Meantime be viii visit the Exposition. After
shortvisit hewill return home to quiet his
subjects who almost reyolted when he made
known his intention to visit Paris. After him
the Emperor and Empress of Austria viii
arrive. Their reception will be rather sol
emn than otherwise, and no balls or tetes Will
be rendered them on account of the recent al
hictions of ths family.
The great event of yesterday was the cere'
mony of the distribution of prizes at tue Pal
ace of Industry, the large building used Tor
the Worlds Fair OF 1855. Although the house
was filed with between twenty and thirty
thousand people, the audience was chosen
one. No enc could enter except those who
had tickets and no one could have tickets but
those who had season tickets to the Exposition,
those who were to receive q grand prize, or
gold medal, and a few commissioners and in
vited guests. Every one who had ticket was
required to come in evening dress; that is with
black dress coat and pantaloons white vest
and white necktie. Especial emphasis is put
upon the white cravat on all such occasions and
any other fault OF dress would be sooner for
given.
The programme was as follows: AT eleven
O'Clock in the forenoon the doors were opened.
An orchestra of twelve hundred musicians
performed pieces Of music at intervals there
after At half past one the exhibitors who
were so fortunate as to receive gold medals en-
tered in procession. At about the same time
the Emperor and Empress left the Tuileries in
their state carriages and the Sultan left his
palace, all arriving at the Palace of Industry
at about two o'clock. When the royal party
entered the orchestra played hymn to the
Emperor composed by Rossini. Then came
the report of the Minister Of, State, who is al
SO vice-president OF the Exposition, on the
Exposition. After the report, the Emperor
delivered short and sensible discourse, at the
close of which the prizes were given out by the
Emperor himself.
Some of the Americans in the city are max
ing preparations to celebrate the Glorious
Fourth. The programme, as near as able to
give it will be about as follows: assemble at
Pre-Catelan in the Bots de Boulogne; reading
of the Declaration of Independence; speeches
by Messrs. Dougherty and Forney of Phladel-
phia, and perhaps by others; dinner; fireworks
ball. 1t is expected that Colonel Forney will
take the President for his subject. la .1s -

Between the hours Of and o'clock yester-
day, (Sunday,) morning, the dry goods store Of
Mr.. Lucas of this city, formerly of Portland
was broken into and lot of Thibets, Lyonese
cloths, ends of CLOTHS, etc., were carried away
together with about "a, 00in money. The total
The robbers effected an entrance in the rear
Of the store, opening pair of window shut

Mr.. Dixon the night Waterman, while going
his rounds. at about quarter to two O'Clock,
saw two men in front of Mahen's restaurant
withtheir arms full Of goods. One of them said;
Theirs the I'm son of BIB now p They
started to run, Dixon giving chase. When
they got as far as the town landing, they run
up the embank ment o.. to the railroad track,
and then as they run commenced dropping
the goods. Dixon kept up the pursuit until
this side of the Pottery in Farmingdale, when
he pulled his six shooter, and after calling
upon them to stop, fired one shot without eff
feet. Dixon who is a one armed man, and not
not over bright, then gave up the chase and
went to City Marshal Wentworth 3 house rout-
ing that officer up. The, two went and after
finding no traces of the thieves, began picking
up the goods that had been dropped. All but
five pieces of Thibet valued at about $4,000,
were recovered. aii4 prs ag4e .gTa-
A young man named Charles E. Morgan of
Farmingdaie, who works on the river, in Fl.
w. Tewitt's employ, was brought before Judge
Palmer to-day, charged with being concerned
in the larceny, Dixon swearing positively that
he identified him as being one of the two he
chased. After lengthy hearing Morgan was
honorably discharged, the evidence being
deemed insufficient to bind him over to await
action of the grand jury. The action of the
Court is approved by those no heard the tes-
tim0ny. s.

PARIS, July 2, 1857.

.i-as-- PARIS, July 2, 1857.
To the Editor oft Press: ~ -Si '''-ii.
After the departure of the sovereigns of
Russia and Prussia, the city settled down into
state of tranquility almost amounting to
dizziness. To maintain such a state of excite
ment was not natural and the reaction was in
evitable. For about two weeks the streets
were less crowded, the Exposition was almost
deseated and Paris was resting from its rev.
Ell. The advent Of the viceroy of Egypt made
little sensation, and the appearance Of several
Dukes and Duchesses was unnoticed. But
once again Paris is aroused, her streets are
crowded and all is excitement. DoN1 t-
Perhaps there was never such a crowd upon
the streets as blocked many OF the avenues
last Sunday. The occasion was tn 70 I of
the Sultan of Turkey. A man was coming
who is the head of an almost heather nation,
the monarch of semi-barbarous people. A
king was to arrive who had never seen loco
motive in motion, who had never been unon a
railroad car. There was to appear a ruler who
is the first of long line Of despots to leave
his re aim except when on a crusade Of course
the Parisians, whose name is a synonyme for
curiosity, would be eager to catch glimpse of
such parsonage.
The train arrived at about half past four in
the afternoon. The newspapers had annou nc
ed that the principal state carriage would form
part of the retinue, and had given the route.
Starting from the station the cortege took the
nearest path to the Louvre, entered by the
east portal, passed through the Court of the
Tuileries to the Palace, and after a moments
halt to pay respects to the Empress, through
the gardens of the Tuileries, the Place de la
Concorde, and Champs Elsyees to.the Palace
d'Elysee, where the Sultan will remain while
in Paris
The retinue was brilliant and probably most
of the multitude were well paid for their trou-
Die, though many had waited for more than
two hours in a hot sun. --.,--.. -..-.-
A hasty glimpse of the Sultan, obtained
while standing GU the pedestal of statue In
the garden OF the Tuileries, clinging to the
granite figure and peering into the carriage as
it tTotted by, would hardly suffice for an ac.
curate description Of his Majesty. But that
glance revealed that he is a man Of Medium
height, dark skin, full black beard cut
rather short, with an intelligent countenance
ard keen black eye. He wore sort of can.
embroidered with gold, and kind of jacket
with loose sleeves, trimmed with profusion of
gold and silver lack
Yesterday he assisted at the grand distribu.
ton of prizes for the Exposition. To-day
grand review is being held in his honor. Soon
two grand balls will be given him, one at the
Hotel de Vile, the other at the Tuileries-

We said last week, that "the difference be-
tween the Press and Advertiser appears to be :,
that while we favor any project which prom
ises to meet this great and urgent necessity
flor water supply no matter who presents
it, the Advertiser favors nothing but the Pre-
sampscot plan" This weeks Advertiser COM
plains that the statement is unjust, and says
water can be had from Sebago, with suitable
reservoirs in the city, for much less than the
Portland Water Company asks, if the COM
m'ttee on the part Of the city will advertise for
proposals, pledging to competitors an impair
tial decision in favor of the most economical,
all things considered. If there were large
number Of competitors for this little job, this
course might do. As the case stands we think
the committee will DO well, instead OF pledg-
ing themselves to accept the lowest offer they
can get, 10 ascertain, as with reasonable care
they can, what a tdir offer ought to be, so as to
deal intelligently with any responsible parties
who appear. That is what we understand the
committee is now doing. Ofcourse in a mat
ter Of such general interest as this, it will be
proper and necessary for the committee to re-
port fully the results of their investigation;
and the publication of that report we trust
will set at rest the suspicious about "jobs" and
"plunder" which appear to be so rife in certain
quarters. 9A

Providence You've LADIES HIGH SCHOOL.
The Providence journal thus notices the with
drawal Of Professor Lincoln from the Young
Ladies' High School and the accession of his
successor, Rev. J. G. Stockbridge, late pastor
of the Free Street Church in this city:
Many Of our citizens have learned with pro-
found regret that Prof Lincoln retires from
the Young Ladies' School which he has con-
Quoted with eminent ability and success. The
School has become one OF the institutions of
Providence, IN which the city has an bonora-
bic pride. By thirty years OF patient and faith
full labor, the Hon. John Kingsbury establish
ed its reputation on substantial basis; and
Prof Lincoln, by his rare union of the highest
gifts of instruction and government, has great
" extended this reputation, and made the
School an honor to our city. He now with
draws TO devote himself more exclusively to
his duties in the University, and the College
will gain what is lost to the city.
His place will be filed by gentleman we'll
known to many Of our citizens, and well quail
ihed by natural gifts and by experience to
maintain the high character which the School
has acquired. Rev. j. G. Stockbridge, d. D.,
will now assume the charge. He is graduate
of Brown University, and connected by mar
rage with some of the prominent families in
our city, He is a gentleman of broad culture
and winning manners, who has filed with
honor important positions in professional life.
He supplied the pulpit of the First Baptist
Church in this city for one year, to general &C.
ceptance; and was then called to succeed the
lamented DR.. Sharp in Boston. He was also
Tor time at the head of the Young Ladies'
Seminary, in Warren, in it's most dourishing
days, and won for himself good name as a
teacher. 1t is fortunate for the School and its
patrons that, on the retirement of Prof Lin
coin, it falls into such competent hands.

have been in this city and the towns in the
vicinity, offering this article for sale to the
merchants under the name of patent OIL

perfectly safe and superior to kerosene Many
merchants have been taken in by them. and
induced to sell the oil, being ignorant of its
real character as was the case with the grocer
who sold the oil, the explosion of which Caused
Miss Taylor's death. Butin fact it IL exceed
ingly dangerous to Use any of this oil in kero-
sene lamps, notwithstanding the assertions of
the bogus patentees, There is an article call
ed petroleum fluid, PREPARED from benzine
which is safe to use in the small packed fluid
hand lamps made for its use, and as geuera-
tor of gas, and in those ways only. Mepchants
and families cannot be too careful in the pur-
chase of illuminating oils. They should buy
olly of we'll known and Responsible dealers
and be sure to get nothing but kerosene oil of
the standard fire test. -.....+ t..-
We are happy TO inform the public that the
Portland Kerosene Company are now manu-
featuring oil from Albert coal, and sell no oil
that does not stand the fire test of 1870
to 140 degs.s 1t will be noticed by our readers
that law Of this State forbids the sale of any
oil that does not stand the fire test of l20 degs.
The Portland company, to make sure thing
OF it, and not endanger the lives Of the people
go beyond the requirements of the law and
do more for the safety Of the lives Of all who
burn kerosene oil than the statute demands
1t is important that our readers should know
that parties from the West and South are
selling oil in our State that does not come up
to the fire test required by the law. Let the
public be on their guard against dealers in
such oil. We hope these dealers will not only
tnd their trade duh, but will also be made to
feel the penalties of the law. 1' 7g-ei5s5

The Amendment of tine New Hampshire

magnifcence and profit of the enterprise.
