The Marquis de Lafayette Commends Him as a Law-Abiding President. FRANCE AND AMERICA [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.] ey Panis, Nov. 7, 1877. The banquet given in honor of General Grant by the American residents of Paris last night was a remarkably brilliant affair. It began at eight o'clock, and the guests, to thé number of 350, filled seven tables, DISTINGUISHED GUESTS. é At a semi-circular table, raised above the others, were ex-President Grant, Minister Noyes, Consul General Torbert, M.

A band stationed in the gallery played at intervals, and vocal music was given by a chorus furnished by the director of the Italian Opera. EN GRANDE TENUE. General Grant, Minister Noyes and Gen- eral Torbert were in full military uniform, THE TOASTS, Mr. Noyes, as chairman, proposed the fol- lowing toasts:— “The President of the United States,” which was responded to by music only. “The President of the French Republic,” to which a similar response was made, These wero followed by the toast of the evening, ‘Our Guest, General Grant,” which was proposed by the Chairman in the following speech :— SPEECH OF GENERAL NOYES, Lapres anp GentiEMEN—It has goner- ally happened, according to the world’s history, that when a great public crisis has occurred, such as a revolution for indepen- dence or a struggle for national existence, some man has been found specially fitted for and equal to the emergency. He ap- pears suddenly from unexpected quarters, and is not always selected from the arena of politics or from among the most prominent of his countrymen. He assumes at the proper time leadership and control, simply because ho was born for it and seems to have waited for the opportunity and thenecessity. BIOGRAPHY IN A NUTSHELL. ,When the war of secession was inaugu- rated in America, in 1861, a quiet and silent man, who had received a military educa- tion, was pursuing an avocation in civil life in a small town in Illinois, As soon as the first hostile guns opened upon Fort Sumter he offered his services to his country and ‘was appointed colonel of a regiment of vol- unteers. It was then believed that the war would be of short duration and limited in extent, but the North had under- rated the spirit and perhaps the cour- age and endurance of the rebellious section. Early reverses and doubtful con- tests that were either «lefeats or drawn bat- tles soon made it apparent that all the energies and resonrces of the government would be taxed to the uttermost. The thea- tre of war rapidly extended until it stretched westward a thousand miles from the sea, across great rivers and mountain ranges, Immense armies were assembled in the South, composed of brave and chivalric sol- diers and commanded by able and accom- plished leaders, There were serious politi- eal troubles and divided sympathies among the people of the North, but both sides nerved thomselves for the bloody and terri- ble struggle which lasted four years and re- sulted in the success of the national forces, NO MILITARY TITLE BIG ENOUGH. Meantime our Illinois colonel bad rifen in rank until thero was no grade sufficient for his recognition and reward. and two This silent man had shaken the continent with the thunder of his artillery and the tramp of his victorious columns. At the close of the war he was General-in-Chief, command. ing all the armies of tho Republic, which carried upon their muster rolls 1,100,000 men. Tho Union was preserved and its flag new ones were successively created. NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1877.-TRIPLE SHEET. SCENE OF THE RUSSIAN VICTORY. everywhere respected. After the close of the war he was twice called by a grateful nation to the highest office in the gift of 45,000,000 people. THE CIVIL MAGISTRATE, He administered the government with moderatiofffgenerosity, wisdom and success. The civil power was confronted by many com- plicated and difficult questions, He solved them with rare patriotism and intelligence, and his place in history as a civil magistrate will be among the foremost. After sixteen years of such labor as few men could en- dure; after such success in war and peace as few men ever attain, he seeks recreation in many lands and an opportunity to com- pare the institutions of his own country with the civilization and forms of govern- ment of the Old World. It isour happy privilege to-night to welcome the great sol- dier and statesman to this, the Queen City ofthe world, and to wish for him and his family health and happiness. Without de- taining you longer, I propose the health of the distinguished guest of the eveniag, General Grant, ex-President of the United States.” THE GUESTS APPLAUD, The delivery of General Noyes’ speech was frequently interrapted by enthusiastic applause. GENERAL GRANT'S REPLY. General Grant, on rising to reply, was received with prolonged cheering, He said :— “Lapres axp Gentiemen—After your flattering reception and the compliments of Governor Noyes, I am embarrassed to thank you asIshould wish. During the five and a half months I have been in Europe my reception has been very gratifying, not only to me, but also, above all, to my country and countrymen, who were honored by it. Ithank the American colony of Paris, I hope its members will enjoy their visit here as Iam doing and hope to do for some weeks yet. I hope when you return home you will find you realized the benefits predicted by our Minister.” Loud and enthusiastic applause followed the Gencral’s speech, . “oun COUNTRY.” The toast ‘‘Our Country” succeeded, ‘and ‘was responded to by Mr. Rantoul. M, DE LAFAYETTE ON FRANCE AND AMERICA. M. de Lafayette replied to the toast of “France.” He said France duly appre- ciated the great leader and great citizen who honored her by his visit. M. de Lafay- ette remarked that General Grant quitted power solely to bow before the laws of his country. He thanked him for visiting France, because he was a great example for her and because France gained from close inspection. In conclusion he alluded to the Revolutionary war, and expressed an ardent wish that the French and American republics should never be separated, but form an indissoluble union for the welfare, fiberty and independence of peoples, ROCHAMBEAU EULOGIZES GRANT. The Marquis of Rochampeau also spoke in eulogy of General Grant. “THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNE?.” The toast ‘Ihe Army and Navy” was responded to by the singing of tho “Star- Spangled Banner” by the Italian chorus. ADJOURNED TO THE DRAWING ROOM. Mr. Noyes finally proposed ‘‘The Ladies” and General Torbert offered “The Health of the United States Minister.” Mr. Noyes replied briefly, and the company then ad- journed to the drawing room.

The Russians have occupied Erzeroum, DRIVEN BEFORE THE STORM. The position of the Turkish army was shown to be very critical by the following laconic and strangely vague despatch re- ceived in Constantinople yesterday from Moukhtar Pacha. It would seem to confirm the reported defeat of the Turks before Erzeroum on Monday last, after an engage- ment of ten hours’ duration:— Enzznoum, Monday.
