TUB DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH -PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEM B ER 23, 1870. 3 1, rniwa suivxRgAn.Tr. UtTAflalN, At length tbe egony is over, and the fact settled that the Schuylkill Navy ia aa yet un rrepared to successfully cope with strangers. Yesterday afternoon about two thonnand peo ple gathered on the banks of the Schuylkill river to witness the race between the crews of tbe Nassan Boat Clnb, of New York, and the me selected from the entire Schuylkill Navy. The conrae was from a point opposite tbe Tfells to Turtle Rock. At r -08 o'clock, all being in readiness, the signal waa given, and both started off. From the first tbe New Yorkers had the best of it, and it waa easily seen that they would outrow the Fkiladol phians. Straight down the oonrse came the two boats, that of the Nassau Club reaching Turtle Rock 2 seconds ahoad. The coarse was three miles in length. Time Nassau Clnb, 10 minutes 28 seconds; Philadelphia Club, 10 minutes f4 seconds. The referee was Mr. Charles Vezin, ex-Commodore. At a recent meeting of the Tark Commis sioners, the following business waa trans ected: Belmont avenue was directed to be macadamized, the Vulcanite (concrete) pave ment to be laid for a distance of one hundred yards in the roadway of Belmont avenue. The new pathway, about half a mile in length, leading from Belmont Station on the Reading iiailroad to lielmont Mansion, was named 'Belmont Glen." To make this beautiful and shady path (on the line of which there are three enclosed springs) at all timea ac cessible, it is to be covered with vulcanite pavement. Water closets were ordered to be built on Landsdowne and Belmont drives Appropriations were made for the improve ment of wells and pumps in the Park, re pairs of culvert on the Wissahickon drive, and to the Red Bridge on the same drive. Contracts were ordered to be made for the widening and grading of Landsdowne drive; for the new connecting road between George's Hill and Elm avenue, the eastern boundary of the West Park; for the grading of the River road to the contemplated tunnel under the Reading Road; for the supply of street dirt'; for the drainage of the new portion (late Coates street) of the East Park and the erec tion of a brick sewer, and for the alteration of the bridge on Landsdowne drive leading over the old River road. Appaopriations were also made for two additional stone breaking machines, for general drainage, and for the propagating house. Doraegtte Affairs. Gold closed yesterday at 113?.

THE INVESTMENT OF PARIS INTERNAL DISSEN SIONS IN I'EANCE THE "BED" REPUBLICANS THE FAVBE-BISMABCK PEACE PROJECT NOT SUCCESSFUL. London. Sept. 22. General Burnside loft for Paris this morning, lie carries with him letters from Count Bernstorff to Bismarck, and also to tbe Prussian and t rench command ers, and expects to get through the lines; but it is doubtful if he succeeds. All communi cation between Paris and Tours has been cut, and the members of the provisional govern ment are now as effectually separated as be fore. Lyons and Paris are not in political accord. The great cities of France refuse to be bound by the action of the capital, ifit capitu lates. The report from Tours that Thiers had ob tained from England a recognition of the pro visional government Is not believed here. We must wait and see what the Constituent As sembly does. - ' In Tours the belief is that no negotiations for peace are likely to succeed until the mili tary events before Paris assume a decided turn. Tbe armament of the fortifications of Lille has been completed, and an immense stock ot munitions of war and provisions has been laid in. Specie payments have been suspended by official notice. London, Sept. 22. Special to the New York Tribune. A Paris correspondent says the report of an insurrection at Lyons against the Paris government is not true. A munici pal election was held on the 15th inst., and returned a majority of the independent com mittee to council. They are mostly members of tbe International Workingmen's Associa tion, who fly the red flag. They distrust Trochu and Favre,but do not reject the provisional government. The town was quiet, except for the incessant cannon practice. The whole population was armed generally with muzzle-loading smooth-bore guns. Mobt of the battalions carried no flags and a few have the tricolor. Five thousand men from the Shone valley were throwing up earthworks. Lyons is resolved to resist if attacked. There were about 40,000 regulars in the city. The troops from the Algerian depots were concentrated at Lyons. A General, coming from Oran, says that matters were serious in Algeria. A rising of tbe Spanish and Italian colonists at Oran had bten crushed with little loss. Papers have been found, showing that Prussia waa con cerned in the affair. A foreign legion, con taining: many Germans, cad mutinied. The following is the French plan for national defence: AH the mobiles and young regulars now scattered over tbe southern towns are to be concentrated in Borne one of them. No Open town is to be defended in the north, but the fortified places of Lille, Abbeville, Dunkirk, Calais, Cherbourg, St. Ma! o and Brest are pre pared to stand a siege. Havre, which has an exceedingly strong fort on a hill, is being strengthened by lines like those at Lyons, but Rouen is to be aban doned to the enemy. Tbe southern army, when concentrated, is to wait until the latest possible moment to gain time for drills, but when one of the great outer forts of Paris has been taken and tbe bombardment of the city commences, the army will march north against the Prussians. As to the military preparations in general there is abundance of men. Small arms are very scarce and there is great difficulty in get ting even smooth bore muzzle-loaders. Fur ther supplies are expected shortly from Eng land and elsewhere. Ammunition is still more deficient Cavalry and artillery scarcely ex ist, and there is no hope of providing either in time for the operations affecting Paris. Paris, Sept. 22. It is impossible to sepa rate now tho political from the military ques tion, for understanding one you must under stand the other. There are two different Powers in Paris: One official tho provisional government, which satisfies nobody, but Is ac cepted and tolerated by everybody; and the other is the central republican committee, composed ol four delegates from each arron dissement or eighty delegates. These four de legates are selected from twenty-five delegates elected by the people in every arrondissement. They are in constant communication with the people during the day through twenty-one de legates remaining in tbe arrondissement, and at night by public meetings. A special committee of five remain in per manency, day and night. At the sitting of the Assembly jut,t eighty delegates constitute the Commune of "Paris. The International Association of Working men has been the cradle of that powerful organization, wfyich is objectionable, to the bourgeoise, and a source of fear to the gov ernment, but has the deepest root in the hearts of the people. They sent, yesterday, a message, io. Ihe government, asking for immediate measures: First. To transfer the police frOm the cen tral government to the municipalities; tho election of magistrates; abrogation of every law or decree interfering with the absolute freedom of speech, of the press, meeting or associations. Second. The appropriation of the neces saries of life wherever to be found, and their distribution among the families of the National Guard and hose in need, proportionately to the amount of provisions, the probable dura tion of tho siege; and the number of persons to be fed. Third. The immediate appropriation of all empty apartments or public buildings for the accommodation of the defenders of tho city. Fourth. A levy en masse of all Frenchmon without exception. Fifth. The immediate dispatch of general commissioners to tho departments to raise the population and send them to defend Paris. The government refused yesterday to yield to these demands, and to-day a delegation of one hundred and twenty members, comprising eighty members of the central committee and two special delegates from each arrondissement, will again present them; and if the govern ment persists in its refusal the people them selves will come peacefully but en manse. At Lyons tne workmen have constituted an independent government for the defence of France. The first success of the Prussians will overthrow the provisional government as Sedan overthrew the imperial government, and then the people will certainly take better care of themselves than their traditional masters have. The Prussian cavalry entered Mantes, on the Havre and Paris Railroad, and made a requisition, but subsequently rejoined their corps, which was advancing m that direction. The hghting near Pans continued, with varying results. No important engagement has yet taken place. The report that the Prussians had occupied Orleans is not confirmed. The manufacture of arms by private parties as well as in the national armories has been vastly increased. Letters from Metz, picked up at Teutrange, reiterate the assurances that tbe place is well provisioned and that the morale of tho garri son Is excellent. Count de La Guerroniere, while returning from Constantinople, was arrested at Mar seilles, but was released by order of the gov ernment. It is reported that Lyons will be made the temporary capital of France. The provisional government has determined to repress the excesses of the "Reds." Paris, Sept. 20. Special to the New York Herald. The last hours for leaving the city were marked by a rush of hundreds, whose courage way at the latest moment. Hundreds of applications were made to Mr. Washburne for passports, by Frenchmen who were never outside of France, and who pre tended to be naturalized citizens, but were un able to produce their papers. Beyond doubt Paris is provisioned for four months. An appeal has been issued by the authorities begging the citizens to exorcise the greatest care and irugality in the use of provi sions from (he present time. Trochu is working indefatigably. Yester day he was confined to his bed by illness. For the past two nights Paris has been in almost total darkness. , The action of the extreme republicans, even in this hour of trial when unity is indispensa ble, on Saturday and Sunday was disgraceful. There were demonstrations in several portions of the city in consequence of the demands of the "Beds;" noisy and dangerous crowds as sembled in different quarters, uttering revolt ing cries. A large numter of the roughs were armed. In some places violence was commit ted, and in one place a storehouse was broken open and a quantity of provisions seized under pretence of authority from the Committee of defence. On Sunday night much terror prevailed among the better class of people, and on Mon day a large force of the National Guard and some regulars and marines from the forts marched into the city to preserve order. Tours, Sept. 21. Information received here to-day destroys the hopes of peace. Favre expressed his willingness to accede to a plan, to satisfy Prussia, for electing a repre sentative assembly, and thus obtain the voice of a duly accredited government in making terms of peace, but the counsellors of the Kiog of Prussia positively refuse an armistice, and will make peace only on condition of retaining possession of the districts now occupied until terms are ratified by the Constitutional As sembly. Although the question of terms has not yet been reached, Favre informs Ids asso ciates that the cession of Alsace will certainly be the ultimatum of Prussia, and he has little hope of success in his mission. Tours, ept. 22. Special to New York Herald. The greatest activity prevails in all departments here for the national defence. Tbe council general of the Department of Cal vados has voted 3,000,000f, and that of Lyons 10,000,000f and 200,000 men, and that of Lille large sum of money and a great number of men. Reinforcements of volunteers arrive daily. Five hundred soldiers who escaped from Sedan, have entered Tonl. Calais, Sept. 22. The main portion of the French fleet is here, and three ironclads are at Dunkirk. Marseille!, Sept. 22. Garibaldi is pre vented lrom leaving Caprera and is guarded as a prisoner. Italian war vessels are cruising off that island. Berlin, Sept. 22 Special to the New York Tribune. Official advices from head quarters report that Favre being presented, the first point considered was whether the Consti tutional Assembly, about to be chosen, could be relied on to recognize a treaty made with the Favre government as binding. Favre is understood to offer as terms of peace indemni fication for the cost of the war, the demolition of the fortifications of Metz and Strasburg, and the surrendtr of a portion of the French fleet. A correspondent telegraphs on September 22, evening, that the oflicial statement of the military situation declares the investment of Paris completed to the full extent deemed re quisite for strategic purposes. The troops, while marching to be assigned to positions, met with no resistance. Attempts at defence in the open field was completely frustrated by the defeat of Vinoy's division on Sept. 19. The bombardment of Toul has been ener getically continued, since September 10, from heavy siege guns. The railway from Frouard, which turns at Tool, approaches completion. The corps investing Thionville are greatly molested by daily sorties from the fortifica tions and attacks by the sharpshooters. At Metz, during the last fortnight, nothing important has occurred. A sortie was made by a French corps along the Strasburg road. The engagement lasted a few hours and ended at dark, the Prussians occupying the chateau of Marcy le Haut, at Strasburg. The taking of lunettes 52 and 53 secures tbe successful running of parallels for the stoimmg of the inner fortifications and final capture of the city. No French fleet remains in tho Baltic. A correspondent before Strasbarg, writing on September 18, says: "Ihe fire of the Ger mans is maintained with perfect regularity and increasing force, and the reply of the French is intermitted; at times furious and seldcm harmful. Their shells are defective, one-third of them bursting in the air. Their supply of fuses is deficient, 80,000 of them having been recently captured on the Hhine. All efforts to draw the moats have failed, the rains keeping them full. Nevertheless the place could be taken any day by a determined assault, but Werder's instructions still oblige him to postpone it. The Germans complain because the inhabi tants are allowed to leave, thus prolonging the defence. Beef in the city is 5 francs per lb., horse flesh two francs, and vegetables are un known. Salt is exceedingly scarce. The sharpshooters in Alsace have been scat tered by the uhlans, and the whole province is now regularly occupied, and Schlestadt and one or two other places are expected to be. The people of Alsace are impatient for peace on any terms. They have been cut off for six weeks from all communication outside, no let ters having been sent or received. MARINE TELEGRAPH.
