ted to hold it to. day, it must be that, in bis
place of immense responsibility and labor he
has not been found wanting. He is soldier
and good one, experienced in arms and an
able critic in military affairs. He has fought
eighteen campaigns in the field, in Algiers,
Italy and the Crimea, and is the author of the
famous work on the French army which first
revealed it's weaknesses to Europe. He is SIS
years of age, and is still thought capable OF en
during long the prodigious labors his situation
imposes, while, more perhaps than any other
man in France he commands the confidence OF
the people in his patriotism and truth. He is
believed to have OF heart the cause of the Or
leans family.
Jules Favre, the minister of foreign affairs,
is six years older but still stout and strong.
For forty years be has been the resoute op-
ponent of kiugcraft in every form, and for
nearly generation has been recognized as the
foremost republican orator of France. Fearless
in every emergency, he has faced the Emperor
in the height of his power-coming forward 10
1858 to defend Orsini for attempting TO assas-
sinate Napoleon, and for the last eleven years
heading the fororn hope of the republican op-
position in the Legislative Assembly. He is
finished writer and member OF the academy,
and is believed by his, friends to have the
genius of a statesman, although The govern
ment of lS4S, in which he acted as under Sec
retary OF foreign affairs, was failure.
Pierre Magne. the new Minister Of Finance,
has had long experience in the office, having
served the Emperor in it from 1854 to lS6O.a
again from 1867 to the beginning of the present
year, when Olivier came into power. He IS q
successful fnaucier, and although he has not
been prominently associated with the policy OF
personal government" yet he has been load
ed with all the honors the empire bad to give.
He is sixty-iour years of age
Jules Simon. the Minister of Public In.
structiOD, has always been q moderate repub-
licaD, but has gained his great reputation chief
ly in the advocacy Of popular education. and
bis appointment indicates purpose to do away
with the widespread iliteracy and ignorance
which have so long been the disgrace of the
nation.
Cremieux the Minister of Justice, is an old
man, q great lawyer, an effective orator, and a
political economist of influence. He held the
same Office in the revolutionary government Of
lS4S.
Gambetta, the Minister of the Interior, is the
youngest member of the government, born, 1T
is said, in 1888. He has been CONSPICUOUS tor
several years as the ieroest of the 'lrreco1Gll
able' republicans; as bitter an enemy OF Ma
poleon as Roohefort, but with broader views
and far more self control. A large party In
Paris predict for him great career.
This government is mostly made up OF men
who have not been tried in the Offices OF states

WAsHINGToN, June 20.-The following
amendment was proposed by the Senate Com
mittee on Finance to the House bill for the re-
duction of taxation. They strike out the first
eleven sections of the bill being all those which
provide for the retention of the various special
taxes, including the tax on bankers, rectifiers
dealers in tobacco, lotteries and passports etc
and in lieu provide for the repeal of all special
taxes whatsoever from and after May 1st, 1871,
with the exception of the special tax on brew
ers, distilled spirits and tobacco. The bill also
provides for the repeal, on and after the first oil
next October, Of the several taxes on sales i'm
posed by the existing laws except such as are
paid by stamps and the tax on sales of leaf and
manufactured tobacco, snuff, foreign and do
mestic cegars, distilled spirits and wines. 1t
also repeals the taxes on articles in schedue
A, special taxes on boats, barges and floats, on
legacies, SUGGESTIONS, passports and gross re
ceipts.
1t said that the repeal is to take effect on the
first of next October. The committee also
propose to strike out all the sections of the
House bill relating to stamps, thereby leaving
in full force the provisions of existing laws
with the exception that stamp taxes on prom
issOry notes for less sum than one hundred
dollars, and on receipts for anv sum OF money
and on canned and preserved fish are to be re-
pealed from and after the first of next October
and no stamp will be required upon the trans
fer or assig nment of mortgage, except on the
sale thereof, or when transferred or assigned as
collateral security. The sectiOhs of the House
bill relating to the income tax are not altered
in any material particulars except the cause
is striken out which limited the deduction on
account of house rent to $500. The com mittee
report in favor of striking out the provisions OF
the House bill requiring manufacturing, min
ing, gas, coal and bridge companies to pay a
tax on their dividends, but leave the other pro-
visions relative to corporations unaltered. An
additional section authorizes the President to
consolidate collection districts.
The tax on sugar below No. Z Dutch stand
ard is fixed at 3-4 cents per pound; between
Nos. 10 and 13 2 cents per pound between
13 and 16, 2 12 cents per pound; between 16
and 20, 3 cents per pound; and above 20,
cents per pound. The new tariff GOES into eff
feet in October, 1870, instead of December as
fixed by the House.

This was writ of h1beas corpus praying that the

u)ner and respondent, be decreed to the mo her.
The hearing was had some time since and this morn
ing the Judge delivered his opinion. He found that
the separation of the husband and and wife were
solely from The bad temper and quarresome DISPOSE
tion OF the petitioner; that the respondent was
man OF tempera nabts, industIi 'us and honest,
but had been embarrassed by debts contracted by
his wife. In the opinion the wife was not suitable
person to have the training of the child and on ac.
count OF the inability OF the father to provide suta-
BILE accommodations for the child, on recommenda-
d,n of Bishop Bacon, he decreed that the child
should be given to the respondent on condition that
she be sent as soon possible The Catholic inst-
tuition under charge Of the Ladies OF Mercy in Prov-
dcnee, R. l., the father agreeing to contribute 500
annually towards defrayng the expenses of her edu-
calion.
When this announcement was made, the mother
manifested great apparent emo ton screamed and s-
tempted to seize the child. After she got out
court room, she continued h.r outcres and when she
got into the corridor below she grew begereut and
asaulted the respondent and his brother with an
umbrella swearing and jabhering meanwhile at the
top OF her voice. Quite row in progress, when
the sheriff arrived and held the frenzied woman till
her husband ami the child were out of sight.
