Great Alarm in Buckingham Palace—Fenian Attempt to Fire the Royal Mansion. Lonpon, April 22—2 A. M. An alarming report has just been received at the newspaper offices in this city. It is said that two men, supposed to be Fenians were arrested at alate hour to-night near the ser- vants’ door of Buckingham Palace. They were carry- ing a hamper, which, on being opened, was found to contain a gallon of liquid phosphorus, or “Greek fire.” ‘The parties made a desperate resistance, and were with dimculty secured. A third person, who was in company with those bearing the basket, fled as soon as the latter were seized and escaped all pursuit. Parliament in Session—Criminual Punishments Law. Lonvon, April 21~Midnight. In the House of Commons to-night a bill requiring all executions of criminals by hanging to be con- ducted in private was considered in Committee of the Whole. Mr. Charles Gilpin, member for the borough of Northampton, moved an amendment abolishing cap- ital punishment. Mr. Gregory and Mr. Mill opposed the motion. Mr. Mili, in the course of his speech against tho amendment, sald he was sorry to place himself in opposition to those who desired to modify our criminal law; but by their efforts the application of the death penalty was now confined to cases of murder. At this point he thought they should stop, and aliow the punishment of death to remain as the penalty for the commission of the highest crime known to the law. He deprecated the change which was proposed from capital punishment to imprison- ment for life; the latter punishment he declared was torture of the most fearful character. The amendment moved by Mr. Gilpin was lost, and the original bill was agreed to by the committee. The Fenlan Murder Trials—Important Testi- mony. Lonpon, April 21—Evening. The tris! of the Fenian prisoners charged with causing the Clerkenweli explosion was resumed at ten o'clock this morning. Muilaney, the informer, entered the witness box and was cross-examined by the counsel for the de- fence. Tie testified that he had acted as a Fentan centre; boarded with Murphy and met at his house W. Des- mond, one of the prisoners at the bar; meetings of the conspirators were held at Murphy's house on the 2% and 13th of December, at which he was present; he was asked on both occasions by English and the two Desmonds to go to the explosion. The Judge, interrupting, questioned the witness as follows:—Was the word explosion used * Witness—I don’t know. Judge—You must answer yes or no. Witness—No, Witness on further cross-cxaminatton stated that he had resolved to turn informer because he feared English would offer himself as Queen’s evidence, the latter having threatened to do so. The cross-examination of this witness was very long and protracted. Vaughn, the other informer, was then cailed by the counsel for the Crown, and was examined by the Solicitor General. He testified that he joined the Fenian organization in 1 that he was sworn into the order by T. Desmond, one of the prisoners on trial; saw the same Desmond about noon on the day of the explosion, when Desmond in- formed him of the plot for the release of Burke by blowing up the prison wall, Witness swore post tively that the prisoners Barret, English and the two Desmonds were engaged in the conspiracy. On cross-examination witness said he was a tailor by trade; had been in the army; would) not say whether he was a deserter; acknowledged that he was given to drink and might have been out of his mind at times; contradicted his direct testimony by stating that he had never been sworn into the Fenian order; stated that his support had been provided for by the police authorities since his oifer to give testi- mony, and that he expected to get the reward offered for revealing the conspiracy, A clerk and a carman in the employ of the Messrs. Dealoia, powder dealers, were severally sworn and testified to the sale and delivery of the powder to one of the conspirators. The court then adjourned antil to-morrow morning.

French THEATRE.—“He cried no wonder such ce- lestial charms for ten long years have kept the world in arms.” So Pope says that Homer says that Priam said when he first saw La Belle I and that was without Offenbach’s music and without the Paris dresses. What would the exuberant old fellow have said if he had seen it with all these addi- tions, if he could have entered into the spirit of that exquisitely arch piece of musical mischief, “Le Rot Plaintif qui st'embarque,” or have heard the naive reflections of the princess touching un mari sage ? Héiéne, Menelaus, Agamemnon, Paris, the two Ajaxes, have become as much realities in the life of the lay-goer as wero a short time ago the “Grand Duchess’ Paul, Puck and Boum; and realities of the same nonsensical and delicious sort—people in whose rand we give ourselves up to absolute fun and laugh at all the shams and things: heroical.

For some days past the United States Court has been engaged in the consideration of a suit brought by Thomas J.

The grounds in this case were peculiar, the judg- ment of condemnation having bcen opened for cer- tain purposes by consent of the United States Dis- trict attorney and had never been closed, After @ long ‘ argument, in which Messrs, Semmes, Billings and Conrad for Mr. Semmes, Mr. Mills for the purchaser of the property, and ex-District Attorney Waples for the gov- ernment, Judge Durell declared his opinion that the sale was Ulegal. The judgment, however, has not been formally entered up. time, the recent de- cisions of the Supreme Court in the case of the United States vs. Armstrong, and Union Insurance Company vs. United States et al, would appear to invalidate all the confiscatoin judgments and sa which were made during the war. ‘The parties who: property was thus wrested from them are not inac- live in prosecuting their rights. and they wittoertainly have the per aged of the whole community tn every legitimate effort they make tn the premises.
