THE VOTE ON PI1EBI8OITU M. NEW YORK, May 14.—The Tribune's Paris cable dispatch says on vote for the plebiscitum nominally 50,000 negative jnan'ority,but'co«nt ing absentions it is really 130,000. Rochelort's district alone following his counsel to abstain gives 50,000 yes, 16,000 no, 20,000 absentions. The cities next in rank vote no with scarcely an exception. The Emperor expected that at least 8,000,000 would vote yes, as they did in 1852. Therfe are, a million more electfi,Jsut. the number voting yes is 6,000,000 smaller, while the number voting no is 1,200,000 greater. The whole vote is, yes 7,207,379, no 1,530,909, blank 109,900, absentions 1,200,000, reported 70,000.

The vote of the army was managed with the greatest cart. No soldiers were allowed to attiend the political meetings. The whole army votes in barracks, Colonel's presiding. Every man's vote is known. An opposition vote puts a black mark against hii name, stops promotion and is surely followed by punishment. But out of fewer than 300,000 votes there are 40,000 noes. The navy givea 50,000 noes and 23,000 yeaa. Some regiments 50,000 noes and 23,000 yeas. Some regiments give an actual majority of noes.

Two Regiments at Vincennes, following Rochefort's advice, refused to vote, Soldiers at one of the barracks insisted on watching the vote, though they were threatened with being shot for Holding unlawful meetings. In the garrison of Paris the defectum was so serious that General Lebacoff wanted to march several regimentB out of the city, but the Emperor refused, on the ground that this would betray fear. After a short delay tlife severest measures will be taken with those regiments.

The disturbances, in Paris since the vote have been absolutely insignificant,the pretended scheme of assassination fictitious. The barricades were police devices, all of them, to frighten timid voters into the: tanks of the Emperor's party, and have only excited the derision of the well informed.

COMMEMORATIVE SERVICESS"*"1 Yesterday was very generally observed among the Methodist churches of this city and vicinity, as a day of fasting, humiliation and prayer, in consequence of the recent death of tpree ,of .the most eminent divines of that denomination, Bishop Kingsley, Bishop Thompson and Rev. Dr. McClintock. At several churches there were prayer meetings in the p. m. with commemorative addresses, and in the evening preaching appropriate to the occasion. iff

FOREIGN INSURANCE COMPANIES. Gov. Hoffman Uias replied to the letter of Hon. F. A. Coakling 4fce bill in relation to foreign Insurance Companies. The Governor says it is his practice to pronounce his approval on disapproval of a bill when it is submitted.to hiiru, but not before, atad that the report which is current announcing his approbation of the insurance bill, is without authority.

FIRE.

Shortly before two o'clock this morning afire broke out in a large building in forty-sixth street, pear 10th Avenue,, occupied b^ a number of manufacturing firms. The building was very seriously damaged, and a portion of the contents destroyed.

RESULT OF PLEBISCITUM.

The Tribune's cable special from Paris in addition to what was already telegraphed says, the result of plebiscitum disappointed all parties. Republicans and others of the opposition are surprised by-the number of affirmative votes, for they expected not more than five or six millions, but though saddened they are not discouraged. They have, heroically fought eighteen years against imperial despotism, and warfare will never cease until they are successful.

The large affirmative vote in Paris was also unexpected, but on the other hand the great number who voted no in the army equally surprises and alarms the Emperor. The only man entirely content at the result is Oilivier, whose vanity persuades him the majority is a ratification Of his administration, but the true meaning of the vote is far different.

The Emperor's proclamation demands yes as anew proof of France's confidence in himself, and means of facilitating transmission of the crown to his son. The great affirmative majority so tar as it was not fraudulent, did undoubtedly mean that and nothing else. It was a vote for the Empire pure and simple, liberal or despotic as the Emperor choses. Of course a large fraction voted yesterday under the lead of moderate liberals, who tried to believe plebiscitum meant only approval of recent forms. Another large fraction voted yes under fear of plots and revolution. At least two millions out of seven must be credited to the army Or civilian officials, to persons connected directly or indirectly with the vast machinery of the administration or otherwise dependent upon the government.

The rest, 6ay four million, was made up purely by fraud and coercion, partly by votes of bourgeois and peasantry, Napoleonists doubtless by choice, but always for the powers that be in any case. The peasantry in small towns and villages must vote as they are ordered by Mayor? and other functionaries. Of actual force and coercion on the day of the vote there was less than in 1852, but the system remains unchanged. The government during the whole plebiscitory period has systematically applied every means of silencing the opposition and driving affirmative votere to the polls.

The opposition press all over France has been prosecuted- and seized. Journals not seized were refused transmission through the postoffice. Subscription to funds of the opposition committee was treated as a crime Printers were arrested for printing negative balloU, and agents were arrested for distributing them/ The opposition committee's rooms were invaded by police and searched, and papers found there seised. Siace the publication of official repots o£an&lleg

Jish

ilot, no journal has been allowed to pubevidence in disproof of it. The Rappel was seized for printing a letter from Francois Hugo, proving Bedny a police spy.

The Marseillaise was seized for publish ing the report of the Procureur General The Reveille was seiied for doubting the existence of any ilot. The Steele and La Venor were seized for the same offense. From Thursday to Sunday these papers were seized every day.

The provincial newspaper* suffered the same fate. Five prosecutions were instituted in one day against the Rappel, and its editor sentenced to a year's imprison ment for printing a single article by Victor Hugo.

TERRE-HAUTE, INDIANA, MONDAY MORNING.

The system of official pressure by prefects, which Oilivier was pledged to banish, was never more energetically or Unscrupulously enforced. Prefects were summoned weeks ago to-Paris, mljjflh mised complete immunity fox all enorts they should make in behalfof plebiacttuin. Nevertheless the affirmative majority is wholly a inral majority. Frand aid coercion are equally difficult' in great cities, and all the great' cities with most of the larger towns throughout Frfe|MSe have given majorities against the empire. Some part of the huge system of terror and fraud will be exposed by interpolations and the counting of the vote, the opposition to the Corps {^egislatif demand. The Government will oppose any investigation, but cannot stifle questions. The first result of plebiacituaa will be reorganization of the Ministry.

BANQUET,

Genl.McClellan was banqueted at a hotel in liobokcn.this evening, by several officers of the army of the Potomae. Speeches were made by several officers,. Jadge Curtis and others. ., tv

Resolved, First, tjiat gratefull# rS85gnizing that Providence which hasnitherto guided us, multiplied us, strengthened our homes, preserved our integrity as a church of Jesus Christ under trying conditions both of war and peace, we earnestly desire to cultivate true Christian fellowship with every other branch of the Christian church, and especially with our brethren of the several branches of Methodism in this country and Eureipe.

Second, That the action of our Bishops at the last annual meeting in St. Louis in response to the message from the Bishop^ of the M. E. Church, has the full endorsement of this General Conference, and accurately defines our position in reference to any overture? which may proceed from that church, having in them an official and proper recognition of this body.

Third, That the distinguished commission now present of the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church which met at Chicago, May,'1868, and appoiuted by it for the specific.purpose expressed "rn the following resolution, to-wit:

Resolved, That the commission Ordered by the General Conference to confer with alike commission from the African M. E. Zion Church to arrange for a union of that body with our own, be also empowered to treat with similar commissions from any other Methodist Church that msy desire alike union, cannot, in our judgment, without great violence in construing the language of said resolutions be regarded as having been consulted by thit General Conference as a commission to make proposals of union to the General Conference of the M. E. Church South. 1th, Resolved, moreover, that if this distinguished commission were fully clothed with authority to treat with us for a union, it is the judgment of thh conference that the true interests of the Church of Christ require and demand the maintenance of our separate and distinct organization. 5th, That we tender to Rev, Bishop E. Lyons and Rev. W. L. Harris, members of the commission now present with us, sii regards as brothers beloved in the Lord, and express our sincere desire that the day may soon come when proper Christian sentiments and fraternal relations between the two great branches, Northern and Southern Methodism,shal,l be permanently established.

The resolutions were uoattknonsly adopted. A large amount of unimportant business was transacted. Adjourned.

The Cambria "With her new -bowsprit, lengthened twwaud a half feet to accommodate alonger working jib 'proceeded' outside the light shortly after four o'clock Satutdsy morning, in tow Jf:tlie 1 Vested. The Sappho had already arrived there.' towed by thwGem.J Thenind was blowning off the shore west-south-west, with considerabla sea, though let* than ahtic pated.

The Cambria then accepted-a protposalito fcailj sixty milteii.tt windward, "theiconrse to be arOUnd Cherbourg breakwater by western entrance. Ashbury won the toss and took the weather statiou, and everything was ready for the start.

The warning gun fired at 7:20. Presently the Cambria «ig»alfed:'"thi is. not a dead' beat- to windward," and an answer, wan returned, "this is*be bc^t the, iimptrccan do, being onlvthalf it point ofF wind." The- Cambria then flong ont a, signal "dead beat or no (race" Sheww ordered to take her .Ration, but refused.' At 7:45 the wind was. blowing west, northwest eight miles off.
