At this time, do those of the city who are wiser in their genera tion than the children of fashion, and whose business engagements do not keep them at home to attend to the reviving Fall trade, be take themselves to the country, and after a week or twomfTnountaihr-climbingj rendered endurable now by the mitigation of the sum mer heats, of boating and shooting and fish ing, and breathing in the oxygen-laden' air ol the bills, return to their:homes anil their busi ness better recruited in body* health and spirits than they who spent the whole; summer in fruitless efforts to keep cool. '“’T” Coal Strikes. w The weather is the orthodox subject with which to open a conversation; but 1 must ask pardon for harping on it so long. I promise to abstain from it in future—unless another such glorious morning as this should set me oil again. Turn we now to graver matters. The strike at the St. Clair shaft, mentioned in my last, has ended, and the men resumed Work this morning. The parties who caused the disturbance by working during the summer’s suspension were two Irishmen and two Dutch men. The first surrendered at discretion, but the Dutchmen entered suit against the W.B.A. All four having withdrawn from the works, the -men eons.idered-their-poinkgained r mid_Kent.to work again. , It is probable that I shall have several more strikes to chronicle in the course of a week or two. As was to be expected, the men dont like the idea of having their first month’s wages cut down eight and a quarter per cent, from the three-dollar basis, and they have picked a flaw in the proceedings of the" joint committee appointed, under the Gowen compromise, to adjust the rates of wages for . August. In ac cordance with that compromisCand its accom panying agreement, a committee'-of. eight, chosen one half from the Board of Trade and one half from the W. B. A., met and arranged the rate-of-wages r from-the)prices obtained, for coal, during the month, by “ five operators, each shipping over 40,000 tons annually. Of these the W. B. A. selected three and the A^ I B. of T. two; but one of the latter happened to be the firm of John Lucas & : Co., who, in consequence of extensive repairs to their colliery, did not ship 40,000 tons last year, though they are rated at 100,000 this year. Here the men made a point, and at a meeting of the Execu tive Committee last Friday, passed a resolu tion “objecting” to the report of the Joint Committee. The resolutions of the Vf. B. A. have, as a general thing, the rare merit of meaning rather more than they say, and that this resolution means business is evident from the conduct of the miners at difierent collieries. The payments for August work are just be ginning, and, thus far, I have learned of none being refused by the men; but several col lieries have given their operators notice that they will have the $3 basis in full, or nothing to the latter clause of which the operators seem to agree with great unanimity. Tlie Usual Monday Accident. The usual Monday accident occurred yester day, and was a complete success. This time it took the shape of a locomotive boiler explo sion. The engine Swatara, formerly the Pawnee, was employed as a shifting engine on the Mill Creek sidings, where cars coming over the Broad Mountain from Mahanoy and Shenandoah Valleys are made up into trains for various points on the “ long road,” as all its .employ es call the main line of the Reading. Her business was to go out at from 12 to 2 o’clock in the morning and make up trains both for the “ long road” and the mountain, and in the performance of this duty, about 8 o’clock yesterday morning, she had just shifted a train of empty cars and run down witMthem to a siding to let the morning tram pass down. A number of brakemen rode down on the engine; but when it stopped they went back along the train to attend to the brakes, thus saving their lives, lor a few moments after the train stopped there was a loud explosion, and when the steam cleared away the fragments of the engine were seen strewing the ground to the distance'of several rods. A more complete wreck of an engine was never made; but saddest of all was llie wreck it made of the fireman, Patrick Cas sidy, who was at his poston the engine, and was blown into almost as many pieces as the engine itself. James Martin, the engineer, was on the ground, in the act of stepping on the engine. His collar bone was broken, his back injured, ahd his face scalded, from all of which he is expected to recover. Cassidy leaves a.large family. The engine was an old one, formerly on the Schuylkill and Susque hanna road, condemned, patched up at Read : ing, and sent to St. Clair, where she was used when she blew up. The Coroner’s jury cen sures the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company, and attributes the death of Cassidy to the Company’s neglect to keep the engine in proper repair.

[Special Correspondence of tlm Philadelphia- Evening Fokt Biuihies, August 29th, IS7O. —In ac cordance with my promise I proceed to give you an account of our trip from Cheyenne. After our' return: from the Loup Fork expedi tion to Fort McPherson, we enjoyed the hos pitality of its oflicers for a couple of days, and then started for Cheyenne, which wo reached August Ist. The less said about Cheyenne the better it will be for its reputation as a business centre and a good moral town. . D. A. Russell, where we procured our outfit, is situated about three miles from the town, and .under command of Gen. King, It is a very large post, being tlm depot for the furnishing of j supplies to the various posts north j We found here, as one finds in all the forts, a fine set of oflicers, who treated-us in a very hospitable manner. We left Cheyenne August 4th, with an escort of thirty ..men, under command of . Cajtt; Montgomery, Campany. B, Fifth United Cavalry. ''Lieut.;? Stambe), Company I, Ninth Infantry, also accompanied us. After marching south for sixteen miles we struck Little Crow creek, the country being one vast plain. Then marching along the creek for .» , a few miles wo soon struck a more ragged: y country, and' finally encamped near Gerry a Ranah, near Abney’s Canon. Here we re-: mained seyerkl days, making excursions into, Hhe surrounding country, .which was coramd twith^uttes,- tobftingdike dcsertedcastles. rhciiv pushing north, we struck the railroad atPme Blufft, marching along it fora couple of days, when weTefirit, and, after a few days’ march, reached the North Platte at Terry’s Ranch,now deserted. The old emigrant road to California passes here. Going into the deserted houses, the thought arises how many people had stopped here, filled with the idea that,they would soon return East witlna large fortune* an idea, that was seldom fulfilled. This river is the boun dary of the Sidux - reservation here. Ihe scenery around" is perfectly magnificent, cailons; innumerable; high blufls knd buttes surround us on all sides. When the iron horse once forces its way along here, it will be, with out doubt, a popular placo of resort. March-, ing along the river lor a few miles, we reached Fort. Mitchell, now 'deserted, though formerly one of the strongest posts dn the frontier. We soon struck Horse Creek, up which,we marched lor several days. Then leaving the cre'ek, we struck Lodge Pole, and finally reached Fort Russell August -Itli, having been gone twenty-one days. The country over which we marched was quite varied, it times the soil good and coVered with luxurious grass; at others nothing but sand to charm the eye. Though we marched through a hostile country, the Indians never troubled us. We saw and shot plenty of game, and while on Lodge Pole Creek saw a herd of wild horses. ' Two of our boys, going out hunting one. day, lost then- way and did not find the rest of the party until the next day, though several scouting parties were out after them. 1 hey weTe glad to satisfy their hunger on a raw duck. ' , ~ The ■weather was quite ■ changeable, some days being very hot and then again very cold, the cold always being accompanied by a driz zling rain. The nights were all very cold. The scientific part of the expedition was reidT successful: In “Northern .Colorado \ye discovered an extensive tertiary deposit. It . abounded in remains of titauothenum, rhinoceros and other extinct animals. This formation is identical with- the mauratses teries deposit of Dakota, and evidently from the southwestern border of the same ancient freshwater lake. These beds tvere then traced northwaid through Nebraska, and along the North Platte river, where they form the from Chimney Rock to Scott’s Bluff. Several thousand specimens of fossil remains were collected, and among them a number ot new species of mammals and birds. While in camp on Horse Creek, August 22d, due north of Cheyenne,' a. large and brilliant " meteor wasobserved-in-tbe-nortb—atr-7 r Pv—j I Its course was from southeast to northwest, and about, twenty degrees above the horizon. We commence to-day to explore the country around here. | Yours, truly, Bullotiu.) PROPOSALS.

THE EIKOI’EAX W&E. London, Sept. o. —Dr. Russell writes to the Times' from Sedan on September 3 n—When the Emperor, who had passed the weary hours of the night, looked out in the early morning, lie beheld a forest of steel and iron on valley and hill-tops, batteries posted on every emi nence, cavalry on all the. plains, and as iar as -bis eyecould reach-hosta-of emhaUled Ger rnans, and ills decision was taken at last. At tended by a -few of bis staff on horseback, his Majesty proceeded along the road from Sedan in a brougham. Count" Bismarck was in bed in his quarters at Doucberjq when au officer rushed in and announced that the Emperor was coining to meet him and to see the King. Count Bismarck rose arid dressed birriself, you may be sure, in white peaked cap with yellow hand, dark uniform coat with meta! but tons and yellow facing, and hastened to meet the Emperor. He was in time to stop the car riage on the ouiside of the town. I was away on the field and therefore cannot, of my own personal knowledge, state what occurred. As His Majesty alighted I hear that Bismarck un covered his head and stood cap in hand, arid on a sign and request from the Emperor re placed it. The Count replied: “ Sire, I receive your Majesty as I would my own royal master.” There happened to be near the place where the interview occurred, a few hundred yards outside the squalid towu of Donchery, a hum ble cottage or a hand-loom weaver, of whom there are numbers around Sedan. Count Bis marck led the way and entered it. The room was not inviting, iand the great Count walked up stairs. The 1 apartment was filled with a hand-loom and appliances for weaving. Seeing which, he descended and; found the Emperor sitting on a stone outside. Two chairs were bronght out of the cottage, and. the Emperor sat dQwn on one and Count. Bismarck took the other and placed it on, his Majesty’s right side. The officers in attendance on their fal len master lay dovyn some distance away upon a small plot of grass In . front, of the cottage. The conversation was a strange one. Bismarck has repeated it freely, or the principal parts of it. No doubt it will’soon be known. The great point to be gained was peace, but as far as his Imperial Majesty was .concerned, no as surance of it coul,d be obtained by Count Bis marck. - / ■, ' ;> I The Emperor stated that bp had no power; could 1 not negotiate peace, couldnot give orders to tho army, or to Marshal Bazaine, The Em press was Regent of France, arid on her • Min isters must devolve the negotiations. So Count Bismarck thcrehjpon remarked that it was of no avail to hold further conversation on politi cal matters with bis Majesty, and that, it would be of no use t® see the King in person, but Bismarck declared it was not possible to accede to his Majesty’s desire until the capitulation lad been signed. Then, as the conversation ■was becoming difficult on both sides, he ended dt, and the interview terminated. Count Bis marck went to seek the King, and the Em peror withdrew to'consult with his officers. ■ At 11.30, articles of capitulation were agreed •on by General T?impffen‘and General Von Moltke, and I believe that Count Bismarck took part in the deliberation. The terms were that the garrison and army of Sedan were to surrender as piffspners of war, to bq sent into •Germany. The officers 1 to be' liberated on pa-; role not to serve again dming the war, and all horses, guns and munitions of war., to be given up. The Einperor’s detention in Germany rwas understood to be part of the. stipulation.: About two o’clock the King, with his body-! guard and an escort of cuirassiers, attended by i •the Crown Prince and a staff of general offi- j •cers, proceeded to a chateau outside of Sedan, i and received the Emperor,-who came with his personal followers and 4 staff* in charge of an; ■escort, which was_ ranged on the . other, side of the avenue,' facing the cuirassiers. ■’ The Kirigj -and his captive retired -into' a glass house of . ■one of ithe,saloons Qri the. drawing-TOom floor, .and they could be seen by.the staff o.utside, en-. gaged in earnest dialogue. After this 'inter view with the King.the.Emperpr had a to w mo ments’ conversation with the _ Crown Prince, during which ho was much agitated when al luding to the manner of the King. I ?-,At ;sncli a moment ovon to.liim tho horses ■were worthy of the Imperial stables.; Tho postillions were smart, as if on tho Bois, or on The way for St. Cloud on a wot day.. They and i£he two who sat behind wore long water-proof j cloaks, <■ glazed bate antj thCJalperiM csclp,de. As the.i»rdughant.n'as ; stbppe’d/for a moment my courier caught sight of his Majesty’s face What a change,’he says,"SincePrince Napoleon lodged iu my Jiouse, before bo went- < to live in King streetU.

Among the latter ' were General Boyer-and; the Priuco of Le moirs,- wbo ar© appointed to wait-on his, Ma jesty. Some ten-orieleven imperial carriages, char-a-banc fourgons,jwitb superb horses aud filled with officersjblfowecf; ' then some French officers on horses,and after a loug string of sad dle horses, ridden by, grooms, sixty orinore. in number,'the rear being closed by troops of black horse. Frenchmen and women, who stood out in the rain, Certainly [djid- hot venture to show any sympathy or sorrow, 'if they felt any. The only sound was the tramp of horses and the inopportune jingling of the bells of the char-a-banc and horses, but now and then choruses were singing, the Wurtem burgers trudging through the mud, .celebrating, the victory, in'which, spfar as. they are 'concerned, they'liad doubless with regret little to do. His great anxiety seemed to be not to be exhibited to his own soldiers. ' The result was, that his Majesty, wishing to avoid' one mischief, was exposed to great humiliation, for his course bad to be altered to avoid Sedan,, and thus be had to pass through the lines of the Prussian army. Paris, Sept, p.—The Prefect of Police;has issued the follo wing proclamation to the police men and inhabitants of Paris: ■ After being for eighteen years crushed under, eruel blows, the traditions interrupted On the ISth Brumaire and 2d of December are at last resumed. The Deputies.of the Left, after the withdrawal of their colleagues, have by a majority, proclaimed a decree of deduance, and soon afterwards the Republic was pro claimed from the Hotel de Viile. The revolu tion which has just taken place has been a pacific one. It was understood that no French blood Bhould flow-, except on the field of battle. -It haS" for its object, as in 1702, the repres sion of the foreign foe. It behooves, there fore, the inhabitants of Paris, by their self-possession and the manliness of their attitude, to continue ' to show themselves equal to the task they and the na tion have undertaken. For this ’ reason, in vested by the government with powers that have been so much abused under previous regimes, I invite the inhabitants of Paris to the exercise of those political rights which theyliave; just reconquered to the fullest extent possible, consistent .with wisdom and moderation, to show. France and- the world,' that we are in deed worthy of liberty. Our duty in the cir cumstances in which we have been placed is, above all, to remember the country is in dan ger, and that France, under the auspices of Republican liberty,'is prepared to vanquish or die. l am certain Lhat my .powers, will only be used to defend you from the blows of those who seek to betray the coantry. , - Keratrv. - It is now positively asserted that: the. Em press left Paris on ."Sunday afternoon. She was going to Belgium to rejoin the Prince Imperial. She quitted the Palace by the entrance on the quay, having with her but a servant. In the morning Ferdinand de Lesseps, relative of the Empress, went tober and advised that she sign her abdication. She seemed to agree to this, Hall where the Ministers sat in council. They all declared sbp must not sign the paper. The Princess Clotilde, says the journals, was the last of the Imperial family to leave the Palace, ."she has gone to Prangihs, where her children are. It was evident from the appearance of the rooms in the Palace, that the departure of the Empress was hasty. Trunks were piled about in vari ous places, band-boxes and articles of apparel were lying about in disorder, and the bed was not made. In the Emperor’s room were a number of hats. On ail sides were empty cigar boxes, a great number of.pliials contain ing phosphate of iron, books, papers, a revolver case and piles of journals. In the room of the Prince Imperial were his book 3, and; an unfin ished historical exercise written in a plain round band. On the floor his leaden soldiers were lying about. It is stated that an official remaining in charge in the Palace, said that all those whom the Empress liad so favored deserted her, and not one remained to see her off. Nothing inside the Palace was injured. Some of the National Garde required the cooks to prepare them a good meal and drank some of the wine in the imperial,cellars, hut nothing else was touched. The letter “N” on the railings about the palace was torn off or covered with rags and handkerchiefs. A strong force is posted in front of the new Academy of Music to prevent the mob injuring the building. The Provi sional G overnment makes known that- it will permit no such excesses. Victor Hugo and Cemuschi have returned to Paris. The former received an ovation. Gambetta has issued a proclamation ap pointing Edmund Valentin Prefect of Stras bourg and for the Department Of Bas-Rhin. The country depends upon his energy and pa triotism to ,1-each and defend liis post. All the police of Paris have been incorporated with the National. Guard. Prefect of Police Keratry bas'placed seals on the doors of the Corps Legislatif. It is reported that Jules Favre has gone forward to meet King William of Prussia. -Rouher qnitted-Paris last night.l : It is,stated that Count Palikao and Henri Chevreau, late Minister of the Interior, are in Belgium, hav ing fled during the crisis preceding the declara tion of a republic. The Journal Officiel ot the republic to-day publishes a proclamation to the army, exhort ing it to rally around the glorious flag which eighty years ago drove hack all Europe. The new government fia 3 revoked the functions of the following ambassadors to, foreign courts : Marquis de Lavallette at London, the Count de Alarbourg at Vienna, and General Fleury at St. Petersburg. A decree has been issued requiring the withdrawal of all Germans from Paris. General de Wimpffen, who surrendered Se dan, publishes a long explanation in the Paris papers'regarding its position at the time of the surrender. He states that he had recently ar rived from Algeria, and was immediately or dered to the command under MacMahpn suf fering from severe wounds in his hip and back, resulting from the explosion of a shell, the fragments of which had struck him, incapaci tating him frond active direction of the move ments of his army. General Wimpffen was thus compelled to' assume command of an . army which was already beaten, and, though ignormt of; the position,:he still refused,to sign articles of capitulation until the Prussians pro duced a map which- showed the ‘position of the German troops and batteries, and convinced him that, the destruction of the French army was inevitable, and then only was the surrender concluded^ The following despatch is official: St.Mene hotjld, Sept. O.L-MacMahon’s army really numbered 120J100 men/ and it is extirpated, to Germany of prisoners of war, including ‘several’ generals, has com menced.' The advance 'of the Cherny on Paris continues.
