There is something mythical,’’ he added, with a smile, “about the apology, Although there is no official confirmation of Mr. Crampton's dismissal, I have never anticipated anything less. But war is an imposaibility The accounts from the inundated localities are of a less. disastrous character. The beautiful weather we now eu- Joy holds out every hope that, for this year at least, the deluge is stopped. The districts of the Loire still suffer most, and, unfortunately, a considerable time is likely to elapse before the evil done can bo remedied; for notwith- standing all the efforts made to prevent it, the waters have made an extensive irruption into the extensive quarries of Angers. ‘The Journal de Maine et Loire gives the following do- ails The Porcé (these are the names of the quarries) was first filled ; then the Ermitage, and then the waters reached the mounds which surround the Grand Correaux. There, in presence of the obstacles accumulated by science and devotedness, they seemed to redouble in rage, and rose with prodigious rapidity. Very shortly atter, the crowds collected at the mouths of the immense openings were struck with horrible admiration at the sight of this furious torrent, which, surmounting the last crest of the barriers opposed to it, described an immense curve, and rushing into an abyss with @ roar louder than the loudest thunder, dashed aside like straw the im- mense masses of rock which stood in its . Afew instants sulliced to fill to the edge this gulf of two hun- dred feet in depth and as wide as the Champ de Mars (some two hundred English acres), and to annihilate this wonderful work, the result of so much labor and anxiety. ‘To the noise of the fall of a rushing cataract was added the loud whistling (rom the galleries, the opening of which was burst through in a moment. The ground around trembled as in an earthquake, when the torrent rushed into the galleries, and the spectators in alarm hastily retired, considering that it would be rashness to brave these convulsions of nature. Thousands of indus- trious workmen are this thrown out of employ. ‘The same journal states that the verdant valley of Beau- fort, the real garden of Anjou, has disappeared beneath the water. The ground is everywhere covered with at least a depth of two metres. The church is flooded, and most of the peasants’ cottages show only their roofs above the surface. Boats are constantly moving about, endea- voring to save the property of the inhabitants, and con- vey bread to the persons who haye sought refuge in the upper part of their houses. The subscription for the distressed, collected in the capital up to the present moment, amounts to 748,351f. ‘The Monileur of to-day states that the Emperor quitted Angers this morning (the 10th), and at 8 o'clock set out for Nantes. The Divatte had broken its barriers. His Ma- jesty went to carry succor to the victims of the inunda- tion. Elsewhere in the town the waters have recedéd, and circulation is re-established. It {s impossible to ex- press the enthusiasm with which his Majesty is every where welcomed by the population. Yesterday, upwards of 5,000 persons were collected at the Palais de I'Industrie to witness the distribution of the prizes. M. Ronher, Minister of Commerce, of Agriculture, and of Public Works, presided. The scene was really a very animated one. The beauty of the Palace, the deli- cious garden in the nave, the variety of costume of the successful candidates, the number of senators and legisla. tors in full dress, the perfect arrangement and ample epace, as well as all that upholstery which on such occasions the French know how to introduce with so much dramatic effect, gave the exhibition an air of life and bustle, and reality of usefulness, which to a practical mind rendered it very interesting. Of course the lion's share, and more than the lion’s share of prizes, fell to the English, who may be said to have almost swampe? the Exhibition as regards its universality. But it may be fairly calculated that most beneficial results will accrue to French agriculture from the experiment. From the moment it opened, every day has witnessed an accession of visiters, and sometimes it was amusing to wituess tho anxiety of educated Frenchmen to catch any stray Eng lishman by the button for the purpose of extracting in formation on a subject which, although evidently deoply interested in, they were as ignorant of as a New Zealand eavage. A fillip has, however, been given to the popular mind, which, once awakened in France, never fails to respond. ‘The Pope’s Legate, Cardinal Constantine Patriz, Bishop of Albano, has arrived in Paris to perform the ceremony of the Imperial baptism. He is the subject not only of the most protound attention from the Court, where he is treated with Papal honors, but the clergy generally, with the Archbishop at their head, seem quite overwhelmed with the effulgence of this Papal ray. The addresses to him, as the representative of the Pope, leave lité for the Deity himself, whose minister he calls himself. Ris Holiness the Pope has remitted the sum of 15,000 francs towards the fund for the benefit of the victims of the inundations. ‘The number of children to whom the Emperor and Em- prees will have to stand sponsors, in fulfilment of their engagement to take upon themselves that relation for all children born on the same day as the Prince Imperial, will be 3,600. The prefeets have been ordered to inform themselves exactly of the situation of the families, and to give assistance to such as are in want. The intention of the Emperor and Empress is to transmit to each of these families a certificate recording the honor conferred upon them. An annual sum will ve devoted by their Ma jesties for the relief of the necessitous, and for the sup- port of such children as shall become deprived of their natural protectors. The mayors have sent up information that many familiesphave delayed their respective bap- tisms until the day"appointed for that of the Prince Impe- rial. The Moniteur informs the parents that they are at liberty to choose whom they will to represent their Ma- Jeeties on the occasion. ‘The official journal gives to-day the programme of the ete. sr the morning of the 14th salvos of artillery will an- nounce both the commencement and the termination of the baptismal ceremony. Afler the termination ir Majesties will dine at the Hotel de Ville. In he evening this civic palace and its environs will be gor- sonsly decorated and illuminated. The tower of Saint Seoques 1a Boucheric and the public buildings of the capi- tal, will alao be illuminated. On Sunday, the 16th, salvos of artillery will be fired from the cannon of the Invalides at six in the morning and #ix o'clock in the evening. The féte de jour will be kept simultaneously on the Rspianade des Invalides and at the Barrier du Trone. On the Esplanade of the Invalides two large theatres will be placed, representing in turn military spectacles; also two otber theatres, representing gymmastic exer- cives and rope dancing, Xc. Four poles, well greased, (méte de coeagne) surmounted with prizes, will be at the service of competitors. At two o’clock 300 balloons, full of baptismal sweetmeats, will be launched from the cen- tre of the esplanade. At 4:30 grand balloon will be loosed from the same spot, projecting ia the midst of the crowd parachutes containing bags of sweetmeats. ‘At the Barrier du Trone we theatres will be set up, one of which will give military spectacles, the other rope dancing, tumbling, &c.; also greasy poles, and so forth. At one o’clock gratuitous representations at the Imperial Opera, the theatre Frangaise, the Opera Comique, the Odeon, &e., &ec., &e. At night the garden of the Tuileries, the Place de la Concorde,the Grand avenue and round point of the Champs Flysées, decorated with porticoes, garlands, lustres and vases, will be illuminated with glass and colored lanterns. The fagade of the garden of the Tuileries, on the Place de Ja Concorde, will reproduce the illumination executed at Versailles in honor of the Queen of England’s visit. The Industrial Palace and its environs will also be illnminated. The Hotel de Ville, the tower of St. Jacques la Boucherie, the Arc de Triomphe de I’ Etoile, the Barrier du Tréne, the Pont Neuf, the eaplanade of the Invalides, and all the public edifices will also be illuminated. ‘At 8o’clock the Port d’Ursay will be illuminated, a3 well as numerous large vessels assembled in the basin of the Seine, between the Pont Royal and the Pont de la Con- corde. Tn there veasela will be placed bands of music, who will execute various airs during the evening. At9 o'clock two displays of fireworks will take place, one upon the Quai @Orsay, before the Legislative Palace; the the other at the Barrier du Trone. Bach of these’ will represent a Gothic architectural edifice, with a baptistry At the end of the fireworks, on the Quai d’Orsay, there will be a grand explosion, representing @ sheet of water and burning cascades. This will be seen the whole length of the balustrade of the Pont d'Orsay. Pama, June 12, 1866. Paris on Fite Days—The Philosophy of National Spee- tacles—Preparations for the Imperial Baptien—Theatri- cat Character of the Mise en Scene—The Quarrel Letween Great Britain and the United Stales—Singular Incidents of the Inundations, de., de. ‘he metropolis is letting itself go, as @ young lady of our acquaintance used to say when the sighs of some gal Jant swain had relaxed all the fibres of her heart, in all the delightful madness of the tender passion, Paris is in the full delirium of an expected fé/e, and that one of the greatest of its kind. ‘The reader who has never visited la belle France will form a very inadequate conception from any chronicle he may have perused, of the effect of these diés fete on her population, To visit Paris when she is giving birth to one of them is the lifelong ambition of the distant provincial, Having witnessed one of her high days of glorification, he returns to his department aw inch higher in the estimation of his neighbors, and probably much more than this in his own, Now, however, that the chemin defer \s daily opening its re. NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, JUNE 29, 1856. Sources to the extremest borders of the empire, these pro- | vVincial visits increase in a rapid ratio. Desires incréase by) indulgence, and they who have once visited the scene of their fascination again and again find themselves drawa Within the magio circle of the capital on these great occa- sions; and it is a fact, that the enormous infux from the departments, in a financial poizt of view, generally more than indemnifies the munir’ | 1y ror ine expense it has incurred. To the Anglo-Saxon race it is incomprehensible how a highly civilized people can derive not only pleasure but intengo excitement. from this perpetual ringing of changes ‘on lights, poles, flags, fireworks, trumpeting and specta cle. That the provincial should do so, who beholds all this dramatic array for the first time, is intelligible; but that the Parisian should be thrown into a frenzy of extacy by'scenic effects, of which from day to day and hour to hour he sees all the modus operandi, ia astonishing. Yet very few, even among the oldest, wisest, gravest of her citt- zens are found who do not look upon these fooleries as belonging to the res sacrer of the capital. They declare that no government or dynasty can afford to dispense with them, and that an executive studious of the common- wealth in the matter of fées may afford to be careless about many things of far graver importance. Asa mat ter of policy they sre pronounced to be unquestionable. ‘They cisseminate the renown of Paris throughout the length and breadth of the empire. They bring foreigners from distant regions, who, coming to gaze on an epheme- ra) show, remain to inspect, and spread the fame of the magnificent monuments by which they find themselves surrounded. But apart from all this, the true Parisian declares that there is no spectacle, no reunion, no domes- tic episode, that gives him half the pleasure and thrilling sense of erjoyment as do these fétes. ‘Talk not to me,” he says, “of the broad ways being interrupted by the erection of scaffolding, the object of which 13 the tem- ple ofa day—an hour; of the earth being gutted to admit conduits to supply fountains which vanish at sundown; talk not of plastered statues, gilded kiosks, improvised gardens—tbe labor of weeks—the duration of a day; I tell you that they are the means of setting all classes afoot’ of giving sweet pleasure to high and low, of develop ing the ratioral civilization of Frenchmen—of making the heart of all France, a3 one man, sing for joy; and. there- fore, legitimist, Orleanist, fusionist, socialist, republican— call me any thing you like, but give me, give me, in God’s name, from time to time, a national féte.”’ After this, the reader will not be astonished when I tell him that this moment, before the portico of Notre Dame, in the broad place in front of the Hotel de Ville, all along the long line of esplanade facing the Hotel des Invalides, thousands of idlers are collected, watching the prepara: ions which are being made for Saturday, the day of the imperial baptism, an¢ for the féte which is to follow on Sunday afterwards. How the greater part of them can afford to spare the time from their daily occupation is inexplicable; but, as if such a thing had never happened before, there they stand, watching with intense interest, painted figures of the saints in cardboard, as, with a noose around their neck, they are one by one hauled up by workmen, and placed in niches on the facade of the cathe- dra!, Then the quantity of painted bunting which is be- ing nailed hither and thither over the sacred edifice, is marked with a scrutinizing pae. In fact, many, from the determined manner in which they seem to have planted themselves, appear as if they intended to take up their abode altogether in the locality, till the ceremony has Deen performed, ‘As far ag can be judged at present,'the cathedral is to be fitted up, within and without, much in the same prin- ner us on the occasion of the imperial wedding. ‘The whole of the intorior is hung with silk drapery, so that none of the architectural decorations are visible. The effect of this will be immensely increased Ag the ten thousand lights and burners, which will give the chapel the appearance of one of those spangled etherial domains pictured by the pious enthusiasm of devout poets. Im- agine all this sacred panoply relieved by the brilliant and various costumes of the denizens of all Europe, aided by the strains of exquisite melody, and the pealing notes of the superb organ echoing slong the yaults of the fretted roof. There 4s no doubt of its being a sight that will long be re- membered by those whose vision has not been hackeyed in such dramatic scenes. The procession is to be one of singular impressiveness, but, though Ihave been indulged with a sight of the programme, I wilf not spoil the de- scription I hope to send you by any previous forestal- ment. As @ specimen of the dramatic character which run3 throughout these preparations, I may mention that in the space before the Hotel de Ville, a row of new houses is in process of erection; but not being finished—indeed, some of them scarce begen—Fronch ingenuity has hit upon the following expedient:—A canvas facing, amply secured by scaffolding behind, representing the houses as they are to be, is put up, and painted so artistically that not till the eye is brought close to bear upon itis the Mlusion dis- covered. These theatrical houses run on either side, to the distance of some 300 or 400 yards, of a beautiful arch, under which, through a new boulevard, linea on both sides with ‘Venetian masts, bearing oriflames apd Joiscrauz of the tricolor, the Imperial cortege will pass on its way to the hospitalities of the Hotel de Ville. Thave, to advert ta other matters, left myself little room to speak of politics; and probably, as you are just now so full of them at home, you will not be sorry’ for ‘the fact. The remarks contained in an article in the HERALD, which speaks of “those scenes of Jawlessness and out- rage which have signalised Mr. Pierce’s mal-administra- tion,”’ have produced a profoundeffect among diplomatic circles. It begins to be thought that the chief organs of public opinion in America will so thoroughly scout the pretensions of Mr. Pierce, that there cannot be a possi- bility of bis re-election. On the probability of war between the United States and England the Univers has the following pithy sen- tenc “The London journals state to-day that, in the event of a war, England may count on the support of France. We hope that they are mistaken. We are en- tirely disinterested in the question. We haye no neces- sity to seck soldiers in America, and the yweeent alliance does not compel us to espouse all the quarrels of our neighbors.”’ The Emperor dined at Nantes yesterday, and returned to Paris in the evening. He spares no fatigue of body or mind ia his charitable visitations. The various rivers are gradually subsiding, but no language can exaggerate the terrible distress which prevails. Another list of sub- ecribers is published in the Moniteur to-day, ‘amounting to upwards of 800,000f., and sums are still pouring in from ail quarters. The Cardinal Archbishop of Tours has placed his own palace at the service of the victims 4 not fewer than 500 persons have been accommodated. In the Varenno, a district between the Cher and Loire, the boatmen had to cut through the roofs of houses to get at the inmates. Incredible though it may appear, some obstinately refused to quit their perilous situat.ons, and were obliged to be carried away vi et armis. In one house an old nan armed himself with a knife, and threatened to murder the boat- man who proposed to remove him. In another house a woman declared that nothing on earth should induce her to move, and threats were made that she should be bound hand and foot and carried off by force, so as to save her in spite of herself, Seeing that these threats were about to be carried into execution, she at length got into a boat, insisting at the same time on taking with her fifteen rab- bits, which she could not find it in her heart to abandon. It is calculated that out of the oighty-four departments of France something like fifty have been more or lees affected by the inundations. Personal Intelligence. The Huntsville (Texas) Item states that Genera] Hous- ton has recovered from his late attack of catarrh, and is now able to stir about and see his friends. He will re- return to Washington shortly. The General's attack was very serious, and atone time his friends were alarmed ‘on account of his danger.
