FRANCE.

The annual commemorative anniverSa-
nv of the return of the First Emperor
from the island Of Eliza was celebrated
on Sunday at Gatelain's restaurant, Palais
Royal. AS usual, the poet-deputy, M.
Belmontet, was requested to preside,
which he accordingly did. Naturally the
number of heroes of the First Empire d.
minishes rapidly. M. Belmontet deslgna-
ted the medallists as timetables vivantes"
Of the Immortal epopee. All the victo-
ries of the Grand Army were represented,
from Mareugo to Montmirail, which,
when one considers the date of the first
italian campaign, is truly marvellous:
The bust of the first Emperor occupied
the centre of the table, overshadowed by
branches of the traditional chestnut tree
of the TuilerieS. The huge ration loaf
was s%urmounied by a magnificent bouquet
of Parma v~iolets. sent from Toulouse for
the occasion. The flowers were disIri-
butcd among the old madallis's, who
cheered the Emperor heartily and re-
p~eatedly.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
FLOGGING IN THE ARMY.

Sir J. PAKINGToN moved the omission
of the clause 22, which gives power to
infict the punishment of fogging, and to
substitute for it a clause enactlng that
every soldier on enlisting shall be placed
in the first class, and be degraded 10 the
second class on the commission of certain
Offences; that corporal punishment shall
not be inflicted on soldiers OF the first
class, and on the second class only 10 not
exceeding fifty Iashrs for muliuy, aggra-
waited insubordination, or disgraceful con-
duct Of an indecent kind, but rendering
every soldier serving in the GeId or on
board ship liable 10 this punishment. He
said This was "a concession to the opinion
Of many members of the House, as it
confined the punishment Of fogglng to
three offences.
Mr.. OrwAY moved an amendment which
would have the effect of prohibiting the
inAiction of hogging during the time of
peace, which. he observed, would be car
rving out the decision OF the House,
when he brought the subject forward a
short time ago. Until they raised the
profession of arms in the eyes of the pub
lie, so that it would not be considered a
disgrace TO belong to the Army, recruiting
would never be placed on a satisfactory
footing.
Colonel North opposed the amendment.
Mr.. HEADLAM said the Mutiny Act gave
large powers, but his experience was
that they were used with great discretion.
Soldiers of the first class, who constituted
nine-tenths of The Army, could not be
logged we for mutiny, while those of
the second class could be logged for very
light offences. He thought that the pun
ishment should be retained only for mutt
nv and characterization with violence, and
that it should be applied to all who were
guilty of those offences.
Mr.. HoRsMAN contended that corporal
punishment was against the spirit of the
, 1867-04-30

age, and that it could not be maintained.
Major JERvIs was strongly opposed to
fogging, and said it was only kept up to
keep the bIackguards in the Army, and
save the expenses of getting respectable
recruits in their stead.
Mr.. MONDAY replied TO the criticisms OF
Mr.. Horsman.
The Marquis of HARRINGTON remarked
that as practically it was proposed to re-
tain the punishment for only one-tenth of
the Army, the soldiers of the second-class
bearing that proportion to the whole, 1t
seemed hardly worth while to retain the
punishment. AT the same time, ii they
were to take a division on the clause he
should vote for it.
General PEEL expressed his concurrence
in the views of Mr.. ~tieadlam, that for
mutiny and INSTRUMENTATION with violence
soldiers of both the first and second class
should be subject to this punishment.
On q division the clause was carried by
225 against 131.
Mr.. OrwAY said he would not trouble
the House to divide on his amendment,
but if he were in the House next year he
would bring forward the question again.
Some discussion then took place as to
the wording of the clause, and Sir 6.
GREY moved to omit the words which
exempt soldiers of the first class from cor
poral punishment, and rendering them
liable to it for mutiny and insubordina-
ton, but his amendment was negatived ;
and after some further discussion the
chairman was ordered to report progress.
Several Bills on the paper were advanc-
cd a stage ; and, some returns having been
ordered, the House adjourned.

BURNING A KING.-A great ceremony
has just been celebrated in Siam which
drew large numbers of visitors from all
parts of the East-nameIy, the burning of
the body Of the second king Of that cnun-
tro, who died about a year ago. Siam,
unlike most Eastern kingdoms that re-
tain pure their native government, has
prospered apaee by its connection with
the of Europe, and is more
wealthy now, probably, than ever it was
under the reign of lis ancient princes
This wealth was allowed to display itself
on the occasion. Over $4,000 people
were gathered round the scene of incre-
nation, and amid the grotesque and gor-
geous %panoply proper to the occasion
the body of the second king-a prince
who, seIf-taught had become an English
scholar and a man Of parts, was reduced
to dust-by q process somewhat more
sharp but not less sur than that which
awaits the whole of us.-Straus Tines.

PROPORTIONS OF THE BODY.

The proportions of the human
figure are strictly mathematical. The
whole figure is six times the length
of the foot. Whether the former be
slender or plump, the rule holds
cook ; any deviation from it is a de-
parture from the highest beauty of
proportion. The Greeks made all
their statues according to this rule.
The face from highest point on the
forehead where the hair begins to the
chin, is tenth of the whole stature.
The hand from the wrist to the mid
die finger is the same From the top
of the chest to the highest point in
the forehead is d seventh. If the
length Of the face from the roots of
the hair to the chin be divided into
three equal parts, the first division
determines the place where the eye
brows meet; and the second the
place OF the nostrils. The hight
from the feet to the top Of the head
is the same as the distance from the
extremity of the fingers when the
arms are extended.

aHoRGIA'S SHAME.

The Columbus Sun, in concluding
an article on the result of the infa.
nous swindle of Radical reconstruct
ton in Virginia, eloquently groups
the agencies that have, to Georgia's
shame, been brought to bear to de.
grade that State, and appeals to pat
riotism to stand firm and see that no
matter what else goes down in the
wreck, their honor is saved. 1t says:
Here, alone, has press urged the
adoption of negro supremacy and
white degradation as a matter of
right. Here alone, has the judicial
ermine been dragged down and drag
ged through the dirty slime of Afri-
can radicalism. Here, alone, have
men, once honored and trusted, ad.
vised their fellowcitize that justice
demanded that white len should fit
their necks to the yoke Of degrade
ton and humiliation. Surely, Geor-
gians have seen enough to satisfy
them. that stripped as they are of
rights and privileges. they cannot
hope by any effort to avert the i'm.
mediate doom prepared for them.
But the choice is yet left them to
preserve their honor and integrity,
or to participate in their own shame
They may yet strike this reconstruc.
ton scheme a death blow. 1t can
only be done by entire apathy. Let
them but leave this detestable bust
ness to Josepo Brown, to Ashburn,
Dunning, the Bureau, the Military
and the niggerS, and in the bright
time that lays beyond the black gulf
now in view, they will not be com.
PEELED to wipe from their shields the
dark record of selfimposed dis.
grace.

SORROW.
EY CLEZIA THASTFR.

Upon my lips she laid her touch d vine
And merry speech and careless laughter died
She fixed her melancholy eyes on nine,
And would not be denied,
! saw the West wind loose bis coudlets white,
In docks, careering through the April sky;
Icoud not sing, though joy was at its height,
For she stood silent by
I watched the lovely evening fade away
A mist was lightly drawn across the stars,
She broke my quiet dream-I heard her say:
Behold your prison bars
EArths glainesa shall not satisfy your soul;
This beauty of The world in which you live,
The browning grace that sanctifss lie whole,
That alone can give"
heard and shrank way from her afraid;
But still she held me, and wonll still, abide.
youths bounding pulses sackened and Jbeyed
With slowly ebbing tide.
Look thou beyond the evening sky, she said,
Beyond the changing spendors Of the day
Accept the pain, the wearne's, the dread,
Accept and bid me stay!'
Iturned and clasped her close with sudden strength
And slowly, sweetIy, became aware
Withln my arms Gods srgel stood at length
White robed and calm and fair
And now look beyond the evening star
Beyond the changing spIendors Of the day,
Knowing the pain he sends more precious far,
More beautiful than they.
