FRANCE.

PARIS, June 21.-Elic Frederic Fory.
Marshal ,of France, died yesterday /;
aged sixty-eight years.
Political affairs are apparently ap-
preaching a crisis. The interview yes
terday between the delegates of the
Right and Thiers tends TO complete the
rupture between that portion Of the AS
sembly and the President. The mem
bers of the Right, to the number of
three hundred and fifty, have since held
a meeting, atwhich speeches were made
expressive Of great irritation at the atti-
tude of the Chief Executive, and it was
resolved TO leave Thiers TO rely entirely
for support to his administration on the
party of the Left.
During the session Of the Assembly
to-day, the delegates of the Right sum-
mOned the Duke d'Aumale to confer
ence in the COMMITTEES room.
The members of the minority all ten
dered their designations to Thiers before
his interview with the delegates Of the
Right, but they were all persuaded
by the President to withdraw their Iesig-
natiens to-day, with the single excep-
ton of NJ. Larcy, the head of the De-
partment of Public Works, whom, it
appears, the Right have offered induce
ments to persist in his determination.
The delegates of the Left, in the mean
time, are quiet spectators Of the ex-
pected crisis in public affairs, but obtain
an Observant attitude. 1t appears that
counter proposals of France to Germany,
in the matter Of an early payment Of
the indemnity TO the latter, were not, as
has been reported, dispatched to Berlin
yesterday morning, but nevertheless, a
favorable solution Of the negotiations
between the two powers for anticipation
of the payment and gradual relief Of the
French soil from armed occupation, is
expected on terms much the same as al
ready stated.
Marguerite Dixblanc, who was sem
fenced to death for the murder Of her
mistress, has been reprieved.

ENGLAND.

LONDON, June 21.-It is now stated
that Z. Smith of,the Atalants Boat Club
lost both heats of the Henley sculling
match yesterday instead of one only, as
was at first supposed, and that he has
been declared out of the race.
The following will explain the posi-
tion of Smith, of the Atalantias, in the
contest at Henley for the diamond sculls:
Smith rowed in both the second heats
on Thursday, winning the second but
being defeated in the sixth, by which,
as loser of the heat, he was disentitled
to row in the final heat, which was
rowed to-day, and was won by Krolley.
There were ten competitors in the con-
test for the sculls, and until the conclu-
sion of the sixth heat the American
seemed to have an excellent chance for
victory.

THE BOSTON JUBILEE.
The Coliseum Filled with an Enthusiastic
Audience-The Day Dedicated
TO Austria.

BOSTON, June 21.-At the Coliseum
this afternoon the audience was fully
equal in numbers and enthusiasm to
dedicated to Austria, the Kaiser over
ture, dedicated to the Emperor Francis
Joseph, was performed by the orchestra,
and created great enthusiasm. Madame
Pecheska Leutner excelled all her pre-
vious efforts. She first sang Cavatani,
from the first act of ETHdli, which was
eRcOred, when she gave Abt's beautiful
"Good Night, My Dearest Child" un-
der Abt's direction. 1t was not without
many acknowledgements that the lady
was allowed to leave the platform.
Strauss repeated his beautiful Blue
Danube" and on encore again gave his
+" Rizziacatop polka" which set the en-
tire audience dancing in their seats as
the great leader danced his time on the
platform.
The popular feature of the day was the
performance of the English Grenadier
Guards Band, who gave the overture to
"Semiramede and several other selee-
tiOns; the effect upon the vast chorus
and audience being electrical. Madame
Rudersdorff was led to the platform
when the applause subsided, and awaited
the solo opportunity in "God Save the
Queen" The refrain was led by the
gifted lady, accompanied by the Grena-
dier Band, chorus orchestra and cannon.
The solo was sung through with great
effect and received unbounded applause,
and when the band added their
" Allegro " in repletion, the chorus and
audience insisted in joining. The grand
organ followed, and for few minutes
the scene was beyond description. AS
the band marched up the long aisle
through the chorus seats amid cheers
and the waiving of handkerchief, Gil
more, on the spur of the moment, start
ed "Auld Lang Syne," which was sung
with an expression of warmth not wit
messed since the festival begun. The
concert closed with the grand old corona
ton hymn, in which the audience Joined.
The Executive Committee decided on
another choral week. The programme
will consist of all the most brilliant fea-
lures of the present week. The prices
will be reduced to three and two dollars,
according to the location. O

Democratic ticket zealously, efficiently,
unitedly. Meetings must be called in
every part of the county. The work
Of organization must begin at once. 1t
is useless to wink out of sight the fact
that, before triumph can be gained on
the first Thursday in August, there is
much work to be done. The Radi-
Gals of Shelby, though beaten, have by
no means laid down their arms. Bar
bOur Lewis, and Curry, and Mclean
will come into the field, and will not
hesitate to pour out money like water to
secure their success. We must be pre-
pared to meet them by zeal and efficient
organization. In a contest between
Sam p. Walker and Barbour Lewis; be-
tween Curry and Jack Doyle; between
Mclean and George r. Powell, party
lines viii be distinctly drawn. The Radi-
Gals viii support one ticket; the Conser-
vatives the other. Those who refuse to
support the ticket nominated yesterday,
and which floats at our masthead this
morning, will be counted as against the
DemOcracy-as working with its deadly
enemies. Let every Democrat do his
duty in this canvass, and the Radicals
left in Shelby county viii be buried in
the Potter's field, with no funeral cor
tege to attend it to its last resting place.

GENEVA.

GENEVA, June 2l.-The representa-
tives of Great Britain before the tribu-
dal, have gone to Chamaux, where they
will stay. The Americans have not left
for Paris as they intended doing, but re-
main in this city. 1t is believed that the
reason for this changein the programme,
is that supplementary articles to the
treaty, upon totally new base to the
one submitted by Granville, are now
subject to negotiations. The chances
for a satisfactory issue are believed to be
increasing.

Speeches.

New YORK, June 2l.-The situation
in regard to the labor strike remains
practically unchanged. All indications,
however, point to an early completion
of the movement. Compromise is now
much more frequent word in the
mouths of the strikers than the original
war cry of "No surrenderw The temper
Of the men Is much better than last
week, and any recourses to. violent or
illegal measures to further their aims
would appear to have been abandoned.

piano makers at Steinway's factory,

A Dead Lock on the EIectOr Question
in the Missouri legislature

ST. LOUIS, June 21.-The Lower
House of the Legislature yesterday
passed bill amending the present law
so that additional Presidential electors,
allowed by the new apportionment act
of Congress, can be elected by the State
at large. The Senate referred this bill
to the committee. There is almost a
dead lock between the Senate and the
House on this matter, the former desir-
ing to redistrict the State in the regular
way, while the latter wish simply to
amend the present law providing forthe
election of electors at large.
The impeachment trial of Judge Luz
cas- progresses slowly in the Senate.
A later telegram announces that the
State Senate to-day rejected the House
bill to amend the State law so that four
additional Presidential Electors may be
elected by the State at large. Also pass
ed a resolution requesting Governor
Brown TO modify his proclamation so as
to authorize the Legislature to re-district
the State into Congressional districts.
