FRANCE. Parliamentary Recrimination Concerning the Nievre Election. Boyalist Charges of “Ring” Contract Frauds Against Gambetta. Violent Scene in the Assembly and Paris Deeply Excited. DEATH OF AN ARCHBISHOP. Panis, June 9, 1874, In the Assembly to-day M. Girerd, Deputy irom the Department of the Nigvre and member of the Lett, read a document, which he stated had been Ciroulated daring the recent election in that de- partment. The paper urges Bonapartist officials to confer all the appointments in their gift upon retired officers who are in favor of the election of M. Burgoing, the Bonapartist candidate, and adds that the Minister of Finance, M. Magne, has furnished lists of such officers to the government. M. Girerd demands an honest inquiry into the amfair. M. Rouher diaclaimed- any knowledge of the docament, and insinuated that it was fictitious, He declared himself in favor of an inquiry, and would discuss the subject when the results of the investigation should be presented to the As- Semply. ¢ M. Gambetta’ accused Ministers Magne and Ciasey of complicity in this discreditable business. The Bonapartist members of the Assembly in- dorsea M. Rouber’s offer to discuss the matter when investigated. ROYALIST SHOT AT GAMBETTA—SCENE OF EXOITE- MENT AND TUMULT. M. Rouher then reminded the Chamber of the charges in relation to improper and {fraudulent @ontracts and appointments reported by the Com- mittee on the Acts of the September government against M. Gambetta. A violent scene followed. M. Gambetta replied that he had always ans- ‘wered the questions of the committee, but did not admit the right of ‘wretches’ (with which term Re branded the Bonapartists) to question him. ‘The tumult and shouting which this reply pros ‘Voked rendered M. Rouner's rejoinder inaudible, M. Buffet threatened to move a vote of censure on M. Gambetts for the words he had spoken, After the. sitting M. Gambetta and his friends were followed as they were leaving the Chamber end insulted by the Bonapartists. PARIS AGITATED. ‘The occurrence is considered as of & serious character, and causes great excitement in Paris. POLITICAL HOPE OF THE OPPOSITION. ‘The Left claim that 330 members are pledged to Vote for the dissolution of the Assembly, and they only require thirty more votes to carry the motion, which they intend to introduce at the ear- West day possible.

Roms, June 9, 1874, The pilgrims from the United States, accom- panied by 100 American Catholic residents of Rome, proceeded tothe Vatican to-day and were received by the Pope. ADDRESS TO THE PONTIFY. Bishop Divenger, introducing them, expatiated on “the unalterable devotion of the Catholics of the United States to the Holy Father. Honestly loving hberty they heartily condemned the ty- Yanical persecutions of the Church by braggarte false to liberty and estranged from “God.” Dr. Theard spoke briefly in the same spirit, THE POPE'S REPLY. The’ Pope replied that “amid the aarkness which encompassed the world, this manifestation was a ray of tight. The enemies of the Holy Church were numerous. It was a great consola- tlon to look upon the New World, where the true faith had so marvellously developed as to require the frequent creation of new dioceses. Still, false religions prevailed on a large part of that conti- nent, and we must constantly pray for the restora- tion or all to the true faith.” SALUTATION AND RESOLUTION. The pilgrims then advanced one by one and Kissed the Pope’s hand, and presented the gifts they had brought from America. atter a most interesting interview the pilgrims withdrew, deeply impressed. They propose, on a future occasion, to present an album containing the signature of each mem- ber of the pilgrimage. SACRAMENTAL COMMUNION. On Thursday next the entire party will receive communion from the hands of the Pope. British Opinion of the American Jour= ney of Devotion, Loxpon, June 10, 1874, The Zimes, in an article on the American pil- grimage to Rome, expresses surprise that ‘a race priding itself on its shrewdness and precision of thought should indulge in such anti. quated superstitions, Possibly, after contrasting the desolation and wretchedness of the Jate Papal States with the cultivation and fertility of America, they, a8 an eminently practical people, accustomed to judge of instituttons by their re- sults, Will find their minds disabused.”” SPAIN.

" THE INDIOTED GOVERNOR, Governor Moses Not Held Responsible | for Alleged Larceny. | CHARLESTON, 8. C., June 9, 1874. Judge Graham has filed his decision upon the question whether Governor Moses is subject to in- dictment and trial by ordinary criminal process previous to impeachment by the Legislature. He holds that tae action of Governor Mos as charged in the indictment, was in truth oficial action, liit was misconduct or @ criminality it Was still oficial misconduct or a crime committed by him as Governor. It is therefore ordered that the indictment for larceny as to Franklin J.

In order to appreciate the value of the actiog in this play it is necessary to be able to Jollow with some facility the dialogue, as there are none of those grander exhibitions of human passion such as render roles like the Gladi- ator, Sampson and Othello intelligible even to those having no acquaintance with Italian. The part of ah Pegg agi abounds tn ad- | tuations, ant ves ample scope for the display of dramatic power. The play 1s not, however, of the kind best suited to the genius of the actor, who, though carefully elabo- | Tating tne details of his acting, fails to fill the popular conception of a man likely to be a hero of | romance. His Maxime Odiot is certainly a beaut | ful bit of art, but unlike uis representations of | heroiv rOles, it never for a moment cheats us into | the belief that it fsreal.

The acting which leads up to tns bit of sensation is decidedly powertal. It is somewhat trying for an actor to step down irom the heights of great tragedy to Play @ lovesichk modern knight, and the Jact that 5 r Salvini can pass from the Gladiator to Maxime Odiot and still maintain his claim to respectful attention 4s & convincing proof of his great dramatic talent; but it ts Impossinie not to note the wide difference in comparative merit of the two performances, The rote of Marguerite was filled by Signora Pia- monti, who gave further proof of the excellence oi her method, but whose conception o! the char- acter of tne heroine was a little too much tinged with tragedy. Signor A. Salvini, in the character of old Laroque, gave a very excellent picture of the doting old man, whose conscience, suddenly awak- ened by what appears to him the apparition of the’ man he cheated, impels him to do an act of justice | and make toe melancholy and romantic Odiot rich | jor life and presumptively happy; though how so | very sad @ persou could be made happy the author ee to point out, unless, indeed, it should be ie.

The Third Class Finishing the Examination in Mathematios—A Clever Set of “Immor- tals’—The Graduates on Law and Ethies—A Cavalry Drill West Pont, June 9, 1874, The “immortals” in mathematics of the third class got through their exammation this afternoou in splendid style. Indeed, two or three of the members of the section went through the severe ordeal they were put to a great deal more success- fully than many members of the leading sections, There was no evidence of any cramming what- ever, and if such an unreliable chance of passing well here as that fine art so well known to most of our colleges had been depended upon by any one of the cadets he was certainly made to feel before he leit the presence of the instructors that itis ONE OF THE LOST ARra, so far as West Point is concerned. In solving a problem on the blackboard each one was left to himeelf and his own resources, and if his solution Was not considered as fullas was deemed neces- sary, @ sharp question, ‘Well, sir, is that ail?’ spurred him on to further elucidations, which were then sure to be followed by quite as sharp a rebuke, “Explain the point yourself, sir; don’t let me draw you out.” The close of this mathematical examination of the third class showed plainly to any one present who ever had adoubt upon the subject, that the first two years of a cadet’s life at the Academy must ofnecessity be years of the most intense application. 1 think it would be @ capital idea for fathers who intend to have their sons sent here to bring them to the examination of the third class in Mathematics the year before their appointment is to be obtained. It would be of immense advan- tage to them andthe best means possible to in- duce them to apply themselves to the study of Mathematics before they come. Many boys get appointed and know just enough of the first radi- ments of arithmetic to allow of their pass ine all right at their ‘plebe” exami- Ration, and astonish their parents @ couple of years afterwards when they are sent home with the explanation for their return that they were found deficient in mathematics, This stndy very naturall lays the groundwork of the iuture studies of the cadet in engineeriug, gunnery and the like, and it 1s Jor this reason that 80 much importance is given to it here. In two years, besides performing his usual military duties, the third classman, from the knowledge of the first three rules of arithmetic, is bound, in order to pass as @ third ciass man, to master the higher mathematics, and this certainly allows but little opportunity Jor hd FOOLING AWAY ONE'S TIME IN IDLENESS. A boy, then, who comes here with a good knowl- edge of these higner mathematics has in the first Place less hard work during bis first two years than if he came only with just enough arithmeu- cal knowledge to get him through his plebe examination, and, in the second place, stands in but livtie fear of being sent home tu disgrace alter the third class examination. THE GRADUATES AT IT AGAIN. The windivg up of the ‘immortals” in the third | Class to-day made way for the first and second sections of the graduating class, who were ex- amined on law and ethics. The cadets who were examined in this study appeared to be perfectly at home on the subject, so faras it goes here | and answered all the questions put to them promptly. These questions related tn great par: to courts martial ana their power, marcial law and its relation to the civil power, definition ot muni- cipal and international law, to the right of privae teering, &c. One of the cadets, I noticed, stated, Bi inswer to & question, that in case a writ of i § corpus siiould be sued out against a commanding officer for the production 1n court of | a minor who had enlisted tu-the army of his own | free will, the officer would not be obliged to obs: j the writ “unless he saw fit.’ He coald, the cadet said, simply send as his return | to the writ tnat the minor was duly enlisted and bad sworn he was twenty-one. This will be news to Jadge Benedict and one or two otner United States Judges, who have had so many “minor” cases beiore them during the past. lew | years, in which they issued writs and no one dured torefuse to obey the Court.
