THE- DAILY-EVENING TE LEG HA PI 1 PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1870. 31 CAP1URIMJ PARIS. To.' Abnut It. Arrordln I n PrusMnn onir. A lleutenant-co'onel of the Prussian staff says lLat three armies are in full march on Taris, by way of the Moscl.'e, of the Vosges, and of Bel fort. The G-simin strategist brings these armies, b.idly cut up but still very strong, to cur very walls. They mean to find their way in at all hazards. But Paris is a vast lntrenchf 1 camp: it is not an ordinary stronff place, it is defended by halt a million of men and pro tected by an enceinte of twenty-eight kilometres (17 miles) in circumference, strengthened with ninety-three bastions acd fortified thoroughly, 'iheso walls are still further protected by hi teen detached forts pro vided with seven reat external work?, whoso lires cross and form a second cnclcnte, whoe fcuns can crush everything around them. Paris is further guarded by the Seine, the Marne, and with nn internal circular railway. Such a place cannot be Invested in the regular way; It must be assailed at some vulnerable point. Now, which is the vulnerable point? The eastern forts, Komainvllle, Nocsy, Kosny, Nogent, Vin cennes, are advantageously on a plateau covered bv the Marne, and they form such a strong line that our Prussian admits it would be imprudent to attack on that side. Then, again, it wouldn't tloto attack by Chareuton, for after carrying that place they must cross the fires of Vinccnnes, Ivry, and the ramparts. On the southwest the attack would be against Chareuton, Ivry, and the Bicctre decidedly unadvisablo. Then the southein forts, Montrouge, Vanncs, and fssy, on the steep heights between Sceaux and Ver sailles, are very impracticable. Mont Valerlen is the only work on the west; but then Paris la behind the Belne, which makes a double curve. The banks here are hilly and covered with wood, fnrnifchiDg abundant shelter to tbe defenders. The beeicgers,then,are limited to St. Denis. The Prussian colonel says: "The points of attack are naturally on the north and northeast. They are the weak sides; tiiecastnrn fronts are partly covered by t'.ie 31 true; the south and west are strong, and their attacK mttit compro mise the besiegers' line of retreat, on the north the Tans and Siraxourg Railway would serve lor trans port from the Khlne. Admitting that the Prussian army must be stronger than tho French army, and that the French in the field, being kept ata distance, cannot annoy tho besting force, tit. Denis should be the first point of attadk. He might then -advance on Montniartre without the "risk of a rtanfcing tire from the forts, vve should attack simultaneously the three forts of St. Deni9 and that of Aubervil Hers, and then make a feint on the cast. The siege would resemble that of tebattopol. St. Dents Is on the right bauk of the Seine, which leaves a tongue of land that must be seized by the besieging force. The besiegers will then observe the citadel of Mont Va lerlen; they will cut railways on the left bank of the Seine, and throw a bridge across to communicate with the troops on the right bank." To accomplish this the Prussian officer's ar rangements are to set 50.000 ineu against the three forts of St. Denis and ou fie tougue of land between St. Denis and Mont Valerlen, 20,000 on the north of St. Denis, 20,000 moro in front of Aubcrvilliers; and all these, covered by the forest of lioudy and other point9 of resist ance in that direction, could maintain them selves against any force sent to dislodge them. Tbirtv thousand at Neuilly could operate against the Kosny fort, but their main use would be to secure the line of retreat. Place before St. Denis 50,000, north of St. Denis 20,000, in the forest of Bondy 30,000, at Bouyet 20,000, at Neuilly 80,000, between Neuilly and Villeneuve 30,000 total, 180,000, which would form the siege. This plan was promulgated some seven or eight years ago, Prussia with two other armies, one of 120,000 (tho army of the Upper Rhine), and one to enter France via Switzer land, 100,000 strong, and even then, says its author: "A defeat of the besiegers might attain tho most disastrous proportions, lr the population should take an active part id the war, ana should join the garrison in cutting off the convoys of tho invading army." How the Allies West About It In IS 1 4. Paris was entered by the allies in April, 1814. On the 30th of March, when they were at Meaux King Joseph issued a proclamation to the people of Paris, in which he said: "Citizens: Let this vast city become a camp for some moments, and let the enemy tin 1 their disgrace uuder its wails, which they hope to break through in triumph." The following day Paris capitulated, and the two army corps- regular troops which it con tained agreed to march out of it on the same day, "commending the capital to the generosity of the allied powers." It was only on the evening previous to this unconditional surrender that the Duke of Trevl eo wrote to Prince Schwarzenberg, '"Under the walls of Paris." "We are determined to defend ourselves to the last extremity." THE HORRORS OF BATTLE. A Citizen on the Field of Woerth an Eloquent i'onrayal of Human Mulferlnw. The correspondent of the London Telegraph, writiBg from Saverne, August Jl, fays: i"M. Delmas has wished me to publish the notes he made on the battle-field of Woerth. They are elo quent In their brief Intensity, and they will afford you more varied observations than could be com prised in a mora formal description. As to this you can judge for yourself: "Sunday A rush pell mell of about two thousand French BOldlers, who are running to take refuge la Ntrasburg. heroes yesterday, fugitives to-day. Heroes again to-morrow, when they will have seen the standard again and eaten their soup. Sixty pea sants' carts required to remove the wounded from the Ueld of battle. In tbe 'evening, at Bruckmuhl, a lot of Prussian corpses: a pastor and a Catholic priest. A soldier is struck by his officer because he moved a corpse with his foot. Two hundred wounded men are in the null. N Ight Groaning and treatment of the wounded. Lanterns of marauders In the dis tance, on the Held of battle. An officer of zouaves, his two arms taken off. wounnded lu the neck near tbe dorsal vertebra'. An officer of Wurteniberg, M. von Klberfeld; ball in the lotus; his torments ago nirtngto see. What of his wife and children? Dupout, a Parisian, wounded in the thigh-bone, infers terribly without complaining. "Amputation of a zouave's leg; thirty minutes. II a has been smoking cigarettes all the time. "A Turco, his ear, eye, ami nose all carried off by. the same ba'l. Tiie surgeons give mm morphine to finish his pain, and leave him. But during the night tie Is able to raise himself up. "Kain. Nothing to eat. "Monday morning Visit to Spachbach. Ambu lance in the church. Field of battle circumscribed bv Elsasshauscn. Froschweiler, Woerth, Keishoffen. Spuchbacti. Gonstett, and Morsbroun. An irregular st-mlcircle, of which the centre is Keishoffen. In the valley of woerth all the dead are Prussians. On the heights of Froschweiller there are hecatombs of French of all arms. Tbe cuirassiers lie In the Hop gardens. The hearjs of men. of horses, and of knapsacks. seen from a certaU distance, resemble Hocks of sheen resting on the rise of a hill. At MorsUronn were seen the Prince Frederick Charles and the Duke of taxe t'oburg Gotha. The wounded French and Prussians are treated precisely ou the same foot ing. There la, however, a sensible difference be tween the morale ot the wounded victors and the wounded vanquished. Prussian officers console their men by telling them of the taking of Strasburg, which Is not taken. "At Froschweiler the Chateau Durckhelm has been transformed Into an hotel. There remain traces of an obstinate struggle, our soldier have fought bravely. As far as Elsaashausea the ground is literally paved with shot. We are told by the Prussians that they have shot fifteen maraading peasants. "1 came oron the body of an officer of cuirassiers who had been shot through tbe loins. If the Bin aud the nth cuirassiers are not eutirel destroyed, there can only remain a small fragment of them, poor nieu 1 Brave men ! "The church at Froschwellur burnt down.
