THE CLAQUE AT THE PARIS GRAND OrERA-The
cto9gcms are exceedingly numerous in this theatre
and had an opportunity Of gaining some informa-
hon regarding them. They probably number from
fifty to a hundred, and occupy seats in the parterre
very nearly under the chandelier, where they ap-
plaud at the signal of their director, who sits in
another part Of the house ANY one can be a cla-
qHepr, and the ciague is composed of different set
Of people every night If you want to be cynquehr
you must go to the cafe where they meet before the
performance, and ticket will be given YOU which
will admit you to the parterre on payment of
tranc-one quarter the regular price Al most of
the theatres the ctGluears are admitted freely; but
for the Grand Opera there are plenty Of people
who are willing to pay a franc for the privilege of
listening to a good opera, though probably they
could not afford to pay any more. OF course it is
not considered quite respectable to Join the ciague
though it must be confessed they were a very intel
ligent looking set ofpeOplc, and appauded in ex-
eellent taste and always at the right time but with
uonotonous, heartess clap in unison, ala machine
The audience generally seem disposed to look upon
the cloqHe a convenience; for as my companion
said, "thev much more familiar with the operas
than we; their leader is man Of excellent taste;
they always applaud at the proper place; and, in
short, save other people much trouble and kid

REFoHls IL TUNs.-Therei is one Turkish province
which presents pleasing contrast to the other por
tions of the Empire. That province is Tunis
which is attaining to a considerable degree Of iinan-
/ cial prosperity. Since the death of Achmed Bey,
the treasury, which then empty, is full,
and all the public debt has been paid off. The pre-
/ sent Bey Mohamed, very quickly discovered that
good financial administration is Of vital consequence
to his State. The ey has promised all his subjects,
/ Turks, Moors Arabs, and Jews that they shall, as
in all civilized countries, be all equal in the eye Of
| the law. There are no more arbitrary taxes levied,
and the customs duties are nearly nominal. His
army has been reduced from % 0G0 to 5000 men,
He has organized a municipal council in his capital.

citizens residing in the western section of the city
An attempt was made upon the store Of Kuhn Il
Cover, liquor dealers, No. li2 Franklin street, but
the burglars could not succeed in breaking the

also bore marks of a jimmy or some such nstru-
ment. They succeeded in getting into the commits

Eutaw streets, by forcing open the side window
They had opened the outside door Of the safe but it
is supposed that they became frightened at some
noise and made Off without getting any booty.

Dg-A remarkable case Of murder has
recently been tried in Keokuk, Iowa. One
night some weeks ago, a merchant sleeping
over his store, heard noise below, got up
and went down into his wareroom, where
he found two well known citizens with q
lighted candle in hand. He called TO them
by name, when one raised revolver and
shot him through the breast; the other gave
him mortal blow with knife, when they
both fed. The wounded man lived long
enough to tell the facts of his murder. The
citizens would not at first believe the charge
The murdercrs were arrested and brought
before him, disguised by n change OF dress,
and mixed in crowd of other men, yet
the dying man identsfed them and persisted
in the charge with his last breath. They
have Just beeu tried and found guilty and
sentenced to be hung. The trial lasted two
weeks and the evidence is said TO have been
conclusive. Both have families living in
Keokuk. The object of the burglars was to
obtain possession of large sum of money
the house had cot together TO send East for
their annual purchases.

PARTY CoxvExrIoSs.-The New York
HsraH is getting sick of party conventions.
1t says: Weare decidedly in favor of free
election; or, if you please, scrub race
And why? Because our nominating party
conventions have degenerated into the most
corrupt assemblages of trading party hacks,
loafers, and spoils gamblers in the civilized
world; because these conventions are in the
power of faithIess and treaeherous dema-
gogueS; because their nominations are the
mere bargains of spoilsmen for the spoils /;
because they usurp the rights of the people,
and reduce the great principle of popular
suffrage TO mere mockery; and because
where they nominate one man of the capac-
ity of Mr.. Buchanan, they set up two or three
of the calibre of poor Pierce.

AMALGAMATIoy ~ BoSToN.-The matri-
monial records Of the city show that there
have been more than sjrty marriages of
rLih romep TO black men, within the past
year. No instance of white man marry
ing a black woman is registered.
The white ladies of Boston and therea-
bouts have singular tastes; Ger tainly they
seem to relish black kisses, from all ac-
counts, with peculiar gusto, and black or
colored husbands are becoming n highly
popular institution among them. Can any
thing prove more conclusively the growing
degeneracy in point of morality and decen-
cy, of pious, proper New England, as this
horrid fanaticism, which strikes at the root
of everything like purity, and tends to un-
derminc the divine laws of nature?

Es9y- Louisville polls only about the same
number of votes as New Albany, although
her population is three times as large. This
is attributed by one party to the mob rule
ut the elections of the former. Another
thinks the difference is caused by the sys-
tens of voting. In Kentucky the rice roee
system, ii is alleged, keeps many workmen
and employees, who differ in sentiment from
those on whom they are dependent for en-
ployment, from the polls. Both causes
probably have some effect in reducing the
number of votes.

of Charlottesville held meeting and APP
pointed committee of five resolute men, to
follow the fugitiveS and bring the scoundrel
back. They overlook him at place called
Ladoga, 40 or 80 miles distant, and carried
him back to Charlottesville On his ar

read to the multitude No other evidence
was needed, and after a few speeches had
been made by prominent citizens, the lights
were suddenly nguished-Coons caught
and dragged to the courthouse yard-every
stitch of clothing torn from his back-a
bucket of warm tar poured over his head
and bag of feathers artistically applied.

coated from head to heels. The committee
