THE FRENCH ARMY BILL-POPULAR Dis
CoNTENT.-From cable despatch which we
printed in the HERALD of yesterday. it appears
that the new Army bill is decidedly unpopular
in France. In the rural districts particularly,
where its effects are more distinctly visible
than they are in the large cities, murmurings
of disaffection are loud. So general is the dis
content and SO unmistakably is it revealing
itself that the semi-oflicial press have been set
to work to allay the excitement. Soothing edi-
torials are the order of the day. The nation,
groaning under debt and trembling for war, is
being patted on the head and quietly assured
that 'these apparently large war preparations
are in reality pledge Of peace" A very
expensive and a very questionable pledge the
French people may well reply.
The New York herald., 1868-04-13

The heart of the great city is constantly
agitated by conflicting emotions 1t throbs
necessarily with the glad or respondent feeling
of the merchant the triumph of the successful
broker, the avarice or recklessness Of the poll
tician, the wild excitement of the speculator,
but more often, alas with the dull, hopeless
anguish of the poor. There are thousands in
the metropolis who creep forth every day from
their wretched homes to fight the battle OF life
against fearful odds, and among those thou
sands are many weak, delicate, helpless
women. One of the first considerations, then,
in an immense community like ours should be
the care of the poor. With them the priva-
tions, disappointments and trials which are the
necessary adjuncts of human life seem multi
piled hundredfold, and they groan beneath
the burden. Many sink under it, and their
wall of despair mingles with the ever busy hum
of the great city. Hence we have numerous
charitable institutions where the grievously
wounded in life's struggle may be cared for
and where the young may be prepared for the
contest. The latter, especially of the female
sex, need particular attention, for in this human
wilderness young girls in needy circumstances
are exposed to the most terrible temptations.
st. Josephs Industrial Institute, which is
now being built on Madison avenue,
under the auspices of the Sisters Of Mercy, is
designed 70 supply the wants Of the commu-
nifty in this respect, to afford young girls and
women refuge from the dangers they may be
subjected to when placed in circumstances
where their life and happiness are imperilled,
and to strengthen them anew for the contest.
The House of the Good Shepherd is another
institution which effects an immense deal of
good in reforming those who have strayed from
the path of rectitude and duty and in making
them again useful members of society. There
are many other laudable institutions of like
nature, all designed for the amelioration of the
hard fate of the poor of the city. They should
receive the constant and earnest support of those
in the community whose means are adequate to
the task, as well as the consideration of the
Legislature. The good deeds Of such institutions
and the tribute Of our citizens to charity will
60 far towards preserving them from the fate
which the wickedness of many among them
might draw down on their heads, and blotting
out the record of crime which great city is
constantly filling up. Our charitable institu-
tions are the oases of the desert Of infdelity
and recklessness which at the present day
seems bOundless.

We published yesterday the letter of Count
Bismarck in reply to the request of the A0iamce
Lsraelite of Paris to interpose with the gov
ernment of Prince Charles (nephew of the
King of Prussia) in behalf of the Jews perse-
cuted in Roumania by the agents of the Minis
ter Bratiano. Count Bismarck says in his
letter that the Prussian government has given
fresh instructions to its representative at
Bucharest to use his utmost influence to secure
for the coreligionists of his correspondents
''all that protection which they enjoy in coun-
tries that are under a legislation founded on
principles of humanity" This letter shows
that Count Bismarck is an enlightened states
man, fully alive to the progressive spirit of the
day, which is stimulating not only Prussia,
but even Austria, since K5niggratz, to enter on
the progressive path towards emancipation
from ancient prejudices. How strong these
Old World prejudces still are may be inferred
from the absurd provisions of bill introduced
into the Moldo- Walachian Chamber signed
by thirty-one members, including the President,
and which we printed yesterday in a telegram
of the 26th ult. According to this bill Jews
cannot establish themselves in the rural dis
tricts, and in the towns they must have
special authorization. Persons contravening
this law are to be considered as vagabonds
and sent out of the country. Jews cannot
either sell or purchase houses; they cannot
hold leases of lands, forests, vineyards, sheep
folds mills, wine shops or inns they cannot
act in common for any enterprise, or associate
themselves with Christians for that purpose;
they can engage in no commercial transaction
without the authorization of the Marie; all
persons acting in contravention shall be pun
ished by fines, and their cases shall not be
tried by the regular authorities Jews can sell
only portable liquors and provisions to their
coreligionists; the Jewish committees are sup
pressed, and all laws contrary to the above
regulations are abrogated.
Even King Kennedy could not have con-
ceived of regulations more antagonistic than
these to the liberal spirit of the age; and Count
Bismarck, in his virtual protest against their
illiberality, affords fresh poof of the conformity
with modern ideas to which the logic of events
has brought him, Notwithstanding all his own
aristocratic habits of thought When the East
ern question fairly comes to be settled the con-
| dition and the rights of the Jews in the Da-
nubian Principalities will be not the least i'm
| portant subject for consideration.

Our special kilograms conveying news
from Mexico mainly repeat the same
old story of serious difficulties between
the military and the citizens, as al
Guaymas in San affair that may lead to
blood;" of barefaced smuggling and rows be-
tween governors and collectors of customs, as
reported from Guaymas and La Paz; of dul-
ness and gloomy prospects in trade; of Span
iards tampering with Mexican troops; OF
chronic rebellion in Lower California, and of
fears of an American invasion of Sonora,
Lower California and Sinaloa. Our intelligence
from Mazatlan via San Francisco gives late
and important information regarding the pro-
gress of the civil war now being waged between
Governor Rubi and General Martinez. A
perfect reign of terror existed in Sinaloa. The
revolutionlsts under Martinez were conscribing
every man they could find and forcing them
to serve in the rebel army: In the meanwhile
the forces Of the government were c6hcentrat-
ing, and General Corona was daily reported
at Copala to take command and make an ad-
vance movement. The presence of the United
States fleet and the movements of the various
ships caused great many rumors of impending
Intervention on our part. Altogether the con-
dition of affairs was very dangerous Anarchy,
violence and everything else of a like Mexican
characteristic were rife In Lower Cali

meet and decide what remedy is to be applied
to the political malady;" but this ''political
malady" is by no means confined to Lower
California. 1t has fatally poisoned the whole
system of affairs throughout Mexico, which
seems doomed to languish and decline until an
infusion of American life shall have wrought,
as if by miracle, an effective and permanent
cure AS soon as we have cured our own
political malady," the transient effects of our
late war, will it not be our duty to attend to
the case Of ''the sick man in Mexico?" He

must have interested any creditors OF Santa
Anna in New York or any dependents upon
the hope that his schemes may yet lead them to
glory and gold in Mexico. In the lawsuit be-
tween him and De Embil, Santa Anna has
been ordered to give security for his part Of
the costs, but asserts that at present he is
penniless." Judgment in the case has been
deferred. The execution Of whatever grand
plans he may have for the conquest of Mexico
must also be deferred, II all his millions Of

parte family saved the temporalities of the
Church at Montana. The Church. as natural
consequence, is filed with gratitude. The
eldest son and the eldest daughter are inhigh
favor. "A near relative of the eldest son has
just received cardinals hat, and has accepted
the honor in the light Of compliment to

With Bonaparte on the throne of St. Louis

dynasty will be complete. Will it be good for

The MCGEE AssAssINArIoN.- McGee
assassination still absorbs public attention in
Canada. The authorities have accumulated
additional circumstantial evidence impli-
eating whelan as the probable assassin.
The testimony against him is said to be
very nearly complete. The police have
discovered several new facts relative to
the murder, but they are enjoined to
secrecy. There is little doubt that strong
case will be made out against Whelan; but
whether the industrious efforts Of the admins
tration to discover clue connecting him with
any political conspiracy will be successful yet
remains to be seen. Whoever the murderer may
have been, and whether he acted solely from
personal hatred and revenge, or as the agent OF
political conspirators, the murder of McGee
will but add one more to the long list of cases
which illustrate the stupidity as well as the
malignancy of political assassination, which IL
always no less blu1der than crime,

The Two Terrible Assaults ON the War ONCE
and. the Whiskey Bottle.

The Two Terrible Assaults on the War Oface
and the Whiskey Bottle.
AS the impeachment farce progresses we are
treated to some rich scenes. The testimony of
General Thomas, which it was supposed would
prove what the radical organ here calls the
''terrible assault on the War Department."
puts the s'assault" in most ludicrous light.
When General Thomas demonstrated in a
friendly way with Stanton for having him
arrested before he had time to eat his break
fast, Stanton put his arm around the neck of
the assaulting party, rubbed his hand through
the Generals gray hair familiarly and asked
him to take drink. They took a drink.
General Schriver measured the liquor, which
was precious from its scarcity, from small
phial, and divided it equally in two glasses,
holding them up to the light in order to see
that fair play was done and that there was no
conspiracy" to cheat either of the Secretaries
out of his rights. The besieged and the be-
sieger accordingly partook of the diminutive
appetizer to prepare themselves for the con-
tents of the full bottle of whiskey which an
attendant (acting, no doubt, on a wink from
Stanton) brought in. The "terrible assault"
then began, not upon the War Department, but
upon the whskey bottle, and the clinking of
glasses between the combatants was something
awful to contemplate. The War Department
was taken by assault. Thomas and Bourbon
were triumphant, and the foundation for article
first in the impeachment was laid.
This was a strong point for Butler. His
idea of an assault, after the Fort Fisher
fashion, was realized in that whiskey bottle.
The memories it recalled must have been as
stinging as the contents This scene in the War
Department ought not to be allowed to pass into
oblivion. Brady should give us photographs of
the Damon and Pythias embrace of Stanton
and Thomas, the attitude of each particular
hair on the old Generals head when STAN
toms unctuous fingers were traversing his
Uranium. General Schriver squirting at the
glasses when making an accurate measure
ment of their contents would make capital
incident in the picture, and the phial should be
preserved in art as great historic memento.
If Brady does not seize this opportunity pos
terty will never be able to realize this terrible
assault on the War Department which put a
Presidents head in peril and almost brought
us to the verge of revolution in the
government.

Riot Between Sailors and Ncsroes-The
Former Badly Beatcn-Reported Indian
Atrocities.
KEY WEST, April 4, 1868.
There was quite serious riot here yesterday, I'm
which some sailors and negroes were injured. Tho
ARRAY began between ten and eleven O'Clock in the
morning, and was inaugurated by a company OF six
or Sailors who, while roaming about the streets
drunk, attacked a negro woman and child, striking
the latter in the face The woman instantly rushed
to the negro quarters and alarmed tho
blacks, who at once sailed out to tho
number Of ffvs or more, armed with clubs and
stones Finding the sailors they made an assaults
upon them and drove them from street to street. the
latter fighting vigorously on the defensive. Two or
them were Knocked down and terribly beaten. The
negroes then retired to their quarters aud peace was
restored.
II is reported here that the Indians In Florida have
declared war against the whites, and that AZ FISH
Eating creek they had burned two houses ana scat
tered the families. II was also reported tlat one
man was burned at the stake But this Is evidenuy
an exaggeration.
Business Is very dull.

Curiou. Conalcts Among Judges.

Our law history is assuming rather curious
feature. Hitherto grave Judges were sup
posed to have no interest in suits brought
before them, while their Offices were regarded
as emblematical of Justice sitting with pair
of scales evenly balanced in her hands. Now
,adays, however, there appears to be some
what different state of affairs existing. In
Memphis, for instance, Judge Hunter, of the
Criminal Court, imprisons the editors of a
newspaper for contempt; whereat Judge Wal
dron, of the Municipal Court, releases them
from jail On Tuesday last the climax is capped
by Judge Hunter arresting Judge Waldron for
'unlawfully interfering with his court" and
we are informed that the latter twill in turn
arrest Hunter for this action" Now, all of this
makes most delightful muddle. When Judges
commence clapping each other in prison what
will become of us poor non-legal mortals? The
gravity Of the situation, too, becomes height
ened when we consider the chances of similar
occurrences taking place in New York. The
Erie Railroad war, now pending, has been
rendered peculiarly remarkable by the per-
sistency with which the Judges of the Supreme
Court issue injunctions against each other, or,
rather, against each others measures. Sup
pose they should suddenly take it into their
heads to have each other arrested? What a
magnificent spectacle would be presented of
the entire Supreme Court being either in
durance vile or under bonds to answer charges
of "unlawfully interfering" with the proceed
ings Of each Judges court Such phase in
the career of our judiciary is not altogether
impossible when we think of this Memphis
difficulty. At any rate, let us trust that these
curious conflicts between our Judges will not
in any respect derogate from the dignity and
high standing of the bench; but let us rather
believe that their action in the premises has
been the result of jealous care for the con-
tinued purity of the judiciary and for the i'm
partial administration of justice.
