- • :-' Letter from Victor
The following, letter, from Victor Hugo to
Alphohee KarrhaS been made public
• - II APTEVILLn • HOUSE, May 30, 1869:—My
Dear Alphonse' Karr: This - letter -need not be
- publi-bect unless you wish it. For my own part
I danot ask Publicity. I never defend myself
from any imputation. My friendship- simply
gives you a pieee of information—that's all.
My attention has been called to. a • page of
yours, in which you represent Inc as having
been 'very assiduous' at the Elysee. Allow
ice to tell you, in the most friendly way, that
this is a mistake. I never visited the Elysee
more than four times. I could give
you the:dates. After the repudiation of the
ietterto Edgar Ney I never set foot in it. In
1848 I was only a Liberal; it was not till 1849
that I became a Republican. The . truth then
appeared to me, and overcame me. After
June 13, when I saw the Republic down, I
took more interest in its good right than ever,
because it was oppressed unto dmth. I , then
ranged ray Self resolutely under the banner of
the weaker side. • One day I shall perhaps tell
the story. Those who say against me • that I
wae.nOt a Republican of the 'eve' are right. I
pined the:Republican party: very. late, only
hust in time to take my part in exile. That I
ave, it is well. Your old friend,
I ‘VicToll HUGO."
Gustave Dore in the Paris Riots.:
Gustave Dore, the well-known painter,went
out, like everybody else, to see the rioting in.
Paris. 'He was in his working clothes, that is;
in a blouse, and was mistaken fora ijalnin
from his youthful •appearance. Some of the
individinds who sow money to reap dis
turbance were doubtless led into error by that
circumstance; for; on bore feeling some one
touchhiS pOcket, he put his hand into it and
found there apiece of five francs which he had
never placed there. On the strength of his
costume and face he was paid to aid, in the
riot!
State of Paris-- App of a Coup
The Paris correspondent of the Pall Mall
Gazelle writes } on June 15: That the state of
Paris is sufficiently alarming you may gather
from the fact. that the arbitrary manner in
which the GovernMent has been treat
ing journalists has induced M. Emile de Girar
din, who is head of the syndicate of the fourth
estate, to call a meeting of that body to-mor
row to consider the situation. In some quar
ters a coup . d'etat is expected, and M. Thiers,
apprehensive that such a measure is in con
templation., has advised at least one friend to
get beyond the reach of danger.
_ _ _
'Uses of the Paris Riots. .
Whoever is responsible for the recent dis
turbances in Paris, says the Pall Mall : Gazette
of June 17, it is tolerably clear that the
Emperor means to make the most of them.
They are to be turned to account not merely
as a pretext for refusing all liberal concessions,
but also for the purpose of discrediting those
"old parties" •of whom the Effiperor still
stands msuch nervous dread. We gather from
the Paris correspondent of the Telegraph,
whose mission is sufticientlx notorious, that
the course of the official ingtiry as to the riots
has already been shaped out; and that the evi
dence tobc produced is all cut and dry. Re
pea.tingthe rumor that the rioters were paid
for their work, he adds the following, insmini,-
tiou :'"One thing is very certain—the friends
of a certain party highly respected in their
exile have for a-long time been indulging in
prophecies' Which have been strangely ful
filled. Time will .Show; but, if it should turn
out as i expect; it will indeed be a case of save
me from-My garrulous friends. It is one thing
to fail in secret, another to be found out."
That evidence of the kind here indicated will
be duly forthcoming, as the well-informed cor
respondent says, we do not doubt, but its value
is anothet question.
Items of the Mots
The Emperor of France has distributed $2,-
000 among the guards of Paris as a reward for
their meritorious conduct during the recent
disturbances:
During, the Paris disturbances all the a, - r
morers deposited their arms at the Louvre and
at the various maiiies of their respective dis
tricts. Thousands of percussion cartridges
were thrown in the streets by the crowd in the
hope that the stamping of the horses would
cause them to explode.
It is said that all the persons arrested and
interrogated up to this time in Paris make
identical declarations as to the sums which
they have received and the manner in which
the latter were handed to them. The dis
tributors said, "Ven.r-tu un balai?" ("Do you
want a broom ?") and on an affirmative answer
being given a sum of 12. f. 50c. was presented to
each and they went to work.
The damages caused to the kiosks, the mar
kets, and the shops during the late Paris riots,
is estimated at 60,000 f. But to this must be
added the losses incurred by the cates and
other establishments on the Boulevards, closed
about eight o'clock, and thus deprived of the
sale necessary to meet their enormous ex
penses. The exasperation of the proprietors
Is unbounded. .
Forty-two thousand persons left Paris on
the 15th, on the news of the riots being spread.
ROME,
The (Ecumenical Connell and the Gal
lican Church.
It is rumored, says the Pall Mall Gazette of
June 15, that the abolition of the rights of the
Galilean Church is one of the measures which
the Papal Court intends bringing forward at
the approaching Council. • It is further stated
that the, preparatory labors of the various
Commissions which are to lay reports before
the Council have been brought to a conclusion.
The Commission presided over by Cardinal
Bilio, which has for its object the examina
tion of questions of dogma, has compiled all
the documents which tend to establish
the ascension of the Virgin and the
infallibility of the Pope as articles of
faith. A very comprehensive report on the
latter subject has lately been submitted to the
Pope, and is now in his Holiness's hands. The
Commission, headed by Cardinal Contarini is
engaged in the settlement of questions of dis
cipline and it is rumored that the Roman
Catholic Church is to deal in a very liberal
spirit with certain questions, such as civil mar
riages, mixed marriages, the admission of
Israelites or heretics as servants. Implicit
credence is, however, not to be attached,
we
are informed, to:these la.stiiinurs; but certain
it is that the right of the Church to preside
over education in all its branches is to be very
peremptorily reasserted.
The - Pope is said to be, engaged in superin
tending the compilation, by several writers, of
a work on the Catholic episcopate, showing
the eminent services it has rendered to the
Papacy. The limy Father wished to postpone
the secret consistory. There are, however, so
mummy dioceses without Bishops, that delay
might create disorder in the Church; hence
the consistory will assemble on the 25th. But
the proceedings will be
.contined to the nomi
nation of Bishops to the vacant sees, and the
deliverv_of an alloention_by 1 hoPape,_ref -
ring to passing 'events. The creation of Car
dinals is deferred till September.
FAILURE °ACHE FILIBUSTERS
The Quaker City Not Sailed, am Reported.
The New York Tones of toAtiy says
It transpired yesterday that the report of the
sailing of the steamer Quaker
,City for Cuba is
• a total fabrication, devised for the purpose of -
creating a sensation.. It is contradicted , by un
doubted authority-- , no less than that of lsl'ar
shal BarloW, who has been constantly
on the watch to intercept the
departure of expeditions calculated
to cause a violation of the neutrality laws.
31arslial Barlow received intelligence On
Timrstlay last that a number of Cuban recruit'
would be conveyed on Saturday evening by.
tugboats from aifferent points arouncl New.
'York to a vessel which awaited. them.' in

was, consequently ordered -:_to:.keep, a close
scrutiny on the 'Milting and prevent her Sail . -
ing at all hazards. Marshal Barlow himself
embarked on tlie tugboat Sarah- and
made an inspection of the shores on both
sides of the Hudson river, hoping to en
counter the . filibuster., and circumventtheir
designs.
At a very late lioni on SaturdaY night it was: .
reported that three. parties of men had been
taken on board tugboats and were coming
down the river. The Catherine Whiting Was
then watched more' carefully, it being under-,
stood that she was soon to leave her place
of anchorage.. A blank" cartridge was
promptly fired t her from the revenue cut
ter, fbllowed by a howitzer „shot, when the
Whiting, manifested no intntion to come
to. The second shot whizzed across her
bows and then she quickly came to anchor,.
and was boarded by the United States officers.
She was subsequently ordered to be detained,
and the revenue cutter was stationed along,
side of her, with guns loaded, in readiness to
meet any contingency. - The tugboats with the'
filibusters on board disappeared In the dark
. ness, and what became of them was not ascer
tained,hut it is supposed they disembarked
after discovering that the Whiting had been
captured.
Marshal Barlow emphatically denies that
any expedition has left this city at any time
for the invasion of Cuba, except the steamer
Petit, whose departure was chronicled in the
Times several weeks ago. He says that the
latter vessel only carried about 200 men, who
were intended to take charge of the ordnance
which she had on board" until. it safely
reached the hands of the'Cuban insurrection

GENERAL\JOHNA.
General Dlx On Oar Relations With
European Powers...Franee Cordial—No
War Between Us and England—All
Bluster, but No Blood.
A New York Herald reporter has been boring
General Dix. From his r9port of the con
versation we take the following:
Reporter—lt would be interesting to know,
General, from you, Who have so recently re
turned from a high diplomatic position in
Europe, what the exact condition of our rela,
tions are with the .governmehts 'across the
water.
General—With France our relations are of
the best and Most cordial cheraoter.l The Em
peror frequently expressed to me his desire to
maintain with. .America that ancient amity
that began Ntiltlilhe inception of this republic.
In all ruy_beireSpondence with the imperial
government, and on every question I have
bad occasion to bring before it for considera'j
tion, nothing was wanting to show that a sin
cere desire prevailed on the part of the Em
peror's government not alone to further the
satisfactory settlemeht of whatever mat
ter might be pending, but , to show
a disposition to advance a more and
more friendly understanding with this
country. , The extradition treaty and the
disposition of - the
. question concerning
the Bordeaux wines—in which the importers
at this side of the water were so vitally in
terested, were accomplished with more than
the customary courtesy of international diplo
macy. With France there is no present nor
prospective difference. ' The end of possible
complication occurred with the departure of
thelfrenchAroops from Mexico. It is very
unlikely that any such speck of trouble will
ever again mar the relations between the two
comitries. With the other Continental Powers
America has little to do.
Reporter—What about our relations with
England? Is there no speck of war in that
quarter, General?
General—Not the least. The misconception is
all on the side of England. There certainly
•ceniS no disposition at this side of the water
o rush into a conflict of arms on the Alabama
question. In England they mistook the vote
in the Senate on the treaty for an endorsement
of Senator Sumner's speech, when, in fact,the
determination to reject the treaty was'already
:waved at,and the vote would have been juSt the
:-anie whether that speech was delivered or not.
Senators afterwards took occasion to disavow
many of Mr. Sunmet's sentiments t the bulk of
which were hardly necessary to demonstrate
the position of this country on the Alabama
question. In the start the mistake was made
by Iteverdy Johnson, who talked so much and
fraternized to such an extent with the avowed
enemies of the Union that the people and the
press at this side became incensed and rejected
his treaty in advance. He had no right to
speak on subects of a political bearing before
public assemblages in England. This you can
see by our copy of instructions.
Here the General proceeded to an adjoining
room and brought hack the printed form of
rules to guide the action of Ministers abroad.
By one of these it appears that only on a festal
occasion can a Minister from this country
make a public address,and then he is enjoined
to keep strictly clear of subjects wearing a
political complexion.
General—This, you see, Eeverdy Johnson
did not do, and•consequently violated his or
ders. The whole tendency of his speeches
was to defeat the object for which he was sent.
Ills treaty would have been accepted by the
;Senate had he used ordinary discretion, but
now the whole thing has to be gone over
again. Still, there need be no apprehension
era difli culty arising between the two countries.
This bluster that we hear breaks out in peri
odical fits, and seems to furnish the safety
valve for the explosive tempers of the two
nationalities.
Reporter—What do you think of Mr. Motley
as a diplomat'?
General—W ell, j think a good historian was
spoiled without a very great diplomat being
gained in his appointment. He should have
been returned to the Austrian mission, and I
think any man of ordinary common sense
would have answered as well to settle the Ala
bama business. Still, no lack of mere profes
sional diplomacy can result in creating this
quarrel, that some people are fond of antici
pating.
THE NAVY.

tary of the Nary to the °Divers.
At • neon yesterday the Secretary of the

INCREASED MA VEL.—We are informed that
two additional way trains will be placed on the
Camden and Amboy Railrgad in a few days,
to run between Burlington and Philadelphia,
thus supplying increased facilities for the
residents on that route. The necessity for this
change has been long felt, as the business of
the road has lately improved at a very rapid
rate. The importance of having an
early jine to accommodate the work
ing claTises, to arrive in the city
at or before 7 o'clock in the morning, and a
train between 6 and 11:30 o'cloc4k in the even
ing, is universally conceded. :There is a vast
amount of unimproved property on the line of
this road, which would be immediately im
proved and built upon by the residents'of this
city, if facilities could be guaranteed for reach
ing the city at an earlier hour i the evening
and morning than is now afforde I .

ST,LOVIS, JUIle 29.—Tlae It epullicwn. has a.
special despatch from Green River City,Wyo
ming, dated yesterday, which says that one of
the members of the celebrated I°owell expla.
ring party hasjust reached this point, having
aped, after incredible hardships, out of the
c ion of the Colorado. ' ' °
He reports that the whole party, excepting
himself perished• while attempting to cross
the rapids. He had crossed above, and from
the west bank witnessed the frightful disaster
which left hint alone, live hundredmiles from
the nearest settlement, without supplies, and
almost without hope. Not daring to'leave the
stream, lest he 'should get lost, he ascended the
bank to this point, the crossing of the Pacific,
road, where lie received such Attention as he
required'. To this the Republican appends the
following editorial note:
The fact that the despatch fails to give the
name of the survivor of the expedition, leads
us to hope that the statement' may have been
told by a half-starved hunter, who desired to
enlist sympathy. Undeniably it is possible, and
even perhaps probable. If half the stories of
travelers are.true, the rapids of the Colorado
can only be crossed by birds.
A Denver despatch says that % two hun
dred thousand cross-ties for the Pacific Rail
road have been floated down the Cache Le
gendre river ' and that 100,000 more are coin
ing down. The, contract, for ties fOr the first_
65 miles of the road will be completed by'
July 5.

Gsrers—A persistent but unsuccessful effort was made
on the night of May 29,1869, to drill the Bankers' Chest
received from you a few months ago. -
From facts that have coins to our knowledge, it is evi
dent that the attempt to open it was, renewed on Sunday
evening following. Finding all efforts to drill it use-
tear, the effort was then made to break the lock. The
hammering was heard liyi rattles itc the neighborhood
for several hours, but supposing it to' oxide from the
railroad men replacing a ,defective rail, excited no
u la rm.t; The tools, With, the, exception of the drills, were
left. It is evident that they were not only prepared, but
perfectly familiar with the :construction of your Chest.
That - they failed Is another evidence that your
Bankers' Chests are, whit you claim for, them—Burglar-
Proof. ' Respectfully yours,
