THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY.
An Interesting 0ccasion-Paper b
Hon. Colin M. Ingersoll-Remark

An Interesting Occasion-Paper by
Hon. Colin M. Ingersoll-Remark
From G. b. Lines.
A very interesting meeting of tho New
Haven Colony Historical society was held
last evening, the attraction being the reading
of a valuable paper by Hon. Colin M. Inger-
soil entitled 'Leaves from the Diary Of q
Young Man in Europe in 1847-S-9."
Mr.. Ingerson said that he had brought
with him one of the two large manuscript
volumes in which were jotted down in the
day and time of it daily impressions of
scenes and incidents which passed under his
eye during visit under the reigns of Louis
PHILIPPE in France and the Emperor Nicholas
in Russia. He proposed to read the manu-
script record of few days in Paris in 1847,
to read it without corrections, as a young
man with his head full of novel sights, fresh
from the quiet home of his childhood, wrote
it, with no idea that these pages would ever
meet the private, much less the public criti-
cisnn, and he therefore asked the indulgence
of his hearers.
Mr. Ingersol1 introduced his audience to
an account of grand ball at the Palace of
the Tuileries where some 1000 persons in
brilliant uniforms and elegant toilets were
assembled, and where he met the king,
louis Phillipe), the royal family, the king
and queen of Belgium, Guizot, Theirs and
other notabilities. Next day at the great
hospital of Paris, the Hotel Dieu; then an
evening with Guizot and the members of the
Chamber of Peers; then day in the Cham
Der of Deputies, in session; q day in the
civil and criminal courts, visit to the
morgue and the fire department of Paris, a
day at the Hotel de Vile, where he
saw the consumption for the army going on;
day at the Sorbonne and a lecture by
Leverrier the now famous astronomer.
Another day in the dissecting rooms at the
same place with Velpeau, the eminent sur
geon, and day at the Royal observatory
with lecture from Arago, the astronomer.
Next an interesting day at Pere la Chaise,
the noted country Of Paris. A day with the
soldiers of France on the Champs de Mars,
and a day at Bicetre, and the school for
idiots, with lessons for Connecticut in be
half of this most unfortunate class of beings.
Then followed hours with John Howard
Home" with the secretary of Ro-
bespierre, then ninety years old, and
with Daniel O'Connel1, Lacordsire and 9TH
ers. Then an account of private theatrical
entertainment at the palace, where he again
saw the king and queen and the royal family
and the qneen and infanta of Spain, and
where Rachel performed, winding up with
quiet evening at the Tuileries, where none
but the royal family were present, where the
king was very entertaining in conversation,
and the leave taking.
Following the paper very interesting re-
marks were made by Hon. Charles B. Lines,
of Kansas, a well known and prominent old
New Havener, who was warmly greeted by
many old friends.

BUNNELL's MUSEUM.
The week opened yesterday with even
| greater success than attended the Corinne
| and her Merry Makers" entertainment last
| week. ''Olivette' was presented splendidly
to overlooking houses. It will be given again
to-day afternoon and evening.
THE MILITARY FESTIVAL.
The military festival is progressing finely
and would be still more extensively patron
izen were it not for the large number of
amusements that are nightly offered to the
public. The dancing in the evening is very
popular and much enjoyed by all the mem
bers of the armory companies. The shooting
in the rifle range is becoming more popular;
the records of all shots are retained and will
be compared at the close of the fair. The
appearance of many of the tables have
l cen much improved by the addition of sew
eral articles that have been contributed to
the fair. The skates have arrived and can
be used during the afternoon or early even
ing.
THE MASCoTTE.
A we'll equipped comic opera company
presented ''The Mascotte" at the American
Theater yesterday afternoon and evening,
large audiences attending at both perfor-
mances. There are some excellent singers
and strong actors in the company, Miss
Marie Heath as ''Bettina,' - though evidently
suffering from cold, doing some very effec-
tive work. Mr.. George Paxton as "Pippo"
sang and acted well, the gobble duet with
tod Tba
other members of the east were all good in
their respective parts. The chorus is large
and well trained, and the members sing with
precision and concert that is very pleasing
to the audience. The company remain dur
ing the week, presenting ''Pinafore" We'd
nesday and Thursday and on Friday and
Saturday the ''Chimes of Normandy"
THE TwAIN-cABLE READINGS.
''Mark Twain" and George w. Gable gave
another of their charming readings last
evening in the New Haven Opera House.
One must read the productions of these we'll
known authors to fully appreciate their read
ings. 'Mark Twain" presents the funny ell
ement and Mr. Cable in his songs and rem
dering of sentiment which characterizes his
writings on Slavery Days puts the nearer in
thoughtful mood and gives him an impress
sion of those days, the history of which is
familiar to US all. The programme was be-
gun by Mr.. Cable with 'ENarcisse puts on
mourning for Lady Byron" which was fol-
lowed by selection on Chuck Finn and
Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain. Mr.. Cable
then gave some Creole songs, which received
two encores. In his FFMary's Nights Ride
Mr. Cable threw much earnestness and force,
which portrayed the scene of young wo-
man making her way silently and stealthily
through the picket lines in an admirable
manner. Mark Twain gave mostly ''Nataral
History anecdotes" and fully sustained his
admirable reputation and his well-known
style. 1t is rare treat to see these two
thors appear together, enjoys laugh,
gains much information and becomes ac-
quainted with men whose writings are every
where admired.

Comparative Morality.
rOillence .IOurn:a

Prudence Journal.
In the United States alone, of coun-
tries making claim to the highest grade
OF civilization, crimes OF immortality
are distinctly and definitely recognize
ed as crimes by the law. The Puritan
leaven is not as strong as two hum
dred years ago, but there is enough of
it left to have deep and, in some Sec
tions, a controlling influence upon
American society, and even where pub.
lie opinion is comparatively lax, it is
something that wickedness is known
by its proper name. The rottenness
OF France is proverbial. 1t has been
eating for ages into the very vitals of
the nation, until now it's effect is plain
ly discernible III a decadencc alike phys
ical and mental. The present genera
ton is paying the terrible penalty for
the past, with the cumulative burden
of it's own, and the Germans, who
were almost despised by Napoleon and
his legions, are now in the ascendant,
not alone because of superior military
Discipline, but because the vigor and
the courage, which are seldom present
in the diseased and effeminate body
and mind, are alarmingly absent from
the Frenchman of to-day. England is
still a nation of fine physical manhood.
Her middle and lower classes retain q
good share OF their ancient virtues,
but unearned wealth and idleness are
sapping the constitution of the arts
tocracy, and vice may be nearly as
rampant, although not as vile, in Lon
don as IN Paris.

Prince Demi(lOf,s Funeral,

The remains of Prince Paul Demidofi
after resting in the chapel of the Villa
di Pratolino during several months,
lighted day and night by enormous
candelabras, were sent from Florence
on the 9th ultimo by special train to
Siberia, accompanied by the widow
and the pope of the family. The
Demidoffs are immensely rich. Their
ancestor, a blacksmith, was presented
with an iron mine and a title ofnobil!ty
by Peter the Great, and bought prop
erty in the Ural, on which were dis
covered extensive mines of copper,
silver, and gold. At the same time as
the CORPSE the monument was for
warded for the tomb in Siberia, exc
cuted by the sculptor Romanelli at
an expense of 40. OOOf The road from
Pratolino to Florence was adorned
with flowers, and the Pullman car des-
tined to receive the coffin was trans
formed into richly ornamented
chapel. At Nijni-Novgorod the coffin
will be transferred to boat and pass
along the rivers Volga and Kama to
Perna, where it will be sent by rail to
Taigul, in Seberia. There the opera
