ruen OA4Os. leierremeneenee of the rhilaeele, Boeing Bulletin.) Pants, Tuesday, Feb. N 1871).—The new, Ministers may very fairlY lay chine to dealing out even-handed justice to all ranks of of- Senders. After having " struck high" and dis missed Baron Hausanaann and administered a, lesson to a good many other Prefects as well, they havejutituow finished off M. Rochefort, and also comedown upon a second imperial piotige of high standing. The "little •bill" at " six months" due bY' the deputy of the first electoral division of Paris to the Correctional Police Oourt was duly presented for payment yesterday evening, and this morning, Ihaye no doubt, Rochefort is enjoying a lodging at the expense of the country in the quiet precincts of Sainte-Pelagie. In less figurative language, the editor of the • Marseillaise has been safely and quietly locked up to undergo the sen tence pronounced against him. A request had been made, to -him, in, the usual polite manner practiced towards offenders of the press, inviting him to say • when it would be most " convenient" -to him to constitute himself a voluntary prisoner. But be paid no attention to this re quisition, and insisted upon being "arrested "ItrY force, " declaring, however, at the same time, that he did not intend to offer any re zistanoe, but would yield as soon as ever he felt the band of the sergent do ville upon his coat-collar. He had not to wait long. It was expected that he would have been arrested yesterday afternoon, between five and six o'clock, when the Clamber broke up, and every one who could gain admittance into the Balk des pas perdus, as the entrance ball or lobby of the Corps Legislatif is called, was there to witness the incident. The whole "of the afternoon's sitting bad been taken up with a.• discussion on the subject ,of the. ' arrest, brought on ,by an in- Jerpellatioirt addressed to the Minister of ' Justice, M. 011ivier, by old Cremieux, the ad vacate. Both the latter and M. Gambetta pleaded the cause of their colleague, in a legal and political point of view, with great. 'ability; the one striving to show that Rochefort could not be "le gally" arrested as a deputy before the end of the session ; the other, that he ought not to •be so arrested, as a matter of policy. The 'Minister of Justice disposed of both objections iery, cleverly, by showing that the liberty to Prosecute, once accorded by the Chamber, re duced a deputy to the position of a" private citizen, and that, as such, Rochefort was plainly amenable to the common law of the land,—not for the expression of any political or other opinions, however violent, but simply for a fact—the fact, namely, of exciting citizens to take up arms against the established government. With great force and eloquence M. 011ivier diselaimed all personal or political feeling in the matter, and insisted, with an earnestness that carried conviction, that his only object was to vindicate the majesty of the laws. The House fully supported him, and voted the order of the day by a ma jority of 191 to 45. Rochefort sat silent in his place during the discussion, and as the Min ister had plainly announced 'that he would be arrested, he expected to be so, as I have said, on leaving the Chamber, and each friends as could get near gathered round him to make a " demonstration." They looked oione, however, as though they were greatly disappointed when neither inside the building nor outside did any one attempt to interfere :with them, and Rothefort got into a cab and drove hornet° the Rue de Provence. Butthe police liad a plan of their own for laying hold of him quietly and without disturbance. They knew he was to attend a meeting in a very distant part of the town the same evening, and so there they waited for him. 'When be stepped out of the carriage which conveyed him to the spot, a commis vary politely took him by the arm and pre sented the warrant of arrest, signed by the 'court. , He made no resistance, and, was speed ily lodged at Sainte-Pelagie. A few gamins as --sembled in -tiffs electoral division and_paraded the streets, vociferating " Vice Rochefort!" But they were speedily dispersed,and the city remained perfectly tranquil. M. 011ivier's 811 C cess has,so far,been complete,and never before perhaps did a Minister ride rough-shod over a demagogue . with more im,funity. The only advantage on Rochefort's 9lde, as I have often said before, is that be. is perhaps more formid able in prison than out of it. It happens very fortunately that, just at the same moment when Rochefort has been dealt with as above, the new government has had at once the opportunity and the energy to make another example of a very different kind. M. Le Verner, the celebrated astronomer and • man of science, was made a Senator and nominated Director of the Observatory of Paris by the Emperor himself, in 1854, as a recompense for having at once rallied to the coup d'ilat and the government of the President. He was almost the only member of the Institute or any of the learned bodies who did so, and he has'been regarded as a special imperial protégé over since. He has, in consequence, carried things with a high hand at the Observatory, and almost played the part there of Baron Haussmann at the Hotel de Ville. At lougth his arbitrary proceedings raised such universal indig nation that the whole body of astronomers and men of science attached to that important institution resigned en masse, and plainly, notified to the 'Government that it must either do without them or without Id. Le Verrier. Now, no one could dismiss the latter but the Emperor who had appointed „bbni and it was ratter a delicate point to ask Napoleon to send ter be right-about another of his own special Merle, to soon after'llarou Hausmann. But,to his great credit,M. Segris, the new Minister of 'Public instruction, did not hesitate one' moment. Drawing up a de cree cs, diemissal, with the approbation of all eolieaguee, 'he presented it et once to the Emperor for his signature. There • was /no use haggling about it, as Napolebn very well knew. A refusal to sign would' have been followed by the instant resignation 'of 'the entire Cabinet, • and he would baye foulid it very difficult at 'this moment to fouin a new one. There was nothing for it but to knock under once bore, and " sign " out Le Varier as he Wad " signed " out HausSinann. And so sigh he did, and the Obseryatory is phtdd under the management of a cominiss On • Tin Imperor hai just gone to the preserves 'at Versktilles,with his sort Wad other juvenile !sportsmen, to give them a ' lesson in sl'.oeting. He finds that there is •• very 1i. 1 *.!.e else left for him to do ! . —When the Patina murderer was first, brought to Paris he was taken to the Conci orgerie, but after his trial lie was sent to the prison of La Roquette. When he iltst learned • of the A uteuil tragedy and the impriscaimeo Prince Pierre Bonaparte in the Couciergerie, raid:be " What a pity I have been trans ferred here • we should have been such awns!'

NEW 14111.110[CATIONOL Across America and Asia: By Raphael, ,Thinteditiora Ikpoldt 'Hoit,, New TOrk., 1870...LN0w eihauating its'third thousand, Prof. Pumpelly's narrative is begin- , ning to"justify the intelligence of the reading public, as well as its own merit. Three thou sand copies in less than two, months of a dull season Is a rapid issue for a book that is neither a sensation novel nor an impertinent bit of personality. In fact, it would be difficult to point to any author since Marco Polo (except ing perhaps Humboldt) who has ,shown him self so full of curiosity, so stirring and brave, so adequately posted in the knowledge proper to his age; and so 'simply graphic an narrative. The Abbe Hue, indeed, has given us a romantic account of travels in a ,part of the region covered by this tale of Prof. Pumpelly's. But the Abli's volumes, brilliant as they are, carry a fatal -sfiggestion of having passed „under the hand of the professed Paris litterateur ; something of the myth, something of the ficrie at the Chatelet theatre, clings to them, let us attempt as we may the mood credulous. Pumpelly is the . ,transparently truthful explorer, not very much concerned with the make-up of his book as a book, but extremely anxious to correct his analysis of Chinese and Japanese coals, and his sta tistics of the gold deposits near Lake Baikal. We must not, however, give the impression that the Professor comes forward with his science to an unpalatable extent. Just enough is borrowed from his professional results— rpitably from the Smithsonian Institute pub lication of " Geological Researches in China, Mongolia and Japan"—to give a welcome pre cision to this confessedly popular narrative. The itinerary, crossing first to Arizona, thence circling over the globe, through Oceanica, Japan, China, Central Asia, Siberia and Russia, is so very long as to be scarcely manageable in the limits of , a read able volume. And the only literary fault we find with Prof. Pumpelly is his slight want of foresight—writing his chapters with breadth and swing up to a certain point, when the bigness of his work seems to surprise him, and, with a sudden hitch, he begins to write to another scale, like an artist who finishes his portrait with little legs to get it in the canvas. This very defect, however, is half a beauty, since the dry epigrammatic point character istic of the Professor comes out sparkling as the necessity for condensation presses upon him. His intellectual humility is another of his pleasant qualities, leading him to yield the chapter to another writer whenever he believes' that another has more ability in the spe9ialty than himself. Instances ,are Rev.? Mr. M.uirheld's insertion on the religious hearing of the Chinese Rebellion, and Mr. John La Farge's essay on Japanese Art. The late ter, having been, much alluded to and cited from, has attained a separate celebrity; it is certainly picturesque, appreciative and gene rally true, with the truth, however, as empha sized by a special pleader. It is well for the art-critic to vindicate the real rightness of an unusual chromatic system and an unaccus tomed perspective ; but Mr. La Farge's re marks-are less judiciary than apologetic, and the reader is amused into forgetfulness of the patent fact that Japanese art has no expression for any but coarse or comical emotions in the human face, no apparent ideal, no play of light and shade, and no composition, unless we ac cept Mr. La Farge's' proposition that a decora tive flower on one side of a box-lid "intellect ually balances" the unadorned space remain ing. Its refinement of color, however, needs no assertion, and its powerful graphic ability may surprise some un accustomed eyes in the valuable fae-simile introduced. Prof. Pumpelly's generosity and liberality is evinced not only in letting special experts take his chapters out of his mouth Oc casionally ; it spreads a glow of human warmth and unobtrusive tenderness through the whole route. In his cosmopolitanism, his urbanity, his absence of national prejudice, his even and just, regard of the whole human brotherhood as its tribal divisions unroll before him, he dis plays a kind of scientific method in the very workings of the heart. No mind fitter to be put in contact with . all this vast gamut of intel ligence could easily be found. The savage ex perience of Arizona does not degrade him, and his Oriental investigations,under circumstances of privilege, amengSt immemorial usages, do not enervate him. In a moral state of the keenest--philanthropy, for example, he comes in contact with the foreign element in China; and the British opium trade, in our recollec tion, has met no thrust as calm, deadly and definitive as this : This vice is one of the fruits of intercourse with European civilisation. Little more than half a century ago this drug was used only as a medicine ; at present the importation amounts to between 5,000 and 0,000 tons yearly, which does not represent, 'however, the amount con sumed, since• Within recent years a rapidly growing area in China is devoted to its pro duction. The profit netted by the 'East India Company from the zpium trade, after deduct lug all expenses, it is estimated to have yeached an aggregate of £07,851,853 sterling. Who can estimate the consequences of the system, adapted by a Christian Government, to introduce this poison? As a ' vie-. 'alien Of the laws of .nature this deliberate paralyzing of a part of the great body of mankind must surely re-act. upon the rest of the world. China is best adapted by the formation of its surface, by its climate and resources, and by the industry of its teeming population, numbering one-third of the human race—by all these it is adapted to become, trot only one of the most important exporting countries, but also one of the largest consmv lug markets for the products of other nations. By as much as we diminish the Muscular power and energy of this populatitill, by just ab much do we injure our interests, by diminish ing their power of production and their ability to become purchasers. We are not going to allow ourselves, at this latish day, the luxtul of quoting. Abundant extracts . have heretofore adorned our columns, and our znission to-day is simply to keep 'so good a work from sinking back from sight be hind the, invoices of the spring trade—a work.' which in its neatly-trimmed compass is better than complete, and which is also a monument of liberal publishing in its maps, fae-similes' photolithographs, landscapes, margins and `typograpliy.lt may be obtained of MesSrs.• Lippincott & Co.

In the first place, Mr. Greeley, s confining his attention to the agricultural division of the work's scheme, gives Berne first truths in fam ine, an essay on soil, and his 'own notions on farming in the West. ?lowing; irrigation, fertilizers, field and orchard crops, stock and dairy ;—homestead architecture, the workshop, farm and household economy, the cuisine, and hygeine, are each liberally allowed a space of something near a hundred pages. A more ideal compilation, for the last hundred, treats of the romance of modern science, steam and the telegraph, the lucifer, statistics of human life, languages, the universe and celestial globe, climate, physical geography, and natural his tory, with even a concession to the idleness of a long rustic winter evening in the way of a list of social amusements; and would detach well for a separate and probably poPular book.

Our Manchester correspondent writes. however, that after one of the Cabinet meet ings last week Mr. Bright complained of a sense of weariness ,and lassitude, such as usually results from over-mental exertion ; but nothing was thought of it further than that. On. Sunday, however, the condition of the right . honorable gentleman was such that his medical advisers .desired him to at once quit London and go home. Accordingly the right honora ble'geritleman, Laving obtained from his col leagues in office a few weeks' leave of absence, so to speak, was to leave London yesterday (Tuesday) for One Ash, Rochdale. IRELAND Dtsturbed Condition of the West. The Castlebar (Mayo) correspondent of the Dublin Freeman's Jaurrud, writing on Satur day; February titb, says : , Considerable alarm has been caused here in consequence of rumors, almoSt hourly circu lated, regarding the posting of a notice threaten ing landlords and agents who threaten to ;eject or to raise the rents. It appears that a few -days ago a notice was posted on Mr. Fitzger ald's house, of Turlough, calling on the tenants not to pay more rent than the government ' valeation of the lands. On the day: ap-' pointed for the collection of the rents the tenants, on seeing the notice, I 'am told, returned home without discharging their obligations. More excitement was created this (Saturday) morning by • a report that a large body of Men marched into Swin ford town in martial order to demand of a _Magistrate an admittanee to bail of some per son whose examination was held on Friday in that town, when the magistrate refused ball. A large Party of police left Castlebar : on Frid4y night, on cars, and returned on Saturday morning with one prisoner. lam informed the constabulary and military ate •on 'ditty every iilgbt. The cavalry have to keep their lorses. saddled, ready to turn out at any notice. From about eight to tenr . o'clock on Friday night -several parts of the country about Cas -tlebar were brilliantly illuminated, as •if thousands of torchlights were In motion - through the mountains, and more particularly in that part of the country between Balla and Foxford. The object of stroll a strange cir cumstance is, of coarse, a complete mystery to every person. , • • • - Philadelphia !tank Statement. .
