LETTER FROII PARIS
tOurreepondenee of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.
FAB" Tuesday, Feb. 23, 186,9.—Yesterday the
-great debate on the debts and financial position
of the city of Parts began in the Collie Legislatif.
The details involved in the question are of too
complicated and local a character either for me
`to, miter upon or to be of interest to the foreign
reader. But as they will be made the basis of a
gland attack: upon the Government, I may just
state briefly the main points at issue. Every one
knows the immense same which have been spent,
upon the improvements and embellishments
of the ,capital, and the immense re
sources Out of which these expenses
Were supplied, the revenues of the municipality
being hardly less than 150 millions per annum.
But large as these latter were, they did not nearly
suffice to carry out Baron Hausmann's designs
Without borrow log, and various loans wore
- .raised by authority of the Legislature. At last
hoWever, the Prefect got beyond 'both revenues
and loans; and being what is called "hard up,"
and not daring to ask the Chamber for permission
to effect a now loan, he had recourse to issuing
bills, with his own acceptances, in the name of
the cif . There were many rumors
current as to the amount of these,
but no one really believed it to be so large as
stated, Or as it has since proved. Bat the Prefect's
bills WINO discounted by, and gradually all came
into the hands of: the great Credit Fonder Cone
puny of France. When due, they could not be
paid. It was necessary, therefore, to come to
some arrangement with the Company, and no
legal arrangement could be entered into
'without the aid and the assent of the
Legialature. Hence • the whole affair has
become public, and is now before the
-Chamber for discussion. The amount of the
liabilities illegally, or at least irregularly, incurred
by the Prefect, proves to be no less than the
frightful sum of 965 millions! And all
this extra debt has been incurred without the
inhabitants of Paris having a word to say m the
matter, because the Emperor nominates the Pre
fect and all the members of the so-called munici
pal Council, who are dismissable at pleasure.
The administration of the French capital, there
fore, is as purely "personal" as that of the French
nation. And not only has the Prefect raised this
"money illegally, but ho is accused of having paid
• exorbitantly for it to the Credit Fonder, which
took advantage of the embarrassment in which he
found himself to meet his Mlle, to exact severe
"terms of renewal. The argument of the
. oppositioe upon all this is, of course,
• that the citizens of Paris ought to be restored to
'their rights of freemen, and allowed again to
elect their own administrators—a privilege which
the Imperial Government will certainly never
grant to them, simply because it is afraid to trust
them. It is offered, however, that the " extra-
Ordinary" budget of the city shall be regularly
submitted to the Chamber, like that of the State.
Bach is a brief of the state of things, and
of the way in which the affairs of the capital are
managed. It is impossible to imagine any sys
tem more purely despotic, or more an
taginistic to meddle ideas. And the seine
thing precisely exists at Lyons, thus placing the
government in an attitude of permanent hostil
ity and antagonism with the population of the
two chief cities of the Empire. Just to give an
idea of the rate at which things are carried on
here, I quote from official documents that
twenty-four and a half millions wore paid to ono
contractor for carrying out the Rue des Ecolee;
fifteen and a quarter to another for the Rae
Lafayette; twenty-six and a half to another for a
portion only of the Boulevard Haussmann; thirty
six and a half to another for the Rue °Meier;
twenty-two to another for the Boulevard St. Ger
main; sixty-three to another for the Rue Beau
-4 raur,&e.,and so on. A aingle contractor under
colt for one hundred and fifty-six millions in
be space of a year
• And in all these millions thU
snbabitants have not a single voice !

grams tent to the _United lZitittas,
.that General Dix
had, l'irrii,Publlelieech , ltt Parhr expressed his
83 mpathy with the Greek cause, and declared it
to be the cause of all free people! I need
hardly say that both the speech and the declara
tion ate it Myth, General Dix having neither made
the one nor given vent to the other. The tele
gram is doubtlem of "Greek" origin, and contains
but one ingredient of truth, which is, that Ameri
can feeling in Paris does certainly side rather with
the Greeks than their adversaries; though I think
I have met the Turkish Ambassador in almost as
many American salons as M. Rangabe himself. I
trust, however, it will be long before American
action or even diplomatic utterance will display
itself either on one side or the other.
Amongst the papers of the late Princess Bacci
occhi now delivered to the Emperor are some
forty-five volumes full of notes written by Napo
leon 1. at St. Helena. She leaves to the Prince
Imperial all her landed estates in France, besides
property to the value of 100,000 francs per annum
at Trieste. •
It is an amusing sign of the ascendancy which
American society is gradually assuming in the
French capital, to remark how the gay doings of
trans-Atlantic salons are now all carefully col
lectt d and registered in the lighter class of French
journals, such as the Figaro, the Gaulois, and espe
cially the old non-official difoniteur. To take up one
of tin se,one might utmost fancy one'self at Wash
ington during the session of Congress, so great
is the array of "American receptions" which now
figures in their columns. There we see a
long list of such names as those of
Mrs. Parnell and her charming daugh
ters, who unite a galaxy of English,
French and American fashion at their brilliant
Saturday evenings in the Champs Elysees; or
Mrs. Colonel Gowen, equally well assisted by
Misses Hale and Lizzie Gowen; or Mrs. Down
ing's receptions, or those of Mrs. Dodge, or Mrs.
Wilmot, or Mrs. Coleman, or Mrs. Albert Gela
tin, or Mrs. Bierstadt, or Mrs. Clarke, or Mrs.
Harbeck, or a score of others—all private, bo it
remarked; and without entering upon the official
and diplomatic arena of such reunions as those
of General Dix and Mr. Walsh, or Colonel Hoff
mann, or others of the American Embassy or
Consulate.
The above command attention in the French
fashionable world simply by their own attrac
tions and elegance, by their style, beauty of
person and dress, and by the varied talent, con
versational, or musical, which they are known
to display, and which draws to them a crowd of
eager guests. "Cards" to American assemblies
are becoming the grand desideratum of the
season, and threaten soon to make the Salons
of our Colony here as encumbered as those of
Ministers of State, or of the Tuileries on a ball
night. This is flattering, no doubt, and shows
appreciation. I fear it is also intoxicating, and
that more then one fair head may be turned
by it, and come to prefer the "homage of the
world," which American women assuredly receive
here, to that truer but less exciting "home *or-
chip" which they have been used to receive from
their own people. But still, the infinence,,:both
social and political, which they exercise, is good
and glorious for their country; and the daughters
of America, standing thus in the breach, though
with sonic danger to themselves, are not,perhaps,
the least powerful propagators of admiration of
the system and institutions of their native land.
Amongst other vagaries of fashion this season,
besides blue coats for men and powder for
women, is a resuscitation of the old sedan-chair
used by our great-grandmothers for going out to
parties. The Princess de Metternich, with her
usual eccentricity and originality, has been the
first to start one of them, and has been imitated
by the Princess de la Tremouille. They are
mostly used for going to church, dressed in a
special costume, consisting of a black domino
trimmed with lace, and called a sortie d'eglise,
GREAT BRITAIN
Proposial to Send sir. Bright on a Spe
clad Mission Lo %vast:tug-eon.
The Pall Mall Gazette of Feb. 23 pub
lishes a letter from a correspondent signing
himself "Philip," attributing the failure of the
Alabama negotiations to the fact that Mr.
Thornton, a mere diplomatist, was sent Ern.-
bassador to Washington, instead of a man, if
possible,"of high rank," but, at any rate, "of
foremost public eminence, endowed with the
prestige of great antecedents." The blunder
thus committed entailed the mission of Mr.
Reverdy Johnson. But the blunder was
fatal. The negotiations should have been
carried on at Washington, and the position
and attitude of Mr. Reverdy Johnson in
England should have been the position
and attitude of the English Embassador in
the United States. The letter concludes with
a suggestion to send Mr. Bright on a special
mission to Washington.
Horrible Dos:nestle Tragedy In France.
The French papers of the 24th ult. men
tion a frightful occurrence which transpired
on the 20th ult. and has spread consterna
tion and dismay throughout the quiet old city
of Grenoble :
Baron Brayer occupies an apartment in
the Rue Lafayette, part of which he ceded to
his brother, with his wife and child. On re
turning from a walk on Saturday the Baron
was astonished to find all the doors carefully
fastened, and, fearing some crime, he had the
main entrance forced opened. The bight that
met his gage was shocking. At a . desk in
the dining room sat his brother, killed by a
shot from a revolver fired from the back. The
child, twelve years old, was lying dead in the
kitchen, lullea by two bullets, and had evi
dently struggled hatd. The body of his
sister-in-law was lying close by, with a bullet
through the heart. From notes written in the
wile's handwriting it is evident that she com
mitted the murders and her suicide under
the excitement of a real or imaginary finan
cial disaster.
Mittlame , Victor Huiro 9 s Will.
Mine. Victor Hugo has left in her will the
pen with which her illustrious husband wrote
the first volume of the Contemplations, to
Jules Janiu, with the following message: "To
our friend in sunshine and in shade, to the
valiant defender of all exiles and of all
courage, I bequeath the pen with which my
husband wrote the first volume of the Con
templations. It will be found in one of the
small drawers of my lemon-wood secretary,
which is in my bedroom." The pen with
which Victor Hugo wrote Les Cheitiments
was given by him to O.inlille Berm, the sec
retary of the Independance Beige, who has
had it carefully placed beneath a glass and
preserved in his library, with a note from the
author to certify the feet.
The Pope on Voltaire.
A letter from Rome says that the Holy
Father is much annoyed at the project to erect
a statue to Voltaire in France. In a recent
conversation with a foreign diplomatist, Pius
IX. declared that he saw with pain the little
bold religious sentiments had on that portion
of the French nation .which appears to be, the
most firmlyattgehecl to the present regime.

THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN--PHIL4fiLPIT A. FRIDAY:, ritwg).2, 1869.
The 'Congressional °
~
Don Platt writes as folloWs to the Cincin
nati Commercial:
Every Congressman is, liable 'to a monu
ment in the Congressional burying-ground.
It is a dreadful thing to edntemplatee A. visit •
to that" dreary locality will make a right
thinking member of Congress shudder. For
tunately for that body of delegated stupidity,
the future is hidden from us, and although we
fear the loss of office, we do not fear death.
Tell a man he had not better go to Congress;
for, in that case, he will be threatened with
a monument, and he will scout the idea—for
no man is so immortal as your office-holder.
He may be a walking hospital, an animated
pesthouse, yet wilt he, accept office,and laugh
the monument to scorn.
Needing a little exercise, 'I accepted the
challenge of my Wend Major Swansdown of
a walk to the. Congressional Cemetery. It
was dismal. All the artistic monstrosities
about Washington, including Clark Mills's
brass Jackson and Billy Powell's De Soto,
fade into nothingness before the monuments
to defunct Congressional functionaries. Im
agine, if you can, a huge stone affair, shaved
like a store-box. On that put a cheese- box.
Then crown both with a Chinese gong—all of
it, from base to summit, five feet high, and
you have the hideous thing put over the mor
tal remains of a non-reaisting,dead Congress
man. One would be bad enough, but we
have them in quantity, and in rows. From
this there is no escape. You may die, and
your friends may seize upon and cart away
your remains; but the heartless, remorseless
scoundrels immediately erect the stone store -
box, cheese-box and gong to your memory.
The idea of a monument is something sepa
rate and distinct,devoted to the individual de
parted, even if the stone above grieves the;
cultivated or scares horses. But to be one
of a hundred store-boxes ' of thousands of
store-boxes, is dreadful. lam told that they
have them all ready, with nothing to do but
engrave the name.
Something must be done, if we amend the
Constitution.
I appreciate the anecdote told now of some
Congressman from Virginia, I believe, who
died in Washington from a violent attack of
constitutional law, got from a jug. All was
done that could be done to save the precious
life of a Virginia statesman, but in vain.
When his last moments came he tried to
speak, and his friends bent, over him in pain
tut anxiety to catch his parting words, that
they might transmit them to his family and
country. With great difficulty he breathed
out:
"Don't bury me in that Congressional pot
ter's field. It is beastly, and unconstitu
tionaL"
The Rev. Dr. Hatfield, of Chicago, who
has been travelling for several weeks m the
South, writes a letter to the Independent, in
which he speaks as follows of the state of
feeling in the South:
But, In spite of the obstacles to the pros
perity of the South, of- which,l have spoken;
Northern capital and Northern enterprise
would soon make that whole country blossom
like the rose, but_for_the bitter and iUtolerant
spirit of its white inhabitants. All are not of
this character. I was treated with the great
est courtesy by Southerners, who were rebelo
during the war, and 'whose sympathies are
now all with the Lost Cause. The shopr
keepers of the South are as polite and obse
quious as any of their brethren at the North.
But, with the exception of the little city of
Jacksonville, in,Florida, I found no town or
community In which a Northern man, with
Northern principles, could live, respect him
self and hold pleasant social relations with
the old residents. The doughface from the
North, who will abuse his native State, do,-
' nounce the Abolitionists and pronounce the
word "nigger"with the proper emphasie,may
find thiti an open 'sesame 'to the so-called
"good society" of the South. But a loyalist,
who is frank and manly, will find himself
ostracised by the men of whom Solomon de
clares, "Though thou ahouldet bray them in
a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet
will not their folly depart from them."
This is in most emphatic opposition to the
views of General Imboden, who says that in
Virginia speech is as free as it is in Massa
chusetts. His language is as follows:
The laws of genteel society are in force
here, and a bully or a blackguard who trans
gresses them so far as to offer a personal
insult by wholesale criminating remarks, will
be as readily accommodated with a fight, as I
would expect to be on Boston Common,were
I to"Huzza for Jeff. Davis" there and"Daam
the whole Yankee nation." But a gentleman
and man of sense and character can speak,
write and publish, with perfect freedom, any
of the political dogmas of the day; and if, in
other respects, he is what he should be here,
or in any community, his social standing will
be exactly what he chooses to make it fir
himself.
Freedom at the South.
The Delaware Peach Crop.
. The Wilmington Commercial of yester—
day says:
The peach crop is not injured yet. It is
true the unusually mild winter has forced the
buds to an unusual development for this sea—
son of year, but as the recent cold spell was
not accompanied by raia no harm was done
either to the leaf, buds, or the larger buds
containing the germs of peaches. Levi G.
Clark, 'Esq., of this city, who has 20,000
trees which should bear fruit this season, has
just returned from an examination of his
orchards in Bent county, and has left with
us specimen branches cut from the trees of
both early and late varieties. On the latter
there is but a slight development of the bud,
they are probably not sufficiently ad—
va s ccd for any weather to utterly destroy
them. In•the early varieties, however, there
is a considerable development, the buds hat
ing begun to swell when the recent cold spell
came on. We examined these with care
and found the embryo peaches inside living
and uninjured. The twigs are in our publi
cation office, and any one familiar with fruit
culture can readily satisfy himself that they
give no evidence of any injury to the fruit.
The great danger now is rain followed by
severe cold. The cup-like structure of the
fruit bud—which is a separate bud, of course,
from that which . produces the leaf—enabled
it to hold water which, being once frozen,
entirely destroys the infant peach. Should
the present rain be followed by freezing
weather, the early varieties, if not the whole
crop,
„ would be in imminent danger of de
struction.
If the crop does fortunately escape all the
dangers arising from our variable climate,
it promises to be a very large one, the buds
being most abundant and tne trees in fine,
thrifty condition. 'Thus far we are safe in
saying the prospect is excellent and we can
not in this be mistaken, notwithstanding the
fears of timid and nervous people.

of the South appear prosperous enough under
the present tariff to render an additional duty

sugar, and, consequently, they cannot recom

I COSCLUSIOS OF YESTERDAY'S PROCSEDIZCOS.
The Senate resumed its legislative session at 2
o'clock, and continued the consideration of the
bill to strengthen the ttuolic credit and relating
to contracts for the payment of coin. The ques
tion being on Mr. Sumner's motion to strike out
the 2d section, and on MI. Howard's amendment
providing that the contract shall be written,
that amendment was modified by making the
2d section read that any written contract, here
after made, speci fi cally payable in coin, etc.,
and as so modified was agreed to.
Mr. Bayard argued in lavor of striking out the
second section, slaying that it was an attempt to
emasculate the decision of the Supreme Court,
and that it would lead to endless litigation.
Mr. Stewart's amendment Was rejected.
Mr. Sumner's amendment was agreed to, to
strike out the 2d section. Yeas 27, nays 14.
Mr.Thnrman moved to amend the first section.
by providing that It shall not apply to the Five
twenty bonds. Rejected—Yeas, 12; nays, 30, as
follows :
Yeas--Messrs. Bayard, Borernan, Cisserly,
Cole, Morton, Osborne, Pratt, Ross, Sprague,
Stockton, Thurman, Vickers-12.
Nars—Messrs. Abbott, Anthony, Browniew,
Carpenter, Conkling, Corbett, Cragin, Drake,
Fenton, Ferry, Gilbert, Grimes, Hamlin, Haines,
Kellogg, McDonald, Morrill, Nye, Patterson,
Ramsey, Sawyer. Schurz, Scott. Snerman, Stew
art, Sumner, Tipton, Trumbull, Warner, Wll
-
Mr. Morton moved to amend the first section
by striking out after the word "law" the words
"authorizing the Issue of any such obligation,"
so that it will read: "And of all the Interest
bearing obligations of the United States, except
in cases where the law expressly provides that
the sum may be paid in lawful money," .11,:c.
He explained his amendment by showing that
it was not in every case that the law authorizing
the issue of bonds provided for the manner In
which they were to be paid. That provision was
sometimes made in the laws, and, therefore, this
section should be made general In its effects.
Mr. Morrill opposed the amendment, and said
that the Senator from Indiana was going as far
in his doctrines as Mr. Pendleton, who had at
tained such notoriety on that question.
Mr. Morton retorted that the Senator from Ver
mont either did not know his (Mr. Morton's) po
sition, or did not know Mr. Pendleton's position.
He went on to argue that if the country would
have returned to specie payments before any of
these bonds became due, such bonds would have
to be paid in gold, and if they fell due before the
resumption of specie payment, they could not be
paid in gold. Therefore, ho felt that all this legis
lation was superfluous, except as to its effect on
the value of the bonds.
After farther discussion, the amendment was
rejected—yeas 14, nays 32, and without disposing
of the bill the Senate, at four o'clock, adjourned
until Monday next.

JOHN (. BINECILINHIDOE AT HOME
He Makes a speech,
On Tuesday night John C. Breekinridge en
tered Lexington, Ky., his old home. His
rebel friends gave him a hearty welcome at the
depot, Ole.; whickhe was conveyed through the
heavy storm to the residence of his cousin, Col.
W. 0. P. Brectduridge, late C. S. A.
General B. expressed his anxiety to avoid any
public demonstrations, saying that be would
much prefer to take his friends singly by the
hand than to meet them in a public reception.
He says that he has returned with the view of
confining himself to the practice of his pro
fession (the law), and that he designs to take no
part in politics. He does not regard him Self as
qualified at this time to form an opinion respect
ing the politics of the country, either- - State or
Federal, his long absence having rendered him
somewhat unfamiliar with the movements of
parties here.
A SERENADE.
Despite the rain a serenade tool place at half
past ten to-night, preceded by. bonfires ...and
rockets. A large crowd,•preceded by a band, as
sembled in front of the house, the band playing
and the people cheering for General Breckinridge.
When the band had ceased playing ,4 11Mnegiweet,
Home," aomebody called for "Hail to the Chief,"
and the crowd demanded 'sDisle." The rain was
falling in torrents then, but loud calls of "down
umbrellas" were made, and down went umbrel
las and up went cheers into the air.
At this point General B. appeared, and amid
deafening cheers commenced speaking. His re
marks attracted close attention, and were greeted
at the close with rounds of cheers.

"Fellow Citizens : In returning home after so
long MI absence, I would be a very strange being
if I were insensible to this very cordial reception
from my friends and neighbors. I feel it deeply,
and I thank you sincerely. Recently I have ob
served that It is very difficult for persons in my
situation to pursue that line of conduct that they
might wish to pursue. Nevertheless, It may
be proper to say that I accept this
informal but most cordial welcome as purely
personal, and containing no particle of
,political
significance. LA. voice, "That's right." I In
deed, I • can and will , say that the tremendous
events 'of the last eight years have had a great
tendency to deaden,-If not -destroy, old party
feelings; and for myself I can truly declare that
I no more feel the political excitements that mark
• the scenes of my former years, than if I were an
extinct volcano. I will net now say more,
except to express the pleasure that feel in
coining back,, to the people whom Iso dearly
• loved."

Ville Courier-Joutnal tolls how the news of the
*appointment of Phil. Sheridan to that depart
ment was received in the Crescent City :
"The order received here to-night which assigns
Lieutenant-General Phil. H. Sheridan to the com
mand of this department, has created aprofound
depression among the citizens. Nothing else is
talked of in the clubs, and the rotunda of the St.
Charles is filled with a crowd eager for farther
intelligence. The order surprised every one at
headquarters, and none more than General Bn
chruian. Groups ~ o f men are congregated on
Canal street - gloo ily disenssing the ordet. It is
thought that Sheridan's ,00ttiing • here bit* harsh
and ' unnecessary tneasure, his ' unpopu
larity being known' 'to :Presiderit - f .Hrant.
It was said by-moderate Republicans that it was
a mistake to Vend hitn 'here. The extreme Radi

Said to Imitiarmed" : at the prospect, astelears
Sheridan may hamper him, andperhaps take the
reins out of - his hands. Preparations to receive'
Sheridan are freely discussed by the negroes, who
expect • a gala day. The different Democratic
Clubs, it is said, will use every exertion to avoid
any collision with the negroes."

need to indulge in the pastime .of murdering

wholesale. in the palmy days of A. J., will ,be re
membered by the general reader, and it will also
be remembered that the General was removed
from the department because of his unpopularity
with exactly this • class. He is no doubt re
assigned to duty at New Orleans on account of
the same unpopularity. But law-abiding citi
zens will rejoice at his return, in the faith, not
likely to be disappointed, that he means business,
and that he is just the man to make white rebels
and negroes alike behave themselves and obey
the laws.

Tits False Tidings of Dr. Livingston.
The following letter, dated Zanzibar, 24th No
vember, is from Mr. Kirk, acting political agent
of the British Government:
" Sir : For the information of his Excellency
the Governor in Council, I have the honor to re
port that I was awaited on yesterday by Abdoolla
bin Omar r consin to Sultan Abdoolla of Johanna,
the bearer of a letter from his Highness, in which'
I was told that Moose, the leader of those Johan
na men who deserted Dr. Livingston near Lake
Nyassa,and who returned to Zanzibar,bearlng the
false tale of his murder, had been imprisoned
in irons at Johanita for eight mbliths, and was
now sent to Zanzibar and placed in my hands for
further punishment or liberation. In reply, I in
'formed King Abdoolla's agent that his Highness
bad, by the punishment inflicted on Moose, anti
cipated the wish of her Majesty's government,
and that now it would be my duty to set him free,
but as one banished from his native land. I
assured the King's envoy that her Majesty's
government would receive with much eatlafaction
the assurance of friendship shown by this act—
Moose having caused so mach grief and anxiety
through his cowardly flight and base lies. Ac
cordingly I have the honor to inform you that
the prisoner Moose has been set at liberty, but
cautioned pot to return to Johanna without the
King's permission."
