ing success of the present Republic of
France, the fact is unquestionable that
there remained a powerful party there
who watched and waited for the restora-
tion of the Empire, and who would have
welcomed with ecstasy the return of the
young Bonaparte to the throne of his
great-uncle, Napoleon lie Grand. What
that party may become now, by reason
of the Princes death, remains as yet
predetermined. There are some indica-
tions Of its entire dissolution.
The present representative head of the
Bonaparte family is Prince Napoleon
jerome, son of Jerome, brother of the
Great Emperor, and once King of West
phalia. He is married to the Princess
Clothilde, daughter of Victor Emanuel,
late King of Italy, and sister to the pres
ent King Humbert. OF this marriage
there are two sons, the eldest now seven
teen and the other fifteen years of age.
This would brina che line of SUCCESSION
to an issue very satisfactory to the
French Imperialists, no doubt; because
it would conjoin the blood of the Bona
parties with the blood of the Bourbons
and the House of Savoy, the latter two
of which the Princess Clothilde, their
mother, represents.
The stumbling block in their way lies
in Prince Jerome himself; for he is a
"stalwart" Republican, and refuses to
assert any claim to the Bonaparte
throne. His vehement assertion Of re-
publicanism cost him the favor and
friendship of his cousin, the late En-
peror, and caused his expatriation. With
such uncompliant material as this, the
French Imperialists can not proceed.
He is known to be man of marked
ability, and can not be shaped by others
to suit schemes unapproved by himself.
Thus situated, the Imperial party find
themselves in dilemma from which
extrication is 50 difiiult that dissolution
must probably result.
But the Bonapartes are by no means
extinct as a family The sons of this
Prince Jerome, if they survive him, may
come to assert their rights under the
Napoeonic dynasty. And, as being
descendants of the House of Savoy, Italy
might well be pleased to see a grandson
of Victor Emanuel mount the throne of
Imperial France. Evidently, the world
} has not done with the Bonapartes vet.
France is almost as revolutionary as
Mexico. And, in some of her convul-
sions, another descendant of the Corsican
may seize the reins of power and sway
the scepter of restored Empire.

Successful Hunt for Beavers.

Recently Mr.. Jas. Shackelford invited
some friends to go with him on beaver
hunt The beavers had damned a branch
in his field, and the time of the year had
arrived for them to depredate on the
corn crop, and the safety Of it required
breaking them up. The dams were cut,
the water let off, and the beavers hunted
in their holes by men with guns and dogs
and small boys. Six beavers, old and
young, were captured.

FRANCE AND THE BONAPARTEs.

Inc recent tragic uealn OF lAc young
Prince Imperial Of France under the
spears Of the savages of Zululand, in
South Africa, has produced a deep sen-
sation throughout Europe. BY lineal sue
cession the Prince, christened as Napo-
leon Eugene Louis Jean Joseph, stood as
the head of the Bonaparte family and
representative of the Imperial title of
the Napoeonic dynasty. 1t was on him
that the French Imperialists rested their
hopes of the restoration of the Empire,
whose throne he should mount as Napo-
leon ". On these hopes the young
Princes death has fallen as fatal
blight.
Independent of the political considera,
ions connected with this melancholy
event, the circumstances attending his
stalking Off are such as to awaken sad,
ness and sympathy in every breast, sad.

death, "pierced with seventeen wounds

heart seems pierced with wounds as deer

waiting for a Catastrophe.

There is law which is intended to guard
against the overcrowding of excursion
steamers. 1t provides that ifany passenger
tors shall issue to such steamers a special
permit in writing, in which Shall be
stated the number of passengers that
may be carried. If steamer is
used for excursions without obtaining
this permit the owner is liable to the
United States in penalty Of five hundred
dollars, one-half to 60 to the informer, and
the vessel may be seized and libelled in
any United States District Court having
jurisdiction of the offence. If, after OBJ
tanning the permit, q steamer violates the
conditions on which it was granted by car
rying greater number of passengers than
is authorized therein, the owner becomes
liable in n similar fine.
From the manner in which the excursion
steamers that leave New York on Sundays,
and especially the small Harlem River
boats, are overcrowded 1t is certain that the
law is constantly violated at the risk of
many lives, and that the inspectors are
shamefully neglectful of their duty. No
pretence is made at limiting the number
carried on these Harlem River boats, and
the passengers are packed on board until
no standing room for an additional per-
son can be found. One boat, said
to be licensed to carry two hundred pas
sengers, had on board last Sunday more
than double that number. 1t IL evident
that the inspectors are waiting for catas-
trophe before they take notice Of these
glaring and perilous violations of law. But
