UNION AND AMERICAN


UNDER THE NAPLES.
By sALLIE A. BROCK.

Under the naples sat Jenny and ],
Ever 30 many years ago,
Watching the streamlet murmuring by,
And gurgltng love-song in its flow;
And heecy clouds, in a phantom troop,
Ecudded across the brlght-blue sky,
While our hearts were weaving, In many loop,
A mesh for the lives Of Jenny and 1.

There are frosty streAks in the auburn hair
That twined round my hlgers years ago;
And the brow Of my wife may be less fair
Than II seemed in that sunsets rudy glow;
But know when clasp her to my breast,
There's wilder thrill than in days gone by,
When the clouds sank royalty down IN the west,
As Rnder the NAPLES sat Jenny RndI.

It seemed not strange that her tiny hand
Should nestle so trussingly fond in mine,
And her auburn ringlets' gold-brown STRAND
Ny clumsy fingers like silk should tw1ne;
And right It seemed that her bright young head
Should find pillow upon my breast.
As the clouds, in gold and purple and red,
Sank royalty down IN the fAr-od west.

For that old, old story had told
The story of anxious hopes and fears
While over her rinslets dark brown gold
Was falling q shower Of pearly tears
Tears that hung on her eyelids fringe
Like dew on the fresh-born buds OF May
And her bushes deepened their roseste tinge,
As tenderly kissed those tears away.

Her heart was mine, though her lips refused
To utter that longed-for syllable, eyes,
But musing she sighed, and sighing she unused,
What meant her signs aud N Isings-guess7
But then we pledged by the streamlet's flow,
AS the stars peeped out from the twilight sky,
Ever so many years ago,
Under the naples, Jenny and I.

pointment as United States District Attor-
ney for this District, in the place of R. Nc

subject of the appointment was being con-

bilities are that no change will be made till
after the April term of the Federal Court,
if at all.

Tho Ladies', sprisg Fashions.

Waterproofs, overshoes and umbrellas were
out yesterday to see the preliminary display
of spring fashions in the shops. But the
shops, like so many hothouses, forced the
season, and, in spite Of outside wind and rain,
bloomed with every variety of cameo shades
and other novelties in color as well as in
cut. The cameo shades have been decreed
to be fashionable, not only for spring silks,
but also for less costly dress goods. On
Monday, the opening day with few dry goods
houses, many suits, each comprising hat,
sacque and underskirt, were exhibited, in
which ''the dresses ara finished with trim
mings of the same color, but Of lighter or
darker shade, according to the taste of the
wearer." Such are the so-called cameo suits.
The color Of the gloves may match with the suit
or even with the strings of the hat, the bright
est blues pnd green being admissible, although
for evening delicate lines of yellow, lilac or
flesh color are preferred. The shops seem to
be amply supplied with gloves, but those
imported from Paris must have been invoiced
before the French capital was besieged. The
marquise is the latest style. In boots, en-
broidery has snpers sded rosettes and bows.
The absurd attempt to revive long trails for
walking dresses has happily failed, and
while the skirts are longer than they
were a few years ago they are still short
enough to clear the mud of our street cross
ings and the water pools of the worst and
most neglected sidewalks in the world.
But without further entering into details
with which more than twenty thousand visi-
tors will become familiar on the opening day of
the dry goods stores, it will suffice TO record
the suggestive fact that the largest proportion
of the fabrics offered for spring wear are of
American make and are comparatively mode
rate in price. 1t may be added that although
the Partisan modistes, who have for long
months been languishing in exile at Brus-
sels declare it to be impossible to invent
acceptable new fashions anywhere outside
of Paris, and authoritative fashion journals
here are, therefore, compelled to have
their fashion plates drawn in the shops
New York modistss the latter have proved
fully equally to the emergency. The endorse
ment of their skilful inventions by our most
elegant bellies will hasten the time when New
York, instead of Paris or Berlin, shall give
laws to the realm of fashion throughout the
world

The Royal Marriage.

By special telegram from London, for
warded through the Atlantic cable, we are
enabled to place before the readers of the
HERALD complete report of the marriage of
the Princess Louise of England to the Marquis
of Lorn. The ceremony was performed in the
Chapel Of st. George, Windsor, yesterday, in
the presence of royal and aristOcratic as
sembla.e. The scene which was presented
inside of the sacred edifce was brilliant
in the extreme. Queen Victoria was
present and gave the bride away. The
Duke and Duchess Of Argyll attended.
The bridegroom and bride were accompanied
by gentlemen and ladies of the most dis
tinguished lineage. The ''happy man" appeared
nervous and slightly agitated. The bride made
the responses to the officiating prelate in a
clear, audible voice. At the conclusion of
the ceremony Queen Victoria folded her
daughter in her arms and gave her loving,
motherly kiss. The bridegroom knelt and
kissed the Queens hand. The far Orient
was represented by the presence of the Right
Honorable Benjamin Dsrael and an Asiatic
princess, the latter biasing in scarlet
diamonds and gold. Mr.. Disraeli occupied
himself, previous TO the advent of the royal
party, in studying the rubric Of the Church of
England, which directs the performance of
marriages, in copy Of the Book of Common
Prayer. 1t may be for future use in Paria-
ment. The people were out in crowds. joyous,
good-natured and festive. The newly welded
mir took fhair daporfura from, Windcor for
Claremont for the honeymoon amid enthusi-
astic demonstrations of the good viii of the
populace.

culottes and gentlemen of the pavement" of
Paris have glim nering of this thing in their
proposition to respect the treaty s.ipulations
with Germany. They propose, then, to pay
the indemnity Of thousand millions of dollars
required of France, though they may upset the
republic of Theirs, and set up the republic of
"hberty, equality and frater ity," as they
comprehend it. How, then, will they meet
this indemnity? By the very simple process
of the confscation of the surplus property
of the wealthy French people; for, according
to the rel republican theory of equality. 'pro-
perty is theft, }" and the profits of banks and
money changers are stealings from the commu-
nifty, and belong to the community or the State.
That such fears exist among the French pro-
perty- y-holders concerning the s'reds" we know
from the elections to the present Assembly
that such fears exist among the Catholic pea
santry in reference to the property and irsti
tutions Of their Church has been proved in the
same elections against Gambetta and Com
pany. Most likely, at all events, from the ex-
cesses Of the ''reds" Of Paris, the French pro-
vinces and the returned soldiers Of the late i'm
perial armies will support M. Theirs in the resto-
ration of the Orleansts or the Bonapartes. 1t
is still possible, however, that NJ. Theirs may
effect a compromise with the 'reds" of Paris,
which will give the republic upon reasonable
and conciliatory platform, another chance in
an appeal to the French people. 1t is still pos
sible, on the other hand, that France has

road Of revolutionary factions, demoralz alton
and confusion, which may reduce her to the
political and financial condition of Spain.

THE BROADWAY WIDENING CAsE.-The mat
ter of the proposed widening of the upper por-
,ion of Broadway and appointment of commits
sioners under the recent act of the Legislature
to that effect was to have been argued yesterday
before Judge Cardozo, of the Supreme Court.
1t was impossible, however, for the Judge to
hear the argument, owing to the multiplicity
Of other causes on the calendar requiring his
immediate attention. 1t was arranged, how
ever, to have the argument of the counsel
begin at ten o'clock next Tuesday morning and
to be continued from day to day till the close.
There is formidable array of lawyers retained
In the case, and the amount of talking that
will ensue is sure to be proportionately exten-
sve. The old saying that talk is cheap, but
it takes money to buy land applies only
partially to this case. When first class lawyers
do the talking it is expensive, but the latter
part of the proposition holds good. 1t will
take money, and good round sum at that
to put the widening job through the courts.

The Pneumatic Tube.

The bill for the construction Of this under
remains now in the hands of Governor Hoff-
man to decide whether this great wrong shall
be imposed upon the people or whether he
shall strangle it by his veto. We hope that
Governor Hoffman, who has, ever since his
accession to Office, evinced so much discretion
in dealing with bad legislation, will not con-
sent to making this bill law. We hope,
fu,hermore, that he will not only veto it, or
let it 60 10y default for want of his signature,
but that he will give rs, in his explicit and
forcible way, the reasons why this outrageous
piece of legislation should never be allowed to
go upon the statute book. What is this pneu-
matte tube scheme? 1t is the underground
arcade railroad over again, which was killed
in the Legislature last session. It means
undermining Broadway, to the great danger
of every building on that thoroughfare. 1t
gives to the company almost unlimited rights
to take and dispose of the property OF citi-
zens. If the road were to be built 1t would
obstruct the traffic Of Broadway for years to
come, for it will take ten or fifteen years to
complete it.
Kwould ruin the business Of that great hirh-
way, and reduce the value of property there
nearly fifty per cent. If scientific expert
ments of this kind-and the pneumatic rail
road is only an experiment after all-are to
be tried, why not select some less valuable
and less populous portion of the city, east or
west Of Broadway? Why pick out this street,
without which the metropolis would be
nothing, to bore under, to shake it to it's
foundations, to impede its business and
destroy the value of its property? 1t has
been intimated that there is no Intention Of
building this road at all-that the charter has
been sought and pushed to its present position
in the Legislature on the part of some indi-
viduals for the purpose Of getting bought off
by the owners of property which this scheme
threatens to injare. If this be so, if it be
blackmaling job, it is an additional reaso n
why Governor Hoffman should put q quietus
upon it.
We regard the passage of this bill as the
most atrocious piece Of legislation for this city
which has occurred for many years. We have
confidence in the Governor, however, that
when he gives the bill due attention he will
see its enormity, and will refuse emphatically
to confirm it with his name.

THE FEELING IN THE FRENCH PROVINCES -
Strangely enough, we have no intelligence of
revolutionary uprsings in Lyons and Mar
seilles, those hotbeds of insurrection and dis
affection. Heretofore they have never failed
to respond with alacrity to the call to arms in
Paris, and on more than one occasion they
have set the capital an example in the way of
an uprising against the regular authorities.
However, should the Paris insurgents main
tain their position for few days longer the
Southern cities will doubtless join in the
movement to overflow NJ Tbers and the Ma
tional Assembly. Thus far the only symptom
Of active sympathy in the provinces with the
Paris insurgents has been exhibited at kouen,
where copies Of an insurrectionary proclama-
tion have been seized and their circulation
prevented. But even there, as, indeed,
throughout France, the reports agree in repre-
senting the country quiet and orderly.

The Emperor William to the German
Parliament.

The members of the North German Reich
stag assembled in Parliamentary session in
Berlin yesterday. The occasion was one of
more than usual interest. His Majesty the
Emperor William presided on the throne. 1t
was his first official appearance since his return
from the seat of war. The Emperor deli
vered speech in which he referred to the
''glorious but trying struggle" which had
just been terminated, its mode of coVluct
and probable consequences. His Majesty
paid due honor to the soldiers Of the nation
and . merited compliment to the unity aud
patriotism of the people. He promised that
Germany, independent" would ''respect
the independence of others" The war har-
ness being taken off, the Parliament is to
apply itself to the work of recuperation, to
tanned in treading the path to victory. For
South Germany he has Cancellation; for
France, pity; for Europe in general,
hopes Of peace. Glory, with territory,
is not acquired cheaply. We find,
therefore, that his Majesty William touches
gently on the financial economies, glanc-
ing mildly toward an increased budget
Of treasury expenses. The Emperor
endorsed the recent work of the London Con-
ference. lie thus quietly acknowledged the
restoration of France to her position in the
family of the European nations, and, as it
appears to us, tided over the Eastern question
of the Black Sea navigation in very easy
and non committal manner. The Emperor
William is prudent as he is valiant.

THE FINAL ADJOURNMENT PROPOSITION in

at what moment, through death or severe
illness on one hand, and the destinations Of
the flowing bowl on the other, he may be

The FRENCH ARMY AND N. THIRRs.-Not
the least significant among our dispatches
from France is the one which announces that
the French army journals denounce M.
Theirs as the author of the troubles in Paris.
These journals, more or less, represent the
sentiments Of the soldiers, by waom they are
supported, so that their denuncation must be
regarded rs boding little good for the govern
ment should the Paris insurgents venture to
advance upon Versailles.

WI. DelocIuZe,s Apology.

Following our usual custom, which is to do
justice to all and wrong to none, we printed
letter from Henri Delecluze, who, it seems, has
brother somehow mixed up with what we have
been in the habit Of calling the ''reds" in
Paris. We never had any desire to misrepre-
sent French republicanism or French republi-
cans. We shall be glad if NM Louis Blanc,
Ledru Rollin, Victor Hugo and Delecluze de-
nounce the conduct Of the faction which now
rules Paris, and which has, to all intents and
purposes, inaugurated a Reign of Terror
Until they do denounce such scoundrelism we
must hold these recognized leaders RESPONSE
BILE for the excesses Of the so-called republi-
cans of the moment. If Victor Hugo, Ledru
Rollin, Louis Blanc and the others do not cry
out against the murderers of Generals Gle
ment-Thomas and Lecomte, then Victor Hugo,
Ledru Rolin, Louis Blanc and Delecluze, if
Delecluze be one of them, must be regarded
as parttctpes criminis. If we properly un-
derstand our correspondent he is not sorry for
the excesses which have been committed
afresh in the name Of the republic. We are
sorry to have to say it, but we honestly avow
our belief that French republic is not pos
sibility. The French people, it seems to us,
have lost not only selfcontrol, but self-respect.

NAPoLEoN's CAPTIVITY AT WILHELMsHoHE. -
We publish in another page of the HERALD
this morning an interesting communication
from our special correspondent at Wilhelms-
hohe, who, since the captivity of Napoleon,
has been stationed at that point in order to
keep the readers Of the HERALD thoroughly
posted on incidents relative to the fallen En-
peror and other matters of interest likely to
occur in that historic locality. The events
which from time to time have transpired
have been duly chronicled, and from
reference to these records, as well as to the
present letter, it will be seen that Napolcon's
captivity at Wilhelmshohe has been employed
in earnest study and careful thought, noting
changes, watching events, and calculating the
chances for the restoration of his dynasty.
If his studies in the college of Ham," as he
at one time facetiously termed the prison Of
his early years, gave him the empire which
he recently lost, it now remains to be seen
whether during his detention in Wilhelms-
hUhe he has been able to study out plan by
which his restoration to power may be accom-
plshed
