Show Kochefort nuU CJrouj.scit. The escape of these professional patriots of i'rauce from the bland ol Saw CaleJouia 7- -0 uiilca E. 2s. K. of Australia ta which they viv.ro expatriated for nets committed under the Commune, while it is cf no importance in itself, carries with it uilicient interest, perhaps, to iuducu a brief notice cf the inui. a class Ilynri llochcfort belongs-tof writers, who, for the last twenty-liv- e years, Lave passed their time hi pulliug down governments, growling through the bars of a prison, ui;ii righting rival editors under the pleasant shades of the Uois do Uoulogue. Kochefort is the viscount de Luoay, of an aristocratic family by birth, but blood led Republicans of the Faubourg St. Autoine btripe by choice. For years he was a member of the editorial corps of Figaro. Then he edited La Luutcrnc, avowedly established to destroy the empire, and then he founded the paper known a Mot d'Ordre. For the publication of articles in the Becoud of these, ho twice tm tiered imprisonment. From one of these incarcerations between the iirst and second plebiscites, he was Jiberaled by election to the eli jiii ber of deputies. t lie Jought a duel with Faul do Cusagnacf editor ol Da Fays, in which he was wounded, and when Victor .Ntiir, attended by liustave Flourens, visited J'rinee Nupoleou, to cad him to account for what he had wiittenj or caused t be written, aud the prince bhot .Noir down dead, Kocheiort was in his glory. To ttub men with the pen or bword was the peculiar privilege of the scarlet-reds- , and was a rich for cafes the of tto boulevards joke and the clubs, but to bo Blabbed to death themselves, and by an imperialist, was (juite another thing. One huudred thousand men met in the to talk about it, and ('hamps llobheiort addressed them. It is claimed by his friends that he held the lato of l'uris iu his hands that day, aud that a word from him would have built the barricades and flooded the streets of l'aris with blood. Others tay, that he was wise not to utter it, because of glim old Cauro-be- rt held the fuse, and the example of the Little Corsica n was not wanting, when he planted his eanuon in frout of the assembly and ploughed through the sins culottes with grape that was exceedingly sour, bouio are found to say ' that Uochcl'ort's hatred of imperialism was to be fouud in the fact, that Louis refused to confer upon him the cross of the Legion of Honor; but that can scarcely bo .Becredited iu one ho pronounced. Franco-Germawar he fled fore tho to the neutrul ground of Uiusscb, beyond tho reach of the "nephew ot his unclo,"jirom whence he cotitiuued to publish La Lanterue, in defiance, and to pour literary hot shot into the Tuilerics "from a Bulb distance. After the gruesome days of Sedan, Kochctort returned to Fans aud He published tho Mot d'Ordre. took no part in tho fighting, but he advocated the order for burning the residence of M. Thiers in the Flaee St. Uoorge." Iu tho last days of the Commune, when McMahuu's guus were thundering against the gales ui Paris, and his bhells were falling uu- couuortably euough among the nsi deuces fringing the Champ Elysoes, lvochelort decided discretion, the better part of valor, and ho lied, lie had uo idea of being cooped up with tho desperate diabolism of the s M'liom ho had assisted to madden with his "Order of the lay," and ho ran away. Ho has beeu charged with a too delicate care ol his person for this, but he did nut go far. A gendarme halted him aud he gave the nauiti of viscount do Lucay, but the man recognized hint aud him to Faiis, and again he became intimate with the iuside of a prison, but this time under more erious' aspects. He was sentenced to expatriation for life,but M.Thiers, the burning of whose house he so earnestly advocated, magnanimously endetvored to procure a commutation of his sehteuee. So Long as 31. Thiera wua president, this intercession was successful, but when Con. McMahon succeeded him, the sou tenco wai enforced, and Henri Roche-for- t, in precarious health, was shipped off to New Caledonia, in the Facific ocean, along with the rest. Ely-sue- s n petro-Icuse- Pascal Orou.ssst .has uot ben so prominent in h'n turbulent spirit as Kochefort, and he is a far better man. Ho is about forty tivu years of age, and a native of the south of France, where, in the vicinity of Marseilles, t he published a Republican paper. flashed into political prominence by fighting a duel with his brother-in-lawho was the editor of au imperialist journal in the same towri,gr near it. At the outbreak of the Commune, Grouaset became associated wiih the leaders of the party and received the appointment of Minister of Foreign Affairs. lie endeavored to restrain the blind fury of the Communists, and had more than one interview with our 31 inister, Wash burue, in relation to the late of the lie jiiood old Archbishop Darboys. in influence his to exert prombed old life of the the ecclesiastic, saving and probably did what he could, for Mr. Witshburiie expressed confidence in him. but the fury of the F l is populace was so great against all that illustrated law and order and religion, that nofliiug but tire and blood could satiafy the savage madness of the hour. When tho Commune fell, (Jrousset fell, but so different had been his official course, to many who had exere'-sepower in that r rid' but extraordinary second reign of teiror, that sympathy went with him to his He had preserved order prison. where it was possible; he had protected the public funds so far as he could, and he had enjoyed the confidence, and to a great degree the respect, of all shades of opinions, and of all conditions of men in his own country. All conceded that in such a chaos it was most fortunate to have n found so conservative a man in of such psoiuinence. The rabble of Paris were the masters of the situation, as they were in 1703, and the bonnet wye of liberty was to them simply the emblem of rapine at d revenge upon their betters. Tho plain of Sartory was soaked with the life blood of the vilest of the leaders aud the French island in tho Pacific garnered the rest. This escapade of (Jrousset and Kochefort, with two others whose names are misspelled Gaude and Bouilherre, in an open boa three days at sea, and then picked up by an Australian vessel, is a dashing affair, but has a slight look of connivance about ou tho part of tho French authoriticsi. nithout to be or reason sorry glad having about these chronic agitator obtaining their liberty, wo look with dread on the announcement that Kochefort is eominr to the United States to lecture. Wejhave already had a 'aste of communism in New York this past winter, and we don't like it. Perhaps the best thing to do with the luminary of the lanthom, is either to buy him off or muzzle him. directly he lauds. Wc are already in the ripe enjoyment of several isms of an ultra type, and we think we can get along comfortably without adding French communism to the list of luxuries. He-firs- J. WK.

About three miuuUs walk, in an eagerly direction from 3iain street, Gold Hill, there is to be seen a most woudei ful phenomenon. The ground, e ther f rom an earthquake or some other cause, has split open for at 1 ast a qua;tT of a mile. The crevice thus cieat.nl, starting at Fert the railroad Homestead, cvos-e- s thence aud track, pursues a uearly direction down the west southerly side of the canyon embraced between Fort Homestead and tho hill beyond. It then crosses the canyon and for a considerable distauco up the west side of tho hill last named. Tho crevice varies in width from one to twouty inches, and in places appears to be butt uule B. Tho crevice or chasm throughout its entire extent is as straight us au arrow, and is of rccutit origiu. That it is something more than a landslide is evident from the fact that it crosses the canyon in a direction nearly at right angles ta tho same, The ground upon which the town of Gold Hill is built seems to posses the element of instability, and in many, eases tho water pipes have pulled apart and boiler beds have got out of position lhe owing to this circumstance, question ''Whither are we drifting!'" is a pertinent one.
