How can a Chamber so spit updo any business in the way of constitut- ou may remark that in the present crisis no one talks about M. Thiers returning to power, though the veteran statesman went down pony to Versailles and voted against his old friend de Broglie. But M. Thiers has lost power in the Gbamber for several reasons. When he was over- thrown & year ago it was jound absolutely neces- sary to undo @ great deal he had done, and the situation is no longer thesame. The Germans are BO longer im the Jand, and the statu quo policy which he adopted would no longer suit the ardor of his radical supporters, soeaay he wouid be forced to go well to tne Left or well to the Right.

Batti ch Ay The Rumor that the Office Is Offered to Congressman Jewett, of Ohio—Inter- view With the Statesman in Wash- ington. WASHINGTON, June 4, 1874. A diversion In political Jife does not oiten relieve the monotony of a session of Congress, bu: a gen- uine one has come to Washington in the announce- ment that Congressman Hagh J. Jewett, of Colum- bus, Ohio, amember of the House Judiciary Com- mittee, and also a member of the Joint Committee on the Investigation of the District of Columbia Afairs, has been tendered the nomination of the Presidency of the Erte Railway Company in place of Mr. Watson, whose retirement will take place in a few weeks, Mr. Jewett has barred his doors of late for fear the defenders of-the District ring may rob his safe or successfully conspire to injure his reputation before Congress. It was with some timidity that your correspondent ventured under the circum- stances to advance on Mr. Jewett’s quarters, who albeit he is a democrat, yet resideth with Wormley, whose color is not an objection to his fame as caterer. Ploddin up the staircase, preceded one of Wormlsy’s countrymen, @ halt was called, and after a carelul survey of the premises your correspondent was admitted to the room of the democratic Congressman. Re- clining upon an elegant lounge, apparently at ease, the future President of Erie was discovered Treading the HERALD. Alter a brief dissertation on the weather, the glory of being a Congressman and how much better it was to delight in business than it was to revel in the halls of Congress, Mr. Jewett Givined the motive of the visit, and folding the HERALD carefully laid it on the table near the lounge and said:— 4 MORNING SURPRISE. “You cannot imagine what a pleasure it is to read the New York papers, espectaily the HERALD. ( have tound that paper so interesting that it has frequently wooed me from seen and the eariy hours of morn have found me reading its interest- ing news matter from all parta of the world. I can say that Inever read anything so wonder- ful as the paragraph in t0-day’s pa- per which alludes to wt prospects ior succeeding to the _ Pres fehoy, of the Erie Railway. It is trac 1 am tired of Con- ressional life. I do not know who wouldn’t be, 1, in addition to the duty of serving on the Judi- clary Committee, he must also act IN THE CAPACITY OF A DETECTIVE on an investigating committee; but that, you will say, has notbing to do with the report that vf chances for the office oi President o! the Erie roa are as good as anybody else’s. You know as much about it, if you have read the pavers, as Ido. As the board of directors will meet in a few week: their action will settle any existing doubt, an what they may dol do not know, Whether tne board, like President Grant, will elect a successor to the present incumbent without consulting the wishes of the party selected, I could not say, and that is about all I can say on the subject that a@ppears to me to be pertinent to your inquiry. OPINIONS OF MR. JEWETT'S FRIENDS. The remarks of Mr. Jewett were pleasantly spoken, and he only regretted that he could not give the informauon desired, Among his ‘riends here there is a strong convio- tion that when Mr. Jewett resigns his seat {n the Forty-third Congress it will be to accept the posi- tion of President of the Erie Railway, and this is based upon the statement of one who nas but re- cently been elected to the Presidency of the Penn-, sylvania Railroad. AN TMMENSE FORTUNE GIVEN TO PUBLIO UsEs. A Wealthy Gentleman Anticipates Death in the Disposal of His Estate. SAN FRANCISCO, June 4, 1874. The act of James Lick deeding the whole of his Property to tne public excites much comment.

MILWAUKEE, June 4, 1874, Judge Lawrence, attorney ior certain ‘ pond- holders of the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad, appeared before the United States Circuit Court at Madison to-day and appited for an injunction to restrain the Attorney General and the Railroad Commissioners from procera to eniorce the law of ast ‘winter and prevent the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad Company from operating under the law, ‘The Attorney General appeared and asked far time, Judge Drummond sald that pending the delay @ temporary injunction would be granted. The Attorney General said that under these circum. stances he would proceed with the argument at Onge before the matter was lully settled, instituting | AMUSEMENTS, Central Park Garden Concert. The classical night of the week, Thursday, drew @ large house to the favorite summer garden of the metropolis las: evening. Fashion, albeit. the chilly weather forbade any extensive exhibition of summer fabrics, was well represented on the oc- casion, 8nd hadiiués of vhe opera sat around the tables ilstening to the magic strains that enrich the mind with the garnered treasures of a century of music. The concert began with a march of Liszt (Huldigungs), a tribute of homage to some one of his royal patrons, which Mr. Thomas has made as familiar to New York ears asa nursery melody. Then the overture to “Fidelio,” the last or the four colossal works which Beethoven wrote a8 introductions to his only opera, was delivered by the band with that heartiness, “at homeness” And fervid expression that betokens perfect orches- tral playing. A lovely adagio religioso from Mendelssohn's “Hyman or Praise” followed, and Was interpreted with the delicacy of @ poet in an fdyl. A rude, biatant outburst of the brass in- struments ushered in the ‘liegende Hollinder” of Wagner, and in the selections jrom this early work O1 this now notorious opera writef there was little Mf any repose for a sensitive ear—only climax aiter ciimax, like Helion upon Ossa, Grand old Papa Haydp had the second part of the programme all to himself. His second symphony (Brietkopt and Haertel edition), in D minor—one of the Prince Esterhazy concert series—was given, and in it the best characteristics of the band came out in strong relief, Nothing could be more dainty and delicious than the rendering of tne lovely andante, and the minuet (it if not @ minuet in the strict sense of the word) was applauded to the echo. Such music nag @ healthy effect at these concerts, The greatest of all modern overtures, ‘William ‘ell,’ was next played, and was followed by a very clever, yet diffuse orchestration of the celebrated prayer irom. iPaarasiocns,s by Lux, the Bbeulah pam peser 3 r re spoken, and who wi nidoubtedly hate A oe Thomas, become popu- Jar on this aide of the Atiantic as an orchestral adapter. The new Vienna waltzes of Strauss are too well known to need @ word here, and rhomas’ orchestra has made the Tarentellalike “Salta- rello”’ of Gounod a household word in. New York, It wai entirely enjoyable concert, and the de- Meanor of the audience showed that the New York public can fill a summer garden for the sake of music alone. Theodore Thomas and his followers constitute the attraction at Central Park Garden, and the weather, which so materially affects thea- tres, seems to have no deleterious influence upon these concerts. Musical and Dramatic Notes. The Opera Comique, Paris, have revived Meyer- beer’s “Dinorah,”” The fecundity of Italian composers at the present day is astonishing. Five new operas, at last ac- counts, were to be produced at Naples. Adelina Patti essayed the role of Elvira in “Ernani” at Covent Garden, London, on May 26, with what success we are uot yet informed. Signor Oampanini sung the rdie of Lionel in “Martha” at Drury Lane, London, on May 28—the very role he is entirely unsuited for. What must Mr. Mapleson be thinking of ? Albani, the successful American prima donna in tho Italian opera company, Covent Gardena, London, seems destined by Mr. Gye to be a for- midabie rival to Nilison at the other house. Not content with her success as Ophelia in “Hamlet,” she has attacked Mignon without the fear of the Swedish Nightingale in her eyes. Albani seems to be the coming star for this country. Besides Miss Chariotte Cushman and Joseph Jefferson Messrs. Jarrett & Palmer authorize the announcement of the engagement of Mr. arid Mrs, Barney Williams for the next season at Booth’s Theatre, This popular couple have not appeared in New York city in over four years, and it is therefore to be presumed that a cordial reception isin store for them. it must not be supposed that tn all the time of their absence the Williamses have been unprofitably idle, for at a recent sale of real estate adjoining the government property at Fort Hamilton, L. L, Barney bought the entire offering for $39,000, for which he has since been tendered by speculators an advance upon this sum of $20,000, Tne annual benefit of Mrs. ¥. B. Conway takes place to-night at the Brooklyn Theatre, The pro- gramme comprises “Tne Stranger’ and “The Honeymoon ;” and, without any further extraor- dinary inducement,s it should attract a large audience. The general apathy of Brooklyn people during this season toward tne excellent theatrical entertainments provided for them by Mrs. Con- way proves, however, that only the good will that, she has acquired during her career in. Brooklyn will cause her yenefit to have substantial results. If this is @ tribute to the lady it is certainly one that is dearly bought. The Brooklynites should throng the Brooklyn Theatre to-night, and as.they ‘cannot empower Mrs. Conway by their presence on one night to run her theatre for an entire season, they should continually aid and encourage her in her effort to provide them with a theatre excelling most New York theatres in appearance and arrangement.

Inauguration of Governor Weston at Concord— A Grand Display on the Street—Speeches and Mutual Congratulations— The Inaugural Message. Concorp, N. H., June 4, 1874. To-day Governor Weston was installed as Gov- ernor of the State. Probably, in consequence of the democratic importance of the event, the city was gayly decorated, and, notwithstanding the rain of the early morning, thousands of people were out to witness the procession and honor the occasion. For three days the municipal authorities had been busy with the decorations, whieh were certainly of an extensive and costly description, The State House and grounds were especially at- tractive. Over the front entrance to the Park was 4 triumphal arch of flags, with the motto “Welcome Our Governor.” The facade of the State House literally fluttered with fags and many beautiful designs, tn- cluding @ large gilt eagle under a canopy of fags, together with streamers, shiclds and gallant knights in armor. From Pleasant street to Free Bridge road the street was lined with suspended flags, while most of the public butidings wore pro- fusely ornamented, ‘ After nine o'clock the weather cleared. Loaded trains arrived from various parts of the State, the locomotives in many instances bearing bunches of flowers, branches of blossoms and small flags. ARRIVAL AND WELCOME OF THE GOVERNOR, ‘The special train from Manchester, bringing Gov- ernor Weston and his staf, arrived at eleven o'clock. The twelve cars forming the train were filled to overflowing with the Amoskeag Vetcrans | and citizens of Manchester. The military and fremen and other bodies, to Join in the escort, had already assembled in Rail- road square, The delegation {rom Manchester, on stepping from the cars in the station, were met b; the Citizens’ Committee of Concord, Colonel C, Bailey, Chairman, and by Governor Straw and his | Council, and other distinguished officials and vis- ivors, On being received by the committee the new Caveries was addressed by Colonel Bailey as fol- jOws -— Srr—I have the honor, in behalf of the citizens of Con- cord, without distinction of party, to tender to you on Jour. arrival in this city a cord: and hearty welcome the Capitol of the State. You en selected, sir, by the voice of the people of New Hampshire to be their chief executive officer tor the year ensuing. ‘Thererore it has been ooth proper and just, upon your entrance into the city to assume the dutles of your oi- fee, that a public demonstration should be had your fellow citizens waich saall testity to you the high ‘esti- mation in which you are held by them, and who also be- lieve you possess 'in an emment degree those qualities laid down by Jefferson as necessary tor those who are called spon to Hil public office, “Is he honest, is he ca- pable t” These questions being happily renewedly answered in the affirmative by the “people of ‘the Old Granive State, they have come here to-day in great numoers to join with us m extending to Your Excellency their con- gratulations, and to congratulate each other upon. the choice for their chief executive officer of one in whom they have so much confidence, and for whom they have #0 much respect, to ex; ho that your administranon will g shed, like your previous one, in the expenditure of the public dent and wholesome legislation, patriotic action upon the public measures, and a jealous Togard for the growth and prosperity of the nobie old commonwealth, whose vast and varied interests are. about to be committed tor a season to your fostering care. In conclusion permit me again to bid you a hearty, cordial welcome, and ask you to accept the position as- signed you in thé programme arranged by the commit- tee of your tellaw citizens to commemorate in a fitting manner the day when you, and those who act with you, assume the cares and responsibilities of the government of the State. THE GOVERNOR'S REPLY. In response to the address Governor Weston Teplied as follows :— Tam ata loss to find words to express my thanks for your kind and cordial weicome. ‘There is no place so dear to me. save my own native city, as Concord. Here T have spent some of mny happiest years, mingling socially and in business with your people, and now to be so highl; honored by them, irrespective of party ties, dlls me with & deep sense of my obligations, which I tear I can never | repay. While remaining with you, however, or wherever I may be, it will be my aim and ambition to merit a con- tinuance of this confidence and regard. Again, gentle- men, [return to you, and through you to the citizens of Concord, my warmest thanks tor the courtesies tendered on this occasion. The procession, composed ofa number of military and fire companies and untform to the number of 1,000, started at half-past eleven o'clock, leaving pelnget square and passing up Freight to Main ree As the procession paased up Mainstreet the greatest eutnusiasm prevailed, the sidewalks and all availabie portions of the avenue and the puoiio bulidings being densely thronged with eager spec- tators, No rain feil and the weather was propt- tious, although the streets were quite muady. The procession passed through the principal streets, salutes being fred during its passage. ‘ne bright .untiorms of the military ana the elegant dress of the firemen, together with the numerous Sage and banners and the fine music, formed one of the most beautiiul pageants ever seen in New Hampsnire. The Governor was repeatedly con- tulated, apd at varions places aloug the line of march ladies presented him with handsome bou- quets of fowers. Aiter a long march through the pemeipat thoroughfares the procession haited in mt of the State House, the Governor was received with due honor by the militia and State officials, He subsequently handed his mes- sage to the Secretary in charge, trom which the lollowing is extracted :— THE INAUGURAL MESSAGE, The Governor, after returning acknowledgment for the honor conierred upon him, and invoking Divine guid. ance in determining upon public mipaesten, cant ioned the Le; ture to avoid, 80 far as ible, the ee Tinths ot special legisiation.

BOSTON'S LOST COMMERCE. The “Hub” Wants » Railroad te the Hudson River Through the Hoossc Tunnel—Meeting of Merchants in Fan= il Hall? Boston, June 4, 1874. A meeting of merchants at the call of the Board of Trade was heid in Faneuil Hall this afternoon, to consider transportation facilities and rates between Boston and the West, The meeting was Well attended, and was called to order by Mr. D. W. Skillings, Mr. John W. Candler was chosen President, Mayor Cobb and several others serving as Vice Presidents, Mr. Candler addressed the Meeting at considerable length. He said that Boston needed better commercial accommodations and wider and more extended means of transpor- tation. While Boston took pride tm the advance of New York and Philadelphia commercially, she was sul alive to her own require- ments in the abolishment of abuses a8 well as 1p augmenting her resources. The com- pletion of the tunnel route to the West snould be pushed forward to form a line mdependent of all other lines through the State and effect a connec- tion with the great trunk lines through New York. This project could as weli be carried through in 1874 as in 1875, so far as legislation was concerned, ‘The delay of a year would only be productive of new schemes that would serve no ovher purpose than to hinder what was so much desired and really needed for the preservation of Boston's interest im the foreign export trade. He wanted healthy competition with the the Boston and Albany Railroad, Boston had been slumbering too long and nad but just awakened toa realiza- tion of what she had thus lost. Let Massachusetts contribute all she has expended upon the tunnel lor the general benefit. The Legisiature should not be allowed to adjourn without settling this im- portant question. Henry Mayo said that the business men had not gesierca ag mourners, and did not believe in the | lecay of Boston. Her advan as any Atlantic city for exp With the fisheries. The difficulty lay in the means of transportation to the interior, leading to dis- criminations against the city. ‘Five cents per 100 pounds in the freight charges over those levied on Other cities was too much to bear. E, R. Mudge considered a competing railroad Mne through the coun'ry of paramount impor- tance, and ne, as @ manuiacturer, and every indi- vidual resideut in Boston, shouid interest himasel/ in securing direct communication with the grain pro- ducing and iabric consuming population of the West. He advocated no particular scheme, but ne desired that the Legislature should fully consider and pass upon the subject this year. ‘the mercan- tue community could afford no delay. He bad tried repeatedly.to import cotton and nave it transported through New York State, but aliin vain; and that whea empty cars were going that Way by the thousand the rates were such that he ‘was compelled to order his cotton to New York city for transportation inland, The merchants should insist upon some action. Mr. Jerome Jones said that the Albany Railroad, Which Boston and Massachusetts heipéd to build, was pow overtasked, and yet was the great stumbling block to the opening o! a second Hne. Boston had elevators and accommodations for im- Migrants and there was vothing to ship. He offered the tollowing resolutions trom the Board of Trade, which were adopted :— Whereas, while we recognize the perplexing difficul- ties that may have appeared during the consideration of the Hoosac iunnel question, and appreciate the efforts thus far made by this Legislature ror its satisfactory solution, the fact that a long period of time must be con- sumed in completing terminal tacilities and in perfecting Grier Necessary arrangements (or the, pracical opera- tion of @ through line, after a desirable plan has been adopted, warrants us in urging immediate acdon; there- re [ore, Resolved, That the commercial interests of Massachu- setts imperatively demand the early Fomplovon of a line of rafiroad from Boston, through the Hoosac funnel, ¢ Hadson River. .
