A despatch from Rome TO the Times
says: Pss sanante, the would. ba- sssas /,
sin Of King Humbert, manifested the
most perfect unconcsrn and brutal self
assurance while undergoing his pre-
liminary examination. It is evident
that he had calmly meditated the CON-
mission ofthe act, and fully made up
his mind to the consequences. At one
point in the examination, when the
magistrate expressed horror at the
deed the prisoner had attempted, the
latter said, at seems TO mt you re get
ting too excited" On being asked II
he mad not observed that the people
would have torn him to pieces but for
the police, he replied: "The people
are fools; they always act that way
TO a question as to whether he had
intended to kill the King or merely
wound him, he answered: my inten-
ton was to finish him." He said he
was neither an Internationalist nor a
Socialist; that he did not know the
meaning of these words; but he failed
to satisfactorily account for an Interna-
tional work found in his possession.
The King will confer the collar OF the
Annunziata upon Signor Carroll, whe
restrained tie would he assassin.

n plAsssnt social event Of last evening
wa. the second wedding reception Of
Mr. and Mrs. James Mackin, given to
thor New York friends, in the Windsor
Hotel. Mr.. Msckin is State Treasurer
of Nsw York, and his bride was Miss
Sallie Britton, OF st. Louis, daughter of
ex. Mayor James H. Britton, Of that city.
The wedding which took pace last
Wednesday, was the first grand social
event Of .,e season in St.Louis, and was
az elaborate affair. The bridal party
rcs, aed this city yesterday, and went
immediately to the Windsor. r..
The reception Of last evening was
held in the general parlar Of the no,
tel, the supper bsing laid in the octa
gon room, across the hall. Both rooms
we're filed with the rsrest flowers, aud
the company present to greet the
young bride was large and brilliant.
After receiving her guests, the bride
was taken in to supper by Ex-dov-r,
nor Tilden. On again entering the
parlor, Mrs. Mackin introduced MIR.
Tilden to several of her friends, and,
suddenly turning to young lady in
d-licat. blue brocadsd silk said; "Gov.
Ttden, allow meto INTRODUCES yougtc
M )ss Hazohin-, ofaSt. Louis, the ladysto
wi Som YOU are engaged, you know.' -
Mr.. Tildsn, much smbarras ssed, hssi-
tated ana blushed at thus being
brought face to lace for the first time
with the lady whose name has recently
been SO publicly connected with his;
on recovering himself he laughed over
the widely circulated reports, and treat
cd the whole affair as good joke. The
meeting between the tormer strangers
had been anticipated with much inter
est, and formed quite the event OF the
evening.

Bismarck has no reason TO be dissatisfied
with the results of the first ballOtings for men,
bers Of the new German parliament. The So
clallStS, though they have pOlled a large pOpu-
lar vote, have sustained serious losses in the
matter of representation. The combinations
formed against them have been notably sue
ceSsful, and the other parties have also largely
Increased their popular vote. The entire
JOpula len of Germany qualified to appear at
the polls has turned out with remarkable una
nimlty. The conservatives have made large
gains Out of the 3g7 deputies in the last
relchStag only 81 are named as belonging to
this party; 90 conservatives have already been
chosen in the present elections and there are
Is Cases in which second votes are necessary.
These supplementary elections take place in
districts where no candidate has received an
absolute majority and only the two candi-
dates that stood at the top of the poll CON-
pete. The results OF the second ballots where
so many representatives are involved, are of
great Importance In determining the relative
strength "f the numerous political parties that
divide y German vote; and in this case tie
standing of the National Liberals cannot be
determined until the supplementary elections
are he'd. It's probable that their representa-
tlon will be reduced, but that the various lib.
eral elements in the parliament will still ag.
gregate larger vote than any other faction.
Their lead will not, however, be so great that
combination of the conservatives and ultra.
mOntaneS cannot control the reichStag. Bis
marck seems to be aiming at the union sug-
sested, but il is not easy to believe that a sat
isfactOry arrangement between such uncOn-
genial elements can be effected.

A member OF the Potter committee is repre-
Sented by the Washington correspondent of a

already been brought out by that body to
warrant the Impeachment of President
Hayes. and that there will be no trouble on
that score, as the democrats will have ma
Jority of the Senate after the 4th of March
next This statesman overlooks the posi-
bility that there may not be a democratic
House after the 4th of March next, to present
the articles of impeachment, and that, even if
there should be, it takes a vote of two-thirds
Sj the Senate to adopt them. 1t cannot be that
Il expects so large majority as this in that
