TOE FIELD OF WATERLOO. How It liOOks In 1870., , Mhrat Halstead sends to the .CincinnnJ.i Commercial an account nf ayisitto the field tit Waterloo. We exti-abKtfeMoUwiog*: > Our guide was in'some mysterious way re lated to Sergeant-Major- Cotton, who is pn fortunately dead, aud-hq spoke with si French accent and wore a blue,blouse.- We,were obliged to go museurewhere there: are a great many relics qf the battle, and some 'of the bandwriting of Napoleon. It was also necessary to drink a glass of pale ale. Then wo were ordered up; to the pyramid.’ We had j ust settled ourselves,, in, the, shadow of. the jion when we were hssailed by three 'damsels: who • were determined to sell a collectionof the worst specimens of photography that I have ever seen? tOuf ; talented guide at once began to bestow upon its his store 1 of information, gath ered in 'the course of nature from Sergeant- Major Cotton: ' This,guide, who had inherited this valuable- knowledge of his uncle, or his wife’s iincle, Cotton 1 (Sergeant-Maior), was horn on, the field of battle. lie neglected to show the spot upon which ho was born. All the people in the surrounding villages are, of . course, born on the battle-field. , Notwithstanding his blue blouse and sweet French accent,our guide seemed to be a strong British sympathizer. ‘'There,” said lie triumph antly,- ‘‘there is the place where the English in fantry stood in squares when the French cav alry charged them,arid not a square broke. The Rivalry came up that way, through the, hollow on the left, and charged, and not a Anglais broke, not one.” ‘ ” Evidently this is a strong point, An English man-becomes suffused with emotion when told with a soft French abcent that not a square', “broke. I inquired hoW could a square-break when the cavalry were crowding about it in that way. It was impossible to break under buciii circumstances.... Our talented guide was a shade puzzled at this, and began to tell that, when the French soldiers, a few years ago, came this way to help Belgium in some troubles with Holland, the xoldats ascended the mound arid broke three pieces offthe Hon’s tail. A look of bfifror accompanied this revelation; but when T expressed the hope that they would come along again and break the lionnp altogether, ”the T guideli'ekmed"to,see:itin"a-differentiightrT am afraid lie smiled' atihe idea of the overthrow of that lion. ‘ _ . '“Now where, nephew of Sergeant-Major John Croton, where was the last charge of the Guard made ?” . “ Bight there, at the corner of the potato patch. Marshal Ney came up there where the potatoes corner in the oats. That is the furthest point they reached.” , And where is that sunken road of which so much is said. The sunken road of Ohain that Victor Hugo tells us about ? There, on the left of the lion, au ordinary country road, no hedge or trees, a plain track through the fields, on one side an embankment five or six feet above the level of the road and a few hundred yards in length, on the other the field on a level with the road. But on the Other side (the flat side) the sur face of the land had been reduced seven feet on the average, to obtain material to heap up the abominable pyramid. Therefore, Victor Hugo’s precipice, over which the horsamen were flung into tkeabyss known as the sunken road of Chain, was perhaps seven feet high, though- to judge by the bank standing as it was on the day of the battle, not more than six feet, and hardly that. A good horseman would find no difficulty in getting into and out of such a road with both embankments as they were. “Which way did the Prussians come up?” «X,ook down the Ohain road.. In the dis tance you see the smoke of a locomotive under way. Ore the right of that is a cluster of trees. The Prussians made their appearance there.” “ What position did Napoleon occupy ? ” It is pointed out three-quarters of a mile, about, distant—a red-roofed house, half new. The old-part stood there when the battle was fought, and Napoleon wrote despatches and in structed couriers in that room. Later in tbe dayT visited tlie room. lt isa plain apartment,- with a stone floor, and on the walls are, as in all the houses, poor prints and engravings of Napoleon and Wellington. On the front of ihe house is an inscription stating'that Blucherand Wellington met there after the battle. Not a word about N apoleon. Later iu.the evening it is said Napoleonrode forward, proposing to lead a charge and die, or something of that sort. What spot did he reach? A cottage is pointed out where ins horse was stopped by his officers, aud he had ridden two-thirds of the way from his point of observation at La Belle Alliance to the English lines. On the right is the famous ruins of the house of Hougoumout, a very strong position on the day of battle. The garden was heavily walled, and the wall looplioled. In front of it was a hedge, and then a wood of heavy timber. The trees protected the garden wall from de molition by the superior French artillery. Then behind the garden was a hollow, in which troops would lie, or bo moved from point to point, perfectly protected. The wood lias been cut down. It was so shattered by ttie - flfe~dfthe‘battle;-tbatr-thc-trees-were-taken~for fuel. Two or three of the old trees only re main. The garden wall shows the marks of bullets plainly, and only a part of the lobp holes have been filled up. The gate still showed bullet holes.' The wall that was filled with dead is in the road. The shabby little chapel that was not burnt, owing to the presence of a wooden virgin, is extant, and the poor little virgin is still there. I regret to say her nose has been removed—earned off by a profane Englishman as a souvenir. The bul let marks at La Haye Sainte are also plain, especially in the part of the gate that was up on the battle day. We read of the amphitheatre at Waterloo that the contending armies were drawn upon corresponding ridges with a valley between. But there is no amphitheatre. J The country is undulating like a prairie. It rolls irregularly. The British line was in front of a road that followed one of the elevations for a distance of three-quarters of a mile, and in a hollow behind the road the troops wore admirably protected from artillery fire. The English position was very strong—a series of natural fortifications and ambuscades. “In that little hollow behind the road,” said the guide, “ was the second British line. It was “there that Wellington called ‘U p, Guards, and at them.’” When he was in formed that Wellington never said any such thing, he knew we were Americans. Eng lishmen never question those sacred traditions. 1 sought in vain the Freucli side of the am phitheater. The ridges or wrinkles on which the French artillery was placed are obvious,but they are irregular and not comudauding. There are no commanding ridges in the neighborhood —it is all an open, easy rolling plain. The field has from the Lion Mount a level appear* ance, and when you walk over the ground you find that though the swells and depressions are considerable, the slopes are gentle, Napoleon’s : ” position at I.a Belle Ailianeewas not on " very prominent ground; a man on foot at that point could not see the whole British line. It seems to have been taken by the Emperor not be cause it was elevated, but because it was cen tral, being beside the straight high road to Brussels, that was built by order of Napoleon himself,and is paved with bowlders whose faces are not worn with the travel of sixty "years. The] field of Waterloo is in a highly cultivated -region.—lt is.inpartxov.ered_.wilk._oai. shocks, - and evidently every .year prod uces grain largely, though the talk about blood-enriched soil is all ■ J " -poetic license.

At least a dozen villages are in sight,. their red and blue roofs and white walls peer ing ainoDg the trees, and on the horizon ‘are seen tall eliimneys and spires, showing the lo cation ofmanufactories'aud churches; and on the way to Brussels is one of the most beauti ful forests in the world, the trees tall and slen der, almost as thick and quite ;as uniform as fields of cane. This is the 1 forest ;of 'Soignies, and the one Bvron meant wlieii he wrote : / “And Ardennes waves above them her green Dewy with nature’s tear drops as they pass.” Soignies is not as poetical as Anlenues. The forest of Ardennes is farther along. The 1 whole battle-field oWVaterloo is included - within -two square * miles. • -The - French' line, which was the longeiyonly extended two miles. The position of both wings can be seen from several points. The battle-fields'w.eSt of Metz show the operations of much larger armies than those of Napoleon and Wellington, and the casualty lists will show that the combats of Rezonville and Gravelotte were far bloodier than Waterloo, a part of whoso distinction has been that the slaughter was extraordinary. MARU TWAIN’S WAR MAP. nark’s First Atteinpt lti tlie Art lane— , Official ConUnendatlons, A:c. The Buffalo Express of Saturday has a won derful war map, drawn and engraved by Mark Twain, with explanations by the' artist. Ap pended are some recommendations which the work has received. TO TIIE ItEADEIS. The idea of this map is not original with me, but is borrowed from the Tribune and the other great metropolitan journals. I claim no other''merit for this production (if I -may so call it) than-tbatrit-is-accurate.-- - The main blemishof the city paper maps, of which if is ah imitation, is that in them more attention seeins paid to artistic picturesqueness than geographical reliability. Inasmuch as this is the .first time I ever tried to draft and engrave a map, or attempt any thing in the line of art at all, the commenda tions the work has. received and the admira tion it has excited among the people, have been very grateful to my feelings. And it is touch ing to reflect that by far the most enthusiastic .of these praises have come fiom people -‘who know nothing at all about art. By an unimportant oversight I have en graved the map so that it reads wrong-end first, j except to left-handed people. I forgot that in order to make it Tight in print it should be drawn and engraved upside down. However, let tbe student who desires to contemplate the map stand on his head or hold it before her lookingtglass. That will bring it right. 1 The reader will comprehend at a glance that that piece of river with the “ High Bridge” over it got left out to one side by reason of a slip of the graving tool which rendered it ne cessary to change the entire course of the river Rhine or else spoil the map. After having spent two days in digging and -gouging at the map, I wouldjiave changed the course of the Atlantic Ocean before 1 would have lost so much work. . I never had so much trouble with anything in my life as I did with this map. 1 had heaps of little fortifications scattered ail around Paris, at first, but every now and then, my instru ment would slip and fetch away whole miles of batteries andTfeave the vicinity as clean as if the Prussians had been there. •The reader will find it well to frame this map for future reference, so that it may aid in ex tending popular intelligence and dispelling the - wide-spread ignorance of the day.— Make.

J 'There is great rejoictng here to-day, mingled with and guashing of teeth.” Judge W. T.'Jones, Republican delegate to Cou gress, is elected by a majority of 1(10 votes. The Democrats carried tbe last election by a ma jority of 1,400 votes. The ladies very gene rally availed themselves of their newly-ac quired franchise. Even the fancy women here were out to ,a man. I believe 1 wrote you last that.two lauies bad beeu put upon the Repub lican ticket, one for County Clerk,and the other for School Superintendent. Alas for the de generacy of the times! they shared the common fate of their associates. 'There were found men uugallant eiioueh to run in opposition to them, and unchivalrous enough to accept of the victory over them. - It was some cousola tion, however, to wounded sensitiveness t%. know that one of the ladies ran ahead of tho other candidates on her own ticket, and came within ten votes of flooring her Democratic competitor. That was Mrs. I’iekett,, candidate for county clerk. We suppose that as the Re publicans moved upon the enemy, they thought they must keep tbe Pickett in advance. The ladies, with IV w exceptions, were brought to the polls in carriages and omnibuses, deposited their ballots and immediately stepped in again and were driven home. One incident of the day was worth relating. The oldest woman, perhaps the oldest person in Cheyenne,Bo years of age, went to the polls , and voted her first ballot. When she alighted from the buggy the whole crowd surrounding the polls, Repub licans and Democrats, “took /* oir their liats, wliile she. marched through and; de posited her vote. When she turned to 'go away, three cheers were called for, and given so rousingly that they were heard for several squares. She’ll be likely to remember her first ballot while she lives. The ladies, didu’t all vote one way by any means. Undoubtedly the majority voted the Republican ticket, but quite a sprinkling of them voted with tho Democrats. ■ It would seem a little ungrateful not to have .. -done so— -But both parties had runners out. with buggies, from morning till, sundown, -gathering up all the ladies and females that could be found. Of course we did not expect any improprieties bn the ladies. And p'ffTT. ATUi'.T.PHIA EVENING, (BBhbWIF,.<TOESE>SEPTEMBER 20, 1870. it was.at least a fine of that. ,and reverence which “th e men of AmericsAdiavp* ?«br females, that not even a drunkejv rongfc. jwad heard to offer an insult.

The galleries, pjf Dresden and Florence, for instance,' are thrown wholly into the shade by Uie airay of masterpieces on view at Madrid. Thus the .Spanish", collection is to othersmuch what the Vatic an-is to other galleries of frescoes. That Velasquez can only he fully appreciated and Studied at Madrid has of late years been so often repeated as to have become almost a truism. The. crowd of Raphaels,. Titians, audTiubenseswhicßliiie the walls, admirable as -they are, have rivals elsewhere.; but Velasquez •is here - alone represented in the fulness of his power. His greatest' - works- ' are l '“principally known in this country ‘ through photo graphs, small in size and urieqiial in execution. How little Sir Joshua.' Reynolds himself was acquainted with the of-rVelasquez appears from the fact that he:: somewhere as signs the palm in portrait painting' to Van Dyck. Yet so fine a series of. portraits',by one singleartistasis,the. collection.ofJikenessesof. the Spanish royal family at Madrid does not exist in the world. Quite apart'from. .such Iris-' torical interest as attaches to these, "pictures, they are well worth the. study of Englishmen both on account of their inherit excellence'and "of the kinship of the great master’sstyle to the manner both ot our Sir Joshua, ignored him, and of the English schdorge'hdiMly. “To our English tastes,” sayS Wilkie,..‘bit is, unne cessary to advocate the style of Velasquez. I know not iftheremark be new; but we appear as if identified with him arid ' while 1 am in the two galleries of the’ Museum, half-filled with : his . works, 1 can almost i fancy myself among" English; pictures; Sir Joshua, Romney, and Raeburn, whether from imitation, or instinct, seem so ; powerfully im bued with his “ style.” Other painters have of course far outdone Velasquez in the ex pression of. the sublime and the. ideal, but to him is eminently applicable the closing sen tence of Dryden’s criticism on • Otway: “Na -ture~is~liere, which, is. the-greatest.beauty.” He, indeed, seizes the individuality of his sitter, paints the air he breathed, selects the essentials in whatever ho treats, and flings the very nmn upon the canvas with a boldness and skill that none other before or since has com passed. One instinctively feels thas one sees the booby Infants exactly as they "werer in likeness equally removed from panegyric and from libel. Owiug.to the sober and subdued nature ot his tones, his pictures lose far less by being photographed than those, for instance, of his rival colorists, the Flemings and Venetians. It is even possible by means of photographs to guess, and that not too darkly, at -that con summate mastery of handling, in which he was on a level with Teniers himself—a quality' which makes him at once the model and the despair of all who seriously study painting in oil.—His . gift of rendering mrial. _ pet- ’ spective is not altogether unrepresented in tho photographs of the Meninas and the Hilari deras which have been in circulation; and_we think (continues the Gazette) that if these pic tures were judiciously photographed on a larger scale than has hitherto been done, it might be possible then to convey an adequate idea of the merits of the originals. “ Vulcan’s Forge” and “ Christ Crucified,” two works which differ in everything but power and truth, would be easier subjects for reproduction. We fear, however, that the “ Borrachos” and the “ Lanzas,” —the latter perhaps the finest his torical oil painting in existence—would each present great difficulties, owing to the darkness of some of the shadows and other portions of the pictures. In the photographs already taken of them large hlack patches represent these darker parts, and it would require the utmost care to avoid falling into the same fault, which, after all, is perhaps inevitable in part. This occasional blackness, moreover, we con ceive to be the one and only drawback to some of the admirable productions of the Autotype Company, and drawbacks from which even their copies of-. the.Vatican.frescoes„.are .by no_ means free. If the company will turn their attention to the reproduction of the paintings of Velasquez, they will have one more claim to the gratitude of all' who practice and of all who have a genuine love for art. The Pall Mall Gazette, in the above para graph, fears for the successful photographing of Velasquez’s “ Borrachos.” Its replica, how ever, in the Naples Museum, has been very ably copied by the camera. , PROPOSALS.

London, Sept. 10. —Jules Favre tuik' gone to the Prussian headquarters.. Fears are enter tained that he will not be received, but he re quested of Bismarck safe conduct at least, and was answered favorably. He set out immedi ately for Heaux, the present headquarters of the King. Malet, Second Secretary of the British Em bassy, who dually sncceeded in getting ,to the Prussian headquarters, returned on Friday, bringing an answer from Bismarck to Lord Lyons. Before this visit Lord Lyons had asked Favre whether if England requested an armistice the French government would wel come her intervention. When this became known to Granville, Lord Lyons was politely rebuked for his pains. , ; ' . : Bent on improving the situation Lyons then sent Malet on an informal mission to Bismarck, notifying Granville after Malet had gone. Gran ville forthwith directed Lyons to summon Malet hack. Lyons obeyed, but his messenger took the wrong road. . ■; - . Malet, after several failures in making his way through a crowd of Uhlans, reached the King’s headquarters. ; , Out of all this succession of-eiosspurposes-grew-considerable— coolaess between Lyons and; .Granville. Malet’s talk with Bismarck was plain and to the point. He asked for an ultimatum. “We must have Metz and Strasbourg,'” said Bismarck. ;. “ Dismantled ?” asked Malet . “No,’’replied Bismarck,“stronger than ever. - ? “ Then 1 suppose the French Government finds your terms Impossible ?” ; • •. “We siiall invest and’ starve Paris, and if that does not succeed, we shall try sharper means.” “ Would you bombard the city ?” “ Certainly; and bum' it if forced, necessity is triste but hdw to escape it ?” Bismarck’s talk about Gladstone and Gran ville and their timid message carrying was the reverse of respectful, and he did not hesitate to let it be seen that he, cared; nothing ,for the efforts of outsiders, ahd : \vas resolved' to'settle all questions with; France alone,; For; Lord' Lyons himself, Bismarck professed , respect and good will and cordially-advised hiip io get out of Paris while he could. Ho had notified Gran ville that the,siege once began he would allow; . no communications between ' foreign govern ments and their embassies inside the city. The written answer sent .by; Bismarck to Lord Lyons whs confidential and has' not been dis closed ;/but Lord Lyons .intimates that he thinks Bismarck means to have Paris in his hands before, concluding i'peace, as' thf most effective measure of enforcing his demands. Nor is the French government at. heart confi dent of defence. General Trochu told. Lyons he wpuld do his best,; butihe? added: There will be a 'massacre, au'd 'that-’will lead- to anarchy.” The Ministers still utter brave words.-.; ' •. ''.i'lbfvT .* The correspondent .of Uie.New.
