Washington, Oct. 8. The following procla
mation was Itsued to-day:
1'y the President oftlie United States of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
Wherea. On the 22d day of Aagust, 1870. my
proclamation was issued enjoining neutrality in
the present war between France and the North
(jerman Confederation and its allies, and de
claring, so far as there seemed to be necessity,
the respective rights and obligations of the bel
ligerent parties and of the citizens of the United
Slates; and,
Whereas, Subsequent information gives rea
son to apprehend that armed cruisers of the bel
ligerents may be tempted to abuse the hospi
tality accorded to them in the ports, harbors,
roadsteads, and other waters of the United
States by making such waters subservient to the
purposes of war:
Now, tberefore I, Ulysses S. Grant, President
of the United States ot America, do hereby pro
claim and declare that any frequenting and use
of the waters within the territorial jurisdiction
of the United States by the armed vessels of
either belligerent, whether public ship3 or pri
vateers, for the purpose of preparing for hostile
operations or as posts of observation upon the
ehips-of-war or privateers or merchant vessels
of the other belligerent lying within or being
about to enter the jurisdiction of the United
Stales, must be regarded as unfriendly and
offensive, and in violation of that neutrality
which it is the determination of this Government
to observe; and to the end that the hazard and
inconvenience of such apprehended practices
may be avoided, I further proclaim and declare
that from nnd alter the 12lL day of October in
stant, and during the continuance of the
preterit hostilities between France aud the North
Geiman Confederation, aud its allies, no ship-of-war
or privateer of either belligerent shall be
permitted to make use of any port, harbor,
roadttead, or other waters within the jurisdic
tion of the United States as a station or place of
resort for any warlike purposes, or for the pur
pose of obtaining any facilities of warlike equip
ment, and no ship-of-war or privateer of either
belligerent shall be permitted to sail out of or
leave aoy port, harbor, roadstead, or waters sub
ject to the jurisdiction of the United States,from
which a vessel of the other belligerent, whether
the same shall be a shlp-ot-war, a privateer or a
merchant ship, shall have previously departed,
until a ter the expiration of at least tweuty-four
hours from the departure of such last-mentioned
vessel beyond the jurisdiction of the United
S'.ates. ,
If any ship-of-war or privateer or other belli
gerent shall, after the time this notification
tak es effect, enter any port, harbor, roadstead,
or waters of the United States, such vessels
shall be required to depart and put
to sea within twenty-four hours after her en
trance into such harbor, roadstead, or waters,
except In cases of stress of weather or of her re
quiring provisions or things neeessary for the
subsistence of her crew, or tor repairs; in either
ot which cases the authorities of the port, or
the nearest port, as the case may be, shall re
quire her to put to sea as soon as possible after
the expiration of such period of twenty-four
hours, without permitting her to take in sup
plies beyond what may be necessary for her im
mediate nse; and no such vessel which may have
been permitted to remain within the waters
of the United States for the purpose of
repair shall continue within such port, harbor,
roadsteads or waters for a longer period than
twenty-fours after her necessary repairs shall
have been completed, unless within such twenty
four hours a vessel, whether ship-of-war, pri
vateer or merchant ship, of the other belligerent
shall have departed therefrom; in which case
tbe time limited for the departure of such ship-of-war
or privateer shall be extended so far as
may be necessary to secure an interval of not
less than twenty-four hours between such de
parture and that of any ship-of-war, privateer
or merchant ship of the other belligerent which
may save previously quit tne same port, narbor,
roadstead or waters. N shlo-of-war or pri
vateer of either belligerent shall be detained la
any port, harbor, roadstead or waters of the
United States more than twenty-four hours by
reason of tbe successive departures from such
Dort. harbor, roadstead or waters of more than
one vessel of the other belligerent. But if
there be several vessels of each or either of the
two belligerents in the same port, harbor, road
stead or waters, the order of their departure
shall be so arranged as to afford the opportunity
of leav Dg alternately fi ice vessels of tne re
tctive LvliUtiiU, and to caste the least de
tention consistent with the objects of th'
proclamation. No ship-of-war or privateer of
either belligermt shall be permitted while In
any port, bnrbor, roadstead or waters within the
jurisdiction of tbe L'uitcd States, to take in any
supplies except provisions and such other things
as may be requisite for tho subsistence of her
crew, and except so much coal only as may be
fuQlclent to carry such vessel, without
sail power, into the nearest European port
of her own country, or. in case the ves
sel is ripped to go under sail and may
uIpo be propelled by steam-power, then with
half the quantity of coal which she would be
entitled to receive If dependent upon steam
alone; and no coal shall be aain supplied to
any such ship of war or privateer In the same,
or any other port, harbor, or waters of the
United States, without special permission, until
after the expiration of three months from the
time when such coal may have been last sup
plied to ber within the waters of the United
States, unless such ship of war or privateer
shall, 6lnce last thus supplied, have entered a
European port of the Government to which she
belongs.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to bo affixed. Done at tbe city of Wash
ington this eighth day of October, in the year
of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and
seventy, and of the Independence of the United
States of America the ninety-fifth.

TXX33 WAR.
I.A.ST NirSHT'8 DESPATCHES.
THE 6TRVGGLB AT TARIS ABOUT TO COMMENCE
IT WILL HOLD OUT TO THE LAST PROCLA
MATION OF GAMBETTA GARIBALDI IN PAKIS.
I-Onion. Oct. 8 fSnecial te the New York
Times. We are told by correspondence from the
headquarters cf the Prussian King that the gnus
for tho siege of Paris are in place, and iukl lii art
other week tho assault will begin. It Is believed
that tho assault will commence on October 10, tlia
anniversary of the battle of Leipsig, and the Ger
mans count on being in Paris by October 19, but
they may not find the task so easy.
On the question of provisions holding out and re
specting their sufficiency there are various
opinions. In the meantime the French are begin
ning to make a snowoi successful resistance in tue
departments, opposing step by step the advance of
the new Prussian corps now in the Vosges.
Tne near approach ot tne Horrors or bombardment
excites universal pity and sympathy here, and elo
quent advocates of mediation, newspapers like tho
Standard, are trying to urge the government to
action. The horrors disclosed after the siege of
Strasburg, forcibly aid these appeals, but the Min
istry manifests no intention of moving, and the peo
ple await the assault in dread and anxiety. In an
eloquent article to-day, the Standard says the siege
of Paris is sot called for, and is going too far.
Our ians correspondent writes, under date ot
October 3, that the documents found in the Impe
rial archives and published by the Provisional Go
vernment, show conclunively that the people of
France were opposed to the war. Letters from the
prelects oi departments eetabiisn this tact, which
Is important, as furnishing an answer to Bismarck's
argument for harsh conditions.
Bismarck has written a letter approving of the
arrest of Jacobi.
The Czarina of Russia lias sentalarce amount
of hospital supplies, with money, to Wurtemburg.
Tbe appearance of guerillas in several of the de
partments of the north of France evokes a Prus
sian threat or imposing a contriDiition or 1,000,000
francs among departments where they appaar, aud
commands that the authorities take warning.
The number of wounded French prisoners in
Germany is 3577 officers and 12,370 men.
The Belgian bishops will soon meet at Mechlin,
with tho clergy and laity, to protest against the
treatment 01 tlie fope, anu to consider nis situation.
At Tours the Breton volunteers are ordered to
in ft r eh on October 11 from Ateisey.
Besancon has been placed in a complete state of
defence.
London, Oct. 8 Special to New York World. -It
is said that Burnsideis negotiating for a post
ponement of the bombardment until the Constitu
ent Assembly meets. The army of the Loire, 80,000
strong, is slowly advancing on Paris.
Dispatches from Koueu state that Gambetta is
expected at that place, and that an honsrable re
ception awaits mm.
A large amount oi artiuery is oemg concentrateu
at Toulouse. The fortifications ot Lyons are ad
vancing rapidly to completion.
A steam mitrailleuse, with a range of 4000 metres,
is being manufactured at Lyons.
Lontign, Oct. 8. Special to the New York
Herald. Cardinal Cullen violently condemns Vic
tor Emmanuel, Garibaldi, Mazzini and Ernest Ra
nrn, calling them sacrilegious revolutionists.
London, Oct. 8 Special to the New York
Tribune. A correspondent before Mett, on Octo
ber", telegraphs as follows: This afternoon, at one
o'clock, Bazaine made a desperate attempt to break
through the Prussian lines, in the direction of
Tbionville- The Prussians, the previous evening,
had driven the French from the village ot Ladoin
champs, and had established advanced posts in
Stemey, Grande and Petite Ktapes and Maxe.
Bazaine, under cover of a thick fog, advanced
his trocps, and commenced an attack for the re
covery of Ladomchamps. Having engaged the
Prussian artillery, be made a dash tor Grand and
Petite Ktapes, annihilating the advanced outposts,
and throwing great masses of men on their sup
ports. When these villages had been occupied,
Bazaine sent forward a large body of troops, on the
right, close to tbe Moselle, which advanced up the
valloy until checked by the Prussian cannon from
both sides of the river, and were llnally stopped by
the advance of two landwehr brigades of the 10th
army corps, which occuped a position opposite
Grand and Petite Etapes, and who distinguished
themselves greatly.
A fusileer battalion of the 58th landwehr regi
ment was nearly exterminated, and other battalions
of the same regiment and the 58th landwehr also
suffered greatly. Finally, at 4 30 P. M., the French
were driven back from all their positions, by a
general advance of tbe landwehr and the 10th army
corps. There was much bayonet fighting in tbe
villages. General Yon Brandeneteln, commanding
the 5th landwehr division, was wounded by my
side. Tbe Prussian victory was complete. Their
lost in killed and wounded was heavy, but it was
heavier on the French side.
Tbe French sent out all their field artillery and
infantry, supported by the forts of St. Julian and
Steloy. The whole Prussian 10th and 3d army
corps and landwehr divisions were engaged. The
General commanding was Yon Voight. or the 10th
army corps. The French mads simultaneously a
feigned attack on Vanay, Ghtevellee, Gharly and
L'Orine, to the north and east of Fort SU Julian,
which was repulsed.
The same correspondent telegraphs from Nolsse
vllle, on October 8, at 8 A. M : The French, dur
ing the night, accumulated in large masses ou the
eastern slopes of St. Julian, towards Meti. The
Prussian advance posts were drawn back and tbe
reserves called ou. The artillery crowns every
eminence. The shells from St. Julian so crashing
Into Noisseville, and a furious cannonading is going
on to the south by Colo in bey, Mercy la llaut and
Petre. The French fort at St. Prevat is also
firing.
The controversy between Prussia and England In
regard to the violation of her neutrality Taws by
the export of arms to France is growing more ana
more serious. Bernstorit's delaying a reply to
Granville's last communication created the belief
that Prussia had abandoned the diseuaslon. A
strong dispatch sent to the foreign office to-day ex
plains that the delay was due to hopes for peace,
which now disappear, and reviews the whole ques
tion at great length, and with ability. It points out
how tbe English government shifted ground first
regarding proof of the alleged supplies to France;
but when the proof was furnished, Granville de
clared the traffic legitimate, and that the custom
authorities had no power to stop it, Imputing to
Prussia a desire for benevolent neutrality from
England.
BernHtortT denies intimating such a desire, and
reminds Granville that he expressed, on tbe one
hand, satisfaction that English public opinion was
on the side of Prussia, and on the other, regret that
that opinion had no greater influence in that gov
ernment. He says: I have not asked England to transgress
her neutrality in favor of Prussia, but to maintain
that her neutrality, while intended to be impar
tial, becomes, In ft praotloal effects, neutrality
benevolent and partial toward France permitting
the French agents to buy up in this country, under
the eyes, and with the cognisance of th British
government, great quantities of arms and ammu
nition. The sworn testimony proves that 150,000
stand of arms have been exported to France sines
September 30, and that a number of manufac
turers, especially in London and Birmingham, are
working day and night tor tbe French agents. I
fiostt as aatbenticated copies of contracts bat ween
the French government and English houses, an1
the proofs that the export of anus aud ammunition
If thoroughly organised at several British ports.
The British government admits that it hat the
power to stop this export, but I init that ths
practice is not to exercise the power, except in
h'pglivh interest. Two examples are giveu to
prove US eoutrarv- Pimt. Wellington's Uu .-r to
ChLLltg, jaj.ig tlat Ecgland'a utual praclcs w
to prohibit men f jcport. snj ttant not prohibited It
f a breach of tmifrjiiiiyj and 'ond, the'orders
l nied in IMS to thp rimionig authorities to prevent
the expectation of arnm for uce sgainut Denmark.
In direct contradiction to this is the order issued by
the same authorities on .September 8, not in a cane
Of delay in the shipment of arms and ammunition.
Granville further alleges the difficulty or effectu
ally snj pressing such export, but such regulations
already exist In France. Complaints that Prussia
during the Crimean war allowed the transport of
arms, were then made, and are now renewed, but
at tbe timo were shown to have been unfounded.
Refuting various other suggestions of Granville,
Connt BernstofT concludes: "As for the hope ex
pressed by your excellency that the German people
will, in a cooler moment, judge less severely the at
titude of the British government, I regret that after
yonr excellency's note of thel5thult.it has been
sdded to our knowledge that an enemy is being daily
equipped with British arms. I cannot, therefore,
share such a hope, and can only trust that the
known sympathy of the English people may produce
a chsnge for the better.
BE A special correspondent writing from Berlin on
Oct. tith, sajs: "An emissary from Basaine asked
Bismarck to permit him to retain Metz and remain
neutral during hostilities, which was declined, but
the same agent was permitted to proceed to Wil
belrathohe with a view to further negotiations. No
frcfrh interview has occurred between him and
Bismarck, but all kinds of negotiations are con
tinually going on.
London, Oct. 9 Special to New York Herald.
A correspondent at the Prussian headquarters
says: "You may rest assured that the siege of Paris
will not be delayed an hour longer than is neces
sary to make the attack.
A decisive headway has recently been made. The
French f orces gathering in unoccupied portions of
France are not feared, however they progress. The
new army on the way from Germany to atrasburg
will crush out such organizations.
M. Gambetta ii-sues a proclamation to the people
of tbe departments. After reviewing the position
of Paiis, and showing the preparations made by
tbe government for months to maintain them
selves, he says: "The situation imposes on us great
duties. First of all, it is for you to cease to be di
verted by any pre-occupation which may not be tbe
war a combat a Voitfmnce. The second is, until
peace comes to accept fraternally the authority of
the Republic, proceeding from necessity and right,
and power which weuld not exist a moment were it)
exercised for the profit of any ambition.
''Iteri Is n6W uut one passion and but one
thought, to rescue France from the abyss into which
monarchy has plunged ber. This makes the repub
lic, w hich has been well founded and which affords
a shelter to the conspirators and reactionists. So,
therefore, I have a command for you: Abandoning
all other affairs, and without taking account of the
difficulties and the obstacles which are to be over
come, to co-operate with all your unrestrained en
ergies in remedying the evils of the situation.
"The time is short inwhich to supply ,to the active
force all it has lost by delay. The men are not
wanting. This delay it is which has wrought da
feat. Now come resolution and decision, and it is
in the execution of their projects that the Republic
makes an appeal to tbe co-operation of all.
"This government takes upon itself tbe duty of
utilizing all your courage and of employing all
your capacity. It is a tradition to arm our young
cadets; and while we do this, the heavens will not
dare to favor our adversaries. The rains of au
tumn will come, and lingering around the capital
the Prussians, far from their homes, alarraad,
harrassed and pursued, will ba decimated by our
arms.
"By fact and by nature it is not possible that the
geaius of France will be clouded forever; th t the
great nation will allow itself to take a place under
neath the domination of 600,000 men. Let us then
rise up en matue and let ns die rather than submit
disgracefully to dismemberment. Through all our
diSHHters, and under tbe stroke of ill-fortune, there
remains for us the sentiment of the unity of France
and tbe indissolubility of tbe Republic. Paris as.
serfs most gloriously again that immortal motto
which also calls again upon all France "Vive la
Nation! Yivela Republique! tine et indivisible!"
London, Oct. 0 Special to the New York
World. A correspondent at Boulogne-eur-Mer teU
egraphs as follows: There is no doubt that Bazaine
is cordially co-operating with the governmental
Tours and Trochu at Paris. The army of Lyons is
aavancmg Dy way ot jNancy to relieve isazaine. ic
was the right wing of this array which had the
battle with the Baden troops on Thursday.
It is reperted that Bismarck has telegraphed to
the Italian government at Florence relative to the
landing of Garibaldi in France and the formation
of an Italian legion. The reply was telegraphed to
Bismarck that the Italian government disavows all
official responsibility fr the action of her indivi
dual supjects.
London, Oct. 9. Advices from Compelgne say
that the town has been stripped by the Prus ians.
McMahon will be unable to bear removal for seve
ral weeks.
Tours, Oct. 9. Charles W. May, of Paris, for
merly of New York, and William W. Reynolds, of
New York, furnish the following account of a trip
in a balloon from Paris, which place they left at
the same time with Gambetta. both balloons having
risen at eleven A. M. on Friday. When about HI J
yards up the wind died away, the balloon remain
ing stationary over a Prussian camp. Musketry
and cannon were fired at the aeronauts, the whiz of
the bails being distini tlv heard. The Prussians
also used fusees, endeavoring to set the balloon on
fire. Ballast was thrown out and the balloon moved
gently away.
Duiing the trip, which lasted five hours, several
attempts were made to land, but the presence of
Prussians in the vicinity compelled them to throw
out ballast and rise again. They finally landed at
Koye, in the department of the Sonlme, where
they were warmly received by the people, on ac
count of their being Americans. They lost sight of
Gambetta's balloon about three o'clock on Friday.
It landed at Mont Dedier, and they were joined by
M. Gambetta at Amiens, whence they continued
their journey by special train with him to Tours.
Along the route Gambetta was enthusiastically
welcomed by the people. Tbe balloons were to
have left two days sooner, but were prevented by
lack of wind. May and Reynolds report that the
Parisians are determined in their defence of the
city, which is quiet and orderly. The voyagers add
that it is impossible to capture the city, except
through famine. The appearance of Paris is much
as usual. The shops are open daily, but closa
earlier than before the siege, as do also the cafes.
The Garde Nationale la constantly drilling and is
full of desire to fight to the last. Louis Blanc and
many other persons of distinction came to see Gam
betta, and the Americans in Paris bads farewell to
May and Reynolds.
Their balloon was private property and was con
ducted by Ue Uevilliard. a French marine oiUier,
whose coolness and skill is much lauded. There
were pigeons in the balloon, which have been let
loose to return to Paris. The Americans by this
balloon brought Paris journals of October 7, which
notice the intended departure on that day of two
balloons. One Journal calls the attention of the
government to the fact that an American general,
asserted to be in Paris, means to defeat the Prus
sians and cut off their supplies, and with 30,000 cav
alry could easily accomplish this.
The official military report of October 6 shows
that all is quiet around Paris, save toward the park
of St. Cloud, where tbe guns of Mont-Valerian
have caused the Prussians considerable loss. Ar
rangements have been made to erect shelter along
the ramparts for the National Guard watching at
night. Near St. Denis, General Bellemere has just
cansed the occupation in sufficient force of the
semi-circular Intrenched camp, rendering that side
of the city impregnable.
Tbe diplomats still remaining at Paris met at the
Papal Nuncio's to examine the condition they are
placed in by the refusal of Count Bismarck to per
mit them to send out couriers unions their dis
patches are opened, to which the diplomats unani
mously refused to accede, and this is to be signified
to Bismarck, and if he persists the diplomats will
be forced to suspend all communication with their
respective governments.
Mr. May saw Mrs. Washburne, who was well.
Many attempts have been unsuccessfully made
by special correspondents, to leave Paris, to send
out dispatches.
Tbe voyage of Gambetta from Paris, was full of
adventure. His balloon came to the ground Jast
outside the w alio of the city, and rising again passed
slowly over the Prussian lines, and came down again
ear Creil. They here saw Prussians and were
forced to throw out ballast, travelling sacks and
shawls, and rose slowly again, a shot just grazing
the hair of Gambetta. Near Ment Dedier, the bal
loon oame down amongst trees and was torn, and the
party got a conveyance and weut to Amiens. Tbe
Prussians were just on the other side of the woods
in which they landed.
Garibaldi arrive! before he was expected. An
officer ottered to escort him with his troops, but
Garibaldi replied that he was not accustomed to
an escort but added Hiat hs hoped to mset that
officer again on the field of battle, helping to drive
the enemy from the Republic. Garibaldi th-m
went to tne prereoture, wnere, tnougu uiuuu i
tigued, he received the members of the government
aud prefect. At that moment a battalion of
Francs-tireurs, loudly cheering, entered the yard
of the prefecture, demanding Garibaldi to review
them, and shouting "Vive Garibaldi" and "Vive
la Republique," aud requested M. Ulals Blsom to
give Garibaldi an embrao for the battalion. Cre
uileux delivered a patriotio discourse and tbe
crowd separated, shouting for Garibaldi and tbe
Republic.
Before the battalion left Garibaldi made a brief
speech to them, in which he said: "Wa shall mset
s gain on the battlefield to rid France of the in
vader." Ykmsailles, Oct. 8, via Berlin Tbe proclama
tion ot the Paris government, dropped by a ballom
fcLd lound by the (ieruiim. Is n follow: "fue

an attack by 12on Prussians. The Prefect, Anatole
Lafarge, bade the people rise rn masse and defend
the place, anu then assembled laborers and armed
them from tbe gunsmith shops and marched outride
the city. Barr(cad n were raised near the cnal,
which were held for five hours against the Incessant
attacks of the Prussians, who retired with severe
lots to Rlbccourt. The townsmen also suffered se
verely and the Prefect was wounded.
