The Revue des Deux Mondes of Paris, Just issued, gives @ classified account of the utopias chiefly in vogue among the combined trades of France, and traces them to certain precursors which arose during the revolutionary period of 1848, and were sup- pressed by the stern regime of the coup @’ztat. One of these systems is entitled “social liguida- tion,” and Proposes to expropriate every Proprietor, ‘whether of land or of capital, giving him, as an in- Gemnification for his losses,a bond for the amount on the national earnings.” The communists, so-called, are divided into three classes; according as the property of individuals should be confiscated to the State, or to cer. tain groups of eitizens, which wolfia be constitutea Ike Arab ttib:s, or, thirdly, should be equally divided among all the units or families of the French population.

In semt-ofliclal regions a great success is anticipated, and neariy seven millions of eicctors are expected to vote inthe affirmative, The finan. cial world would seem to share in that expectation, as the funds continue to rise and the rente has reached a point not attained by it for a considerable length of time. Bets are mace freely that the gov- erpment will optain s!x million and a half of votes, The calcu'ation 1s, that out of a total of 10,360,000 electors inscribed, there will be about 1,500,000 ab- stentions from indifferenc=; 1,000,000 from other motives; and $00,000 to —- 900,000 noes, According to that hypothesis, the ma ority would number from six to seven millions of adherents, But the advanded democratic organs, on their side, affirm unhesitatingiy that the vote will prove a great triumph for the repulican cause end a bitter disappolntment to the supporters of the Napolcouic dynasty.

Radicn! Comdinations—Power Over Politics and Capitel. [Par's (April 19) correspowdence of Pall Mail Gazette.) Yestciday I promised to rend you some of rules of the Association Internationale des Traya ley taken from ihe inted stata handed to me by the secretary, To show how thorougily democratic the society is, take the following rule:— “Seeing that it is not dignificd that a sicety of working men should admit of the monarchical and arbitrary principle of electing a president—though the president should have no power—purely honor- ary distinctions being contrary to democratic ideas, the Congress invites all the sections and working societies aMulated to the International Society to voiish the office of president.” Another rule says, ‘All newspapers containing attacks against the association should be immediatejy seit to the General Council of the respective sections.” Looking at tne tone of some ot the resolutions which fo!low, ii 18 probabie that the sections have made a tolera- ble coliection of hostile criticism, At p: 13 one finds:—“The Congress declares that the society has the right of abolishing private property in land, and making the soil common property.” Farther on the question of resistance is deait with in this manner:—“The 1s of opinion that. all working men should employ them-elves actively in creating societies of resistance in the different trades. By See as the societies are formed, it invites the sections and federal groups or central councils to give notice of the same to the societies of the same profession, $0 a8 to lead to the forma- tion of international unions of trades. These federa- tions will be bene, to collect all the information which may interest their seepeuare industries; to agiee upon measures to be adopted tu common; to regulate strikes, and to labor for their success, while waiting for wages to be replaced by the federation of free producers.” ‘The Paristan section of the International Asoocia- tion has just held a meeting, which, strauge to say, looking at the first rule noticed in vhts letter, was aes over by citizen Variin, assisted by citizens Robin and Ayilal. This waa the fitst general as- sembly of the sections, and more than 1,290 mem- bers were present in the Rue de Flandres, Citizen Varlin opened the proceedings with an address which may be thas summarized:— ‘The freeing of working men should be the labor of workingmen., Wo should sno longer put faith. In. those men who, up to the present time, have soothed us with vain romises in order to obtain our votes, and who on obtain- ing power, have deserted and betrayed ns.

It may not be amiss to add a few extracts from a Manifesto put forth by the workmen of Paris at the Ume of the frst strike at Creuzot, in a document which shows pretty clearly their tendencies and doctrines:— All workmen of Paris (anya thie proclamation) tend more and more to form one vast federation of fellow-laborera or- ganized ina blerarchy and having at their head » Fesponaible Ministry, whose it 2 resists the gneroachmante, sential | and | to Sater toto pnt oar mm wt t.

Detach- ments forthe coast service, gunboats, school and surveylog ships, torpedo trials, &c¢., will alone em- ploy irom four to five hundred men, so that durin, the coming summer nearly the whole of the navul force will be put in requisition, In order to exercise a large nomber of men in as short a time as possible, the crews of the ships of War will be mercased beyond their normal strength, Thus the iron-clad frigate Kronprinz, which is but for thirteen officers and 872 mea, Will carry not less ‘than 600. seamen.

The Story of a Poor Giri in the Great City= How Law is Administered wy Police Juse ticesThe Friends of an Honest Judge. On Sunday night last a young girl named Mattle Alore was on her way home about half-past ten in company With two otirer girla of her own age, when @ man, went up and walked beside her in Bowl- ing Green place. She requested to be left alone, When the man—a fellow named Stephen McGrath—pushed her down into a basement and attempted to violate her person, She screamed for help and managed to get away from him after he had kicked and cuffed her severely, But again he caught up with her, and on her again refusing to submit to him be beat her until her cries brought a policeman, who arrested the man, and the party went to the station house, where the girl made her complaint and was locked up for the night. Tne girl was then told to go home and up- pear the next morningjat the Tombs Police Court ‘at seven o'clock. She slopt over her adventure, and early Monday morning appeared at the Tombs a8 she was bid. When she entered @ number of McGrath's friends were talking to Judge Hogan, Wilo Bat on the bench. ‘Tue girl made her complaint and the learned Judge took her into # private room and remained closeted with her for fifteen minus They then reap- peared, the girl immediately withdrew her charye, Uhe case was dismissed and McGrath was liberate All this seemed queer, and a repoiter proceeded to investigate the facts, Captain Speight knew noihlag about it, but, having obtained the address of the girl, the poe went down Broalway toward the luca- tion of her residence, No. 1 Whitehall street, After a tiresome seaich in squaild tenements the Feporter found Miss Alore, aud in answer to tie 1ogu ries Pro un aed she gave a clear and succinct account of the whole matter. The girl’s statement was as follows :— “T was coming home from my aunt’s on Sunday night, when this man tirew me down and hurt me severely here (pointing to her hip). 1 screamed and he kicked me, when a policeman came up and arrested him. The next morning I went to the Tombs Court, which was crowded With McGrath's friends. Mr. Hugan took me into a Toom alone with him and said the man seemed very sorry for what he had done and would make it up tome. I told him that as jong a31 did not get into trouble I should be satisiied. Mr. Hogan toil me there was no danger of my getting into trouble uf I didn’t make any charge. So after tulking to bom fifteen minutes I tesoived not to make a charge, Mr. Hogan acted very geutiemaniy towards me. tL was then taken into another room where the officer was and he told Mr. Hogan all about it, Then I went into court and McGrath's friends crowded around me and gaid that if I made a charge McGrath would go to the State Prison, and that every time I went into the street L should be insulted and abuse... ‘This frightened me, and when they said they would poy for the clothes that McGrath had torn oi my back I spose ye bits Gad rage then Re has egged pardon gi as brought one: 0 my imother to pay for ny Clotids 4 Bi nd eoutt oft ntleman gave me five dollars, and auother one ve dollars, so that I should say nothing, Since then I have been let alone, and that’s all I want’? SUNCIDZ IN NEW JERSLY, A Man Takes His Own Life Through Melan- choly. The inhabitants of Reaville, Hunterdon county, N.J., were thrown into the wildest state of excite- ment last Sanday night by the announcement that Joseph Runkle, an old and respected resident of the place, had “shufled off this mortal coil’ by comritting suicide. The news spread rapidly, and by seven o'clock P. M. a large crowd had assembied around the premises of deceased to leah the parilculars of the tragedy, Mr. Runkle buried his wie a few weeks ago, and ever stace this event he has exhibited ip his conduct a a of melancholy and low-spiritedness that painful to witness, Last Week he catlec upon his lawyér, to whom he gave instree- tions that all his buslaéss Gtuirs shold be properly adjusted before the ist of May. On Sunday morning he ieft his home, liaving made no remark as to where he was going or when he proposed to re- turn. AS he had not got home at dusk his house- keeper became alarmed, and immediately communi- catea her fears about the old gentieman’s safety to some neighbors, remarking at the same time that deceased had behaved rather strau, ely during the Previous few days, A search was immediately in- stituted, and the body was found nging: by the neck, having been apparently dead for several hours. A justice of the peace was immediately notified and an inquest held, resulting In a verdict that deceased came io his death “by self-strangulation.”” THE BLOOMINGDALE MURDER, The Evidence Closed and the Summing Up Commenced. Judge Bedle’s presence being necessary in the Morning at the opening of the Hudson county courts, the Nixon murder trial at Paterson was not resumed yesterday until two o’clock in the afternoon. There was @ large crowd in at- tendance, it being understood that the sum- ming up would be commenced some time during the afternoon. No very material evidence was elicited, although four witnesses were examined. The de- fgnce was considered very feeble. Nixon's exuber- ce Of Teeling seemed to have received @ check, and his cheek was more blanched and lis lance betrayed more nervousness than before. Baring the pathetic retiearsal of the horrible tragedy and the references to the fatherless family of the murdered man his eye became somewhat watery; but when the prosecutor was through the prisoner turned to his counsel with a peculiar, know! ne grin, a8 much as to say, “Wiat a fuss he made.” During the summing up of the defence the prisoner’s wite caine in and had @ conversation with him, whish caused no little sensation among the audience. The summing up was not conciuded when the court adjourned, The case will be closed to-day. THE VESSEL OWNERS’ ASSOCIATION, A meeting of the Board of Directors of the Vessel Owners?
