lFRoM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT
BosroN. MAY u. 1871.

Boston, May 81, 1871.
The large schools here, both publ; and private
always offer subjects for conversation or discus
sion. The lively debate in regard to Saturday
sessions at the Latin school has been put to rest
for while by the decision of the committee in
favor of such sessions; and attention has been
turned for the last few days to the defamation
and the military drill of the school boys. On
Saturday morning both the galleries of Music
hall were filed with spectators who watched
with pleasure the annual prize drill of the
Chauncy-Hall battalion. About one hundred
pupils of that large and admirable school gave
an exhibition on the floor of the hall, of their
skill in military training; there was drill by
company; competitive drill by squad of pri-
Yates for gold medal; battalion drill, dress pa
rade; and an entirely novel feature in Boston. a
sword drill by the officers. 1t was all excellent.
but occasional outbreaks of applause from men
and boys, who probably knew all about it, mark
ed some special skill, or perfection which es-
capped the observation Of those who had never
been trained in the exercises. Beautiful bouquets
of roses and yiolets were flung from the gal
leries by pretty girls who watched impatently for
the favored boys to come within reach; slight
cloud of anxiety fell on their faces till the bouquet
was picked up, and found its way to its destina-
ton; then bright smiles came back, and the
boys carried the flowers proudly and conspicu-
ously; all this with the addition of music by
Gilmore's military band made the scene very
animated, and the spectators showed no signs
Of WEAKNESS, although the entertainment lasted
more than two hours.
Rothermefs huge picture of the battle of Get
yspurg Is sun on exhibition here. Mr.. G. L.
Niles exhibited at Birds art gallery large MIC
ture of the Adirondack mountains, with fore.
ground of MOSES and fallen trees, painted with
great care; the time is apparently a chilly dav in
early autumn; broken gray clouds drift across
cold blue sky, seen above and between the
lofty mountain tops; mist clings to the noun
tain sides; there is chill in the still lake al
their feet. The mist and the water are well
painted, and the picture is full Of good points
but it fails in representing distance, and is moi
suggestive. Mr.. Miles has two smaller land
scapes which are more pleasing, at the art cul
exhibition, where there are several things
worth seeing. W. A. Cay has a mountain
village at Lake Como, and a stern, dark
view Of Eagle Cliff, Franconia; Griggs has a

ITEMS FROM NEW YORK.
New YORK, May 22.-Mr. Greeley writes from
New Orleans that cotton and corn were never
before SO backward at this season. The corn is
likely to suffer from drouth, while the cotton is
exposed to utter destruction from worms. To-
day the prospect of the average southern plant
er is decidedly not cheering.
The Lackawanna railroad has reduced its coal
freight to the tariff before the strike.

in some neighboring city.
A company has lately been formed of Euro.

The reign of the commune in Paris is over.
Few details yet reach us of the confused and
desperate fighting going on Sunday and yester-
day in the streets. The end is certain and close
at hand, for the barricades which the commun-
list troops have amused themselves with building
are absurdly useless for defence, and the effort
to hold them can only increase the slaughter and
misery in which the wretched revolt ends The
next scene in the drama is awaited with curious
interest. The Versailles government nominally
a republic, with NJ. Theirs as its head, seems to
have the control of France, but how
long it will maintain itself, what changes
it win assume and if it falls
or retires what form of government
will succesm It, are questions which few will
ventpsfe to answer with any confidence, al
ts6oagh eoujectures are plenty enough. France
may be a republic, a monarchy or an empire,
but of these republic is the least probable, and
the restoration of the empire would not be sur
prising sluce the national army now is led by
the officers most devoted to the emperor, and the
excuses and absurdities Of the commune may
lead Frenchmen to go, in their disgust and fear,
as far as possible to the other extreme.
