March 25,1871. j The lowest barometer still continues over tho Eastern Stales, where high northwest winds have prevailed all day.

The dispatch from the Government at Versailles for volunteers to re-establish order in Paris, elicited a small re sponse in Havre. Commune has been re-estab lished in Versailles, where, it is said, the Mayor and General Prefect were imprisoned. No dis turbance occurred, however, and a proclama tion issued by the new government had a good effect. The town is quiet. Paris, March 25.—(Special to the New York Telegram:) The loyal battalions of the Na tional Guard occupy the market street Honore, Palais Royal, Bue Mont Martre, Grand Hotel, La Bourse, St. Lazare, and a railroad station. Tho population of Bologno are greatly ex cited over the events in the metropolis, and through public meetings express a desire to have the communistic revolutionists put down. The authorities have consequently sent mes sengers to Versailles offering the government the services of a large force officered by the best citizens of Bologne, to march direct to Paris and summarily end by force of arms tho dispacefal disorders that there continue. The Insurgent Committee has received in formation that delegates from Versailles, Ly ons, and Bordeaux, recently here, have return ed to their homes, and will quickly give the sig nal for a movement among the workmen in those cities, analagons to that in progress in Paris. General Chantard has been appointed com mander of the artillery by the Insergent Com mittee. The Mont Martres have increased their vigi- Ianoe. They stop all railroad trains bound to Versailles, and seize all ammunition found in the’cars. . Uoulvvell Once More. Washington, March 22.—It is rumored that Secretary Boulwell will shortly retire from the Treasury Department, to be succeeded by Sena tor Morton. A story is current that the Presi dent has become satisfied thst Bontwell’s finan cial policy is unpopular, and if continued will get the Administration into inextricable trouble. San Domingo.—The President stated to seve ral Senators, yesterday, that he had no inten tion of pressing the San Domingo business this session. Should the Commissioners arrive be fore Congress adjourns, their report will prob ably be sent in; bnt it is stated that no treaty of annexation will be submitted. It is consid ered by the warmest friends of the measure that to press annexation now would simply insure defeat. democratic strength In the house. The Democratic strength in the House will be increased to one hundred members by the gain in New Hampshire. Three more are expected from the Connecticut election, two from Cali fornia and two from Texas, which will make the House stand at the next session 136 Bepub- licans to 107 Democrats. The Democrats will then only lack fifteen votes to control the House. However, with the present number which de stroys the tWb-thirds rule, and the reinforce ments they are constantly receiving from tho Revenue Reform Republicans, they have thus far in the session carried every measure they have brought forward, and defeated all attempts of the Radicals at extreme legislation. THE WEST POINT KU-KLUX BUSINESS. No attention has been paid to the action of the House in regard to the West Point troubles, and it is not expected that any will be. Fleck- enger, one of the three cadets who were driven away by the mob of the first class, has been re appointed by hia member of Congress and will re-enter the Academy in June. The other two were not re-instated, nor can it be learned that any measures have been taken to punish the persons engaged in the lynching affair. The Secretary of War felt nnder no obligation to re gard tho House resolution, because it recom mended him to do what the law would not per mit, namely, to convene a court of inquiry which can only be done by the President, and tUEi President is understood to have said that the resolutions of the House were of no more con sequence than the doings of a town meeting.— Western Press dispatches. The following resolution was recently intro duced and adopted in the County Court at Nash ville : “Resolved, That the portrait nowplaced over the chair of the Judge of tins Court, and pur porting to be the likeness of the Father of our Country, General George Washington, bnt which looks more like the Jack of Clubs, be re moved from this hall, and the Court-house Com mittee be authorized to have a true likeness of the pare patriot, George Washington, put in its place.” Withdraws from the Contest. We find the following letter from the Hon. Nelson Tift in the Albany News, of yesterday. Comment npon it is deferred till onr next issue: Albany, Ga., March 21,187L To the Citizens of the Second Congressional District:—When I accepted your nomination as the candidate of the Democratic party for elec tion, to represent yon in Congress, it was with a purpose single to your interests and my duty, and the course which I now adopt is dictated by the same motives. In December last, as shown by the official re turns, I was elected to the 41st Congress by a majority of 500 votes, and to the 42d Congress by a majority of 504 votes. By means which have been explained in House Miscellaneous Document, No. 68, parts 1st, 2d and 3d, 41st Congress, 3d session, certificates of election were issued by Governor Bullock, to my oppo nent, B. H. Whiteley, for both the 41st and 42d Congress, upon which he hug been seated. I gave notice of contest for the seat in the 41st Congress, and subsequently for the 42d Congress, wjiile there was yet hope that the law would be vindicated. After mnoh delay and difficulty, I procured and placed before the Committee of Eleotions, certified copies of the election returns, convincing them that I was elected, and that the certificate was wrongfully issued to Mr. Whiteley. But a majority of the committee declined to report the faots, and permitted the wrong to he continued in the 41st, and to be repeated in the 42d Congress. This is bnt a repetition of the injustice of the Badical majority in cases from other States where Badical governors have usurped the rights of tho people and given certificates of election to the minority candidates of their own party—they have been seated and retained their seats in spite of contests which have shown that they were not elected. Judging from my experience and these facts, and from the facility which ha3 already been shown by onr opponents in Sumter and Pulaski counties in procuring false testimony to suit their purpose—as shown in the document above referred to—it would, in my opinion, be a waste of time and means to again prove by respecta ble citizens what has been already demonstrated, only to be denied by unscrupulous Badical par tisans whose testimony would again, as hereto fore, be taken as a sufficient pretext to justify the wrong which has been committed. With this conviction, I cannot willingly snb- ject onr people to the excitement, loss of time and means, and loss of labor from the crops which a long contest in tho different counties in the district would necessarily involve, with no prospect of redress. I regret the official de moralization and wrong which, in my judg ment, makes this course proper. Bnt such wrongs find their compensation in arousing the people to the dangers which threaten their in stitutions, and will thus aid the movement now in progress, which, in 1872, will drive the Bad ical party from power, regenerate the Govern ment and bring peace and prosperity to onr country. In again taking my place in the ranks by yonr side, I desire to say, that during my brief offi cial career, next to the consciousness of having performed my duty faithfully, according to the best of my judgment and ability, yonr confidence and approval has been my best reward, and will ever be remembered with gratitude. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Nelson Tift. Letter from Jolm Quincy Adams. The Atlanta Intelligencer, of yesterday, prints the following: Quincy, Mass., March 17,1871. Samuel Bard, Esq.: Dear Sm—I have received two copies of tho True Georgian, the first containing an able article on Judge Stephens’ speech, and the lat ter, on “The Present and the Future.” I need not say that the policy indicated seems to me wise, and the only ono which ensures success. The North can never be carried for a new revo lution. We must go forward and not back. We most demand self-government for all, and guar anty equal rights to every man. Democrats must be Democratic to succeed. Give a Democratic administration which shall secure the rights of the States and regard the limits of the Federal Constitution, and all of ns, South 03 well as North, can conduct our home matters a3 people at home desire, and if that is not the best way then the whole fabrio is a vision. Very respectfully, J. Q. Adams. Anarchy in Paris. What mischief are the moboerats' of Paris doing to. tho oanse of popular government in Europe! But the World draws from it another good lesson as follows: We wish the terrible experience of France might teach the abettors of centralization in thin country a wholesome lesson. The perma nence of onr republican institutions depends npon the equal diffusion of political life and po litical influence through all parts of the country. The form of a republio would be a hollow and deceitful mockery from tho day that central in fluence should prostrate local independence. The Tribune makes open proclamation that, like the House of Bepresentatives in 1862, it has no confidence in the pecuniary integrity of Simon Cameron, who snooeeds Charles Sumner at the head of the Committee of Foreign Rela tions, against whom, with all hia faults, the breath of that snspicion never blew. Condition of Mississippi.—Gov. ^corn’s let ter, an allusion to which has figured in our tele grams from Washington, says: I am informed that dispatches have been for warded to Washington derogating from the power of this government to enforce the law. I desire to correct that misrepresentation, and to state that it finds no justification in fact. A riot oconrred recently at Meridian, but was promptly suppressed. The parties are now un dergoing legal investigation. Some minor out rages have been committed in other points of the Alabama border in the night by parties in disguise. My only difficulty in these cases is to discover the wrong-doers, bnt that overcome, as I confidently hope it will be, this government is powerful to make them fear the consequences of their crimes. ’Save in these cases, Missis sippi presents an unbroken evidence of civil obe dience and order. It was this declaration of fact which drew from the Mississippi Radicals in Congress the charge that Alcorn was about to tom Democrat. Ex-Confederate Officers in Congress.— The following ex-Confederato officers occupy seats in the present House of Bepresentatives at Washington: F. M. B. Young, Dem., of Ga., Maj. Gen. C S A.

Hays, “ Ala., Captain “ What the Ex-Empebob Says.—A Dover (Eng land) correspondent of the World represents Louis Napoleon as expressing himself as follows at a recent interview at that place: “My return to France is only a question of time. Sooner or later, she will summon me to save her from the incapables, who are now dis playing their folly and madness in shedding her blood and plunging her into anarchy. My pretended deposition will never be ratified by the people. There are only two parties in France who possess real strength—the Repub licans and Imperialists—bnt the Empire alone is able to conduct France to true and perma nent liberty. The Orleanists possess only im-» aginary strength. They dare not venture an appeal to the popular wilL” The Emperor is in excellent health. Not Beaten by Defatlt ob Apathy.—The Boston Post has the following: This New Hampshire election has gone by default npon a short vote.—N. Y. Herald. The vote was 3000 in excess of 1870. Had the Republicans of New Hampshire shaken off the apathy which prevailed in that State, and done their whole duty on Tuesday, we should not listen now to the exhuberant shouts of the opposition, or note the ill-oon- eealed chagrin of those who have for so many years found comfort in the returns from the Granite State.—N. Y. Commercial Advertiser. The Republicans cast a thousand more votes tins year than they did last It is not a “short vote” or “apathy” which has prodaoed the re sult in New Hampshire, but conversion. Tlie Seint-Koya) .leddiog. The York Herald, of Wednesday, has a spe cial telegraphio report of the marriage of the Princess Lonise to the Marquis of Lorn, which wa3 solemnized last Tuesday, at one. o’clock, at tho Royal Chapel of St. George, Windsor Castle. The Londoners were much dissatisfied that it did not take place at St. Paul’s or Westminster, It was a grand holiday—the guests were nu merous—the people ont in great force—the bells pealed—flowers—triumphal arches and festive decorations were thick, and the goose hung hifih. We excise the following particulars, so that in case any of our young lady readers should unexpectedly be called upon to marry a prince of the blood royal, they will know how to The interior of the Chapel of St. George presented a most raagnificeqt appearance. The walls and front of the galleries were deaorated with the various knightly banners which hang in the church by right of honor. There were men in the most gorgeous uniforms, ladies in the richest robes, the sparkling and sheen of diamonds, and a glorious sunshine streaming in through the ancient windows, and lighting up the scene. Premier Gladstone, the remain der of the Cabinet Ministers—I believe* every one of them—the foreign Ambassadors serving “near” the Court of her Majesty, the Queen, with the very “cream” of the “society” of Great Britain, were present. Of the bridal par ty the first arrival was the most noble, the Duke of Argyll, father of the bridegroom. The Duke was dressed in full Highland costume, the ma terial of the richest description, and the orna ments of gold. The Duke was accompanied by his wife, the Duchess of Argyll—the “dear Lady Leveson Gower,” of Queen Victoria’s early household—mother of the Marquis of Lorn. The Duchess of Argyll was robed in a costume fashioned of what is known as cloth of silver. Her- Royal Highness, the Princess of Wales, wore a robe of bine satin with a train of bine velvet. Her Royal Higness entered the chapel leading the children of the Prince of Wales, the little ones clad in full Highland dress. The Princess Christian—Princess Helena Angnsta, sister of the bride—wore a robe of pink satin trimmed with white lace. There who appeared in a perfect blaze of scarlet, gold and diamonds. After a short time the bride groom, the Marqnis of Lorn, entered the church horn the reception room which had been set apart for Ms use. The magnificent choir of St. George’s chapel intoned an anthem immediate ly. The Marqnis of Lorn was attended by his groomsmen, Earl Persey and Lord Leverson Gower. All three of the noble personages were dressed in the uniform of the Volunteer Argyll shire Rifle Artillery—green cloth, trimmed with silver. THE MARQUIS AT THE ALTAR. The Marqnis of Lorn appeared pale ond ner vous as he approached and stood by the altar. Queen Victoria then entered. Her Majesty was robed in a dress of black satin, cut very low around the neck. She wore a coronet of diamonds and a long veil of the richest lace. Her Royal Highness the Princess Lonise—the bride elect— followed her mother, the Queen. The Prin cess wore a dress of white satin with train of white, velvet, a veil of Honiton lace, and a wreath of orange flowers. Eight bridesmaids—daughters of dukes and earls— bore up the train of the bride as she advanced to the altar. The noble ladies who were honored by the Queen by being named to perform this act of friendship and duty were:—Lady Constance Seymour, daughter of the Marquis of Hertford; Lady Elizabeth Campbell, daughter of the Duke of Argyll; Lady Florence Lennox, daughter of the Duke of Richmond; Lady Mary Butler, daughter of the Marchioness of Or monde ; Lady Alico.Fitzgerald, daughter of the Marquis of Kildare; Lady Grace Gordon, daughter of the Dowager Marchioness of Hunt- ly; Lady Florence Montagu, daughter of the Earl of Sandwich; Lady _ Agatha Russell, daughter of Earl Rnssell. The bridesmaids were dressed in pure white silk. They had on white necklaces and wreaths of roses, and ap peared beantifnl and elegant in their compara tively simple toilets. The bridesmaids did not wear veils. Qneen Victoria and the Princess Lonise knelt before the high altar of the chnrch daring a few moments, engaged in prayer. The Marquis of Lorn, attended by the groomsmen, advanced to the altar immediately afterwards. The Lord Bishop of London, assisted by their Lordships the Most Reverend the Bishops of Oxford and Worcester, performed the ceremony of marriage according to the rito of the Pro testant Episcopal Chnrch. Queen Victoria gave away the bride. The Princess Lonise made the reponses to the clergy in a clear, audi ble voice, but the bridegroom, Lord Lorn, was almost inaudible in his replies." At the very moment of the conclusion of the ceremony the Queen took the bride in her arms, folded her to her heart and gave her & hearty kiss. The Marqnis of Lorn bent on his knee and kissed the Queen’s hand. Tho royal party then re ceived the congratulations of all who were en- tilled by rank to offer them. After this the party quitted the chapel slowly. The bride and bridegroom and the Queen were received with cheers by the crowd outside, and “wedding favors” were waved on both sides during the passage of the cortege back to the Castle of Windsor. WEDDING FETE. A wedding breakfast was served in the Castle to all the invited guests who had witnessed the ceremony. The royal party breakfasted sepa rately and without company. Two immense “right royal" wedding cakes were served to the gnests and people. The bride retired for the purpose of changing her dress. She reappeared after a short time clad in a most charming trav elling costnme, made of the Campbell tartan plaid. In company with her husband, Lord Lorn, the Princess took a carriage for Clare mont, where the happy pair will spend the honeymoon. The road was ornamented with trinmphal arches along the entire route from Windsor to Claremont. The people were out in great force and cheered the bride and bride groom with an uninterrupted good will all the way from the chapel grounds until they entered their new home. The event is being celebrated with salvos of artillery in all the principal cities of the United Kingdom. The Colobed Members from Florida.—A Washington letter writer relates this of the suf- frage-slinger from Florida: There is no end to the illustrations whioh go to prove that we are all creatures of habit.— The Hon. JosiahT. Walls, colored member from Florida, is or was a tonsorial professor in the days when colored men could make themselves useful in other departments of life remote from lawmaking. The other morning he chanced to lounge into the CongreBsionaal barber shop, which opens upon the floor of the House, to kill time while the clerk was monotonously chant ing a long journal. Hon. John T. Wilson, the illustrious Usurer and Nincompoop from the Eleventh Ohio District, came into have the rough meadow of his cheek mown. He threw himself into a vacant chair and twisted his long legs together like a doughnut There was no barber at leisure to serve him. Seeing the sit uation, and urged by the impulse of the moment, Walls jumped from his seat, and seizing* a enp and brnsh, proceeded to copiously lather the lower end of Mr. William’s florid phiz. Before the deft manipulator could find a razor to hone, he realized his mistake, and quietly, though much abashed, slid out of the saloon and re sumed his chair in the House. The respect for Mr. Walls upon the John Brown side of the hall was not in the least modified by this incident. The Rural Carolinian fob Afbil—if possi ble, more full of good things than usual—comes to our editorial table a welcome visitor. Well edited, handsomely illustrated, and replete with valuable information for the planter, farmer and gardener. We need, however, make no special praise of this magazine. The reputation it has obtained, and the appreciation in which it is held by its tens of thousands of readers, axe the Burest marks of its great worth. We cannot too highly commend the talent and exceedingly practical ability of its editor-in- chief, Colonel D. H. Jacques, who, aided by a valuable and influential number of the best ag- ricultural writers of this country, has made the magazine what It is. One remarkable feature of this magazine is its prompt delivery. It is mailed in time to reach every subscriber by the first of the month, and if there is anv failure it must be in the Postoffice Department This promptness is a characteristic of the entire business manage ment of the proprietors. It is not only in the Rural Carolinian it is shewn, bnt in every detail of their large and flourishing business, of which the Rural Carolinian, as large an enieiprise as that is, is only a small department Sucscription $2 per annum.
