ADVENT OF SPRING.
JSY ANMB It. ObAHE. v
Thotatty Lionel our March
Roared with a Eest and shook h« naano,
And hnrlcd the foam-flakes of his wrath
O'er tower and dome, through streot and lnne ;
His fierce breath cot tho whirling air.
Ho trod the drear world, like a King;
All heard bis voice, save those who lay
Beneath Earth’s frozen covering.
Bis fnry spent, afar he went,
In some deep cave to Beck repose.
And now Earth's bride steps gaily forth,
In crown of violet and primroEC.
Meet gentle Spring! sit calmly down,
And count thy bean ties, one by one,
Beneath the blue arch of thy sky,
Hie goldrbeamß of tby glittering snn.
Behold the carpet for thy feet,
•Of nature’s richest emerald dye,
Bestnddcd o’er with flowrets sweet.
That look like blue specks of tho sky;
Or tblnc like drops of yellow gold,
That boast the beauty of their sun;
Or gleam like tiny stars, beside
The shady margins of the run.
Ob, buttercups of golden hue, B
ye speak of hopes of brighter birth 1
Oh, violets of heavenly blue,
Bath loy agaitt returned to Earth ?
And lilies by the waters fair,
With starry bells of purest white,
ye breathe upon the balmy air,
The fragrance of a new delight I
Sweet sylvan Spring! thy limbs are clad
In leafy verdure of tho hills;
Thy voico goes winging through the air,
-Or laughing down the mountain rlUsl
Thine eyes are fall as Childhood’s own,
'A,nd shine the brighter for their tears,
Tljßf form the rainbow of our hopes
■When sudden emile or snn appears.
Thy tresses wave from spray to spray,
The dew of youth is in their grace:
The flush of joy is on thy brow,
-The glow of health upon thy face;
Thy breath 1b pure with all things sweet,
It thrills thy lovers with delight.
And wbiepcr6 secrets to tbo Earth,
Who feels tby gladness, day and night.
CHRISTINE NILSSON IN PARIS,
Mr. Parke Godwin writes from France an
interesting account of Miss Nilsson s conquest
of the Parisians, her great victory having
been gained in the part of Marguerite. Tne
article throws an interesting side-light on the
real critical status of the nation which has
fostered," and almost created, modern bouff'e
music;
INFLUENCE OF FABTIION IN I’AUIS
In consequence of this want of an original
aptitude, it has become very mueb a matter
cl mere fashion. The enormous afflux of
strangers in Paris, who come here mainly to
be amused, and who spend money lavishly
on informs of amusement, Baturally attracts
also a swarm of performers and artists, who
oonsider a Parisian success as the final
cachet of eminence, as a passport to success
everywhere else. Jenny Lind, who had as
much respect for herself as a woman as she
had of veneration for her art, never would
consent to submit her claims to the decision
of so incompetent a tribunal She never
sung in Pariß, and nevertheless managed to
achieve a tolerable fame in the world. Few
artißts, however, can afford to be as indepen
dent sb JeuDy Lind w&Sj and therefore they
are compelled to go through the ordeal of a
Parisian judgment. If they fail in it, they
fancy themselves relegated forever to the
lower ranks of the profession, if not wholly
excluded from it; while success in it is re
garded as the very stamp and signet of an un
challengeable excellence. Of course there is
at immense strife for this so potent matricu
lation,and no end of rivalries and combats and
intrigues among the candidates, for its prizes
and awards. “God grant me,” says Victor
Hugo, in one of his Prefaces, “proper repen
tance for having exposed the virgin obscurity
of my name and person to the snares and
squalls and tempests of the theatre, and above
all to the wretched broils of the coulisseq;
for having entered into that most fitful, toggy,
stormy atmosphere, where ignorance dogma
tizes, where envy hisses, where cabal reigns
or crawls, where the probity of talent is so
often unrecognized, where the noble candor
of genius is so generally displaced, where
mediocrity triumphs by reducing superiority
to its own level; in Bhort, where there are so
many little men for one great man, so many
nullities for each Talma, so many myrmi
dons for each Achilles.” Hugo has had no
reason to be displeased with his own career as
a dramatist, and his description is, on that
account, all the more trustworthy and sin
cere.
A Frlphiful War Piciure-The Horrors
of Being: “flnsianuy Hilled.”
Count Tulsboi’s “Sevastopol in May,” in
course of publication in “Hours at Home,"
gives a very remarkable description of the
death of a man who is instantly killed—as
the living say, “instantly killed”—by a piece
of a shell which strikes him. But to him,
the dying man, his death seems a different
affair. This surely is extremely powerful
wriliDg: .
Michailof looked behind him. The Bhining
point ot the bomb seemed to stand at the
zenith—in that position where it is impossible
to tell its direction. But that lasted only a
minute; the bomb came quicker and quicker,
nearer and nearer, so that you could see the
sparks from the tube and hear the fatal
whistling, and directed its course straight at
the middle of the battalion.
“Lie down," cried a voice.
Michailof and Praskukin lay down on the
ground. Praskukin* tightly closing his eyes,
heard only how the b(tnb fell heavily some
where very near on the hard ground. A se
cond passed—it seemed an hour —and the
oomb did not burst. Praskukin began to be
afraid that he had done a cowardly act with
out any reason-, that perhaps the bomb had
fallen lar away, and that he only thought he
heard the fuse fizzing. He opened his
eves and saw with satisfaction that Michailof
lay immovable on the ground near his legs,
liut his eyes at that moment met the sparkling
fuse of the whirling bomb not a yard from
him. A horror—a cold horror excluding all
other thoughts and feelings —took possession
of him. He covered his face with his hands.
Another second passed—a second in which
a whole world of feelings, thoughts, hopes
and recollections passed through his mind.
“Whom will it kill; me or Michailof? or
both together ? If it hits me, where will it
hit ? in the head, then it’s all over; it it hits
my leg, they will cut it ofl, and I shall ask

models that hettif own . artistic genius
and ! instincts might - dictate, and not
the accepted formulas. A careful student or
German literature, she strove to realize the
conception which Goethe had in his own
mind, that of a pure, artless, simple, unso

and seduced into crime, and then abandoning
herself to a remediless remorse and despair;
and she baß done it with a wonderful truth
fulness of general form as well as of fidelity
in detail. In person, expression; mien,dress,
everything, she seems as if she had just
stepped out of one qf Ary Scheffer’s pictures
or of Kaulbach’s drawings. She is the im
personation of unsuspecting purity —guile-
less, sweet.candid, modest and self-restrained
—but with a tinge, perhaps, of melancholy in
her face and bearing, as if the gentle mirror
of her soul already reflected the dark shadows
0f evil gathering about her, aud soon to wrap
her away in storm and darkness and death.
IT rl!OVOKE8 A MUSICAL WAR.
1 know not whether the French have been
taught to believe that Margaret was an alert
City maiden with the manners of a soubrette,
or of a Parisian shop-girl; b-t this concep
tion of the character did not please them.
They accused Nilsson of coldness, or want oi
animation, of monotony of tone; in short, of
nothing less than a signal failure. One of
the more brutal critics went so far as to an
nounce her debut in it as “a splendid
triumph—for Madame Carvalho." Another
intimated that she ought to be withdrawn
after so tame and lifeless a performance.
Even the ordinarily stately and dignified Jte
vue des Deux Mondea lent itself to the task
of depreciation and found fault with her
voice (which iB incomparably fine) as well
as with her general realization of the role.
But the verdict was by no means unanimous.
Tbfeopbile Gautier, of the Journal Offleiel,
one of the most competent judges, Was ex
tremely eulogistic, and M. Ernest Feydeau,
of the Revue Nationale, than whom there
is no more capable and independent writer,
battled manfully in her behalf. The latter,
j indeed, haß written an eloquent and dUorlm
' mating appreciation of her genius, which I
I will translate and send you bb soon as it
appears. All the Germans and Americans,
j and many of the English—all those, indeed,
of every nation who'appreciate the original
creation of Goethe —upheld aud ap
plauded the rendering of the young
Bwede. Their opinion was expressed by the
critic of Oaligtiani, who averred that al
though he had seen every prominent singer
in Europe, who had esßsyed the part, Nilsson
alone had reached the spiritual and lovely
conception of the poet, This has, at length,
i become the settled judgment, and a conse
| ouence of the little uproar has been, that for
j all the remaining nights of her engagement—
| twenty or more —not a box, not a stall,hardly
I a place to stand upon, is to be had for love or
I pooney, while Nilsson is in such demand for
private concerts that she has scarcely a night
! to herself or for rest. A completer triumph
: over prejudice, ignorance and rivalry has
never been achieved by an artist.

; Tha Davenport (Iowa) 'Gazette of Maroh
;22Bays: ' ■ ' ,'"l \'f * ,
: “A curiosity was unearthed: three miles
weßt of this city yesterday’ in the bluff
through which the new grade ot, the Chicago,
Kock lelapd and Paciflcßailroadis pushing.
Mr. C. H. Parker, one of the grade conduc
tors, overheard a laborer remark: ‘This is a
quare piece of wood, anyhow.’ The man
was holding a large piece of horn or tusk,
which had nearly dropped upon his head
from the steam shovel. Mr. Parker imme
diately stopped the shovel and told his men
to take their shovels and dig for rhore of that
‘wood.’ They soon uncovered what was
evidently the base of a tusk or horn. , The
piece wsb two feet long, and' four and three
quarter inches in diameter at the larger end.
A continuation of it four or five inches long
in the earth was also exposed, but it
crumbled to dust when touched. This was
attached to a mass of dark substance, which
js thought to be .the head of the animal to
which it belonged, and which will be dug
out to day. Mr. Parker then’ hurried to the
place at which earth had been dumped by
the cars loaded at the spot of discovery, and
was so fortunate as to find another section of
the tusk, two feet IOBg and tapering to a
diameter of two and a half The piece
held by the laborer and the ledger portion
excavated dovetail their broken ends exactly,
but two or three feet are lacking in carrying
out the symmetry of the tusk to ia union with
the piece found at the dumping point. The
steam shovel, which penetrates two feet of
earth, had struck and broken the horn (we
call it), and had it not been for the remark of
the laborer, discovery of it would not have
occurred. ■ ’ „ ,
“Thepieees in possession of Mr. Parker
are four and a half feet long, and at least four
feet more of this relic tof a mammoth of an
tiquity is missiDg. So the thing must have
been at least eight feet in length when it was
upon the live animal It was found eighteen
feet below the surface of the earth, and lay
imbedded between strata of blue and yellow
clay. Careful search for the missing portions
which were carried away by the dirt cars will
be made to-day.
“The relic is not ivory—it is-horn. When
scraped it has the dark appearance of ox-horn,
and emits the odor of burnt horn when fire is
applied to it. The pieces are hollow, though
portions are filled with what must have been
marrow—now in a semi-petrified state.
Hopes are entertained of finding a companion
to it when the other side of the head is
reached. It is evidence that thousands of
years ago there existed here animals, com
pared wfith which the elephants of nowadays
are small creatures. Mr. Parker has tne
pieces described above in his room at tae
boarding house of Mrs. Davis, on Fourth
street, three doors-west of the Pennsylvania
House, where they may be seen.
“Other discoveries of an interesting de
scription have been made during the progress
of the work at the bluff where the above dis
covery was made. For a distance oi several
hundred feet the excavation has followed a
dark soil buried thirty feet under the present
surface, and resembling it, which was in re
mote ages the real surface of the earth at that
place. Upon this stratum of earth numerous
pieces of Norway pine, elm, cedar, ash and
hemlock have been found,, besides several
pieces of what appears to be grapevine. Dr.
.Perry has many of these pieces of wood in
(his possession. In truth, the different strata
■of earth through which thesteam shovel his
delved, would repay a visit by paleontolo
| gists, and afford them new subjects of thought
i nnd abundant evidence of ancient life on the
I earth.” __
1 CliaiiffcM In in Cairo.
A correspondent of tho London Jlcruhl j
writes that “Cairo is not without some evi
dence of improvement In many places where
■old houses have fallen,, new. and substantial
'edifices are being erected. ; OF late the Vice
roy has introduced the useful process of ma
cadamizing, and a crowd of laborers is at
present occupied in filling up the ruts and ine
qualities in the most frequented thoro igbfares
near the railway .station and the Ezbekieh.
Not oniy this, but new roads are being con
structed, amongst which the most notable is
that leading to the Pyramids. Not long ago
gas was introduded. The Arabs at first re
fused to believe that the light of gas was a
i real flame, and clambered up the lamps one
after the other to put the matter to the test.
The fact that one or two were burned was
, not sufficient to overcome the incredulity of
' [the people, and it Was not until a good many
i adyenturous skeptics had scorched their fing-
I ere that the vexed question was finally de
i hided, though even yet the feeling of wonder
I and admiration is unabated.
“But the inhabitants are doomed to pay
heavily for all improvements. Both rent and
taxes are exceedingly high. A bouse in the
neighborhood of Bzbeiueh will bring about
4200 a year, and the tax amounts, in almost
every case, to one month’s rent. Living is
expensive, and far from good. As a matter
of fact, Cairo is about the dearest city in the
world. Under these circumstances, it is not
surprising that pauperism and destitution
should be frightfully on the increase. Labor
is ill paid; disease and want go hand in hand;
and but for the fearful visitations of former
years there would be a teeming population
and a general famine.
“A useful society exists for the purpose of
organizing funds to relieve distress; but its
means are wholly inadequate to its objects,
and at present it is publishing piteous appeals
to the charitable; and yet nothing is more
evident than that with wise management this
state of things may be brought to an end,and
a moderate degree of prosperity attained.
The fertilb soil of Lower Egypt might easily
support double its present population; food
'might be cheapened, and the condition of
jllfe rendered easier and happier. Ignorant
'and degraded as the Egyptians are they do
not appear wholly devoid of intelligence or
.industry, as their misery might lead one to
ißUppose. The Arab boys are the drudges
and slaves of the community, and it is not
uncommon to see wretched lads under twelve
years of age doing the work of full-grown
men.”
A census roughly taken of the population
of the United Stales for the year 1808 gives
an aggregate of 38,422,995 persons. On the
[first of July, 1860, there were 81,443,321; and
[at that time it was estimated, according to a
regular ratio of increase in past decades, that
[in 1870 the population would reach 42,328,-
;432.
——•••♦•
1 lie Universal Yankee Hatton,
Results up to this moment would seem tp
show that, had the progress of the country
Dot been checked temporarily by the war,
the estimated aggregate for 1870 would
probably be largely exceeded by the actual
fact; and that, despite the waste, loss of life
and interruption of the war, the population
of the country in 1870 will bo nearly if not
quite as great as the estimate of iB6O pre
figured it.
From 1800 to 1865, in which litter year
the population whs 34,fiG0.000, the increase
.had amounted to 3,116,670—that U to sty, in
round numbers, we had increased by three
millions of people in ffive years; bat from
iB6O to 1868 the increase was 8,802,005, or in
round numbers four millions in tnree years,

Centspoodmce of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
Washington, April 7, 1869.—The wiindrewal
,-of too nomination of Wm- H. Barnes as Collector
of Internal Revenue for the First District of
Pennsylvania; on Monday last, was a great sur
prise to everybody here, and no one could tell
why it was done or who was at the bottom of
this movement. , Tho effect, however, has been
to overwhelm ns with a host oi new can
didates,-who have swarmed here to-day,
and as each ono feels confident that “a new man”
will be selected, toe competition among those
who have not been heretofore known as candi
dates is very great. It is very cortalß, however,
that Senators Cameron and Scott will stick to
Barnes, and get him “through” If it Is in their
power. Last evening, Senator Bcott wailed on
Commissioner Delano, and reiterated his recom
mendation ofMr. Barnes, and further assured the
Commissioner that if any other name were sent
to the Senate, the party nominated must be pre
pared to encounter toe united opposition of both
hlmeeif And 1 Senator Cameron in the Senate,
which might make confirmation very doubtful.
This morning. Senators Scolt and Cameron
were both at the Internal Revenue Bureau, and,
It is hardly necessary to say, reiterated to Com
missioner Delano what Senotor Scott had so em
phatically declared last night. Mr. Barnes hlm
• enmo down this morning, with several friends, to
assert his claims and urge that his name should
be sent again to tho Benate. It Is not known
what course the Commissioner will take, as he
.has “arranged" and ‘■disarranged” the slato ior
tola district three or four times in as many weeks.
- Some people say that a “coolness" has arisen
between President Grant and the two Ponnsyl
-yania Senators, growing out of their violontop
positlon to the confirmation of Longatreet, and
particularly against Senator Cameron, on account
of his efforts to defeat tbe confirmation of Aubrey
H. Smith for District-Attorney for too Eastern
District of Pennsylvania. This “little onpleasant
nesa," It la hinted, has caused the President to
look sharp after the nomination of Barnes, and
finding that ho was recommended only by tho
two Senators, he has sent the nomination pack
to the Commissioner, to see what further en
dorsement can be produced in his behalf. Others,
again, assert that toe withdrawal was made at
-the instance of toe friends of Hon. John W. For
ney, who dCßircd he should receive some ac
. tonowiedgment of his services to the party bv
' securing one appointment, at least, for his
‘ffiends, and toe “knowing ones” insisted upon It
.< that ‘Benjamin L. Berry was to be nominated, to
, jrratify Mr. Forney.
The ioider and more shrewd observers m tola
latitude did not take much ‘■stock” in this rutflor
because, If there had been anything in It, it would
have been an easy matter for the President to
have Substituted the name of Mr. Berry when
withdrawing toe name of Mr. Barnes.
„Tbe thing has become so muddled that It is lm
..possible to predict who will he nominated for tho
'position until toe President makes his final de
cision. Mr. Edmund 8. Yard and several other
gentlemen from your city aro here, prepared to
aeamno tho responßibiliUeß and cares of the office,
provided the President should see fit to call them
r ir6m their retirement. Whoever gets it will not
-find it a bed of roses, for within the last three
, years every man who has held it has been in “hot
■water” all too time, and there Is not much reason
10 believe that toe man who may-succeed now
will have any better luck in that respect than hiß
> predecessors.

All doubt about toe'removal of Dr. Burmoister,

Also, the petition of Michael Ruder, of North
Carolina, setting forth that he has been thirty-six
years in this country, twenty of which have been
spent in the naval service, In which he served, all
hroagh tho war of toe rebellion, and asking that
the naturalization laws may be so amended as to
permit him to become a naturalized citizen of toe
United States. Referred to toe qpmmlttec on
ibe Judiciary. 1
Mr. Sherman presented the petition of citizens
ot Cincinnati for Interference by the Government
in behalf of Colonel Halplne, who, they say, is
illegally imprisoned in Great Britain.
Mr. Morion attempted to offer a joint resolu
tion. which was objected to, but was read for in
formation, as follows:
He U rewired, d-c., That before the Btates of nr
ginla. Tern.': and Georgia shall be admitted to repre
sentation in Congress, their several Legislatures which |
m.nv bo hereafter lawfnlly organized shall ratify the
Fifieenth Article which has been proposed to the,
-everal States as an amendment to the Constitution of
the United States.
Mr. Davis objected to the introduction of the;
resolbuoD. ■
-Mr. TrumbnH, from the Committee on the Ju
dlciary, to which toe President’s message of yes
terday had been referred, made a report recom
mending that its consideration sbonld bo post
poned until the first Monday in December. He
mado this report, he said, by toe direction of too
Committee.
Mr. Sumner offered a concurrent resolution to
rescind toe resolution to adjourn on. Saturday
next. Bethought it better to leave the States of
Virginia and Mis-lssippi under military govern-,
ment, under tbe vigorous, prompt, kindly admin
istration of Gen. Grant, until toe next session,
when Congress could properly consider the ques
tion ofdhelr readmissioef. . Besides, too President
had fall power, under existing laws, to submit
the constitution of Virginia to tho people, and
there was rid heed for Author legislation-on the
subject. The same was true of Mississippi.
Mr. Howard took the same view.
Mr. Sumner said that In the work of recon
struction nothin? was done, while everything
was lth undone] and there was certainly ranch to
be dohe before the country could confidently ex
pect that reconciliation and peace which werp
to crown the work . of reconstruction. There
were also other .important matters demanding
the immediate attention of Conerees, chief among
which were the Pacific Railroad and the
revUlpn of the naturalization laws. To
show tho necessity for- action on the latter
subject, he read a letter from “one of our friends ;
in New York,” expressing fear that Congress
would adjourn without doing anything to punish
tho enormous election frauds perpetrated in New
York by the 'Democratic party, or to prevent the
other greater frauds which that party has in con
templation, stating,that,there was a combination
between Tammany Hall and the Erie Railroad
Company for fraudulent purposes, and express
ing the writer’s belief that unless stteb frauds
were punished by Congress and- prevented in the
future, the Republican party would never win an
election in that State. , ,
Mr. Stewart saw no necessity for prolonging
tho session beyond next Saturday. Tho reasons
urged by some Senators against, adjournment
were not but were just as well known at
the timo of fho passage of the resolution to ad
journ on Saturday as now. '
Mr. Conkllng took the same view. He thought
the force of the argument against adjonrning of
the -Senator from Massachusetts (Mr. Snmner)
was somewhat lessened by the fact that that
iBenator always opposed such resolutions."
Tho motion to postpone the unfinished busi
ness was lost—yeas 20, nays 30—and the Senato
then proceeded to consider the bill. „ ;
House.— The question In reference to the Presi
dent’s message of yesterday came up. j
Mrl Brooks said that he understood the Recon
struction Committee had taken some action thfa
morning in accordance with the President's sug
gestions, ahd he therefore withdrew the motion
to refer the message to the Jddlclary Committee.,
•< Theimessage was then;referred to the Recorj- ;
Ktructlon Committee. )
Mr. Cook moved to suspend the rules that he
might report from ~ the. Judiciary Oommlttoe a ;

Catholic priest, on a charge of forgery. It is

tbe occasion of the opening of toe Union Pacific

There is a strong feeling hero in tavor of the

Davlß, Hong, Holgale, and Btnte Treasurer
Mackey, hove just returned at one o’clock from
a visit to Governor Gearv. on Behalf of Gerald

Habbiebdeg, April B.—A large number of
m< mbeis oi the Legislature, including Senators ,
Graham and Lowry and Representatives Samuel

Governor at 12 o’clock to-day and made an
earnest appeal to him to commute the sentence ;
of Gerald Eaton, who is toha hanged between II 1
and 2 o'clock Lo-day, unless toe Executive inter
fere?. ~ .
The action of the Governor causes much sur
prise, particularly as the bill the Legislature
passed yesterday was intended to reach this case,
„od relieves tfie Governor from the entire reapon
i-ibility by commoting the sentence of Eaton to
,0 imprisonment for life in the Eastern Peniten
tiary. This act was passed at the request of the
Governor, to meet certain cases, and he can apply
it to tbe case of Eaton if he sees proper.’ Attor
ney- General Brewster is opposed to the Governor
interfering in the matter. The addresses mode in
tbe Executive Chamber by Senators Graham and
Lowry were solemnly impressive, and brought
ears to toe eyes of several of the members pre
sent.
j We do not know why there should be any
surprise .at toe Governor’s course. The bill
pasted on Monday was very different from what
was BEked for by the Governor, and he will be
heartily sustained in any opposition he may.
