Ex.QuEEN Isabella AND Her DAUGHTER
SUED BIT 4 JEwELER.-The Civil Tribunal
of Orleans, France, has Just given Judgment
10 a suit brought BY N. Gilllon, a Jeweler OF
that city, against the Princess Isabella Fer.
nandA Of Bourbon, InfantA Of Spain, aud
against the eT Queen Isabella, her sister. 10
law, and against the French Minister OF the
Interior, under the following circumstances;
In 1869 tho Princess Isabella Fernando ar
rived at Orleans, to place her three children
TO be educated, the boy at the Petit Semi.
naIre, and the two girls at the convent OF
the Sacre Cmlr. Her Royal Highness at
| nrst nllghted at a hotel, but afterwsrd, on
! the invitation Of the Minister OF the Interior,
removed TO the grand apartments OF the
| Prefecture, where balls and other tsts' were
given 10 her honor.
GA the observation of the Princess that,
not expecting TO be received with such
honor, she had not brought with her any
Jewels, and cOnseq lently could not appear
In a state behttlnR her rank, the Project re-
quested N. Gllllon TO submit 10 her Royal
HighneSs his stock OF wares. The trades
man was quite unacquainted with the Prin-
cess and her position, but conhdinR In the
recommendation Of tho functlonAry, he al
lowed her to select different articles 10 the
amount Of INA franco, In addition to
suit Of pearls and aInethysts valued at 5000
francs, aad which, requiring some altera-
lions, were afterwards forwarded through
the Spanish Consul at BAyonne, according
to instructions from the Minister Of Foreign
Affairs at Madrid.
The Infanta was to pay for the jewels
after her return home, but the drafts of NJ.
| Glllon were returned dlshonOred, and he
afterwards found that she was hopelcssly
insolVent, having enormous debts, while her
whole resources consisted In an allowance
! from the Treasury, but which Is not liable
, to seizure by creditors. Her reputation 10
Madrid was, besides, such that she could
not obtain credit for any article OF the most
Insignificant value. NJ. Glllion consequently
brought the present action TO recover the
| ll,7le francs from the Princess Jointly with
the French Minister Of the Interior, on tho
ground that he, the Jeweler, had been solely
Induced TO supply the articles by the invita-.
tlon OF the Project, and by the attentions
shown 10 the Princess In accordance with
| the instructions from the Minister the six
thousand francs were claimed from the Queen
because the jewels were forwarded through
her Majesty's diplomatic agent.
The Court rejected the demand against
tue French Minister and the Queen, but con-
demucd the Infanta lsabella-FerDanda to
pay the sum Of H., ne francs with Interest
and costs.

Nothing, perhaps, could more clearly
illustrate the irresolute weakness the
boasting fool-hardiness and the needless
disregard OF consequences which seem to
actuate the leaders Of the Feniarf moyc-
Ement, than the late attempt at an invasion
Eot British territory by way Of Vermont
and New York. 1t must be evident Chat
the actual conquest Of the Canadian do
nin;ons by these Fenians is an absurd
Iimpossibilitv. All the Fenians in the
United States, organized, equipped and
disciplined in the best possible manner,
could not hope to gain possession of Can
ada against the opposition of the Cana
dians, backed by the strength Of the Brit
ish government, even il the United States
authorities were to allow them perfect
liberty to raise and equip armies, pur-
chase arms and munitions of war, plan
Expeditions and carry on active prepare
tions within our borders. But when we
consider that the Fenians who did at
tempt the invasion scarcely numbered a
few thousand, that the quarrcls and dis
sessions in their own ranks were such, as
to defeat the very object of the invasion,
and that the policy, of our government
must necessarily beopposed 20 allowing
any infraction of our neutrality laws, we
cease to wonderat the fool hardness of
the attempted invasion, and can only look
upon it as q mere trick of the leaders to
retain their popularity with the deluded
Irish whom they have 50 long swindled
and outraged. But had the projected
raid proved successful, supposition al
most impossible to. consider, the conse-
quences surely must have proved more
disastrous to the cause which the Fenians
advocate than It's defeat.
& The true explanation of this raid, as
well as that of 1866, appears to be sub:
stantially this,-The Fenian leaders for
wears past have been drawing from the
Irish in the United States, immense sums
Hof money They have been living on fat
salaries for the glory IF Ireland, and the
time had come when it had become nee
|essary to do something to keep alive. the
feeling which supplied them with the
.wherewithal This raid, known to be .
safe and harmless exploit was planned
aud executed They can now rest on
their laurels for a yearor two make ex-
Itravagant speeches and collect more
money, and when the funds are low,
