The writer also states that the Ameer is doubtless receiving aid from Russia. The Gazette also makes the im- portant statement that the advance upon Cabul has been postponed until next year, witha view of more effectually coercing the Ameer, than bya mere dash at the present time, The Gazette urges that it will be better to spend some months in organizing an irresistible 1orce than to negiect the necessary precautions and thus jeopar- aize the safety oi the Empire.

MAGNIFICENT DISPLAY. Princes, Princesses, Diplomats, Scien- tists and Men of Affairs. IN THE PALACE. SCENES Brilliant Assemblage in. the Grand Hall of Mirrors. ELECTRIC ILLUMINATIONS, [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.) Pazis, Oct. 23, 1878. The féte given by Marshal MacMahon in honor of his royal and other distinguished visitors at the Versailles palace last night was brilliant beyond description, worthy of the times of Le Roi Soleil. Fifteen thousand persons were present, including all the foreign notabilities of fashion, the promi- nent in the arts and sciences and the scions of royalty. The Prince and Princess of Wales, the Princess Thyra, Don Frangois d’Assize, the Princess of Sweden and Den- mark, the Duke d’Aosta and Count of Fland- ers were there, with other royal personages who have been visiting the World's Fair. It may be termed the closing reception of the International Exhibition. BRILLIANT RECEPTION. The Marshal and Mme, MacMahon arrived at nine o’clock, A regiment of cuirassiers were drawn up in the Cour d'Honneur, and paid His Excellency the customary homage as he passed through the lines, The guests were received by the President in the large saloon at the head of the magnificent Escalier de Marbre. The sabred and plumed cuirassiers lined both sides of the lovely staircase from the vestibule to the entrance of the grands appartements. The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at ten o'clock and were received at ‘‘salute” by the guards, while the Marshal advanced and met them at the head of the staircase, Next came Don Frangois d’Assize and the other princes above named. In due course came the ambassadors of Germany, Great Britain, Russia, Austria, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Turkey and others of the diplomatic corps—all in full uniform. SCENES IN THE SALOONS, ‘ The suite of saloons terminating with the Grande Galerie des Glaces (or Hall of Mir- rors), which were used for this occasion, were completely thronged. It was scarcely possible to move and still less possible to ance. The orchestras of Waldteufel and Legrange poured into the saloons, as it were, a flood of delightful melody and dancing airs from opposite ends of the Galerie Everywhere the hum of excited conversation. .Brilliant-military and diplomatic costumes, the besutifal toilets of the ladies, the lofty plumes of the princes, the splendid decorations of these, ‘the grandest apart- ments in the world,” made up a marvellous picture. Onevery side were men of re- nown in social and civil life. Historical souvenirs abounded on canvas ang in marble—the grandeur of royal courts, the luxuries of extravagant monarchs. The saloons, illuminated by a thousand wax lights, with their immense arcades, noble mirrors, Corinthian pilasters, in gold, gilt and blue and bronze, vaulted ceilings and allegorical pictures of the days of the Martyr King made a scene at once dazzling and bewildering. RECOLLECTIONS OF GREAT MEN. It was amazing to witness the efforts of the ladies to scrutinize the features of the great Frenchmen of the past. M. de Bort, the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, was engaged in illustrating some of the events of the time of Louis XIV. to a num- ber of exhibitors at the Exhibition. Here were the noted Marshal Villars, the Duke of Anjou, Colbert, Torcy, Louvois, Marie Antoinette and numerous other celebrities, participators in scenes in these very halls which now, for the third time, resounded with the voices of men of the highest rank paying tribute to the Republic and cele- brating great industrial event which was built from the débris of the crushed Empire, From here a French monarch was dragged to the scaffold ; here the German conqueror of 1870 was crowned Emporor, while Napo- leon III. went forth a wretched exile, an awiul example of disappointed ambition. FAIRY LAND. At midnight the view of the Park from the windows was grand and fairy-like. A long vista, extending for miles between the trees and terminating at the Bassin d'Ap- pollon and the canal, was refulgent with the softening rays of electric lights. All tho allees or walks, the Tapis Vert, the Ave- nue de Trianon, all the diversified and in- describable divisions of the Park presented the appearance of being lit up by bright moonlight. The fountains, too, were beau- tifally illuminated. electric lichts being so arranged that the daating’ spray seemed like finely-drawn silver thread. It was, a8 it had been intended, a startling scenic display. FIBEWORES. Shortly after twelve some wonderfully beautiful fireworks, by Ruggieri, were set off negr the Appollon, at the end of the avenue to the north of the Tapis Vert. The effect, as the visitors exclaimed, was extra- ordinary, superb. Red and blue fire lit up the figures at the fountains, bringing out the nymph, tritons and sea monsters, uni- corns, cupids, vases and ornamentations into bold relief. As the hissing columns of water spurted up thirty and fifty feet into the air the colored lights gave them the hue of columns of waving fire. AMERICAN OF THE LADIES. Among the guests were a great number of Americans, including Commissioner Gen- eral McCormick and several of his col- leagues, now members of the Legion of Honor, and about a hundred of our manu- facturers and merchants who are in Paris attending the Exhibition, with their wives and daughters. Mme. MacMa- hon, the Princess of Wales and the Princess Thyra were dressed in white satin and wore a profusion of flowers and diamonds. There were three buftets from which the most delicious and costly refresh- ments were served tothe guests, As the rooms became thinned toward one o'clock AM. there was some dancing. But the occasion was utilized more for conference and congratulations than for dancing. BAD POLICE ARRANGEMENTS. | The police arrangements in and around the palace and gardeus were’ miserable. The crowding of carriages into: the court leading to the grand entrance of the palace wus almost dangerous. All the Paris jour- nals this evening comment in severe terms on these defects. At one time the press- ure on the Escalier de Marbre was so great that it is wonderful there was not an accident. Many visitors never got beyond the foot of the staircase, and numbers were obliged to leave without their hats and coats. It is a pity that so brilliant an affair should be marred by bad management, Curious reports are current in connection with these matters. Many attribute the difficulties to political malice GUESTS—DRESSES -on the part of certain subordinate officials at the Prefect of Police, An inquiry will doubtless be instituted. THE GALERIE DES GLAGES. The famous Galerie des Giaces, or Hall of Mirrors, in the Palace of Versailles, considered the most magnifi- cent salon in the world, hasa remarkable history. It was built by Louis XiV., is 224 feet long, 35 teet in width and 43 feet irem floor tocetling, 1t is lighted by seventeen archea windows, which corre- spond with opposite arcades, filled with nuge mirrors almost tbe beight of the ball. The supperts are Co- rintbian columns. The ceil: which is vaulted, is Giviaea symmetrically int all com, ents, surr: beariag trophies or garlan The de- signs and painting re by Lebrun. These extravagant decorations were «xclusively devewa to the glorification of Louis XiV. On occasions such as the reception of the Persian Ambassader, the Grand Monarque had the throne taken to this salon, which has been the scene of many fetes. The paintings oder the dome represent the vic- tofics of Lows XIV., one being: she conquest of Franche Comté, the details of which are recorded by Rainssac. The tewns of F by weeping women, who are by aliegorieal fig- strength and heroic valor, aseends a steep rock under the guidance of Minerva, and on the summit of which stands a raging lion.

THE REVERED BISHOP FINDS A LAST RESTING PLACE IN THE CATHEDRAL OF ORLEANS. [Br CABLE To THE HERALD.) ™ Pants, Oct. 23, 1878. The Hxnatp’s special correspondent at Orleans telegraphs that the obsequies of Bishop Dupanloup to-day were imposing and magnificent in the extreme, The cor- tége was preceded by a number of religious societies, several trade corporations, the clergy of twelve parishes, the civil and mil- itary authorities, Cardinal Guibert and thirty mitred bishops. The pallbearers were :— President of the Tribunal of Orleans, General Bataille, M. John Lemoinne, and Duc d’Audiffret-Pasquier. The French Academy was represented by MM. John Lemoinne, Camille Doucet and Professor Saint René Taillandier, BURIAL PLACK IN THR CATHEDRAL, All the shops in the city of Orleans were closed along the route followed by the cor- téze, The religious ceremony closed with five solemn benedictions given by Cardinal Guibert and four bishops. The body of the deceased remained exposed upon a catat falque until four o'clock, ‘when the coffin lid was closed and the corpse was de- posited temporarily in a side chapel of the cathedral to await the completion of the vault intended for its reception. - IN SAD MEMORY, The streets were thronged with people, all of whom appeared anxious to testify their regard for the memory of the deceased. FOREIGN FINANCES. FAILUBE OF MATTHEW, BUCHANNAN & CO., GLASGOW, FOR ONE MILLION POUNDS—A COAL CORPORATION DEFUNCT—REASSURING ADVICES FROM LONDON AND PARIS —ESCAPE OF MB. FLEMING, (BY CaBLE TO THE H¥YBALD.] Guascow, Oct. 23, 1878. Trade reports show increasing gloom. At Barrhead several of the leading trades and industrial works are much depressed. Some places are about to begin broken time. The iron foundries are also very dull, At Burnley a very gloomy feeling prevails. The large mills have reduced their run- ning time, so that a large curtailment of the productions is imminent. News from Dunfermline has been received to the effect that a large Fife coalmaster has failed in consequence of his connection with the City of Glasgow Bank, This, coming as it does after the recent enforcement of a re- duction of ten per cent, must produce se- rious results in the coal trade of that dis- trict. FIVE MILLION DOLLARS MORE. In consequence of the failure of the City of Glasgow Bank, Matthew, Buchannan & Co., merchants of Glasgow, suspended this afternoon with liabilities of about £1,000,000 ($4,840,000). Thomas Matthew, the senior partner of this house, is a brother-in-law of James Morton, who failed yesterday, and holds £1,000 of ‘bank stock, and £23,745 in trust for Henderson & Dinmock. TheDrum- pellier Coal Company, of Glasgow, has failed, with liabilities of £80,000 ($387,200). Ru- mors are current that another large firm of shippers has failed. RETUBNING CONFIDENCE—RATES OF DISCOUNT EsSIER—ME. FLEMING DEPARTS FOR SPAIN. [sr CABLE TO THE HERALD. } Lonpon, Oct. 23, 1878. The banks of the metropolis show much greater tendency to accommodate customers than for a fortnight past. The Bank’s rate of discount is easier. The first paper was taken at a trifle under six per cent. An in- crease in the bank rate is not anticipated. Silver remains unaltered at 49 1-2d. A BIRD OF PASSAGE. A rumor was current at Glasgow yosterday that a London geatieman, who has been prominently men- tioned in connection with the City of Glasgow Bank matters, has suddenly taken flight. A specially char- tered a er proceeded to the coast ot Kintyre, where the gentleman roferred to was taken off in a ‘Small boat, His destination is said to be Spain.

IMPENDING STRIKE OF THE CLYDE SHIP- BUILDERS—MONEY OF THE TRADE UNIONS AGAINST THE CAPITALISTS. (From the Evening Telegram of yesterday.) SPECIAL CABLE DESPATCH TO THE TELEGRAM. GLascow, Oct, 23, 1878. The Glasgow shipbuilders are ina very excited condition to-day, end threatening to go on a gen- eral strike. The cause of this is the recent reduc- Uon of their wages to the extent of seven and a-halt percent. This, as may be imagined, has carried sorrow to thousands of homes along the banks of the Clyde. The men maintain that it is a fugrant injustice to reduce their small wages any turther. Add to this, the poor fellows have been only receiv- ing partial employment for a jong time back on accuuat of the dulness of trade and the limited demand for new iron steam and satling ships. It is also a patent fact that there is a large feet of steamships in excellent condition rotting away in the different docks of Liverpool and Lundon, awaiting purchasers, HARD TIMES. The circular of a firm of steamship brokers of London, who are specially engaged in the purchase and sale of steam vessels, which hes before me, shows that they have several hundred of these second-hand crait to dispose of. Many of them can be purchased for a mere song. These facts are not unknown to the workmen employed in the shipyards of this and the neighboring cities, but they say in reply: — THREATENED WITH STARVATION. “We have terrible difficulty as it 1s to obtain Jood and clothing for our wives and families If you reduce our wages seven and a half per cent you bring us face to face with starvation and death.” Others sa: ‘We are now being called upon to atone for the rascality of some ol the di- rectors of the rotten Bank of Glasgow.” THE MEN ORGANIZING. The secretary of the Clyde Shipbuilding Eo- gineers’ Association nas called a meeting to appoint a committee to conter with their employers on the subject of the reduction of their wages. The mem- bers of the association propose also considering the communications they have received from other trade unions on the subject of the reduction of their wages also. Many of these unions have sub- mitted offers to their employers of compromising the matter in dispute, which it is earnestly hoped may prave satisfactory to both sides, THR STRUGGLE FOR EXISTENCE. Many weil informed persons maintain that, con- sidering the disastrous condition of trade on the Ciyde, such concessions are not likely to be gtanted. The struggle, it it commences, will bring terrible hardships on the working class. The riveters employed by the firma of AU & J Inglis and Patrick Strack have gone on strike. ‘The firm, it is understood, made them the offer of paying oid rates, on the vedsela which are now underway, but tor new work the reduction would have to be enforced. The men, after a brief con- sultation, determined to go on strike. PARIS ZUNvITURED BY THE FINANOUAL TROUBLES OF!GREAT BRITAIN. [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.) Pants, Oct. 23, 1878.

PARNELL ORGANIZES THE OPPOSITION 70 MB. BUTT—‘‘OBSTRUCTION NOW AND ALL THE TIMB"—JOHN O'CONNOR POWER CALLS UPOM MB. BUTT TO STAND BY HIS PROMISES. [BY CaBLE TO THE HERALD. ] ? Dvuputs, Oct. 23, 1878, The three days’ conference of that wing of the Home Rule party opposed to Mr. Isaac Butt's policy concluded this afternoon, The delegates, who came from all parts of Ireland, declared for obstruction instead of constitutional conciliation. Mr. Butt's party was fiercely denounced by the mass meeting. Mr. Parnell, M. P., declared his intention to ask the opinion of the constituencies through- out Ireland in regard to obstruction, with which object in view he will make a politi- eal tour through the entire island. He declared that he had a resolution which he should put before these constituencies, binding their representatives to stop par. ‘was suspended or imprisoned by the Hous of Commons. AT FEVER HEAT. The obstructionists received the adhe-| sion of sixteen Irish members of Parli ment, and arrangements were made t place obstruction candidates before th constituencies represented by Mr. Butt’ at the next general elec- The old Repeal leaders joined the obstructionists; the nationalists will, when the hour comes, unite with the Par- nellites at the polls. The home rule organ- izations, under Parnell’s policy, are to be revived at once. Mass meetings in favor of obstruction are to be held throughout all the counties and at all the large towns. MR. BUTT DENOUNCED. The Butt party is much dejected and Mr. Butttis called on by his friends to issue an address to the people on his policy. There was a private meeting of obstructionist members of Parliament held this morning to arrange a plan of campaign for the winter months. All the large Irish populations of Great Britain are to be appealed to for a declaration in favor of the Parnell policy. Ata mass meeting last night the Buttites were thrown out. There was no row, how- followers. tions. ever. THE PARNELL POLICY. John O'Connor Power, member for Mayo, challenges Mr. Butt to fulfil his declaration made against the English Parliament in 1867. The obstructionists expect filty members in the next Parliament, and in- tend to act as one body to block business until home rule for Ireland is granted or compel Parliament toexpel them. Their policy is to meet in Ireland and advise the people to denounce the authority of the English Parliament. Mr. Butt will address his constituents soon, opposing this policy. At the election the question for the Irish people will have been narrowed down to—“‘Who shall lead Ireland, Batt or Parnell ?” RACING IN ENGLAND.
