Our good natured friend, Mr.. Loomis.
the lively Columbus correspondent Of
the Contmerriak. suggests that it might
be a good thing for the itinerary com
mittee Of investigation of the Soldiers
Orphans Home to exercise its power Of
sending for persons and papers by in
viting us to expound. as it were, before
the committee the report of the Trustees
Of the Home. We had supposed that
report to be a plain, concise and simple
document; nevertheless being always
willing. though not particularly anxious.
to assist the uninformed in the pursuit
Of knowledge we would not find it in
our heart to withhold any service. how
ever humble, which the committee might
deem auxiliary to the proper fuI6llment
Of its solemn mission. We say solemn
because, be it understood, this investi-
CATION relates to soldiers orphans. and
everything which relates to soldiers or
phans must create a feeling of profound
solemnity in the hearts of the commit
tee, some of whom witnessed the late
unhappy strife whereby these children
were orphaned. from that remoteness of
view which heightens the-effect and pro-
verbally lends enchantment to observa-
ton. We desire to observe. however,
with becoming modesty. that if the COM
mittee under its power to ''send for pa
pers" would send for the GAZETTE. to-
gether with the spicy letters of B. J. l.,
it might obtain some useful hints and
save US the embarrassment of-aPpearing
before so august body in PrQbrfa Per
soma. Meanwhile we await the action
of the committee with fear and trem-
bling.

Wan NOTES.

The evidences multiply of extreme
distress in Paris by reason of the search
ty of food. Favre has appealed to the
Emperor of Germany for assistance.
confessing that he had overstated the
amount of provisions on hand. The
revictualling of the city goes on slowly,
and it is reported that even yet large
numbers are dying of starvation. Sew
enty thousand persons have requested
permission to leave the city.
Bourbaki's army seems to have been
almost annihilated by Manteuffel. Large
numbers ofthe French soldiers perished
of starvation, and of the entire force
but 5000 escaped in the direction Of Ly-
ons. Others fed into Switzerland
Bourbaki has died from injuries self-in-
hicted during fit of temporary insanity.
In obedience to a decree issued by the
government at Bordeaux and also by
that at Paris, an election of members of
the National Assembly was held on
Wednesday last. To this Assembly will
be referred all proposals for peece. and
upon it will devolve the duty of con-
structing a new government.
An unfortunate dissension has sprung
up among the Republican leaders, re-
sultng in a complete rupture-between
the Paris Government and Gambetta.-
The latter, as chief of the Bordeaux
Government, has undertaken to exclude
from participating in the elections a
large portion of the French people by
reason of royalist sympathies and an
tecedents. The Paris Government has.
on the other hand, promulgated a de-
cree annulling the electoral disabilities
imposed by that of Gambetta, and in
sisting upon free and unrestrained
election. In this action Favre's govern
ment is sustained by Bismarck. who Off
cialIy declares the Germans will only
recognize an Assembly composed of
freely elected delegates. This quarrel
has given great hope to the imPerialists
and strong reaction against the Re
public has already taken place among
the emotional French. Even at Bor-
deaux the Mobiles have of late been
shouting IT7e 2 Em6sret0.
The London Conference on the East
ern Question convened on the I'd, and
has resulted, so it is said, in an arrange
ment of all essential points in the Black
Sea controversy on terms entirely salts
all her demands and yields no thing.

GEN. BEATTY Oh SAN DOMINGO.


Gen. Beatty made a sPeach in Con-
5ress a few days ago on the San Domin-
20 question in which he takes ground
tgainst the acquisition of the island on
iccount of the climate, its effects on
white men. the attempts of England.
France and Spain to hold the island and
the character of the people inhabiting
the island.
The General introduces abundant evil
dence to show the deleterious effect of
the climate of San Domingo on white
people settling there, as also the turbu-
lent character of the people. If we could
have the island without the people we
would much prefer It, though we have
not come to the conclusion that San Do
mingo with its miserable, quarrelsome
people, IS at all desirable or necessary
for either the present or the future pros
perity of Uncle Sans rather large fam
ly.

a sufficient caution against allowing him

[From Harner,s Weeklv.l

The Governor of Pennsylvania, in his
late message, urges the Importance of a
new Geological and Mineralogical Sur
vey of the State of Pennsylvania and
we trust that'his advice will be followed
by the Legislature, and that the pro-
posed Survey will be initiated at an early
date. The report of Prof. Rogers, al
though very valuable in many respects,
is yet far from embodying the entire
amount of information needed to obtain
an idea of the vast mineral wealth of
Pennsylvania and there is no doubt
but that a new examination, conducted
in connection with the latest modes of
research, and by competent men who
will doubtless be called upon to take
charge of the matter, will yield an i'm
mense amount of practical information.
