Society arrested some days beture the plebisctte have been released from Mazes after having undergone an imprisonment of several months, The Kévew is highly indignant that the prisoners on leaving Muzas weie cited to appear next week before the Correctional Police, accused of having belonged to a secret society. If, says that paper, it was necessary for the magistrates to have forty days to ‘study the pices and bulid-ap the accusation, how can they expect the accused to prepare they defence wituin less than a week? Itis impossible to discover any other motive for these strange proceedings except the desire to “take from the accused the Soarantes ofthe jury. The law recently voted by the Corps Légtslatif, and which is now submitted to the Senate, gives to the jury the power of dealing with the crimes of secret societies. Within fifteen days, or three weeks at most, the law will be probably promulgated. It was necessary to hasten matters, so that the affair might still be brought before the correctional judges, Ac- coraing to the Revew it was to attain this end, which pa @ Political affair to Leong Plea Corps Légisiattf to be incompetent, y have hastentd to cite the accused without the least delay, after having made thom languish for an en- tire month io the cells at Mazas. POLICE—CKIME AND THE SUBSTRATA. Some few nights since the police visited the arches of the Pont dArcole, uncer Witieh they found a plen- Uful harvest of ragamufins, ‘fhe night before last the police made a second razzia, and gathered another plentiful supply of falien humanity, known vo the police as Les Hirondelies, Tie inhabitants of the bridge arches are of a class no one woulda from choice care to meet on a dark night, being chiefly composed of men who have been condemned by the tribunals. When the police made their appearance the gang was about to enjoy in the open air a first rate but mexpensive suppe! Neither wines nor “iqueurs were wanting. Ail had been stolen from an eating house keeper near the large market While the prisoners were being subsequentiy amined at the Prefecture de Police information was brought that an individual, “well dressed, but armed to the teeth with pistols, daggers and other weapons, was saunter about the Piace du Chatelet.”” Two agenis were sent to arrest him, and witiin a short time the rain: vulating arsenal” was brow to the Prefecture. He underwent the agreeable ickling to which [ was subjected on being arreste.: and the following arms were found upon him: a large pistol loaded to tie muzzic; @ pair of smailer joaded pistols, a poignard, @ life-preserver, with dagger combined; a tife-pre- server and poignard, called a casse-téte poignard, a Jong crowbar, a box of caps and two small bottles of vitriol, It turned out on inquiry that this essence of life-taking was a member of a good tamily and had inherited a comfortabie fortune, witch he con. trived to dissipate in ten years, At present he is without apparent means of support. In his pocket the police found three francs only, but it appears that he contrives to spend on an average at tne hotel where he resides eight fra per day. On en- tering the Prefecture he was immediately recog- nized by one of “Les Hirondelies,” and th “Swallow” gave the account that follows:— He was reposing himself under the trees of the Place du Chatelet last Monday night, when he was accosted by ‘the perambulating arsenal,’ who asked him if he wished to take part 1n an affair. ‘The “Swallow” answered in the afitrmative, aud then his interlocutor told him that he much disiiked a femate assistant in a haberdasher’s shop who was possessed ot 8,000 francs, There was a good affair for both, and the arsenal gave the Hirondeile rendezvous for the following night. When they again met the for- mer continued to enlighten his companion, They would call on the unlucky merctére, throw a botite of vitriol in her iace and rob her. There was { another affair of more importance besides carrlages returning across the Bots de Boulogn every evening, and which contained often as mucli @s 7,000 francs.

Ollivier.” It was ry as truth never accepted, but refused, by the Minister, he has refused all other decoration’. ‘The order of Nobie Ladies of Span was then offered to Madame Ollivier and she accepted it, The Presse declares that she should divest herself of this order if the convention signed by her husband was biamed, as it should be.

Lonpos, June 20, 1870, Have you ever been in Englangy Yes; several times, Have you ever been at Hurlingham? Never, Then by your leave we wiil go there together to-day. ‘The English “‘swell”—that Is, the English male netng of the upper ten thousand—has many fauls, nota few of which have been from time to time chroni- cled in these letters to the HERALD. But he has also his virtues; and chief among these, as I hold it, 1s Intense love for everything like field sporis, In fact, no man may now pretend to be a “swell,” even of a minor degree, with- out being able to ride to hounds more or less well; without being able, at any rate, to talk of the science of yachting, and without having some annual practice in the art of shooting. Itis to this latter category of his amusements that £ propose to confine these remarks vo-day; for Hurlingham is the headquarters of pigeon shooting, and to Hurling- ham we are going this hot forenoon. Mind, 1don’t approve of the sport of pigeon shooting in all its details; but we must take the world as we find it, and Hurlingham is only a part of that world, which T shall endeavor to describe to your readers. READY. We are, let us suppose, in the drive of Hyde Park, a littlé before two o'clock, the luncheon hour that disperses one and all of the fashionable crowd on horseback and in carriages, to seck that refresh- ment which is really an early dinner, but which they elect to call by the name of “luncheon.” Just before the general break-up takes place you will observe a mail phaeton, driven by a young man clad in a light-colored overcoat and a “wide-awke,”’ or “pot? hat. By his side is @ younger man, similarly clad, and on the rumble behind is a wird gentleman, dressed in exactly the same way, who shares the seat with @ very solemn-looking groom. ‘The turnout draws up for a few minutes at the en- trance of Rotten Row, and the driver calls to two or three of the fashionable crowd, who Join him, laugh and talk with him, and seem to enjoy vastly some tale which the gentleman behind is telling them all.

In the gar- den we find @ grotto, in fountain, trees, flowers, two summer ) : in Russia. On all four sides are seats aud benches, ‘This garden is, of course, in theopen air. At the end of the garden nearesi Sait alley is an exhibition of church bells, some of which are very large and fine. Passing on to the subdivisions of the division we find ores, metals and aruicles manufactured from them, ranging from the heaviest cannon to a kitchen stove. The exhibitors in this division ave the Mtnise wry of War, the Mining Department, and different companies and singte own { foundries and iron mines, ‘This division merits special attention, as the jron and coal of Russta are remarkable in qualiiy and quanuty. in another subdivision the most striking object is a truncated pyramid representing the amount of the gold production of Russia. Next, the railroad cars and locomotlves, as well as carriages of evgry description and vartety. ‘There are some remarkable models of heavy calibre non and a large piece of eleven-inch trov plating, pierced through and through by a ste olnted ball.

Around the sides are placed a great variety of small Taachines, models of ships and steamers, model of un American ferry boat, sewmg ma- clues, &c. At the entrance are two very in- teresting modeis—one of the Odessa harbor, which 4s entirely artificial, the other of an antliracite coal yoine in couniry of the Don Cossacks, Giving a hasty glance at the agricultural implements, we return through and pay particular — attention to the exhibition of iron, copper and malachite, be- longing to Mr. Demidory, as well as the exibition of iron in dire: jorms belonging to Mr. Putiulor. ‘The position of ,both is ou the right from the garden. Demidoft’s tron is from the Ural mountains. Mr. Putiloif 1s an iron founder of St. Petersburg, and has workea with great success in his trade, Tie Demidotr Works date from the time of Peter the Great, and thetr history 1s well Worthy of a separate letter. Leaving for future description the iron department, We cross to a division which is one of the most crowdedewith articles on exhibition of any in the Aniong these may now be men- work; leather, —_ o building. Soap, candles, chemicals, liquors, whis- key, brandy, matches—inany of the pi ots in this division are of excellent quality and presented witn much care and taste. At the corner is the collection of Central Astatic goods; opposite, those of the Caucasians, the latter of which is not yet arranged. The Museum of Russian art is to be opened the day after to-morrow, Making our way to the door we prepare to leave the Exhibition for the present day, buying at the door a copy of the Holy Evangelists in Russian, for the price of five copecks—a good, bound volume. At this price no one is allowed to purchase more than two copies, the object being wo give the Scriptures a wide circulation.

The Tory Protest Against the Laud Bill— What the Aristocrats Fear. In the English House of Lords the following protest has been entered against the Irish Land vil:— Dissentient:—Because some of the provisions of the bill areopposed to the just rights of property, and are admitted by its advocates to be unfit to be made the law in England and Scotland, and to be only justified tn Ireland on accouutof the existing relations between landlord and tenant in some paris of that country, which they consider exceptional and hope may be removed under the operation of this measure. Because it 1s proposed that these provisions, in- stead of being linposed for a limited period to mect an exceptional stute of things, are to be enacted permanentiy, and thereby appear to be established as principles which ought to exist by law at all umes between landlord and tevant; and any a tempt to repeal them, although the exceptional re: son for their introduction may haye passed away, will be attended with serious opposition aud discon- tent Because this enactment of them as principles is likely to lead to agitation for the extension of similar provisions to England and Scotland, in order that one system of permancnt law on the subject may be established throughout the United Kingdom, Dunsany, Malmesbury Moore (Drogheda), Kilmaine, ‘Templetown, Grinstead (Enniskillen), Maucheste’ Saitoun, for frst and Oranmore, Somerniil (Clanricarde), Saltersford (Courtown), Clements (Leitriin).

ART NOTES. First Summer Exhibition of tb Academy of Design. ‘The frst summer exlubition opened on Saturday, the 2d inst. Of course, as full an attendance as dur- ing the other seasons is scarcely to be expected; but, all things considered. it may be regarded as at least fair. Many of the art-loving public being out oftown, and many others. carefully avoiding any- thing like warm, indigerently ventilated rooms, @ rather small proportion is thus left to enjoy the op- portunity afforded them for studying and regarding works of art. Were pecuniary interests the only ones involved, the success of the exlibition might thus be considered as somewhat problematical; but there are 80 many others not less important that it cannot but be successful in some of its aims, ‘This shouid sufMice to encourage those concerney. From time to time during the season the accessions which may, and, it is to be hoped, will be received, will serve to maintain the interest of the exhibition, and to afford, as we have already proposed, an opportu. nity to arusts to exnibit their pictures, Sammer Is not the time exactly to expect much in the way of new work, to be sure; but for many, uofortunately, there is a law which cognizes no seasons and renders work at all times imperative, ‘The basis of the exhibition is good, and there 1s quite enough to bear careful ex- amination and study for some time to come, without any necessity for any change of material. It is much to be regretted that several of the betier works have been withdrawn aud some of the poorest left, Dat the changes are not altogether for the worse, and a number of very oreditable works have been added, which very materially enhance the yatue and interest of the exhibition. The additions com- prise some fifty odd pictures, several of which de- serve a special and more lengthy notice, which we propose to give them, A large number of these are either for sale or are in the possession of the painters, Which probably may be regard a3 an- other delicate way of expressing the same laportant fact. 478. “Deathbed of Daniel Webster.? Josep! Ames, A. The subject of thip pleture is, of course, far from a pleasing one. Such scenes, even invested with the interest of exceptional or remarkable cir- cumstances, are at best most painful, but with the prosaic detatis of our own time lose even that in- terest and seem unpleasant m the extreme. The painter, however, has done the best he could with the subject. There ts a sentiment throughout perfectly in harmony with the scene he representa. There is an element of sadness, of gravity in his color and general treatment, which 1s dignified and appropriate. The thought and feeling in the light centred inthe most important figure, the dying yan, and the shade deepening and saddening as the terest may be supposed to be lessened trom the central group, shows considerable power and genuine understanuing. 481. “Scene from Scott's Border Minstrel T. M. Joy. This work we have had occasion to notice before, and can only repeat that the composition ts, in general, very good, d the action very vivid ant harmonious. Its vaiw historical work is quite beyond question, and it must prove a most mnterest- Ing study as well tothe lover of art as to one inter- ested in the active life and romantic scenes of the times with which the sunject treats. “Young Lion in Central Par Abbot H.

A, FP. Bel. lows, N. A. There is a very delicate and pretty sen- timent underlying this work, which, popular and hackneyed as we might almost say it Is, is neverth less charming and appeals to every one. The pI ture represents a group in @ boat crossing @ river, on either side of which are high, deep-siadowed lulls. The shades of early evening have already commenced to darken the scene almost tmpercept- bly. Aman stands in the centre of the boat, playing on ahorn probably the familiar strains of “Home, Sweet Home.” A woman, his wife or amMauced, is leaning against his bosom. The other figures are ap» parently listening with eager, anxious Interest to the echoes from the dark shadows of the neighboring hills, One can readily picture the hero—and such he doubtiess would seem to be from the flags whose rents tell many a tale of narrow escapes and blood- shed and death—one can fancy the hero returning after years of absence, to the old, familar home and haunts of his yonth and boy- hood. Here nature is the same, after all his vicissitudes of danger and fortune, to wel- come him home again, and the voice of his worn Js brought back again over the waters, the great key- note to bis feelmgs and the whole scene—howe, sweet home, The figures, well grouped and drawn, are almost impercepiibly velled in the mist and evening shadows. The feeling of the picture Is very sweet and in perfect accord with the graceful and touching sentiment, which no one can fail to appre- ciate, Ithasthe sympathy of the behokler at the offset. That is already a great deal. This sympathy once awakened ts admirably kept up throughout the work and carries along with 1% the interest and feel- ings. “The Castle of Chilion.” 8. A.

This is one ofthe me t charnung additions to the former exhibition, aud would compensate itself for a vast amount of rubbish which it would seem like wasting ammunition upon to notice.
