Messrs. Editor*: Tluj; amsual fl£ricultu,Ka,
and Floral Exhibition iwis held yesterday and
to-day, under the auspices pp “.The/Farmer’s
i-lnb” and “The Floral'Society.” ~ The crowd
in attendance was very great, extra excursion
trains running from Salem and Bridgeton,
bringing in large detachment from these places.
Philadelphia was also well represented. It was
feared that the long protracted drought of the
summer would render the. attempted exhibition
a failure, and many thought it injudicious to
hold- the fair. The managers, however, (ful
not share' these apprehensions, and made all
due arrangements for the event, as thougbthe
shintnerhad been itaost propitious,' The. issue
’sfcpjvhd ' their £obd it*.
as'’#iie of your neighbors recently informed
the ’ public, \ Vineland soil is all sandy,
barren, unproductive,and the last that any man
would choose for agricultural purposes, the
marvel is where such fruit, vegetables and
Powers came from. The display was one of
great interest, as well as of profuseness. The
Vegetable Department—less full than ’ usual—
was pronounced by farmers from a distance
superior to anything they had!.seen elsewhere.
Melons large, in size, rotiln'd In form, and
luscious to- the taste; sweet , potatoes solid and
weighty, doing credit to soil and culturecorn
such as you seldom see in city-.markets, .and
pumpkins of a golden hup, and grandeur of
size, awakening memories of other years, and
anticipations of enjoyment on. coming festivi-
were parts of the. produce' which
showed that the- nutriment in Vineland sand
was sufficient ,to counteract a long-protracted
drought, to keep its own people from starva
tion, and to feed the craving appetites of other
localities.' '
In the Fruit Department, pears and grapes
chiefly predominated, although peaches, quinces
and plums put in their well-sustained claims to
atteutaon-ahd-praise.—Of the:pears, the.Barfe
lett and Duchess d’Angouleme were the
most conspicuous varieties. There was a large
display of both these. They made pressing
appeals to our taste, in which the luscious
Sickle pear- joined. I do not remember to
have seen anywhere such fruit, so large, and
yet so solid. It would be invidious to specify
any single contributor, where all did so nobly.
The principal varieties of grapes were the
Concord, Isabella, and a species of Wine grape,
the name of which , I did. not learn. Their
beauty, and the size of the clusters, did ample
credit to the place and its name. It was very
evident that a large amount of intelligent cul
ture had. been-bestowed upon both the pears
and the grapes, the culture of which, is becom
ing more than ever a specialty among our fruit
-growers. To the perfection, of these fruits, a
large share of attention is now given! by our
people, and the results were evidenced in the
splendid display before us.
The floral department fully equalled in the
- quality and beauty of the flowers anything
that we have ever seen exhibited here -at this
season. The 7 Floral -Society showed that the
lady -members had done a good work already
in the cultivation of a refined taste, and gave
promise of still better things hereafter.
Exquisite' rspecimens. of" wax-woifc’ hair,
wreaths, paintings, drawings, embroidery, net
ting, weaving, wood-work, scroll-work, ' and
more than 1 can now enumerate, attracted
attention and • elicited commendation. ' The
department of Fine Arts and Manufactures
gave in those specimens evidence that our
youthful settlement has no reason to shrink
from competition with our elder sisters.
Altogether, the Fair was a decided success.
The crowd, wasrvery great, but perfect order
prevailed, and the feeling of gratification was
not marred by anything untoward. No case
of intoxication was seen, and the reputation of
Vineland for temperance was well sustained.
Addresses by citizens and strangers closed
the exhibition. The weather has been per
fectly cloudless and delightfully cool.

UELEAGIiEREU STRASBOURG).
Additional Extracts front Bertliold
Auerbach’s Diary.'
Tbs following are extracts from a diary of
the siege of Strasbourg kept by Bertbold Auer
bach, a portion of which has been already
prihted in the Times:
Befoke Stirasisolt.g, Aug. 2S.—Another
Sunday and no peal of bells. I went to church.
Few men, but many Women, were present.
They all wore a costume exactly similar to
that of the Baden Oberland; their head-dress
a broad cap of black network, here called
buecheii. Women’s head-dress always disap
pears the last in any change of the people’s
costume. I sat aloft, beside the organ. Be
low me were seated a row of soldiers, mostly
Landwelir, with hymn-books in their hands.
At the first note of the organ a peasant close
by me began to weep bitterly. I wished to
look over his hymn-book; he handed it to me,
mentioning that I should keep it alone. He
pressed his lips together, weeping incessantly,
and drying his team with an old red spotted
handkerchief. How long have we been ab
. sorbed in the contemplation of individual ex
\ istences? Now everything moves before one’s
eyes in masses, even misery. But such a
stioDg'man weeping solitary! * * * Soon
after the opening prayer of the minister, who,
in full-toned accents, prayed for peace, a sol
, dier stepped into the aisle, between the wof
men’s seats, and beckoned to the soldiers.
They rose up, and bowing down their helmets,
uttergd a silent prayer; then they quitted the
church.
As the preacher, in the introductory portion
of his sermon, spoke of the miseries of the past
week, the women broke out into sobbing and
crying, so that scarcely a word could he heard,
without the dull report of Llie cannonade
was audible. The war cumbers itself neither
with the storms of heaven nor the Sundays of
the calendar. It preaches hard while the can
non thunders, and what does it utter to com
pose one’s spirits amid such' measureless aillie
tion ? Two powers contend in history, hu
manity and rude brute force; this last is only
organized in war. We all; who, one here, the
other there, strive for - the predominance ol
mind, (geist), stand powerless, and what is
worse, despairing of the power of mind. Must
rude force forever decide? The French Gov
ernment even stamped the hymn-hooks; all
have primed upon the back of the title-page,in
red letters, '• Confession d’Augsbourg,” and
the inscription, “ pirectoire du Gousistoire-
General.” Hymn-book and Lutheran Bible
still. continue,, two fountains of Germanism
uiiehokable by any statecraft.
1 do not'-thmk that 1 shall stay’ here long, iu'
order to see ' the destruction ’ of' Strasbourg.
Let me, thbrefore, here speak .out a few re
marks and wishes. Beyond all anticipation,

been obtiated iu a manner no one could have
expected. Alsace must agaiu become German
cur ■ stolen possession "be again brought
homeland the frontier so arrauged that we
need no longer live in continued fear of war.
How that may be ordered let diplomatists
settle. But we must leant to rightly umle'r-
T
theirs—the blame., is ours that for nearly 200
years they have been estranged from us. They
have a right to expect - that their peculiarities
shall be Bandied not. only justly, but also
kindly, and with special circumspection. The
reproach that they threw themselves away to
strailgera.does not smite them io the way it is
intended.'’dPorlilaivay for centuries from the'

-eonae.. flatuses’:,qoine-.to .regard, apostacy. y as„

singularity denotes ill-breeding, and search out
the excellencies of the foreigner. The re
siduum of self-respect which remains, the final
sanctuary of individualism seek sophistically
to pervert itself, to transform what would oth
erwise be an intolerable yoke into a matter of
free, spontaneous choice. The-Alsatians said
themselves the French are .probably the best,
| inasmuch ds'th'ey, are the': most powerful, and,,
i moreover, they have ever: been the most .dis
• tiiiguish'ed up to the present day. -The Alsa
tians, wiio only speak Gorman in its dialect,

Frenchwoman would allow herself to boast,
•“ ][ read nothing in my mother tongue only
[here and there,” as was so frequently the case
with us in Germany. .
; f T have ; learnt to , know, the Alsatians by a
long residence in Strasbourg and Sayerne, and
again in these days;,in. tho midst of that ex
citement-which brings out the traits of char
acter. There is—what is an important con
sideration—still acstrong German imprint, as
yet unweakened. Politically, they have turned
Frauceward, not only owing to Its former re
nown, but, at the present time, through the con- ,
victiou of full equality of all posts of honor
being thrown open alike to. all. This the new
Napoleon has not meddled with; nevertheless, :
they have been fully aware of and despise his
vffe administration. This must be' borne in '
mind in a reuniting .with Germany. In their
long estrangement from their own natural bias
the Alsatians have done injury to their souls,
in various ways has been generated what men,
in a two-fold sense, denote a 9 doable-tongued
ness. Their nature, installed between two
hostile yet incorporate forces—German 'and
“Freneh^-of-^wfaich- the -latter-had— the--upper T
hand—niust have experienced .jnjiu’y and in-:
ward unsettlemeht. * * *" Tliq reuniting
with Germany is not merely a political, but, in
a certain sense, a moral rehabilitation. ’
How hostile has been the ; policy toward
Germany let one instance declare. In school,
teachers were allowed to speak no word of
German to the children under penalty of im
prisonment, and the children were -forbidden
to converse in the streets in German. • Corporal
punishments are forbidden! Wliat does now
the teacher in the village? He becomes inven
tive; A child who. speaks a word of German
in the school must carry abouta board attached
to . a cord wherever he goes or stands, until he
finds another child speaking. German in the
street, to whom iL is transferred. What I am
relating is a well-known fact in this village, and
took place until our entrance.
I did not turn out last night to Witness the
bombardment, as I hear it is not carried on'
duriDg the night purely from strategetic con
siderations, but also because it creates greater
alarm, and might aid in constraining a sur
render. The art of war avails itself even of
psychology whenever it can be made service
able. In the heavens a great red glow extended
far and wide.
Aug.3o.—The last night was an arduous,
onel We knew they, were hard at work on the
tbirdparallel'; 4,000 men were employed dig
ging in the trenches as soon as darkness set
in; at midnight they were relieved by 4,000
others. We were prepared for heavy losses,
and everything put in order for the reception
of the wounded. The most perilous work of
the siege was to be accomplished—an earth
wall required throwing up without there being
any protection beyond that of the fascines,
and'the trenchers had to lay their weapons be
side them, our cannon giving them no cover
ing. lam told that the usage of the besieged
in such case is to fire briskly and to make sal
lies, but now we learn that the besoiged
neither fired nor made a sally, and our most
difficult and efficacious labor is happily com
pleted. We may be said to have arrived at the
fifth act of the drama, which is usually wont
to be very bloody, if only correctly played out.
When the glacis is crowned aud the erection
of the breaching batteries is completed, than
will the fortress have to surrender, and that
may in all probability occur in the course of a
few days.
91. Gnlzot on tbe War.
The Daily News publishes the following
translation of a letter received from M. Guizot
by an English friend id this country:
Yal RfciiEit. —My Dear : If we were
only beginning this unhappy war, I would tell
you frankly what I think of its.evil origin and
its lamentable errors; anuT am sure that a
large majority of the French nation think as I
do about it. But we are not beginning the
war. The opinion of the French nation on
the main point of the question is unchanged,
but no one thinks about them now, and, in
deed, we cairhot and ought dot to think about
them. For the present we ought to occupy
ourselves—and, in fact, we do occupy our
selves—with war, and war only. We are en
grossed by it, not only because'of the unex
pected reverses which we have experienced,
but also, and above all, because of the designs
which the Prussians manifest, and the char
acter which they have stamped upon this war.
On their part it is manifestly a war of ambi
tion for the sake of conquest. They proclaim
loudly that they intend to take back Alsace
and Lorraine, provinces which have been ours
for two centuries, and which we have held
through all the political vicissitudes aud
chances of war. The Prussians do even more .
than this; although they occupy these
provinces very partially and only temporarily,
they already presume to exercise the rights of
sovereignty over them. They have issued a de
cree in Lorraine abolishing our laws of con
scription and recruiting for the army. Ask the
first honest German whom you meet if this is
not one of those acts of victorious ambition
which pledges a nation to a struggle indefinitely
prolonged, a struggle which can only be ter
minated by one of those disasters that a nation
never accepts ; one that if it experiences it never
forgives. Be Bure, my dear , that France
will never accept the character and consequen
ces which Prussia desires to give to the war.
Because of our first reverses we have our
national honor to preserve, and because of the
claims of Prussia we have to defend aud keep
our national territory. We will maintaiu these
two causes at any price and to the. very end.
And let me tell you,and that without presump
tion, that being so resolute.as we are, we are
not seriously uneasy as to the result of this
struggle. At the very beginning the Prussians
made-mi immense effort; there is another yet
to bq made ; it is on our part, and it has, as yet,
scarcely begun.. We were -greatljL to blame
that we were no better prepared at -first,.' but
••with all our shortcomings we..have. seen..what
our "troops : are worth, and this will be
seen and felt more and more as time goes on,.
We are superior to the Prussians in men,
money, and territory, and \vp will equal them
in perseverance ; even should they persevere,
as they will need to do, if their projects are to
have any chance of success. Tbe age is with
us, and we will not fail the age.
[• This, my dear -—-,.1 Ttell you in all frank
ness aud sincerity, is tlie ..actual condition of
i facts and of iiieiis minds in Fiance. lam

r England, and that there should be no mistake

INDIFFEpEXCE -OF ENCiLISIf MINISTERS TO
THE CRISIS. . „
j From the‘limoi.} •' ' '
The Ministers, it may be, enter into the
pleasure of “standingon the shore arid seeing
ships tossed on. the Sea,” or : of “ being in a
castle and witnessing a battle and the adven
tures thereof below.” To all appearance they
contemplate the crash.of empires and the fall
.of thrones with a feeling of rural security. We
hear of them enjoying the sea- breezes of the
Channel, or staying at Highland reSiderices, or
visiting friends in the country. It would have
been imagined that there was inatter enough
for a Cabinet Council in the news of every
week. One would have supposed that .men in
a responsible position at such times could not
have sought too many opportunities* for : inter
changing ideas on the great events they may
any day have to deal with.. But they - seem
quite content to leave "us in the hands of a
Provisional Government of under secretaries
and private secretaires. When the hour for
meditation arrives there will be only" time for
a brief conversation, and a hurried journey to
Balmoral. No one thinks jt worth while to be
on the spot in order to he m’readiness *for any
contingency. The Ministers, sir, as we all
know, - possess all the confidence of
the country, and the country >jwill
doubtles be encouraged 1 by the
philosophical calm of the Ministry. It is true
the Germans are protesting with increasing
vehemence against our interpretation of neu
trality, and declare that the duties of a neutral
Government are notjfulfilled by tying our
hands with ineffectuailaws and then proclaim-
ing that the law will not allow us to act. But
the Ministry think they have rio more urgent
■duties-to-attend-to than-press on-them-iri-ordh
nary autumns, and the country will, of course,
be reassured. One advantage we —certainly
gain. There is no danger of our active inter
ference in foreign quarrels. It se'ems, indeed,
from a telegram you published yesterday, that
the Government have not been wholly , in
active. They have actually obtained an en
gagement from Greece to abstain from throw
ing her immense force into the contest. It is
understood, moreover, that they have made an
agreement with other powers not to join in
the struggle without mutual explanations. It
is evident they think there wilj be abundant
leisure for such explanations. The armies of
Prussia or the Republicans of Paris will hold
their hands while Ministers are returning from
the Highlands, the South Coast, or their coun
try residences.
WUnt Of The Republic?
[From tho Spectator.J
Poor Prevost-Paradol! Sis weeks longer of
pain, forty-five days more of patience with the
Almighty, and his burden would have passed
away, and he would have had a career, and all
Europe would have honored him for his wise
prevision. It was during the agitation about
the plebiscite that he warned England through
the Times not to put too much faith in the
mere military pressure on Paris—told her that
the moment Paris was united the soldiery
would be Parisian, affirmed that the hrain of
the wonderful city was acute enough to devise
new and unexpected modes of overthrowing
despots. It was all nonsense, said Philistia,
and to his own sick'brain and sore heart it all
seemed nonsense too. There was the mighty
army, there were the huge barracks, the smooth
roads, the ready artillery, the cowed and dis
uhited’people, without leaders,' or arms, or the
tradition of self-government. France had re
elected Ciesar, oppression would be perpetual,
and he in his misery and cowardice would quit
the world which hope had quitted before. Only
forty-five days, and then the horn 1 for which
he had longed for eighteen years struck loud,
and amid a race, of imbeciles he alone was
proved to have been far-sighted—
and he had fled from before his
own triumph in impatient fear., The hour
came, and with 50,000 troops within her gates
and a Caesarist. government to use them, Paris,
without firing £ shot, without shedding a drop
of blood, almost by an act of pure volition,
swept the. dynasty—its court, its
satellites, its ministers, its policy— at one sweep
out of France, Nothing is more wonderful iu
the whole movement than the way it has shown
the foolishness of the wisdom of the cynically
wise. How often have we not been told that
Paris is no longer France; but the emergency
arrives, Paris irises, the representatives' of
I’aris form a government, they dismiss by de
cree the representatives of the country, and all
France “ adheres ” with acclamations 1 How
often have we been assured by men “ who
know France” that the army had become a
caste, separated in feeling from the nation;
that it never would again “ fraternize ” with the
citizens; that Paris must yield to scientifically
organized force ; and when Paris has risen,the
troops; with a peremptory.order to fire. and a
certainty of success if. they win but act,turn up
the butt end of their l ilies and are for that' day
and that emergency citizens again. How
often have we been told, in spite of their un
changing votes, that the shopkeepers ot Paris
preferred the empire to a republic and
cash to both; that as a force they
were extinct, and ' that the only danger to the
empire came from the men iu blouses ; where
as, it was the grocers, the shopkeepers, the men
of 1 the - National Guard, .whose battalions
marched on the Legislature; and-would,-had
the soldiery not joined them, have made Paris
flow with blood. And, finally, how often have
we been told that the revolutionary tradition
had been broken; that “ the Empire had altered
all thatthat Boiiapartes would at all events
disappear after the fight the Bourbons ought
to have made—and yet, when the time arrived,
every movement was as strictly in accord with
tradition.as if revolution were a constitutional
formula, The traditionof Franco is thatwhen
revolution has been needful, all citizens, of
I’aris should'see it all at once, and unexpec
tedly ; that the armed citizens should march on
the Legislature; that the soldiers should frater
nize; that the majority of members should pro
pose some preposterous compromise; that the
qf the day shbnid understand tho logic of
•the situation, and should''create a government;
vthat the government should be ar
rested, or fly lo avoid arrest; that the republic
or the alternative fancy of the hour should be
declared supreme; that Paris should sing for ;
joy, and that the provinces should adhere ea-.i
thusiasticallyrand so it’all happened. !

dre«l Coolies ot Bellevllle, N. J.
At midnigdt on Tuesday night the village of
Belleville, north of Newark, was disturbedin
its slumbers by the roll of a‘ dozen wagons over
the-road—an unusual noise for the hour in the
quiet town. Two hours before, a gang of
nearly one"hundred citizens J of the -Celestial
, Empire had landed from an Erie train at Sato^
1 tiago parlq takhiglfi-pm a freight-car winch ac
companied their' train, boxes and bundles
i enough to supply a regiment. The strangers,
as they moved noiselessly about, gathering to
gether their luggage, Spoke to each other only
tin a.language.not.re be.interpreted.by the. per
sons connected with the railroad service at the
depot. They ;were dressed in the national cos
tume, their blue blouses,’pig-tails and pointed
wooden shoes forming a marked contrast. to
the style of dress worn by tlie lookers-on. The
persons who had the yellow men in charge
would give no explanation or information as to
their destination, the gentlemen who had con
tracted for their services having given his agents
express orders to give no information. This
gentleman, Capt. Hervey, bad been troubled by
the circulation of a report,’ several; weeks ago x
that he intended to discharge his employes and
place Chinamen in their places. Soto preveut
his help from leaving him he had ,to deny the
rdport' publicly,.and the secrecy- with Which the ■
gang was brought into the vicinity was due to
this fact, not less than to the. fear that the inof
fensive party might be attacked were they
taken openly , through the country- At Port Jer
vis, where they arrived early on Tuesday, they
were detained until night,so that theirentrauce
might be made under cover of darkness. Even
the conductor and brakemen were not ac
quainted w.ith the real destinatiorspf their pas
sengers, but , .surmised that they were apart of
the large force contracted for by the contractors
of the Midland Bailrriad, . and* that they_ were_
brought to Santiago Park'd) he sent thence'by
the. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
branch to Pomptdn. Thus the Chinese came
“like a thief in the night,” and were sent to
their future home at Belleville- in wagons.
They are to be employed in the great laundry
at Belleville, the proprietor,' Captain Hervey,
having contracted with Mr. Koopmanschap for
their services for a term of years. The estab
lishment of Captain Hei-vey is one of the larg
est in the country, arid gives employment to
eighty or ninety hands. The proprietor—a re
tired sea captain, who has for fifteen or twenty
years followed his present business, arid has
made a large fortune thereby—had learned by
long experience that the. ..labor, of white girls
and’inen was unsteady and unreliable, and
that a great saving could be effected by' engag
ing bands at a stated price; for a lengthy pe
riod. Learning of the efforts that were
being made to introduce Chinese la
bor into—the Eastern and. Southern
States he became interested in the subject, and
made diligent inquiry relative to the capacity,
adaptability and industry' of the Chinese la
borers. The result of his inquiries was most
satisfactory,and he entered-into a contract with
Mr. Koopmanschap - for seventy hands, for
whose services he agreed to pay eight dollars a
month and rations of rice,"'Bread, porlqr die.,"
amounting in cost to an equal sum. Quarters
will be provided for the new help near the large
laundry building, and the newly-imported la
borers will have things their own way. The
men and girls hitherto at work in the factory
have been discharged, their successors being so
well accustomed to similar work as to be able
re commence at once. Considerable excitement
has been caused in the vicinity among the la
boring people, who have heard of the new in
road of cheap labor, but no demonstrations
have yet been made against the new-comers.—

THE WAR
Touiis, Sept. 21.—Information received here
to-day destroys the hopes of peace. Favre ex
pressed bis willingness to accede to a plan, to
satisfy' Erussia, .for electing a' representative
assembly, and thus obtain the voice.oCa duly
accredited government in making, terms of
peace, but the King, of Prussia’s counsellors
positively-refuse an armistice, and will riiake
peace only on condition of retaining possession
of the districts now occupied until terms are
ratified by the Constitutional Assembly. Al
though the question of terms has not yet been
received, Favre informs bis associates that the
cession of Alsace will certainly be.the ultima
tum of Prussia, and he hat little /tope of success
•in his mission. ’ - '
London, Sept. 22.—General Burnside left
for Paris this morning. - He carries with him
letters from Count Bernstortf to Bismarck,and
also to the Prussian and French commanders,
and expects to get through'the lines,, but it is
doubtful if he succeed.
Allcommunicalion between Paris und Tours
has been cut, and the members of the Provi
sional Government are now as effectual!}" sepa
rated as before.
Lyons and Paris are not in political accord.
The great cities of France refuse to be
bound by the action of the capital if it capitu
lates.
The Catholic powers have already communi
cated to the Pope their readiness to contribute
their quota to make up a revenue for the main
tenance of the Holy See.
* The report from Touts that Thiers had ob
tained from England a recognition of the Pro
visional Government is not believed here.
The armament of the fortifications of Lille
has been completed, and an immense stock of
munitions of war and provisions has been
laid in.
Specie payments have been suspended by
official notice.
Paris, Sept. 22. —1 t is impossible to separate
now the political from the military question,
for -underst anding one you- must understani
the other. There are two different powers in
Paris,;,one official, the Provisional Government,
which satisfies nobody, hut is accepted and
tolerated by everybody, and the other the Cen
tral Republican Committee, composed of four
delegates from each arrondissement, or eighty
delegates.
Thesefour delegates are selected from twenty
five delegates elected by the people in every
arrondissement. They are in constant com
munication with the people during, the day,
through twenty-one delegates remaining in tne
arrondissement, and at night by public meet
ings. r A special committee of five remain in
permanency, day and night. ‘ At the sitting Of
the Assembly these eighty delegates constitute
the commune of Paris. • , .
They sent yesterday r message to the govern
ment askiog for immediate measures: . .
Pint—To transfer the police from the cen
tral government to the municipalities, the elec
tion of magistrates, abrogation of every law or
decree interfering with the absolute freedom
of speech, of the press, meeting, or association.
Second—The appropriation of the necessa
ries oflife wherever to he found, and their dis
tribution among the families of the National
Guard and those in need, proportionately to
the amount of provisions, the probable' dura
tion of the siege,'and the number of persons to
be fed.
Third— The immediate appropriation of all
empty apartments and public-buildings for the
accommodation.of.the defenders of the city.
Fourth —A levy en ma&xe of all Frenchmen
- without exception.
Fifth —The immediate despatch of several
commissioners to the departments, to raise the
population and send them to defend Paris. ’
The government refused yesterday to yield
these demands, and to-day a delegation of 120
members, comprising 80 members of the cen
tral committee, and two special delegates from
each arrondissement will again present them,
and if the government, persists in its refusal
the‘people themselves will come, peacefully, but
«i masse, to-night. At Lyons the : workmen
have instituted an independent government for
the defence of France.
The first success of the Prussians will over
throw ‘the Provisional G overnment as" Sedan
overthrew the Imperial Government, and then
the people will certainly take, better care, of
themselves.tlian their traditional master? have.
The International Association of. Working
men has been the cradle of that 1 powerful or
ganization, which is objectionable to the Bour
geoisie and a source of fear to the government,
" ’ i 2'" •
but has the deepest root in the, hearts; :pf the
people.
Tours, Sept. 22.—The Prussian cavalry
entered Mantes, ori tkeHavjs.agd Paris Rail- ■
road, and made a requisition, but subsequently
rejoined their corps, which was advancing in
that direction; ; The’ 'figbtiii£ near Paris co.n
-tinueß with varying -results, j,; „,, ... . ..,,,, "!
' No fmpoi'tarit''engagement has’ycf'taken

Letters from Metz, picked'up at Teutrange,
reltcrate tlie assurances that ,the ; place i 3 well
provisioned, and! that the morale of the garri
son is excellent. 1 ‘ ’
Paris, Sept. 22.—[Special to the New York
Herald .] —The last hours for leaving the city
were marked, fay a ;,ru3h ; of- hundreds, whose
courage gaye way at the latest moment. Hun
dreds of applications were made to Mr. Wash
burne for passports by Frenchmen who were
never outside of France, and who . pretended
to be faaturalized citizens, but were unable to
produce their papers>• , ‘
Beyond doubt Paris is provisioned for four
months. An appeal has been issued by'the
authorities, begging the citizens, to. exercise,the
greatest care and frugality in the use of pro
visions from the present moment. Trochu is
working indefaligably. Yesterday he was con
fined to his bed by ijlness. For the past two
nights-Paris .has been in almost total darkness.
The action of the extreme Republicans, even
in this hour of ’ trial, when unity is’indispensa
ble, on Saturday and Sunday, was'disgraceful.
There "were demonstrations in several portions
of the city in consequence of the demands of
the “Reds.”' Noisy and dangerous crowds
assembled in different quarters uttering revolt
ing cries. A large ritimbef of the 1 roughs'were
armed. In'Some cases violence was com
mitted, and in one place a storehouse was.
broken open and a quantity of provisions
seized under- pretence- of -authority from the
Committee of Defence. - " ’.2
On Sunday night much, terror prevailed
among the better class of people, and on Mon
day alarge force of the - National Guard and
some regulars and marines from the forts
inarched into the city and preserved order.
London, Sept. 22.—1 t is generally believed
•here that the Prussians are negotiating-With
France solely for The sake of delay, so as to
secure, jwssession of Paris.' Djiring the invest
ment of Paris the' following important Engage
ments have occurred: On September 17 a
Prussian brigade routed several battalions of
French north of Brevannes Forest. ‘
On the 18th a sharp skirmish occurred near
Vitry, and on the 19th the French were driven
from their entrenchments at Retray, losing
seven cannon. Near Versailles a body of Mo
biles captured a number of Prussians, whose
protection bad been solicited by the people.
Ton:*, Sept. 2.—[Special to the New York
Herald .] —The greatest activity prevails in ali_
departments here l’Or the national defence.
The Council General.of the department of Cal
vados has voted 3,000,000 francs; that of
Lyons 10,000,000 francs and. 200,000 men. and
that of Lille a large sum of money and a great
number of men. Reiuforceraent of volunteers
arrive daily. Five hundred soldiers who
escaped from Sedan have entered Toul.
Elsinore, Sept. 22.—A .French, squadron,
consisting of one armed battery and four
steam corvettes, coming from the south, passed
here to-day. Other French vessels of war are
signalled at Sprogo. * .
. London, Sept. 22.—Telegrams in some of
the London journals assert that the Prussians,
having beeir repulseid in their last assault on
Toul, have - abandoned' tbe and are
inarching.to join the army around Paris.
Minrelsiieim, Sept. 22.—The. siege of
Strasbourg is vigorously pushed. Lunette No.
52 was taken, to-day, by the Prussians, with
only .trifling loss. Five guns were’ taken in
the recent capture of Lunette No. 53.
Calais, Sept. 22.—The main portion of the
French fleet is here, and three iron-clads are at
Dunkirk.
Torus, Sept. 22, Evening.—There is a strong
movement on the part of the clergy of Franco
in favor of national defence.
The railway and postal service is still ex
tremely irreeuiar.
London, sept. 22.—The German OffictaT
Go iette, a new journal published at Ilaguenau,
in the Department of Bas Rhine, Alsace, refers
in its first number to the proposed incorpora
tion of Alsace aniTLorraine with Germany. It
says these provinces are already Teutonic in
language, politics, manners, and ideas, and they
will be’only too happy to separate from infidel,
socialistic France. A despatch from Berlin re
peats the news that a constitution is preparing
for the security of German unity.
