THE President has met sharp rebuff
In his San Domingo scheme by tho I'D.

Foreign Affairs. Ho seems to have his
heart set on the acquisition, however,

with Generals BabcoCk and Porter, and
Sent4or sixteen Senators In succession to
confer with him in the Presidents room.
The object Of his visit was to explain his

guns should be discharged simultaneously by
a fuse as soon as the President, with his cor
tege, was in front of them. II the plan had
been accomplished, the carnage, in the
crowded streets of city on fete day, must
have been terrific; but it is one of the amiable
chara cteristics of such conspirators to con-
slider it better that ninety innocent persons
should suffer than that one whom they con-
slider guilty should escape. Fortunately, the
plan was discovered, by the vigilance of the
police, on the day before the President passed
by that window.
The second attempt was made upon the
Emperors return to France from his visit to
England in 1855. On the 28th of April
man named Pianori, who does not seem to
have had any accomplces, approached very
near the Emperor while he was riding on
horseback in the environs of Paris, the En-
press accompanying him in a carriage The
assassin fired twice at his intended victim
with revolver, one shot grazing the En-
perors hat. The criminal was instantly
seized, and afterwards executed. The Senate,
in body, called upon the Emperor with their
congratulations for his escape. In his reply
he said:-"So long as 1 shall not have accom-
plished my mission incur no danger"
The third attempt was made by the Italian
1evolutionist Orsini and his accomplices,
who, as the Emperor and Empress, on the
l4th January, 1858, were approaching the
opera in their carriage, a dense crowd being
around, threw under the carriage several
bombs of terrific power. A large number
were killed and many more wounded by the
explosion, but the Emperor and Empress
escaped entirely unharmed. Here again was
displayed the recklessness of innocent life pc
culiar to these extremists in their plots, as
well as the bungling execution which kills
its friends and let's its enemies escape.
In view of these and the result of the
latest attempt at his assassination, the En-
peror, it is presumed, still considers his "mis-
sion" unfulflled. He appears, however, in his
measures for establishing parliamentary gov
eminent and perpetuating his dynasty, to
recognize the approach of the inevitable end,
but with the determination to be "naster of
the situation" to the full extent of human
capability to the last moment of his own
recorded time"

taneously, from the Greek drama and philo-
sophy, and of late years, with decided pre-
ference, from Shakespeare. The loving zeal
and fidelity with which Jules Janin has per
formed his literary and journalistic functions
should be an example to those who treat
dramatic criticism rs an occupation for any
Jack of all trades and master of none. In
country where dramatic authors are origi-
nal adapters, there is most excuse
for this low appreciation of the Office;
but certainly Jules Janin's enthusiasm was
more conducive to the dignity of the press
and the self-respect of public writer's His
judgments may not always have escaped the
charge of partiality; undoubtedly he had his
favorites and his fancies, but if he sometimes
erred on the side of indulgence, he never
sinned against integrity and charity in his
criticisms. And thus it happens that this
prince among critics has reached the confines
of old age beloved by all the surviving con-
temporaries of his earlier years, and by his
younger brethren; and in the chorus of con-
gratulations from all sorts and conditions of
literary men in Paris saluting the new Aca-
demician there will not be discordaut
voice. His signature in the DebGtS has been
cordially welcome to many readers beyond
the frontiers of his own country, and has won
him many friends who never saw his face
Nor were his dramatic criticisms the only
credentials with which he presented himself
to the suffrages of the Academy. He has
written several short novels and history of
the revolution. But these were his ''pot-
boilers. His labor of love was his translation
of 'Horace;" and if sympathy of nature and
congeniality of tastes and temperament are
the qualifications of a translator, it would not
be easy to find more Horatian interpreter of
the delightful Roman poet than Jules Janin,
whose cottage at Passy (where Ponsard died)
is his Sabine farm

If the late alleged plot for the assassination
OF Louis Napoleon is not, as supposed by
some, mere invention of the Government
for political effect, it is the fourth attempt OF
the kind which has been made upon his life.
The first of these occurred in 1852, when, as
Prince President, he was passing through
Marseilles ON triumphal journey. An in
fernal machine was constructed, consisting OF
more than hundred musket barrels placed
in room upon the ground floor of house,
so as TO sweep the street with certain death
to all before it. 1t was designed that these

AN INTERESTING AND DOUBTFUL
QUESTION-IS MIR. GREELEY A PRO
FAME SWEARER 2

QUESTION-IS MIR. GREELEY A PRO-
FAME SWEARER
From the N. Y. Sun.
Among the many side issues which have
arisen during the trial of the Mcfarland case,
QUE of the most singular Is the question
whether the Hon. Horace Greeley does or
does not swear. We do not overstate the
matter when we say that the public take an
unusual interest in this subject. The great,
though of late rather low-toned journal which
Mr.. Greeley conducts is probably read by a
larger number of evangelical clergymen than
any other secular newspaper in the country,
and the fame of its founder has extended be-
yond the boundaries of this republic.
Common rumor, too often disposed to ill,
would perhaps decide this question against
Mr.. Greeley, in advance of fair and full
investigation of the facts For example, it
was charged, and even believed, that Mr..
Greeley, while a member of the late Consti-
tutional Convention, and within the very pre-
cincts of the State Capitol, swore vehemently
at Colonel Duganne, another distinguished
member of the convention; and that when he
finally departed from the hall, shaking the
dust from his feet in condemnation of the
dilatory proceedings Of his colleagues, he left
a stream of expletives behind which casual
listeners mistook for swearing. But all this,
as we have said, is matter of rumor, and i:
not supported by any legal proof.
Though clergymen, according to the canor
law, may be arraigned, and even condemned
on common rumor, no manager of progres
sive journal in this enlightened era, anC
especially not the philosopher of the Tribune
need submit to be tried by rule which origi
mated in the dark ages of monkish supersti
tion. Mr.. Greeleys case is to be disposed o
on its merits; and if he is to be rudely &C
cused of profanity, he is entitled to the bene6
of every reasonable doubt which can make il
his favor. According to this just rule every
body who knows Mr.. Greeley would, at th
first blush, render verdict in his favor with
out leaving their seats, except for one or tw'
careless answers given by him while witnss
ia the Mcfarland trial.
Some time ago one Isaac G. Reed, Esq
