On each occasion he was attended sap ‘by two mounted policemen, to clear the way, and fol- 4owed by another open carriage with his adjutants and attendants, but with no guard of honor or escort. ‘The Grand Duke Michael is a good looking and appa- rently humored youth, of 24 or 25, who seems to be as © to his uniform of the Prussian 4th Huzzars as ‘his elder brother is to that of the Lancers, The Grand POEny, to Berlin, and paid a visit to Baron Manteuttel. Count Nesselrode left here two-day for Kissingen, whither he is gone to take the benetit of the waters. The Fmperor held a Cabinet council here last Saturday, at the hotel of the Russian Embas Tn various Paris letters I o serve it mentioned that this 1sit of the Emperor of Russia to this Court is looked on as political tration against the triple treaty of April $. There is very little ground for this idea, as far as 1 ‘an see, of the state of irs. The real nature of the Visit is that of a private and family event, The presence fso many distinguished persons here at the same time rises from the circumstance of the navigation of the Bay Finland having been re-ope ust ut the time that he Finpress was paying ber visit here, which of itself, 2B connection with the peror’s visit to Warsaw, in- olved the latter's coming here just now, if he was to ome at all. While the policy of the two Ge Powers, as dictated by their weakness, was neutralily, Prussia at au early stage declared ber intention of not being in any way drag- ged into the war for the sake of Turkey, and subsequently observed a passive military attitude perfectly consistent. Austria, on the other hand, after disbanding her troops, declaring her policy to be neutral, puts her army on a war footing, and threatens a diversion in Russia's rear as soon as she’ sees an opening for herself in the Danubian Principalities. This is tho real offence against Russia; the treaty of April 15 has no great offence in the eyes of ia quead, tria, because it is very evident that the latter only ertered into it, with its remote contingency of war, because a binding peace had Jost been signed, in the same Way as she conciuded with the Western Powers the empty, hollow, but much yaunted treaty of December 2, 1864, only because sho had had the official assurance of Prince Gortschakoif on November 28 that the Emperor had accey ted the Four Points, That the coolness between the two Courts is considerable cannot be doubted; no Emperor of Russia has visited Warsaw within the memory of living man without the Emperor or an Archduke of Austria giving him the meeting there; on this last occa- sion, however, there was nothing of the sort, nor were any ‘Aust! ent here to participate in the greeting that mperor. The nature of it is an exhibi- to family and friendly relations to he time when the relations to the ave fallen to the zero of cooiness. Fur ther than this goes, I believe it would be incorrect to call it a political demons Madame Ristori’s Debut in London. [From the London June 5.] The great event of the theatrical year is over. Madame Ristori last night made her first Appearance before the English public. Let record the result at once. The gifted actress has rec siasm of an audience crowded, and yet discriminating, a pl judgment of the continental critic Signed to her, if not an unapproached pre-eminence in the highest regions of tragic art, at all events a coequal share of that bistrionic throne where Rachel queened it insole and undispit criticism, indeed, as our read has gone beyond this, aud wali an ingratit What too common we tear with that mo tile and capricious of all possible pub dethroned the elder goddess, in order to en triumph of the younger.

The drama is in thr 3. The sin Corinth.

On the retirement of the King, the bard asks the warrior the not unnatural question, what he is going to do with Medea? Jason, whois repre: sented throughout as an absolutely unmitigated scoun- drel, justities himself, by the fear inspired b: dea’s’ hideous crimes; next, by the irresistible attr of Creusa’s charms. Neither answer is_yery tory ectable and virtuous lover of Eurydice. Jason, has not time to discuss the matter further, and, to the relief of the audience, goes off in orde istor—a noted sea rover, who has long been the terror of Corinth, and has just made a fresh de scont on the coast. Creusa next appears, radient with he joy of her approaching nuptials, to offer her vows in fhe temple of Diana, Ere the last Strains of the hymu of ‘Orpheus died away on the air, Medea, with her two sons, enter on the scene. A wandarer from beyond the ‘seas, just arrived in Corinth, destitute and travel worn—she bids her two boys supplicate the Creusa’s heart is won at onc’ vor of the young bride. y attracted by the mother. Tr the children, and strangel: ohe scene which follows between the two ladies is one of “the most artistically contrived in the whole play. Rach confides to the other in a series of revelations indefinitely approaching, but never quite touching, the fatal point— everything but the name of the man they both love. At “Jength the entrance of Orpheus makes longer concealment ‘impossible. The deserted wife at once recognising in the bard a former comrade of her false lord, springs upon him with the breathless stion, ‘Does he liver’? The terrible secret of the fascination that had drawn the two women together is at once revealed—the wrath of Medea Blazes into fury—Creusa clings passionately to her love. “To-morrow,’’ she cries, ‘‘he shall be my husband.’’ “He, your ‘husband—we shall see,’’ (Hi! tuo— Ve- dremo,) is the reply of the wandering Queen, and the end of the first act. In the second the action advances but slowly. Jason returns in triumph from his victory over ‘the sea royer—the idol of the popular enthusiasin. He ‘has of course to face his wife. In the interview ho dis- = a hard hearted brutality which is not only in- itely revolting but intensely improbable, and which ‘can only be dramatically justified on the theory that M. Legouvé has determined to represent Medea as ab- bolutely driven upon her frightful crime by the in- veterate ition of fate and the remorseless cruelty of man. sole thought left in Medea’s soul after this ter- rible interview is vengeance on the woman who has sup- ted her. While she is gloating on the thought of this rev Creusa herself comes to save her from the fury ofthe Corinthian mob, whom Jason apparently has raised her.. The conflict of passions thus necessarily ex- gives rise of course to a succession of striking situa. mob finally breaks in, and Orpheus only suc- ceeds in them by promising that Medea shall be compelled at once to quit Corinth. The third act is filled with the a ig vengeance of the maddened queen. ‘The yenometyei! is sent to the doomed bride. The chil- dren are bro! to the mother for a last interview; terri fied by her vilence, and won by the gentleness of Creusa, there last sources of her consolation are mi supreme means of ber despair. They prefer the soft c reages of the stranger to the flerce and tempestuous fond. ness of the mother. They go. The mother is lef alone with ber own despair. At the foot of time altar of Saturn, That obscene god Besmeared with infants’ blood, she vows terrible vengeance. The children are brought back once more for a last adieu, The first im pulse of the outraged woman is to carry out her frantic vow, and offer up Wo Saturn the sons of Jason. Yet a mo ment, and all the mothor revives within her, and her heart is breaking in a wild agony of fondness over the frait of her own womb, when suddenly the death wail is heard for Crevsa—the fatal gift has done its work ; an Anfuriated mob rushes in to rend the children from the grasp of the sorceress. Modea fiics to the altar ; the crowd presses round—it closes in—two shrill ories of agony are heard—the crowd falls backshorrorstruck— and Medea stands at the foot of the altar, pale, with the Dlood reeking knife. Jason comes, winged with yen- eance, to slay with his own hand the destroyer of his ride ; he is stopped by the corpses of his sons. “Chi Ji Who has slain them? cries the father. “ Tu,’’ is Medea’s answer, as she rushes upon Jason ; and the curtain fails on her ineffablo despair. It will be at once perceived that this play, thongh occasionally it drags along with ultra-claseical heavines: yet contains many passages which afford scope to the powers of a great actress. Madamo Ristori makes the most of them. Her appearance is singularly adapted to the part; a stately stature, features strongly marked yet finely formed, and capable alike of expressing every of transitory emotion and the stormy stress of the amore vehement passions; @ voice that can range through the whole com| of weling, with pathos, wither ‘with scorn, and appal with tempestuous rage—alike qua- her for success in a part which blends in one arduous whole the ly fond mother, the insultingly aban. doned wife, the outraged meaine driven by the crosiost rongs to the most terrible of revenges. "Her first ap- our on the scene, as weary of heart and limb sho ‘descends from the rocks of the shore to the precinots of the temple, is in itself one of the most striking of ta bleaux, In the scene with Cruesa that immodiately fol- , the account she gives of her firat interview with her unnamed lover is the very perfection of animated warrative. As the interest of this scene advances, as ‘pie Volls ber doubts of Ler lord’s ddelity, it is admirable to watch how the sleeping in answer to Creusa’s qi should she find her misgivings true, into a burst of savage aud elvetrified the house. Loro? Ii leopardo, demon uestion: roaring Upon his prey, and bears it to his cave, re rends it limb by limb, and Joint by joint, Mangling each reeking member. ‘The action with which this fearful passage was given— the head thrust forward and downward, as though the very soul thirsted to lap blood; the arms crossed and re- crossed with convulsive energy, as it were in the very act of doing what the verse describes—was one of those bold inspirations of genius which are only justified by their instantancous and unparalleled success, Scarcely inferior in effect was the panting eagerness with which, on the entry of Orpheus, the abandoned wife rushes up to him with the one question, “Viver'’ Never was a whole being more thrown into one word—never was there a more magnificent burst of rapture th that which ut- tered the assuraice that her lost lord still lived:— Che pos r! solo un accento! Solo wu accento! Vive. When the fatal secret is revealed, when the truth breaks on her that Creusa is the destined bride of her false love, the sublimity with whiek she ascends step by step toa very climax of contemptuous hatred, is a marvel of artistic power. Queenly scorn has never been more consummately expressed than in the words with which this first act clos Ei! sposo tuo! Vedremo.’’ When the curtain fell en this surpassing scene Madame Ristori was twice compelled to come forward by the irrepresai- bie enthusiasm of the audience, The, second act, though admirably performed throughout, offers Tewor points of deiling effect—a consideration not unimportant when tho language of the drama is all but an unknown tongue to a considerable portion of the audience. Nothing, however, could be finer than the cry for vengeance with which the suppress- ed rage of the outraged woman bursts forth, after the long and terrible interview with Jason—nothing more touchingly pathetic than the transport with which the desolate mother embraces the children whom their father’s guilt had for a moment made her execrate. Very fine, too, is the sudden change with which she from exultation in the contemplated assassination of her Greek rival into the attitude of asuppliant, for her chil- dren’s sake, at that rival's feet. A second call awaited Madame Ristori at the termination of the second act. In the third her great powers find, perhaps, their fullest developement. The desolate despair with which she falls prostrate on the stage when even her own children abandon her; the ter- rible intensity with which she consecrates the ungrateful brood to Saturn; the wild burst of passionate tenderness with which, as the mother for the last time triumphs, she clasps them once again to her heart; the frenzied agony of the great crime and the concentrated power of that last 1 word shot “as from the deadly level of a gun’? the guilty author of all this woo—this varied and manifestation of tragic power of the very highest order would alone suffice to prove incontestibly the right of Madame Ristori to the pre-eminent station accorded her by the general suffrage ot Europe From the construction of M. Legouvé’s piece, and from the surpassing interest attached to the performance of Madame Ristori, it unovuidably follows that the Medea is the one character which ab to itself almost the un- divided attention of the audience, It would be unfair, however, not to add that several of the subordinate parts, those especially of Orpheus, Jason and Creusa, were very respectably filled, and thatthe general mise en scene Was worthy of the Lyceum management. Sailing of the American Yacht Sylvie from England. Sovmamptoy, June 5, 1856. This splondid specimen of American marine architec- ture sailed from this port for New York in charge of Cap- tain Comstock, who brought her into these waters in 1853.

WILLIAM STOKES, Secretary to the Manchester Peace Conference, Fresh Deposits of Guano. ‘The London Chronicle of June 5 says:—It appears that in addition to the deposits of guano lately discovered by the Americans, there have been discovered several iso- lated islands ow the coast of Ara lately ceded to Great Britain by the Imaum of Muscat, on which a valua- ble deposit of the came fertilizing ingredient has been found, of good quality. A royal license has been granted to Mr. J. Ord, of Litherland, near Liverpool, and STeasrs. J. Hindson and J. H. Hayes, merchants and brokers, of Liverpool, to raise and export the guano, during a period offive years, from the islasds of Jibleca, ‘ki, and Ghurzoad, in the bay of Kooria Mooria, on the south coast of Arabia. The license stipulates that all the guano which shall be raised from these islands shall be shipped direct to the port of Liverpool, or such other port as may be approved, on the application of the licensers. A royalty f 2. per’ ton isto be paid upon all the guano shipped during the first two years, and 4s. per ton afterwards, This discovery will tend to reduce the price of Peruvian, or at least to check any rise in its value; more particu- larly as the Panama Railway Company have reduced the charge for its conve s the Isthmus.

It is al- Ways stated that the prospects of next seasem are very brilliant, but we may now repeat that time-honored ex- Pression with some color of truth. The starring business does not pay, and every year we are improving our me- tropolitan stock companies in consequence of this fact. ‘The Broadway theatre, which closed on Saturday night, after a fair average season, will haye a short summer season. The stage management will remain in the hands of Mr. Blake, who intends to surround himself with a first rate stock company. Tho services of the principal members of the old company will be retained. Among those who will bo added, we hear the names of Mr. A. H. Davenport and Mrs. Davenport, who was, as Miss Lizzie Weston, a great favorite at Burton's, and has since ‘been enchanting the Philadelphians, Mr. ‘Thomas Placide is also engaged at the Broadway. It is quite certain, we believe, that Mr. F. B. Conway will join one of the New York companies, cither with Brougham at the Bowery or the Broadway. It is stated that Mr. F. L. Davenport will be Mr. Burton's leading actor next season, aud that Mr. Walcot also goes with Burton. Mrs. Charles Howard is also engaged here. Miss Keene has re-engaged nearly all of her company, including Mr. Jordan. Mr. Wallack’s company, we are told, will be about the same as last Season, with the exception of Messrs. Burtom and Walcot. ‘The programme, so far as it is disclosed, looks well and there will be a busy time in the green rooms about the first of September. The theatres are among tho greatest attractions of New York, and wo are glad to see them well supported. ‘We shall not be without amusement, during the hot months, however. There are always plenty of people to go to the theatre, even after “ everybody”? has left town. Mr. Fleming commences a summer season atBurton’s this evening, giving “The Merchant of Venice,’ and “ Beulah Spa.” His company includes Mr. J. J. Prior, Mrs. Lesdernier, Mrs. Fleming, Mr. G. Hollaad, aud other favorites. Mr. Brougham is making extensive alterations in the Bowery, and has engaged the best company that has been seen on that side of the town for years. It includes Charles Fisher, Mr. Brougham, Mrs. Brougham, Mme. Ponisi, Miss Kate Reignolds, bir. J. C. Dunn, and Mr, Jas. Seymour. Mr. Bourcicault is making arrangements for something unique at Wallack’s, which house he will open on Tues- day week, under the name of the Summer Gardon. Miss Agnes Robertson and Miss Jessie M’Lean will be among the company. Niblo still hangs out at the pleasant garden to which large audiences flock nightly. He gives to-night a very nice bill, including ‘Pongo,’ ya ballet for M'lle. Robert and performances on the tight rope by Mr. Hengler, who does the most extraordinary things so quietly that they seem a matter of course, Kratzer is still at the Empire Hall, with his beautiful ta- Dieaux vivants and other entertainments. The programme for to-night is very tempting. Then at the Broapway Varmrres the Juvenile Como dians give ‘The Six Degrees of Crime.’? The success of these clever little people is as merited as it is great. The colored native American opera, too, at Woon’ Munsters, 444 Broadway, still holds out against the weather. The colored man can stand heat. “The Mis- chievous Monkey’? (seventh week) is one of the attrac- tions for this evening. Miss KeEN1 closed on Saturday, ina blaze of glory. ion to the speech of the direc- tress, which we gave yesterday, there were short addresses by Messrs. Jordan, Johnston, and E After the performances, Miss Keene was serenaded by the orchestea, under the baton of its accomplished ch4f, Mr. Baker. Subsequent to the sere- nade, Miss Keene gave a petit souper on the stage to her employés. She was then and there presented by Miss on the part of the ladies of the company, with a silver pitcher and drinking cups, and by Mr. Geo.

Its faults seem to be a lack of origi- nal conception of character and a weakness of plot; the verse is smooth, easy and flowing; it has more passion than power, aud more imagery than sympathy. Some passages display real poetic genius, a rare thing in this work day world. It was quite suocessful, Miss Logan's part being one exactly suited to her powerful and some- times too strongly colored style.—At the People’s theatre, on the 11th inst., Mrs. I. C. Frost had a benefit, when Miss Eliza Logan volunteered, playing in “The Italian Bride."’ Mr. Wilkins’ comedy, “My Wife’s Mirror,”” wag also produced, with Mrs. Frost, Mrs. Leighton, and Mr. Mortimer in the principal parts.—The People’s theatre is to be rebut.

The applicant thanked the magistrate, amd with- The Messager des Theatres states that the amount of au- thors’ rights in 1830 was only 500,000 francs, whilst in 1$56-'56 it was not less than 1,327,872 francs—thus di- vided—Paris, 1,085,426 francs; ‘suburbs, 18,511 francs; departments, 223,934 francs. ‘These figures’ were fur- nished by the report lately read at a meeting of the Dra- matic Authors’ Society.

Interesting Report.from the Court of Claims Wasnivaton, June 20, 1856. Below I give you a copy of an interesting report sent to the two houses of Congress to-day by Mr. Chiof Justice | Gilehrist, of the United States Court of Claims, It is a brief, clear and succinct statement of the scope and oper- ations of this important tribunal, and will be read with intereat by the whole country:— To Tux SxNATE AND House oF RkPRESENTATIVE) OF THK Unite StaTEe— The undersigned, presiding Judge of the Court of Claims, asks leave respectfully to make the following statement It is presumed, that as the court is of recent origin, as the reports of its decisions are, by the act establishing ‘the court, to be made to Congress, and as its operations can be but imperfectly known, except to those who are immediately engaged in their execution, some statement of the character and extent of its business may be accept- able. There is no doubt that erroneous opinions have been entertained in relation to the nature and difficulty of the cases which are presented to the court, and it is de- sirable, from the experience of the last nino months, to make to Congress such a statement as will render intel- ligible the position and duties of the court. ‘The act establishing the court provides that the court shall hear and determine all claims founded upon any law of Cougress, or upon any regulation of an executive department, or upon any. contract, express of implied, with the government of the United States, which may be suggested to it by a petition filed therein, and also all claims which may be referred to said court by either house of Congress.” In rolation to the question of jurisdiction, we have been careful not to exceed the powers conferred upon us by Congress. We have endeavored to limit our powers a3 much as possible, thinking it to be much safer and better rather to fall short of than to exceed the jurisdiction con- ferred on us by Congress. Acting ‘upon this prin- ciple, we have decided that in order to justify a decision in favor of a claimant, his claim must “in ail cases be founded upon some legal rights. This principle we have adopted in the cases of Todd the United States, and Lindsay vs. the United State We have not regarded ourselves as a council to advise Congress what Was just and equituble, or as a jury to exercise a merely discretionary authority. Where a claim has been re- ferred to us by either house of Congr we have not supposed that the whole power of Congress over the mat- ter was delegated to us, but that we were to report our decision whether the claim was founded upon any legal Our opinion Was been that what wag required by 3 of justice, irrespective of law, was a matter the decision of which was net intended to be con- ferred upon the court. As to the business of the court, we are convinced that no one Who has not had personal experience on the sub- ject can have any correct idea of its diversity, its intrica- cy, its perplexity, the exhausting labor necesbary for its investigation, or the large sums of money it involves. Un- til the institution of this court, there had never been any- thing like a systematic inquiry into the modes of action by the government through the executive departments, or the relation im regard to contracts, and the liabilities aris ing therefrom, which the government bore to the citi zens. It was inevitable, and ft is astonishing that it should not have been sooner perceived, that among twen- ve millions of people inhabiting the almost boundless tory comprehended by the Union, innumerable ques- tions of the most diffictlt and delicate nature im have arisen, de s in the decision of whi were alike’ discréditable to the moral sense of the people, and to the public faith of the government, of which the people were tho founda Tt has been rted and proved by the experience of the British that legislative bodies are unfitted by the great public interests, from careful, judicial investigations into private rights. |The consequence has y that claims accumulated until their magnitude repulsed all willingness to investigate hem, and a state of things arose which made it hopeless almost to present a claim against the United States with any p t of a decision. Tt m: of the tory of a past gone- “y haye been pending before Congress during before us belong to the hi varying from five years to qghty years, and in ances, although reported upon by commit. rits do not appear to have received a cure- the condition of affairs when we entered upon the discharge of our duties. Our field of action was entirely new. We had no preced > guide us. necessary at once to adopt some system of rules for transaction of business. The ordinary rules of prac in courts of law were obviously inapplicable. We were forced to adopt rules in advance of any experience upon the’ subject, conscious that we shouid be forced often to d sometimes abrogate them. We found numer- ses, involving questions entirely out of the path of inary legal investigation, requiring a degree of care and study rarely necessasy in courts of justice. Cases of contracts, intricate in their detail, imper- feetty defined by the evidence, reducible with diffi- culty to any legal principles, and erroncous in amount, met us at the threshold. ‘Cases involving the proper construction of treaties, important questions of public law, and that most difficult and delicate of all questions, the responsibility of the United States to their citizens, were laid before us. The construction of acts of Congress, the legitimate powers of the executive departments, the duties and liabilities of government officers, the constitu- tional powers of the general government, the duties of neutral nations, and questions arising out’ of a state of war, were all directly or incidentally to be inquired into. It cannot be presumed that with a due regard to our own reputation or to our official oaths, we were disposed to pass lightly upon questions of such momentous ima 3 Our object has been not to ‘‘decide against time,” not to have it proclaimed that we had despatched so many cases m so many hours, but to give cack case such a of care and patient attention as would enable us to use it as. a precedent in subsequent cases of a like character. Our desire has been not to get rid of the cases, but to decide them; and, in order to do that, they must be carefully examined. One case, involving no less than two millions of dollars, occupied us three weeks in the argument. Another case, of great importance as to principle, re- quired two weeks. These cases were argued by the most eminent counsel in the Union. Many other cases of consequence have required from three days to.a week. It ig dificult,to estimate the amount of sums involved in the cases pending. It is sufficient to say that it is very large. Each of the Judgos have dad an extensive experience upon the bench, and that experience convinces us that no ordinary judicial du- ties are to be compared in difficulty, responsibility and labor with those (eal peer. position. ‘We take it for granted that the object of Congress wa to ensure the award of equal and oven handed justice 5 the claimants and to thegovernment alike. We are con- vinced that with the present force that object cannot be accomplished as it should be. The duties of the Solicitor have been performed with conscientiousness and fidelity to the United States, worthy of all imitation, But no oae lawyer, however experienced and eminent, can pro- erly represent and protect the interests of the govern- ‘The cases are s0 numerous, his dutiog are 80 harrass- his labors so unceasing, that this is entirely im- practicable, He is om one side of every case, be Ca to the most eminent counsel, and forced to perform an amount of physical labor exhausting toany one. The in- tereets of the government cannot be properly guarded witbout an immediate increase of the persons de duty it is to represent them. Accordmg to the provisions of the act of Congress, it is necessary that the Court should act twice upon bgt d cluim brought before them. _ allegations in tho petition must first be examined, in order to determine whether, - admitti the facts stated to be true, the claimant is legally entitled to relief. If, in the opinion of the Court, the facts alleged, even if true, do not state any cause of action, there is an end of the case, so far as the action of the Court is con- cerned, If the Court should be of opinion that the facts tated, if proved, would entitle the claimant to relief, then an order is made for the taking of testimony. When the testimony is taken, the ease js presented to the Court upon the evidence, and the inquiry then is whether the allegations are proved. Itis evident that many of the most important questions which «an arise must be pre- sented wpon the statements in the petition in evidence of he testimony, and the attention of the Court has often been necessarily devoted to cases in this position. The aw requireg us to state not only our opinions but the easona x them, and the dnty, with the ad- vantage of but few precedents’ to guide us, hag been extremely onerous. Our undivided attention has been given to'hearing arguments in court, and to drawing up opinions after the adjournment. These duties have required all our time. We shall have been in ses- sion continuousiy for nine months, with only such re- ceases a Been absolutely necessary, to investigate the cases argued and to draw up the opinions. To per- form this labor there are but three Judges, and every lawyer and every reflecting man must seo that thore is no tribunal in America of whom so much is required, whether we regard the complexity, the importance in Foint of principle, or the pecuniary value of the claims submitted. The‘duues of all the officers connected with the Court of Claims have proved to be extremely ardu- ons ; not only the Judges and the Solicitor, but the chief clerk also have been taxed to the extent of their ability. According to the pragtice which we found established, the decisions of the Court are to be communicated to cach house of Congress. This has rendered duplicate reports necessary. We have not as yet appointed an assistant clerk, because we desired that the business should be conducted in as economical a manner as possible ; but ex- perience has convinced us not only that an assistant clerk ts necessary, but that thé compensation of the chief clerk is altogether below what is required to induge a man of office. Under all the difficult circunistancos attendant upow tlie commencement of business, in & tribunal of such # pe- cular character as the Court of Claims, we hope to pre- sent to Congress, before the end of the present seasion, if we shall receive the evidence that is expected, our firm! decision im one hundred and ty five cases. Wo shall have examined and ordered mony in two hundred cases, and we shall have drawn ap cgi A a hundred ela- Borate opinions in questious of law. More, we think, could not reasonably be expected, and we have the con- seiousnees that all our time and ‘capacity have been de- voted to the performanee of our official duties. [From the New Orleans Picayune, Jane 15.) The case of Victor Gerodias and Amedee Porche, who have for some time past been under arrest as accessories to the murder of Francois Girard, was yesterday exami- ned, We haye already given a synopsis of the testimony adduced before the jury of inquest, amd in the main that taken before the Recorder was of a similar character. All the witnesses agreed as to the fact that Arthur Padron was the man who shot Girard, and that Gpstaye Decoux and Eugene Durat were the chief accessories. Mr. Dorrs,” the keepor of the coffee house at the corner of Orleans and Marias streets, where the offence was committed, states that he saw Padron, deliberately take aim and tire at Girard, and that Decoux struck bim not only as he Was falling, but after he lind fallen and was dead, ex claiming in French, ‘Je te tiens maintenant:’’ (I have got you now!) He did’ not see Gerodias or Porche take any active part in the attack. Paul Rosseau stated that. he was standing in front of ‘Trémé market, and saw ull that occurred. It was on the night of the 30th ult., at 11 o'clock P. M. Four men were ying cards in Dours’ coffee house, and four other men adyanced towards the house, three of whom were Padron, Decoux and Porche, They ‘sat down with two others on a bench in front of the coffee house, Padron being near the door, Directly he heard the report of a pistol, and going to the house asked Dours what was the matter. Ho replied, “we have been fired at.” At this time Padron was in the coffee house, and had the butt end of a pistol sticking out of his pocket. Witness asked him if he knew who fired the pistol, He said, ‘ no, but if he did know he wouldn't tell Witness then arrested him, and a crowd, among whom were Decoux, Gerodias and Duprat. During the scuflie witness was shot at from behind, but the ball struck his knife and did not enter his body. By this crowd the prisoner was rescued from witness and Louis Rousseau, who just then arrived. After the rescue Pa- dron drew his pistol, and aiming at Gerard, shot him in the breast. He then fired twice at witness, but missed his aim. He also fired twice at Louis Rousseau, the last shot slightly wounding him in his right arm. The crowd then cried’ to Padron, “run and shoot,’? and he did so, After Girard was shot he began to stagger, when Decoux struck him with a black cane; he also struck him after he had fallen on the floor and was dead, for he died immedi- ately. Porche held Louis Rousseau by the arms and hindered him from doing his duty. Saw no weapons in tho hands of either Porche or Gerodias. Padron, Decoux, and Duprat were the chief actors in the murderous aifray. ‘Another witness deposed that he saw Gerodins raise a chair and advance towards Rousseau, declaring that he should not arrest Padron. All the other facts sworn to by Rousseau were corroborated by other witnesses, some of whom saw Padron when ho fired at Rousseau before Girard was shot. It was before the murder also that Gerodias ed the chair to strike Rousseau. ‘The Recorder, in rendering his decision, stated that the cbarges brought against the prisoners were not fully sub- stantiated, though they were doubtless guilty of a gross breach of the peace and of interference with the police in tho discharge of their duty; he would, therciore, commit them for trial before the First District Court, und recom- mended that their bail be tixed at $2,500. In accordance with the call published in the New Or- leans journals, a meeting of the French residents of that city was held on the 12th inst. It was Resolved, That the Governor of Louisiana would be in vited, in the name of the French population of New Or leans) to take the necessary steps to have the murderers of Froncois Girard arrested and brought to justice. Resolved, That a gencral subscription be opened among the French of the city, and the amount subscribed em- ployed to facilitate and procure the suid arrest.
