ROYAL INSTITUTION.

Professor Faraday delivered the fourth lecture of his
present course on Saturday the subject being " Electric
Attractions." He commenced by observing that the various
kinds of attraction he had previously noticed are constant
in their actions, but the attractions now under considera-
tion are only exerted under certain conditions, and they are
changeable, and may be transferred from one substance to
another. The attraction of light paper cylinders by excited
rods of glass and of shell lac, which drew the cylinders
after them along the table, was the first illustrationsof
this kind of attraction. He then showed the influence
of excited electrics on a suspended hollow paper sphere
made of rings of stiff paper placed transversely within
each other, so as to form a light spherical body conve-
nient for experimenting with. In the first instance the
sphere and glass rod were shown to possess no apparent
attraction to each other until the glass was rubbed with
silk ; and then, after attracting the sphere, and thus com-
municating a portion of electricity to it, the opposite con-
dition of repulsion was produced between them. Professor
Faraday exhibited the excitement of electrical attraction
in a variety of ways, and showed that in many ordinary
actions electricity is excited, though we are unconscious of
its presence. In moving the feet on a carpet, and in
brushieg and combing the hair, for instance, electricity is
excited, of which he presented illustrations. By rubbing
his feet on a piece of carpet whilst touching the top of a
delicate electrometer, the gold leaves diverged when he
withdrew his hand; and a long lock of hair was made highly
electrical on being combed. Professor Faraday stated that
by combing a lady's hair when she was standing on an insu-
lating stool, constructed of four inverted glass tumblers,
with a boot resting of the top, sufficient electricity was
excited to admit of sparks being emitted from her body.
The friction of two silk ribbons, by drawing them through
a piece of flannel, was shown to produce decided elee;aical
phenomena, which were still more strongly exhibited when
two strips of gutta percha were similarly treated. Having
exemplified the excitement of electrical attraction by vari-
ous kinds of manual friction, the large plate electrical
machine of the Royal Institution was put in action, after
its structure had been explained. The history of that
particular instrument is rather peculiar. It 'was one of
two made by Montgolfier for the Emperor Napoleon 1.,
which was brought over to this country and bought for
presentation to the institution. Though many years have
elapsed since it was made, it is in point of efficiency
nearly equal to the best modern plate machines of
the same size. In directing attention to tho powerful
spark drawn from the prime conductor of this apparatus,
Professor Faraday observed that it was exactly similar to
the sparks obtained on rubbing a stick of sealing-wax on
the back of a oat; every one, indeed, knew what au elec-
trical spark was, except the philosopher, to whom it re-
mains a thing inscrutable, for of its nature nothing is really
known. Electricity, he said, appears to be the most spiri-
tual and one of the most important of the attractive forces,
though scarcely any of its phenomena were known till the
middle of the last ce• tary. With the aid of the machine
several electrical phen-ineua were exhibited ; some show-
ing, on an enlarged scale, the actions of attraction and re-
pulsion, the intimate: relation between which apparently
dissimilar forces, however, was not explained ; as well as
other experiments not directly bearing on the immediate
subject of the lecture, but exemplifying different manifes-
tations of electricity. The beautiful luminosity of the
electric discharge was shown by transmitting the chiv ge
of a Lepton jar through the links of a suspended chain
and through a row of eggs, also by passing sparks through
a long exhausted tube. Its heating power was illustrat
by the transmission of a spark through a long insulated
wire to some gun cotton, which it explc led. Professor
Faraday observed that though the great blast of gun-
powder at the Round Down cliff at Dover was e3ected
by voltaic electricity, yet most of the blasts in the chalk
rocks, in constructing the railway between Folkestone
and Dover, were exploded by sparks from a common elo -
tried' machine.

(From Galignames llessenyer.,
Perris was plunged into profound constorngteion
on Saturday evening; by the' report that the Aftsh-
bishop of Path, whilst officia ting in the 'church of
St Etienne-du-Mont, bad bE.en murdered 1.4- a
priest. At first no one could Idt,lievo in the rea-
lity of so awful a crime, committE.d in such a place
and by such a baud ; but it was coon ascertained,
lamentable to relate, that the said _intelligence was
only too true. The following is a d.otailed account
of this dreadful crime :
Satur Jay was the fete of St. Genevieve, and the arch.
bishop went to the church, according to ameouncemeut,
to preside over the opening of the annual veuraine in
honour of the saint, who is patroness of tho ciey of Paris.
After vespers, and after a sermon preached by Mgr.
Lacarriere, bishop of La Basse-Terre, a proue,Esion was-
formed and paraded round the church in the customary
way, the archbishop in his robes walking at the head (1
the lady patronesses of St. Genevieve. Just as the
archbishop arrived opposite the outer door nun was
about to turn up the nave, a man advanced nwvards
him from the crowd of spectators, and rem wing the
prelate's cape with his left hand, plueg,,ed ieith great
force with his right hand a large Catalan knife into
the prelate's breast, near the heart, exclaiming as he did
so, "Down with the goddess I" (A bas la cleesse ) The
archbishop fell back two steps, cried out " Ah, le
malheureux I" staggered, and fell into the arms of the
priests who surrounded him. The wounded prelate
moaned two or three times, as if in great suffering, and
was the moment after bathed in the blood which
flowed from the wound. He was.immediateiv conveyed
into the vestry, and medical assistatice eent for but all
human aid was found to he usele-s, as he expired atinest
immediately. The fatal blew was struck ,vith such ex-
traordinary rapidity that it wa-, impossible to prevent it.
The assassin, a young man of about thirty years of age,
dressed in dark coloured clothe, made no attempt to
escape, and was immediately seized ; he had at the mo-
ment the knife, from whicii blood was dropping, siill in
his hand. Ju-t before the venerable prelate breathed
his last, the Abbe Surat, vicar-geeeral, who was elate
to him, gave him absolution.
The assausia was conveyed to the rnairie of the 12th
arrondissement, and M. M goon, substitute of the
Procureur Imperial, And M. Trei:bard, examining ma-
gietrate, were im media tely summoned, and curritneeced an
interrogatory. M. Cord o u in, Proadiaur I dipariaW and ----s
Pietri, Prefect of Police, subsequenily irterrogatei
also. From what he said it appears that lie is a priee:,
ef the diocese of Meaux, named Verges. He had been
four or five times interdicted for misconduct, and sore%
.nonthe back was :wain suspended for having preached'
against the dogma of the rentnaculete Conception. It.
Nevernber last he displayed great zeal in deleneing a -
woman rho was tried at Mein t ter poimuime her hus-
band, and though she was c 'evicted of the crone, end
condemned to hard labour for life, he printed a pamphlet
declaring that she was inn-went, and casting the grossest
ituputatiens on the julgea and the public prosecutor.
The pamphlet was seized by the authorities before it
could be distributed, and it caused a new complaint
against him to be made to his bishop. A little later,
he uttered menaces against a respected clergyman of the
diocese of Paris, who had done him many kindnesses;
and the clergyman deemed it necessary to make repre-
sentations to the police. On the 24th of D,-ceeiber, the
man came to Paris, and took up his residence at an
hotel, No. 2, Rue Racine. He wag accuseorned to pass
days in the publio libraries; and even en Saturday h a
went to one as usual. He endEaveured to obtain Au
appointment in the diocese of Paris, but ie Was notified
to him that the archbishop would not grant *him
one. On hearing that, he appeals to have pro-
jected the death of the prelate, and Le purchased for the
purpose a knife at the shop of a cu' ler in the Rue Dau-
phine. After he had stated the previous facts, he was
asked if he had sitabeed the archbishop more than once,
and he answered, "No; I only gave him one stab, fer
I struck in the heart, and knew the blow was mortal."
" Why," he was asked, "did you cry D •ven. with the
goddess!' when you struck the fatal blow ?" "Because
I do not believe in the doctrine of the Immaculate Con-
ception, against which I have preached from 'he pu'pit:
and I wished to protest once more against the impious
doctrine." " Why did you commit so grave a crime ?"
"Because I was interdicted, and because the archhishoo
had declared that the interdiction would not be removed."
He then added, atter a pause, "A priest cannot be al-
lowed to die of hunger." He admitted that be had
gone to the church with the premeditated intention of
killing he archbishop ; and he then several times cried,
with some violence, "No goddess! no go idess!" One,
of the gentlemen who interrogated him, remarked that
the crime which he had c tnatnittel was one of frightful
enormity. 'prep," he exclaimed, "it is frightful !" and
then tears fell from his eyes. He beggee for a Nee,
Testament, and said, "I shall have great need of it,
during the night."

Tilt; as,assin replied to the questions put to him with
calmness, and only displayed agira,ion when he refeireri
to the d,ctrine of the Immaculate Conception. His fea-
tures are full of expression. In the course of the even-
ing he was conveyed to the conciergerie, and a turnkey
was placed with him in his cell. On examining his dress
some printed papers were found fiqtened iu hi• coat.

. .
The body of the archbi,hop, at, er remaining a short
time in the vestry of St. Etienne-du-Mont, wa• removed
to the house of the Emii, and placed on a tnattrLss in
th. drawing•ronm. The features of the venerable pre•
las had undergone no alteration—, hey were as catru
and serene as if he xere in a mild slumber.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
(Front Le Drat.)
Moneiegneur Sibour, the Archbishop of Paris was
murdered to-day in the Courch of St. Etienne du Mont.
The archbishop went to the church to inaugurate the
religious ceremonies which are celebrated there during
the neuvaine of Ste. Genevieve. At ball-past four he
left the choir and was proceeding towards the sac-
risty, when a man rushed towards him, and pushed
aside with one band the archbishop's eve, and with
the other plunged a large Catalan knife into his breast,
crying out at the same time, "A Les les clees.ees
(Down with goddesses ) The prelate staggers; his attend-
ant priests surround him and ho;d him up ; his face is
deadly pale, some deep groans escape him, he is taken
into the sacristy, medical assistance is at Mice procured,
but all aid is in vain, the archbishop is dead. The
murderer was a priest, who stood unmoved, his bloody
knife in hand, by the side of his victim, whom be gazed
upon as he succumbed, with an expre,sion of fiendish
joy. This priest was formerly attached to a parish in
Paris, where, in consequence of his conduct, he had
been several times interdicted. In the month of N
last he was at Melun. The Assize Court of that t,,,wa
having to try a woman charged with having p dsoned
her husband, this priest watched the case with the
utmost interest. The woman was found eni4y, and
sentenced to hard labour for life. (See Droit of Nov.
26, 1856.) This result did not abate the zeal of her pro-
tector. He openly declared that she wa- innocent, and .
to give greater publicity to his prote-t against the
verdict, he printed a pamphlet on the sulject, which he
was on the point of publishing, when tbe parquet
(public prosecutor's office) inter;ered, and itriered the
pamphlet to be seized. The measure was called fur by
the protest itself, and by the terms in which it was.
worded, for it contained most serious acousat:on, against
the honourable judges who pronounced the sent once. This
libel and others gave rise to judicial proceedings in the
course of which the priest in question manifested a total.
want of self-control. The church thoueht fit to inter-
pose its authority, and to interdict; the pries: who had
so misconducted himself. The interdiction greatly aug-
mented the irritation of the party a.:ainst whom it Wl9
pronounced. No act, however, on his part led to the
supposition that he could have been capable of the crime,
which has now stained with blood the church consecra-
ted to the patron saint of Paris. The interdicted priest_
meditated, prepared, and executed,his crime with a cold-
bloodelWess whicn is horrible to think of. He provided
himself with a Catalan knife about a toot long, with a
blade of the breadth of three fingers. He 'mew that on
the 31 of January the archbishop was to etficiate at
the church of St. E ienne-du-Mont, he went thither
with the settled resolution to kill him, and he did kill'
him in the church, and in his p estitisal robes. On,
being asked whether he had s ebbed the archbishop more,
than once, be answered, " No, truly once, for I etructs
the heart, and I knew that the blew wrier moral." "
did you cry when you struck, 'A bas les cleessest':",,
Because I do not believe in the Immaculate CondP4-
tion. I have stated my opinion on that doctriee from
the pulpit, and I wish to protest once more against that
impious worship." On being asked why he had come

and
not be reeked." The imperturbability of he man after
this
having committed such a crime and the circurrstattees
themselves under which the crime wee coinnattted, seen
inconeicLent with a sound min,l, and it must be belt- ved
for the honour of humanity that, the man who was in-
vested with sacerdotal functions was a man and not a
monster. The as-asiin was taken to the mayoralty of
the twelfth arrondissement. M. Mignon, the tub-
e itute of the Procureur Imperial, and M. Treilhard,
jx Ige of instruction, went there at once to examine
hitr. M. Cardouin, the Procureur Imperial, and M.
Pietri, the Prefect of Police,
.interrogated the prisoner
afterwards. The body of the archbishop was takett
to the presbytery of the curd of St. Etienne-du-
Mont, and placed on a couch in the drawing-room. The'
venerable prelate's features were not the least changed:,
One who was ignorant of what had passed nev, r
have supposed, on looking at bins, that death tad for
ever frozen that generous heart. His family and his
many friends flocked to the death chamber. We must
renounce the task of describing the heart-rending scenes
that took place. In the course of the evening the sad
news circulated in Paris, and all hearts were shocked at,
learning the dreadful catastrophe. In 1848, an Arch-
bishop of Pa-:is fell a victim and martyr. In 18,C7, his
successor falls in a church uuderan assassin's knife. Both
were etruck while in the exercise of their Divine fume.
tions, sad died in their sacerdotal robes. May Ged
grant that society may have only a calamity to el- pion,
and not a crime to punish ! The murder er is 32 yenrit
of age. The church of St. Etienne du Mont is cloned,
and will not be opened till after tbe purifications neces-
sitated by the crime that has been committed in it.
M. Sibour was born at St. Paul-Trois Chateaux,
in the diocese of Valence, on April 4, 1792, he was
consequently in his 65th year.
