Melancholy Pilgrimage to Ghiselhurst to Gele- brat Bugenie's Birthday. ROUHER IN TROUBLE. Rochefort Fighting Everybody to Secure Amnesty for Commu The New Opera, “Dimitri’—Dalls, Parties, Fashions and Dramatic ‘Events, (SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD BY CABLE. } Panis, May 7, 1876, The imperialists are promoting the Communist amnesty agitation, because they believe that in the end there will be trouble abont it, and anything that has in it the s»adow of a chance they avail them- selves of most readily. If they can succeed in creating a division among the republican factions there will be an opportunity for new pamphiets in denunciation of what was so often termed ‘dema- gogism” durng the canvass before the last elec- tions, To turn this new excitement to account for Party purposes will be something of revenge for the wholesale unseating of their friends by the Assem- bly, a8 well as giving the leaders something to do in these otherwise uncventful times. ROCHEFORT AGAIN. Rochefort’s present newspaper is apparently giv- ing the authorities more trouble than did his famous Lanterne, ‘Instead of pleading for the “rights of man,” as the title of his new journal would jndi- cate, he seems to be raking up all the old grievances which he suffered during the Empire, and fagellat- ing without mercy all who have ever run counter to his wishes. From Ollivier to Prince Pierre Bona- parte, from Thiers to MacMahon, he pierces every one with his untiring free lance. His publisher has been repeatedly convicted and fined and his editor imprisoned, but Rochefort is always invisible whenever sought for. 6 M. ROURER IN TROUBLE. It is probable now that the government will instl- tute a prosecution against M. Rouher for his flerce anti-republican address to the electors of Ajaccio. Some leading Corsicans believe they can shield him by showing that his speech was as humorous as antagonistic, and that the government sustained no harm thereby. | BONAPARTISTS AT CHISELMURST. The Bonapartists, so far, have reduced their mani- festations to a gathering at Chiselhurst, whither the leaders went to celebrate the ex-Empress Eu- gcnie’s fiftieth birthday, and to congratulate her, no doubt, on the distant vision which she so steadily indulges of the coronation of Napoleon IV. Still these constant pilgrimages to the little dull Kentish village must be monotonous to the gay throng which for- merly taught the world politics from the Tuileries and Hotel de Ville, and Her ex-Majesty must also appreciate the difference. Speeches and promises were plentiful, as I am informed, and M. Rouher almost ventured to prophesy restoration—but leav- ing out the date. MORE PREFECTORIAL CHANGES. Further prefectorial changes are announced for to-morrow. EXPLOSIVE BULLETS—TURKEY ASSAILED. One result of the recent Congress at Brussels on the mode of conducting warfare is apparent already. It seems that the Ottoman government have given orders to the War Department to issue ex- plosive bullets—some of which may have been used already—and now, Austria, Hun- gary and Germany are wrangling with with the Porte over it, even using threatening lan- guage to josure a prompt discontinuance of the murderous explosives, and alleging that, with the modern implements of war, fighting is suMciently horrible without the introduction of these things. Moreover, that it ia not necessary to blow a soldier to pieces in order to place him hors de combat. * pimet NIGHT oF “prMrre.” The ThéAtre Lyrique opened last night with Victo- rien Jonet®re's new opera “Dimitri.” The house was literally crammed. Among the notabilities present were Mme. MacMahon, the Prefect of the Seine, M. Gambetta and many of the ¢lite of the city. THE MUSIC. The opera was a fair success, apart from the ox! aggerated enthusiasm of the claque engaged for the occasion, The orchestration was good, and there were also some excellent morceaux of melody; but it was not a great work, considered in its entirety. ENGALLY'S SUCCESS. Mme, Engally assumed the principal rote, and achieved a splendid success. She has a fine voice and an excellent method of delivery, so much so that he quite charmed the audience. “LES HEROIQUES.” At the Opéra Comique “Les Héroiquea” was not a success. The music of the libretto was by Young, and shows the writer’s imexperience on every page. THE “SHAUGHRAUN” IN PARIS.

T DOM PEDRO. A Visit to the Manufacturing Estab- lishments of Pittsburg. ARRIVAL IN WASHINGTON. His Majesty’s Impression of the National Capitol. WASHINGTON, May 7, 1876, The Emperor left Pittsburg at three o'clock A. M. Yesterday on a special train trom Oil City to inspect Some of the petroleum works. He arrived at eight o'clock and was delayed at the station, where a latge crowd was assembled. Owing to the non-arrival of carriages that had been ordered there was some delay. INSPECTING THE OL, WORKS. After some time carriages were procured and His Majesty proceeded to inspect the Imperial Petro- leum Works, where he had an opportunity of acquainting himself with the various processes through which the oil passes during its preparation for the market. ‘The Emperor was deeply interested tn all that he saw. As the Imperial Works lately suifered severely from large oll tanks taking fire there was ample op- portunity to become acquainted with the dangers as. well us the benefits connected with the production of petroleum. AT THE WELLS. As the Emperor did not see an oll well in active operation at Oil City, the train stopped on the way back to Pittsburg at Foxburg, to allow him to wit- ness the drawing of the oil from the earth. POPULAR OVATIONS. Anumber of people had assembled at this point, and on the departure of the train they gave three rousing cheers for His Majesty. As the imperial train swept past Parker City the people came out in great numbers, and, though separated by the river, they expressed their good will by hoisting flags and waving handkerchiefs, a politencss that was duly acknowledged by the Emperor. MOVEMENTS IN PITTSBURG. On his arrival in Pittsburg His Majesty visited the Catholic church of St. Paul and the City Hall, where he was received and shown through the building by Mayor McCarthy. AT THE IRON WORKS, He then proceeded to the American Iron Works, where 3,000 men are employed, and, having care- fully inspected the works, he paid the manager the compliment of saying that in some of the depart- ments the works were more complete than any be had seen in Europe. ROYAL CRITICISMS, He afterward visited some glass works, but neither in the system nor in the quality of the work did he find anything worthy of commendation. It was now too late to visit other industrial estab- Hishments, so the Imperial party ascended Mount Washington by the inclined plane railway and en- joyed a splendid view of the city. His Majesty next drove over to Allegheny City to inspect the Penitentiary, where he was courteously received by the warden, ‘lhe prison officers werea little taken aback by His Majesty's acquaintance with prison systems, and also by the information that, though the Pennsylvania prison was well con- ducted apparently, His Majesty thought it was not equal to the Penitentiary of Rio Janeiro. REFRESHING FRANKNESS. When His Majesty was informed that the work- shop building had been erected at a cost of $15,000 he told the warden it was too dear, a ptece of frank- ness that rather surprised the warden, and amused not a few of those who were accompanying the party. Tlis Majesty was also very much disap- pointed to find so little provision made for schools in the prison, and was really surprised when in- formed that the dozen desks In a miserable room, not more than twenty feet square, were the whole accommodation devoted to schools in the system of American prisons, This statement seems incredible, | bat asit was made by a prison oficial it is probably correct. Mis Majesty left the model Pennsytvanta Penitentiary convinced that there was still room in it for improvement in American prisona He was delighted with Pittsburgh, and expressed great re- gret that he could not stay long enough to see the various matters of interest tn the city. The energy and industry of the town made a dccp impression on His Majesty. AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL, His Majesty Dom Pedro and suite arrived here this morning at ten o'clock, Seflor Borges, the Brazilian Minister, received the Emperor at the station, where carriages were waiting to conduct the impe- rial party to the Arlington Motel. His Majesty's first visit was to the Catholic church of St, Matthew, where ¢ HE ATTENDED MASS. On the conclusion of divitie service he drove to the Capitol. He was shown through the building by the Sergeant-at-Arms, Mr. J. R. French. His Majesty was greatly struck by the magnificent PROPORTIONS OF THE CAPITOL, and, after contemplating It for a while, he turned to the HERALD correspondent and said:— “it is magnificent. , It is the finest building I ever saw. There {3 nothing in Europe equal to it.” And then after a moment's pause, “Nothing_so striking except, perhaps, the colonnade of the Louvre,” The groups of statuary which disfigure the splendid oe caught His Majesty's eye, and he said:— “Oh, they are very poor.” It must be sald that the sculpture is mediocre. Let usnot ee reee: but the mass Is splendid.” These observations were made On the outakte of the building for, on the arrival of the imperial party, the doors were found to be locked, but were opened after a short delay through the courtesy of the officers. THE ROTUNDA won from Ilis Majeaty expressions of admiration, but itis tobe feared that the big picture did not give him a very high notion of our art taste. Looking at the bas reliefs round the rotunda, the Emperor was driven to inquire where the Americans had gone in search of such bad artists, and was not a little shocked to find that the worst work In the place had been done by adventurous pretenders from sunny Italy, The only works of real artistic worth wero the splendid views of the Yellow Stone Valley and Colorado, painted by Thomas Moran—works that are well deserving of the honorable position that has been essigned to them, keeping with the grandeur of the edifice they adorn. The Emperor was next shown throagh THE LADIES’ RECEPTION noOM, which was very much admired, On entering it the Viseonde de Kom Retiro paid Americans the com- pliment of saying that:— “The people of this country understood how to erect their public buildings in a way worthy of the nation’s greatness, and that such works could not | fail to impress strangers with a high idea of the as- ptrations and Intelligence of the people.” His Majesty adinired very mach the Senate pri- vate consultation room. He found that it was in exquisite taste, but that the furniture of the room was not in keeping with its richness and beauty. | QED ‘This remark was caused by the presence of a num- | ber of ordinary wooden chairs, which had probably been placed in the room for some extraordinary con- the beautifal marble walls and pillars. THE SENATE. Ifis Majesty thought it was not eo richly decorated as the English House of Lords, nor did it display so much Inxury.

By telegrams from Washington the tmperial party learned this afternoon that Seer ‘y Bristow had decided not to admit free of duty the books prepared by the Brazilian government, supplying all kinds of information about the political and indus. trial condition of Brazil and intimately connected with the exhibition of Brazilian products, In no sense can the works be regarded as ord nary works relating to things not on exhibition, for the work in question was specially written as AN AID TO FOREIGNERS in forming a correct notion of the resources, agri- cultural, mining and industrial, of Brazil, and there- fore necessarily containing a great deal of matter relating directly to the objects exposed in the Brae zillan department. ‘THE WORK IN QUESTION was admitted, both in Paris and Vienna, free of duty and as a component and necessary part of Brae zil’s contribution to her expositions. When the Em- peror learned Secretary Bristow’s decision he said he thought the matter could not have been properly presented to the Secretary of the Interior, a view shared by the Visconde de Bom Retiro, who fs the author of the work in question. The work appeared in the Paris Exhibition under the title of “ Bresel a VExposition de Paris,” and in Vienna as “ Brazil at the Exposition of Vienna,” and at present as “ Bra- zil in the Philadelphia Exhibition.”” MIDNIGHT WEATHER REPORT.
