Protest from the BOnapartists-Ex-
citement Subsiding.

A Protest from the BOnapartists-Ex-
citement Subsiding.
PARIS, Jan. 20.-The BOnapartist men,
bers Of the Chamber of Deputies have is
sued protest against the arrest of Prince
Napoleon and demand an appeal to the
people. The Chamber Of Deputies by 4O7
to 81 has voted urgency for the motion
made by NJ. Ballue to strike the names of
the Orleans Princes from the army list
The Ministry agreed to the urgency.
The ministerial bill dealing with pre-
tenders has been introduced in the Cham
Der of Deputies. 1t authorizes the Presi-
dent of the Republic by decree given in
Council to eXpel the members of the for
mer reigning families whose presence in
France should compromise the safety of
the State, those returning to be liable to
five years in prison. The Princes who
now serve in the army are to be placed on
the retired list. This last clause caused
an uprOar in the Chamber.
Another bill has been introduced mod
Tying the press laws of 1881. 1t pro-
vides for the punishment of outrages
against the Republic, and makes the Of
tenders amenable to the correctional tri-
bunal.
A vote of urgency was also adopted for
these measueeS. The committee on them
L.
Flaquet will be appointed on Tuesday.
The BOnapartist members of the Cham
ber OF Deputies held a meeting to-day and
adopted resolutions declaring that Prince
Jerome's action was perfectly legal, pro-
testing against his arrest and maintaining
that an appeal to the people is the only
means of securing the future of France.
This evening the Republican journals
declare that the reported Legitimist plot
is merely drawing room conspiracy, the
TEMPS and rationale especially attach
ing little Importance to it. The TEMPS
urges that the Chamber of Deputies, after
giving the recent incidents just that share
of attention which they deserve, revert
promptly to the discussion of more serious
matters.
1t is rumOred that the Ministers of War
and Marine have announced an intention
to resign if NJ. Ballue's motion is adopted,
which is, however, highly improbable.
LONDON, Jan. 20.-A dispatch from
Paris says Princess Mathilde has been
permitted to see Prince Jerome. She de-
plOres the publication of the manifesto.
The Times Paris correspondent, refer
ring to reports of Legitimist rising, says:
"a systematic attempt is being made to
raise scare at the expense of the Legiti-
mists, the obvious purpose being to push
on NJ. FlOquet's proposal, 1t is Just pos
sible that handful of heated Legitimists
may be dreaming of the possibility of
rising, thus forcing Count De Chambord
to show his hand"

SIX ENGINES SMASHED.
A Series of Collisions in a Binding
Snow Storm.

DENVER, COL, Jan. 21.-The Tribune's
Albuquerque special says: Thursday
evening an engine on the Atlantic and
Pacific Road, while making an effort to
force the blockade of snow between Cool
edge and Fort Wingate, jumped the track
A second engine in the vicinity came to
the rescue, but not being able to render
thesneeded assistance, two more engines
were telegraphed for from Coolidge
These started for the scene of the accident
at full speed. In the binding snow,
nothing was seen in the way, when sud
denly there was a tremendous crash, and
the fragments of the four Cotton engines
were piled upon the rOadbed. Charles
Larkin, engineer of No. 6, and his fireman
were seriously bruised, and several others
were slightly injured. Yesterday after
noon the men working on the
wreck, being exhausted from fatigue
and cold, Coolidge was again
asked for assistance, when two
more engines, with the way car loaded
with wOrkmen, started for the scene of
the accident. The snow was binding and
the wind blew so terrific that no OBJ
ject could be seen ahead, and the rescuing
train, sweeping along the track, went
crashing into the wreck of the other four
engines, adding ten-fold to the confusion
already existing. Both engines and the
way car were completely wrecked, but no
one was seriously hurt. The storm was
the worst known for years. The danger
lights were completely covered up, and
the intense cold made it impossible for the
signal men to be Out1

THE TREATY WITH MEXICO.
Grants Views as to Its Effect Upon the
Commerce of Both Countries Reci-
prOeity Likely to End inlAnnexatiOn.

Grants Views as to Its Effect Upon the
Commerce of Both Countries Reci-
procity Likely to End in7Annexation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-The attention
of General Grant was to-day called to the
statement of New York paper to the
effect that his object in negotiating the
Mexican commercial treaty was to so re-
duce the revenues of the Mexican Govern
ment as to make it impossible for that
government to pay the subsidies pledged
to railroads now being constructed in that
country, and thereby place them on an
equality with the Gould unsubsidized pro-
jected line.
The General says the statements are
entirely incorrect; that he never spoke to
Gould upon the subject, and that his be-
liefi that should the treaty be carried
into operation the effect would be rather
to increase than to diminish the Mexican
revenues by the increased trade it would
develop. The Gould road is one of the
subsidized lines, and would be as much
affected by the reduction of Mexican
revenues as any other of the subsi-
died lines. General Grant says
he has acted in this matter in the
interest and as the representative
of the American people, and he expects
that the results of the treaty will be
highly advantageous to the commercial
interests of both countries. There is no
probability that it will interfere with the
sugar producing interests of the United
States, as Mexico does not produce
enough sugar for her own consumption,
and will not for years to come be able to
raise a surplus for expectation. He is
fully satisfied that if ratified the treaty
will give our country a decided ad-
vantage over Germany, France and Eng
land in competition for Mexican trade.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 20.-To-mOrrow's
Ptcdyune will publish an editorial on the
reciprocity treaty with Mexico, containing
the following: "There is an extended be-
lief that the reciprocity treaty with Mex
lcomeans annexation. We ourselves can
not see any other result. Once break
down the barriers of custom houses and
tariffs, once permit our people to accus-
tom themselves to free and unrestricted
intercourse with Mexico in regard to to-
bacco, machinery and sugar, and no power
on earth can arrest further and more
intimate political connections. 1t has
been argued by an able and active expo
nent of this idea that necessarily the in
terest of the newly acquired Mexican ter
ritOry, which will be carved into a half
dozen American States after annexation,
will be Identical with Texas. Louisiana.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-The following
dispatch was sent to-day to the Governor
of Tennessee;
"NEw YORK, Jan. 20.-HiS ErcelIency
lVn1. b. Bate, Governor Of Tennessee: Re
ferring to a communication of the 29th
ult., addressed to you by the committee of
Tennessee bondholders, a copy of which
was forwarded to the Speaker of each
house of the Legislature, we protest
against the assumption that the compro-
mise OF last May, pursuant to which about
one-half of the State debt has been funded
for three-fOurths of its value and at a
reduced rate of interest fo- a period of
six years, can be Oyerthrown and the
creditors of Tennessee forced by an act Of
its Legislature to accept one-halt of their
dues ana one-fOurth their interest. The
compromise Of last May was the second
agreed upon, besides the several findings
of interest and bonds in default in former
years. The bill of settlement now before
the Legislature is no compromise, but an
attempt to coerce the States creditors,
and as such is repugnant to every senti-
ment of justice, morality and fair dealing.
1t will not affect the settlement.

SUNK AT SEA.
A French steamer Foundered.

HAvRE, Jan. 21.-The General Trans
atlantic Company's steamer Labrador,
Captain Servan, which sailed from New
York January 3D., has arrived here. She
brings the crew of the French steamer
Picardie, which sank at sea last week.
The Picardie, Captain Fortier, sailed from
New York on December 23d. She was
spoken January 18th and 18th, in distress,
having lost her rudder. The Labrador
came up with her before the 18th and
tried to bring her into port. After towing
her week she was compelled to abandon
her, having previously taken off her pas
sengers, officers and crew. The Picardie
soon afterwards sank
