THE LATE M. PIETRI,

A telegraphic despatch, received yesterday, an
pounces the death of M. Pierre Marie Pietri, Senator
of the Empire. He had long been in declining
health, and before his death had been visited by the
Emperor and Prince Napoleon, besides receiving the
spiritual consolations of the communion at the hands
of the Archbishop cf Paris. M. Pietri was a Cor-
sican, and was born about 1810 at Sartene. Ho
studied law at Aix, was called to the bar of the
Cour Royale, and was what would be called in the
Temple " devil" to M. Cremieux, afterwards the
well-known Hebrew Minister of Justice in 1848,
whose caustic letter to Lord Brougham, in which
he declined to nationalise the noble and learned
lord unless the latter resigned his English status
and pension, afforded much amusement in this coun-
try at the time.
At this time M. Pietri was a Republican, and in
Jane, 1832, signed the protest drawn up by M.
Ledru Rollin against the state of siege. For 18
years nearly he was sent to professional " Coven-
try he was, as he said," sur la freche." In 1848
he joined the Republican movement, and, under
the Provisional Government, was made commissary-
general of Corsica, in which capacity he was elected
deputy fir the island, " as an act of respect
for the Republic," being third on a list
of six which contained the names of three
Bonapartes. In the Assembly he was named on
the ce.nmittee of home affairs. He voted with
the Left party Against the prosecution of Louis
Blanc and Caussidere, against the establishment of
nal surveillance, for the
state of siege and perso.
decree for limiting the hours f work, for a progres-
sivee? duty, Sec. He strongly supp: rted the famous
amendment of M. Grevy in favour of the appoint-
ment of a president of the council of Ministers
instead of a President of the Republic. Artic:;lB4l,
43, and 45, bearing on this point were, howeve:,
rejected by 643 votes against 158. In spite of his
opposition to a President of the Republic, M. Pietri
distinguished himself by his support of the present
Emperor of the French when a candidate for that
office. Then he belonged to the " party of order,"
renouncing his somewhat strongly pronounced Re-
publican opinions. He voted with M. Rateau on
that deputy's famous proposal in 1842 to dissolve
the Constituent Assembly, in order to rid the Go-
vernment from the opposition of the Republican
party—a proposal which was carried by 470 to 337
votes. In the Assembly M. Pietri, now a Republi-
can resipiscens, devoted to law, order, and Napo-
lecnism, advocated the suppression of clubs, and
supported the disastrous Italian expedition, the end
of which is yet to cone. He received his reward in
due time—he was appointed in 1849 Prefect of
Ariege, and in 1857 Prefect of Doubs and the
Haute Garonne. Towards the end of January,
1852, this indefatigable servant of the Tuileries was
appointed Prefect of Police in the room of M. de
Maupas, who was called to a higher office in con-
nection with the administration of justice. M. Pietri
held this office till the early part of the year 1858.
He was nominated a senator of the empire June 9,
1857 ; chevalier of the Legion of Honour, 1850; and
grand officer of that order June 17, 1856.
M. Pietri was concerned in the annexation of
Savoy and Nice to the French empire, and his
manipulation of the votes of the population, taken
by the blessed instrumentality of universal suffrage,
was so successful as to insure him in its ultimate
results the favour of the Emperor and the execration
of the British House of Commons, excepting Mr.
John Blight, who said " Perish Savoy."

DEATH OF CAYOUR'S BROTIIER.—The Marquis
Gustave Cavour, eldest surviving brother of the
late Count Cavour, has just died of apoplexy at Turn, In
1848 the deceased belonged to th Conservative party, and
was one of the founders of the Armenia, at the head of
which journal he remained until 1851. From the time of
his brother's accession to office he gradually fell off from
his former associates, and in 1859 was completely in accord
with the Piedmontese Government. He was at first a great,
admirer of Father Passaglia, whom he kept at his house for
some time, but at length got tired of him. Of the Cavour
family there now only remains Count Eginard, younger
son of the marquis. The eldest brother died in Lombardy
in 1818, where he was serving as lieutenant of artillery.
The marquis leaves a daughter married to Count Alfieri.
DIE DANISH BLOCKADE.—Lord Russ :ill has
received a despatch from Sir Augustus Paget, her
Majesty's Minister at Copenhagen, forwarding a copy of a
note which had been addressed to him by the Danish
Minister for Foreign Affairs, notifying the establishment of
the blockade, and stating that neutral vessels will be allowed
to the Ist of April to clear out of the blockaded ports :
" bI. Quaade also states that if in any special case it should
happen that this delay is not sufficient for the clearing out
of the neutral ships, the officer in command of the blockad-
ing force is authorised to grant, on demand of the consular
agent, a further delay for their free departure."

WHO POSSIBLY CAN THEY BE P—The following
gentlemen have been added to the National Shakspere Com-
mittee :—Cyrus Field, Esq , New York ; J. P, Lasauta,

THE WOODEN-LEG FlßE.—Li.ucoln was so hard
run for troops once, that he sent out a wooden-
legged regiment as a forlorn hope, the main army,followfr
on behind. Slowly stumping on, the poor wn^
~gen legs in
advance grew tired, lay down and 0--
-.pc. So, I caught them,
unbuckled their legs. v,'"
which I made large fires under
our cam- '
sire ;ply filled with water from the Rap,
pahannock, sei;;A a Federal fire•engino that was just pass-
ing, and playing boiling water on the advancing foe, boa
them back faster than they came. The wooden-legged
troops had Icen released as soon as a sufficient number of
trees had been cut down to furnish them with new legs,—
