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

` 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

law 'which arms themwith the power to , pro

Louis lileepoloon Ittterriewed—lns Hopes
-0 - - for Ills Dynasty.,
4 , sThe journal Paris, in its political column,
reproduces the terms of a conversation which,
it says ! took place in 1867, at the time of the
Exhibition, 'between the Emperor of the
French and Mr. It—, the head of a United
States family with whom Louis Napoleon has
remained ever since his residence in America
on terms of affectionate intimacy. "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-

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-

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

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

To the Editor of the Nei°, York Times:
The following article appeared in to-day's
edition of the World:
"GRANT'S STOCK SPECULATIONS.
"Yesterday afternoon our reporter called on
George E. Stone, of the fain of Stone, Nichols
& Stonei - brolters ' --- No. 52 Wall street. It will
e remembered that they are the brokers.
-through—whom— esident
bought Government bonds on a. margin of
tour percent., became " in Wall street,
and sold out to Jay Gould at a handsome
profit. Mr. stone- saul that he had read the
statement in the ll'orld that the firm had
bought and sold,-stocks-for-General-Grant, but
he did not wish, to deny. it. . He 'dia. not wish_
-to say anything-about -the-matter-unless-called
upon to do so by the proper (legal) authority.
the affair was -none of his. He had never
done anything , himself of which he, was
• ashamed. If there:was scandal afloat concern
ing the President, which might be set at rest
by his denying that it was true, he did not
propose to make any such denial.•! He pro
posed to let •matters take their course: He
mulerstood the position in which this placed
the kresident. ,,
The facts ' are A man called at my office
yesterday, and asked it I had read the article
in the Saturday Review, referring . to Steno,
I artin iflohers feYG eneral 0 rant,
&c. I told him I had. not seen the Saturday
Review, but that one or two articles had ap
peared in the Wortd and Sun implying that
stone, :Nichols & &one were Mr. Corbin's
brokers. • He expressed surprise at this,. and
thought there must be some mistake about_, it
as ho was a reporter tor the 'Warta and had
not seen anything' 'of ' the kind ; that
on reading the article in the Satur
day Review he had made inquiry and
found that there,were but two firms in Wall
street connected with the name of Stone; that
he would like to-ask whether we were willing
to deny actingas brokers for General Grant:
I told him that it the' Grand Jury, or General
Grant or any party having a direct interest or
any transaction through - the firm of Stone,
Nichols & 00., of which.firm I was.a partner,
requested that we should. answer fully any
proper' questions,. that we had nothing to
conceal, ;but that we did not aeknowlefte the
right of newspaper reporters to question us
in these matters, and that 1 would 'neither
'deny , or acknowledge to them anything in re
gard to the , articles that, had appeared. Ho
then said, that be " would be very glad
to have a . denial from us, as ' on
Searching the records in Now t/erseY.they,had
found the accusation which ',appeared agatnst
Mrs. Grant ' without foiffidation.! My reply
was,, as before, that we did not acknowledge
the right of newspaper , correspondents. lo
question us. This is . , as'near as I. can reeol-,
loot,- the whole of the.. conversation between
us: It was the intention , a . my partners,' as . .
well as of myself, to have taken no notice of ..
these several articles which had appeared in

positively that. Sterrie,•.: Nichols Co; have,

A Young Senile Girl's Experience in
Snit Lame City-arhe &coursed Worn of
Brigham's •Proselytinir Emissaries—,
The. Sexagenarian's Proposal of Mar.
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.. Y..

, DeCordoya, the 'popular humorist,
will deliver the fourth lecture of the "Star

and the lecture .is described, •by those who
have heard it, as uncommonly brilliant and
witty. •
—Hermann, the Magician, will give enter
tainments at the Academy of Music, coin-.
mencing on Monday evening, and continue
thrOugh the week. 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
