Rev. DR.. Burroughs, Of the Baptist church at
Richmond, had the i'll taste to improve the
opportunity offered by an invitation to preach
to the federal prisoners, to lecture them upon
the wickedness Of their attempt to subiugNte
the south At the close of the sermon, Cot
Corcoran stepped up to the rcycrncd doctor,
and said:

THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT AND SUNDAY LABOrR.-
The .iut he la Religion has received a communicate
ed note from the Ministry Of the Interior, in reply TO
an article which it had published on the subject Of
the dissertation Of the Sabbath in Paris, and express
ing regret that the example of such violation should
be set by the State, the department., or the city,
which every Sunday, the article declared. occupy an
army of wOrkmen in labOrs the least urgent. The
ministerial note denies the correctness of the state
meut, and declares that, on the contrary, that no
labors are carried on but those which are absolutely
necessary.
French G~ossP.-Napoleon, probably suffering an
intiction of indigestion, has snubbed Queen Victoria,
and, TO balance the account, Lord PalmerstOn has
given Napoleon 4 pretty smart knock on the knuckles.
1t happened in this wise. Acting under Instructions,
Of course, Lord Cow Y, British Minister ut Paris,
had an audience with Napoleon, in which he init
mated that, if his Imperial Majesty had any purpose
Of visiting London during the Great Exhibition.
Queen Victoria desired to place Buckingham Palace
Mt his disposal, though she could not, even for him,
deviate from her resolve not to receive strangers
during her FIRST year Of wiiowhood. In the matter
of this communication surely all was friendly and
well meaning. Perhaps Lord Cowley's manner made
it less pleasant At any rate, the on dit is that
Napoleon having beard Lord Cowley out, CURLY an
swered that he did not intend visiting London, and,
with a short bow, turned on his heel and stalked out
of the room, leaving the poor wretch of an Ambassa-
dor very much aStonished and considerably incensed.
Next day, the .NOniteur had a paragraph stating,
rather contemptuouslv. that there was no foundation
for the report that the Emperor intended to honor
London with his presence.-.N:. Y. Herald.

Later Foreign News.

The Us. steam-sloop H'yomiag arrived on the
9Th, bringing san Francisco papers to the 22i of
June. The Telegraph wires had been down nearly
two weeks, but on the morning that She sailed, dis
patches came through. with Eastern dates from June
s to -. We are Indebted to the courtesy Of Capt.
M'DOugall, Of the Steamer, for a copy Of the only
paper received with the Geographic news. Also to
Pilot Babcock for late san Francisco papers.
The teegraphic dispatches were vary meager, and
create some apprehension in regard to the position Of
affairs. For instance, not a word Is communicated
regarding McClelan's nor HlIlsck's movements dur
ing the five days reported.
\ severe naval engagement took place before Mem
phis June 6, between the Union feet, consisting Of
five g~un-boats and eight iron-clad rams, and the
Rebel feet, which resulted in the destruction Of
several Of the latter, and the dispersion Of the rest.
After the fight. the Mayor Of Memphis quietly sur
rendered to the Union forces, without burning the
city rs had been threatened, or even the cotton and
tobacco stored there.
At Charleston, 5. c., engagements took place on
the 81 and 4th of June, between the Union troops and
the Rebels, but no decisive result is reported.
In the Shenandoah Valley also a severe battle had
occurred, which from the meager accounts received,
appears to have been i closely contested struggle,
with great loss on both sides. 1t il not impossible
that the Union troops in this valley may have again
been rcpuIse1 by the rebels, provided the latter were
reinforced seasonably, which would appear to have
been likely.
By til. Comet, we shall receive much later and
very important Geographic news-probably to the
18th or 10Th of June.
q. "a.
The clipper bank CataLpa, Capt. Allen, arrived
this morning at 8 \. NJ, having sailed from San
Francisco June 22d, the same day the UYomias left.
She brings the Express bags and a small San Fran
cisco mail, but no Eastern letter mail, nor any later
Eastern tclegraphic news.
The CafoLua reports very light winds, and the
Comet and Kathleen will probably be all of 10 days
making the passag 'own.
