We fear, however, that thia nap yy movement of con- ciliat.on has come to & standstill, and we Soenks se Bret it, both in the interest of free institutions, which were quietly growing up, and in that of the stability of the government. We indulzed the idea that we might give credit for that congiiatory movement to the Emperor and M. Kouher, though in very differ- ent degrees, The Emperor issued orders, decrees and proclamations, but this manifestation we ac- Know.edged that he anticipated necessity rather than awaited its imperativesummons, On the other hand, M, Rouher was entrusted with the duty of carrying out the imperial vbehests, but he was in no hurry about it; indeed, it has often happened that his action was as slow as the Emperor's utterances were basty and unexpected. He waited until necessity arose, but when its pressing aud powerful claims made themselves feli, then he obeyed and sacrificed himself and others decisively and cheerlully enough, ‘the result was that, wich an Emperor who felt the necessities of the times and @ minister who readily yielded w them, the transformation of the constitution ‘was gradually and imperceptibly taking place. ‘The constitution of 1862 was still nominally the Jaw of the land, but the charters of 1814 and 1830 were already in operation. In short, the wiskes of the country for @ more liberal régime were being gratifed, and the nominal maintenance of the con- stitution of 1852 rendered revolution impossible. It is, therefore, greatly to be regretted that this wise nd prudent course should suddenly pe checked.

The testimony of Mr, Oscar Mason, secretary to the photographic section of the American Institute, was very interesting, es- pecially at the close of yesterday’s proceedings, where from the dimerence of light on one of Muuler’s pictures he came to the conclusion that tt represented two pictures, made at different times, with different light and by mechanical means. Throughout his testimony nearly every one of his statements created a sensation among the numerous crowd of Spiritualists present in the court room, and the defendant blushed occasionally and at some answers the flush would hurriedly beam his face as if the statements were deeply affecting him. ‘The following 1s the testimony in detail:— “Mr. Gerry said he was instructed that the defence desired the privilege to call an additional witness. On behalf of the people he had no objection. Mr. Townsend requested to be permitted to ask those who had made affidavits in this case a few questions. One of them was called upon the stand before he wasin the case, and he desired to interro- gate him. He did not think that anything material would be elicited; still he would like to examine him, if there was no objection. Mr. Gerry objected. When he made the sugges- tion that the people had no objection to the exami- nation he understood that the defence had some witness who had not already veen examined. The grave political mistake. e have witnessed the fall of many governments because they ran counter to the evident feeling of the country; we know 01 none that have fallen for yielding to the legitimate de- mands of the population, If the liberal Wes parté of 1828 and 1829 had been in office in 1830 it would, no doubt, have made itseit unpleasant to King Charles X., but it would have saved his dynasty. As regards the government of Louis Philippe, there was a large party in 1847 whica Was anxious for réform, Whether these reforms were good or bad we shall not inquire into, but they could not be worse than the revolution of 1848, When we bear in mind vhat King Louis Philippe preferred risking his throne to accepting as Presi- dent of the Council of Ministers M. Odiilon Barrot, a liberai-minded man and a staunch friend to his dynasty, we experience a feeling of awe at the im- portance one man’s will assumes when" it comes within the whirl of the torrent of daily events. Of course, if Louis Philippe had pineot when the danger was over there would ave been no lack of fire-eaters, who would have reproached him with having been deficient in energy; not having fallen into the abyss, they would have denied its existence. Are these reflections ap- plicable to the present state of things? We fear they are; We fear that unere is in the government a large party determined on “making vigorous elections;’? the sugyestions and compromuses of the tiers partt are disdainfully rejected; the administration is pre- paring for the election as though it were embark. on @ crusade. ‘Ihe oiticial candidateships are raise to the rank of an institution; the danger of identtiying the empire with the return of Mr. Peter over Mr. Paul is not perceived by those adininistrative wiseacres. “If you vote for M.

The defence had already enjoyed extended scope during the cross-examination, and he was therefore opposed to beginning the matter over again. Mr. Townsend did not wish to be understood as making the application as a matter of right; for, if the counsel for the prosecution objected, he could not urge it. Judge Dowling said there was no objection to an- other witness being called who had not yet been ex- amined. The several persons referred to were asked by himself if there were any further question to be asked, and he was repiled to in the negative. When Marshal Tooker went on the stand he (Judge Dow- ling) asked whether there was anything further to be elicited, bus he was toid that the cross-examina- tion had been exnausted. Under the circumstances the examination must take its regular course. » Mr. Townsend—Then we rest our case here.

He repeated and explained the several methods by which the pictures could be taken as he had described. He exhibited four photographs displaying the so-called spirits, and which were taken by witness since Friaay, by the first process already mentioned. Those pictures could be taken without the knowledge of the sitter, in the same manaer as any feat of jragiery or leger- demain was performed by sleight of hand. The only way to detect the trick was to hold the hands of the Operator, and then one would be certain to know where they were.
