DIED. 0e26 !Ars, FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE LEITER EROM.PARIS. (Correspondence of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.] PARIS, Friday, Oct. 15.- 7 ,The Emperor has left Paris for Compiegne, *here we hear that his Majesty occupies himself with tae recreas don of shooting. The Empress, as every tele gran:mill announce to , you,is - spending her time in festivals at Venice, and in Cleopatra .like processions through the Dardanelles and the BoSphorus, which the - Rdlicial papers, as though eager to prove how, entirely of a plea.snrable,character are these pursuits, never cease assuring us . "have • no' political ob ject." • The public meanwhile, can not help thinking that,,the "dynasty': is taking;,) : , things very easy, and is either not aware, or determined not to see, that the ground on which it staff& is sinking away beneath its feet, and that, sub cinere do los°, it is in reality walking upon a volcano There can be no greater 'contrast, indeed, Utah, that which strikes us between the above occu pations of the two heads of the governmentami the feelings which are brewing and exploding all through the nation over which they profess to rule. Here in Paris, all the deputies of the radical democratic party are now assembled, with the avowed and openly-expressed design of consulting together how they can best suc 'coed in pulling the said dynasty to theground. There is no attempt at disguise in the matter. Open and irreconcilable war is the snot d'ordre of the party, ands() strong is the popular feel ing by which they are supported In the capi tal, that the chief difficulty of the deputies and leaders has been to know how to keep the pebple quiet, and prevent an insur rectionary movement taking place too soon, and before they are prepared for it. By dint of great exertions on their part, the project of a demonstration on the 26th inst. has now been definitively abandoned, even the 'll'crppd itself admit ting. at last the prudence and necessity of such abstention. A characteristic letter from Victor Hugo to the editor .of. the Slick; which appears this morning, dated from Brussels; where the old agitator is already hovering like a bird of prey on the frontiers—counsels the, same action. He was never in favor, he "says, of a popular manifestation on the day in question. Let no one, therefore, he urges, "descend into the streets" tthe French expression for "taking up arm.s") on the Olth. Let no pretext be af forded bi the Government by the people for employing force against right. Let the people only know how to contain themselves, and the Chassepots can do nothing. But it must be understood, be says, that ,the deputies are relieved from their oath - of allegiance to the Government, and those of the Left must de clare themselves to be so in the 'face of the nation. This he declares to be -the "moral and revolutionary" issue of the present crisis.' And then, as -a " last word," he adds: "When the day comes on which I. counsel insurrection—/ milt be there !" ThiS is plain speaking, with a vengeance. And that such language is and can be spoken and pub lished with'impunity, and apparently without power or courage any longer to , repress it, -Might, one would think, to tesoine thattack to the imperial shooting of pheasants and par tridges at Compiegne,and thegala days of our. pretty Empress along the fairy-like shores of the Bosphorus with her friend, the Sultan. But there are far worse and more serious symptoms of discontent and disaffection than such outpouringS as the above of men like Victor Hugo, though even these - latter be come dangerous in times so critical as the present. The newspapers are filled with let- ters of deputies of the Moderate liberal party, setting forth . the deplorable effects of the suicidal policy pursued by the Government in refusing to assemble the Chambers, and de liberately shutting its ears to and turning its back upon the loudly expressed wishes of the nation: The Emperor, they say, has gone off to Compiegne, taking all his ministers with him, like a parcel of clerkS, and there is pre paring, in contemptalike of his own promises and of the representatives of the people,to do, as usuacjust what " halikes, and neither more nor less. One deputy of the liberal, or tters - parti, 31. Guyot, writes to say that lie has just visited the whole, of of his constituency, "con- . sisting of an entirely rural district of one hun dred and eighty-four parishes/Mend that he -has- found'' there --the -" deepest -feeling,s- of-. irritation, roused by the fatal 'decree of the third of October prolonging the prorogation of the Chambers beyond constitutional limits, and aggravating that prorogation by fresh impertinences and illegalities." Nothing-can -now atop, -he -adds,- " the irresistible cur- rent of liberal aspirations." M. Gustave Fould; a member of the family so long devo ted to the Imperial dynasty, writes to say that among his constituents at Pau and the neigh borhood the "feeling of distrust grows strong er ' ‘ and stronger every day;" that the "situa tion is full of peril and the feeling of alarm universal," and that "no one can understand what the apathy and reluctance of the Gov ernment to make good its promises mean." This language is repeated over and over again, - mrd - shows - th - at - the colf - ntiy - is graaifally%wo - rk- - : - lug itself Up to a state of excitement and irri tation which will find dangerous vent when at last the Government is compelled to face its representatives and spokesmen on the 26th of next month. There is one announcement made which is not without its significance at the present mo ment., General Fleury has been appointed, as you are aware, to the embassy of Ituseia, and 'people have been wondering'that he ha.; not. yet left for his post.. The reason is now ex- - plained: The General leaves on the 27th inst., one day, that is, after the 26th, the day of the expected demonstration, and when his ger: 'vices Might be supposed to be (main wanted i 1 . as almost the last remaining survivor of the tend who perpetrated the first coop Meta& ` The dreadful loss of , human life which has , occurred by the collision between the mining population of the Aveyron and the military, though not directly connected with' political feeling, has greatly added to the intensity of the latter and to the 'popular - irritation against ,the Government. The ultra-democratic jour ;nab call it the, " Massacre of, A.ultin"--(the place where it occurred), , anffare using it as a • means of .stirritsg up fresh animosity. The public meetings in Paris have becoine so 'violent that notice'has been given of the in tention of the mithorities to put in force the law 'which arms themwith the power to , pro hibit such assemblies .when they see fit to do so. . • !' M. Sainte-Beuve, the celebrated writer;aud a PHILADELMIA, WEI)NEODAY, OCTOBER 27;1869. Senator, has just died. By his latest directiOn; -he forbids his body being taken to any church or any religious ceremony being performed over it.. It is to be carried (to-morrow) direct 'from his house to the cen4ete7 and there de posited in the grave.

"kit was," says that journal, " shortly alter an illness of the Prince Imperial. Fears had been entertained, that his life was in danger, and the • Emperor, who adores his son, was still haunted by the phantoms of the child's malady. 4 1.11'1 had had the misfortune," said His Majesty, "to lose hire t andif.l had been con --winced of the impossibility of having another direct heir, I should certainly have put 'into execution an extraordinary project. .t should have given France the privileges, liberties andinstitutions of ' a Republic ; I should have decided to become the first' citizen of my country, after having restored to it all that the necessities of policy have com pelled me to deprive it of for a time ; in a word, I should have rendered impossible,after me, any other form of government than the republicah; the only one which, wisely 'under stood and applied by an energetic Power,suits the temperament of the French people. But the dream niust be renounced, as a father has no right to destroy his son's prospects. I shall endeavor to find -the means of recon ciliating two principles which seem incompati ble—the Empire and Liberty., My, heirs will reign, and France will only lose a distinctive epithet, the name of a Republic." Victor lingo on the Crisis—A: Present Insurrection Discountenanced. 31. Victor Hugo has written the followiug letter to the Paris Slide: _,Baussme, Oct. 12.-39 Dear Friend and Former Colleague : I receive the 67ic/e. I read your article, which touches me, honors me, and surprises me. I thank you for giving me an opportunity of putting an end to a mis take. In the firstplace, I am a mere reader of the Reel. Ithought had said so plainly enough to make it unnecessary to repeat it. In the second place, I have not recommended,- and - do - not recommend any manifestation for the twenty-sixth of October. I have fully approved of the Rappel when' it called upon the members of the Left for a manifestation in which the people of• Paris could take part--a, demonstration essentially pacifie and-without arms, like the demonstra, dons of-the people of London in such a else, like the demonstration of 120,000 Femans at - Dublin a few days ago—that is what the Rap pel wanted. But as the Left holds aloof, the people must hold- aloof too. 'The people haven't a standpoint to go to - work. Therefore. no manifestation. Right is on the people's side : violence on the Government's side. Let us give no pretext to the Government tense ;violence against tight.- ~ On the 26th of. October no one must go down into the streets. T'he= obvious result of - the present state cifthiugs must be the abolition of the oath. A solemn declaration of the repreSentatives ' of the Left releasing themselves from the oath (i. e., the oath to the Emperor), in presence of the nation, that is the real issue of the crisis— the moral and revolutionary issue. It is pur posely I couple these two words. Let the peo ple abstain, and the Chassepot is paralyzed; let the representatives speak out, and the oath is abolished. These are the two recommenda tions I.wish to make, and as you ask me what my idea is, there it is. One word more : When I recommend an insurrection, I shall be there. But an this occasion I don't recommend one. I thank you for your eloquent appeal. I reply to it in haste, and shake your hand. VICTOR E[IIGO. The Tribune, commenting upon this letter, says: One point is remarkable in the letter of M. Hugo. He says impressively that the real issue of the crisis is the abolition of the oath. Give no pretext 'to the Government to kill ; keep out of the streets on the 26th, and await the moral and revolutionary issue—wait till the representatives of the Left legally assem bled release themselves from the Imperial oath in the presence of France. Such is the _counsel of the old Republican. Acting -on -it,- Paris refrained from a, demonstration yester- AlaY,o44„Will.probablv,bicleitslinie. TUE CIVIL WAR IN SPAIN. Terrific Fightinc•in the Streets of Sara- ges9a. From the Beo de Aragon.) The Captain-General having ordereclthe re _organization of the citizen.militia,...much agi tation-was noticeable in the-population;which Was increased by the entrance into the city of fiatty or fifty pnsoners belonging to the rebel parties of Pedrolla, and Gallur, in custody of the Civil Guard. At half-past two in the af ternoon barricades were erected, and the in surgents opened fire, which has lasted to the first hours of this morning, in the barrios of San Pablo, in which the people fired from the streets which met at the market, and from the Tower of San. Pablo, which they occupied very early in the afternoon. The fighting has been prolonged more in the parishes of San Miguel and La Magdalena, in which it commenced - at the same time as the an 'a blo, and lasted all the night with great inten sity up to 10 o'clock this morning, at which hour it ceased, the people, as we are told, re tiring by the port near the Tower of Bruil, from which point they crossed the. Ebro on pontoons. We cannot to-day give more de tails, but will try to do so to-morrow. Neither eau we report the casualties, which, we be lieve, are very many, and which we deplore, for the blood shed is Spanish blood, and the blood of Spanish Liberals. On both sides the combat has been parried on with the valor appropriate to Spaniards. At midday a bat• tilion of Ingenieros arrived, and more forces are expected. At 3.30 this afternoon alarm has been reproduced by some discharges made from the high part of the Corso, but at six, the hour at which weelose this number, they have completely ceased. • It was 111.30, and not 10 o'clock in . the morn ing that the barricades raised in the, Plaza de San Miguel, Calles del Heroism° and Cadena, and Puerto del Duque de la Victoria, wore taken by thetroops, after a most protracted struggle in which both on one, side and the other great valor was exhibited. At 3.30 in the afternoon the Captain-General, accom panied by some of his staff and a small escort, passed through the Plaza de Salanaera, where some shots wore fired at hirn by the people. •This gave rise to a, renewal of the comlbat for a quarter of an hour. , The rest of the after-. noon was passedtranquilly; and also the night. 'The troops of the garrison were reinforced by two battalions of Ingenieros, ono hattalio* of Oai,adores and a squadron_ of cavalry. In the first hours`of the morning some prisoners were taken. Those taken during the, combat exceeded one hundred and fifty. The accounts 'we have heard respecting the. persons said to, be at the head of the moveinent tire so very ' ontradictory that we decline for: toolay mak- OUR wnoup COUNTRY. ing any allusion to them. During the combat some paisanos from the neighboringZpopula-' tions made for the city, but forces of cavalry convenientlypLaced by Captain-General tas sels effectually impeded - their entrance. The . army had eighteen killed zand seventy fly wounded. .Of these; ;six are officers and two captains. Of the people,twen ty-two Inked and nine wounded were .pieked up in the streetsand carried to therlYil pital, imong vi them some women and Children; innocent victims of thiistruggle. This is Without taking count of the u - acnown ' hers of dead and wounded in private.-houses. During yeSte'rday afternoon and this.morning the people have passed andrepassed; through all the capital t visiting particularly the princi: pal peints or the struggle.-where the destruc-. tion was the greatest. The affair is ended,and the militark tribunal will begin its labors. enlist defier the Insurgents. Thel*La r - Timis corregpondait says : , The statements whigh reach vs concerning the events which have taken place in the town of Walls, give a highly-colored and per- . haps not. altogether faithful account• of - the acts committed by the insurgents, When re duced to the strict limits of truth they will be found bad enough. The f , terrorists_," forsuch' it is stated. the members of the Republican. Club call themselves, begun their operations by killing in the street two of the wealthiest proprietors in the place. After this, under the pretence of searching for arms, they sacked their houses and burned their furni ture on the public square. A notary named Gay was served in the same manner. From Senor Prat, a lawyer and a member of the De yartmental Council, they took am of $3,000, . and burned all his papers, including a number of important notarial acts. The. manufactory of Senor. Castellet was set, on fire, and the house of Senor Arnet, the lawyer, was also pillaged and burned to the ground. Then, learning that its owner was concealed in a neighboring house, the band hunted him out, and, after 'dragging him through the streets,, put him to deariii by shooting Idly,. Senor Ferrero, another lawyer, was next taken out and murdered in cold blood. A scene that would have moved any but the hard est hor,rts followed these atrocities. Senor Dasca, a notary,who had rendered him self obnoxious, had prudently taken to flight, knowing the fate that was in store for hint. The terrorists surrounded his house, but on entering it found only 3lme. Dasca and, her son, an only child. They demanded money from her, and obtained a sum of about $l,OOO. hlot satisfied with this,they insisted on getting - more, and .as she was unable to comply with their demands they took young Dasca and dragged him through the streets to murder him. The unfortunate mother threw herself between her boy and his assassins,dovered him with her body, and told them that to kill him they must first kill her. The scene is described as hdving been tragic and touching in the ex treme. The supplications of the wretched mother were at last successful, and she was allowed 'to carry her boy home with her. Both are said to be still suffering. from the sliock of this terrible scene. The house, of Senor Gran, the notary, was next, pillaged and, burned. Then followed the sock and destruc tion of the residence of Senor Houes, notary and advocate. Senor Houes had concealed hiniself with a soul of about $6OO. He was smoked out of his hiding-place, dragged through the streets and shot. Senor Onafre, a merchant. was shot while lief was seated at his supper : . "..abic. Senors Podia lips were killed in the same manner. Fifteen of the richest merchants were stripped of everything they tad; and their houses completely gutted. _ - -One=of.the bankers oL the _town;_.M.._ Mon casse, W£lB visited by three chiefs of the. band, who went to him to demand arms in the name of the sovereign. As soon as they . entered the house they demanded money. =He handed to two of the'chiefs a sum amounting to nearly 81,1 1 00. The third chief guarded the door. W eri he learned that /us two comrades had received the above EOM he went and de nounced them as thieves, _ and then_ consist ently got three other terrorists to join and to go and exact a similar sum. The scoundrels having exorted the amount, went to a cabaret to drink and gamble. They were killed while thus engaged, but the banker did not succeed in recovering his money. 31Anion,Oct, 26, 1869.

Yesterday - we were favored with a call from on bright-eyed, ruddy-cheeked, intelligent t3cotelflamie.of seventeen, who ' has just es eaped from Salt Lake City, and is on her way back to her parental home in Scotland— Her mane is Emily Jane Kane: Shaisa native of Glasgow, her father,'formerly , a respect:" able stevedore- .. of that' ilk, is dead,. and Emily , and:., her • widowed, mother, among • 'numerous others, were converted about two years ago to'Mormonism by some of the proselyting elders of.the sect,,, Glowing pictnres were-presented to the eon verts, especially to the comely:and 'marriage able damsels, of the comforts arid delights of a life in • the terrestrial paradise of the t3aints ,in Utah, and the young girl, by dint of hard, work and strict economy, was enabled to save enough of her hard earnings to start, with a steerage full of fellow converts, on the 28th of • July, for the promised land. The passage was, without adventure. They arrived' in New York City, on the 12th of August, and in Salt' Lake City on the 21st. ki• Vehicles met them at the station,and Emily found an elaerly saint of 60 seated by her side, who told her that he had a good home and wanted her for a wife, and would take good care of her if she would have him. Naturally staggered by this abrupt proposal, she begged a little time for reflection,rind, on arriving at the city, found that the gray-headed Lothario had already three wives and numerous chil dren. - .Emily and her fellow-voyagers opened their eyes to the existence of polygamy. On the first Sunday after her arrival. she heard the great Brigham preae.h a sermon, in which he said that a man who had not at least three wives would surely be damned ; and that every man ought to have from seven to ten to be sure of salvation. Emily, who has the stuff of a true heroine in her composition, soon resolved to escape from the wretched life before her at all haz ards. She fled to a camp of United States sol diers near the city and threw herself on their protection: The soldiers contributed enough to pay hFr passage to Omaha; then she sold the few spare garments in her little bundle'and got money to pay herfare to this city. Yesterday she walked the piers, looking for some vessel bound to the fatherland. The poor girl's appearance attracted the notice of Harbor Master James M. Thompson, a kind hearted official, who at once took a fatherly interest in her. He went to his friends, Capt. Edward, Howard and Capt. C. P. Raymond. Together they called on Messrs. Miller 84 Con ger, Gen. Abram Duryee, and other South street merchants, who promptly contributed funds to pay Emily's experises to Scotland, and to-day she 'sails,in the steam packet. Wie asked her why she did not remain this country. She said, in reply: «I;want to go , back to tell our people the truth about Mor monism—to let them knovr what a-vHilimpos tor it Emily, we think, will prove a sharp. thorn in the side of the missionaries.-IV..

He will present an entirely new programme, including some wonderful 'feats. Hermann hears the reputation of being the most adroit practitioner of sleight of band in the world, and we are assured that the new tricks which he has prepared for his eihibi-' tion here are very much more marvelous than any ever attempted by him during his former engagements in this city. The tact that he has engaged as large a building as the Aca -:demy of, Dlusie - proves - tbat his agents have confidence-in his-powers- and-his popularity. - —DUprez & Benedict's minstrels, at the, Seventfr - Streetr--Operar-Honsergivwan , excel. lent minstrel performance every evening. —Mr. Isaac L. Rice, the young Philadel- Phia pianist, made his first appearance in • public since his return 'from Europe ' at the Academy of Music, last evening. The occa sion was a concert in aid of the funds of the _proposed_German Theatre, and-the-audience.. and not very interesting composition by which Mr. Nice "certainly, played with great elegance: His style, however, is marked by the academic manner of the Conservatory, • which is excellent .-s a foundation;-but the sooner Mr. Rice rids himself of the re straints of . his school and strikes out a method of his own, or rather the free method of the great masters of the piano outside of - the Conservatory, the sooner will he become a popular player in the conceit room. A Con certo, in three movements, composed by him self;-was a better illustration of the thorough ness of his musical education. The c — ifilnestral Writing, especially in the second movement, • was really worthy of a master, and it afforded great pleasure, although the orchestradicarcely did itustice. -In the second part Mr. Bice played Liszt's arrangement of the overture to William Tell, in an admirable manner. The other pieces of-the concert, with the exception. of those Of the orchestra; which showed innf ficient rehearsal, - were very agreeable. Mr. .• Emil.Gastel sang songs by Schumann l .Pressel and Meyerbeer with' admirable foehng and method, his voice being a . high barytone, - rather than a tenor. The Smngerbunci, the Miennerchor and the mixed chorus of the Harmonic Society, each sang a capital piece, and Mr. Wenzel Kopta, played •Pa,gamni's "Witches' Dance," • and another piece for an - encore, in a very beautiful manner.. In all re sPects the concert was • a real treat to all who attended it. —Miss Anna Jackson, N 0.131.6 Pine street, has issued the following prospectus of her parlor concerts for the coming season: "The tenth season of the Parlor Concerts may be said to open under much more favor able circumstances. the String Qnartett, corn posed of the same artists as when formed a 3 , eat ago, viz.: Messrs.
