'Do you see," he said to trie, "those
four closed windows above that balcony'
During the. (list days of that terrible
August of 1870 I was called Ihero for
case of apoplectic stroke. It was the
residence of Colonel Jouve, a cuirassier
of tho first empire, his head turned w ith
glory anil patriotism, who at the begin.
uing of the war had come to lodge In
Champs Klysees, In an iiparlinent with a
balcony, to bo ptctent at the triumphal
return of our troops, l'oorold mauITlic
news of AVisscnibourgcaineto him as he
was rising from Ihe table. As he rend
the nanio of Napoleon at the foot of tliv
bulletin of defeat he fell stricken.
"1 found tho old cuirassier stretched
upon lltu carpet, his faco flushed and
dull, as If from Iho blow of a club.
Erect, ho must havo been very tall;
prostrate, he seemed Immense. Fine
features, super!) teeth, a llccce of wlilto
curls, eighty years which seemed sixly.
Xcar hhn knelt his granddaughter, all
In tears. She resembled him. Side by
side they seemed two beautiful Greek
medallions, struck from tho same die.
The one, antique, carth-slalned, with
the contour a little worn, the othcr; re
splendent and clear, with all Iho bril
liancy and velvety luster of the now im
pression. "The grief of Ihis child touched me.
Her father was on the staff of Mae Million
and the linage of this old man strelihcd
before her worked In her mind another
Image not less terrible. I reassured her
as best I could, but at heart I held little
hope. We had n caso of out-and-out
paralysis of one side, and at eighty that
Is not readily recovered from. During

in the samo state of mottonlo&s stupor.
It was at this moment that tho news of

poor deaf mute In the grasp of his para
lysis, hut that evening, on approaching
his bed, I found no longer the same man.
The eye, was nearly clear, the tongue less
heavy. Ho had tho strength to smile at
me, and stammered twice:
" 'Vio-to-ry?" '"'
" 'Yon, colonel, a great victory I'
"And ns I gave him the details of the
splendid success of MaoMahon I saw his
featul-es relax.
"When I went out tho young girl was

door. Sho was sobbing.

all the moves, 'Now, there's where
they're going. That's what they'll do..'
And his predictions wcru always real

took cities, gained battles vie novcr

man was insatiable.' Kach ddy when'I
arrived 1 learned of a How 'feat of arms.
Doctor, wo have taken Maycnc'e,'
the young girl would say, approaching
me with a heartbroken sirille, and" I
heard through the door a joyous voice
which cried out to me: 'We're getting
on I We're getting on I In eight days we
shall enter Bcrlinl' At that moment the
Prussians were not more than eight days
from Paris. We questioned, at first
whether it would not bo better to re
move him to the country; but onru out
ot doors, tho statu of Franco would havn
revealed all to him, and I deemed him
still too feeble to be bewildered by his
great shock, to permit him to know the
truth. It was decided to remain.
"The first day of the investment of
tho city 1 went tip'to their apartment, I
recollect, very much moved with that
anguish of heart which was brought to
us all by the closed gales of Paris; the
battle under the walls, oursubtitbs be
came frontiers. I found Iho good man
jubilant and proud.
" 'Kb bleu,' ho said to me, 'the siege
has commenced, then.'
"1 looked at him stupefied.
" 'What, colonel, you know?"
"Ills granddaughter turned toward
me:
"Ahl i'es, doctor, it Is the great
news. The siege of Berlin has .com

such a tranquil little air. How could he
suspectVanythlng? Ho could not Jiear
the cannon of tho forts. This unfor
tunate Paris, desolate and upturned, he
could not, see! What lie did see from
his bed was a panel of the Are do Tri
omphe, and In his room, about him, a
complete bric-a-brac of the first empire,
w ell calculated to maintain his illusions.
Portraits of marshals, engravings of
battles, the king of Homo in baby dress;
then the great stiff side-tables orna
mented with copper trophies, loaded
with imperial relies, with medallions,
bronzes, a fragment of the rock of St.
Helena under glass, various miniatures
of tho same lady, all becurled in ball
costume, with a yellow robe, mul ton
leg sleeves and clear eyes; and all this
the side-tables, tho king of liome, Ihe
marshals, the yellow ladies with the
high shoulders and short waists, of that
awkward stiffness which was the grace
of 1800 It was this atmosphere of vic
tories and conquests, even moie than all
that wo could say to him, that made the
bravo colonel bclievo so naively In the
siege of Berlin.
"From this time we found our mili
tary operations much simplified. Taking
Berlin was now only a matter of patience.
From timo to tlmo when the old man
worried too much a letter from his son
would bo read to him an Imaginary let
tor, of course, as nothing now entered
Paris, and as since Sedan the aides-de-camp
of MneMnhon hail been sent to a
fortress in Germany. You can imagine
tho despair of that poor child, without
news of her father, know ing him to be a
prisoner, deprived of everything, sick
perhaps, and herself obliged to make
him speak in joyous Jetters.alittleshort,
as a soldier on the Held would write, al
ways advancing into the conquered
country. Sometimes strength failed her;
weeks would pass wit-bout news. But
the old man grew restless and no longer
slept. Then there quickly arrived a let
ter from Germany, which sho came aud

ligiously, smiletUignKicantly, approved,
criticised, explained to us tho confused

that you are French,' he would say to
him. 'Bo generous with tho poor peo

recommendations, admirable preaching
on respect for the proprieties, tho polite

military honor for the use of conquer

to be imposed on the vanquished. On
this point I am bound to say bo was not.

,it was, I think, the Thursday of Bu.en-

"One evening as I came in the girl
came to mo very much troubled.
" 'To-morrow they enter,' she .said to
me.
"Was the door of the grandfather's
room op'on? Tho tact is on thinking of
It since T recall that he had that evening
an extraordinary expression. It is
probable that he had heard us. Only
we spoke of the Prussians, and he, good

"Poor rather Jotivcl He doubtless
llililglncd that we wished to prevent his
witnessing the naradc of our troops in
order to guard him from too great emo
tion, so he carefully refrained from
speaking of It lo any one, but 011 the
mnriow, at the very hour that the Prus
sian battalions advanced cautiously on
the long road which led from the Porte
Maillot to the Tulllerles, an upper win
dow was gently raised, and the colonel
appeared 011 Ihe balcony with his helmet
his great saber, his glorious old uniform
of. the cuirassiers Mllhaud complete. 1
still wonder what effort of will, what re
bound of life, thus put him upon his
feet and Into uniform. What Is certain
is that ho was there, erect behind tho
railing, astonished at finding tho iivenuo
so wide so still tho blinds of the
houses closed, Paris desolate as a great
pest house, flags everywhere; but, so
slngutar, all white with red crosses, and
no one to meet our soldiers.
"For a moment he could believe him
self mistaken. Hut no! down there be
hind the Arc do Triomphe there was a
confused noise, a black lino which ad
vanced in the rising light. Then little
by little tho spikes of the helmets
flashed, the Utile drums of Jena began
to beat, and under the Are do 1'FtoIle,
Its rythm marked by tho heavy tiampof
the sections and the clash of sabers
burst forth tho triumphal march of
Schubert.
"Then In the gloomy silence of the
place, there was heard a cry a terrible
cry 'To arms! To arms! The Prus
sians!' And the four Uhlans of Ihe ad
vance guard could see up there, on tha
balcony a tall old man stagger, and,
waving his arms, fall rigid.
"This time Colonol Jouve was indeed
dead."

Miux UaU was acady U.ic.1 with
about C,000 people, and several thous-1
and more formed a hugh fringe, as It ,
were, around the outside of this copious
RUdltoilum. The Governor, Mayor, j
President and Board of Directors of the 1
Exposition, Hon, John Young Brown, '
tho orator of tho day, and a few others j
inviicu oy 111c prcsiucut, occupieu niu
stage or rostum. Your correspondent
was honored witli a position upon tho
stage aud had a good- chance to study
the faces of a largo Louisvllc audience.
And right here I want to say that It was
a very handsomo anil intelligent gather
ing, and again, I saw at tho Exposition
on last Saturday, mora beautiful ladles,
well-dressed, well-behaved, and well
shaped than It was ever my pleasure to
witness befors in a crowd of tome 2C,
000 people, Indeed, if I were not a
married man well, I am dlsgresslug,
and will come back to Music Hall, whcio
we find that prayer lias been offcied by
the Uev. Dr. Broadtts, and that Mayor
Iteed has introduced Gov. Knott, who,
in a few very choice sciitencos upon tho
subject of the Power of Mind over Mut
ter, as illustrated by tho beautiful ex
hibits collected here, formally nnd offi
cially declared amid deafening appluitse,
the Southern Exposition for 1S8." open.
Col. Kelley then introduced Hoii. J.
Young Brown, who- delivered tho ora
tion for tlio occasion. He is a very fine
."poaker, with a commanding personal
appearance, and during tho course of
his address was frequently applauded.
He referred in feeling terms to General
Grant. In eulogizing tho result of
skilled labor and its direction, lie made
tho singular expression that ho "would
rather bo tho engineer of tho Brooklyn
bridge than Vice Presldcnt'of the United
States." Why he selected the Vice
President In connection with his com
parison was not explained. Tho whole
exorcises were short and impressive.
After hearty hand-shaking aud con
gratulations upon tho great success at
tending the opening, the stage w as taken
possession of by Damrc-eh's orchestra
of about fifty pieces, and ono of tlio fin
est concerts over listened to In this or
any other city was given. Another grand
conceit by tin; same orchestra, which, If
given in any opera-house, $1.00 admis
sion would be charged, attracted a huge
audience in the evening.
Never on opening day before, has an
exposition been ready. The Centennial,
after neatly three years of preparation,
failed to bo in shape on May 10, 1$"0, al
though her doors were at that time
opened. New Orleans' World's Fair was
worse yet postponed the date fifteen"
days, and should havo done so for an
other year to have gotten into proper
condition and training. Tho public
generally were greatly surprised at find
ing all exhibits In place, machinery run
ning, and attendance complete, at noon
Saturday, when the steam was turned
011.
Tho decorations are very e!aborate,and
Hags and banners of every nation on
earth are gracefully hung, and iloatlm,
from every post and pillar. Tlio "trade
mark" of each State, neatly executed,!
hung in Music Hall. The beautiful
park of some forty acres, with its small
lakes, pleasant walks, abundant shade
trees, and convenient scats, affords ii
very desirable retreat for the weary visi
tor.
It is estimated that fully 2.",000 pw
pin were In attendance Saturday, nnd
that about one-half were, citizens ot
Louisville. Karly In tho morning ex
cursinn trains began coming in, and
probably 10,000 people, who live at least
within a distance of ,",00 miles of this
city, did honor to the opening of the
Southern Exposition by attending. Be
It sail to tho credit of the management
that they refuse to open up on the Sab
bath, and yesterday (Sunday) was a day
of genuine rest, enjoyed by even body
but the poor newspaper correspondent.
One of the novel features of this Expos
ition is a newspaper display occupying
over tl.OOO square feet, where nearly all
the representative publications ot tho
United Slates aro on tile, and can be
examined or read by either visitors or
exhibitors. Nearly every visitor can
find ills homo paper on file.
