Serious Illness of the King's Father.
The Honolulu (Sandwich Islands) Gazette, of
the 9th of September, says: _
"Early on Sunday morning last, his Highness
M. Keknanaoa, the venerable father of His Ma.:
jesty, was attacked with apoplexy, resulting in
slight paralytic symptoms. He was sitting 'on
the verandah of his residence at the time; ap
parently in his usual health. His condition being
deemed critical by the physicians, the steamer
Fele was despatched at noon to Molokai to in
form the King and advise his return to town. His
Majesty arrived on Monday at 6 o'clock P.M., by
the Kanaile. „ The unfavorable symptoms have
somewhat abated, and from the medical report
this morning , we may entertain some hopes of
his recovery, although great doubt' still hangs
over his case." ' •
The Gazette, of Sept. 16, says: "His Highness
31. - Kekuanaoa shows no marked symptoms of
improvement. Daily consultations of physicians`
have been held at his bedside, but they can give
no great hopes, as yet, of his recovery."
—King Theodore's son has rebelled against,
Gobazie, who proclaimed himself Emperor of
Abyssinia.

Psura, OctOber 20th, 1868.—Paris again! Yes,
dear reader: Tottr mantiur Igo I informed yon
we bad- turned our lams homeward, and when
Neptune and `Luna conducted us tro quietly over
the usually bOldterrithi 'channel, We hailed the
'npren"at trpropitiotur alga that our voyage to the
mightiAtiantle would be a std'e and speedy.one.
But, after four months' sojourn in London, our
plane suddenly became disarranged, and the chill
of LeindoryfOgs,'added to th 6 chill of disappoint-,
went, cause us to turn our eyes towards sunny
France with an irrepressible longing, and soon •
we migrate with MO birds of passage and salute
la belle France. With friends on both sides of
the cbannel,and on the other side of the Atlantic, '
uirichelrer vittiyillttined ?tem Was tOnie„btre' to
'iveleoind Ob," never know the*sweet
ness, nor half the value of that blessed
word friendship 1111.. we are severed "by
the world's rude jostllngs" from those
„whom, the ;lee of nature make.our helpnuttes and
'.f531 3 0444F-e-ra 4 4 . ..W0e,'and are • cast on - a
forulgu .` . shore among - strangers whosd 'hearts
may be like stone to our appeals; or still worse,
bestow their favors with an air of patronage that
no true-spirited man or woman will bear. Thank,
,G,Cd f9“ 6 • 0 0.041P" tittalr art; I liave found' ac c ross
the Atlantic, unehthed by the cold north winds of
Gerthany, generous and free in the sunny Italian
atmosphere, - augmenting the attractions - of
France. and counteracting the damp, depressing
airs of London, till necessity parted us, but only
to draw me out of that slough of despond—a
London fog—to :gay, laughing Paris, where rags
and dirt are scarce, gloom is banished and plea
sure reigns alike in palace or cabane, hotel, or
loge.
On Saturday last a latter from my friend stated
that my old room at Miss Ellis's was occupied,
hut if I wrote in advance it would be vacated,
Having already deterrolned to start on the fol
lowing Meinday. I telegraphed in order that an
unswer might be returned should the arrange
ment for Monday be an impossibility. By the
advice of a Briton, who firmly believes the insti
tutions of England are perfect, from the Houses
of Parliament to Bt. Giles, I paid in advance for
though?. The vanity of John Bull was conaid•
erably mortified when hours merged into days
and no answer came. It was more provoking ha
eause,having determined to avoid the channel by
night, as I should be' Obliged to into
the cabin, being alone. The train
from Boulogne would reach Paris
at midnight, and the inevitable French so
ciety would be desirable on the long drive from
the Chemin do fer du Nord to 146 Champs Elysdes,
near the Arc de Triomphe. However, with the
resolution that has carried- me through thirteen
months' travel without a single disagreeable ad
venture---till now—l left my kind host and hos
tessmlth Holmes (the English inevitable), inbred
at the Ludgate Hill station just In time to.ttave
my "bores" and , small luggage placed.
on the train, myself "booked for Paris," before
the clock struck two P. M. , and thersmiling
Holmes, with hat in hand, seemed gliding
backward with the receding "station" when I
discovered we were "off for Folkestone." There
is much less bustle and confusion at a railway
station or depot in England than in America at
the time of starting a train, but when you have
started, the cars are notso comfortable, the roads
are not as easy nor the attendants as polite as In
America. Railway carriages carrying eight per
sons, oblige four to ride backwards, face what
ever disagreeable or impertinent individuals fate
places opposite to them; and , if one side is blessed
with larger feet than the other, they may mo
nopolize so much of the floor that the other side
must sit on theirs or let them swing. There is
no car for ladies only, and under the mask of
exclusiveness John Bull, gentleman, is as rude,
disagreeable and indifferent to the comfort of
all others in the car, particularly ladles, as it is
poseible to imagine. Traveling In England Is
more expensive, less comfortable and more
fatiguing than anywhere I have ever been; and
England is beginning to feel the slights of Ameri
can travelers, who remain long enough only to
see what must be seen, and rush to the continent,
many preferring to sail directly for France, and
give the least time for sight-seeing where history,
literature and even family Iles compel them to
perform the task of a tour in the "mother corm-
try;" glad when IL Is accomplished, and they are
free to enjoy the continent,if they have borne
the extortionate demands on their purses without
becoming bankrupt. -
At four o'clock we arrived at FolkestOne. The
sun was shlabig With intense power on the white
cliffs; the high pier . extending far out in the chan
nel, crowded with boarders from the hotels at the
seaside, who came to see the little steamer launch
into the wavy elements, with its unusually heavy
freight of people and luggage. Descending the
long flights of stairs, I was landed on the deck of
the steamer. Selecting a broad bench on the
sunny aide, shaded by a strip of =vase, with
four straps I fastened my parcels together, se
cured them to the bench, and then seated myself
to await whatever fate Neptune had prepared
for me. There were many who had evidently
never crossed before, looking pale with
anticipation, and others, more foolish, who
went to the cabins and saloons, laid themselves
down, after the sofas and lounges were all occu
pied, on the floor,, and awaited their fate. We
were soon oiliside the bar, and, to my great Joy,
the channel As like a smooth lake! I have felt
more motion on the Hudson river tlwkwe ,had
on the English chtuanel that day. Looking
round at my fellow passengers, a gentleman near
me attracted particular attention by his dejected,
woe-begone countenance, betraying a weariness
of, life and utter abhorrence of society, .which
was, unfortunately for him, intruding on ' every
side; notwithstanding his efforts to barricade
himself behind his baggage. Presently a lad,y
and gentleman whom I had observed several
pnujingand r_e_p_assing, ns if in ninrgli_n
eome person, detected the unhappy individual,
and cried out simultaneously:
"Why, Mr. Borrodaile, how do you do?" Where is
Emily?" The murder was out! He was the
hero of the trial that has occupied the English
courts for the last,six months, the brother-in
law of the victim of Madame Rachel and by
the answer to their questions I knew I was to see
the famons Mrs. Borradalle, who had sacrificed
wealth, position and peace to be made "beautiful
foriver I" A messenger WW3 despatched and in a
few moments the notorious would-be-beanty
appeared. Her costume wee lady-like and be
cothing, killable for the 'voyage, and> yet not
waiting in those little ornaments that the Paris
ions use with little expense, and great taste.
After seeing some frightful looking sketches o
her, in the windows on Regent street, made
in the court room, with pen and ink
imagine my annals° when I beheld
a graceful, pretty woman whose complexion was
•eautiful, and her face, contour and expressfon
breally attractive, though without the least force

of character; net, what' Shakespeare w,Ould call

that drew my, attention to her brotbardn-law
excited my pity for her s and I felt really glat that
her folly had notrieft her 'Penniless, as her `own

the charitable institution who Will exhibit it for ' '
the benefit of their proteges, for the lease of a!
euitable hall; a matter of some difilenity,, owing
to the exceptional proportions of the drawing.
—The Artists' Fund Society have been toiling •
for months , past in the:prodnctions of an AlhuM
for presentation to their subscribing members-
Report speaks highly of the beauty of this work,
and we have the opinion of one of our first paint
ens that nothing of greater Merit in its line has
yet been produced in America. The book is
made up of a series of large photographs, taken
from paintings executed in monochrome express
by the members of the Fund. We are not with
out hope that a few copies—a - very limited num- '
her necessarily-?will be left over after the gener-
MIS distribution of the work to the special friends
of the society, and may be obtained by purchase.
The Album is now binding. The separatephoto
graphs we have seen were of high exeeilence,and
we hopo to describe the collection in detail when
ready for publication.
-The effects left by the late W. E. Cresson, so
far as they were clan artistic nature,have mostly
been distributed among his painter-friends: the
collection of casts has peen claimed by Mr. T.
Henry Smith. Nearly all the younger artists,
among whom the personality of the deceased is
such a vivid souvenir, have striven to possess
some trifle that once adorned that interesting
life.
—The sculptor Bally, who was a, warm friend
of the deceased, and who has surrounded hiinself
with his furniture and effectt-is to execute poor
CreSson's effigy in bronie, life-ilize, for the mon
ument. He will work con amore, and is determ
ined to dedicate to his lost comrade the master
piece of his artistic career. A little sketch has
been prepared, which indicates the pose. The
figure will appear to look up, as in a momentary
interruption, from a eketch-book held upon the
right knee,while the palette and brushes will lean
against the chair.
—Bailly's Washington (the subscription of the
Public School Children) has been set Inside his
private studio, where an able sculptor is nova'
executing the pointing. Several slight but tell
ing Improvements on the original model have
been introduced in the course of its transfer to
marble, and we believe the small patrons will be
delighted with their treasure.—The figure of the
Volunteer, for the Girard College grounds, is
now complete in plaster, and will soon enter
into its marble apotheosis. We think it Bailly's
beet figure hitherto. The simplicity is perfect
aid of a distinguished kind, the type of young
adolescence faultiess,the candid directness of boy
hood admirably felt,and the details ably finished;
the exposed parts, the bead and hands, are
treated with a directness and ease we have
not noticed in Bailey's previous work. The
figure is six feet high, and represents a cadet
leaning both hands on the muzzle of his rifle,
which stands grounded: the bayonet hangs be
hind him in its scabbard, and the cartonche-box
hangs also at his belt. The statue will stand in
the grounds, in a position not yet determined,on
a pedestal about nine feet high, under a sort of,
canopy or belvedere of dark stone, to be orna
mented with appropriate emblems.
_ _
painter,hasjust finished two
elaoorate pictures: the largest represents a
modern Belisarius—a noble old soldier, who pre
serves his army blue as the Invalicles pensioners
preserve their Crosses of Honor,but who is com
pelled to esdure the charities of the public. He
sits with his white head bent in solicitation, his
little grandson humbly begging. with downcast
eyes, at his knee.—The smaller picture is
called, we believe, the "Rival Pets." An
old man is appealed to at once, on dif
ferent sides, by claims for notice from his
little dog and from his little girl—the latter's
affections being in their own turn subdivided be
tween the appeal of the author of her existence
and those of a pet white rabbit winch she is just
drawing from under the napkin her basket.
This interior is full of details, worked up with
extreme solidity; the suggestion is of some clever
Dusseldorf picture. It will be absurd for our
citizens to demand German or French cabinet
pictures for parlor adornment,pf our home paint
ers continue to put out works so conscientious,
EID finished, so delicate in sentiment, and so able
in compositiop.,
THE INDIAN WAR.
Slit rldants Conduct of the Campaign.
The Denver (Colorado) Tribune says:
An active and vigorous campaign against the
Indians is evidealy_preparing--heu--fgregrams
informed us last evening of a large column which
was about moving from. Fort Bascom, New Ides
ice, toward the : , Canadian river. By the Chief
tain this morning we learn that Gen. Penrose is
organizing an expedition of , seven companies to
move from Fort I,yon to the Cimarron. Gen.
Sully's column is on the Arkansas, and doubt
less other expeditions from allace and
other posts will move in the same Harker; 'direction, un
der the immediate eye of Sheridan himself. We -
have thus a column moving from the south, and
from the west,, both of which will co-operate with
the troops under Sheridan on the Arkansas, and
which will force the Indians to a fight;
To our mind no more pertecimovement could
be planned or executed. It is a greater campaign
than has been organized on
,the plains for many
years and has
be
yearsof success, not
only on account of the force engaged, and the
gallant officers in charge of the various columns,
but because Major-General Sheridan is In com
mand. All his energy, experience and enthusi
asm is engrossed in the work, and `what is better
he has been given complete charge of the cam
paign, and - has been authorized .- by Grant and
Sherman to punish the hostile tribes, That he
will do it, no one who 'mows , or-can
doubt.

The first inipulse with nearly everybOdy was
to rush into the streets, which were 'instantly
filled ' all over the , city with excited eremds, in
chiding some 'who' had,not yet aompletted. their
toilets or had rushed , tuniultriously from( bed;
Sevefal light'ShOcks were felt subsequently; which
increased the apprehensions of the multitude,
.and kept the streets filled places of safetV:' On
the sod land, outside of the thickly-built por
tion of the city, no damage was done to any "well
constructed house. t
Some window panes were cracked 'or broken,
some chimneys twisted or -overthrown, some
• cornices and &malls crumbled, and COnsiderable
plaster split. Mantel' ornaments and shelved
crockery were thrown down and broken all over
,the city. Some top-heavy articies of turniture—
like corner etageres loaded with books—were
thrown. Tanks and dishes containing water or
other liquids slopped their contents. Clocks
stopped running. Door bells rang..., Imper
fecUy secured doors and window blinds
opened. Tall structures, like steeples and
towers, were seen to sway slightly, and
the motion of the earth under the .feet was un
pleasantly plain to persons out of doors and not
leaning against any superstructure. Horses
started and snorted, exhibiting every sign of fear,
and in some cases dashing off furiously with their
riders or attached vehiCles. Dogs crouched trem
bling and whining, and in the suburbs fowls flew
to the trees uttering notes of alarm. The panic
among women and children was for a few minutes
excessive, and their cries. and tears were . very
moving. But It was not long' before a majority
of the inhabitants of the city were walking or
riding about curiously inspecting the effects of
the shock upon the houses.
In every case bnt'one the fatal casualties' re
salted from the failing of brick or plaster cornices
or lire walls upon persons passing on the side
walks beneath. Had the shock occurred half an
hour later, when a larger number of persons
wouldhave been on their way to business and
labor; many more would have been killed and
wounded. owing' trP the excltemtint bttshiess was
generally intarruPted, arid to. some extent Egli?
perled. The", repeated tremors, which have
continued up to the hour of going to
press (three o'clock), made most
folks nervous and indisposed to shopping,
figuring or writing. The overthrow of articles
and the dirt made by fallen plaster caused a con
fusion that would alone have prevented the regu
lar transaction of business. In several newspaper
offices matter in type for the press was rather
summarily "distributed," and the' cases were
more or less deranged. The work of the day
hsts been to "put things to rights," make hasty
repairs, take account of damage, and exchange
experiences.
fhe Custom House is terribly damaged, and it
is questionable whether it will admit of repairs,
so general does the destruction appear at first
sight. The chimney top at the north end of the
building fell at the first wave, injuring a lady
and gentleman who were passing. The chimney
on the west side is twisted in direction oppo
site to that of its original one. The earthwalks,
generally solid and firm, became so loosened by
ibe vibration that a stick could be pushed down
several feet without difficulty. The building, of
course, is closed, the business of the department
being temporarily removed to the Internal Reve
nue offices.
Several of the public clocks stopped. The one
on Tucker's new building stopped at five minutes
before 8 o'clock, and the hour and minute hand
have silently pointed out the time of the shock
during the forenoon. The large pendulum clocks
in private houses also stopped from Ave to seven
minutes before 8.
The greatest damage has been in a belt extend
ing several hundred feet wide and running about
northwest and southeast, commencing near the
Custom House and ending at the Folsom street
wharf, injuring and demolishing in its course the
following buildings: Clay street, Graves, wire
worker, Howard Building. Clay and iransome; A.
S. Rosenbaum &. Co. Clay and Battery; S. P.
Taylor & Co., J. Frani & Co., M.Resse's build
ing, California street, near Sansome; the old one
story brick building opposite; New Orleans ware
house; Coffey &Risdon's new building, Bush and
Market streets; Booth & Co., Mission and First
streets; Gas Company's building, Howard and
Fremont streets; Folsom street wharf.
A man sitting in a job wagon in the yard of
the gold refinery says he felt himself perceptibly
lifted up and swayed backward and forward with
a motion almost violent enough to throw him off
his seat.
The ferry steamer Contra Costa was near Angel
Island When the shock oecurred, and the sensa
tion was eo peculiar and so strongly marked that
the captain and passengers first thought the ves
sel bad struck a rock.
At the corner of Market and First streets the
ground opened_in_ a illßsnre several inches wide,
and torty or any feet in length. At other places
the ground opened and water was forced above
the surface.
A dead Chinaman was taken out at about three'
o'clock this afternoon, from under the fallen
bricks of the cornice in front of the building oc
cupied by the:California Wire Works, on Clay
street, bettveen Bansome and Battery. His right
arm was completely severed, and his head and
shoulders were shockingly mangled.
The water of the bay was perfectly smooth at
the dine of the shock, and so perceptible distur
bance of the surface took place. Even at the
cdae, where the ground was almost level and the
water constantly shalloiv for a considerable dis
tance, the:ripple was hardly noticeable. We was
informed, however, that the shock was felt on

for holiest diversity of opinion, and that each

viz.:
1. To say to his constituents, "I„ took ground In fa-J

2. To say 'I ditrer , with other, Republicans on thisl

The last of 'these' alternatives, seems tons by ;

'it isthat which Gen: Butler has chosen. -We feel:
.confident that, while it may seem to :have been,
crowned With a present success; it, cannot fall to.,
prove mistaken and.damaging. ,
Let us illustrate, by an instance that, came,
more immediately under our personal observa--
tion:
REZIE
. .
The N. Y. Times saw fit to oppose'Gen. But
ler's reoelection, and to • give reasons therefor.
General Butler diuntered the attack by assailing
Mr. Jetties W. Simonton, who was formerly
connected with the Times. It was in vain.that
the Times explained that Mr. S. had had no
connection with thatjournal for years. General
Butler, through a nephew,returned to the charge
on Mr. Simonton, in a thoroughly abusive card,
published in our issue of the 29th ult. We prob-•
ably ought to have refased to print this card ;
and yet it is so thoroughly characteristic of
what we , may fitly characterize as the Butlerian
fashion of controversy, while it seems utterly in
capable of 'damaging any one but its authors and
backers, that the public ought not to have been
deprived of the light it throws on the means
whereby opposition to Gen. Butler is habitually
met and sought to be counteracted.
We sincerely hope• that we have seen the end of
ibis controversy. We attach no weight to the
current speculations that General B. will seek to
embarrass by a guerrilla warfare the administration
of General Grant, or that, he will persist in his
opposition to the payment of the national debt as
the people expected to pay and their credit Ors
expected be paid when that debt •
was contracted. Should he do so,• he would
simply add one to the list of opposition members;
and, as the Republicans will no longer.need a
two-thirds utsjority to overrule vetoes, that 'ac
cession will have no public importance. But,
while awaiting further developmenti, we shall
believe and trust that General Butler's future
course in Congress will be calculated to strengthen
and. support the incoming Administration ..and
satisfy the just expectations of , a Ruud intelligent
and patriotic constituency. :

Election Frauds In Jersey—Arrest of
an Ex-Rebel Officer.
For some time past blank naturalization papers,
bearing a counterfeit seal of the Essex county
Court, have been circulated is Newark and
vi
cinity. Efforts had been made by District-At
torney Keasly to discover the offending parties,
and from iniornsation received by him, a war
rant was issued on Wednesday for the arrest of
Colonel William A. Treadwell. Newark, on a
charge of having issued those fraudulent papers.
He was arrested accordingly, and taken before
United States Commissioner Jackson, of army
City, by whom he was co mm itted
to m ' y Hudson County Jail, in de
tault of $20,000 bail. Other persons are also invp
pileated in those frauds which are believed to
have been committed by wholesale in Hudson
county. The information that led to the arrest
of Treadwell was given by a prominent Demo
cratic politician. In view of the enormous frauds
alleged to have taken place in the Fifth' Con
gressional District, Mr. Halsey has determined to
contest the election, and will at once take 'meas
ures accordingly. Having ascertained definitely
the extent of the fraud in one or two localties,
he is satisfied that Mr. Cleveland's whole ma
jority is fraudulent, and it is not altogether im
possible that, should the vote of Hudson be set
aside, Mr. Blair may also be found to be legally
chosen Governor.—lV. Y. Times of to-day. '
