THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. Elections for Seats in the Legislative Assembly of the Nation. NE OF GAMBETTA’S PREFECTS RETURNED. The MacMahonist Candidate Ut- terly Defeated. M. Dumas, the Younger, as a Member of the Academy. PaRis, Feb. 8, 1875, Yesterday (Sunday) two elections of members to the National Assembly took place. In the Belne-et-Oise M. Valentin, whom his enemies would stigmatize as a Red” and who is really a itberal repubiicai, was victorious by a consider- abie majority over the Duke de Padooe, a Bona- partist, while they both utterly distanced M. ae Keratry, a Breton count of hybrid or septennalist republicanism, As I have pointed out before now, the French in their present mood like men who proiess distinct and unmistakable principles. Those who are neither hot nor cold experience the fate once threatened to the angel of the Church of Laodicea. M. VALENTIN 1s no ordinary personage. The revolution of 1848 ound him a sub-lieutenant of infantry, but soon litted him out of that humble sphere, Elected Deputy by the Department of the Lower Rhine he distinguished himsell as an opponent of the Prince Pres:dent’s policy, and in December, 1851, had the honor to dgure at the head of alist of banished representatives of vhe people, He took reluge in England and became & protessor in the Royal Military Academy of Woolwich, where ho gave such Satisiaction Lo his superiors as to be awarded on his resignation @ doubie retiring pension. he returned to Franco just in time to see war de- clared, Alsace overrun and his native strasbourg besieged. Gambetta was no sooner in office than he made Valentin Prefect of the Lower Rhine. Tradition asserts the new Prefect tohave swam, holding his commission between nls teeth, across the river lilunder a heavy fire from the German and also the French batteries. Certain 1t is that ne nad to pass the besieging lines to get into Strasbourg. When that city iell the Bavarian General paid him the COMPLIMENT vf ordering bis arrest, in violation of the articles ‘f capitulation. On tne conclusion of peace né fas set at liberty and namea Prefect of uyons by M. Thiers, There he did excellent service by a vigorous repression of the Communists, who were Seeking to reduce Lyons to the condition of Paris, But.he had the common sense to see that all ad- vanced liberals were not incendiaries, and the monarchists would allow M. Thiers no peace till be had dismissed this excellent official, whom they absurdly accused of sympathizing with Aocialism, THE REPUBLICAN PARTY VASTLY STRENGTHENED, The election of M. Valentin will necessarily strengthen the republican party in the Assembly, while the polling im the Cotes-du-Nord bas not been such as to discourage it. M. Foucher de Careil (iiberal republican) nas, according to the latest Teturns, obtained the largest number of votes, thouga bard pressed by Admiral de Kerjdgu, a legitimist. Tie Bonapartist Duke de Feltreisa xood third, As no oue of the candidates hes re- ceived an absoluie majority of the votes polled, a second ejection or “‘ballotage” will be held on Sunday, the 21st ins!

There is no Teviving the political corpse of the Count of + Chambord. He cut his throat too deliberately to leave any hope to his followers. A foreigner would be slow to discover from the ordinary conversation even of intelligent French- men that the country was passing through a grave political crisis, M. DUMAS? RECEPTION AT THE ACADEMY. There are other and pleasanter subjects to tal about, think the Parisians. Among them is the approaching reception of Dumas, the younger, at the Academy. One or two details of his lite may not be without interest to Americans. SKETCH OF HIS LIFE. Tbe author of the “Dame aux Caméilas” isan early riser. He 1s always up before his servants, and relieves unem of the trouble of lighting the fires. He even iights the kitchen stove; so that when it 1s the cook’s good pleasure to get up he has oniy to warm some soup for his mas- ter ond the p eparations for breakfast are complete. Dumas invariably fortifies him- | sell for mis morning’s work by a basin { | and of turnips that ol soup, in preference to tea, coffee or chocolate: j as being more wholesome and giving a better ap- petite for lunch. spatched, he works at the plays and nevels which are the special business of his life, giving them about four hours a day—often less, He sits in a | chair, without any back to it, but only for the Manual task of putting his thoughts on paper. The thoughts themselves come to him as he paces up and down his room, He writes with a quill pen on blue satin paper and never employs a sec- | retary or amanuensis. many correspondents—chiefy female and un- | known to himseli—and answering nearly all let ters, he cannot bear the idea of having near him | @ man who, as he puts it, would be prying into all | his secrets and hastening to puolish them the day | a aiter his death, A man’s own self, says Dumas, | is his best secretary, ana dies witn him, The oriliiant dramatist is A PAINSTAKING WRITER, Polishing aud repolishing whatever he touches. One of his tales, *L’Atfatre Clémenceau,” he copied | out no Jess than four times, and said he only re- gretted, when it was in the pubilsher’s hands, that he could not recopy it a flitu time. Dumas has a | One collection of pictures, and also of arms. A | vigitor, remarking a rifle of curious construction, | arked him if he was a sportsman. “No,” replied | Dumas; “Ladmit that you may killa man or a woman caught in adultery; [ don’t allow that you may iawiully shoot a ravbit. And yet,” he added, without a smile, “granted that rabbits | have morals, few must be shot who nave not violated conjugal faitu.” A CURIOUS COLLECTION | of hands, modelled in wax, or bronze, or marble, is another treasure which may be seen in M, Dumas’ house, Its owner 1s almost a believer in cuiromancy. “I love hands,’ he observed toa friend; “hey tell me far more than tar Ihave | seen some which have revealed to me infamous thoughts; others which bave plainly told me of | loity deeas.” M. Dumas ts @ friend to artists and sparrows, The former seldom apply to him in | vain lor assistance or encouragement, while for the latter a servant regularly brings in at luncheon time a huge platter of bread crumbs, which Dumas | takes to the window and distributes among the birds who flock before the well known and hos- pit able house, IS IT CHARLEY ROSS’ HAT?

No fire in the bleak, unfurnisned room. The hus- band had gone into the street to search the garbage barrels for food for his starving little ones. In Elizabeth street, in a cold, damp cellar, you will find a widow with three children, all barefooted. The children have clothes wound round their bodies, as the others had. ‘The only furniture, three broken chairs. No fire; no food.

They laughed at bis jokes, which were execra- bie; they ate his dinuers, whica were good; aud they washed down story and dinner with Chateau la Fitte and cognac.

Their Arrival in Queensland---Exciting Ad- venture in an Open Boat. Sypyey, N. S. W.. Jan. 16, 1875. New Caledonia, under the rule of M. Alleyron, is &@ much more dificult place 10 escape from than it was @ year ago, owiag to the rigorous super- vision exercised over all classes of the com- munity, The pews that two déportés bad reached Queensland in a small boat was received with in- credulity, so well had the secret of their escape been kept by the authorities, and few believe that the boat was their sole mode of conveyance. Great discontent prevails among the prisoners. Taeir enforced idleness, their want of means to procure anything save what is served out by the government and the new regu- Jauions by whicn any Snances sent them trom France are filtered through the hands of their keepers, will certainly cause some rash outbreak unless some alteration takes place. THE ESCAPED COMMUNISTS LANDED IN QUEENSLAND. The two Communists who reached Queensland in an open boat on December 22, have been ex- tremely reticent as to their real names, One bas evidently been a person of some position in France, and tells the jollowing story of how they escaped :— be HOW THEY GOT AWAY. The narrator says:—From the time of my arrival at New Caledonia I constantly brooded over t idea of escaping. The thought was never absent from my mind, and although tine passed away Without any opportunity occurring | couunually kept making preparations to aval myseli of the first chance that offered. From my scanty ratious lregularly put apart and concealed a portion, and I managed to accumulate a qcantiry of four bag- ging, out of which 1 managea during tne nights aud my leisure time whea I could ve se- cure from observation, to make a tolerable sali, 1 can hardly say in what manner | hoped to find the meang ol crossiug the ocean, but ac length the arrivalof one oi the trading vessels which supply the island with bullocks appeared to afford a8 good a prospect of success as was likely to occur, My preparations had escaped allattention, and all that remaiued tobe done was to evade tue uurds, procure @ boat and make a dash for it. from the place Where I was quartered the ship @b anchor, a short distance off (ue saore, could be plainly seen, and | observed with delight that a boat was floating astern of her, Unable tu endure tne daily insults and menaces of the warders, [ said to myself, thereiore, this night 1 shall escape ori shall drown imyseli; one or the other 1 am determined on. Ihave but ve two things to choose between. Feeilng that in an undertaking of tms sort one man would be telpiess singie- hanaed, I addressed myself to one of my iellow- prsopere whom I knew to be discreet, and to him confided my resolution. He hesitated a lirtie, but concluded by consenting to share the risk. From this moment I thought no more ol putting an end to my existence, but fed all my thougnts on making my Way-to Australia, where 1 had aiways heard people would be reaay to give me employ- ment, Un the 8th of DecemberI said to my comrade that we woula make a start that same evening. He consented, About an hour aiter mid- night we quitted our quarters, and, eluding the seniries who guardea the camp, we suc- ceeded in gaining the shore, Taking noiselessly to the water, we swam out towara the vessel, and successiuily reaching it, cut the painter which at- tached the bout ridiog astern and noiseless!y im- Pelied it away irom the ship. Arrived at a sale aistance we scram»ied on board and quickly reached the shore. Here we emoarked our tittle store Ol provender, amounting to tweoty-nine biscuits and abvat twelve or filteen litres (avout eleven or tuirteen quarts) of water. My sail we also put ou board. We then set out on our course without being so far perceived, either trom tne shore or by the guard sloop whico watcned the coast and lay right in our way. Seeing, nuwever, that we should not have time to clear the land that night, we rap into a rocky and wooded parc of the shore, Where we concea:ed our boat among the rocks by breaking bougns and beapiog them overher. In this situation we lay hid wuring the whole of the fvilowing day, in spite of the search Which was no doubt made when the boat was missed. The following nigut we LEFT OUR HIDING PLACE and arrived without being perceived at the reefs | whica intervene vetween the shore and the open a. The darkness, which favored us in one re- having no knowledge of the passage through the reefs aud not being able to see where dangers lay, we came plump in tne midst of the coral, Luckily the sea was calm or we must have been dashed to pieces. As it was, we ‘ound it impossiole to get clear that hivnt, and were obliged to get vul of the boat and hold on to her, sometimes standing on tue coral | and sometimes swimming in deep water, so as to revent tie waves Irom staving her against pro- ecttons. Here my companion got his soot badly bru.sed between the keel vi the boat aud tne coral, and had we not both been able to swim, we stould certamiy have perished. ‘Tne sollowing morutng, at daybreak, We managed to make our way through, and, although the guard sloop saw | us, their greater draught, and the long extent of We set sail as happy a8 kings, Ovt an nour later our boat was nearly ill ol water.

PIGEON SHOOTING. GRAND SWEEPSTAKES DECIDED AT BABYLON, i. L—A DAY GREATLY ENJOYED BY AMA- TEURS AND PROFESSIONALS. The pigeom shooting fraternity journeyed to Babylon, L. L, yesterday, and nad an en- joyable time deciding a grand sweep" stakes. Many of the spectators were gen- tlemen well known in this community, and those not “taking a hand” in the makes the occasion memorabie in many respects. A fleld, near Selah Smith’s Watson House, was selected as the shooting ground, and about noon there had assembled nearly 400 persons, wno love this amusement, all anxious to note the skill dis- played by the several contestants, The sweep- stakes was open to all comers—§25 entrance, 25 birds each, 27 yards rise, oz shot, 80 yards boundary, any size gun, but otherwise English rules to govern. Entered tor the event were the toliowing:—Jonhn Baitour, A. B. Purdy, Ciements Moore, M. Van Buren, T, Van Buren, Miles L. Johnson, A. 8. Post, Dr. A. Wagstaff, lra A. Paine and Captain Solomon Saxon, the latter a duck shot of much renown “on the island,’ but a Bovice in pigeon shooting, These entries mado the stake of $250 value, which was divided so as to give $125 to the first, $75 to the second and $50 to tne third. Mr. E. Stephenson acted as referee. The New York delegation came to the score in great confidence, and, upon the | whole, the amateur element can be congratulated | Up?m the success of a prominent representative, as contrasted with men of such established repu- tations as Johnson and Paine. First came Mr. Bal- four, who Opened the ball by missing nis pigeon. He was followed oy Mr. Puray, who cleveriy brought down a ‘air bird, when Mr. Moore repeated the performance, as aid Mr. M. Van Buren, Mr, T. Van Buren and Miles L. Johrson. Mr. Post gave his Pigeon a chance, and he went sailing rapidly toward Selan’s barns. Dr. Wagstaff scored in good style, as did Mr. Paine; bat Captain Sol, of Babylon, had the satisiaction of observing the “climbing” characteristics of his bird, and the old gentieman’s score began with a prominent ‘goose egg.” In the next rount Dr, Wagstat® and Captain Sol missed their pigeons, all the others scoring in fine orm. At the end of the fifth bira | for each, Balfuur had killed two, Purdy tour, Moore four, the Van Burens four each, Johnson four, Post one, Wagstaff four, Paine two (missing bis third, fourth and filth) and Saxon two. The Sport now hecame interesting, and an enterpris: | ing pool seller might have indulged in his calling to a very profitable extent. In the sixth round killed @ birds were scored toevery contestant excepting Johnson, who allowed his pigeon to escape throug’ a little care- lessness. At the conclusion of the tenth round M. ‘Vao Buren and Purdy topped the list, having each | cut down niae; tnen came T. Van Buren, Jounson and Wagstaff, with eight each; Moore, Paine and Balfour, seven each; Captain Sol, six, and Post three. The brothers Van Buren by this time nad shown that they were in excellent form, and would be hard to beat, though it must be said that luck was with them, Many Of their virds being exceedingly slow in leaving the ree. When the fifteenth round had been shot, M. Van Buren led the dance with fourteen, nis brother and Johnson lollowing witn thirteen, Moore witn twelve, Purdy eleven, Paine ditto, and Captain Sol the same; the others practically out of the race lor any of the money. Alter each contestant had been giveu five additional birds, making twelve. the brothers Van Buren and Johnson were tie, their scores being—Kilied, 18; missed, 2, Then the ref ree ordered the others to retire, in order bo give these three gentlemen a chance to decide who w: he best man. M. Van Buren grounded ali bis remaining five pigeons in fine styie, while | Johnson aliowed lis twenty-first to escape and 1. Van Buren obtained bianks Jor his twenty-first, twenty-second and twenty-fith, Tms gave M. Van Buren first money ($125) and Johnson the second premum ol $75, The latter did much the best shooting in the contest, ovtaining Ddiras more GiMcult to kill than the winaer of tne first money, yet that gentieman is entitled to great credit for nis excellent score. f. Van Buren won third money—$50—aiter a very spirited en- counter, im which he measured sktil witn Pordy aud Moore. Although Paime did mot carry away any of the crisp greeu- he felt satisfied with the day’s sport, inasmuch as his management oi tne event wae highly compilmented by Shooters and specia- tors alike.

THE RELIGIOUS BROILS IN MEXICO. CATHOLIC ACCOUNT OF THE REPORTED OUTRAGES ACAPULCO, (From the Catholic (New York) Review.) A well known citizen of New York, who wasa passenger on board the Montana en route for san | Francisco, was in Acapuloo about the time of the riot already telegraphed with much sensation to the American press. He took pains to make in- | quiries coucerning the origin of the trouble, and | from a letter to a triend im New York we make the following extract STEAMER MONTANA, OFF THE COAST OF LOWER CALIMORNIA, Feb. 5, 1875. On Monday, February, 1, we anchored in Aca- | pulco Bay. 1 went ashore and visited the little pel and other places of interest in the | town, A very unfortuna’e affair had happened on | the Tuesday oelore our arrival. It appears tuat a Presbyterian missionary had come trom the City of Mexico, at the invitation of government oficials, | to convert the good people of Acapuico to the “Religion of the Bivle.” Lhe imhavitants are and nave been all Catholtvs ior over 200 years, They are more thgo half Indians, and know no better way oi /warding off the attacks of the Protestants on then’ religion than the thrust | of the short, phar Mex.cun sword. ie Presvy- | terian a; ostle, aided by the government, erected a | Meeting house and neg¥n the work vo! evangelza- | ion, He himself admits, for we have spoken to | mim, that he always conducted services armed, | Two revoivers in hts pockets and a Bible in tis hands.

The competition that is being prepared hes @ twofold | object—that of showing the progress Chiit hae | made since the last taternational agricultural ex- | nibition of 1869, and to invite and promote the dw | play of new products, the establishing in the country of new industries and the introduction of the latest processes in those known, promoting the development of the natural productions and @ trade in general. | Chill, @ Rew country with a rich soll, stands tr want of extenaing the tillage and improving the | cultivation of her iand; she needs also to improve | the working of the mineral deposit so abundant | In her territory, to forward industry that trans | forms these productions, and to enlarge ner gen- eral stock of Knowledge.
