AFFAIRS IN FRANCE.-From late dispatches it
appears that the Montmartre insurrection in
Paris has taken very serious and dangerous
turn. In the summary of the telegraphc news
in the Union of the goth, we find the following :
" On Friday the President issued grave proc
lamation, advising them for the safety of the Re-
public to lay down their arms. Soon after Vi
noy was sent with detac chments of regulars and
chassenrs to surround and starve out the insur-
gents. These detachmeuts were surrounded by
an angry multitude of ciIizens, with whom they
soon fraternized, and in short time the regu-
lars all went over with the insurgents and lett
the Government unsupported at the mercy of
the mob The situation of the Republic becomes
the more grave when it is known that nearly all
the commanders of armies in France are Bona
partists ready to take advantage of auv such
demonstration as this to overthrow the present
Government and restore the Empire On Salur-
day the mob, through the lreachery of the Na-
tlonal Guards and other troops, made prisoners
of Generals Clement, Thomas and Lecomte,
tried them by q committee, and shot them to
death all in a few hours. These proceedings
have astounded Paris, and the people of order
are wishing the return of the Germans the
Emperor has caused his armies to halt In t6eir
movement toward home. Yesterday the shops
were all closed and Paris was in terror of the
mob. If the French Government continues 10
persecute German residents, the Cross Gazstte
says Germany will re-occupy the environs OF

WE learn from Washington that the Republi.
can party of California is ut the present moment
in state of great agitation and disorganizaton
over the removal of Honorable Charles Sumner
from the Craftsmanship of the Committee of For
eign Relations of the Senate. We say the Re-
publican party of California, because the state
ment covers the whole Republican party of the
country. and of that party the organization 10
this State is, OF course, part and parcel. Till
this light-giving telegram reached us, we were
not aware that Republicans here had got by the
ears and were now tuggiug away at each other
with fierce energy We were of the opinion THAI
no sentiment prevailed hereabouts, but one of
regret that such step had been taken psless for
good and sufficient reasons. IL Mr.. Summer had
been arrogating TO himse greater powers than
egitimately attached to the office from which he
has been deposed-if Foreign Ministers were be-
ginning to regard that gentleman rs President OF
the United States and not General Grant, then
il is possible that that regret may be greatly
soitened. At all events, as a. consequence of
this imbroglio, we do not think that any pro-
gressive citizen in this State will consider il to
be his duty at once to turn his coat and Join the
Democratic party. There is a general belief
among all those who feel An interest in the
welfare of California that we have had about
enough of that concern for all practical pur-
poses.

TILE LATE HORACE HAwEs.

I did not know that Mr.. Hawes was at the
point of death when wrote last, and if had
known it, do not think ! should have used
milder adiectives or less forcible expressions in
commenting on his impracticable philanthropy.
The proverb De mortuis and so on, is about
played out, and the obituaries written on Horace
Hawes show that such is the case. Indeed no
one could say that he was good man or that he
had many qualities to be commended. Except
for his probity there was little about him to
honor and less to praise. His gifts-if that is
the proper term TO use for endowments that
were never intended to be available-were off
springs Of private spite rather than of charity.
His private life was one continued feud with his
wife and relatives, and even his Legislative Ca
reer received much more credit than it deserved
especially in the matter of the San Francisco
Consolidation Act, Of which he not the au-
thor, though he claimed to be. 1t is understood
that his relatives will try to upset his University
scheme on the plea of insanity but it is difficult
to see how they can maintain the allegation,
anyhow, there is not the least likelihood that
the project will mature. The estate is nearly
certain ultimately to revert TO his family, and as
the State has already made good provision for a
University, the prospect is not to be regretted.

UNDUE CLERICAL INFLUENCE.

Another thing that has lately given rise to
much talk, especially amongst Protestants, is
the strange disposition of property made by one
Bridget Huen. She died in Saint Mary's hos
ptal few weeks ago from the effects of a pro-
longed debauch, and ut her death bed was at
tended by Father Gallagher. l do not remem-
ber the precise terms or amounts of her bequests,
but it is sufficient to say that of about $4,000
in coin all but very small sum is devised either
10 Father Gallagher for his own absolute dispo-
sal, or in trust for bis Church 1t is alleged
that at the time of her death she was incapable
OF making a will, and the heirs intend to contest
it on that ground. Altogether there is small
harmony and much scandal in our'ocal Roman
Catholic world, and Archbishop Alemany has
somewhat moro than he can do to keep order.

THE EoLIAN HARP.-This is nothing

The AOLIAN HARP.-This is nothing
but tight hollow box, from two to six
inches in depth, (by experimenting you
will ascertain the depth that causes the
best sound) five or six inches in width,
and Of length equal to the width of the
window in which it is placed. To the
ends are fastened a number of violin
strings of various thicknesses to rest on
bridges and be frightened by screws or
fiddle pins. The instrument is usually
placed with the upper surface slightly in
|cl1ned toward the draft of air. 3g1 ISL
We now describe the plan usually
adopted in making this simple harp, on
which Kolus, the god of the winds, new
er played the same tune twice "A box
should be made of very thin cedar, pine
or any soft wood; it should be of a length
exactly answering to the window in which
it is intended to be placed, four or five
inches in depth, and five or six inches in
width. Glue on it at the extremities of
the top, two pieces of wainscot, about
half an inch high and a quarter of an
inch thick to serve as bridges for the
strings, and inside, at each end, glue two
pieces Of beech, about an inch square and
Of a length equal to the width Of the box
which is to hold the pegs Einto one
of these bridges fix as many pegs, (such
as are used inapiano-forte, though not Sc
large) as there are TO be strings, and into
the other fasten as many brass pins, to
which attach one end Of the strings.
Then string the instrument with small
cat gut or first fiddle strings, fixing one
end of them, and twisting the others
around the opposite pegs. These strings
which should not be drawn tight, must be
tuned in unison. To procure proper pas
sage of wind, a thin board, supported by
four pegs, is placed over the strings, al
about three inches distant from the sound
ing board The instrument must be ex
posed Ito the wind at window partly
open and to- increase the force Of the
current of air, either the door ofthe room
or any opposite window should be
opened but, as the force of the current
increases, the sound changes into pleas

and these often unite in the most delight

tention to these directions will enable any
person to make an Eolian harp.-Er
