TiyE.TWENTIES.

Some Of our hot-hcated partisan polit.
clans might study with profit the financial
phenomena Of the times. IL the plan Of i'm.
peacbing the PRKsrDKsr had any reasonable
prospect Of being put through Congress. the
holders Of American securities abroad would
force them upon the market at sacrifice,
and the fabric Of our paper-money system
would tumble to pieces. But what 10 the
fact Instead Of having fallen, the Ave-
twenties maintain within fraction Of one
per cent. the advanced rate which they
attained since Congress assembled. This
must be a sore thing to the impeachcrs.
The agents in this country Of foreign cap
italists are shrewd observers in our political
movements as well as our financial eondi-
ton; and II they foresaw the troubled com
plicstions which impeachment would inevita-
bly, create, they would instantly instruct the
foreign holders TO 'realize' upon their United
States securities. II is their special voca-
ton to watch the welfare Of those bonds, and
when they see Q prospect Of their being re-
duced to the condition Of confederate
notes." the effect would be instantly ap-
parent in the money markets Of the world.
The steadiness Of the hve-twenties shows that
the impeachment movement is looked upon
as futile.
Every cable dispatch, like those we are
Publishing daily, says to Mr.. PRAcnBbow
AsHrrr, "You are thick.headed partisan
The telegram which quotes FiveTwenties al
72i says, virtually, to ASHLEY, you are ar
ass" Secretary McCULLocn's report put the
securities up, and the tslk Of Impeachment
has not, fortunately, resulted in depreciating
them. s.ff'HrrH go -r.. q.
A good sign in every respect is the re.
markable steadiness Of our Five-Twenties in
Europe. ----.-L - -

Paris Exposition Gossip.

The Phare de Ia Loire and The Union de
Quest has received the following "commu.
nicated" note concerning the cloak room:
at has been stated that the concessions Of
the cloak, stick, and umbrella room at the
Universal Exhibition has been accorded TO
the Prince Imperial's dancing.master, who
sold his privilege for several hundred thou
sand francs. The room had been regularly
conceded to person for the sum Of 40 900
francs, but the caution money not having
been paid, and he having expresseda wish to
withdraw his offer, the enterprise was ac-
corded to M. Baronnett, whose tender was
1000 francs, being 1000 francs higher than
that Of NJ. Petipa, professor Of dancing. M.
Baronnett at once paid his deposit, executed
all the clauses Of his contract, and is thus the
definite lessee. Therefore It is wrong, and
manifestly with the idea Of defaming the
authorities, that certain journals have trans
formed into favor Of the Government the
legitimate decisions Of o competition open
to every one, and that those Journals have
designated as the recipient Of this pretended
favor person attached to the service Of the
Prince Imperial"
| The Paris correspondent Of the London
Ne,0s writes as follows concerning French
works of art in the Exposition:
"The most important operation going on
away from the exhibition building and park
is the election Of the jury that is to select
the French works Of art which arc TO be ex-
hibited nextyear as representing the living
French school. The voting takes place in
the Louvre, and will be closed this week.
The jury will be mainly q representative
body. All French artists who have received
the cross Of the Legion Of Honor as a recog-
milton of the merit Of their works, and all
artists who have obtained medal at one Of
the exhibitions Of fine arts in Paris, have a
vote. The jury will consist Of ffty-seven
members, divided into four sections l. Oil
paintings, water colors and drawings; twenty
| four jurymen. 2. Sculpture including me-
dallions; fifteen jurymen. 3. Architectural
models and drawings; nine jurymen. 4. En-
craving and lithography nine jurymen. OF
this Jury two thirds are elected, and one
third is indirectly appointed by the Imperial
Commission; SO that the artists will elect
sixteen jurymen in the first section ten in
the second section, and six in the third and
fourth sections. Each artist votes only in
that section in which be has obtained honors.
A preparatory meeting Of the sculptors has
already been held in the Palais de l1ndustrie,
in the Champs-Elysees, to draw up list Of
thirty candidates who will be submitted for
election as jurymen in the second section.

THE Louisville Journal copies AsHLEY's
impeachment matter and appends these COM
ments:
We have here, as will be observed, q reso-
luton which authorizes an inquiry into the
propriety Of impeachment with preamble
that actually impeaches- tail Of an open
ing speech Of impeachment made the head
Of q resolution Of inquiry. The preamble is
several months, II not an eternity, behind the
resolution. In short, the thing is monster,
whose tail, or what might be its tail, is where
its head ought to be. 1t is the pink Of mon
strosity. We have all read Of the centaur, Of
the sphinx, Of the chimera, Of the minotaur,
the griffin, Of the hippogrif, and Of the other
fabulous monsters OF antiquity, but where
shall we look for monster like thisf Not
in mythology, Not in Barnum's Museum.
Not in the Museum Of Anatomy. Not in
the side-show Of any circus in the world.
The production is nonesuch. None but 1t.
self can be its parallel. The travail Of Ash.
ley's ambition has undoubtedly resulted in
the birth Of the greatest monster Of all time
