ZlM=t, FRORI PAULA.
The French Senate and Sennfam Conant..
[Correspondence of the PW la. Everanzalunetin .1
Pants, Friday, Oct. Bth, 1869.-It has been
intimated to me that the Senatas-Consurtum
which was-finally promulgated on the Bth of
September last, though much talked of in the
United States, is 'only imPerfectly understood
there, with respect to its results and opera
tions and the changes it introduces in the prin
ciples of the Li:genial Constitution; and I
have been requested togive some esposition
of the nature, object and effects Of that im.-'
portant nanisnre,.. I wieldy ivith this request
the more readily-because, sis„l was not writing
at the perie'd of the promulgation' I had
_STRollatniteitime-of-aionunt;ithig-upcirt
the incident, nor estimating its consequencee.
First;then, as to the origin of the measure
in question, and the changes it proposes.
It was simply the result of the late elections,
and the riena•aity imposed by them upon the
government of making (or seething 'to make)
large concessions, in a liberal eense, to ', the
public feeling. The sole initiative in all con
stitutional Changer belon& de jure to the, Em
peror, and the sanctioning and adoption of
such changes as ,he proposes to the Senate;
which votes then in the form ,of• a Senatta-
Corte:Mum: l The French • Elenate is
not a legislative, but , a " pon
derating" or "balancing" . Tower, and
gives its "sanction" to themeasures passed by
the other Chamber only on the ground that
they are "not contrary to the Constitution."
But whateverinirodirces a ohangein the Con
stliution must •issue in the form of-a Senates.
Comiuttum. Accordingly, the Emperor, see
ing that he must change his system, in face of
the celebrated vote and remonstrance of the
Cent-Seize (the 118 members of thaTiers-parti),
and fearing also that the Corps Legislatif would
itself take the initiative in the matter if he did
not, hastened to submit to the Chambers the
message of the 12th' of July, intimating the
coirecsions which were to be embodied
in a Senattis-Consultum. A draft of the
latter was suiseqtrently presented by minis
ters to the Senate, and after being reported
on and discussed,was voted,withveryidightal
terations and no material modifications. I need
not, I think, here transcribe the whole of the
text of the Senatiis-Uonsultum, consisting of
12 Aiticles ; but I proceed to' point 'out as
briefly and distinctly as possible the
actual changes effected ~by them, and
the spirit which animates them.
The first article concedes to the Corps
.Legislatif the right of "initiating" or "intro
ducing" laws, which previously belonged
solely to the Emperor, the Chamber having
only the, power of -"voting" them. The
. second article is that which pro- -
Messes to establish ministerial "responsibility;"
but it is extremely contradictory and ambigu
ous in its terins, and is generally thought, to .
have been made so purposely, and to betray'
the great reluctance of the . Emperor to yield
this point, which, however, was the one most
imperatively demanded. Thus it says: . "Minis
ters are responsible:" but it does not say to
who= .And again it says: "Ministers depend
only on the Emperor." Tile proper wording
would'iri• - ie• - beerii --- Tt i 3 ra •• arA nominated
by • the Emperor, env arc, responsible to the
Chamber. Butthe Emperor could not 4prite,
bring himself to this. The reporter in the
Senate, M. Devienne; says that the Emperor
"did not accept the legal fiction which dis
charged him of all responsibility," hut "insisted
upon remaining personally responsible to the
nation." However, by the report, a general
responsibility of ministers to the country is
now admitted in principle; whereasformerly,
by the thirteenth article of the Constitution,
the Emperor "alone" was responsible for the
"policy," at home or abroad, of the govern
ment ; and ministers were only responsible
for their " administrative acts" in their several
departments; like head clerks in a bank. Also,
the ante article says that "Ministers de
liberate in Council under the presidence of
the Emperor ;" thereby, for the first time,
acknowledging them, in their collec
tive eapacity, as a "Cabinet;"
whereas before it •- was , expressly
proviued that there should be no solldurite or
community of action between them—that they
were mere isolated atoms, who were not to
" lay their heads together" to bother the Head
of the State, as they used to' do' when Louis
Napoleon'was President of the Republic !
The third article allows ministers to be De
puties or Senators, which they could note be
before, and so brings them more imme
diately under the influence of the Ch. tubers.
The fourth and fifth articles relate exclu
sively to the Senate. By the former its
sittings' - are made public, instead of ' private,
and a tribune is now being erected there.
This was absolutely necessary (and longsince
demanded by Prince Napoleon and, others)
unless the upper Chamber were to re
, main a nonentity in which the public took no
interest. By the fifth article the Senate is em
powered to "indicate modifications in a law,"
and send it back to the Corps Legislatif for
re-discussion. This is an approach towards,
investing that body with the legislative faeulty
and making it participate in the "fabrication' '
of laws, instead of only " sanctioning" them.
Anti the article was made the ground of the
most serious amendments proposed respecting
the attributions and composition of the
Senate by President Bonjean, one of the ablest,
perhaps the ablest of its members, as he is,
also one of the first lawyera, statesmen' and
orators of France. He proposed first to give
the Senate the same initiative in legislation
as the Emperor and the Corps Legislatif,
and that all modification* of the Constitution,
instead' of being left solely to - the Senate,
should be voted; like-:other' leive; in` 'other
words, to assimilate the attributions of the
two Chambers, and do away with the purely
" constituent" character of the Upper House.
Secondly, and more , important still, he pro
posed to make one-half of the Senate elective,
equal in number to the Departments, eighty
nine, and to be nominated for six
years by the Conseils Generous; and
the other half nominated for life
by the Emperor. Both these excellent amend-
Merits were rejected. Tho first was de'clared
not to "modify" but "destroy' the imperial
constitution (as if it had not tumbled to pieces •
of itself already), and tho second was opposed •
on the wholly insufficient ground that the
nomination of Senators by the "elu, dg iQ
Deeembre" and the "Chief of ''his dynasty"'
carried with it just as much weight as the
choice of them , by "a few electors;" such
PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY,OO:I I OBER 20, 1869.
being the designation which'M. DeAenne,.in
his report, gives to the COnsells Generaux,
composed, as thee theee= assemblies are, of allthe
leading men of the . Department. ` t ;The same
article, however, which refuses 'toenia,rge thb
attributes' and composition of the Senate
in a liberal and constitutional sense, does ex. ,
tend, and very largely, its privileges in a re
,
strictive capacity. For whereas previously the
obstructive functions qf the Senate were con-:
fined to opposing the promulgation of a law
which had been - 4rice .senb tip, to for itB
sanction by the topular Clamber, on certain
deinite grounds, Such as unconstitutionality,
&o; now, the Senate. is empowered "in any
ease" finally to .oppose such promulgation.
The rejectiou of the above amendment and
the iptroduction - a this etiltirgement of ob.
struethre powers "forma good ithistration
of the 8 hit •
to whom the , maniPtdattim .of r.the Senatus-
ConSaltum was Intrusted: Even a clatuie in
the Official draft itself, to the effect that the
"Senate must, state its reasons" for its final rt -
fusal to sanction a law presented to it a second
time, was struelvout ; though a new one was
added, providing that a law opposed once by
the Senate could not be brought , forward in
the OklrPB Legislatif a second time during the
same session. You will perceive by the above
specimen how reactionary a Senate nomi.
nated solely by the Emperor displayed itself in
this question.
I must now,. contrary* to my intention, defer
the conclusion of this subject to another letter.
FATHER
His Probablle Excommunication,
The Londoin Spectator of October 9th says
"Father Hyacinthe appears to have actu
ally incurred. excommunication. At least, he
is reminded by a' letter from his supenor,
dated 26th September,that this is by the rule
of the 'order as well as by the Common law of
the Church, the penalty for a monk quitting
his monastery and the dress of his order with
out the permission of the competent authority.
Such a monk is regarded as a 'real apostate,'
and besides 'the greater excommunication''
incurs 'the note of infamy.' • Father Ilya,
'cintha is ordered te . return to his monastery
under threat of 'this' penalty, and of
course also the complete deprivation of
all the charges he holds in the Order of Bare
footed Carmelite monks. His superior adds
that the excuse given by Father, Hyacinthe
for throwing up his post, that he could not
preach at Notre .Dame in language perverted
by dictation or mutilated by reticence,' is but
an excuse, Since the restraints laid upon his
public speeches by the letter of which Father
Hyacinthe complained, were not 'extended to
his tiermons in church. As the ten days granted
expired on Wednesday, and we have heard
nothing of.. Father Hyacinthe's return to his
monastery, we must assume that he means to
persist at present in defying the Church—and
most probably, in spite, of the denials given by
his friends to thissuggestion, that he feels' the
authority of.the Church altogether intolerable
to him, and Intends to throw it off forever."
•
.His Peregrinations In New York.
The Tribune says ! •
Having refused, the hospitalities tendered
by several of the Catholic clergy, Father Hy
acinthe remsinv at the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
certainly a more luxuriant abode than a cell in
the Carmelite .monastery. Nothing can be
gleaned from him in regard to his intentions,
more than lias been already stated. Being re
quested by a personal friend to give a' state
ment in his own writing as to his present po
sition toward the head of his order and of the
Church, he states that he intended to
do so - ere lotig„ - _, but -- was unable attthe
present, as he was waiting ' letters from
Italy, which:will 11111'1;u:tee IDS course. In the
'course of the day he sent for Father Hecker,
Superior of the Faiilists in Fifty ninth street,
and spent the evening in his company. Father
Hecker sails for Europe to-day to attendthe
Council. Father Hyacinthe 'paid a series of
visits yesterday morning to gentlemen to
whom he brought letters of introduction. He
went also to Hoboken, from which point he
viewed 'the North river and the city.He was
accompanied by one of his fellow passengen
from Europe. Several pastors of the Evan
gelical churches in Baltimore have tendered
the hospitalities of their city to the Monk
preacher, who will probably accept the invi
tation.
IProposed Welcome of Father Hyacinthe
to Boston—Electing of Pastors of Evan
gelical Churches.
fFrozu the Boßton journal of Oct. 19.1
The Meionaon was nearly filled yesterday
by pastors of the etrangelical churches of this
city and vicinity, who, assembled to consider
thefpropriety of welcoming Father Hyacinthe,
the distinguished Carmelite friar. The meet
ing was called to order at 11 o'clock, and Rev.
Dr. Hovey, of Newton ' was chosen chairman
and Rev. S. F. Uphasnsecretary.
Prayer was offered by Rev. E. B. Webb, D.
D. after which the chairman called upon Rev.
Gilbert Haven, D. D., to addreKs;:the meeting
and explain its object. He said that it had
been suggested by brothers of the different de
nominations that it would be well to recognize
the movement of the eminent Catholic clergy
man who had taken such a stand in the direc
tion of conscience, liberty and Christ, and
that as he was now in this country it would be
fitting for them to extend him a welcome. It
was not known that Father. Hyacinthe had
left the Catholic Church; all that they could
say was that he had taken a very bold step,and
had incurred the displeasure of the Pope, and
if welcomed here it might lead him further in
the good work. ,
Rev. Mr. Prentiss, of Hyde Park, spoke of
the liberal feeling that had been growing
among the Catholics of. Southern Italy for
the past few years, which had been opposed
by the ecclesiastical authorities. In referring
to the (Ecumenical Council, soon to be hold,
he said that according to a decision of the
Pope, they were only to consent to a result
that bad already been decided in his councils.
Now it is understood that if this be the result
of the Council the liberal party is condemned
in advance. Liberal men in Europe, and in
deed the whole body of Catholic Bishops in'
America would be contracted in their plans
and purposes, spirit and action. It was in ao
cordance with th is liberal spirit that the pro
test of Father .Hyacinthe had been made. He
supposed that in the strict sense Father
Hyacinthe was not a Protestant, but that he
was a Protestant in spirit and tendency, and
as such they would IWartily extend .a welcome
to him for recognizing these ideas.
Rev. Dr. Webb thought the question for the
meeting was, what can we do? He did not-
wish to do anything that would amount to
nothing When. clo_ne, and thought they .shoiild
a little more light. He_thought they
should know more about who had sent him,
and their object, and suggested that it would
be a good idea to address a letter to him, to be
placed in his hands on arriving here, and then
-something further might be done.
' A suggestion was made that as Father Hyar
einthe felt great interest for our country 'dur
ing the late war, he could be welcomed on
that ground, and if upon his arrival here he
desired to speak for Christ he would then be
welcomed as a lover of religious liberty. Rev.
William B. Wright spoke in approval of this
suggestion. 4 7
Rev. A. J. Gordon drew a parallel between
Father Hyacinthe and John
,Huss_, and in al
luding to the course pursued by Father
Hyacinthe said that he bad appealed front the
Churph to Christ _ • •
Rev. Mr. Gardner, of Charlestown, said he
liked the ideas thrown out; 'but if Father
Hyacinthe was coming to this country still
holding his allegiance to the Roman Catholic
Church,and was to be received by the Catholics
and preach in their churches, lie considered
OUR WHOLEbOwrrxty.
bim one of the most dangerous persons, they
could welcome, and - that, the meeting should
exercise caution in requesting him to preach
under` -thee auspices of the 'Evangelical
Church.

him courteously, and described his interview
as follows: , .
On being presented to Pere Hyacinthe, Dr.,
piime elpressed the great pleasure which he
had 'in welcoming him to this chnntry, and
assured him that, whatever his position in the
eathOlic Ohurch, the Protestant clergymen of
this country recognized in. a trae.chata
pion. of religions liberty, and: admired the
stand which he' hid taken.
Pere Hyacinthe, in reply, said : "I remain a
Catholie,•but will resist , the abuses of. the
Church. , 1,. recognize the ProteStant as.wisll
as the Catholic as being a • Christian religion,
and I shall esteem it an honor and a pleasure
to become acquainted with 'all Christians in
this country. I expect to remain Jiere about
two months, during which time Dull obserie
and study the religious, social and. political:
state of things. I will then return to Europe,
but whether Igo to Rome during the session
of the (Ecumenical Council or not,depends on
circumstances. .
,He further said it was his desire, while in.
the United States, to remain quiet and not ad
dress anY. public assemblies or preach to any
congr%!ataons.
Dr. _Prime then reiterated the warm assur
ance of the deepest sympathy, and good-will of
all Christians-In this country. .
• Pere Hyacinthe, then, drawing the coo
venation to' a - hlose, took the • Doctor's card
frour the salVer, and observing , 'the name
"Irenaetis" on it said:

The Insurrection Renewed at_Valencia...,

the city of:Valencia was recommenced by the
revolutionists when the government 'troops

and the fire being returned hostilities were re.;.

kink :Ind truckl,y spread to the surrounding
regions. •It is headed in Catalonia by Adolfo
Ivarizti, one of the Cortes Deputies, and also
one •of the editors of the leualdacl. Many
proclamations liave been put out by the in
surgents. Though - interesting, their length
precludes their publication here. .
From C.l alonm the movement has extended
- rtte , -Andalusia, where • it is jlQaded by the
Deputy Paul and by Salvochea. It has run
through -Galicia, Murcia, Aragon, and, in
fact, all Spain. No feeler' than fifteen of the
Deputies are' at the head of military organiza
tions. The Government reportsundry encoun
ters and defeats of the rebels, particularly one
by Gen. _Baldrich over the insurgents of Reus
and Valls, which they say resulted in eighty
killed and 300 wounded, but the fact is our
isolation at Madrid continues, and until we
get further details it is folly to attempt to
enlarge on the rumors emanating from both
sides.
The Igualdad (Republican organ) of to-day
says on this score : ^
eln the complete absence of communica,
lions which exists with Catalonia, and owing
to the fact of the Government using the tele
graph exclusively; it is t 'fficult to define ex
actly the position' of the Republican move
ment in our provinces. We reject many of
the affirmations of the Gazette and of the Min
isters, as we rejected with indignation the
news which the Government of Gonzales
Bravo gave of the first acts of the rising of
- September against the,Bourbon dynasty. The
official telegrams given, at the time of the
events of Cadiz and Malaga, completely false
and calumnious as they were, oiler sufficient
proof of the veracity of our Governoes, and
of the confidence with which thegood faith
of Seiler Sagasta should inspiretts."
One fact reaches us on good authority, and
that is the proclamation of the Republic in
Rens. It took place on Friday last, and has
given the Government some anxiety. At the
sound of the cornet the volunteers, who were
all under arms, occupied-all the streets and
public places, and subsequently, to the music
of the '• Riego" and other popular hymns,
marched to the Plaza, de la Constitution. .The
Ex-Alealde, Don Antonio Soler, appeared in
the balcony of the Town Hall and announced
that the Ayuntamiento had resigned their
powers into the hands of the Republican
Junta, of which -he was tam President. The
Revolutionary Junta next issued a proclama
tion and declaration of principles.
The EmPrfffisi Eugenie's Journey...At the
Tomb of General Espinasse.
The Lombardia, an Italian journal, states
that on SundaY, the 3d of October, when the
Empress of the French was near Magenta, on
her way to Venice, she expressed a desire to
visit, the Item of battle, and especially the
monument which has been erected on the spot
_where General E.spinasse was killed. The
monument was illuminated; and after placing
upon it a banquet of flowers, her Majesty,
who was profoundly affected, remained some
time in religious contemplation. She then
stooped down, plucked a small tuft of gras,
and turning to her suite, exclaimed, 'Tins
tomb will be the dearest and most precious
recollection of my journey." •

`, --There IS at tie - Chestnut Street' Theatre
now &lunatic ;entertainment vrhicirwe can
heartily recommend to our readers, as well
worthy, of their attention. Mies Keene has
produced Itoncidault'a !lay Hunted Down; or
the two Lieee of Mail( ,h, and We'do not ex
aggerate when We say r!'• t the performance is
one of the very best.eVeir , given in - this citY.
The occasions are rare when me can speak in
stich'warm ternis of an entertainment of this
cdescription, and now titarpmise is demanded
by every consideration of_jhstice, We are 'glad-
Talaccord it in most generous measure.
The drama, in the first plach, is clean
and pure. Albeit the theme is; old‘.
' the plot is simple, ingenious 'and' 'interesting
::from the beginning to the 'end. ` The play is ,
filleduith strong situations / which are made'
more forcible by the exquisite pathos, of.thell
text. •Itis a domestic tragedy which as for
its motive the" suffering of a woman who has
contracted a happy .second marriage, be.
'loving that her first husband, who is a scoun
drel, ia dead. He appears upon the scene,
and uses his secret to extort money from her,
while she is distracted by the Injury: done to
her second husband, by her love far him, for
her children, and by the sense 'of -duty that
compels - her to ruin him and her by telling
him all her misery'. Out of these natural ma
, terials, with a few carefully draWn characters,
Mr. Boucle:milt has constructed . a powerful
and affecting play. It has not apartiele.of the
artificial anguish of East Lynne. The spectator
is not, conscious that his emotions are being
played upon. There is no violent assault upon
the feelings, no premeditated attack Upon the ,
par-bags. The play is intense almost to
painfulness, and yet the trick of the dramatist
is hidden beneath the cunning imitation of na
ture. The speetator feels that all this pain and
suffering might well lie--must inevitably be, if
such a piteon4 thing should befal a sensitive,
loving woman. There is no taint of Formosan
impurity bere. This is a drama of the author's
better days ; it is an inspiration of his modest
muse. It is a etanding refutation of hie asser
tion that a degradedpoptdar appetite demands
ba.wciry and nastine.,s.
The drama gained strength in the hands of
Miss Keene and het colleagues. Miss Keene
herself acted with indescribable grace. Her,
personation was one of the most powerful
that we have ever seen in sentOnental drama.
The part is worthy of the best efforts of an
artist. It 'reenirea for its .; just interpretation
_the possession of .deep sensibility, quick intel
ligence and power of 'passionate expression.
Miss Keene more than tilled the measure of
these requirements. She played with far more
ability than she has displayed in any perform--
antegiVen in, her theatre during the present
season, with even more than we had credited
her. with, great as we knew her - power to be.
Mr t Mordaunt prepared a greater surprise.
Commonly he has such tricks of gagging and
burlesquing, that he throws away his best
- opportunities to win reputation: ' Hls‘persona
tion of "John Leigh" was defiled' by none of
these things. He played with simplicity and
gentleness, without violence or rant, even
where the teatseemed to provoke such sins,
and so he gave a personation that is worthy
of all the praise that we 'can bestow upon it.
If he but knew how much better is this admi
rable fidelity to the character he has to inter
pret,than the nonsens e and vulgarity:in which
he frequiently indulges, : w
he ould win higher
fame' and do better justice to his
.pbivers.
Mr: Otis played "Sir Arthur" with exceeding
cleverness and taste.. In the peculiar line of
parts to which he has been confined since his
appearance in this theatre he is. unsurpassed.
He is animated without - going to excess ;^
he has - refinement withriut silliness;
he is amusing without ventur
ing upon • buffoonery. Mr. . McManus
played the villain, and L in our opinion,played
well. At the best the character is an ungrate-
Yul but Mr. McManus gave it sulhcient
hideousnesS without making it disgusting.
Miss-Mary Carr and Miss May Howard also
deserve praise for their: ,excellent • perform
ances. Indeed we cannot with jusdce find
any fault with the manner In which this
drama is produCed. • It is so ~nften the un
pleasant duty of a truthful critic to condemn
and suggest improvement, that one longs for
an opportunity to .indulge in an unqualified
eulogy. Here is such an opportunity ;we
have embracedit ; and that the merit of the
artists may receive a complete reward, we
heartily recommend the performance to the,
public. The house was well filled, last night
despite the counter attractions and the un
pleasant weather. It ought to be 'crowded
xiuring every night of this play. '
