the 10th Of May to produce sneers and in
the part of the moderate republicans.
They knew they could count on
tho sub-acute hostility Of their own
partisans to the President who in their own
language had betrayed tho conservative
cause" when the poor Marshal, under the
stress Of iron circumstances, had only SUB
mitted" to the national will instead Of taking
the perilous alternative Of resigning, as
Gambetta put the dilemma in which the
Marshal would and did find himself. All
these sinister hopings and forecasts here
have been signally disappointed.
RoYALIsT sNEERs RETURNED
The organs of tho ex-Premier, Due de
Broglie, and of the imperialist factions be-
gan some time since to sneer at 'Krantz's
Bazaar" as they termed tho Exposition, NJ.
Krantz being the very capable organizer
and manager Of the beautiful exhibition on
the Champ de Mars and the Trocadero. They
reckoned without their hosts. The Paris
ians are not blind to their own interests.
The Marshal had given pledges Of his
conversion to q belief in a genuine and not
o sham republic, and besides, material
point, would not successful Exhibition

Paris: That is where the Exhibition
tickled the Iouryeoisie TO what end should
they pull Bonapartist and royalist chest
nuts out of the fire, burning their fingers?
So the sneers were returned hundred fold
and the guns were turned tho other way,
and pretty effectively
CITIZEN TRIUMPH.
This resentment of the masses stirred
them up to make the opening day q memoir
able one for France. Nothing was spared.
They came out by tho hundred thousand,
until the ceremonies and their attendant
rejoicings together made the opening the
most imposing and effective ever known in
the history Of such enterprises. The most
gratifying feature Of the whole affair was the
perfect good humor and peaceableness,
teaching the invaluable moral that tho peo-
pie, left to their own responsibility, were
the best guardians Of public order.
GOOD FOR THE REPUBLIC.
Tho monarchical and clerical organs can
not conceal their vexation ut the result. 1t
has done more to advance the Republic in
the minds Of the timid and wavering than
anything which has occurred since the
funeral OF Theirs.

OUR PICTURES.
Our Ane art department is more ad-
vanced. The pictures are all in place.
They leave much to be desired. Many Of
the best names in American art are unrep-
resented and many have poor examples.

THE HAPPY MAB.HAL
1t is q subject Of general remark how
President Mac Mahon accommodates him
self to republican surroundings and seems
contented and happy. He is particularly
pleased with his new found popularity and
stands good chance for second term.
CARDINAL M'cLosKay.
Cardinal McCloskey visited the Exhibi-
ton to-day. He was escorted by Mr.. Nc
Cormick, the Commissioner General Of the
United States His Emincnce will sail
from Havre for tho United States on Satur-
day next, the 18th inst, in the steamship
Periere.
JETEs IN PLENTY.
Thus far republican Paris Of 1878 stands
fair comparison with imperial Paris Of 1867
in the matter of ietes. The Marshal secures
quito as fno q result as his erst imperial
master did with his Exposition. Money is
flowing like water. The modistes and tailors
ore bewildered with orders. Brilliant fetes
are given nightly.
AT THE ELysEg.
The reception given on Wednesday night al
the palace OF the Elysde, where President
MacMahon resides, was especially brilIixnt.
