AFFAIRS IN FRANCE.

77S NEW ARCUBISHOP OF PARIS.

The [ emch government, in the exercise of the rig: cvnfirmed to it by the Pope in the, €urcordut, bas named to the vacant Aprch- Sisbups of Paris the most eminent |iving mem- ber of the Bpiseopacy of France.

Feliz-Antoine-Pinlippe Duapenloup was boru tm 1802, at S:. Felix, ‘iD Savoy. lo Iv28, alter going through his clerical and theoloyi- cal etudies at St. Sulpice, he was ordained a priest, a d two years afterwards, in 1*27, he was appointed confessor to the Prince, then known asthe boy Duke, of Burdeaux, who now as Count of Chambord, at the age of 51, seems suddenly to have become the most prominent candidate for the throne of Franee, te which hie way has been opene:! by the ar ullery of MeMabor. It was his curtous fate

im 1888 to receive bis last spiriiual revelations,

aud @utpogrings of that untrocked bishop, Prince leyzand, who sent for bim when on | his deathbed. During the last year of the’

monarchy of Jaly, M. Dupantoup had not o little treuble, both with his superior, Arch- bishop Caffre, of Paris, the victim of the bar- ricades of June,and with the Government. In 1849 after the revolution of Febroury bad euc- ceeded in planting the secoud empire, he was made Bishop of Orleans, aud with his appoint- ment began h's wonderful career of eloquence, ot poleunes, of literature, and of political ac- tivity. No prelate in France has done more than he for long years to contribute to the support of the Papacy. ree at Rome, in 1870, more resolutely and vigorously op

H{S BRAIN--HiS GRAVE OPENED THREE TIMES.

«From the Binghawpton Republican.)

Rulloffson’s brain which was carefully ex- amioed this morning. weighed 59 our ces, be- ing 94 or 10 ounces heaver than the average weight. The heaviest brain ever weighed was that of Couvier, the French naturalist, which is given by some authori.ies, at 65 ounces, and by some at 64 ounces. The brain of Daniel Webster (partly estimated on account of a portion being deemaped by disease) weighed 64 ounces, The lower (brute) portion of Rulloffson’s brain and the mechauical were un- ‘usually large. The upper portion of the brain | which directs the higher moral and religious sentiments, was very deficient. Inthe form- ation of the brain, Rulloffson was a ferocious anima), and, so far as disposition could re- lieve him from responsibility, he was not strict'y responsible for hin acts. The mea surement of Rull. ffson’s head around at the eyebrows (supraorbital) was 24) inches. The skull was probably the thickest ever known. In no place was it less than three-eights of an inch in thickness, and in most places it was half an inch thick, The usual thickness of a ‘man 6 skull is less than one-fourth of «® inch. | Rulloffson’s head was opencd in the usual way, | by parting the scalp over the top of the bead, | from one eur to the other, and sawi: g on the top.

THE FASHIONS.

(Fiom the Young Lady's Journal.)

There is so much variety in the toilettes one sees this summer, that their elegance more than ever depends on personal taste, Tunics are still worn, but not so frequently | looped up, and very often they are simula- ted by trimmings.

The new shaw! mantle falls in a large pointed lappet over either arm; in the mid- dle of the back it is draped into a full dou- | ble pleat, and is short im front. A llama or cashmere staw!l can be arranged in this way, but the mantle is also made of black silk. and a handsome fringe, and fo'ds of silk laid the cross way above it An orna- ment of silk passementerie is placed just at the top of the drapery at the back.

A handsome model for a rich silk ms ntle is the Marie Therese. It is half fitting und forms a very deep rounded basque, in the redingote shape at the back. This basque is arranged intotwo double pleats, fastened down with lurge buttons; it is trimmed round with a deep flounce of black lace. ‘The front part cf the mantle is shaped like an open, rounded eff jacket, | trimmed with narrower lace. There is an junder part which comes down like a long waistcout, and is buttoned all the way down This part 1s plain; it 1s sometiny s made of coloured silk but in that case should match the dress worn with the mant’e. The sleeves are rather tight at the top. but gradually expand from the elbow. when they are caught up with buttons; they are edged with lace.

Charlottetown, June 12, 1571

As wil! appear from our present issue, the Railway Commissioners have been ap- pointed. Specu'ation was, for a consider able time rife as to the persons likely to be named, and we have no doubt that many of our readers will be surprised at the choice, both of some of the Commissioners and Ap- praisers. That the selection of these gentiemen will give universal satisfaction no reasonable man will expect; but we are inclined to the belief that the appointments will, on the whole, receive the approval of the country at large. We should have liked to see the Hon Mr. Howlin on the Commission. He was an enthusiastic ad | vocate of the Railway scheme, and next to the Premier, he contributed more than any | other member of the Legis'ature, to its suc- | cessful accomplishment, We doubt, how- ever, that any other man on the Island is more competent to perfoim the duties of | the office than Mr. Duncan By his good business talents, and shrewd common sense, he has amassed a considerable fortune, and we have no doubt that, in the discharge of his public duties, he will act with the same integrity and ability as he «lozs in his | private business. We have not yet heard | positively who isto be hisopponent. Seve-| ral gentlemen have been named, but most | of them seem afraid to face the contest. A very foolish idea has gone abroad. that if Mr’ Duncan 1s defeated, the Railway measure will certainly perish. This is a great mis- take and the sooner the electors of Belfast perceive it the better. Now that the Bill |

jacket part and sleeves in the darkest sh:de, waistcoat in the next, pipings and buttons in the lighter shade

A simpler style of silk mantle is hbalf- fitting cutoutin four basques two behind, and one on either side. ‘These basques are cut square, but tapering towards the waist ; they are trimmed with a frizzled moss fringe, headed with two narrow roulcaux and a small quilling to head the trimming. This trimming minus the fringe, goes up the fronts and round the neck, The sleeves are very wide, cut square, aud trimmed to correspond,

For a cashmere jacket a pretty pattern is tight-fitting. All the fulness of the round ed-off basque is thrown bacx, forming two full pleats at the back fastened down with buttons at the waist The model we notic ed was of felt gray cashmere, It was trimmed with a broad cross strip of gray silk reps and two narrow strips of the jsame. This trimming was arranged upon the front part so as to stimulate an opening ea chule, with the addition of a scalloped- out border of cashmere, bound with silk reps The jacket was fasteued up to the throat with xrow of buttons. Coat sleeves. with deep cuffs, and a square pocket upon each of the large double pleats at the back Jhis jacket also looks well in black silk.

Most costumes are ,still made with the mantle or jacket of Uie same material as the dress. ‘She shawl-mantle mentioned above can be made in any material. Young ladies, however, prefer the short jacket, with pretty cut-out basques and wide sleeves. Sashes are quite gone out of fashion; even bows are ignored in the new French modeis. Skirts are no longer loop ed upa la Watteau. The tunic is made longer, and trimmed with a flounce cr fringe wh ch is carried up to tLe waist. When no tunic is won, the basque of the jacket bodice is made long so as to cover part of the skirt.

Flounces of every kind are worn—deep or narrow, pleated or »athered. with head- ings or without according to taste.

Simi arity of color is the great point to be attended to in modern toilettes. We cannot insist too strongly upon this. <A variety of materials is admitted. but no va- riety of color— at least none beyond that oi different shades of one color

Dresses of striped silk are frequently trimmed with one or two more flounces of

lain silk of the darker shade of the stripe.

Very iresh and bright are the new ‘offela: @’lialie; striped lilac. green, light brown or blue and white made up in this way with flounces of plain silk to match the stripe One flounce is put on just half an inch above the edge of the skirt; another so as to timulate a double skirt or tunic ‘lhe bodice is made jacket-fashion and trimmed en chale in front, with a quilling to match the fluunces; a similar trimming goes round the open sieeve. These taife tas, or glace siks. are mexpensive, and wear infinitely better than the fancy ma- terials, which are so much less effective. and yet not remarkably ec! eaper.

We do not see any thing very new in si ks this summer; but we get very good ele- gant plain or striped silks at much lower prices than were ever known before; so that the silk costume is becoming quite a chose de riguer ina lady’s wardrobe. In fact, one now gets a complete silk costume for the price one gave for a silk mantle alone a short time ago.

We must also mention that plain silks are very pretty trimmed with striped flounces orcrossways bands with a double- tinted fringe. ‘lrimmings of gauze o grenadine are also employed for silk dress- es, and silk trimmings for mohair or other fancy materials; while dull silk reps is often used with much effect upon glace silk.

‘The same rules apply for the making up and trimming of the washing materials - French muslin and cambric, pique and toiled Alace. In ell these a mixture oi plain and striped materials, and of various shades of colour, and also very tastefu! and eflective.

The Record of a Triumph, CONSOLATION FOR THE SUFFERING

There is no little consolation in the thought that, however the iu-poster way flourish for the seasun, Ge cannot long cuntisue to delude mane kind, How many men contrive to acquire a brief, and flashy reputation, avd then sink into disre- pute and oblivion! This is especially true of the pretenders to wedical skill, who in an age when diseases abound, seek to inveigle theuwselves in- tw ibe confidence of the public, and to impore| upou it wiih their noxiwus nostrume, We core! fess that years age, when we firet heard of the universal ceebrity of PRores:or HoLlLoway,

has been passed and that the work will as

suredly be carried on without delay, it be- | ‘comes a matter of importance that the | | persons having control of it should be men | |of ability and integrity, who will see that | it will be conducted as economically as | possible. From what we know of Mr. Dunean, we do not believe that he would

be a party to jobbery or corruptiov. If we

did we would oppose his re-election to the

utmost of our power; but we think the | people of Pelfast, who wil! have to con-

tribute a considerable share of the cost of | the undertaking will see that it is their in-

terest to have as their representative, 2 | gentleman who, by holding a seat in the | the Government, and the Chairmanship of the Railway Board, will insure the chear | performance of the work, :nd at the same) time obtain corresponding benctits for his own district. THE RAILWAY APPOINTMENTS. |

DURING a special meeting of the Execue! tave Council held on Monday and Tuesday | last, the Railway Commissioners and Ap- | praisers were appointed. The result shows | that the Government know how to keep their own secrets, for the gentlemen who have received the offices are not those which had been given by some of the papers The Government have also shown that t' ey are not afraid of throwing them selves upon the suffrages of the people. No ‘airer test of public opinion could be had, than is offered in Be'fast, Souris and Tignish. The electiors will come off early in July, and it will be a pohtical campaign on quite a respectable scale. Mr. Duncan, Mr. Perry, and Mr. McEachen, we hear, will be vigorously opposed. It should be a fair stand-up fight, of Railroad, or no- Railroad, especial y if the opposition are not prepsred with a platform to go before the country. Of course the ExamIner, as has been its wont will keep the peopl- fully posted on the political events of the day. The following are the appointments:

A ROGUES’ CALE) DER, The Argus regrets that the City Council

we distrusted ins lofty claims, and arrogated to (ourselves a superiority of discernment which | weuld pot allow sum to entrap our judguent. | | Most beartily do we beg bis pardon ter the upe! jjost impntatior, A eatetci study of his system | | convinced us that we were indeed mistaken, and | | that the world, to do him justice, suould imme. | | diately. as it undoubiediy will herestier, rank him foremert amongst ita benefactors, He has

, aud gragkid jokes apd laughed, At last, j suived the mystery of human djsensex, and proved | crime, guard the rights of individuals. and

does not publish the erimins! proecedings of its court. He argues that the so doing acts ‘*as a who'esome check \ipon all kinds of lawlessness; and suggests * that it is the duty of the City Council to publish weekly a record of its arrests, charges, and fines. Such.a course would tend to lessen

render property secure, There is no chase! tisement so salutary as a fearless and open | exposure. The unpleasantness of appear- ing in the records of the Police Court would compel many an old offender to be more guarded in his conduct. The papers 'would be glad to publish such a ree rd

hope the city futhers will see the necessity of adopting our suggestion, and of acting rigidly up to it. If the corporation is to be maintained at all, let it be maintained in its integrity, so that it may serve the end ‘for which it was instituted. In civic mat. ‘ters, we require reform and perhaps the reform needed is that the Council render itself a ** terror to evil doers.”

All this looks very we'l at first sight, but our contemporary on Queen's Square, seems to forget that the good effects of the publicity of crime has been gravely dispu- ted; and in fact the supposition is very pre valent, that it does more evil than other- wise. The criminal brought before the Mayor's Court, or the Sup®eme Court, if his crime were blazoned by the press, would be a hero fcr the hour, would in many cases glory in his shame, and we uld have ‘hundreds of readers inspired with a desire to imitate him. The papers might be /more spicy or piquant, but it is tetter that they should be dull than impure. The very arguments used by the 4rgus are the same as are given #s ap excuse for the publication of the vile American papers which are ruining the youth of America, by their prurient accounts of the criminal proceedings of the Police Courts of the United States.

If the suggestion of the Argus were adopted there would be an amount of in justice perpetrated, which would more than counter-balance the good that might be accomplished. Some poor, honest fel-| low, with arespectible family, would come from the country, and wou d have the mis- fortune to imbibe of the “ liquid fire” too freely. He would be grabbed by the Po- lice, fined or imprisoned, and his name paraded through the length and breadth of the land. Would that not be too great a punishment for him? and would it not be unjust to his daughters or family; who would have to hang their heads in shame, for that which they were not responsible. The poorez, unthinking but least guiltless classes, would be held up to public scorn whilst the wealthy criminals The

and derision would go ‘nnwhipt of justice.’’

| Argus is right in calling attention to the |

amount of drunkenness that exists, and the embryo rufiianism that eccas onally ex- hibits itself. But we fear the remedy is not in the way suggested. The press would be better employed in publishing all
