NEW YORK HEKALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 31, 1871. ¢an do what thoy please with the reconstruc- tion acts, and to that end it does not matter jhe worth of a straw whother they are logal or not—if it be decided to repeal thom they will be ropealed; if itis not, they will not be. Itis, perhaps, a question whether they would be repealed if the demoorats obtain Power; for there aro as many domoorats, or those who may vote with thom at’ the next Presidential election, in favor of not disturbing dead issues as there are of those who wish to revive the controversies of 1868. Oa tho subject of negro suffraze Geveral Blair says the States which have adopied ii do not pro- pose to revoko it, and it should not be a causo of diiference among democrats, bocause, among other things, ithas not accomplished the object of those who impossd it, which was, to give them the contro! of the South. “The ‘contest is not,” says Goneral Blair, ‘to take away suffrage from ihe negroes, but to Preserve that wise distribution of the powers of the government without which all suffrage ds but = mockery.” The Presidential cam- paign is thus beginning gradually to open. It will be interesting to ascertain what course the Southern press and people will take in regard to these moderato views of the Mia- souri Sonator. ‘fhe Senate Vote on iir. Suwners Domingo Revolutious. The vote in the Senate on Mr. Sumner's St. Domingo resolutions appoars at first sight to be a significant triumph for the administration party; but when we look at all the circum- stances, and at the fact that fifteen Senators were absent or not voting, a different impres- sion is given. The vote was 39 to 16. In the minority were four republican Sonators, and two of them—Sumncr and Schurz—the Aobilles and Ajax of the radical party in that body. It could not be oxpected that the greater part of the republican Sonators would all at once turn round -and abandon the Presi- dent. The strength of the argument through- out was with the opponents of Gencral Grant’s St. Domingo policy, and the sympathy of the public, both in the galleries of the Senate and outside, was uadoubtedly with Mr. Sumner ‘and Carl Schurz. In fact, it was such a doubt- fal triumph that there is little probability that the administration and its friends in Congress will venture to press or bring up again this session the St. Domingo business. If General Grant be wise he will drop the subject and — hig friends to do the same. on ‘Personal Tptelligeqoe. St. ” General Q, A. Johnson, of Sopp, is sojouining at ‘the Astor House. 9 = Tuago G. T.

OBITVAR. Tho Queen of sweden and Norway. A cavle telegram announces the death of Wil- helmine Frédérique Alexandrine Anne Louise, Queen of Sweden and Norway, of whose serious iil- ness the reader had previously been informed, she Was born at tne Hague on the Sth of August, 1823, and was the daughter of Frederick William, Prince of Holland, and uncle of the present King of Hol- land. The deceased Queen was, consequently, a Princess of Orange and a member of the House of Nassau. Shc was married to the King of Sweden and Scrway, then the Prince Royal, on the 1eth of June, 1850, and on the Sist of October, 1661, gave birth toa daughter, the Princess Louise Josephine Eugenie, who was married in July, 1869, to the Prince Royal of Denmark. This was her only child, and unless the King marries again and has fret (he is ea en. -five years of age) the crown of weden and Will, on his death, descend to brother, Oscar Frederick, Duke of Ostrogothia, £ ao one of his son&, In this connection it may not be amiss to remark that all the members of the of fe faintly of Sweden and Norway are cousins mperor Napoleon, the mother of the present having Maes @ daughter of Prince Engéne verwards Duke of Leutchtenvurg.

It i9 not my fault if the events which form the subject of this letter are not already known to your readers in New York, as 1 forwarded a narrative of them by telegraph yesterday evening immediately after witnessing them. This afvernoon, while 1 was experiencing that degree of satisiaction which an active correspondent tcels when convinced that he has succeeded in outstripping all competitors in correctness of information and rapidity of transmis- sion, @ dapperly uniformed official of the telegraph ofice handed me a despatch inviting me to attend at the office to receive repayment of the money I had disbursed for my aespatch (No. 61), which, in accord- ance with article No. 20 of the convention, had been annulled by superior orders. THZ HERALDS DESPATONES STOPPED BY THE FLORENCE AUTHORITIE3. I felt greatly disappointed, knowing that my effort to supply a novel topic for breakfast table talk ta New York had faijed, but Iset out directly for the telegraph Office co ascertain the why and wherefore of so simple a es) acch as that which I subjoin having beta burke: by thé government authorities, The clerk very politely restored me, my money, and, in reply to my inquiries, informed me that my despatch had been duly forwarded to Florence, whence & message had been received in return from the central oflice stating that the despaton, gould not be transinitted. On imy asking what the article No. 20 stipulated he told me that it reserved for the government the right of annulling any telegraphic message 1 objected to, Telegrams merely ay: ticipate by rapidity of comuaunteatlo pieces of intelligence which would euually reach the eye or ear of the public through the ordinary press. Therefore [ am surprised that the Florence govera- ment should have objected to such an epitome of undeniabie facts as that coatatned in the folowing despatch, the substance of whica is couflrmed by Gil the journals of this city:— THE REJECTED DESPATCH. “Rots In Jesuits’ church yesterday after Father Tommasi’s sermon; conflict renewed to-day between liverais and clericals; fgut on plazza; soldiers charged bayonets—dispersed the crowd; clericals Pursued inside church, disarmed, arrested; priest Callalti arrested at altar for insulting policemen; prisoners of both parties conveyed first to adjoining Altleri palace, thence this evening to police ofiice, amid hooting mob; Jesuits’ church and convent gates closed; great crowd collected; hostile demon- stration expected.’” THESE EVENTS were witnessed by a hust of people, including my- self, but as I have not been able to make them Known so rapidly a3 1 wished I will at least add some subsequent details, which will ald in their de- velopment, DOWN WITH THE JE3UITS. The individuals arrested ate nineteen in number, but the amount of sword sticks and lead-mounted sticks found in the Gesu church would sufilce to arm four times as many persons. In the early part ot the night no disturbance took place, but between nine and ten o'clock A TORCHLIGHT DEMONSTRATION was organized. Not more than 100 persons followed tie flag, which, by the by, was deluged with dirty water from the balcony of the Ingami palace, and their rallying cry was, “Down with the Jesuits!’ which they maintained persistently, even under tne Windows of Prince Humbert at the Quirinal Palace, TUR PEOPLE STILL EXCITED, This morning a numerous assemblage of persons collected on the Piazza del Gesu, about eleven o'clock, sermon time, but as the church was empty, and will probably remain ciosed for some time to come, there was no pretext for disorder, and the pa- trola of gendarmes and policemen, and the National Guards held in reserve in the Doria Palace would have sutticed te put down any disturbance that might have been contemplated. The celebrated Father Curcl preaches during Lent at the Church of St. Andrea delle Fratti. His sermons have excited, ona minor scale, the same emotion and effervescence ag those of Father Tommasi at the Gesu; conse- quently there were also uupleasant scenes in that neighboraood yesterday, the peopie inclined for a row waiting outside the church to hiss some noted adterents of the past régime. ‘One of these tndi- viduals only escaped a ducking in the ample foun- tain of Trev. by galloping off at racehorse speed up the Via Rasella. All these disturbances may be im- portant in their consequences, THE RIOT OF FRIDAY was only the consequence of an occurrence In tno Gesu church on the preceding morning. A lieutenant In the National Guards, Sigaor Santau, not entirely approving of the sentiments delivered by Father ‘Tommast tn his sermon, preferred leaving the church, and he probably gave some evidence of dis- Satisfaction, a3 he Was followed out and beaten by several zealous admivers of the reverend preacher's arguments. The crowd which collected before the ehureh on le morning was tuere avowedly for the purpose of making reprisals upon the pugna- cious portion of the congregation ag they came out, and it was fortunate that no serious mjuries wore inflicted either during the scuifle or on the forcible clearing of the piazza by the Woops. FUNRRAL MASS AT THE FRENCH CHURCH. Yesterday there was a funeral mass at the ¢rench Nattonai chureh for the victims of the late war. 1t was at first expected that the German representa- tive, Baron Taufairchen, might attend, as tue invita- tions had been sent round without any aliustons to nationality; but his Excelicney did not make his ap- pearance. The National Church of St. Louis des branyais ts a very rich establishment, as may be in- ferred from the fact that it has contribuied 100,00 franes to the national fund for paying the heavy war indemnity required by the ‘ussians. It con- tributed the same amount in silver utensils towards tie indemnity of 25,009,900 francs which Pope Pius VIL. had to’ pay to Napotcon I, after the peace of Tolentiuvo, THE POPH HELPING FRANCE.

TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD, Lonvon, March 30, 1871, I have received the following despatch from the New York Heratp special correspondent in Berlin, dated yesterday evening. Your correspondent telegraphs :— AN INTSLVIEW WITH BISMAROK. To-day I had an interview with Bismarck on the subject of the state of affairs in Paris, I was courteously received by the German statesman, who, in the preliminary conversa- tion, expressed his appreciation of the good sense and consistency displayed by the people and government of the United States during the war. TUE RED REBELLION NOT IMPORTANT. CorrEsronpeNt—Does your Excellency think that the events now transpiring in Paris are important? BisMarok—They are not important to the degree supposed by many. One would have thought that the public mind in Germany would have been much more engrossed by the rising and excesses of the reds than is actus ally the case. To the general public there are only two points to view when the matter is discussed. These are the possibility that the German troops may be detained in France by the rising longer than would otherwise have been the case, and, secondly, the point that the present state of Paris is a proof that Ger- man appreciation of the population of Paris is more correct than is beli d by neutrals, who considered the city | to bo the centre of oivili- zation, and regarded it as almost holy and fog sacred to bo touched by oes We barians, ME POLIOY OF GkRMANy. Corrgsponpent—What will be the policy of Germany during the present complications in France? BisMarck—That matter is as simple as pos- sible, In the eyes of German statesmen the reds now in possession of Paris are simply The government of M. Thiers is the only legitimate one, and as soon as the insur- gents transgress the terms of the Convention concluded between the legitimate government of France and Germany the Germans will treat them as rioters and disperse them by force of arms. As long as they do not trans- gress the treaty stipulations they will be left alone, rioters. NO DIRECT INTERFERENCE. CorrgsponDENT—Then there will be no interference in behalf of the legitimate govern- ment? BisMarok—Not directly; but facilities will be afforded the Thiers government in regard {o the concentration of troops at Versailles, The French authorities will be allowed to mas3 a much larger force there than it could according to the stipulations of the peace pre- liminaries. It is also likely that on direct application of the French government Ger- man aid will not be withheld, GERMANY'S INTEREST. CorrEsPponpENt—But is not Germany in- terested in the preservation of the government of M. Thiers? BisMaRoK—Only so far as the fulfilment of the conditions of peace is concerned. Cer- tainly the government of M. Thiers is the only one which gives guarantees in compliance with the stipulations of the peace prelimi- naries. WHEN GERMANY MAY HELP THE THIERS GOV- ERNMENT. CorresPonprnt—Did Germany send a mes- sage to the reds declaring that she would not interfere, but would maintain friendly relations towards them? f BrsmarcKk—Certainly not. A mistaken idea is prevailing in England as to the position of Germany toward the rioters of Paris. This is in consequence of the wrong translation of the letter written by General Schloheim and published in the Journal Oficiel. The letter said that so long as the Germans were not in- terfered with a passive attitude would be ob- served; but this passage was made to read that a “friendly attitude” would be observed”—a very different thing from what was really writ- ten, sent from Germany relating to the riots. Two were simply of a military charactor, and one of these—my own, addressed to Jules Favre—was also misinterpreted. Germany will never interfere in the inte There have been only three telegrams | short, | © In short, | of fes in that co: affairs of Franca, but all par! try must respect and observe tue peace stipula- , 7 Hons to the letter. If, in order to do thia, the legitimate government appeals for aid Ger many will probably extend it toa certain de= gree. Germany will also aid the government of France to enforce law and preserve order by relaxing the strict regulations of the peace preliminaries, Further than this Germanys will not go; in all else she will be passive, OUBA.
