SUICIDE OF THE FRENCH MINISTER.

Mons. Provost Paradol, the new French
Minister to the United States, had been
presented to the President a day or two
before he terminated his own life by sui
eide. His predecessor, Mons. Berthemy,
has not yet left the country. We see it is
announced that he has engaged passage
by the steamship Lafayette, which sails
for Havre next Saturday.
MI. Paradol was one Of the ablest and
most brilliant journalists Of Paris, and
added greatly to the reputation of the
Journal des Debats by his vigorous and ac-
complished pen. AS a politician, he was
opposed to the policy of Napoleon the
Third, but always treated him with great
courtesy and respect personally. 1t was
the system and the policy Of the Emperor
that Mons. Paradol disapproved, not the
man. Hence he was able to command
respect, and was deemed worthy the
high position of Minister to Washington.
1t Is alleged that the heat of the climate
overcame his nervous system and des-
troyed his reason.

TEE TERRIBLE g

Each day which passes without a formal
declaration Of war enhances the chances
of peace, however slight these chances
may at present appear. If France desired
wal in any event. she would have reaped
great advantage by throwing her forces
across the Rhine, on the heels of her
threatening message to Benedict. She
had the enormous advantage Of being pre-
pared, which Prussia had not. Every
days vacillation is now loss to France and
gain to Prussia, and will have the effect,
if war does come, Of making it all the
more terrible.
The news Of the three hours conference
Of the English Ambassador with the En-
peror, may be taken a. a pacific indica-
ton, for the policy of the British gov
eminent in the present crisis is
emphatically for peace. As long as
the question is not entirely out Of the
hands Of diplomats, al hope may be
entertained that war may be averted, and
honor be satisfied, with some skillfully
drawn instrument Of writing.
Great Britain has the honor of putting
in the entering wedge for peace, and it is
understood that she is backed by the
other great powers. That the efforts of
the English ambassador have not been in
vain, may be inferred from the suspended
action of the French. This pause is
fraught with interest to all the world-to
those Immediately concerned it is terrible.
We hope to hear of more diplomatic
conferences, for talk is a good safety
valve.

MONDAY, JUNE q, 1870.

Many of the friends of Education, and OF
the Universities, Colleges, and Institutes OF
Virginia, regret much the custom introduced OF
ate Of obtrudiug the proceedings OF burlesque
clubs, societies, and associations, upon the
notice of the public, and OF making public eS,
hibitions of what should be confined to the
students themselves-if that sort OF fun is
pleasant or agreeable to them. Young men at
college will have their gayeties, and those who
remember what happened in their own young
days, should be the last to censure innocent
sport. But there is both ''distincion and
difference to be observed. What would be
entirely unobjectionable within the walls OF
college, and confined to class mates, and college
mates, may be quite Objectionable, present
d to outsiders, ladies and gontlemen II not
objsctionable-at least, considered as frivolous
There is a certain dignity to be preserved BY
youth as we'll as age.
