IUt A ITnlro.
The Young Men's Christian Association,
through the liberality of the basin ess men of
Philadelphia, will open to-morrow morning,
for the rise of young men of Philadelphia, a
new library of five thousand volumes, includ
ing the latest publications in all departments
of literature, history, travels, and religion.
Arrangements havo been perfected by
which tie students of the Woman's Medical
Hospital, situated on College avenue, above
Ridge road, can attend the medical lectures at
the Pennsylvania Hospital daring the present
month, and it may be for a longer time.
The dog pound will be removed on next
Monday from its present location on Corin
thian avenue, in the Fifteenth ward, to the
sew location on the Lamb Tavern road, near
the City Hospital.
About midnight on Tuesday, a disturb
ance occurred at Washington avenue and
Twentieth street, between a number of young
men. Pistols were fired, and unfortunately
one of the balls took effect in the abdomen
of George Firth, aged 1(5 years, who was
standing on the sidewalk, and not partici
pating in the fight. The wound is considered
a dangerous one by the physician at the hos
pital, where Firth now is. His residence is
at No. 2130 Alter street.
Charles Lutz, employed in the bakery at
No. 1343 South street, was accidentally shot
by a pistol in the foot yesterday morning, by
a fellow-workman. The proprietor of the
bakery had left a pistol in the cellar, and while
one of the workmen was handling it the load
was discharged, inflicting a painful wound.
The injured man was taken to the Pennsyl
vania Hospital.
The Board of City Trusts held a stated
meeting yesterday afternoon. Sixty ad
ditional pupils were admitted into the Oirard
College, 14 of whom were born in the old city
limits, and forty-six in other parts of Penn
sylvania. This increases the population of
the house to r0 pupils. A resolution was
passed "that hereafter when orphans reside
too far from the city to make their per
sonal presence convenient, the applicant
may appear before a judge of the county in
which he resides, or a justice of the peace,
and through their certificate, upon a printed
form to be furnished by the College for that
purpose, the name of such child to be placed
upon the record."
Authority was given for the Cadets of
the College, to the number of 150, and the
College Band, to join in the. nutting excur
sion of the children of the public schools at
the Park, on the 21st instant. A culvert was
authorized to be built under the interme
diate street between Chesnut and Girard
streets, and extending from Eleventh to
Twelfth street. Six of the eight houses now
being built at Sixth and Brown streets were
reported to have been leased. The resigna
tion of Professor F. A. Bregy, teacher of
French and Spanish in Girard College, to
take effect on the 31st of December, was re
ceived. Dr. Ernest Goodman was elected
Assistant Surgeon in the Wills Hospital, in
place of Dr. Allen.
Last night, between C and 7 o'clock, a
fire bro'ie out in the large saw and planing
mill of Mr. Daniel Maguire, N. W. corner of
Ridge avenue and College avenue, which was
attended with considerable loss. The flames
originated in the cellar of tho building, and
soon made such headway as to render it
almost impossible to check them. The alarm
box in the immediate neighborhood being out
of order, the firemen were prevented from
being early on the ground, and when they did
come the entire building was in flames. It
was quite a spacious one, over 100 feet long
on College avenue, with a frontage of some
40 feet on Ridge avenue. It was shaped
something in the form of the letter L; was
four stories high, and stored with valuable
machinery and materials.

LAST NIQHT'S DESPATCHES.
THE BATTLE NEAB ORLEANS FIRST REPORTS
CONTRADICTED A COMPLETE PRUSSIAN VIC
TORY THE FRENCH ABANDON THE CITV
ACTIVE MOVEMENT OF TROOPS.
Tours, Oct. 12. Messengers who were
sent to Orleans yesterday, where a battle was
going on, have returned. They make the
following report: The French were Jin
much smaller force than the Prussians, and
were literally crushed by their superior artil
lery, and driven back into the suburbs of the
town. Some barricades had been erected
there, and our forces took advantage of the
shelter these afforded. The Papal Zouaves
and Mobiles behaved most courageously, but
the regular troops fled at almost the first fire.
None of the regular troops made much
resistance; many threw away their arms in
their flight.
The Prussians opened fire on the town
after the French defeat, and owing to the
barricades many fires occurred. The railway
depot was destroyed in this way, as well as
many other large establishments.
At last accounts the people of fcyons were
flying in all directions. At a late hour last
evening the Prussians had pushed Bouth to
Beaugency and Mean, beyond Paris, and it
is feared that the Papal Zouaves will be sur
rounded and captured. The other French
troops in that neighborhood are in good
position, and heavy reinforcements were sent
forward to them during the night. It is re
ported that some heavy guns have also gone
forward from Bourges.
The French troops at Beaugency and Meun
are excellent. They are composed chiefly of
National Guards and Mobiles, and they are
determined to resist to the last. In view of
the urgency of the case, General Garibaldi
left Tours this morning for the field. There
is a great movement of frano-tireurs. Troops
of all kinds are pushing to the front with all
despatch.
The government has repeated its determi
nation to retaliate for all Prussian atrocities.
If the municipal authorities of Ablis are exe
cuted, an equal number of Prussian prisoners
win ue snot.
London, Oct. 12. The French fleet has
been sighted off Heligoland. The authorities
at Altona and other ports have been warned
to remove outer buoys and lights of their
harbors, to prevent surprise.
The United States steamer Plymouth has
arrived at Kiel, though that port is ostensibly
closed by blockaders. Other American men-
of-war are expected there.
Tours, Oct. 12. Official reports from
' Beaugency state that the Prussians entered
Orleans last night. J. he French forces are
on the left bank of the Loire. They received
to-day heavy reinforcements, including tea
Iptterien nf re! 1 artillery.
No news has been received from Paris to
day. A balloon expedition is preparing here
for an attempt to descend into Paris.
Signor Tinppoli, Grand Master of the Free
Masons of Italy, who is to superintend the
organization of Italian volunteers, has arrived
in Tours.
Gambetta has given orders, that complete
returns of the armed forces of France be made
to his department. He has also sent a num
ber of young, energetic men into the pro
vinces to organize military movements, but
with instructions not to meddle with politics.
The journals Gazeltede France and V Union
publish an anti-republican address from Count
de Chambord to the people of France.
The Government denies the report that
Count Palikao has been asked to resume com
mand of the army at Lyons.
The Moniteur to-day prints a letter of
thanks from Gambetta to the Americans, May
and Reynolds, who presented to the Govern
ment the balloon in which they escaped from
Paris.
Florence, Oct. 12. Lieutenant-General
La Marmora entered Home yesterday, and
was received with hearty demonstrations of
welcome by the people.
Brussels, Oct., 12. The report that the
Prussian Minister at Brussels had been re
called, which has been lately extensively pub
lished, is untrue.
An enthusiastic meeting was held at Mech
lin yesterday to protest against the deposition
of the Pope. The Archbishop of Mechlin
presided, and among the participants in the
proceedings were the Archbishops of Buffalo
and Calcutta. The protest was unanimously
adopted.
PARIS.
How the Great City la to be Treated.
The Zeitller (German) Cirrexpotidence
writes as follows: Ever nearer draws the
time when the question will be put categori
cally to the city of Prris whether it chooses
to be treated as an open town or a fortross.
Unfortunately the people of Paris have not
yet, as it seems, become fully conscious of
the importance or this question. They seem
not only to be possessed with the illusion
that they can be treated as the inhabitants of
a half fortress, half open town, nay single
corporations, as for example the
academy, even go so far as
to claim for themselves severally an
exceptional position. If the city of Paris
holds fast to her part as a fortress, then shn
must be prepared to share the fata of Stras
burg, and, in fact, to bury her defenders
under her ruins. It is impossible that the
German armies should not take Paris, and
it is just as impossible that we should love
the houses of Paris better than the blood of
our soldiers. As we learn from trustworthy
sources, the heavy siege train is already on
its way to Paris. It even appears that we
shall neither take the walls of Paris, nor
M. Rochefort's barricades, by storm; but we
shall only back the language of reason and
of hunger by the very impressive speech of
German artillery.
A German who escaped from Paris on the
14th nit., in a letter to the Berlin Cross
Gazette says:
Who now rules in Paris it is hard to say.
Certainly neither Trschu nor the Provisional
Government, with Jules r avre and Kochefort:
neither the National Guards nor the "Red"
Communists, although, indeed, the latter
take the lead. The men who still nominally
exercise authority are influenced by the sav
age masses, and if perchance two tolerably
numerous crowds should assemble before
the Hotel de Ville who wanted some change,
the desires of the mob which clamored the
loudest and was the most audacious would
be acceded to. The National Guard are not
altogether inclined for war, and many of
my French acquaintances assured me in con
fidence that it was impossible for Paris to hold
out long. One of the greatest dangers has
not presented itself, viz., the Beds, as they do
do not feel themselves strong enough to imi
tate their Lyons brethren. When, however,
the struggle before the walls has once com
menced, and when want and privation appear,
the parties within the city will begin their
strifes, in spite of all conciliatory efforts.
Whatever may be said, even though the pre
sent government should deceive the people
as grossly as the empire did, Paris is scarcely
provisioned for two or three weeks. Thou
sands and thousands have left the city, but
strange Mobile Guards and the inhabitants
of the surrounding districts within ten or
twelve miles have eoine in, so that tho popu
lation still numbers about two millions.
It is true that in the Jardin des
Plantes there are a multitude of
sheep, but there really are 120,000 for
which in a few days there will be no more
food; they will be devoured by two millions
of people in three days. So with the oxen in
the Bois de Boulogne, which obviously,
unless they are previously starved, will only
meet the normal demand for beef for a few
days. Already the daily demand for salt,
fuel, milk, vegetables, and especially lighting
materials, cannot be satisfied. Paris without
gas, without sufficient oil and tallow, without
lamps, without newspapers (for paper is
lacking), without news from without, Paris
the frivolous, pleasure-seeking, enjoyable,
exposed to privations of all kinds, is no
longer Paris. It is a Sparta, but inhabited
not by Spartans but by luxurious Corinthians,
or rather, looking to the much-used expres
sion, "Seine Babal," by Babylonians.
The country round Paris, according to
other reports, is also in a lamentable condi
tion, all means of earning a living being cut off
from the remaining population. A letter
from St. Maur, in the Cologne Gazette, says
the priests go about with troops of laboring
men to seek bread. Several of these unfor
tunates have for days had no nourishment,
and beg at the German outposts, or devour
raw vegetables. The peasants say fearful
agitation prevails in Paris, that a guillotine
has been erected, and that terrorism has set
in. This is of course an exaggeration, bat it
shows the alarm and panic which exist. A
letter from Corbeil says weeping women and
children are everywhere to be seen, all means
of subsistence having been sent to Paris.
The same is the . case in the entire neigh
borhood. XOTES OF THE WAR.
"DYING IN THE LAST DITCH."
The London 7w points out that the wise
resolution by which the heroic- garrison of
Strasburg concluded their memorable defense
ought to be a lesson to France and to her
Dresent Government, tracing out the limits
beyond which resistance ceases to be a duty
and hnnma a follv and a crime. General
Uhrich and the soldiers and citizens under'
his orders did all that could be expected of
men all that true patriotism and military
honor could demand; but tney stopped short
of any unavailing deed of despair. The
alternative lay between a capitulation and a
butchery. The brave men chose the better
part. Their honor was safe, and they could
i ny be said ot Tou); tue same, we hear, of
Montmedy. Those who really knew bow to
fight knew also when to yield.
thb spoils.
The StaaU Anzeiger publishes the follow
ing account of the capture of men and mate
rial by the German armies since the begin
ning of the wpr:
Tie losses of the enemy and the prizes of
the German armies in the present campaign,
not yet pf two months duration, exclasive of
killed and wound n, are: One marshal, 3'J
generals, 32.r(5 officers, 104,750 men, and
14,000 wounded in Sedan; 10,280 horses, at
least rG eagles,102 mitrailleuses. G!0 field and
fortress guns, over 400 standards, several
pontoons, magazines, railway trains; also an
almost innumerable mass of arms, munitions,
dress and equipment articles, forage and
provisions. To this enormous total the
prizes taken at Toul and Strasburg have now
to be added.
THE SURRENDER OF 8TRASBURO.
The Lendon Daily Neicn says: The great
French fortress has fallen, and the fast
friends of France need not be sorry that its
resistance is at an end. Its gallant defenders
bad discharged their duty. If the people of
every town in France had done as much ac
cording to their means as the citizens of
Strasburg, if every military body in France
bad exhibited the steady endurance of its
garrison, a German host would not at this
moment encompass the capital, and Paris
would not look in vain for an army to succor
and relieve her. Well have they borne their
share in the burdens of the war, and it was
time for them to decline a contest that had
become hopeless. In the name of humanity
we may rejoice that this siege . is over, and
that it has ended in a surrender.
Bismarck's policy.
The Daily Ncxts observes that Count Bis
marck is apparently resolved to fight it out
upon bis present line if it lasts all the winter.
Germany has deliberately counted the cost.
She has weighed every ingredient of the pos
sible sacrifice, and has calmly decided that it
must be borne. The Neies confesses that it
does not see any sufficient assurance that the
French have made up their minds with equal
deliberation and equal firmness. They seem
rather to be drifting about for a principle and
a policy. We cannot wonder if the Germans
take into consideration the fact that their
enemy is of fitful mood and apt to be blown
about by every gust of sentiment or fortune,
and feel bound to require practical guarantees
ngainst the result of altered moods and sud
utn counsels in their enemy. France refused
the armistice because it seemed to involve
unpalatable conditions of peace. Germany
is only the more resolved not to conclude a
peace which would have the essential attri
butes of a mere armistice.
THE ALLEGED PRUS8S AN OUTRAGES.
Four English gentlemen, newspaper corre
spondents and surgeons, who have followed
the campaign from Forbach to Sedan, have
sent home an explicit denial of the charges
made against the German troops, in a letter
of a Correspondent of the PaU Mali Gazette,
as to outrages on women and the spoliation
of property. The writers sav: "We
feel bound to give the most unqualified
contradiction to the statements of the
writer in the PaU Mall Gazette. We
have found want, suffering, and misery
enough wherever we have turned, but we
have never yet met, or even heard of, a
single instance of personal violence offered
to the peasantry, a single instance of outrage
towards women, or a single instance in which
a farm-house has been robbed of more than
its stray fowls and fruit. Amid all the hor
rors which have been going on around us,
we talk among ourselves of the kindness, for
bearance, and singular honesty with whioh,
considering all the circumstances, the Prus
sians have behaved towards the people and
property of the towns and districts through
wh ion they have passed. Independent tes
timony to the same effect is quite conclusive
on this subject.
THE ACCIDENT AT MONT BLANC.
Further Particular of the Disaster f Sep.
lemoer o tt eeovery or tne uoaiea.
A "Tourist" writes to the London Times of
the 20th nit. regarding the late accident on
Mont Blanc: Having recently visited Cha
mouni, where I obtained information from
the most reliable sources as to the recent loss
of eleven persons on Mont Blano, the follow
ing account may be valuable to persons con
nected with the unfortunate travellers and to
others. On the 5th of September, Dr. Bean,
of Baltimore, another American gentleman,
and Mr. George McCorkindale, of Scotland,
accompanied by three guides and five porters,
left Chamouni, and on the next day reached
the summit; but before they bad pro
ceeded far on their return a storm
arose which caused apprehensions to the
watchers below for the safety of the party',
too well founded, for they were not seen
again alive. As soon as possible an attempt
was made to recover the bodies, which, owing
to the unsettled weather, was unsuccessful,
and it was feared that no effectual search
would be practicable this year; but a favor
able change occurring on the 17th, eighteen
guides started, and, after a perilous effort,
discovered on the following day the bodies of
Dr. Bean, Mr. McCorkindale, and three
porters, at a spot which appeared from below
to be not far from the "Petits Mulets." With
much labor and difficulty their remains were
brought down to Chamouni on Monday, the
l'.'th inst. Since I left Chamouni I have
been informed that the remaining bodies
have been found further down the
mountain. A veteran guide, whose last
ascent was with Mr. Freshtield, stated to me
that the sufferings of the unhappy party must
have been of short duration, as they could not
have survived five minutes after being over
taken by the hurricane, whioh suffocated them
with snow. It is said that Dr. Bean left Ame
rica for Switzerland on a scientific mission,
but be seems to have been ill-prepared for the
ascent. On the previous day he requested the
landlord of the Hotel Mont Blano to send for
a notary, and a will Veing drawn up he signed
it. Mr. McCorkindale was starting, wearing
an ordinary high-crowned hat, but the land
lord induced him to put on a cap (with flaps
to cover the ears) which he lent him. The
guides demurred to making the ascent on
aocount of the unsettled state of the weather,
but, unfortunately, yielded to the wishes of
the travellers. The landlord of the Hotel
Mont Blanc stated that he had telegraphed
to the American and English Consuls at
Geneva, and received a reply from the for
mer, but not from the latter, and Mr. Mc
Corkindale having left no luggage, he was
unable to communicate with that gentleman's
relatives, he having given his address as
"Scotland." A suggestion was made by a
traveller that a telegram should be sent to
the Frovost of Edinburgh, requesting him to
trace the relations of the deceased and com
municate the catastrophe to them. He had
not left a passport or any papers at the
hotel. -
