THE WRECK OP THE BOHEMIAN.

Papers received by the Hibernian give parti-
culars respecting the inquest which was held upon the
bodies of some of the unfortunate 00000000/0 who were
drowned through the wreck of the Montreal ocean steam-
ship Bohemian, which took place in Cute Bay, off the
shore of Cape Elizabeth, on the 22nd of February Wt. The
jury returned • verdict to the effect that the sinking of the
Bohemian was " caused by her collision with Alden's
Rock at about eight o'clock on the evening of the 22nd
of February, when running at the rate of one and oat,
half to two and two and a half knots per hour. The
collision was owing, lit, to an error in the judgment of
Captain Borland as to the distance from Cape Elizabeth
lights, which were then visible ;2nd, that, even bad the
'Unmet been where Captain Borland supposed her to be,
it would have been • coarse of wisdom and caution to
have taken • more eastward direction than he did take,
till Portland light was made; 3rd, that said collision
would not probably have occurred had there been a bell-
boat on Alden's Rock ; 4th, that though the weather
was mild and calm, and two steamers were overdue,
while another wu expected, the pilot employed by the
owams of the line was not is a position to observe the
signals made by the steamer. Most of the painengers were
drowned, thirty in all, in oonsequeoce of the swamping of
• boat while being launched. A boat, known as No. 6,
left the ship when but pertially filled with passengers, and,
though repeatedly ordered back by the &Boers, refused to
return, and this refusal contributed to Mavens the loin of
life." The jurors add that, "after the steamer struck,
every officer connected was at his post, and officers and
men worked with energy and good judgment rarely
equalled and never summed, to avoid the loss of life,
and W secure the pueeogers from threatened death. The
Steamship Company are specially worthy of commendation
for their efforts for the recovery of the bodies of the
drowned, and in defraying the tapeless connected there- I
upon ; and the Steamship Company, the Board of Trade,
and citizens of Portland and the citizens of are Elizabeth
have been most earnest and untiring in their efforts to
relieve the sufferings of those around, and to forward them
to their several destinatima.” When the Hibernian left
the Bohemian was still firmly Seed on a rock, with from
30 to 50 feat of water under the bow sod stern, the centre'
of the vessel only touching. The arrangements were
nearly ready for raising her, and the wreckers were confident
of success.

ADDRESS OF THE EMPEROR TO THE
TROOPS.

VIENNA, JAL 11

The Emperor addressed the officers and men of
the Execution troops, intended for Sleswig, at the
review yesterday.
His Majesty said :—" I have assembled you
for a farewell greeting. Keep on good terms with
your Prussian brethren in arms. I know that you
will do your duty as if you were at home, and
should it come to blows, will show your courage."
The finance committee were engaged until a late
hour last night in discussing the demand of the
government for ten millions of florins to cover the
expenses of the expedition to Sleswig.
Count Rechberg and Herr von Schmerling were
present. The proceedings show that, in con-
sequence of the extent of the present
expedition, the demand for credit might
be increased According to the statement
of the ministers the government wished to prevent
the European war apprehended to follow the adop-
tion of the Hessian motion, and to localise hostili-
ties.

Herr von Schmerling defended the etepe taken
by Count Reelberg, and said that he agreed with
his policy.

Bayonet:—" M. de Smiley, a French subject, has arrived
at Jerusalem, and is exploring the graves of the holy pro-
phets. Among the number is the tomb of Saint Kolbe
&bona, the sarcophagus of which he has taken, with the
bones contained therein, and he declares that be will do
the same to the ocher holy burial places. We are told
that he holds a finnan for so doing from the Sublime
Porte. We beg you to intervene with all your influence
and iatert.nade with the Sultan. in order that a stop may
be put to this desecration." The same letter 'eye that
this news was transmitted by telegraph by Y. ethstieux,

representation was made to the Grand Vizir, Fwd Pasha,

ROME, JAL 18, Evicrurc.

The Pope has received a deputation of 300
catholic& from different countries presenting an
address of fidelity and devotion to the Holy See,
and protesting against usurpations and sacrileges.
His Holiness replied that he desired to leave the
patrimony of the church intact to his successors.
He would consequently not enter into any ar-
I rangement or treaty contrary to that end. He
placed his confidence not in the strength of arms,
but in a protecting Providence and justice.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

(Before the Amide/Waage.)
Wafter Stephenson, who was found guilty lad maim of
unlawfully. and m•liciosulT injuring one of Turner's most
valuable pictures in the National Gallery, was brought up
for sentence.
Mr. Cooper said be appeared on behalf of the trustees of
the National Gallery, who would have been failing in their
duty to the public had they not prosecuted this man for
really we of the most wicked mite of spoliation that could
well bn conceived. It would be remembered that the pri-
soner was seen in the National Gallery with a knife, which
he deliberately struck eight or nine times into one of Tur-
ner's most valuable pictures, which that illustrious artist
had bequeathed to the nation. When asked why he did it,
be said he was excited, that the picture was misty, and that
he entertained a great dislike for the man. The trustees had
no object but to protect the national property. consisting se
it did of works of art of almost inestimable value, and
this man injured the picture because be disliked the painter.
Inquiries had been made respecting him, the results of
which were no doubt before the court.
The Assistant-Judge said the matter bad been inquired
into, and it was stated that the prisoner committed the act
through distress of mind, but there could be no doubt that
he perfectly well knew that he was perpetrating • serious
injury on a valuable work of art. The property of the
public in mown= must be protected from such outrages,
and the sentence upon the prisoner was that he be kept to
bard labour for six calendar months.

HAYMARKET.

Sheriden's comedy of the School for Scandal
was played at this- theatre last night, and will be performed
spin to-night "by particular desire." The house wee
arowded in every part, and every point in this brilliant play
wee heartily enjoyed and loudly applauded. The cut,
though it would bear improvement here and there, wee, on
the whole, more perfect than any that could be obtained
at any other theatre. Sir Peter Teazle was represented by
Mr. Chippendale, Sir Benjamin Backbite by Mr. Backstass,
Charles Surface by Mr. Puree, Joseph Surface by Mr.
Howe, and Crabtree by Mr. Compton, In the spirit of
genuine comedy : the rest of the characters were respect-
ably portrayed. The faros of Lend Me Fine SAiiinpa, it
which Mr. Backstops is unequalled for riotous, overdowing
humane, forms an agreeable addition to the comedy.

ADELPHI.

Mr. Webster made his re-appearance at this

to be fully appreciated. The cast of the piece has not been
much altered. Mr. Toole, Mr. Billington, Mr. Stuart, Mr.
Paul Bedford, and Miss Woolgar play their original!cbarac•
tens, and Mr. Arthur Stirling represents the Abbe in the
place of Mr. David Fisher.

Wyss,

of hie proforicsal duty. But with singular
iudiaccation he thought it docent to attack

the Lunacy

and Dr. Brans in

such a fashion as to draw upon himself the rebuke
of the prodding Judge. There can be no doubt
that those authorities and Dr. BUS only per-
formed a public duty. The misfortune is that
it should be possible for a man in the position of
5.1131171 L Pours to escape notice for so many
years. It is not long Ind • farmer was tried at
Exeter for a very similar offence and was con-
victed. The facts then proved did much
to enlighten the people of Devonshire. It
is to be hoped that the story of ROOM
and Smsuat Pont= will have the same bene-
ficial effect upon the inhabitants of Cornwall.
The true nature of lunacy has certainly not yet
reached the vulgar mind. SAMUEL PORT/La has
indeed been convicted, but he has been recom-
mended to mercy by the jury on the singular
ground that he did not know the law. It might I
be thought that humanity was • duty which every
man owes to his neighbour, without the command
of the legislature. But axording to old notions
lunatics are no more than wild beasts, and these
notions must be eradicated before juries can take
a reasonable view of the obligation incurred by
the sane to the insane.

THE foundation of an Empire is a difficult
enterprise even whenthe sword has most completely
done its work. This the Archduke MAXIMILIAN
now finds to his inconvenience. His Imperial
Highness had much to arrange at Paris, and left
much unarranged when he departed. One of his
chief difficulties was connected with the furnishing
of his Imperial treasury. Not that money was
not forthcoming in abundance. The eminent
financiers of that capital were by no means unwilling
to help him : on the contrary : they wanted to do
too much for him. It is well known that
they are men of ample means and the grandest
conceptions. The Emperor designate could have
had any amount of money he required, if he had
been able to appreciate the noble projects un-
folded before him. The Banker-Princes of
Paris are not vulgar•money lenders, and the
operation they were ready to undertake for
the ARCHDUKE was nothing less than the complete
financial organisation and occupation of the
new Empire. A National Bank which they were
eager to found, a paper currency which they would
supply and regulate, formed, in connection
with proposals for an export duty on the precious
metals, the conditions, and, as it ultimately proved,
the sole conditions, under which they would touch
the required loan. The ARCHDUKE had the good
sense to see how foolish it would be to impose
such a burden on Mexico, and refused to sell his
new subjects before he had his Empire in possession.
Thus the grand "combinations" of which we
have heard so much of late are dissolved, and the
ARCHDUKE will go to Mexico with a small sum of
money in hand, trusting to his good fortune to be
able to make better terms in the capital of his
new Empire than the magnificent ideas of Parisian
financiers permitted him to do on this side the
Atlantic.

THE TRIAL AT AIX.
(nom OUR OWN CORRF-SPONDENT.)

PARIS. MOIcDAT EVIDSVO.

The story of the new plot, the existence of which
the Monifeur of to-day denies, had its origin, as I
hear, in the following circumstances :—When the
Archduke Maximilian quitted the Tuileries for
London, he accidentally left behind him a casket
containing some jewellery of uo great value, and
about 500 francs in money. He telegraphed for
his property, and then it was found that it had
been appropriated by two servants in the palace.
They said, to excuse themselves, that they were
under the impression that the archduke bad left
the box with its contents as a present for them ;
but this version not being considered admissible,
they were arrested for theft. Out of these facts
grew the tale that a box full of Orsini bombe had
been found in the Tuileries, and that arrests had
been made in the entourage of the court.
Count Charles de Nieuwerkerke, formerly a gen-
tlemen of the chamber of Charles X., died in Paris
yesterday, aged 75. He was the father of the
superintendent of the hue arts.

The extraordinary trial at Aix is still giing on,
and excites immense ictervit throughout the south
of France. It was interrupted for a great portion
of two successive days by the illness of A juryman.
Oue of the jury hal been takes ill early in the
proceedings, and his place had been supplied,
according to law, by one of the two supplemental
jurors in waiting. But when at the sitting of the
court the other day it was announced that another
juryman, who had obtained leave to go to Mar-
seilles for the night, was too unwell to return,
the presiding judge said lie was afraid to resort to
the only remaining supplemental juror, because the
trial was likely to last a long while, and if another
man were to break down the case would have to be
tried over again at another session. The Procureur-
General telegraphed to Marseilles to know whether
there was any chance of the sick juryman being
able to attend the next day, and after a
delay of some hours received a medical
certificate to the effect that be was very bad,
and would be utterly unable to come. In this di-
lemma the judge asked the jury and the prisoner's
counsel to help him to come to a decision. The
Procureur-General proposed that by consent the
trial should be recommenced then and there, but
this expedient was declined. The jury at last de-
cided that, notwithstanding the telegraphic me-
dical certificate, their colleague might perhaps not
be so ill as was represented, and that the least of
two evils would be to adjourn for a day. Curiously
enough, the invalid juror appeared in the box on
Saturday morning, and said lie hoped to be able to
sit out the trial. The evidence ou Saturday and

TUESDAY EVEI4ING, MARCH Is, 1864.

Sunday consisted d conflicting medical evidabee as
to the possibility of Maurice Roux having put the
rope round his own neck, and tied up his own
bands. The porter of the court was made a " sub-
ject," laid upon a table, and in the presence of
judge and jury tied in the way in which Maurice
Roux was described to have been found by the
witnesses who cut the cords. The judge himself
tied his bands behind him, and one of the medical
witnesses bound himself hand and foot to illustrate
his testimony. Letters from Aix say that this cord
practice is now a favourite amusement in all the
clubs, cafes, and drawing-rooms of the town. Dr.
Tardieu, of Paris, g►ve a most confident opinion
that Maurice Roux was an impostor, and that he had
deceived the doctors who attended him. He be-
lieved it to be true that he was in a state of
asphyxia caused by the gradual pressure of the
rope which he had put round his own neck, but he
said that this asphyxia must have been very recent
—probably not of more than half an hour's dura-
tion—and could not possibly have been going on
for several hours as the prosecutor alleged. He
denied that the small excoriation on the nape of the
neck was the result of a blow, and said that the
man could not have been stunned by a blow with-
out the external consequences of it being apparent.
He believed that the dumbness of Roux, when in-
terrogated by the Judge of Instruction, was simu-
lated. This opinion is supported by several pro-
vincial swoons of eminence. On the other hand,
several Montpellier doctors maintain that Maurice
was stunned by a blow which had produced what
they call in French commotion.
At the Bourse there is scarcely any change.

THE EXECUTION OF LATOUR.
(nom OUR OWII CORIZSPONDZIIT4
PARIS, MONDAY EVINING.
. _

Latour has been executed notwithstanding the
mystet f which still shrouds at least a portion of
the truth regarding the murders at Labastide.
Audouy since his condemnation to hard labour for
life has persisted in declaring his entire ignorance
of the whole affair, and this in spite of promises
of commutation. The authorities who investi-
gated the affair and got up the case, as well as the
judge who sentenced Latour, are persuaded that
six or seven men were engaged in this tragic plot,
so skilfully conducted that only one man suffers
the last sentence of the law. You will remember
that at a certain distance from Bsillard traces of
blood were discovered. The authorities at hrst
thought that one of the murderers must have been
wounded, and that at this spot his bandages had
fallen off. As neither Latour nor Audouy had
scars, the blood was set down to a scheme
to deceive justice, in the same way that it was
imagined that the bodies of the victims had been
mutilated to make it appear that vengeance and not
robbery had been the object of the assassins. The
police declared that some animal must have been
killed and dragged along the road in order to throw
them off the scent. This was searching rather far
for presumptive evidence. The instruments with
which the murders were committed have never
been found, nor have the clothes in which Latour
is said to have accomplished his part in the bloody
work yet been produced. The cart and donkey
which Audouy has described as driving along a
certain road have vanished also. Audouy still
denying all participation in the crime, has more
than once expressed his astonishment that the evi-
dence adduced against him did not send him to the
guillotine. Latour, on the other hand, long in-
sisted that there could be no serious intention of
carrying out the sentence so unjustly passed on
him. The former escapes, the latter has suffered
death.

I When the news spread round Foix that Latour
was to be executed this morning, crowds of people
flocked into the town. At 7 o'clock the prisoner
arrived on the place of execution. As he bad fre-
quently declared himself a mussulman, no priest
was in attendance. Latour looked round him with
assurance, maintaining an attitude of pride hard
to describe. He bad written some verses, which he
said he should sing on his way to execution. He
was as good as his word, and sang with a firm voice.
Arrived at the scaffold, he examined the blade
without any apparent emotion, and then lightly
mounted the steps. On the platform he threw a
last look at the blade of the guillotine, and then
commenced the " refrain" of his verses (some three
hucdred). He had got half through the quatrain
• second time when a dull sound was heard, and all
w►s over with Jaques Latour.

TURIN, Nov. 30.
To-day's debates were opened by Senator Sclopis.
You wi►l, perhaps, remember that as soon as the
Convention of Paris and the transfer of the capital
became known, Count Sclopis, w b o WAS then thepresi-
dent of the senate, wet in his resignation to the King,
thus openly declaring himself adverse to the new
treaty. Rightly or wrongly—for Italians are
rather hasty in accusing people—the nob:e count
was considered one of the first who, in the sad
days of the 21st and 22nd September, excited the
population of Turin. For this reason, and, per-
haps, many others, it was expected that Senator
Sclopis would have not only spoken against the Con-
vention, but violently spoken. This was not, however,
the case, for though be declared himself one of Its
opponents, yet he did so in a very moderate tone,
and in a manner which showed that he is a practical
statesman. Senator Gattone, Prince of Motiteruo,
a Neapolitan, spoke next, and though young, he
spoke very fairly in support of the treaty. The
more important speeches, however, of to-day's
sitting were delivered by Senators Ricotti and
Durand° ; the former a professor and the director
of the Turin University ; the latter the Minister
of Foreign Affairs in Rattazzi's Cabinet.
