LETImu ICorrespendence of the Philade, Evening Bulletln.l PARIS, Friday. April 30, 1869.—A8 mentioned, in my last would - probably be the case, the elec tions are fixed for the 23d and 28th of May. An Imperial decree dissolves the Chamber, prepara tory to that event; and now universal suffrage : or what passes for such in. France, is called upon once more to declare the "will of the nation." lat . :nay trust What I hear of the reports sent in by the Prefects, there can be little doubt as to_ the iesult. From almost all sides tiles; functionaries iePort their elec toral colleges to be "safe," and the nao meat chosen fav6rable to the goveinment. 'Thelecal administrations have been prodigal of _promises of the public moneys, and have bought overm hole districts by these means. A liberal, opposition candidate will creep in here and there 'hy chance, but the Emperor may feel pretty sure of having at least a loyal , Chamber to hail the majority of the future Napideon IV., which im portant epoch will be reached before the term has expired for which the- approaching leztela tiro is about to be elected. Beginning with the celebration of the centenary of Napoleon 1., and :ending with the , , arrival . at his majority of a NaPoleon IV., the period may certainly be deeignat 4 ed,as' a Napoleonic era, and, if, it ternsinates'euccessfully,'as a long step made iorarh cbniohdation of the Fourth Dynasty. .Bnt,„Napoleon is sixty-two, and shows strong •.141Mptome of 'wear and tear. Many thines hap- Vert trFrance In the course of six years. Public opinion Is =shine on at a great pace. Who shall „say what we. May be celebrating here in Paris. 'when. America is celebrating her centenary of 177b?' It seems after all' to be considered as no, Impossible that the imperial family may visit -;ll3orsica this year , at some period, though 'it is difficult to predict exactly when. The EMpreis is naderstood to have accepted an invitation faun the Viceroy of Egypt (who here : next month On a visit to the Tuileries, rind goes afterward to' Vichy), to be present at the Opening of the Isthmus of Suez, in October; 'and V fancy her Imperial Majesty will hardly make two excursions on the Mediterranean du ring the same summer. Atter the opening of the the Empress is expected to push on to -Jerusalem with her son, a journey which, as is well known, she has long contemplated. The Emperor is still very busily engaged among his tieops, reviewing and distributing rewards. The other day he went down to the camp at St. Maur, taking with him, as the papers say, on that ()yea 'Sion, not ribbons and crosses, but a score or two of pd/es de foie orro and a dozen hampers of chhurprigne, with which he feasted the officers at a pic-nic. The imperial government cannot be said to be fortunate in the official connections which it forms with the daily press. The disruption of, its old and longstanding alliance with the Afuni tear Universal was an untoward occurrence, as it extinguished one of the most ancient souvenirs of the First Empire; and has,besides, substituted, in the Journal Qflkriel, one of the worst con ducted and most uninteresting newspapers pub lished in Paris for a publication which was in every respect a most favorable reverse of the above description. The Journal Official is simply a disgrace at once to both its patrons and publishers, in form and matter, being infamously printed, and worse edited, on the worst of paper. Yet the proprie tors are, I understand, as dissatisfied with their bargain with the Government, as the subscribing public is with what it receives for its money ; and I should not be at all surprised if the whole of this pet scheme of M. Ronher's came to an untimely end, just as another "official" journal has done, and the fate of which has led me to make the above remarks. A newspaper called the Etendard was started some six months ago, and, to the great astonish ment of the public, and the still greater disguilt of all its cotemporaries, although without name. reputation or subscribers, was at once endowed with the profitable privilege of publishing all the official advertisements of Paris and the Department of the Seine. Those supplied by the requirements of Baron Hanssmann and the Hotel de Ville alone , mist form a very considerable emolument. I was curious enough to make some inquiries into the matter, and I believe I traced the ori 0 the Etendard to the Minister of Puhlic Wor.eit), M. Baroche, who, having made some time the strange declaration in the Chamber, iu rr p!% to M.ollivier'e speech on the (I,?.umenic Collect , that the vast majority of the French Bishops an 1 clergy were not ullramontane, but Gallica) their principles, was determined estabh a paper to sustain what he had said So he started the Etendard as a Galilean ergs with a M. Wallon as manager, who,beOdes Feral a staunch Galilean and Imperialist himself, pos sessed the additional qualification of being a thorough English-hater, and he abused our neighbors ad libitum, as long as his paper lasted At the same time, the Minister procured the pub Ileallon of the official advertisements for his Lieu paper, a privilege which, of course, ought only to have been bestowed upon a journal of general repute and extended circulation. But the issue only shows how little mere official patronage can do for a newspaper unless it can command the patronage and favors of the public us well. The other day 'a serious defalcation of about a million and a half was discovered in the ac counts of the cashier Of the Union Insurance Vompany, and when the matter came to - be. investigated, a sum of nearly a million of the missing fund was traced to the office of the Elenclard. The chief editor has been arrested and lodged In prison, and when he was brought up for examination, it appeared that the above mil lion, as well as other moneys, had all been ex pended or was asserted to be so, in the pro. doetion of the hundred and odd numbers which make up the sum of the existence of thin highly favored "official" journal' The ha's now ceased to appear, and its editor awaits his trial In prison. The affair has been another scandal to government patritinage, and Mae made no small noise in official qiiiirters, which le my reason for mentioning it. One of the gayest fetes which have marked the close of the season took place a few days ago i❑ She great banquetting ball of the Grand Hotel, and may be said to have been under American patronage ; at least. it W. 115 indebted to that patronage for nearly all its splendor and success, and the profit derived from it. The object was a French charity, the educa tion of young females in trades and professions. But at the solicitation of ladles of the highest rank in France, our American society associated themselves with the undertaking, and achieved for it and themselves a brilliant triumph. With the aid of such powerful auxiliaries among the lady patron( sses as Mrs. Parnell, Mrs. Moulton, Mrs. Albert Gallatin, Mrs. Curtis, and others, the twenty-franc tickets were got rid of by hundreds, and there *LLB a glorious _display rank, fashion, and beauty of person and toilette? ,The splendid hall wee never porhp.ps 60 magnill enntly filled, and the performance was worthy of the audience; for, utter a play of Nlollere, ad id rably acted, Patti wnrbled Kracefully and gra tn her own character of Mine.

LiNaxte,er,s? tiMecial Cori:monad:tee of-the Philadelphia Evening Bullo, , w /Law YORK, Mity . .11,1866.—The:regular eekly imeeting of the American Institute Farmers% Club was held this afternoon at Cooper Instititte," Alderman Ely in the chair. The attendance was large, many practical formers being present. The various, topics brought forward for consideration were discussed with great animation. DEEP AND SHALLOW PLOUGHING. John B. Waller, of Dubuque, lowa, asked the opinion of the Mb in regard to the planting of pear trees and grape-vines; also, as to the effect of iron filings on the soil. , Dr. Trimble, of Newark, N. J., said; that the only use of iron in the soil was to impart a very flue color to fruit, and referred to the tints of the peaches raised near Iron Mountain, Missouri. Mr. Bruen objected to the use of iron, prefer ring manure. He said that the rich colors of fruit and flowers were derived from the atmos phere, and not the soil. Mention was made of hyacinthe raised in a glass as an example. J. W. Gregory spoke of blacksmith's sparks as manure, and the rich color imparted to pears by their nee. Mr. A. B. Fuller, speaking of deep plowing, said that the custom of filling holes with stones before Planting originated in Europe, where there is much moisture, and has been handed down to us like many other superstitious ideas. The depth of plowing should be determined by the character of the soil. RAYARE PLANT A letter was read from Frank A. Fowler, of California, asking for information in regard to the Ramie or Fabric plant of Java, and the means of obtaining cuttings and seeds. Mr. Gregory said that a plant could be seen at the office of the Adana Express, consist ing of twent3i-four canes growing in a tub, the height of the canes being from three to four feet. It was planted iu Louisiana during the month of March, and in that State could have attained the height of nine or ten feet. There are two kinds of ramie, as of cotton. The superior quality con be obtained of Mr. Buchner, of New Orleans. An inferior quality is called China grass. It was raised formerly in England. GAPES IN CHICKENS. Several members replied to the question of S. M. Disbrow, of New Jersey: . "What Will cure gapes In chick( us?" S. Edwards Todd assumed that the disease was causcd by worms in the throat,and recommended the insertion of a horsehair or feather. Dr. Sauferlhought it was partly due to inflam mation, and lie applied the same remedy to chichcn as human throats. Lunar caustic or ni trate ot silver drawn once around the throat had saved a great many chickens. Mr. Lyman recommended sweet oil mixed with black pepper to be applied with a feather swab two or three limes. Melted butter or any oil will answer. Mr. Thompson, of Staten Island, recommended putting y °pug chickens on different ground from olsi ones, and feeding thlfm with wheat screen ings and cracked corn instead of Indian meal, considering these measures preventive, which is better than cure. SWEET POTATOES Letters were read from Charles P. Thatcher, of Illinois, and H. W. Tingle, of Kansas City, with reference to the protection of hay-stacks and the bedding of sweet potatoes, the question being asked whetlier the tubes should be covered or un covered. A gentleman from Pensacola, Ala., advocated a covering of two or three inches of soil without covering. . . - - A long discussion ensued on the cause and pre vention of bugs in pens. Col. Harris, of the Ohio Farmer, made some interesting remarks in regard to the raising of clover in Southern and Central Ohio. An essay on Agricultural Education and how to obtain it will be read at the next meeting by R H. Williams; also,a paper on Agricultural Chem istry, by Mr. Whitney. Adjourned. Pension Bureau. The Commissioner of Pensions has issued the following circular: DEFARTMENT OF TILE INTERIOR, PENSION OFFICE, WASHINGTON, 1). C., May 11. The act of July 27, 1868, provides as follows : Bearriow 6.

In cases in which applications covering the points above set forth have been forwarded, comp" anee with the above lorm will not be required I Signed . H. A. VON A.ERNATI, Commissioner of Pensions John lAtuenlix and Jefferson Dn.ris, When Jefferson Davis was Secretary of War, he issued circulars to all the army officers, asking of them specifications loPa new uniform. Phcsuix, who was an exce - lent draftsman, set to work and produced a design. He made no great change in the uniform, but he proposed revolutionizing . the entire system of modern tactics by an iron hook. This hook was to be attached to the `teat of every soldier's pants. It applied to every arm of the service, cavalry, infantry and artillery. He illustrated its use by a series of well executed designs. He quoted high medical authority, proving its advan tages in a sanitary point of view. The heavy knapsack, he argued, induced a stooping position and a very great contraction of the chest. But hung on a hook by a strap con necting with the shoulder, it would brace the body back and expand the chest. The cav alry thus were to be rendered more secure in their seats, hooked to a ring in the saddle, MI the commissioned officers were to carry a light twenty-foot pole, with a ring attached to the end. This was to be used during an engagement in drawing the stragglers back into the ranks. He illustrated a terrific battl', the generals end colonels being thus occupied, running about hauling stragglers back to the ranks. In many other unheard of?ways diddle expatiate ou the value of his book. Jefferson Davis was enraged. His dignity was wounded and the service insulted. he instantly made 'out an order directing i7i Plcenix Sc be ciourt-mar,tialed for, contempt. Marcy was made aware of. Pagi '8 trans action, as well as the cloud h aging over MT. Ele looked over the'plates. He saw a regiment, their hack toward him, drawn up in lice, knapsacks; •blankets; , hams, and all manner of camp eqpipage, pending from THE DML.Y.

John flicenix was not brought to grief, and .Davis's anger was at length sufrtciently molli fled for him to enjoy the joke. It does not appear, however, that they adopted Pho'nix's plan. T. & J. A.

Governor Ceary and the Eight-Hour The following correspondence has passed bo tween a committee of workingmen, mechanics and taboret* of Philadelphia; and Governor John W. Geary: Purt.nonLerrra, May 7, 1869. Your Excellency: The undersigned, a committee appointed at a meeting of Government employes for the purpose of making a united effort to gain our rights under the eight-hour law, as really Intended by Con-. greats, would, in behalf of those we represent, and by their instructions, respectfully petition you to use all the influence and power at your command that may affect the President and officers of his Cabinet to a consideration of the snoject of the reduction of pay tender the eight-hour law, agreeable to the wishes of the workiegmao, and the intentions of those who passed the law. However much we may desire to disguise the feet, the decision against the government em ployes has already exhibited a tendency toward the defeat of the Republican party in our fall campaign, and we fear if something definite is not soon done for the workingmen of the party, the Gubernatorial chair the chambers of th e glalattire. with o th er high offices of the State, and in this city, will be filled by the so-called Democracy, and the principles for which we have so long fought will fall for the want of a proper appreciation of the interests of labor. We would also beg leave to call your attention to "Foy's House Bill, No. 2,088," now in your hands, presented at the last session of the Legis lature, and passed by both branches, which we consider of vital importance to the workingman at this time. It is "An act to authorize mechan ics, journeymen, tradesmen and laborers to form societies and associations for their mutual aid, benefit and protection." Doping for your support, and receiving which we pledge ourselves to you in the coming con test, we are your Excelkncy's humble servants, W. BTEKLE HOFFSBR, NATHAN D. ROOMS, CHARLES R. MACAULET, JACOB L. Hwy, Gaonon W. CAMPBELL, Committee on Correspondence. Attest—Jecos L. RErvr, - Corresponding Secretary, 1803 South Fourth street. His Excellency JOHN W. GEARY, Governor State of Pennsylvania, Harrisburg, Pa. EXICOUTWE CHAMBER, HARRISBURG, May 8, 1869.—Jacob L. Reiff, Corresponding Secretary Committee of Government Employes: DEAR SIR: Your favor of the 7th inst. is just received. I have the pleasure tei inform you that House bill No. 2,088, entitled "An act to authorize me chanics, journeymen and laborers to form sock-- ties and associations for their mutual benefit and protection," has already obtained my sanct4on. In regard to the eight-hour law, concerning which you write, I have always entertained but ono opinion. It is impossible to suppose, that, when the employes of the Government petitioned , for a reduction of the number of hours which should constitute a day's Work, they in tended to reduee the moans for the support themselves •'' and their families. Their plain meaning and intent were, that the additional hours they asked for rest, recrea tion, and Improvement, would be so far physi cally beneficial to them that they could render to the Government, by eight hours' . labor, a full equivalent for the same pay they had been re ceiving for the work or ten hours: And there is no doubt that such was the understanding of the originators and framers of the eight-hour law. Not one of thorn, in my opinion, supposed his action would take from the Government employes one-fifth of their daily pay. Whatever may be the opinion of legal gentle men, or others not materially interested in the solution of this question, I repeat that It is'n:iy confident belief that the law was naked for and adopted expressly for the purpose of reducing the number of hours of daily labor, without les sening, in the slightest degree, the pecuniary compensation of the employes. You may, therefore, rely upon my support of this view or the subject at all times, and where ever my infigence may extend. Very respectfully yours, JOHN W. GRARY. Aluerldans in Cuba.

About thirty clerks were removed to-day from the office of the Sixth Auditor of the Treasury, and several other dismissals in the Bureaux are to take place Immediately. The Appointment Clerk has issued stringent instructions to the subordinates in his office, forbidding them to give any information whatever concerning . the removals under his supervision, either previous to or after they have been made. This is to pre vent any of the parties designated for removal from annoying that official with importunities to be reinstated. A letter of instruction has been issued by the Secretary of the Treasury to Internal revenue officers relative to the tax on foreign capital, and prescribing additional regulations relating to re funding taxes paid to the government from divi dend, interest or profits due to non-resident aliens, prior to March 10th, 1866. By the Atlantic Cable. LoNnoN, May 11. —The Morning Standard (Conservative) of to-day has a leading article on the Alabama question and the speech of Mr. Sumner. in the United States Senate, in opposi tion. The writer reviews the relative positions of the United States and Great Britain,and asserts that raids and other outrages perpetrated by the American Fenians in Canada, during the past few years, more than overbalance the depreda tions committed by the Alabama on American commerce. The governmentof Great Britain,in commuting to submit the mutual international grievances to arbitration, did more than could be fairly de manded. and to yield further would be an aet of cowardice and irreparable degradation. Treasury Department Rem 0 Vals—Ge n ktadean. [Special Deenateb to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.] WAPSHINGTOP, May 11.—The work of removal in the Treasury Department still continues, and every day numbers are dismissed. Tho Sixth Auditor's office is the only bureau which has thus far escaped the political g uillotine. It is to be recoAtructed, however, during the present week, anotabont fifty clerks will be dismissed, mostly for political reasons. A still further re duction of women clerks is to be made this week in the Treasury Department, 10 the extent of twenty. Gen. Badeau, Assistant Secretary of Legation at London, expects to depart on the 19th instant. This is the warmest day of the season.
