THE NATION TRANQUIL Paris, May 17, 1874, President MacMahon has accepted the resigna- *tlon of the De Broglie Cabinet and has iotrusted 0M. Goulard the formation of'a new Ministry, “which is expected to be completed to-morrow. M. Goulard, on accepting the Premiership, de- yClared his policy would be to carry the constitu. ‘tional bilis through the Assembly and complete ‘the organization of MacMahon’s powers. A COMPOSITE CABINET PROBABLE. It ts reported that M. Goulard is forming the new government from the Right Centre and the con. gervative portion of the Left Centre, M. Magne and others of the late Ministry will @robably be retained in office. The latest advices from Versailles mention the ‘llowing arrangement of the portfolios of state:— M. Goulard as Minister of the Interior. Count Chaudordy, Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Magne, Mimster of finance. M. Mathicu-Bodet, Minister of Public Works. ML Desseilligny, Minister of Commerce. M. Desjardins, Minister of Education. General Bertaud, Minister of War. CITIZAN OPINION OF THE CRISIS. The opinion is generally expressed that the Yegitimist partyin the Assembly, by its vote of Friday, committed political suicide. It is asserted that their policy was inspired trom Frohsdorf. The division between the Moderate and Ex- treme Right renders probable an alliance betweeu the former section and the conservative wing -of the Left Centre. A new majority may thus be constituted which will support the incoming gov- ~ernment and enabie it to go on with the execution of the programme of the Septennate and bring about the speedy adoption of the constitutional “ills, It is not thought that there ts any immediate (Prospect of a dissolution of the Assembly. *MERUBLICAN DEMAND FOR A PARLIAMENTARY DIS- SOLUTION. The republican journals strongly urge the imme- «diate dissolution of the Assembly, which they de- Clare “powerless to constitute anything.” THE ROYALIST POLICY.

The Chilian authorities still insist that the steamer was lost in Chilian waters, and that the Captain was responsible to the tribunals of Chil. Captain Hyde appealed to the Supreme Court at Santiago. In_ reply to the protest of the British Minister, the cnillan Minister of Foreiyn Affairs stated that he could not meddle with the judicial atiairs of the coantry.

Last Night’s Concerts. Mile. Ostava Torriani, who did such valuable service during the late season of the Italian opera under the Strakosch direction, tcok a formal leave of the New York -public last nignt at Steinway Hall, Although the audience was notably email, many of the selections and the artists were ex- ceedingly attractive. The fair béndficiaire sang in her very best style the grand aria from ‘Der Freischtitz” and Gounod’s “Ave Maria;” and Mme, Clara Perl was heard with pleasure in the ballad, “1 Cannot Sing The Ola Songs.” Both artists united ina very excelent rendering of the “‘Quis est homo,” from Rossini’s “Stabat Mater.” Wieniawski contributed the magic of his violin to the enter- tainment, giving the andante ana Jinale of Mendels- sohn’s melodious concerto as only such an incom- parable artist can render it. Mr. J. N. Pattison played the lovely andante irom Henselt’s piano concerto with such an entrain, finish and warmth of expression as to excite a feeling of regret that this great work should not have been heard in its entireity for years with such faultless inter- preter. A tenor, named Arigotti, failed to make an! Javorable impression with ‘a romance by M, Rembielinski, although that was the fault of the singer and not of tha composer, and the grand prayer in the first act of “Lonengrin” received inhuman treatment. ‘The initial concert of the summer at Terrace Garden last night, under the direction ot Mr. Her- mann Grau, Was 4 favorable commencement of the season. The house was crowded and the enthu- siasm, especially over Mile, Di Murska’s artistic renderiug of the shadow song in “‘Dinorah,” was of the heartiest kind. The same artist also sung Benedict's variations on “The Carnival of Venice’ and took part in the Miserere scene from “Il Trova- “tore.” Messrs. Habelmann and Leimann and a fine orchestra under the direction of Mr. A. Neuendorff assisted the Hungarian Nightingale. Musical and Dramatic Notes.

M, v1 American Ttaly. 3 Bohemia + 602 Professor Cyrus Northrop, of New Haven, spoke of the vaiue of an elevated and Christian literature for the promotion of the Gospel, and for suppiant- ing the sensational, immoral and anti-Christian issues of the secular press. Value! The word was inadequate, utterly inadequate. What was @ Chris- tian literature? One that brought Christ to the hearts of men. But who was Christ? A poor man, who taught His bd quietly for two years and was then crucified. Ah! Christ did not teach these ople afew simple lessons only; but he incul- cated in their hearts tne doctrines of Christianity and told them to preach the Gospel to ali the world, The latter duty they could ouly fulfil BY MEANS OF THE PRINTING PRESS, and it was this very press ‘which bad sent a pois- onoug sticam of literature over the country. So long as men had made it fashionable to sneer at God there was great need of an antidote. They needed a society like this, Let them go out on the | rairies of the lilinois and consecrate them to man good, and go let tuis society conquer new territories and still win men over to Christ. ‘Ins society had never sought to preach a sectarian brist, but always the one eternal, unchanging Christ. He bade it a hearty wodspeed for the future, and leit confident that it would always mest squarely and tairly the so-called intiaelity of this age. The Charch jor which Jesus died would live on when tne foundations of the earth were already crumbling away. Rev, Kobert 7. 8. McArthur, of this city, spoke of the personal efforts for the salvation of souis as called out and assisted by the publications of the American ‘fract society. He said the personal, direct denunciation of ungodliness was but rarely found, because Christians were conscious of certain inconsistencies in their own religious lives. ‘There Were men in this society, however, who, ke Christ, were willing TO PREACH FROM MOUSE TO HOUSR, from heart to heart. instance. dir.

The minister had not this advantage, for ho did not know the objections and could, therelore, not remove them. Now tue printing prens anticipated the preacher every- ‘where and the audience was able to know before- hand all the arguments which the most learned or eloquent minister could bring forth. The sermon nowadays was written for the newspapers and tor | out-of-town readers a8 much as lor the congrega- tion. This clearly showed the great necessity ior the work which the Tract Society was doing. It ‘Was true that books alone had not effected many conversions and that personal efforts were aiso necessary to accomplish this object. They must send with the books the loving voice of men in- spired by God, and then success would be certain. Rev. Jobn Hail said only rew had any idea of the amount of literature which was disveminated and which was colored in hostility to the truth. If those who sold this infidel literature were known as infidels most of them would stand aghast at tne naomber of the cnemies of Curist, There must, therefore, be a corresponding bide of hterature rvaded by the spirit of Christ'to counterbalance he infidel influences referred to. But why | not leave the publication of tracts to be regulated bd he slaw supply and demand? ‘bis question had been {re- quently asked, The answer was that the evil was natural to men. It was eminently gratifying to know that the machinery of tie at society ‘was in admirable order, and that it did not fail to attain its object. An agreeable circumstance was also that Presbyterians, Methodists, Episcopalians and all other evangelical sects were united in this great and glorious work. by the choir, and, after ad- An anthem was sung dresses by Rev.

A walking match was arranged In Jersey City between Daniel Barbey and George Haveman, to Newark and return, on Saturday afternoon at five o'clock. Mr. Haveman gave Mr. Barbey half an hour’s start; but before the hour of starting he asked Mr. Barbey if he would not take a quarter Of an hour instead of half an hour. This Mr. barbey rerused to do, which had the effect of discouraging Mr. Haveman, and when the time for starting strived both pedestrians appeared Qt the corner of Montgomery and Green streets. Mr. Barbey started up Montgomery strect at a very lively gait amid the applause of the specta- tors. When the time arrived for Mr. Haveman to Start he was not to be foand, having not even in- formed his referee of his witharawal.

You will, perhaps, allow mé to give my version of the affair. Prisoner John Clarke was arrested by Woolsey and Walling, Headquarters detectives, and takem vo the New street police station, betore Sergeant Thompson, charged with embezzlement. Whem the sergeant in question ordered the peisoner te his cell he omitted to give the usual order te search the prisoner to see whetner he had concealed weapons, valuables, upon him. as doorman, placed him in a cel! id alew min- utes afterward he called out to me to stow away some jewelry until he was bailed. ‘The articies consisted of @ diamond breastpin, gold watch and cel which ne told me contained ‘ticies: ring, and a par money, but I did not open it. [ pnt the altogether in one 9 behind the coal of sighf. Several days afterward he was Court and I went to look for the valuables then for the first time, but foand that they had oeen re- moved from their place of concealment, being stolen, undoubtedly, by some of the ofiicers or loagera, I never saw the articies from the time [ deposited them in their hiding place. If Sergeass Thompson had the prisoner to be searched by the detectives above mentioned I should not have lost my position on the police, which I have now held for three and a oat ook during whiel time I have not had a single plaint made against me, ladmit that I made a mistake in not handing the things entrusted me by the prisoners bat I emphatically deny that I stole the Valuables that Clarke entrusted me with. I trust, in jeguen. you will publish this. W. GEARY, Ex-Doorman of the New street police station, THE EAST RIVER DEAD.
