IHE SIEGE OF PARIS AID FRENCH
REPUBLICANISM.
The siege of Paris has actually begun. The
advance forces of the Prussians are within
cannon shot of the forts'upon the north, south'
and east sides of the city, and the main body
is coming forward rapidly with the design of
completing the circle' and investing the city.
In this crisis the behavior of the people of
Paris is in every respect admirable. Instead
ef the turbulence and violence and outlawry
which were feared, there seems to be general
respect for law, and a disposition to refrain
from any demonstrations which would' be
likely to: have.the character of a inversion in
favor of the enemy. The whole population is
united in a determination to defend the city to
the last extremity, and while the examples of
the brave garrison of Strasbourg and of other
besieged cities present themselvcs for imita
tion, we doubt not a most heroic and desperate
resistance will be made. General Trochu evi
dently has determined not to await passively
within the fortifications the assault of the be
sieging force. He has sent out an army of
eighty 'thousanfl - men' 'iS'6ffef~Fatl3fr - t6'‘t£e'"
Prussians in front of the city.. The
probably is to engage the advance of the Prus-.
sian force before there is time for the main body
to come up to its support, and as Trochu has,
of course, chosen his best troops for the pur
pose, it is not at all unlikely that he may win
- a victory, which will be grateful however un
important its ultimate consequences.
There determined attitude of the Parisians,
and their elaborate preparations for defence,
promise that the Prussians have a task before
them, the result of which is hardly doubtful if
there is no outside interference, but which will
be tedious and difficult in its performance.
With all their superiority of numbers, the
Prussians will operate at a continual disad-.
vantage, for they cannot subsist on the deso
lated country, they are far away from their base
of supplies, and they are surrounded by - a
hostile population which will. embarrass them
in every possible?’manner. The longer the
Parisians can hold out the better will be - the
chance of their success. Every day will add to
the difficulties of the Prussian situation, as it
will give the French people in the provinces
.time to organize fresh armies from the eager,
excited population. It may be, also, that Ba
zaine will succeed in extricating his army from
the toils of the Prussians at Metz, and this
body would form a nucleus around which could
be rallied a formidable and powerful force.
We do not esteem very highly the circumstance
—cftheTscape"of'Garrrobeit: —He~hss"~bu'trsix~
thousand men, and he can do nothing better
than to conduct them, through a country Tiled
with Prussians, to Paris,which may be entirely
surrounded by the besieging force before he
can reach the city. liis successful escape
derives its chief importance from the fact that
it is a partial assurance of the possible escape
of Bazaine.
That is another fact which the Prussian de .
lay in front of Paris, or the bombardment of
the city will develop. If King William refuses
to make peace upon the humiliating—almost
shameful—terms proposed by the Provisional
Government; if he refuses to heed their pit
teous entreaty for cessation of hostilities, sim
ply because he will not admit the authority of
a popular government, and will not consent to
peace unless at the price of dismemberment of
France, he will aleinate the liberal people of the
whole world, he will rob Prussia of that plea
of justice which has made her victories glorious,
and he will receive and deserve the execration
of all lovers of liberty. The bombardment of
Paris, when peace can- be made upon-terms
which will compensate Prussia for her pecuni
ary sacrifices and satisfy every one of her just
demands, will simply be a crime which sooner
or later will be avenged. Prussia cannot ex
cuse such an act upon the plea that she can
obtain no guarantees from the Provisional Gov
ernment. She can secure herself by material
guarantees, which will be infinitely surer than
any promises made by that Imperial power for
which the King apparently has such warm ad
miration.
More than this, if the war is continued
manifestly to defeat the Republican eximri
ment, it will assure Us success, sooner or later.
Prussia cannot sack Paris, after its citizens
have been slain by thousands in its defence,
and then erect, amid its ruins, a stable
monarchy. If any prince is mad enough to
accept a crown from such hands the French
people will assuredly destroy him. It is too
late in the century to deny the right of the
people to govern themselves; and it is mad
ness for any monarch, however powerful, to
make war upon any attempt at popular
government while the spirits of liberty and
revolution at this moment are agitating all the
nations of Europe. It will not do for admirers
of Prussia to argue that the French people are
unfit for self-government. They have always
shown a desire for liberty more earnest
than any other people in continental
. Europe, and if their former experiments
have not been successful, perhaps it was be
cause they have been betrayed by ambitious
riders rather than by their own incompetency
. —bb*Awyed as we might.hav(;._been..at the con-,
elusion 6f our own revolution, if '\yashihgt6Jr
• had been such a man as the first Napoleon.
.At any rate, their last Imperial master having
deserted them, as some believe, most treach
erously, in the very crisis of a peril which his
villainy made possible, they have a right at
least to try again to govern themselves, and no
American who believes in the justice of his
own government, can very well deny them
=: —that-right—-They—may-make-this._eflbrt_now-
with better hope of success than ever before,
■ for they have the bitter failures of the past to
guide them, and they are led by some pure and
irbie men, of whose patriotism and sincere de-
votion to the cause of republicanism no intel
ligent man can have a doubt. If the French
people are ever to be fitted for self-government,
they must learn its duties and responsibilities
by experience; they will never receive such
training under a monarchy'of any bind.
THE REGISTRY.
The Registering officers are now in session,
- and will be until Tuesday next, at the various
-Precinct houses, for-the purpose of completing
the extra assessments, and we strongly urge
upon the voters of the city to.
examine the. Registry Lists and see that their
names^aredown—andproperly-printed.Per
sons living at hotels and boarding-houses
should he particularly attentive, to this duty, as
they are not registered unless they make per
sonal application to the Registering officers,
now in session. No man can justify himself
for losing-a vote at the coming election, out of
neglect of his present duty. Not only will
every Democratic vote he registered, but untold
'numbers will be smuggled in as voters in the
various fraudulent ways so well-known to the
Democratic managers. The frauds of past
years will be attempted again, and while they
will be closely watched and vigorously pun
ished, one of the very best ways to counteract
their rascality is to poll every Republican vote
in Philadelphia against them.
And while we urge .upon citizens the duty
of attending immediately to their registration,
we would also urge upon the active working
men in every election division not to trust al
together to the public announcements that the
extra assessments are now being made. Per
sonal application brings-out many and many a
vote. The listless must be stirred up and
registered, and then they must be looked after
again on election day. Effort, personal, per
sistent effort is the only sure way to success.
We want to see a decided Republican victory,
and it can only be made sure by bringing out
every'voter-to do his duty --
Miss Mary F. Howell, the well-known
pianist, has Teturnfed to the city, and will re
sume her music lessons, at her residence, No.

London. Sept. 17. —The Times this morning
indulges in another despondent article upon
the . unfavorable termination of all negotia
tions thus far undertaken to secure peace be
tween the belligerents. •
The Times in this article says that the
chances of stopping the war are diminishing,
and threaten to vanish altogether.
England considers the surrender of Alsace
and Lorraine as unwise, but that she is • not
required to interfere and avert the conse
quences of war wrongfully began by France.
England will never fire a shot to oppose the
demands of Germany. France should address
the King of Prussia direct and ascertain the
terms upon which he will treat for peace.

It is believed that the Holy See will arrange a

Tobacco Decision.
Tho Internal Revenue Bureau has given a
most explicit decision regarding affixing tho
name of the jobber or proprietqr on a package
of tobacco instead of that of the actual manu
facturer.
This is called out by the numerous letters of
wholesale jobbers complaining that aflixing
the manufacturer's name advertises him and
takes the trade from them. '
. The decision limits the use of the pro
prietor’s name on packages and labels to those
cases where the persqh claiming to be the pro
prietor is. the o wner of a factory, or has a legal
right or title to a particular brand of .tobacco,
an nil or gjgare.or where the goods are manufac
tured expressly for the person claiming such
proprietorship.
- Goods manufactured for general-sale to any
customer are not entitled to have. the pur
chaser's naraeappearasproprietor. ;
In the cancellation of stamps the name of
the actual manufacturer must appear in all
cases, as lie'is the only person held respon
sible.
Dealers and jobbers complain of the manu
facturers name appearing even on the stamps.

THE SIEGE OF PARIS
COMMUNICATION SEVERED
The Bepublic Yearning for a Leader
More of England’s ' Neutrality
London; Sept. 17. —The.Prussians have em
barked a large number of heavy cannon upon
steamboats for landing near Paris. ' The pas
sage for these boats will be exceedingly
dangerous, as the channel of ; the Seine is
thickly strewn with'perchesion torpedoes, anil
it is belieVed that these infernal machines
colliding with the vessels will destroy them!
Many Krupp siege guns, of extraordinary
calibre, which have been placed on floats on
the way to Paris by the Main Rhine Canal,
have grounded by the sudden drawing off of
the wateWrom the channel. The French en
gineers blew up the locks and- emptied the
basin of the canal.
—ln thispredicamentitis anticipated tbat'arr
attempt may be made from' the direction of
the northeast of. Paris to capture the oid
iiance. A powerful convoy accompanies file,
cannon. ' -
London, Sept. 17.—[Special to the New
York Herald.]—A despatch from Marlem-
Jbaurg-statfcH- t,hat-the Calais railroad and tele
graph lines to Paris liave' been cut, and all
further communication with the besieged city:
is severed.
5104,091,336 00
Passengers proceeding to the , frontier are
compelled to take the lines that go through the
cities in North France.
Hopelessness of the French.
The people throughout France are down
cast in consequence of the absence of ail or
ganization in both the military and civic de
partments,and there is no confidencem the
chiefs of the Departments. '
A universal sentiment of inexpressible hope
lessness, and a yearning for a constitutional
head who shall bring them out of this terrible
chaps into something like order, is generally
prevalent in the provinces.
There is a general impression that could a
leader he found like the first Napoleon the po
- Utica] and social condition of France could be
speedily retrieved;
Prominent amidst all this . discussion is the
universalfiesire for peace. It is now known
that Bismarck will not consent to signing any
treaties of peace unless those treaties have
the sympathy and confidence of the people of
France.
The feeling in Belgium is strongly in favor
of the French, andit is well known in France
tbat one hundred thousand men could easily
be found in Belgium to fight in her defence,
hut there is no one sufficiently influential add
powerful to organize and lead them.
No Pence—English Neutrality.
The negotiations for peace that have been
carried on between Thiers and the British
Government have terminated without any re
suts favorable to peace.
Earl Granville; the English Foreign Sec
retary, has just informed Thiers, in behalf of
Her Majesty’s government, that all interfer
ence having for its object terms for a peaceful
settlement between France and Prussia, must
be positively declined.
M. Thiers expressed to Earl Granville his
regret at the unsatisfactory termination of ne
gotiations, and reminded the foreign Secre
tary of the continuous eflorts manifested in
their several interviews, when terms were
proposed for submission to each of the bel
ligerents, and by which a satisfactory peace
might have resulted.
Lord Granville remains firm and immova
ble in the position he has taken in reference to
peace negotiations. - r - -
Considerable excitement is manifested at the
Prussian Embassy, to-day, in consequence of
tbe well-founded belief that a large number of
muskets have been sold to Franco since tbe
war commenced. ;
It is regarded by tbe Prussian Minister as
an oflenco of considerable aggravation by a
neutral power, inasmuch as he has reason to
believe that tbe muskets were the property of
the British Government, and the Bale was
effected by agents of the Crown.
