Ell FRIDAY- Noimpriu, NOT. 4, 1874. D. A. BUEHLER, Editor and Business Agent CM is our war summary will be found the details of the surrender of the fam ous fortress of Met to the Prussians. I t is probably the most formidable for .: tress in Europe, aside from Gibraltar. Fur centuries it has been noted in European struggles, successive engi neers of great reputation having added orks, until it came to be regarded Im pregnable as against assault. Starve ion has done for the Prussians what shot and shell could not have done. A 7.i, , iinison of ten or twenty thousand men could have held the works against all comers. I:nfortunatelY for the French, the superior tactics -of the Prussian commanders, in the out,start of the war, drove Bazaine with his immense army into the works, which were at once in-' vested by rapid combinations of the Prussian forces. Bazaine made repeat ed efforts to cut his way out, fighting bloody battles, around the walls, but was uniformaly driven back, and his army held as in a vice. With 170,000 men to feed, the supplies rapidly dimin ished, until want and famine compelled a surrender. It is a heavy blow to France. With the victory at Sedan and the surrender of Metz, the regular French army, which opened the War with the "On-to-Berlin" cry, has been annihilated. Over 300,000 are prisoners in German liands, and the balance kill ed ,or disabled. All the fighting Gen erals of repute, on whom the hopes of Franeh rested at the beginning, of the War—Alcliahon, Bazalue, Caurobert, Le Beuf, Douay, &c., 'have been cap tured or killed. The campaign has been brief, sharp, and extraordinary—proving the military ~ i periority of Prussia in all respects. .uce to-day lies hopelessly at the feet her conquerors, with an immense tlrtt y, flushed with victory and led by . 1 :e same soldiers who crushed 3felifa bo .1 and Bazaine, investing the City of 1' .s. The fate of the latter is only a -lion of tilne. There is no possible hope for'France but peace on the best terms the conquerors may be milling to . . _ give. Yet Gambetta and his followers refuse to recognize the stern logic of , vents, and issue frantic appeals to the people to continue the struggle, prefer ring all the horrors of the bombardment of a magnificent city, with its two mil lions of men, women and children, who must undergo sufferings, compared to which all in the past has been mere play. • In the mean time the Prussians are quietly but effectively concentrating around Paris and arranging the engines of death to bear on the doomed city, un less Gambetta and his mad-cap follow ers come to terms, , Besides these military troubles, the tame of Frapce is further darkened by dissensions in the Republican ranks— red Republicans and rabid aggrarians contesting with moderate Republicans for power, while the Imperialists 1414 Or leanists are plotting and anitiouslx watching devolopments, each anxious ~-trlgize the proper moment to get into power. General mistrust prevails. Trochu and Thiers are said to be at heart Orleanists, and the jealous masses know not whom to trust. We see no out-look for France, with infidelity, aggrarianiam, and debauched eongeience pervading the masses of the people, but in a return to a military gov ernment strong enough to repress dis order and hold in check the revolution ary spirit which in 1703 deluged France With blood.

They elect the Governor, with a majority of the Legislature and two of the three members of Congress. It is very evident that little is to be ex pected in the South where the white element, pueliominates. Rebel hate and malignity were not suridued in the dis comfiture of the Rebel wades, and are now as rampant as during Usk:Rebel lion, when blatant demagogtias fired the Southern heart with dentmeiations -of the Government. The hope of the country, for the present, rests, with the loyal colored men in the Southern States who vote as they fought, for Free dom and the Right.

[Signed} ."Wizusie." Los - DoN, Oct. 27.-=-The special corres pondent of the Tribune, before Metz, tele graphs on the 28th: Five days ago General Coffeniers, com mandant of the city and fortress of Metz, informed Marshal Bazaine, commanding the army encamped outside, that he could : supply no more provisions, and that they must shift for- themselves. Thereupon, Bazaine ordered his outposts to cease fir ing'ou the Prussian pickets, and tacitly allowed his men to desert in groups of a dozen or two, who are accepted by the Prussian outposts as prisoners. Larger bodies were refused. On the afternoon of the 24th, trustworthy information came from Metz, by a civilian spy, that an out break,. en mesas, would be made during the night towards Gravelotte, as Bazaine's of fers to capitulate with his army alone had been repeatedly and peremptorily refused, the outbreak to be made without the hope of saving any portion of the organized troops, but simply to enable those super fluous mouths to get behind the German lines and force the Germans to take them prisoners, whereby the fortress (Might hold out a little longer with the small gar rison, but at 7 o'clock in the evening Ba zaine had suomeded in convincing Gener al Coffeniers that the inevitable blood shed consequent on such an attempt would be too dear a price to be paid for a few days prolongation of resistance. A messen ger was sent to Prince Frederick Charles intimating the intention in the garrison to capitulate. This was the first proposi tion ever made including the fortress and the outside army. Accordingly at mid night the Prussian troops which had been marching silently toward Gravelotte re ceived orders to retire to their camps. At one o'clock yesterday afternoon General' dhangarnier arrived and spent an hour with the Prince, and departed much dis turbed, excusing some absent mindedness of his own, saying, "No wonder; the Prince was so severe." By the arrangements of this meeting Gen. Stiehle, Col. Von Herzanig, Chief of Staff and Quartermaster General of the Prince's Army, rode to Chateau de Fres coty, three miles south of Metz, just with in the Prussian lines, whither two French commanders, with Hnmbert second in command in the fortress, had been brought by a Prussian. post-chaise. The meeting lasted from 6 to 7 o'clock in the evening, and resulted only at parting in an-agreement that the disputed points should be discussed again at noon to-day. Matters were, however, so far advanced that the Second torps received orders to march for Pads yesterday at noon, and started early in the evening. Other troops concen4Aed at the nearest attain able point to Metz last night, to prevent' desertion, Eareine's last means of pro longing negotiations. All the way frotn Mars-la-Tour to Cour cones, and fromiJany to Mezieres, all the village quarters were lit up and all the bivouac lines were burning at 2 o'clock this morning. Moving masses covered the roads and fields. No disturbance oc curred, and none of the troops suspected the truth. Br.su.m, Oct• 28.—The news• of the sur render of Bazaine, and the capitulation of Metz, created the wildest enthusiasm, being bulletined publicly from the balco- vies of the ministers of the interior and war. Great crowds, rapidly Welling to enoritiaaa propstrtians, gurrounded the ministries, cheering and making the mos exuberant demonstrations of joy and de light. Prominent officials were serenaded, and their residences besieged by eager crowds, and-their occupants were forced to appear and address the congregation corn posed of men, women and children. In the evening a 'Procession of immense length, headed by bands of music, para ded the streets with banners and dam- beaux. The principal Kum* platten laxly the grand avenue, linter den Lin den, .were packed with people singing and cheering. The scenes in the evening were a rope tition of those in the afternoon. Mumcn, Oct,, 28.—There were great re °icings here yesterday over the announce- rasa. teir , sgraphed direct from Versailles that Bazaine and his army had 'surren dered to Prince Frederick ,Charles. The royal palace was serenaded and the statue of the king of Bavaria wreathed with flowers TIM DETAILS OF THE CAFITHLATION LONDON, Oct. 80,—The *aline spe cial correspondent telegraphs to-day from Metz: -My, telegram of the 26th left the capitu lation unfinished. On the evening be fore the German thief-of-Staff had left Frascati very much discouraged, and scarcely hoping for any agreement, as the French appeared intractable and ob stjnate. Nevertheless, I knew from prig Tate ( sources that Metz could not hold out, ind'aceordingly told you to expect the ca pitulation surely. At noon Bazalne sent Prince Fred erick Charles an autograph letter asking anoth er conference, and accordingly the sent General Stier.le, Chief-of-Staff of the Second Army, and Count Warteurs Leben; Chief-of-Staff of the First 4rmy, to Frascati once more.

TOURS, Oct. 29.—Evening.-L' There is great excitement here to-day owing to the report that Metz has fallen and Bazaine capitulated. The first rumors last night were refused credit, but now it is known to be true, and the people are wild and dangerous. There is division of senti ment on the new. The Government loud. ly denounces the army as traitors to their country, and openly threaten the leaders with a drum-head court-martial should they come to Tours, and declares the sur render to be a plot of the Empire to regain possession of power. Cooler persons con demn these assaults on the loyalty of the army, and believe Bazaine fought nobly and only yielded to starvation. Many openly talk of peace, and express the be- lief that the Government are more eager to retain power than to save the country from further horrors. There has been some insubordination among the milita ry. The Government is determined to punish disobedience to the utmost if they possess the power. A removal of th 6 sea of the department is probable CIRCULAR FROM BISMARCK. Bismarck has issued a circular in which he reviews the -unbroken line of German victories to show that France can have no ope of prolonging resistance, and that Paris should at oboe accept the terms of ferreti it for capitulation_ Otherwise he anticipates fearful suffering to the two millions of people within its walls, whom the besiegers will not be able to feed after the horrors of bombardment, siege and starvation shall have forced them to yield. The French army of the Loire was pre 'paring for movements which have been checked by Bazaine's surrender Government at Tours has issued a procla mation denouncing his action as a betray- al of the country and 'calling on the nu- ion still to persevere in their efforts for the Republic. Princes Frederick William and Frederick Charles have been made Field Marshals as a reward for their vic- tones over the• armies of Bazaine and McMahon TUESDAY Nov, L—King Wilhelm has officially announced his determination to I immediately bombard the city of Paris, unless it sprrenders to avoid the horrors of bombardment. Bismarck has issued a circular to foreign powers, reciting the uniform sac. oesses of the German armies, the hopeless.. .ness of continne4resistance by the French, and throwing on tiro Government of France the responsibißty of a continua. tion of the war and consequent loss of life and suffering. Germany is ready to with. draw from the contest, as soon as Fiance agrees to meet the just demands of Prim aia for indemnity and security against future aggressions. The Germans around Paris held solemn Lligiousserviees yesterday in commemo ration of the Reformation. The news from Paris, received by way of the Prusstan headquarters before that city is quite. serious. The French prifoners recently captured report that the troops behind the fortifications receive only half; pouud or meat twioo a week. General flourbaki announces his inten tion to form flying armies with material to relieve invested places, and to take the field at the head of the forces. Vigorous prepar atiop for defence are making OR all sides, A detachment of six thousand troops from the army of Prince Frederick Martin has gone to besiege • Longuy, near the Belgian border. As Prussia still demands cession of ter ritory from France as a preliminary of peace, it is believed in Austrian Ada' circles that the war must proceed indefi nitely. A Cologne desiatcli says 'Prussia and the North German Confederation have furnished seven hundred and forty thou sand troops for the present war, and the States of Smith Germany one hundred and sixteen thousand. Of this grand total of eight butuired and fifty six thousand men nearly all are• now . on French soil. They are expected to complete the conquest of Fiance in a short winter campaign. Et correspondent states that previous to the capitulation of Metz BaaMe had buried in the earth a caisse de Parmee, contain ing 400,000,000 francs in gold and 100,000,- 000 franc's in silver.
