The fire last night was not so disastrous as at first

seventy or seventy-five thousand insurance in the fol

Liverpool and Globe, $10,000; Commercial cf
New York, $6,000; American Central of St. Louir,
$5,000; Phienix $7,000; the balance in local compa

aries. Every fire engine was at w^rk. When the
last fire broke, owing to the proximity of the flames
to the Public Library theatre, and other large buik’-
ings, great excitement prevailed.

Canindiagoa arrived, although everybody knows what
the Virginius has been doing for the past year—her

yet Mr. Tkorington, who acts as United States Consul
at Aspinwali, certified that her passes from the port of
Carthagenia were all en regie, and.therefore
SHE WAS ENTITLED TO PROCEED
on as a merchant vessel belonging to U. S. Commander
Reed, of Kansas, considering that the Consul was tech

Bozan, when he saw the odds against him, he pro.
posed that the Virginius should le sent to the United
States for trial, offering to give surely for expenses,
if she were not condemned. The people here, though
generally sympathizing with the Cuban patriots
think that in this instance the United States flag

IN THE PARIS COURTS—THE DE BRIMONT CASE -
LOCAL JOURNALISM—THE PROCEEDINGS.
From Our Own Correspondent.
Paris, Friday June 27, 1873.
I know of nothing more annoying than the
law’s delays, or nothing more vexatious than
dancing attendance upon lawyers and judges
who have an interesting case in hands. The
usual accommodations for comfortable wait
ing are invariably wanting, and tho single
hard bench along the wall, which you occupy
“turn and turn about” with all sorts of peo
ple, is very far from being inviting. At first
it is absolutely repulsive, but as the prelimi
nary cases draw their slow length along, it
begins to grow tempting, weariness finally
cushions it, and in the end it is taken and en
joyed. Meantime the persons in waiting have
exhausted the usual topics of conversation,
and sit down in a state of exasperation, gaz
ing in moody silence upon the bare white
walls, finding moments of temporary relief in
watching the hand-cuffed prisoners led out
and in by the gendarmes.
These are the victims of the Assize Courts
above, where, rumor says, a prisoner is sure
to be treated with great severity, aud, even if
innocent, is strongly censured by the judges
for getting himself before justice, and warned
“not to do it again.” Yesterday was the
second day that I have passed at the Palais
de Justice for the purpose of Learing the
cases of Mr. Bennett and Mr. Krener, of the
American Register. This is in the Eighth
Chamber of the Correctional Police Court.
As these cases involve the fate of the suit
against the Times, I felt bound to follow' them,
but as yet nothing has been decided. A week
ago we spent the day in waiting, and at fonr
o’clock the judge said the case must be ad
journed for eight days. Yesterday there were
a number of small criminal cases to be cleared
from the docket, and we waited from 12
o’clock to 3:30 before the court called the suit
of “De Brimont vs. J. Kremer.”
THE DE BRIMOUNT CASE.
At this hour the small chamber was crowd
ed with peasants and ouvriers in their blue
cloth blouses, who had come to testify iu
some petty criminal suit: and as fresh air is
never allowed to enter a French court of jus
tice, the room was choking hot, aud filled
with an odor excessively human. Through
the kindness of a handsome young advocate,
who will one day make his mark in the world,
I obtained a seat in the reporters’ box, where
tho reporters of the French legal journals
kindly made a place for me near the bench.
These reporters do not hike down the cases
verbatim, but merely catch the silent points
and give here and there some of the questions
and answers. It must bo admitted that they
do their work with rare skill and good judg
ment. A Figaro reporter preseut took no
notes at all, yet he will write a pleasant, gos
sipy account of the trial of M. X ,
which will be read with real pleasure by the
public, but which will bear no soit of re
semblance to the trial in question.
Two of the reporters present asked me if it
were possible for them to get work upon the
“ grands jourruiux America Ins, so rich, so lib
eral, and which sent special correspondents
oil about the world.” The enterprise of the
New York journals was talked about in every
pause, until it became a little wearying to me.
They don’t marchander, ces joumauxla," said
one reporter, who turned to me and said,
Would yon believe that we are surely paid
b3’ the hour ?’* I had hard work to convince
him that many reporters in New York were
paid by the folio page, even, which looked so
mnch like the penny-a-lining done here that
it was deemed incredible, and quite below the
dignity of “ ces grands journaux Aviericains,
so powerful and so rich.” I say this for the ben
efit ot myself and other members of the pro
fession here, for if we do not write brilliant -
ly, we do try to keep up the dignity of the
craft, and succeed iu exciting the envy of our
French brethren. One intelligent young gen
tleman remarked that if the Times was
moved to Paris and printed in French it
would get all the best writers and become the
leading journal of the world. It is true, I
believe, that stenographic reporters are not
very well paid here, except those in official
positions. The latter get large pay, even in
comparison with New York. As there is
nearly olways a demand for offiei. i reporters,
at excellent pay, it is reasonable to suppose
that the gentlemen who work by the hour,
and complain at that, are not first-class artists
in their line.
THE TESTIMONY.
THE PROSECUTION.
De Bnmont’s lawyer argued that there had
been material and moral prejudice to his cli
ent. All of the New York journals had given
tho same dtory, and in nearly the same words,
which showed that the report had come from
the Peuuinmn family. These journals were
enormously rich, and how did they make their
money?—by paid advertisements. lJonc,
they took money for matter published, and
they could make a great deal by publishing
the matter furnished by the millionaire, Peu-
niman, who had promised his son-in-law 50,-
000 francs a year, and had given him nothing.
He had said, “My word is as good as my
bond,” but when asked to keep his
word he had refused, aud was now
publishing these libels upon his son-
in-law to avoid keeping it. It was a
regular conspiracy on the part of the journals,
paid by M. Penniman, to make DeBrimont
lose his case; and he did lose it, this consti
tuting the material prejudice. The moral
prejudice was based upon a remark heard at
the Jockey Club. Some one spoke of “a
DeBrimont.” “Which one?” asked a gentle
man; “he who killed his \rife aud passed
himself oft’ as n baron Such remarks as
that were libelous, and the American jour
nals were responsible for them. He then
brought out a lot of papers to prove that
DeBrimont had never called himself a baron,
and as this was the least important part of the
case he dwelt upon it in order to create a di
version. I fear this young man is not as clever
as ho might be. lie speaks with facility, he
has a good voice, but rather bizarre pronun
ciation, and is quick at repartee, though no
match for Clery. I think his name is Guerry.
It might have been because he had a bad case
to defend, but he soon wearied the court and
everybody else. The judges were yawning
and talking aloud to each other, aud the re
porters folded up their note-books. At five
o’clock, the President invited him to make
his argument more compact, and glanced sig
nificantly at the clock.
THE WITNESSES.
At 5:15, Guerry sat down, and in a second
the Judge said: “Adjourned to this day week.
Mr. Bennett.” The latter gentleman re
sponded to his name, and walked into the
dock, where he stood in scornful pride, and
answered with curling lip the demands as to
his name, age, and prolession. “Ever con
demned for any crime?” asked the Judge.
“Sir?” said Mr. Bennett disdainfully. “Ever
condemned for crime?” “Jamais!” “Ad
journed for eight days,” said the Judge iu the
same breath, hastily rising from the bench.
Mr. Bennett’s appearance at the bar was
very striking, and made the young lawyers
look at each other. I have rarely seen a
more interesting picture, but very much fear
that Mr. Beunett will be mulcted next week,
aud if he continues to look so scornfully upon
his judges, and answers iu such a disdainful
manner. Yet I must say there was nothing
ungentlemanly or rude m his manner, but his
perfect unconcern as to the result of the trial
must have been galling to some within the
room. Next week we shall probably see the
end of this affair, and learn whether or not
an American journalist can be held to ac
count iu a French court lor matter published
in another country, and one in which the
press is free, and juries unwilliog to convict
without some very strong reasons.

all injurious substances, as drugs, etc. Pure Hop

In this libel suit against Mr. Krciner, the
case was soon before the court, aud the testi
inouy taken in a few moments. It amounted
simply to this: that Mr. Kremer was away at
the time the article constituting the alleged
libel appeared; that Mr. Ryan clipped it from
the New York Times, and insested it in the
Register without malicious intention. A copy
of the journal was exhibited to show* that the
article was credited in due form. In a sub
sequent number there was a paragraph stating
that thero had been no intention to prejudice
M. de Brimont, who could have used the col
umns of the paper for correcting an involun
tary error if he had seen fit. Mr. Ryan testified
that he had taken the article from the Times
because it was a matter of interest to Ameri
cans in Europe, and in all matters pertaining
to the American colony in Paris he lelt
much interest as a lawyer felt in serving his
clients. He did not know cither the plaintiff
or the members of the Penniman family, and
hence could not have been actuated by bad
motives. Oa the other side, the journal was
laid before the tribunal as the piece de convic
tion, DeBrimont declaring that the article
was a libel upon him, and had caused him a
material and a moral prejndice. “Xe tribunal
apprtciera,” said the Judge, bowing to the
counsel for the defense to begin his plea.
THE DEFEN 9E.
M. Clery, the advocate of Mr. Kremer, is a
young man of fine talent, a remarkably fine
and striking face, an excellent voice, and a
delivery which is rarely excelled here. His
mode of speaking is very agreeable, and his
powers of sarcasm extremely telling. M.
Clery is also bound to make his mark in the
world, and will one day have a very large
business upon bis hands. He is the Bon-in-
law ot Goupil, well known in New York. In
two or three passages with De Brimont’s law
yer, Clery gave him what we call a “setting
dowd.,' and excited the smiles of all in the
court-room by his sarcastic remarks upon the
plaintiff, who, failing to get a living out of
his rich father-in-law, was trying to get
money from the public Press. Even if he
had not passed himself off for a Baron, he
belonged to an ancient family, and hence
must know that the honor of his
name could not bo saved by
money, even though burdened with debts
and fond of a life of idleness. He undoubted
ly intended to present the money to the poor,
if any were given him; for a man of old iami-
ly w ho, if he had not called himself a Baron,
had not been angry when called one by his
tailor and boot maker, mast blush to have it
said that he had sought money us an offset to
woanded honor. Oue need not go back to the
crusades in ancestral line to have a sentiment
like that. In this strain Clery went on for
some time, making the plaintiff tarn and twist
upon his bench in agony. But the moet tell
ing points were made upon letters from Mr.
Washburne and Gen. Read, who wrote that,
having been accustomed to the liberty of the
Press at home, they were really sorry to see
an American journalist before a French court,
to answer to a charge which would not, per
haps, have been received in America. 1 did
not catch the wording of these letters, as it
was just time then tho reporters were inter
rupting me.

Cincinnati Beer 6.6283 6.6025 88.0717 1.0157
The above analysis, made from a sample taken from
the same tanks from which we daily till casks for city
consumption and for shipment, conclusively estab
lishes the great superiority of our Lager Beers over
that made in Cincinnati, in that it contains a so nun-li
larger per ceutage of nutritious elements—dextrine,
(starch) sugar, albumen, ani pure hop resin. As no
BUgar is used in the manufacture, the saccharine mat
ter contained iu our I.ager Be* r is only that derived
from the vegetable ingredients employed.
We therefore confidently place our CITY BREWE
RY LAGER BEEU in open and square competition
with any other manufacture, assured that an a bever
age containing a considerably larger per ccntagc of nu
tritive and tonic propei ties, iu propoition to weight or
volume, than any other offered in the South, it com
mends itself t > all consumers as the most luallhful.
