ILLUMINATION OF BERLIN.

The illumination of Berlin on the
occasion of the return of the En-
peror is thus briefly described by
the German Correspondent: "Yes-
terday evening Berlin was brilliant
ly illuminated to celebrate the re-
turn of peace. The principal
streets, especially Unter den Linden,
Leipziger Strasse, Wilhelm Strdsse,
Kontg Strasse, &C., were literally
one blaze Of light. Stars, crowns.
and other devices, with the initials
of the emperor and Crown Prince,
in gas, were everywhere to be seen.
In various places the streets were
lit up with Bengal lights, the lime
light and the electric light. The
weather was all that could be de-
sired. Notwithstanding the crowd
ed state Of the streets the greatest
order and good humor prevailed:

FROM PARIS,

The excitement in Paris has run
high during the last week. Blood
flowed in the streets of the city. On
Wednesday evening, a collision oc.
Cured between the unarmed popu
lace and the insurgent troops. About
thirty were killed and wounded by
the volleys of ofmusketry. Quiet was
again restored. The latest news,
however, represent matters in the
city as no better. There have been
no more scenes of actual violence
but there are indications that the
present quietness is but the calm
before storm that may drench the
city in blood. 1t is difficult to de-
termine just how matters stand and
what is really at the bottom of the
incipient revolution, or what is to
come out oft. The most plausible
theory is, that the close Of the war
found that city infested with worth
less yagabonds, who had grown SO
confirmed in their idleness and dis
solute habits, that they could not
quietly accept the new order OF
things which peace brought about
There may be some political zealots
acting as leaders over the mobs, in
order to accomplish some object OF
ambition, but we are inclined to
think that the great masses of the
rioting rabble mean nothing less than
plunder and robbery, and are actu-
ated by no other loftier motives.
The signs are that much blood will
flow yet ere full order is restored in
France. -4 ....- 4ra ..Hfa 81
