old servant of her husband as she might to her husband's dog. BM it is beyond all question that a certain taint of nervous excitability—one does'not like to call it madness—is an element in the feelings which inspire the Queen to defy, scandal, in Eng land. It is commonly 'said by those who de fend the Queen that she labors under the de lusion that the soul of Prince Albert has been transfused into the homely frame of John Brown. This is a wild exaggeration; bat it is quite true- that - - the manner., in which the Quern connects the memory of Prince Albert with the presence of. John:Brown has some thing morbid, fantastic, and almost mono maniacal in it is not madness (yet that way madness, lies), she has frequent fits of nervous irritation, which would seem to those unaccustomed to them to border upon frenzy.. Not long since (this story is the simple truth) two of the cabinet ministers were at Osborne,, conversing in a, sort of in formal council' with her Majesty. A page, charged with some Message, tanned at the door—two or three light taps. The Queen, who had been talking and listening with great interest, became so startled and excited by the sound that she screamed, sprang up, paced the room in the wildest alarm, and for a long time was utterly, unable to settle down to calm and rational conversation of any kinO. .IJnder the influence of morbid at tacks like these, 'there is 'sometimes. little re liance to be placed on what the Queen may say, or determine, or do. She was alwaYs somewhat inclined to be headstrong ; now she is apt to form sudden plans, or take sud den resolves,'from which nothing can divert her. She will leave London, and rush to Osborne or to Balmoral, at the most critical period of a session, at a moment when a change of ministry maybe impending ; and, when she has resolved on any such esca pade, no remonstrance or advice can dis suade her. In thie way she has persisted in keeping John Brown as her personal attend ant, and allowing him to be conspicuous in his attentions everywhere; and no ser vants'-hall or club scandal can induce her to send him into the background, or to alter her friendly deportment toward him. Un questionably, this is unwise; but Queen Vic toria is not in a mental condition from which wisdom can be always expected. She is not. mad--that. 1)3 all any one can venture to -say. "Sheliyinpopular—widely and,profonntily . unpopular: Not in the • active, aggressive sprise-- ; not as George the Third was once were ptpular, when- brickbats and stones were pelted at his carriage; not as Adelaide, wife of William the Fourth, was unpopular,when a tumultuous meeting at Charing Cross threw up handkerchiefs in delight at •O'Connell's daring allusion to Whitehall and the soyop_ eign who lostbis hes& there because' - his' dr lowed himself to be' guided by his foreign wlfe—in no such sense hi Victorth, unpopular. But the mass'of her people have ceased to care about her, the West End dislikes, her, gentility slanders her, flu.nkeyismgirdi at her. Of personal loyalty to her there is little or none. A few high-minded politicians and their followers respect her <virtues and pity her great sorrows; but ardent loyalty to her is dead. A distinguished Nova Scotia; lately in London, and fresh with all the fervor of the old-fashioned colonial loyalty, confessed to the writer of this article the profound disap pointment Which came over him when he found mit, go where he would in the British capital, his loyal professions were received with wondering, puzzled, half-contemptuous incredulity. "goes any one in England desire that the Queen should abdicate ? The West End tradesmen, dressmakers and lackeys,perhaps; but surely no one else. The Prince of Wales is not a person whose accession to the throne any rational and disinterested being can look forward to without anxiety. He is a fat, heavy,loutish young man; growing every day more and more of the regular Brunswick mould and feature. Ho is deeply in debt. He is not over attentive to his wife—the one member of the family who is really popular; he has low and vulgar tastes; he has a tainted reputation. Scandal pursued him from Lon don to Paris,from Paris to Berlin;back again. He delights in low comic actors, and still lower comic singers.. When he goes to the opera he soon falls asleep unless, indeed, when Pauline Lucca is singing•—and then he is all ears and eyes. Nobody worth thinking of wants him for a king. He is a Prince Na poleon, without eloquence, without : genius, without democratic sentiments, without love otietters and art, without a grand imperial face; and just think of what Prince Napoleon would be without all these redeeming merits! No! if the English people must have a sover eign, let them hope that God may save the Queen as long as possible. Whatever her un happy difficulties and failingtcseldom comes a, better; and the better is certainly not in eight just now." Journalism in Paris in 1848 and 1808. A Paris letter to the London Atheneum says: "The number of literary ventures for which M. Henri Rochefort is responsible will make a curious page in the future history of French journalism. The fantastic, punning titles exhibit the malice of the national char acter; as those of the revolutions discovered at once its Frimnesa and irreverence. I re peat, the windows are full of the little lights which the unfortunate Lanterne has pro voked; but the rate of production (albeit three or four newspapers are announced every week) is far below that of a week in 1848. Then Paris was wrapped in paper. The over-sanguine English provincial printer who based his calculations of profit on the assumption that every man, woman and child m his native town would take two copies ( a circulation that would just cover expenses) was not more confident about the literary capacity of his public, than every Paris printer snowed himself after the de thronement of Louis Philippe. The paper and print excitement which is abroad at this moment is warm enough; but how far is it from the fecundity of a week of revolu tion! "The last week in the month of May, 1848, produced the following new publications in Paris: the Archives du Peuple, L'Aigle Republicain, Le Petit Caporal, La Red ingote Grise, Le Petit Pits du Pere Du chine; La France Nouvelle (by Alexandre Dumas), Lea Debats de l'Assenzblie Na tionale, La Constitution, La Republique Napolton.enne, Le Bonnet Rouge, La Colire du Vieux Ripublicain,Le Votcan, Les Sattimbanques, Jacques Bonhomme, Organisation du Travail, Le Christ Republicain, by the Citoynne Sans- . peur, Le Lampion, Le Robespierre, be Napo- Itonien, be Bonapartiste, L'Epoque, Le Diable Rose,La Republique des Femmes, be Journal des Cotillons, La Garde Mo bile and Le .7'osein des Travailleura. The list shows the way the wind was blowing; and if we were to make out a list of the Lan terns and Clocks which have appeared of late within the fortifications we might get to gether a little list of publications boding evil to the Imperial government. "When I want to see whither the blouse ' mind is tending I leave the Boulevards and turn into the side streets of the Marais and the Quartier St. Antoine. In the pretty print and newspaper shops you read the will and aspirations of the proletaire; and I find my interpreter of the bOUrgeOis at the kiosk of the petty newsvender on the Boulevard des Capucines. The journalistic activity is pro digious, both for the bourgeioa and the work man. On one morning I find two new papers announced. M. de La Ponterie, an old con - ' tributor to La France, and now of La Presse, is to establish a new daily paper, with a capital of £26,000. Havre is deter ! mined on a new daily organ of very liberal proclivities, and has banked £16,000 to begin with. No lees than £42,000 embarked in journalism in one week! Is all this activity and risk of capital ominous—as the Red ingote Grise and the .Republique Napo & onienne were ominous in 1848? "There is a marked difference between the two activities. In 1848 there were two broadly marked parties at work. The Bonnet Rouge was shaking defiantly before the Petit Caporal; Le .Robespierre was fighting Le Bonapartiste; Le tocsin des Travail teurs was sounding in the ears of La Consti tution. The two armies were distinct—plain in eight; and ,they fought a distinct battle. The eagle plucked the.bonnetrougefrom the republican head: and the vanquished hosts .turned back into their workshops. But to day you can perceive no line of battle. Dis content has taken many fantastic forms. The opposition is mighty in numbers, but it is a meb without a flag or a name. There are many would-be leaders; the pretenders may be counted on both hands. But an organ to becalled Monsieur Chose would not last a week. Le Paraztluie de Monsieur Smith would be an amusing title; but • only a Jew old' bourgeois would rally round the stick. "While the little press is taking extraordi nary, and in some ,aaseti detestable, forms, the great press the main, opposing steadily and loyally'all the shortcomings of the actual Kvime—pegging away, in Lincoln's fashion, at the bard bits of despotism which deface their country. The recent contention among the printers for the production of the Moni teur is an event which confirms the imprea sign of impartial observers that journalism is consolidating itself fer permanent freedom. M.-Wi ttersheirn, -who is bound.by his -eon tract to ninety-five thousand copies of the little Moniteur gratuitowily, at a cost of more than £30,000 per annum, has de posited a guaranty of £B,OOO with the Minister of State. This gentleman has some faith in the peaceful solution of the difficulties between 'the powers that be' and the Opposition. Heading.ir o oom Bores. What can there be, says All the Year Baand t in the perusal of the daily journals and pyriodical literature in general to misguide men into tricks? It seems to have that effect. I never frequented a reading room without being annoyed by the little nervous habits of some of its visitors. One man will make a tremendous noise in his thrqat--not once or twice, which would matter very little, but at regular intervals, -like a passing bell; and with the same effect upon the nerves. It is impossible to help listening for its recurrence, and the difficulty of fixing thp attention upon the page before one's eyes is very great under such circumstances. Another man will cross one leg over the other nnq awing it, with 0, THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN--PHILADEL/111A, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1868. effect quite dazzling to his neighbor; but the worst :offender- of all is the reader, who has a trick of resting his toe on th . round and 'ca using his leg to vibrate in a using manner, of which 'despair of conve •'ng any id a; unless you have suffered from the in fliction. The more intended he grows in what he is reading the faster goes the limb,and you cannot defend yourself; as in the case of the swinging nuisance, by holding a broad sheet before your eyes, and so shutting him out of sight, fqr after a little-time the vibration becomes perceptible over' the whole rood, until you might imagine yourself on board a steamer. Nay, it is', far worse, than the shaking caused by paddle wheel or screw, for that is so honestly violent that the • system soon becomes accustomed to it; whereas ' the =tremulous motion excited by the vibrating leg is of an irritating description ever young. and fresh. A constant reader at our local Athenaeum '(who, indeed, almost lives there) has all these tricks and one more. On Wednesdays and Saturdays he collects the weeklies as they are brought in, and site upon them while he studies the newspapers. Then he draws them out oife by one, and reads them in a verylleisurely manner. The committee have several times been appealed to to point out to him what a selfish and exasperating habit this isi but they insist in condoning his pe culiarities because has a learned man' and took a high degree at his university. But this is wrong. Tricks should surely count before honors. Q.VMATIONS. . Repented iNge radadeinnta zmming Bulletin.
