many hundreds of Thousands Of voices will be
In unison. The martial lay bill, besides its
other bad features, is n scheme to sacrifice
General Grant. It seizes hold of him without
reticenoe IN which he has kept himself so
strongly intrenched. It compels him to be the
leading actor in the most odious, the most
obnoxious, and the most desperate political pro-
iect ever undertaken IN this country. It IS a
field in which there Is no opportunity to win
falls from which nothing short OF miracle
could save him. II the friends OF Chief Justice
Chase had oontrived a scheme for the express
purpose of relieving him of hio most formidable
rival, they could have hit upon nothing better
adapted to their design than this bill. Now
that General Grants friends have declphered
and exposed 1t, its defeat may be regarded as
certain.
The great strength of General Grants posi-
tion as a candidate for the Presidency lies in the
fact that he can be supported without incon-
sistenCy by either of the great political parties
He has kept so aloof from politics, and borne
himself with such distinguished discretion, that
he seems to be the one man capable of uniting
and harmOniZing the country. If the Republi-
cans should have the good sense and modera-
tion to run him for the Presidency, the Demo
cratic party would make no opposition. If the
Democrats should run him, no candidate
brought against him by the other side would
have any chance OF success. Hence The willing
ness of the extreme Radicals to put General
Grant in position where he would bear the
brunt of the odium caused by desperate mea-
sure and become mark for poisoned shafts
f1om partisans of all shades. Too many men
are looking to him with hope, to allow this
game to succeed. His contingent candidacy for
President will, from this time forward, loom up
more and more as the controlling fact of the
situation.

The Halt on the mpeachment-Genera
Banks and His Flag OF Truce.

From The Herald.
Five hundred thousand Union soldiers of the
war, we are informed by the "Peeping Tom" of
Copperhead journal, have been organized as a
benevolent society to back up Congress, if
necessary, in the Impeachment and removal of
President Johnson. This half a million of
'boys in blue" is doubtless designed as an offset
to the round million in grey promised by Cap
tain General James Brooks in support of the
Executive. From present appearances how
ever, there will be no occasion for the services
of these warike legions on either side. While
the House Chairman on the Judiciary IS at work
upon his impeachment investigation, the Chair
man on Foreign Affairs General Banks-Who
ought TO KNOWS satisfied that Mr.. johnson
begins to see the error of his ways; tnat his
backbone, like that of the Rebellion, is broken,
or is beginning 10 break; that he is ready to
meet Congress more than halfway; that a sat
isfactory capitulation can be secured before the
4th of March, and that, accordingly, that last
cruel resort OF impeachment may be indef-
nitey postponed. Allah mashallah! God be
praisedl
General Banks is offered, and it really involves
the conditions of complete surrender His
bill, avoiding the technical difficulty that the
Rebel States, beaten in the battlefield, are IN
the condition OF Territories Wrested from q
foreign power, and starting with the State o.
Louisiana, simply assumes that its present loca
government, not having been reco nized by
Congress, is Illegal and calls for reconstruction
He next proposes a special commission of three
members, one to be appointed by the Senate
one by the House, and one by the Secretary o
War; that this commission shall proceed tC
Louisiana and get up a registry of voters in
GLIDING whites and blacks heretofore admitted
as voters, or who have served in the UnioI
army or navy, and all other loyal men, of al
colors, who can read and write, or who owl
property TO the amount OF one hundred dollars
but excluding from the suffrage all those cIasse
of Rebels excluded by the pending Constitu
tional amendment. Next upon this registry O
voters and the iron-clad oath of LOYALTY con
Ventlon is TO be elected, which is TO reorganiz

lature and with the ratification by ii of the gTes

choral unions i'm France.

A correspondent writes - The whole Of
France is organized into choral unions or
orpheons. They take all sorts of names
sometimes they are orph6ons - sometimes
choral unions-sometimes cercle or club
sometimes amateurs-sometimes friends. One
set call themselves Sons of Apollo; another the
Children of St. Denis; others again the Hope of
Paris, the Lyre of Roubaix, the st. Cecilia of
some other place. Time was when the
Orph6ons, who consist mainly of peasants,
attempted no more than to sing the simple
choruses of the Wilhelm school. Now they
can attack any composition of any school-the
most elaborate works of the greatest masters.
AS matter of fact, what they chiefly attack
are the compositions of French masters
Hal6vy, Adolphe Adam, Ambrose Thomas,
GounOd, Felioien David, and Laurent de Rill6.
1t is rather serious business to adjudicate
upon the claims of more than two hundred
choral unions, which are to be represented in
Paris by eight thousand voices, all claiming
the prize. The plan is to break them up into
patches, and to hand each batch over to a
separate Jury.

ARCHEOLOGY.

10 The Editor Of t1e EVsnpg 2eIegraph;-
You published recently an item of scientific
news from Paris It stated that NJ. KillimonoH
a Russian arohmologist, who has recently visited
Paris. proposes an Archaeological Society, which
shall be international in its scope, admitting
members from all countries, and holding
Archaeological Congresses, etc. This is most COM
mendable, and is something that the friends Of
archaeology have long desired.
The Archaeological Institute of Great Britain
has been holding once a year a Congress in some
one of the principal cities OF the kingdom, but
the work is entirely local, and little else has
been done than 10 hold pleasant reunions and
examine local antiquities.
An international Congress is what is particu-
larly desired. and l trust the suggestion of NJ.
Killimonof may be fully carried out
Archaeology has now become one of the esta-
bhshed sciences; its march is steadily onward.
1t claims for its support governments, societies,
and individuals. 1t constitutes now one of the
most absorbing subjects of scientific INQUIRY
abroad. But how is it with us? What are we
doing to develop American archaeology? With
the finest field for exploration in either hemi-
sphere, what are we doing towards opening up
to the world our buried treasures? We have
scarcely an archaeological society in the United
States. Our antiquities are as little known as
the geography of the moon. These are discredit
able facts.
A recent writer in the London Spectator pro-
poses the organization of a commission abroad
for the investigation of American antiquities.
If our own Government will not do this work,
we hope foreign means and intelligence will
accomplish it.
We have read much, within a few weeks, of
remark able discovery on the Potomac, above
Washington of a Runic inscription, with the
grave Of an Iceland woman, who died in 1851
This marvellous discovery has set arch@ologists
all agog. The learned Scandinavian who pro-
fesses 10 have made this discovery publishes
lengthy account and promises more. Doubts,
however, have arisen in the minds of many, and
the facts are about to be investigated. A gen.
tleman who has gwen the subject of American
antiquities more attention than any one else in
the country, and who is now engaged in i'm
portant explorations West, will visit the region
of the alleged discovery, in company with a
committee of scientific gentlemen; and the re-
suits of his Investigations may be regarded as
quite authoritative.
Should this discovery prove to be genuine, it
will not be the only instance in which Runic in
scriptions have been found in this country The
discovery, however, is of the utmost Importance,
and demands careful investigation. We are but
upon the threshold of archaeological discovery on
this continent. A vast field is open for explora-
tion on this continent. In the name of science,
let it be done promptly and efficiently!

An Ant story.

The Boston Transcript observes:-"Of all the
stories about ants the following, which we find
in The Life of John Buncle, Esq, is, perhaps,
the most marvellous
"That the pismires are the best preparers of
a skeleton is not only certain from the account
the missionaries give of the coming on of the
ants in Regn, when, in one nights time, the
vast swarms of them that approach reduce
every human creature they can fasten on to
clean bones, which makes the people set fire
TO their habitatons when they have notice
0iven them, by kind of small monkey they
Keep for the purpose of the motion of this ter
rible enemy"

A Shawl Pin In the Right Lung of n
Child Removed by an Unusual SurEi-
nvNau. NhNwN

cal Operation.
On Tuesday, the 10th instant, Anna, FIVE
year old child of Samuel Cassel, of South
Easton, swallowed a shawl pin, the pin being
several inches long, and the head of it almost
an inch around. She had thoughtlessly put the
pin in her mouth, through which it slipped
backward. The mother of the child thrust
finger into its throat. which motion, instead of
producing the desired result, worked the pin
forward into the windpipe. Violent paroxysms
of coughing followed, but as the child had
moments of comparative ease, the parents
postponed an operation, which was ad-
vised at first The paroxysms became
more severe, the face was of pur-
Die color, and the breathing so labored
that it could be heard at considerable distance.
Her suffering may be imagined. She begged for
relief and desired the operation. The case was
given into the charge of Drs, lnnes, G. B.
Slough, and Field. An operation afforded the
only hope of recovery. 1t was performed by
DR.. Field, assisted by Drs. Slough and Innes, in
the presence of medical students and neighbors
Chlorotorm was given, an iucsion made along
the middle line of the neck, and the windpiDe
opened to within an inch of the breastbone.
The proper instruments were then introduced,
and the pin was found imbedded in the division
of the windpipe that goes to the right lung. 1t
was removed, and may be seen on inquiry. The
little patient, thus sEatched from death, will
soon be entirely free from the effects of the
oDeratiOn.- EdStOn ECDTeSS,

THE POLICE OF PARIs.-A subsidy of 8, ,2O7, 900
francs was voted the other day by the French
legislative body to the city of Paris, for the
maintenance of the police of the capital. Up
to the year 1855 the municipality paid for the
police out of its own funds, but in that year
two-ffths of the expense was transferred to
the charge of the State. The proportion which
thus becomes payable by the public treasury
amounted in 1860 to 2, 240, 600 francs, and in
1861 to 3,S47, 900 francs, at which figure
il remained until last year, when it was again
raised to 3,s47, 900 francs. The considerably
higher sum stated above is the proportion for
the present year. AS this sum is two-ffths
of the total expense, the cost OF the police of
Paris is now thirteen millions of francs year,
or more than one-twelfth of the revenue Of
the capital. The police consists of 800 men,
OF three per thousand of the whole population
Of Paris.
