Victor Hugo astatie Pletothettrun.
The Roppel publishes an .article of Victor
Hugo on the Plibiscitunt orwhich the follow
ing are concluding paragraphs:
How strange a Piebisciturn ! It is coup d'itat
out up into pieces of paper. After the grape
shot comes the scrutiny. To the rifled cannon
succeeds the urn. People vote that you don't
exist.' And the people vote. And the master
counts the votes. He has as many as he
wishes, and'he puts the people in his pocket.
But he forgets that what he thinks he has
seized is unseizable. A nation does not
abdicate. Why? Because it renews itself.
The vote must always be recommenced.
No matter. , The vote has been taketr:and
tete toaster accepts that for a consent: Snch
practices make the English laugh. Submit to
the coup d'état—submit to the Piebiscituni.
How can a nation support such humiliations?
England at the present moment has the good
fortune to laugh a little at France. Then
laugh at the ocean: - X - er.t.e.s la.shed it.
The Empire, after nineteen
,years of prac
tice, thinks itself tempting. It oilers us its
progress. It offers us the COUP <Pettit arranged
in a democratic form, the night of December
in the dress of parliamentary inviolability, the
free tribune dove-tailed to Cayenne,. Mazes
modified into a house of liberty, and the vio
lation of every right adapted to,liberulgoyern
ment.
Very well, no! We are ungkeful. We,
citizens of the assassinated 7.tepiiblie; we,
thinking lovers ot justice, we watch, with the
intention of making use of it, toe weakening
of authority suitable to the old age of treason.
We are waiting, and in the meantime, before
that mechanism called Piebiscituni, we shrug
our shoulders. • . • - -
To Europe without disarmament, to France
without influence, to Russia without restraint,
to Prussia without balance, to Spain without
anchor, to Greece without Crete, to Italy ,
without Rome, .to Roine witheut Romans,
to democracy without people, we say " No !"
To liberty in the grasp of despotism, to
prosperity the fruit of a catastrophe, to justice
in the name of an accused, to the magistrature
marked with the letters L. N. 8., to 'B9 vise
by the Empire, to the 14th of July completed
by the 2d of December, to loyalty sworn by a
false oath, to . progress decreed by retrogres
sion, to solidity promised hy ruin, to light con
fined by darkness,to the face behind the mask,
to the spectre behind the smile, we say "No!"
Moreover, if the author of the coup d'etat
real y desires to ask the people a question, we
acknowledge only the right of putting the fol
lowing : Ought Ito leave the Tuileries for
Vincennes, and place myself in the hands of
justice ?--Napoleon."
LADY FRANKLIN.
A Sorrowful Llfe.
A San Francisco correspondent, noting the
arrival of Lady Franklin, writes: "By the
la. , t Panama boat there arrived a lady whose
life is the centre of, a century's tragedy--a lady
whose constancy and devotion will be the
theme of future homes, and far eclipse the
fame of the fabled Penelope. A cruel
rumor,started-sorma months - ago - by — a ' city
fiaper that a waif had drifted -ashore near
Ban Diego, containing some_,memento of the
Arctic heroes, reached her at Rio Janeiro,
and she hastens, to, San, Francisco; distance,
fatigue; age,, all forgotte, in the Wild hope
that the sea may have revealed one of its sor
rowful secrets. Poor lady! Eighty years old;
twenty years desolate ; still- clinging with a,
heartbick longing to the idea that earth or
ocean will yet tell the mystery of the past."

Dfmocrut gives an account of a terrible affair
of vt bieli wre,.hAve„nlready....ba4 an a,Ceottut. by .
telegraph. ,
Deputy Sheriffs Carrigan and Story were, it
seems, ordered' to ' arrest a notorious mur
derer, Albert H. Hat's'.
On Monday morning early, Story and Car
rigan presented themselves at trews' rresi
dence, and caught him unarmed in the corral
adjoining his "house. They - told hint - their
business, and at the same time drew their
.pistols upon him_ and _orderect_biin to. throw
up his hands. Be objected to thesituation, but
finally complied. Story returned his pistol to
his pocket, got from Carrigan the hattdcuff,s,
and approached Haws with the inteution of
handcuffing him, while Carrigati.still kept his
pistol drawn on .the murderer. Haws was a
wiry, quick desperado, and, evidently com
prehending that his last effort for freedom
was then or never,. he dashed away the hand
' cuffs, and swore that he would not wear them.
Story. ordered Carrigan to shootant_l_,. at the
same instant, "Haws sprang; fa' Carrigan,
wrenched the revolver from him and struck at
his bead. Story flew at Haws, drew his pis
tol, got it to Haws's side. hut the lat.:..:' bent
his back, and the ball passed by without
touching him. Haws, in an instant, grappled
with Story, turned his pistol upon his, left
shoulder and tired.
.Story reeled to the fence. Haws fired at
Carrigan - and missed hilti;,Storylired a.aecond_
time.
Haws returned to him and shot him in the
breast, finishing , him. As Carrigan was risitig
Haws fired at him a second time, and missed
him. Carrigan fled for assistance, - bat the house where this. - occurred being outside-the
settlement, Haws had time to saddle hiS horse;
get his pistols, take the jfiStols of the two depu- -
es,Lborrow_a_gun•,—"with-which-to-shoot rab---
bits," and get a fair start of half a mile ahead
of his pursuers.'
Several Mormons accompanied Carrigan in
pursuit, and from the settlement of Tooele
another company started after him. The news'
,(-ached here-on Monday - evening, - and - the
telegraph was freely used to start out men after
Haws in every direction. A company left here
under the leadership of the great Porter Rock : .
well. The character of the min and his - evi , '
dentresolution not to be taken alive caused a
deep interest-iii the pursuit._
- He was chased for some Wiles, and would
liaVe been overtaken, but, coming to .a preci
pice, he got off his horse, rolled himself down'
to the bottom and go!. to the canon. As.
the citizens got np to his Whereabout to search'
for him, he' was ready for work before. they
- _ ,- ...avr:him;- - =Th - e - crack= - cif-hiS - piAter Waglibard;
and one of the - Mormons was down. The ball
passed through the Victim's breast, from the
__right to_the.left_side.:__Another-Moririon-got

An evidence of the desperate character of
she man,-and his resolution to kill all he
4 mild,- is-demonstrated at - his - death: - I3Ce - had
tour pistols and agun with him, and he . told
;he man at whose home he had stopped
during the night, that he - never would be
taken alive. This, of Course, was to be ex
"meted,. butthe arraneement-ef-two of his pis-
Colsis suggestive of a terrible character.
Be had two revolvers attached to his belt,
dangling in front of him.- They were capped
and cocked, and to the trigger of each there
was attached a . small loose string that was
__fastened-to-the sides of the belt. When those
who shot him got to his body, one young man
stooped down to take oft one of the pistols,
and the moment he pulled it, off it went, and
the ball passed through his "hand and wrist.
Another man standing by received the same
hall in his sido, and-is not likely - to - recover.
Haws evidently calardatfftlfat-h-e-ifni-g-lit-be
surrounded and grappled with. To him, his
revolvers were ready cocked for use, and to
those who grabbed them were many_chances
of just the results I have named.

The Expelled Italian Flnt ► neter•- His
Itevenne;
[From the London Thnoe, May 4.]
The liberal papers of Paris comment upon
the expulsion from France, by order of the
Minister of the Interior, of - M. - Certinschi, an
Italian, who had resided in that capital for
twenty years. M. Cernuschi was engaged
with Mazzini in the defence of- Rome against
the French army, and, after the capture of
that city, he was for some time _a prisoner in
the Castle of tit. Angelo. Upon his release he
established' himself at Paris, where, by
conimercial__,pursuits he amassed con
siderable :wealth. Having, retained . his
democratic opinions, he gave a sum of 100,900 f.
towards the anti-plebiscitary fund, and thi§ act
the opposition' press regards ay the motive for'
the order of expulsion, but the Minister him
self assigns as the cause that M. Cernuschi,
foreigner, had engaged himself in political in
trigues against the safety of the Empire. The
expelled gentleman, on his arrival in Switzer
land, revenged himself by forwarding another
donation of one hundred thousand francs to
the democratic committee " in ',Paris, to aid,
them .in their contest"withthe go_vortgaMf•

IHE FRENCH ASSASSINATION PLOT
TUESDAY, MAY 17, 1870.
Bon. Thomas Irwin departed this life, at
-his residence. in Allegheny, ow last Saturday
afternoon. His death, although not sudden
or - nnex pectiTd — , east a gloom of Baness over
these communities, as the deceased was 1/111-versally---bekrved,
-versally---bekrved, respected and admired.
Judge Irwin was born in Philadelphia, on the
.faticlay. of February, 1784. His father,- Col.
_Matthew Irwin, was a distinguished Rohner
in the revolutionary war, and was one of a
Jew Philadelphia patriots of that '.try
ing period who , brought relief
and comfort to the famishing army
at Valley Forge, and prevented their utter de.
moralization by affording opportune pecu
niary aid, be alone subscribing-£.5,000_t0 the
cause. The mother of the deceased was a
-daughter of- Benjamin -Mifflin, whose grand
father,John Mifilin,eame with,William Penn
to this country, settling in _NewCastle, Dela,.
ware, in 1682, The Mithins were known. as
the " lighting Quakers," from the active part
they took in the 'revolutionary war, and one
of them rose to the distinction of Brigadier-
General in the Continental army and was
elected aS the first Governor of this Common
wealth under the Constithtion of 1790.
Judge Irwin received a fair education •in
Franklin_Cellege,atLancaster,_quitting_at the
age of nineteen to help support his/mother,
who, with six small children, was left
.. widow in straitened circumstances,
the father having involved himself before
death .by .a series of heavy endorsements.
In 1804 he became editor of the Phil
adelphia Repository, a weekly paper. In
1808 he commenced the practice of law, and,
in search of a more encouraging field, he
left...for_ _Louisiana.. He -was--subsequently
appointed by President Madison to a
position in tLe Indian Department established
at Natchitoches, where he soon obtained the
position of Judge Advocate of the parish.
11l health rendered his return to Pennsylvania
advisable, and in 1811 he came to Uniontown,
Fayette county, where he resumed the prac
tice - of law. He was married in 1812. to
-Miss—Walker, a lady'of what place -and
one of great worth, beauty and accom
plishments. The marriage was an un
usually happy one, and the venerable
lady, the bride of nearly sixty years ago, sur
vives her husband, and we feel sure is as
charming and , lovabie in ker declining years
=life as she was when led to the altar by the
youthful husband in the early part of the cen
tury.. In 1824 Judge Irwin was elected to a
seat in the State Legislature, and was returned
in 1826. Be took an active and leading part

sionS during hismembership, and retired with
a high reputation and the esteem and confi
dence of his constituents.
• In 1828 he was elected to Congress, and took
his seat in December, 1829. On the resigna
tion of Judge Wilkins to accept a seat in the -
- United States Senate, President Jackson ap
pointed the deceased to succeed him as Dis

Western- District of Pennsylvania. He dis
charged the duties of that hi h office - with

The New York Herald says :
This well-known "soldier and citizen of New
York died at his residence, in Stuyvesant
Square, of Bright's disease of the kidneys.
General Farnum was born in New Jersey, in.
1824; but, his parents removing to Pottsville,
Pa., while he was a child, be spent the early
years of his life in that town. At the outbreak
of the war_ with Mexico he joined the First.
Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers, of
w Kergeant-major,servingwith—
it and gaining distinctiohirreturn of
peace he resumed his civil pursuits; but love
of adventure took him from these to
join Walker's filibustering expedition
to Nicaragua. On the breaking out
of the rebellion deceased took the
tie% as major of one of the regiments in the
Excelsior brigade. He served ellantly on
many battle-fields in Virginia, and was pro
moted successively to lietrtenant-colonel,
colonel and brigadier -general. At Spotsyl-
Tapia be was severely wounded in bath legs,
and being thereby incapacitated for further ac
tive field service, was transferred to the Vete
ran Reserve Corps, in which he held a com
mand till the close of the war, when he was
honorably mustered out. Subsequentli r ho
held a position in the Custom Heztse in this
city, and which he retired from ome time
ago. General Farnum was a galh.nt,patriotie
gentleman, warm and open-hearted, the pos
sessor of a large number of friends who es
t eemed him highly, and ty whom his death
wili he deeply deplored.' ^
Details of the Aturder - by the - Brigands.
A: letter from Athens the Augsburg
Guzette gives a somewhat circumstantial ac
count of the tragedy. The,writer, after giving
reasons which, -in-his - opinion, justified that
course, says that the Greek Government gave
order that the band should be surrounded,
not with'a view of inking offensive measures
against it, but to compel it to accept the ran
som andthe exile, beyond which concessions
M. Zaimis and his colleagues, in their intense
regard foi the constitution. could not go, and .
proceeds to describe the ccinliequences of that'
decision.
When the brigands found that the troops
,were approaching them on all sides they de-`
terreined, on Thursday, the 21st of April, at 4
in the afternoon, to escape across the Asopus
.to the sea_coast,in-the-mtention -of- crossing
over into Enham. They dragged their pri
soners, wet through and exhausted by fatigue
and sickness; to the stream swollen by the re
cent heavy rains, and endeavored to compel
them to swim across. Count Boyl, who was
sub:rin from lung disease, refused. He was
laid hold of, and would have been carried
across, rebbers perceived the gunboat
A phroessa off the coast, and a number of sol
diers suddenly appeared on the other side of
the strewn. They immediately cut him down
with their yatagans and fled, taking with them
the rest of the prisoners. The troops plunged
into the stream in a terrible rage ; many of
them were carried away by it, but the rest
climbing the shore;hotly pursued the brigands.
They had not gone far before they came upon
the bleedy and still quivering corpses of Arlr,
Vyner and Mr. Herbert, killed by the knives
of the brigands. The shots fired drew other
detachments of soldiers to the chase, and be
fore nightfall nine of the brigands were killed.
One,
severely wounded, was taken prisoner,
and the interpreter had escaped. Mr. Lloyd,.
bowever,, still alive, was in the hands of the
brigands, .who, nine in • number,'
with three 'wounded, • had taken refuge
in, the, thicket. A . later telegram from
Theheti,_the...._c &respondent: says,-announees- 1
that - :the - mutilated -corpse of Mr. Lloyd-had

Austria Threatens to Withdraw Her Eat
bassatipre trout ibireeee. -
The corresponllent of the Ectstern Budget; at
Vienna. w.iltiug on the 30th ult., says:-
According , to the accounts which have ar
.rived--here from-Athens, the representatives
of the Powers have held a conference to dis
cuss a proposal .made the - French -Eni
bassador for addressing an identical note to
the Greek Government, protesting against
the insecurity of life and property in the
country. •The Russian representative alone
objected to this proposal, and sug
gested that- a , verbal representation
on the subject ought to pre
cede a written protest. The anxiety caused
in Greek ofticial_citcles_by_the...ma.essicre r and
its probable _consequences, is shown by the
fact that immediately after learning the news
the Greek Embassador at Vienna went to
Count Beust and asked him what-course the
Austrian Government proposed to take in the
matter, adding that he feared that an occupa.
don ofGreece by the Powers might be the
result. Count Beust refrained-from making
any decisive declaration on the subject, but •
said that_ the_Bowers_--would probably—with
draw their Etnbassadors until a state of things
more compatible with, international law
should be established. Since then the Gov
ernment here has formally- expressed its in
tention of supporting in the most energetic
marittr any steps that may be taken by Eng
land and Italy in order to obtain satisfaction
for the murder of their respective subjects,
and_to-pruvide agai ost-the-oce urrenee-ofsuch
acts in future. The Austrian Embassador -at
Athens, Herr von Haivaerle, has applied for
leave of absence, but Count Beust has refused
his application on the ground that his presence
at Athens is indispensable at this crisis to en
able Austtiwto take her due share in any ne
gotiations which the Powers might enter into
with the Greek Government.
GEN. GEORGE H. THOMAS.
His Steadfast JA4alt y .-=-Letter ream One
aP Hl9 tliaff•
.Editors Alta Cabfornta.- 2 -The letter 'of Fitz
hugh Lee to the Richmond Dispatch, which
appears in your columns to-day, is but a repe
tition of the oft-repeated slander upon Gen.
Thomas that was a favorite.article_during_the
war. Affer the close of the war, and South
ern papers beatme accessible to the people of
the whole country, these slanders ceased, as
Gen. Thomas could too easily refute them:
but now that the great man is dead it IS
saftrto - renew - theio.
'
It is known to all who knew Gen. Thomas,
that one of his great characteristics was truth
fulness, entire tinthfulness, without reserva
tion, and it, is for the people of the 'United
States to judge betweeta_what he said on -tlais
subject while living, and what the enemies of
our country say, now that he'is dead.
As a confidential staff officer, one of his
Aids-de-Camp, I had the privilege of having
pony conversations with Oen. Thomas Ivey,
matters 'relating to the - rebelllon.' TheT more
important of these conversations I made notes
of at the time, with his knowledge and con
sent. Among them is one 'on the subjectof
Fitzhugh Lee's letter, which I here copy
from my - note-books
" A slander upon the General was often re
peated in the Southern papers during and im
mediately subsequent to the rebellion. It
was given upon the authority of prominent
rebel officers, and not denied by them; it was
1 to the effect that he was disappointed in not
getting - a high command in t e rebel army he
_had sought_tor,hence. hi R voritsallo_join-in-the -
rebellion. L - In 'a conversation with Win on this
subject, the General said this was an entire
fabrication, not having,,an atom of founda
tion ; not a line ever passed, between him and
the rebel authorities; they had no genuine
letters of his, nor was a word spoken by
him to any one that could even lead
to such an inference. He defied any
one to produce any testimony, written or
I oral, to sustain such an allegation; he never
tiutertamed such au idea, for his duty was
clear to him from the beginning. He said
these . lenders were caused by men
who line% they had done wrong, hut were
endeavori gto justify themselves by claiming
their action to be a virtue which all true men
would have followed, and by blackening the
character of those who' had done right. It was
evident that they were determined that no
Southern-born man who bad remained trite to
his country should bear a reputable character,
if continued and repeated abuse could effect a
stain upon it."
Auoth. r conversation, showing the opinion
of the - autb ors: of these:slanders, and his own
views at the breaking out efthe.rebellion, it is
well to give also...it is as. follows : "Ina dis
cussion upon the causes given for their action
by some of the officers who deserted the Gov
ernment at the rebellion, I ventured the as
sertion that perhaps some of them, at distant
posts, had acted ignorantly ; that I 'had been
informed that some of them had been imposed
upon by friends or relatives, and led to believe
there was to be a peaceable dissolution of the
'Won ; that there would be no actual General
GovernMent • for the , whole coun
try, and, by resigning their commis
sions, . they were only taking the
necessary steps toward .returning to the alle
giance of their respective States. He,replied,
that this . WaS but a poor excuse; he could not
helieve- that Officers Of the army were so ig
norant of their form of Government as to
suppose such proceeding could occur, and as
tbeyhad stvorn allegiance to the. Government
they were bound to adhere to it, and would
have done so if they had been so inclined. He
Said there — was no' excuse whatever in a
United States officer claiming the right of se
cession. and the only excuse any of them
could have had for their desertion - Of the
Government was what none althorn admitted
having engaged revointion against
a tyranny, because the tyranny did not
exist, and they well knew it. I then
asked him, supposing such a state 'of
atlairs had existed, that arrangements were
being made for a peaceful dissolution of the
Union by the Government, the North from
the South, and that it was in progress, What,
would you have done? Ho promptly replied:
"That is not a suppo, sittple case; the Government
cannot dissolve itself; it is the creature of the
people, and until tbe people had agreed by
their votes to dissolve it, and it 'was accom
plished in accordance ,4herewith, the Govern
ment to which he had Sworn allegiance re
mained, and - as long as it did exist - he should
have adhered to it." ' Let the: counfry judge
between him and them. .., ' •
