CARNOT FIRED UPON
\ Retired Soldier Shoots at th
 French President.
THE AssAILANT HELD
He Received . Terrible Beating and
 Would Have Been Lynched Had the

Was Blank
 PARIS, May 6.-Intense excitement was created throughout Paris yesterday by the rumor that President Carnot had been shot.
 Crowds of people were in the open air cafes on the Champs Elysees, at the back of the palace inhabited by the president. As soon as the report reached them there was @ general exodus and @ ruEh down the Avenue Marigny toward the Elysee to learn the truth of the rumor at the palace itself.
 There it was learned that the president started in an open carriage, attended by a squadron of cavalry, for Versailles to attend the fetes, and that at the corner of the Rue Saussaies and the Rue..du 3au- bourg St. Honore, not stones t row from the palace, discharged )ldier named Perrin pulled out a revolver as the presidents carriage passed and, pOintin ng 1t at Carnot, fired.
 It is now known that the cartridge was blank.
 M. Carnot remained very cool, and called upon the coachman to pull up his horses. Then, in the calmest manner possible. he inquired of one of his equer- ries who had fired the shot.
 Meanwhile crowd of people had been attracted by the shot, and seeing the smoking revolver in Perrins hand, con- cluded he had tried to murder the presi- dent. Like enraged wolves some rushed at him, threw him down and jumped upon him, while others stood around gestlculating in the widest manner.
 Perrin would certainly have been lynched had not the police come to his rescue. AS it was, he received @ terrible beating,
 Perrin was removed into custody, where he said that his occupation was that of marine storekeeper. He had not had the slightest intention of killing the president, and had only fired blank cartridge. He said that while serving in Martinique he had been illegally placed in prison for an offence he had never com mitted, and he shot at the president sim. ply for the the purpose of calling atten' tion to his wrongs. Perrin is evidently insane on tho sub ject of his grievances.
 . The revolver he used was what is gen. | erally called British bulldog" After Perrin's capture the president proceeded to Versailles.

experience, of course, in the publicac1o. of cheap magazines in that which has honorably borne their name. This new departure in the field of periodical litera- ture is significant, and one foresees that 1t may be first step towards a gradual modification of the old system of half crown monthlies and six-shilling quarter lies. The first number of the New Re- view is expected to appear on the 1st of June, something like year later than the appearance in the field of the half crown Universal Review, whose letter. press is SO lively and whose illustrations are so comic a commentary on the devel- opment of English illustrative art.
 Those readers who have followed at all the oerper of H. D. Traill, and are in- terested m his writings, satirical and otherwise, will find certain significance in his appointment as editor of the now rather old-fashioned Observer, which will take on q somewhat new aspect, no doubt, under his guidance. Some of the former staff of the paper, well known in literary circles, will probably disband to reunite in the new paper that MT. Fred erick Greenwood, late editor of the St. James Gazette, is organizing. These signs of change, taken separately, may not seem to have much importance out side the inner circle of London journalism.
 but taken together they are characteris- tic of the way in which many of the fa- ] miliar coteries in social, literary, politi- cal and general criticism are being broken up, and hence they deserve at any rate note in passing.
