Peace Movement in New Jersey.

Our readers have noticed that GER
tain "Psace resolutions" have been
offered in the Now Jersey Legisla-
ture, by politicians Of the VALLAN-
DIGHAN school. Many loyal people
have been alarmed at what they
imagined was tho movement Of a
formidable body of the people, but
there are strong indications that
the factious scheme will fall to the
ground. The Now York Post, of
the oath, says:
The 'PeacO" resolutions Of Mr.. Hols-
man, came up in the New Jersey Senate
Yesterday, on motion for their reference
10 q special committee, which, after an
earnest debate, were negAtived. Senator
Chandler Democrat), OF Morris county,
favored the indefinite postponement Of
the proposition, saying, unecuivocally,
that the conservative sentiment was too
strong 10 allow resolutions Of that char
acter TO be passed" lie had come from
a sick bed to oppose them, and he was
willing, as Democrat, TO assume all the
responsibility Of bis course. Mr. Chan
dler is Democrat Of undoubted stAnd-
ing, and is probably the ablest member
on the Democratic side Of the Senate.
His opposition to the peace" Programme
Of the party leaders has naturally caused
great indignation among the faithful, and
every effort will be made TO sWerve him
from his position, but present indications
are that they will altogether fail and
that Mr.. Holsman' g resolutions will never
be exhumed from the portfolio Of the
Committee on Federal Relations, TO which
they were finally referred.
A letter. writer says:
One thing is certain, nothing Of that
description can pass both Houses. De-
pend upon it, peace resolutions and
James Brooks are dead cocks iE this pit.

Change Of Name,

The English papers are somewhat 0x-
ercissd in regard to the question how a
man may change his name. Some say
only by royal license, others that they
acquire a right to = new name by usage.
Then the question comes up, what name
shall the party on probation use? If he
uses his newly chosen name, he will be
told that he has not acquired il by usage;
if he uses his old name, heswill never be
in q pasdition to declare that he has es-
tAblished the required usage At all. One
case in point is attracting some attention
in England. A man named A. Buggy,
wishes to change his name, and whimsi-
cal as it may appear, he chooses the name
A. Newman. Mr.. Buggy is an investi-
gator into names, and furnishes TO the
Times a host OF odd English surnames,
founded on wills in the PrerogAtive
Court in Doctors Commons. Upon the
lis. are the following

A Russian Noble.

Among the last heard Of oddities at
tracted 70 Paris by various motives, is
said 10 be q Russian Prince Of great
wealth, his fortune being estimated at
the respectable figure of $3.50, GOO year.
A Paris correspondent Of OAnAda paper
says, he spends much Of his time travel
ing, and having a passion for wild beasts,
carries an extensive menAgerie around
with him. This Roblsman, who has ex-
tsnsiye estates in tho Ural Mountains,
containing an emerald mine, and produ-
cling the finest malachite in existence,
has spent immense sums in the purchase
OF wild beasts, and has succeeded in
forming very formidable collection, in
cluding lion, two tigers, gsVerAl pam
theirs, pair OF hyenas, various monkeys,
all excessively noisy, and other "horrorS"
too numerous to mention. The Prince,
on arriving here, took possession Of the
suite Of rooms that had been previously
engaged for him; and as he delights in
poking up his tremendous pets and set
ting them all roaring together, previous
10 feeding them, the dismAy Of ths sue
cessive layers Of tenants who filled the
rest Of tho house, from garrett to cellar,
may easily be conceived.
The frightful news OF the establish
ment of 4 uie,,dgerie Of bona ias wild
beasts in . private dwelling soon circu-
lated throughout the nsighborhood,
throwing all the inhabitants into spasms
of terror Complaints poured in upon
the police authorities, and the guardians
Of the public peace transported them
selves TO the princes lodgings without
delay, satisfied themselves that the ami
mails were really there, informed him
that the harboring OF these dangerous
and noisy pets was against the law, and
ordered him to get rid of them. The
prince, on his side, set forth the impossi-
bility of his giving..up collection which
he had formed at so great a cost and on
which he bad set so high a value and
entreated, as he was only passing
through Paris en- route for Livonis, where
he has an immense domain, with a chat
eau, and plenty of accommodation for
his beasts, to be allowed TO keep them,
offering to buy out all the other tenants
on terms that would indemnify them for
the loss and cost of the removal, and TO
take such precautions as the police au-
thorities should dictate, against all dan
ger of the escape of ths animals.
As the house stands alone, and posses
sea a ge..internal court round which the
cages Of the animals can be convenient
ly ranged, the difficulty was thus got
rid Of The other tenants have quilted
the building, taking with thsm goods
and chattlsG and handsome indemnity
paid down At once by the eccentric Rus
sian. The latter has rented the entire
house, and is so much pleased with an
arrangement which leaves him free TO
give the range Of the premises to his
roaring darlingS, that he is determined
TO remain here through the winter.
