WHY does the Journal persist in suppressing the monthly statements of the public debt? Does it hope to advance "Democracy" by keeping its readers in ignorance of the progress that a Republican administration is making in wiping out the debt inc n'red in suppressing the Democratic rebellion. Is it afraid to let its readers know that during the month jitJUtrfcTf" the reduction amounted to the magnificent sum ot £11,011,250?

TIIEUE has never been a ticket presented, in this city, combining more elements of strength, than that which the Republican party has nominated for the municipal election. There is no reason whv every candidate should not be elect-ed-and not one of them can be defeated except by gross negligence A liitle honest work—st.ii'cient to bring out the full strength of the party—will insure the •success of the general ticket and carry at

least four wards.

SOME "sore-headed" editors are raising the howl that SVMNEK hasn't been treated t'airlv because lie wasn't allowed further time to speak on San Domingo. If it will satisfy the Senator and his champions, -vc suggest that two or three days be given him in which to briefly supplement his ponderous eiYort of last week. Or if, as ha-= been suggested, that eflort was but a pre:atorv performance, let him have a week or ton days to finish the volume, and the Government can put a new loan on the market to pay the public printer. -By*all means, "l.et us have peace."

All honor to our gallant brethren on the border. They have "fought the good light and kept the failh."

This is cheering news to our Republican readers, and we heartily congratulate them on the bright prospect which it opens.

IT JIAS always been the failing of WENDELL PIIILLII'S, savs the Boston Times, to espouse the cause of the weaker party—a gallant streak in his nature that makes up for a great many shortcomings. But he overdid the matter when he undertook to abuse Germany for her victories over France. In his lecture in New York he spoke of that race of "brutesand barbarians," dwelling in the very centre of Europe, and called Germans by courtesy of Prussia, that "danger and curse to civilization of the "blasphemous and bigoted despot of Berlin and his tool, HisMARCK, loaded with the curses of the next generation." And now the Germans, soldiers yesterday, citizens to-day, are re turning" to their peaceful pursuits, and preparing to build up a homogeneous state under the auspices of law, freedom and order, which shall guarantee peace and progress while the French, whom he extolled as the model race, are engaged in the pastime of cutting each other's throats.

THE editor of the Michigan City En-tni-prize puts Senator SUMNER in a tragic attitude, thus: "To gratify his personal malice, he would plunge his bowie-knife through the President, into the vitals of the Republican party."

The idea of the mild-mannered Senator from Massachusetts wielding abowieknife, in as anguiniverous charge "through the President, into the vitals of the Republican party," borders on the funny. We don't think there is any danger of his killing anybody with such a weapon, but there is no security against his smothering hosts of victims beneath mountains of talk.

The editor of the Enterprise misunderstands the Senator strangely in taking him for a fighting man. True, he is fond of war, but takes abundant care to keep his person far from the reach of lead or steel. Even our four years of civil war, during which he contented himself with urging others to fight, failed to satisfy his appetite, and he did his best to plunge us in a bloody encounter with Great Britain. If any one doubts this, a perusal of his celebrated speech on the Alabama claims will settle the question. Mr. SI'MXKII is a great man. So is

will ha\'e a prominent place in history. And of each it will be said that when he could not dictate to his party, he turned his hand against it. Such has been the sad fortune of the Republican party with the great and good men who helped to lay its foundations and rear its noble walls, and who, in turn, were loved, trusted and honored. But it has survived such blows in the past, and will not succumb to them now,

A WASHINGTON SPKCIAL states that Senator WILSON is preparing a speech upon the Southern question, which he wilt deliver, if his health permits, lie has gathered an array of evidence to refute the charge made bv Democratic Senators that the reconstruction policy of Congress has caused this present lawless condition of portions of the South. He will show that there were more murders and other outrages in the Southern States in 1SG5 than any year since that the condition of affairs improved but little in 1800, but that there was a marked improvement in ISO", when the reconstruction acts went into efi'ect. In 1S(58, in the Presidential campaign, violence was again rampant, owing to a concerted attempt in many localities to carry the elections by force. The years of 1809 and 1S70 were comparatively peaceable, and renewed outbreak of violence, Mr. AVILSON believes, is caused by the approach of the Presidential contest, and the determination of the late rebels to carry the Southern States for the Democracy by a system of murder aud brutal violence, which will break up the Republican party in those States, as it did in Louisiana in 1808.

B|KKV. JAMES FREEMAN CLARKE, in "Old and Xeu\" *ays: "A politician is a man who thinks of the next election, while a state-man thinks of the next generation." Exception is taken to this on the ground that the truest statesman is he who most clearly sees the duties of the hour, and most ably performs them for one who can only see the advantages to the next generation, which he knows little about, only ignores the present and works toward imaginary ends.

REFERRING to the Connecticut election, the Cincinnati Commercial says: "All that is necessary to secure a Republican victory. is that some leading Democrat shall declare that the war settled none of the isssues, except that of slavery, which were staked upon the appeal to arms, and that the doctrine of State sovereignity construed in favor of the right of secession is only scotched, not killed."

journals. The assertion that any considerable number of the Southern Demociats repudiate the extreme views that have been enunciated by Judge LINTON STEPHENS, of Georgia, is vehemently denied by tHe Mobile Register, which says it can 6ee no reason why the reconstruction questions should not be an engrossing political topic now, just as they were the first four years after the war, and it tells its

Northern friends that the Southern Democracy demand (this is the favorite word,) nothing more than the National Democracy conceded in the New York Convention of 1868, when, in its platform, it declared these reconstruction measures "Unconstitutional, revolutionary, null and

void." The Montgomery Advertiser does not wish its readers to understand that it advises an unworthy acceptance of, or submission to, the usurpative principles in which the reconstruction measures were conceived, but it thinks expediency may demand that the Democratic Party should go into the next campaign without any written platform, and these acts and amendments "be accepted and treated as dead issues for the canvass." It says: "If some constitutional amendments have been proposed and ratified, inconsistent with our liberties, others may surely be hereafter proposed and ratified, by which the pristine purity and vigor of that instrument may be restored."

The Richmond Enquirer advises caution and prudence on the part of Virginia, suggesting that it may be her voice that will shape the policy to be pursued, and control the selection of the Democratic candidates. The Enquirer at the same time quotes approvinely from the Evening Pout sentiments, which, it says, would do credit to the most conservative journal in the land, and commenting upon them says: "Here is a recognition, and a kindly one, of so much of State rights as the people at large of the Union are at present prepared to claim. More will be claimed at a fitting time, and at length the excrescences which have grown up under the abnormal stimulus of war, will one by one be pared away, until theCon« stitution in nearly its original simplicity, will be reached."

The Savannah Republican, too, quotes what it thinks is sound doctrine from the Evening Fust, and then asks: "But suppose such a measure as

BUTLER'S

The South Carolina papers are giving the first response to Senator ROBERTSON'S letter to four Ex-Confederate officers, appealing to them to assist in the restoration of peace. They are not reassuring. The Columbia Phoenix- is willing to give him credit for good intentions, but complains that Gov.

SCOTT,

when calling up

on leading gentlemen of the State to assist in the restoration of peace, and Mr. ROBERTSON in making a similar call, both sought to give an impression that the men appealed to are responsible for the storm that has been raised. The Charleston Xavs expresses similar ideas, and asserts that the persecuted and halfruined whites have obeyed the laws, and, until within the past few weeks, not a finger has been raised against the constituted authorities of the State. And the Charleston Courier, to the same effect, in sists that there is not a single wrong in South Carolina which may not be traced as the direct and necessary results of bad government.

The Louisville (Ky.) Jenersonian /)emocrai publishes Hon. LINTON STEPHENS' speech at Augnsta, Ga., declaring the reconstruction measures unconstitutional and, therefore, void, and says, that "there is no help but in a readjustment of our institutions, and in a renewal of our constitutions." We quote from its comments: "The crime of reconstruction produces alienation and anarchy, and there is no escape but in restoration aye, we go further, and demand a re-adjust-ment of our institutions upon renewed constitutions."

A bill providing that tne Governor of Mississippi may direct the prosecution of a person accused of crime in some other count, when from prejudice or some I other cause an impartial trial can not be had in the county in which the offense was committed, has excited the ire of the

Democratic, Jackson Clarion, which styles it a bill of abomination, and says it is such villainous contrivances as this that produces Ku

Klux organizations, and that the people will "take care of themselves by unlawft combinations against such interfer-

ence with the inalienable rights of men as is contemplated by this iniquity." Alluding to the same bill, the Vicksburg Herald*ays: "Ifthe House passe# tbte bill, if that body of Dick Turpins concurs with the Jack Sheppards in the Senate, it will produce an abundant crop of KnKliix—KuKlux without masfc«r If the carpet-bag scoundrels, white and black, who are now engagpd in plundering the people of Mississippi, imagine that there is no limit to the forbearance of our citi zens, that they have an exhausilesssstock of patience, we beg them to dismiss that idea. We tell them that our people never will submit to this last outrage." And, further: "The whole bill is a vast, monstrous, unheard of iniquity, a colossal crime, which had its birth in the brain of a devil, and was voted for and supported by fiends and cowards, whose malignity would shame the prince of evil. 9 f-T—

bill

should be passed and the Southern State* should conclude to resist its execution vi etarmis, will the Post pledge itself to help us? We think ourselves," it continues, "that RUTLER'S Federal autocrat for every county would have a rough road to travel, if he did not meet improvised Kuklux at every corner, where they were never seen before but the South lias learned one lesson from experience and that is, never to trust the North to help her in any resistance to tyranny outside of the ballot-box."

The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph cfc Messenger says it cannot approve the apparent dis position on the part of the Savannah iVeit's,the Augusta Chronicle Sentinel, and some other Georgia journals, to force an authoritative demand upon the National Democratic Convention from the State of Georgia, in the nature of an ultimatum, that it shall assume the positions of BLAIR'S Broadhead letter, as recently reaffirmed by Hon. LINTON STEPHENS And it magnanimously says that it wants to meet the Democrats of other States as equals, not as dictators, and then if the Convention, upon a fair view of the whole field, chooses to take the positions held by Mr. STEPHENS, well and good. It dis tinctly states that it has no fault to find with those positions in themselves considered.

The Lexington (Ivy.) Press says that the Southern Democrats demand, and that they havea right to demand, that they shall not be required to accept the Rconstruction acts as accomplished facts, which they are pledged never to agitate or redress. It calls upon the National Democracy to realize that the day is past when they can temporize with questions of vital importance, and insisting that there should be "no authoritative indorsement or acquiescence as regards those wrongs, the consideration of which is but postponed," it says: "If the Democratic party should succeed in carrying the elections of next year, and securing the Executive Department of the General Government, as well as lhat of the lower House of the Federal Legislature, it will then be in a position to pursuo a policy which will restore the Government to its normal condition, and re-es-tablish it as a Constitutional Union between sovereign and independent States."

FjtoM the Cincinnati Chronicle we learn hat there has been—what it is fervently to be hoped will prove to be a finality another decision in the Royse-Perry Oneida divorce case. The Chronicle thinks that which way the decision went is not a matter of much moment, so that that the particulars of the prurient story therewith connected are never exposed to public view again. It may, however, gratify somebody to know that Mrs. Koyse was awarded a divorce, the custody of the children, and three thousand dollars of alimonv.

An Interesting Speech. WASHINGTON, April 1. The ordinary dull routine of the speech making of the week was somewhat re Iieved this afternoon by the remarks of Elliott, a colored member from South Carolina, who got the floor on the pending Ku Klux bill. Elliott is a successor to Preston Brooks in that strongest of all old South Carolina's secession districts. He is the darkest of all the colored members of the House, and at the same time the most cultivated, being a graduate from an English university. He came to Congress with the reputation of being one of the most forcible and eloquent speakers in the present body. In the several impromptu speeches which he has made thus far during the present session, he has borne himself creditably, and impressed even the most prejudiced Democrats that he is a man of unquestioned power and ability. When he arose this afternoon, both Democrats and Republicans flocked around him, and the galleries presented a marked contrast to their deserted appearance of the last few days. Elliott's voice is very strong, and suggestive of large experience in outdoor speaking. His delivery is good, and his gestures well timed and graceful. His speech throughout was listened to with marked attention, there not being the slightest confusion from the exordium to the close. Of course, it was in favor of stringent legislation to suppress existing Southern outrages. The idea he kept continually putting forward was thai no loyal man need fear putting too much power in the hands of a well meaning administration. It was only the rogues that felt the halter draw who'had a bad opinion of the law, He spoke for about an hour and a half, from written notes, and was interrupted but twice, and then in connection with facts which it appeared he related from his own personal experience. His replies to these interruptions were exceedingly ready, and caused great laughter on the Republican side of the House.—Corres pondence Cincinnati Gazelle.

TIIEY are a wise set in Terre Haute. A saloon keeper presented a bill of $127 to the County Commissioners for keeping a pauper, a few days ago. Among the items were charges like these: To six stimenlent to three cocktails to seven whisky strates, &c. The bill was not allowed. The bar keeper took it to a lawyer, had it overhauled and increased to $195, and the Commissioners allowed $161 upon it. The county would be richer if the "stiinenlents" and "cocktails" had been paid for. Nilsson's visit there set them crazy, and fhey are not over it yet.—Evansiille Courier, Democratic.

The Courier should understand that the majority of our Board of Commissioners are Democrats—a fact which explains why so outrageous a bill was allowed.

JEFFERSON DAVIS

In an article declaring the Republican party a failure and a curse, the Savannah Republican asserts that the "whole course of the Republicans since they came into power in 1860, affords proof conclusive that they are unfit to govern a free people that "the the late war waged upon the Southern States was a crime against both principle and policy that "the South can not be warred upon with impunity," and that further legislation bv Congress, such as proposed, will "make twenty Ku Klux where there is now one, and but a short time will elapse before the people will be driven to civil war for the protection of their property and firesides."

in that city

than was contained in the Democratic papers published there. The Press, which is a Republican paper, describes the affair and reports DAVIS'S speech thus:

Mr. Jefferson Davis, President of a Memphis Life Insurance Company, arrived in this city on Sunday night, from Montgomery. On Monday he received many calls, and in the evening he held quite a levee in the parlor of Keipp's Hotel, which was attended by a large number of ladies and gentlemen. About 11 o'clock a brass band appeared on Ala-

bama street, in front of the hotel, accompanied by a crowd of two or three hundred people. The band discoursed "The Bonnie Blue Flag," and on the cessation of the music loud calls were made for "Davis!" "Davis 1"

In answer to the call the chief of the Confederacy appeared on the balcony and addressed the crowd for about ten minutes in a strain of impressive eloquence, which told with powerful efi'ect upon his hearers. He commenced by complimenting, in general terms, the people of Alabama. He had always loved them, and now felt that he could rest in peace with them forever. They were bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh. Alabama and his own State of Mississippi were yet one in principle, as they once had been one in territory. Their people had sent forth their sons to battle on the same fields for their right as States.

But, asked the speaker, with bitter emphasis, are they States now? Yet, proceeding in an exultant tone, he declared lhat Slate Sovereignty, although defeated in the late struggle, will ultimately triumph its day of success might not come in his time, but he would live and die in the belief that it would surely triumph. He declared that no people on earth had ever suffered as had the Southern people since the surrender of the Southern armies, and he loved them for the fortitude wiih which they had borne the oppression heaped upon them.

He had always been willing to give his life for hi.-people, and now, if any Yankee power warned his blood to atone for any action of the Southern people, they could take it. On him the Government had done its worst, and for himself he did not care, but for the sake of the people whom he loved he would forbear to express more fully the feelings of his heart. He never had asked pardon for what he had done, and he never would for he felt that he had done no wrong.

Mr. DavLs concluded amid the applause of the crowd, which had loudly cheered the salient points of his'speech. As he retired t.ie band struck up 'Dixie,' after which calls were made for General Pettus and General Morgan, but no response was accorded, and the crowd soon after separated. Mr. Davis looks to be in fine health."

TTNFHTG UWMHBmg inn.

That the Jews were tiiw i^cculiar and highly favored jwople of God, none will deny but whether that people did not fall under the displeasure of Deity in consequence of their oft-repeated and persistent disobedience, to a degree in which they have no claim to any extraordinary protection from Providence, is a question which will admit of much thought. The writer of this article, without any desire to elicit controversy, inclines to the opinion that the Jews are favored, to this day, above all other people, and whatever their punishment may have been for infractions of the Mosaic laws, it has not, and does not permanently afiect their worldly prosperity. We see a people of many millions, scattered over the face of the civilized world, in possession of, and handling a very large proportion of the capital that moves the business of the world and yet no man can say that they created any considerable portion of that capital. It is nothing unusual to see a few individuals of other nationalities, owning great wealth that thly did not create. It is not strange, for the reason that they have vast crowd* of producing citizens from which to glean their golden aggregate,

But, supposing the English, the French, or the Americans, were to take it into their heads to live without labor, and speculate off of the labor of others, is any man foolish enough to suppose that the enterprise wcild be atteuded with success? There is not one dollar of ai-aialble capital in the world not produced by labor. Now, the Jews, as a people, have more capital than any other mi r, and they do not labor. Who can point to a house, built of brick made by a Jew? Who can appease his hunger with bread, made from flour raised by a Jew? And where is the farm, cleared up and improved by a Jew?

They toil not, neither do they spin," and yet the hard-working Gentiles have not a tithe of the money possessed by this "peculiar" people. There is nothing that can be organized by human ingenuity, capable of producing similar results among any other people. Churches and secret societies have not, and can not accomplish any such results. The Society of Friends come nearest to the mark, but they are producers. Let them cease to till the soil, as the Jews have done, and in a short time they would be a community of paupers. There is no special Providence, controlling and conducting the golden current into their coffers. It is the fiat of Heaven that the Jews shall nJt labor that they shall prosper and grow rich from the industry of other nations. That man must be blind, indeed, who can not recognize the hand of Deity upholding the Jews from the hardships, the weariness, and in many instances, the degradation of toil.

The world has combined against the Jews, and put forth every possible exertion to degrade and impoverish them, and yet the loss and sorrow inflicted were but temporary. Every civilized nation, excepting America, has passed laws to degrade them and furious mobs have hunted, butchered and robbed them, even in the streets of London, and yel what did it all amount to? The Jews, in a short time had accumulated, without manual labor, more than they possessed prior to their spoliation. Jews have been, and always will be, a people with "plenty of money," surrounded by the easy circumstances that always attend those who have others in their debt. To-day, the nations that persecuted the Jews, are compelled to go to a Jew and borrow the money with which to vindicate their national honor. There is not a nation in Europe that can maintain a war of any considerable magnitude or duration, without having recourse to the Jew money-lenders. What a spectacle is presented here! A people whom the nations have combined to destroy, furnishing the means of salvation to their would-be destroyers. Is not the hand of Providence visible in this?

The writer of this article is not a Jew, nor a member of any chuich, and has no fault to find with the state of things above described, but would merely inquire whether the fact of the favor of God not being withdrawn from the Jews, even after their crucifixion of Christ, does not raise some very serious doubts as to the divine origin of the Evangelical system of religion? I believe firmly, every word of the New Testament but when I see the descendants of those who crucified the Redeemer, living at their ease, in the enjoyment of every earthly comfort, while, on the other hand, the descendants of the most zealous and devout champions of the cross, form the rank and file erf standing armies, to be shot at for a few dollars a month, and perform all the drudgery of building the cities and railroads of the world, the thought na i: ally arises—If the Jews are wrong, why are they favored of Heaven? And if the Christians are right, why is it that they are the slaves of the earth?

The extent of the favor in which the Jews were held in olden time, by the Creator,, is not fully appreciated by most people. I will g»'e

quotation, to show

how potent it was: "Ye .-hall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: Thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is within ihy gates, that he mav eat it: or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God."—Deuteronomy chap, xiv, verse

21.

A love that extends such an extraordinary privilege as this, does not easily die out* nor will it be withdrawn unless for the most flagrant and heinous sins. The Jews were so beloved that they were not suffered to lose the value of an animal that died from disease or old age. but were permitted to sell it to the aliens. Now, according to this law, were Vigo county settled by Jews, and Putnam county settled by Gentiles, it would be perfectly legal and regular for a citizen of the former county to transport diseased meat to the latter county and sell it to the Gentiles—or "aliens." This is in the Bible, and must be admitted to be true. It is also true that the Jews are wealthy without labor, and the majority of the Gentiles are poverty stricken, and suffer from want, although they toil incessantly. Do these facts prove that the Jews are wrong, or that the Christians are right?

INVESTIGATOR.

Terre Haute, Ind., April 1, 1871.

SEVERAL Eastern journals are agitating the question whether Senator Thurman was drunk at the Democratic National convention in 1868. The Ohio Statesman and the Hempstead Enquirer say he was perfectly sober on that occasion in spile of what Aleck Long, of Cincinnati, the "libeler, falsifier and utterer of villainous calumny has said on this momentous issue. The New York Sw thinks that on the whole the weight of the argument is against Aleck, and that if Thurman is the man he once was he will completely squelch his calumniators.

FBANCE. CANNONADING.

PARIS, April 3—12:15 p. si.—Cannonading is proceeding from Fort Mont Valerienat the rate of two shots per minute. There is also sharp musketry fire toward Mendon. It is reported the Nationals have suffered severely from the fire of Valerien, but nothing precise is obtainable. It is said the committee believed

tionals, who occupy Forts Vonvres, Issy and Mont Ronge in force. TRAIN STOPPED.

A valuable train was stopped lately at Clarmont and forced to return. RUMORS-

Contradictory rumors are flying and tLe gates are shut. MARCH TO VERSAILLES.

PARIS,

April 3.—One hundred thous

and Nationals, in ihree corps, with one hundred guns, marched out of Paris this morning, via Mont Ronge, Issy and Reuill, all destined to Versailles.

KIRE FROM MONT VALERIEN. Fort Mont Valerien fired all day upon Reuill, and flying batteries at Mendon cannonaded the Nationals, debouching from issy on the Versailles Road. Valerien cannonaded the rear guard of Nationals entering ihe valley between Penteaux and Buenvals. One detachment is retreating in a disorderly condition.

CONFLICTING HUMORS.

There is nothing certain respecting the force that passed Valerien, but various conflicting versions are given. One report says they are surrounded, while another declares they effected a junction and turned on Mendon, where a majority of the Versailles troops is concentrated.

AN ENGAGEMENT.

During operations on the right there was a fierce engagement between artillery at Mendon and Parisian artillery. Several members of the Commune, wearing red sashes, led battalions. It is said a superior Versailles officer has been taken prisoner.

A REPULSE.

The Moniteur says the Zouaves repulsed the Nationals in an attack on Castle Mendon, and thai the National loss was very heavy.

DISPATCH TO THE COMMUNE.

Col. Bourgaen telegraphs to theC»mmune at 11 -.15 A. M., that Bergeret and Flourens have formed a junction and will march on Versailles, and that success was certain. Another dispatch says at two o'clock in the afternoon Duval and Flourens formed a junction at Corberoie. They were cannonaded by Valerien, but the men were well sheltered. A concerted and successful movement was made by which they passed the line of fire of the Valerien, and marched on Versailles. Bergeret had two horses killed.

ISOLATED.

Communication with the outside world is cut off. INSURGENTS ROUTED.

VERSAILLES, April 4.—At noon yesterday two corps of insurgents advanced toward Versaillles, one via Mendon and Chatillon, and other via Reuil. Both were routed with heavy loss. Florens was killed. Tj^e troops whose expected defection constituted the hope of the insuigents, behaved nobly. Insurgents in Forts Vonvres and Issy fired on the troops to-day. The government troops have just attacked the insurgents, and a speedy and complete success is contemplated.

THE ASSEMBLY.

In the Assembly to day Thiers in some remarks on the state of affairs said the government would deal harshly with the ringleaders of the insurrection, but leniently with their dupes. The sentiment was received with applause. Rentes are advancing.

PARIS SURROUNDED.

VERSAILLES,

Versailles surrounds Paris, and order elsewhere in France is established. CIRCULAR.

VERSAILLES, April 4.—A circular, issued to-day by M. Picard to Prefects of departments, announces the victory of the Assemblyists, and the conflict before Paris.

REDOUBT CAPTURED.

The redoubt at Chatillon, held by insurgents, was captured this morning by the forces of the government, with 2,000 prisoners, including General Henry. General Duval was shot. No fighting has occurred to-day on any other part of the lines.

EXASPERATION.

The troops are becoming more than ever exasperated at the resistance shown by the insurgents.

PROCLAMATION.

VERSAILLES,

April 4.—Thiers has is

sued a proclamation addressed to the Prefects of de utmenls as follows: On Monday insui nt masses attacked our forces simuhaiKOiisiy at Naliterre, Rue II, Banginivel, Bazous, Chatati and Croissy. Fort Mont Valerien at day ffreak begun to cannonade the insurgents, who were ai first sheltered by the villages of Naliterre, Rue II and Banginivel. They subsequently attacked the Government forces, by whom they were repulsed. General Vinoy, with a detatchment of cavalry, was by this time in a position threatening to outflank the insurgents, and they fled in complete rout, leaving many of their dead and wounded in the hands of the Government troops. GOVERNMENT TREATMENT OF INSUR

GENTS.

Thiers says the Government will exercise clemency towards all who have been blindly misled, but will punish with severity the ringleaders. The insurrection is impotent.

APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE.

PARIS, April 4.—The communal delecation of the first arrondissement of Paris nave appealed to the people to unite and repel the common danger.

POSITIONS MAINTAINED.

Cre Du Peuple announces that the Nationals have maintained the positions which they conquered yesterday at Le Bas, Mendon, Bougiral and before Fort D'Issy.

CLAIM A VICTORT.

The Communists claim to have won a victory yesterday.

ENGLAND.

BATTLE.

LONDON.

April 4.—The Times' special

Bays a great battle was commenced at 6 o'clock this morning by the Nationals nnder command of Bergeret, who at 11 o'clock asked for reinforcements from Paris. There was much animation in the bivouacs of the Nationals on Sunday night, the men singing the Marseillaise and chant. The Times' correspondent believes the battle, which was on a large scale, has proved disastrous to the Communists The unexpected cannonade of Valerien threw the Nationals into confusion, and it is asserted that the following i9 the situation: Bergeret with 15,000 was completely cut off. Then Flourens was purposely permitted to effect a junction with him, and Flouren* and Bergeret with 35,000 men must surrender or fight at the greatest disadvantage. The Times correspondent savs there is an improbable version of the affair, to the effect that Flourens has reached Versailles, and is believed to have been betrayed. The eens dearmee treat all prisoners unmercifully. The Daily News' dispatches confirm the route of the insurgents, who Droved great blustering cowards, and who expected Valerien would fraternize with them. The Pontificial Zouaves shot all prisoners instantly.

RELIEF FOR FRANCE.

The United States steamer Worcester, from Boston, with a cargo of prrvm ns for relief of suffering people in ra .ee, has arrived at Plymouth, and will p.oeeed at once to a French port

we remind

those who desire to increase their income and obtain a more permanent investment, while still having a perfectly .reliable security, that:

United States 5-20's at their average premium yield tho present purchaser less than 534 percent, gold interest. Should they be redeemed in five years, and specie payment be resumed, they would roally pay only 4% percent., or is in three years, only 3% per cent-, as the present premium would meanwhile be sunk.

Northern Pacific 7-30's selling at par in currency yield the investor 7 3-10 por cent, gold interest absolutely for thirty years, free fiom United State* tax- 31,000 curroncy invested now in Untted States 5-20's will yield per year in gold, say $H2 00. 81,0'0 currency invested now in Northern Pacific 7-30's will yield per year in gold. S80 JO. Ilere is a difference in annual income of nearly onr-third, besides a difference of 7 to 10 per cent, in principal, when both classes of bonds are redeemed.
