Prevost Paradol, the new French Minister, shot himself through the heart at one o'clock this morning, at his residence on New York avenue, between Ninth and Tenth streets. The Emperor Napoleon has been notified hy telegraph, and M. Berthemy, the late Minister, who has not yet sailed from New York, has been notified to return to Washington. The body of Mr. M. Paradol is being embalmed to be taken to France. No reason has, as yet, been assigned, but it is believed that he had been contemplating tle deed for some time, He had written letters to the members of his family foreshadowing such iutentions. p CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE "'FELO DE SE.” M. Paradol shot himself in his sleep- ing chamber, a front room of the sec- ond story, and the circumstances at- tending it show the act to have been premeditated. The inmates of the house at the time were his housekeeper and a French serving man. The wo- man heard the report of a pistol, and rushed into the room, where she found M. Paradol lying dead on the floor, bleeding from the left breast, the ball having entered immediately over the region of the heart. The weapon was a small single barrel breach loading Colt’s pistol. It was ascertained that he walked out yesterday and purchas- ed a pair of pistols of the style de- scribed. The other was found upon his bureau, with a cartridge beside it. The body was enhalmed and prepared for burial, but nothing further will*be done uutil the arrival of M. Berthemy the late French Minister, who is in New York and who has been sum- moned by telegraph. The body will no doubt be taken to France, M. Paradol had prepared himself for bed, but bad evidentiy remained up for some time in his chamber nred- itating suicide. He had nothing on but his night shirt and slippers, and apparently stood facing the fire place and near the centre of the room. The body was found lying on its back, with one leg drawn up and the left arm outstretched above the head. The French Minister took possession of his house on Friday last, and on Sunday he sent his son and daughter, who accompanied him to this country, to Newport, Rhode Island, intending to join them in a few days and spend the summer. He left a note saying, “I will kill myself. M. Berthemey come back and stay.” The members of the French Lega- tion were absent from Washington, with the exception of M. De Jardin, the Chancellor. That gentleman com- municated the fact to Secretary Fish, who after expressing his surprise and rofound regret, suggested a Coroner’s quest to which M. De Jardin assen- ted, and seven o'clock this evening was designated by the Coroner for that urpose. The entire community is shocked by the event. SENDING THE NEWS TO FRANCE. The Secretary of State to-day tele- graphed to Minister Washburne, in- structing him to inform the French Government of the sudden death of M. Prevost Paradol. The Pres.dent has ordered a guard of honor over the remains of the deceased Minister with such other attentions as may be re. quired. A BANQUET SPOILED. "The Severe? and invited guests anticipated much pleasure at the din- ner which was to have been given to. night by the Secretary, in compliment to the late Minister. Pr ®—— Fred Douglas, like Greeley, mani- and to occasion some little unpleasant- ness in the Radieai camp. At a Fif- teenth Amendment jubilee he made a speech, in which he even goes a step beyond Lowry, telling his colored brethren, whom he called by the fa- miliar title of “niggers,” that if they had the right to vote, it was to vote as they pleased, and not to be under any constraint to vote the radgeal ticket. This was not all. He said: 1 deal here in no hackneyed cant in thanking God for this great deliver- ance. I look upoo this great revolu~ as having been brought on by man rather than by an intervention of Pro- idence. Although for infidel effrontery these utterances fail to find a parallel in Ameriean oratory for heathenish in gratitude to Almighty God, there is nothing which should be peculiarly obnoxious to radical morality, for their leaders of the Sumner stamp have been practically guilty of both in language and action more unchristian-like, and by far less honest or hold, If the breach already beging to widen between the Radicals and their newly enfranchised fends, what will it be when the spoils oifice are held ap to tempt the cu- pidity of the colored man, and which t have been regarded as the peculiar have peace. The Sun and the Earth. The discoveries which have been made during the last few years by as- tronomers have scarcely ever been ex: ceeded in importance. Men like Fath er Secchi, Mr. Janssen, Mr. Lockyer, Mr. Huggins and Mr. Proctor have not merely supplemented the observa- tions of older astronomers, but have developed a series of new discoveries which either make certain what was heretofore hypothetical, or which re- verse the conclusions arrived at by many celebrated physicists ) these discoveries are due to the assid- uous use of the spectroscope, that won- derful instrument which seems destin- ed to teach us more about the solar system than we have ever before tho’ it possible for man to know. By its means the presence of the elements such as sodium, potassium, and stronitum have been discovered in different plan. ets, and we are compelled to adopt the conclusion that compounds of these metals; in common use on this earth, are also to be found in other worlds. Moreover, it has been distinctly ascer- tained of what materials the the “pho- hand has kept this wonderful universe, ns we now behold it, for countless mil- lions of years. While, thefefore, study. | fog with absorbing interest the im. pressive discoveries made by the | Younger astronomers of the iv it would be worse than useless to enter into speculations concerning events which can only be known to the Crea- tor of the world. —XN., Y. Times. sr otros Little Women. There is a charm about a handsome little woman, one of those petile gossips that always carries a man by storm, no matter whether he is old or young. The tall stately lady, looking a queen in her attire, and mein, impresses you with awé, as well as admiration. She is calm, speaks methodically, and saunters slowly and so quietly alon: that you scarcely notice her progress, If she has a lover, she never allows him to go beyond the bounds of a mere spenking acquaintance ; and, if mar- ried, and a mother, she fondles her child in public, at least, as if she was its aunt, come from a long way off to look at, but not to caress it, for fear its little wee fingers would disturb a eol- lar, or pluck one of those frigid flowers from her bouquet. All is different with little women. If they want a charitable subscription, you can give it out the moment they enter, for they never leave without it. They go at you with a rush, know you in & minute, and, so long as you are a tosphere,” or mass of luminous vapor | that'a phenomenon wasobserved which | startled all astromomers, and cannot | be explained upon any other hypothe- sis than that a star was burnt up. A | star in the northern crown was seen, den lustre, and subsequently to be | | plunged into comparative darkness. | Mr. Huggins examined the spectrum of the star, and was able to decide that hydrogen was present in a state of com- | bustion. The star, it seemed quite cer- | tain, had become surrounded with | | flumesgand in the course of twelve | days,it declined from the second to the eighth magnitude. Other stars have been observed to pass through the same terrible changes, Now it has been revealed to us by the spectroscope that the huge red prominences which rise from the pho- tosphere of the sun consist of masses of hydrogen gas in combustion, The aspect of these masses, as seen a few weeks ago, was described by Mr. J. Norman Lockyer, at a meeting of the Royal Society in London on May 19. This thoroughly trustworthy observer states in his paper that while watching a spot on the sun he was absolutely startled by the appearance of a prom- inence more than two minutes in height, and “showing a tremendous motion toward the eye.” “The appear- ances,” ‘says Mr. Lockyer, “were at at times extraordinary and new to me, The hydrogen shot out rapidly, scintil lating as it went.” Then great “cy- clonic” disturbances took place in the sun, and burning masses of hydrogen travelled to a great distance, *“‘with a velocity sometimes amounting ‘to. one hundred miles a second.” [It was not Mr. Lockyer's purpose in this paper to draw any but'the most pore con- clusions, but rather to give a scientific description of his observations. Every new and careful discovery which is made by means of spectrum analysis tends to utterly disperse the “popular” idea that the sun is a “fixed star” of unvarying brilliancy. It is quite evident that it must vary to a prodigious extent. Every one of the great disturbances which have taken place in previous years has felt its tra- ces upon the earth. It is ten and a half years ago—the ordinary cycle of the sunspot periods—since Mr. Hodg- son, at Oxford, and Mr. Carrington, at London, happened to be looking at the same moment at a cluster of sun- spots. In a moment two intensely bright patches of light covered the spots so that the astronomers thought the colored glasses of their telescopes had been broken. At the same instant, as was afterwards found, a great mag- netic and electric storm occurred over the whole world. The most intimate relations evident. ly exist between these solar convulsions and the condition of our world. “Di- rectly,” wrote Mr. Proctor last year, “one of these changes takes place, up- ward of ninety millions of miles away, the electric condition of our planet is changed in some mysterious way, of which our instruments and even the sky, bear record. These great changes take place in the course of every eleven years, and in 1859 it was fore: toid that the next wast disturbance of the sun would occur in 1870. What the phenomena portend we know not. That, as we said inv a former article, forces'are in existence all around us which are able to destroy the world in a moment, no rational man can doubt. Every living creature might perish in a conflagration, and yet the earth itself remain to be inhabited at some future—it may be a very distant—time, by a different elass of beings. It is believed by astronomers that several of the planets are at this moment the scene of preparations such as must have once gone on uvon this world ages before man inhabited it. Geolo- gists can tell us of numeroms signs that gentleman, they will rattle along, gos- and business, in a way that makes old hearts pinch and ache to be young agnin. They have no false dignity. It they want to run, they run; toss a baby as if he were a cat, sure, if he fell, to light on his feet without harm ; and away they dont care; for a little wo man never looks any other way. but handsome, dress herself as she will. Aud how they coax. They are veri- table lawyers to argue, and dispute your arguments, and as a last resort, put on a “pout” that is a clincher to anything belonging to the human fam- ily. A little woman never lives to old maidenhood. They can’t help but marry; for they have to do it to keep the peace, and settle the vexed question among their adorers.- Where a hand- some tall woman waits for one lover, the little petite runs away with the hearts of twenty. They never go out without exciting admiration, though they are not coquets, They are born to draw attention, and they know it, and how they sympathize, Let a ehild full on the walk aud the little woman rubs off the dirt, adjusts the clothing, chases away the tears, and rattles on with “poor child,” “nice boy,” “there now don’t ery,” is the way that makes the urchin dream every night for a month of fairies and angel beings. If sunbeams ; her little body is all over the house ; her sympathizing voice ever in your ear; and ome must get well out of a feeling that the act will oblige her. Little men are ridiculed by the female sex, and they do look odd, but little woman are a whirlwind, which blows the worst old bachelor into the sea of matrimony, in spite of any grip he may take on solemn vows to live a single and wretched life. If there are angels in Heaven, and the Good Book tells us so, they surely are the blith- some spirits of the merciful, dutiful, and winsome little woman, a au - Horse Flesh as Eood. In Paris, from the 9th July, 1866, when the first horse-flesh butchery was opened, to the 31st December in the ame year, 902 horses (a few mules and asses being included) were slaugh- tered, and their flesh averaging for each about 440 lbs. in weight, gives a total of about 180 tons; in 1867, the total consumption of this kind of meat rose to 430 tons; and in the following year it'amounted to rather more than 480 tons. In these two years and a half the totals were 5,475 horses, yeilding 1,095 tons of meat, without including the livers, tongues, hearts, ete., ‘which were also used as food. The price of horse-beef in Patis is less than balfithat of ox-beef. The returns for the rest of France are not com- plete, but judging from fia ace counts, and according to the number of towns in which this kind of meat is used, the committee believes that the total comsumtion amounted, in 1868, to 2,000 tons. empanadas A Heavy Cror.—The San Francis co Bulletin says: “A Maryville dis- atch states that a farmer at Knight's Fortis reaps this year a crop of sev- enty tons of wheat from twenty-one acres. This will be one hundred and ten bushels to the acre ; and if correct- ly reported is worthy of note. It 1s added that very heavy crops have been raised upon this band for sis or seven years successively. There are probably few farms where such an im- mense yield as this can be secured , aud perhaps fewer still, where the’ land ought to be worked at such a rate without a change of crops.” Tlis is rather strong, even for California. Bil «> > Canada has produced a kitten which is a hydra and almost a centi- pede in one. We are told that it had five heads and twenty legs, *‘all per- fect” The Hamilton (Ont.) Times once already the earth must have mel- ted with fervent heat. At any instant, Mr. Proctor has re- minded us, all electric apparatuses in the world might be destroyed by the physical changes in the sun. We only tell the rest of the story thus: “The whole of the montrosity was alive yes- terday, and showed no sign of dissolu- tion ; but to-day three of the heads and twelve of the legs became defunct. "The other two heads and eight of the know that He who fashioned all things * legs are yet alive.” Gs o- ¥ as You Choose. The following tragic story is from Pesth and bears the date of the 23d of Murch: Two brothers, of the principal families of Sy Tatabaz, lived in the bitterest hatred the one to the other. Phey even carried their hatred so far as to desire to change their names, so that the one should not bear the ah- horred name of the other. The daugh- ter of ove of the brothers, however, named Zousi, and the son of the other, Pista, vere deeply in love. They had in vain begged for the consent of their parents to their union. At length they resolved to die together, since there was no prospect of their marriage. They accordingly put on their best attire, went into a peighboring garden and there Pista shot Zousi through the heart, afterward putting a bullet into his own brain. Troubled by presenti ments of evil, the two fathers followed their children into the garden, and finding them both dead, they shot themselves in remorse, Shortly after- wards the mothers of the lovers hap pening to pass by, saw the four corpses, and attempted to kill themselves with knites, but were prevented by the neighbors, who had now hastened on to the scene, The Bufiulo Courier tells a story of Mrs. June Larkin, a native of Ireland, who at the age of one hundred and gix years, has come to this country, at the urgent request of her four sons, on- ly to find on the day of her arrival that since the day of her sailing three of these young men have met with a violent death, and the fourth, it is feared, has shared the same fate. One of the boys was killed in an ele- vater at Buffalo; another on a steam- boat; the third in a railroad collision, while the fourth, who left Buffalo for the West, has not been heard from. ditiiadi Ability as well as reputation. pays. The Hon, Jeremiah S. Black has just returned from Texas, where he was engaged as counsel in an important railroad case, in which there was an enourmous sum of money involved. Judge Black received for his fees 81, 000 per diem for every day he was absent from home, and he was gone about one month. Thirty thousamd dollars a month is a big fee, but Judge Black has reached a higher eminence in his profession than per- haps any living lawyer in Awmerica.— Pittsburg Post. 3 This is the way the “Labor Assem- bly of Cincinnati and vicinity” goes for the Negro-Chinese party : Unless the Government shall soon commence the work of redressing the wrongs or labor it will prove to have been unworthy of the first drop of that river of blood which five hundred thousand working-men poured out in defense of the old flag. To take our lands, to tax us so enormously to pay the costs of the war which the mono- polists produced, and then to import Chinamen to work in our stead and drive our fumilies into distress, consti- tute such au accumulation of wrongs | as would justify revaletion had we not the ballot for redress of grievan- ces. es ll Mp — The New York Tribune and other leading Republican journals continue to ie the Chinese movement, which is to drive all the working mew in the country out of employment. just as soon as coolies are introduced, There are not over four million arti- sans or laboring men in the United States, which sumber can be imported from China without at a)} disturbing the population there, to take the place of white people, because they are will- ing to work for lower wages. ee ——— Hon. Thomas Ewing, in a late letter on the Mississippi river, developes an interesting theory of the rivers running southward to abrade their western’ banks, and attributes it to the con- stantly increasing centrifugal force’ imparted to the water as it proceeds to the South, He enforces this ex: planation by pointing to the flict that ships sailing southward must correct a westward tendency, that railroad traius are affected by it, and that there is a reversed tendency in all things moving northward. This is an idea which deserves elaboration in the light of more ample facts. Abont two or three weeks since a rare discovery of iron ove was made by Mr. J. W. Devling of Flenrington, on a tract of mountain land belonging to him situate about I} miles from this city, on the Bald Eagle Moun. tain.
