THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH -PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1870. w n w - York i am s . From Our Chan CorrrporuU-nU New York, Sept. 13, 1ST0. The Amerlrno Inntltate Fair. The American Institute Fair is now in pro gress In the building usually known as the Bkatinjj Rink, on Third avenue, between Sixty third and Sixty-fourth streets. It Is pretty well attended, and the gereral appearance is as pic turesque as it usually is, but not more so than Is nana!. The Rink is so vast in extent that the forming of a leafy avenue by the placing of two rows of trees down the centre would be one of the most beneficent innovations that could be made in its general appearance. In spite of the vast number of things with Which the building is crowded, the general aspect Is somewhat barren because of there being nothlug prominent, at equal lnter Tals, calculated to break tho monotony and to give the eye something to repose upon and find relief in. Among the new articles exhibited are a splendid collection of carriage afghans, a patent metallic stay-strap, a life-preserving Bkirt made of cork, and some anti-brsakable corset steels, some wash-cloths and bathing towels made of sponge, some interesting "stock ing supporters" (whether these are perfectly identical with garters I will not nndertake to decide), a splendid assortment of pipes, among which is one worth $2000, and of ivory billiard balls, a curious burglar-proof lock-runner, some patent perforated buckskin undergarments, and a patent helmet, the aim of which is to enable the hinder head to be bathed without wetting the face or neck. These are a few of the arti cles exhibited, but they are quite enough for mention at present. Juilxe Hertford. Judge Bedford, or "Gunny" Bedford ns he is called by his intimate friends, the official digni tary who, by his severe but just sentences, has been striking such terror into the hearts of ' criminals, is not at all a formidable man to look at. He is a little below the medium height, or at least is not one whit beyond it, is spare in form, unpretentious and unimpressive in ap pearance, and extremely youthful-looking con sidering the nature and responsibility of the position that be holds. He lives at the late re sidence of his father, who recently died. That residence is situated on the west side of Fifth avenue, a few doors south of Thirteenth street. It is not at all a fashionable quarter of that cele brated thoroughfare. A few of tho "old fami lies" live near, but the boarding-house element predominates. On the southwest corner of Thirteenth street acd Fifth avenue is a large boarding-house, and whenever the Judge comes withiu a reasonable distance of that boarding-house there is a uni versal rush to its windows on the part of the feminine occupants. The attraction consists in the anxiety to see how a roan looks who every term disposes of several hundreds of years of human life whether the responsibility so weighs upon him as to take the elasticity out of his step and the bloom from his cheek. When the curio&ity is gratified, disappointment 6ets in, for the observers see only a slim, ordinary looking man, plainly but neatly dressed, and with nothing about his personal appearance to indicate that he is not simply a book-keeper who spends his salary on his dress. The Census Again. A disposition is growing to believe that tho public has been swindled in the matter of the census. So much has this belief gained ground that Mayor Hall has actually issued a proclama tion recommending that under corporate autho rity immediate arrangement be made for taking a census through the. police department of a few districts, and in various parts of the city, so as to furnish more reliable tests, and should the comparison between tho corporate and Federal census show great discrepancies in these dis tricts, that the work be then continued through the entire city. According to the census returns just made our population has not increased during the last ten years a proposition which Is absolutely incredible, when we remember how our limits have extended themselves and what a wealth of inhabitants is exhibited in our su burbs. !lr. Nrott-Nlilrfona-.lIlaMl Glyn. Mrs. Scott-Siddons is endeavoring to do jus tice to the character of "Queen Elizabeth" as sketched by Mr. Tom Taylor in his new tragedy entitled 'Twist Are and Crown. My opinion abfnit tt is) pretentious actress may be very briefly expressed. There are about her four things on which she bases her success: First, she is a very beautiful woman; second, 6he is a magnificent "dresser;" third, she is a ladylike actress; fourth, the affix which, for profes sional purposes, she puts to her married name I' identical with that great English actress Sarah Siddons, from whom she is as sumed to claim descent. When you have ad mitted these few facts in regard to Mrs. Scott SiddonB, you have admitted everything that can with justice be claimed as an explanation of her popularity, ner capability does not begin to equal that which Is required by the charac ters she has the temerity to assume. I could mention; without stopping to think, half a dozen stock actresses in this city who are in calculably better fitted for starring than Mrs. Sco t-Siddons is. Still, she draws good audi ences at Wood's Museum, and at most other places where she appears, and I presume makes 41000 per week. Mies Glyn, the celebrated English tragedienne, whose great part of "Cleopatra" in Shake speare's Antony and Cleopattyi is said to be a wort of genius, is now in this city, staying at the Westminster Hotel. For Nilsson rooms have been taken at the Clarendon, the "nobby" hotel of New York. Single tickets for her concerts will probably sell at prices ranging between three and five dollars. Ali Baba. Oar Public HchooU. Board of School Control. The first meeting of he Board of School Control since the summer vacation was held yesterday afternoon, President M. Hail Stanton in the cnair.

FRANCE OFFEHS TEACE PROPOSITIONS PRUSSIA TO BE REIMBURSED, AND THE EORTRESSES OF LORRAINE AND ALSACE TO EE DESTROYED NO TERRITORY TO BE SURRENDERED rRUSSIA NOT LIKELY TO ACCEPT REOONNOITRINO AND SKIRMISHING. I.onikin, Sept. 13 . Communication between lirusFtls and Paris is still maintained by way of Douay and Ojuiebcron. Tho Prussians appeared at Provens, in tho Department of the Seine and Maine, on Monday, the 12th, at noon, and also at '1 racy and Carlciont, in the Department of tlia Oite. The chances of a successful defence of Paris are thought to increase hourly. The Indrpewlance Jit hic says the policy of the American government occ&slcns no surprise, considering tho intimacy of Bancrolt and liismarck. It is denied, however, at Birlln that Bancroft has made any representa tions in favor of mediation. A correspondent writes from Hamburc. Septem ber 11, tfat there are many indications that the French will shortly raise the blockade of both the Raltic and North Seas. When Fourichou hoard that the Republic had been proclaimed, and him self appointed Naval Ninister, he. assembled the ollicers of the squadron on the flagship, and con sulted inem us to me expeuiencyoi recognizing the Republic. Nearly all were willing, and Fourichou started for Cherbourg. The greater portion of the Baltic neet is asecniuiea in Kioao tiny, and the remainder is anchored off Moan Island, both in Darish waters, notwithstanding the prohibition of the Danish King. The heaviest ships will soon be oraereu to return to ! ranee. The blockade is continually evaded, as the shins are unlit tor such service. Yesterday the Labeck Chamber of Commerce telegraphed to tho Gorman consul at Copenhagen, asking whether the French nect was stui in tne name, as it nau not been seen for motethan a week. Notwithstanding tho reported return of the French fleet, preparations for defence are unreiaxea, ana news to-day trom Alsen Sound warns vessels against entering tho roadstead, all communication having just been closed by a triple row of torpedoes. Hamburg has been notitled to receive 1200 French prisoners, who will be placed on the American steamers in the harbor. London. Sept. 13 Special to the New York Herald. Thiers arrived in England to-day. He looks careworn and ill, and shows a disinclination to conversation. A few words were interchanged witn oiu acquaintances at uover, wuo inquired whether be came as an accredited envoy of the French Republic? He intimated that he knew of no Republic, but only a government for tha de fence of Paris. There is good authority tor believing that doflnite propositions for peace will be offered on behalf of the provisional government ot I'aris, ana mat M. Thiers Is authorized to lay them before the British government, whose intervention is solicited. The terms are as follows: Payment to Prussia of her war expenses; destruction of all the forts In Alsace and Lorraine; the temporary oo :upatlon of Metz and Strasburg by German troops until the election of an authorized government for France and the ratification or the treaty by the proper authorities. Lion don, sept, u. I special to the New York Tribune. A correspondent at Berlin telegraphs on Sept. 13, by authority, that the report that Mr. Bancroft nas made representations to the govern ment at Washington on the subject of mediation is utterly unfounded. The United States have not oflereu their good ornces,Dut win act if the bellig erents request them to do so. London, Sept. 13. Special to the New York Herald. 1 A despatch from Beauvais savs that within the past week advances have been made toward the King of Prussia concerning overtures of peace. Official Intimation has been given that the King cannot have means of knowing the au thority of the persons making the propositions, and tuat tne time nas not arrived to receive tnem, and it will be time when the Prussian army has arrived before Parts. The King is still anxious for such a peace as will give safety in the future and will make a formal demand on Paris and be ready to receive the propositions of the authorities. London, Sept. 13. Special to the New (York Tribune. M. Thiers' interview with Earl Gran, ville is not believed to have altered the previously known purpose of the English government respect ing intervention. M. Thiers has authority to pre sent certain distinct and novel proposals represent ing the utmost limit of concessions which the French government are now ready to make for peace, lie will find England perfectly ready to communicate these offers to Prussia, but not ready to urge them upon ber acceptance nor to assume any kind of responsibility In presenting them for consideration. J have authority for saying that there is no truth whatever In the statement that England has for warded a note to the Prussian government de manding an armistice in the name of the neutral Powers. What has happened Is this: The French government addressed an Informal communication to England, expressing a desire that the latter would convey to Prussia the readiness of France to accept an armistice, and her sincere desire for peace on a practicable and durable basis. France wishes that such communication should be made through some neutral and friendly Power, rather than directly from her own Foreign Office to the Prussian camp. Earl Granville replied that he would gladly be the means of communication between the two bel ligerent Powers, and that the good offices of Eng land, so far as they could avail, were at the service of either Power. It is understood that he was not asked to address to Prussia any representation or request of any kind as coming from England. It had, therefore, not been necessary to reject any such application, but the Foreign Office has neces sarily considered the possibility of such a request being made; and, while it does not desire to make any arrangement in advance, has no reason for concealing its views, which are, in fact, believed to be well understood by both belligerents. Their views are not favorable to intervention. The effort which England wade to avert the outbreak of hos tilities having been rejected by France, Earl Granville does not think the circumstances now warrant interference to save France from the con sequences of her own deliberate act. A Tribune correspondent at Berlin telegraphs on September 12: Whatever instructions Mr. Ban croft has received, if any, action has been left to his discretion. He has not tendered the good offices of the United States for peace mediation, and does not intend to. Such action yet is known would be useless. It is understood that the United States government will not give psremptory In structions. The Prussian government has addressed a letter to Mr.Washburne recognising in the fullest terms and thanking him lor his ettorU to protect the Germans in France. The report that Bazaine attempted to break through the Prussian lines at Pout-a-Mousson, In flicting heavy losses, is untrue. The troops here to-day, passed in grand review before General Trochu. The bridge at Creil was blown up yesterday, and the destruction of all other bridges will follow. A party of uhlans Is at Nogent-sur-Marne, and threaten to bombard the town should the bruize there be blown up. Eight thousand Prus sians are at Chalons, while their currassiers are at Chaunv waiting the arrival of tne army to attack Soissons. Several thousand Bavarians are near Yancouleurii. The prefect of Laon has been made a prisoner, and will be taken to Moltke for examination In re gard to the cause of the catastrophe at Laon. The French general who commanded at Laon is wound' . il and under guard at an hosottal. London, Sept., 13 Special to the New York World. 1 The interview between M. Thiers and Earl Granville concluded by an expression from tha former that he saw nothing to be looked for from England, and the negotiations undertaken by the Continental Powers with the hope of her co operation must probably be suffered to tall through. An Impromptu meeting was held in Trafalgar square, at which the government was denounced i- .. I 1 - : uuriiuMIuijr 1 VI urn www v Democratic meetings are called at Hyde Park on Rnnday next, and others are announced at Man chester. Birmingham, Preston and Edinburgh, in sympathy with France. There Is a great Influx of gold to the Bank of England, bat the stock market is weak and demoralized. It Is believed to-night that all hopes of peace must be abandoned, and that no treaty can be signed unless in Paris or on the banks of the Rhine. Paris, Sept. 13 A large steamer 1ms left Mar seilles for Civita Vecchla, to bring bank the Pon tifical Zouaves and other French soldiers in the Papal service. A position has Just been discovered at Sevres, southwest of the city, commanding a portion of Paris, and ft is now being rapidly fortified. The Count de Chambord exhorts his adherents to resist Invasion, as the duty of Frenchmen. Nansoutl's cavalry escaped miraculously from Sedan, and have arrived here. Portugal has recognized the French Republic. The Americana residing in the suburbs of Paris have been advised to remain in their houses and raise their national flag for protection. Russia is more decided than ever In opposing the dismemberment of France, and will propose a con gress to settlo the terms of peace. , The ramparts are divided Into nine sections, each under a separate commander. The guns there and In the forts are manned by sailors from Cherbourg and Toulon. The National Guards are camped o:i the glacis of the forts, and the torts are garrisoned by the National and Garde Mobile, who are under stringent military discipline. The line troops are stationed between the exterior forte and the ram parts, supported by volunteers and provincial sal diers. There Is little confidence among officer that the city can resist, and the government is more anxious for peace. A correspondent before Stt;abnrg writes on Sep tember 9: "In tho sorties on Thursday and Friday, tho French report the German loss to be from 8iXK) to 10, C00 men. Tho actual loss was under 50, and the total loss during the last fortnight will not ex ceed 150. The efforts to divert the river 111, which fills the moat, have resulted in complete succjhs. New mortars have been placed in position, throw ing 200-pound shells. The fire on the face of tho citadel is exceedingly effective. A breach has al ready been made in tho walls, and an assault will be made a week benco. A capitulation is expected before the first attempt. Paris, Sept. 13 Special to tho New York Times. The idea has been started in Berlin of converting Alsace and Lorraine Into an indepen dent Republic, and it is regarded with favor in Lon don. It is looked on as a condition to which both belligerents can agree. A letter from Dr. Marion Sims, who is doing hospital servlco in the French army, states that the American ambulances have been more useful than others, but adds: "We want everything, and have sent to England for necessa ries. What a pity our splendid stock is locked up in the Rue de la Paix." Parts, Sept. 13. Special to tho Now York Herald. A correspondent of the Herald had an interview with Victor Hugo, at which the latter said he had determined to address a special appaal to the American people "Since you last saw me," he said, "the snows of many years have whitened my head, but years of exile have not deadened my heart. Desolation Alls France to-day. Tha sight of the misfortunes which have befallen this un happy land are too poignant to express in words. This is the work of a man who is now expiating his crimes. But why should tho conqueror not be satiated with the blood of so many victims already sacrificed by his unholy ambition? Why should the King of Prussia, who declared that he warred not upon tho pooplo of France, not be content, now that his antagonist has been stricken and has disappeared from the scene of strife? The fall of Bonaparte allows me to return to my home, after an exile of nineteen years. Why are we to be slaughtered? Is it right that wo should be slaugh tered on our hearths because Prussia was provoked by a crlmlnarwhom Providence has overtaken? 'It will bo an eternal disgrace to the King of Prussia if he refuses to sheath his bloody sword, now that the canso is gone which induced him to draw it. The pooplo of Germany are as humane as they are courageous. Their King mistakes their sentiments if be thinks it is their wish to prolong this frightful butchery and degrade a nation which has been dragged Into a conflict. An appeal ad dressed to all Christian Germans was the only re sponse to many salutations received trom every quarter oi me latneriana to raise my numoie voice against the barbarity of this war. I thank God it has been heard, for to-day I received a letter from the camp of King William signed by 10,000 men-at-arms, saying that they shrink from slaughter. Will not tho United States, the common homo of so many Germans and French, will not its citizens, it tne government reiuses, inane a uurisuan en on to extinguish the horrid torch of war ? Will not the eldor sister of the young republic stretch forth tho hand of remonstrance against untold calami ties which threaten us. I will appeal to them, too, in my own bumble name, and may Heaven vouch safe that my accents of anguish may reach their hearts, and incline them to protest, in tho name of reason and humanity, against more waste of life, against the sacrifice of a people at the command of a king, against the infliction of death upon an un offending brother people." in reply to a question, v ictor nugo saia ne ne lieved the Republic would accept peace on any honorable terms short of yielding territory. There is groat movement in every part of the city to day. The last departures and II mil concentra tion of troops on the near approach of the Prussians seems to have aroused the military ardor of the people. The streets are tilled with thousands of soldiers marching and countermarching from point to point. Roche fort has been appointed commander of barricades. Louis Blanc has a striking article iu the KcveiiU, in which he proposes that Prussia shall leave the people ot Alsace and Lorraine to vote whether they will attach themselves to France or uermany. King William will sleep on Wednesday night at the country seat of Rothschild, near Paris. It is said the place was tendered the King by the owner to save it from destruction. The government will soon issue bills of the denomination of live, ten and twenty trancs each. Tours, Sept. 13. The arrangements making here to receive the diplomatic body have been discon tinued, as the Minister of Foreign Affairs has de cided to remain in Paris. The representatives of foreign governments will also stay there some days longer. The public here are much impressed in favoi of the American government, and anxiously await the arrival ot Mr. wasnourne.inat tuey may testify their gratitude for his prompt recognition. An imposing demonstration was made in Marseilles yesterday in honor oi tne unueu ocates. xweuty thousand people assembled in front of the American consulate, and the city authorities, through M. Esquiros, presented an address to Milton M. Prloe, consul of the United States. Speeches were made, and the bands played the national airs of Frauce and America. The crowd cheered with great en thusiasm for the consul and government of the United States. -Tours, Sept. 13 This city Is overcrowded with Parisians and foreigners whose flight from Paris has been hastened by the proclamation permitting none to leave after September IS. Many Americans are among the refugees. A large number of govern ment employes have also arrived here, with the transfer of the departments. The delegate of Minister Cremleux, now acting here at the head of the Department of Justice, has issued a Droclamation to France. He says: "As the enemy approaches Paris the government of national defence benas an its energies to proviue for the security of the capital. They have, there fore, charged the Minister of Justice with the care ot the Invaded departments, and the delegate of our Minister of Justice, in common with the ministerial delegates now in Tours, appeals to the patriotism of the population to erect an Impregnable rampart against the forces of invasion." He recalls the memories of 1792, and declares that France must and will drive back now, as she did then, the enemy, which a previous government, weak and odious, allowed to Invade the land. Brumath, near Strasburg, Sept. 9 Special to the New York Herald. The operations against Strasburg are carried on by slow, but sure rule. General Lowensky, who Is General Von Woerder's chief of staff, expresses the opinion that it is a ma thematical certainty that the place will fall about September 24. The course pursued in the siege is not entirely a matter of choice. Strasburg is sur rounded by three consecutive moats, eighteen feet deep, and unless the channel of the 111 can be rhanped thev present an insurmountable obstacle to storming. The general belief Is that Ulrich will capitulate soon. The third parallel approaches completion. The first and second parallels are armed with 24-uounders. and the third Darallel will bs armed with 12S nounders. which, at the distance of two hundred yards, can hardly fail to silence the bat teries. The Red River Troubles. rtav savs that a gentleman who has just arrived from Fort Garry Informs them that tierce exaspe f ort Garry iniorma inem mat nerce c&astra i prevails among the French population there i perfidious violation of the pledges made by anadian government and by Minister Thorn- ration at the lh flu' ten and Secretary Fish, whereby the unopposed en trance of Canadian troops was secured. Auis gen tleman was told by Riel the day before the troops arrived that all bad been satisfactorily arranged, and that he was awaiting the arrival of the newly appointed Governor, Archibald, with his troops, to profier the government to him. Ui til the arrival of the troops within a few miles of Fort Garry, he was confident that the arrange ment would be carried out In good faith, and that the troops bad no other than the pacilio intentions which their commander and the government had professed; and that Governor Archibald was to txib before them and receive tho gsverasuat t LbjUauU. Tbete aosmaJjctx Jud ben glvn him by Blsbop Toche.on behalf of Governor Archfbald and the Canadian government, but at daylight on Augnst 23d word was bronght to him that the troops were advancing np the Red river from Stone fort, and were making prisoners of evervbody passing through their line; that they were in fighting array, and were capturing horses and mounting them with riflemen, and with artillery limbered, and every preparation for battle. Riel saw at once that he had been deceived, an that these warlike demonstrations in eountrr with no enemy in front had a hostile purpose; tha'. It was a treacherous ambuscade and a surprise under a flag ot truce, and that he and his colleagues of the provincial government were to be the vic tims. Riel, Donahue, and Iepln, and afew friends at once took horses and fled, Riel going to Ameri can territory. As the troops entered Fort Garry they loudly demanded of everybody where Riel was, declaring they would shoot him on sight. Everybody was arrested who. was pointed out as having any connection with Riel's movements. On the day of arrival the troops were paid off and let loose on the settlement, which they turned Into a pandemonium. The French half-breed population were intensely excited by tbese event, and the ele ments of rebellion were far more formidable than ever, and ready to burst iato a flame at any mo ment. There is a story vouched for by good author ity, that Kiel ard his colleagues lell Fort Garry upon the advice of Bishop Toche, npon the assur ance that after Governor Archibald's arrival, all would he well. Gov. Archibald has returned. MARINE TELEGRAPH. For additional Harint A'eui ee First Pag. ALMANAC FOU PHILADELPHIA THIS DAT.
