THE PBINCE IMPERIAL.
Mis Last Moment* inFranee.
LFrom Galignani’s Messenger, Bept. 7.1
The Prince imperial had arrived atr Mau
beuge on Saturday, escorted by Cent; Gardes
and accompanied by bis household. He
alighted at theresidence of Mi'Hamoir,deputy
to the Legislative Body. ...
During the day he walked about the town,
and every one. may have remarked, by his
pale and careworn face, how much the late
events bad affected .him. He received in the
afternoon a despatch from his father, ordering
him to leave,and in obedience to that message
he started at. five by rail,for Namur, leaving
his escort behind him, and attended only
by his .two medical men and aides-de
camp. A considerable crowd had fqllowed
him to Maubeuge station. At Teignies a
large crowd had assembled, and - marks of
sympathy towards him were manifested. -At
Mons a large number of ladies awaited him.
but >he was. able, to : pass unperceived to the
Hotel de la Couronhe, in the Principal square,
and where he stayed for a time Defore con
tinuing his route.
At eight he left Mons for Namur.
The Empress is said to have arrived by trail;
from Paris, and to have joined him at Brame
le-L'omte. ■ -
Jean Jacoby, tlie German Revolutionist
Jean Jacoby, whose name is now prominent
as a German democratic leader, and who is
said to have been arrested by order of Kini
William,-was horn at Konlgsherg in 1R0"
studiod at Berlin and Heidelberg, and in 1830
commenced the practice of medicine in his na
tive city, where ne_ acquired a favorable repu
tation for professional ability. He' published
a political pamphlet in 1841,f0r which ho was
sentenced to three years imprison
ment, but on appeal the sentence
was annulled. In 4848 he became
one of the leaders of the Opposition. He was
a member of the first Parliament in Frank
fort, the National Assembly- atißeTliig-the Se-"
cond Chamber in Prussia, and of the National
German Assembly. In these assemblages he
spoke only on rare and important occasions,
hut displayed great activity in organizing the
Democratic party. .Alter the violent, dissolu
tion of the Parliament he retired to Switz
erland, but upon learning that he was accused
of high treason in Germany he surrendered
himself at Konigsberg, and was triumphantly
acquitted in a trial which lasted seven weeks
and occupied the attention of all Germany.
M. Jacoby was soon after elected to the.
First Chamber of Prussia, but declined the
position and returned to his professional duties.*’'
His writings at this period* were mainly on
current events. At a later period he was re
elected Deputy, and maintained the same ac
tive opposition to the mouarchial system. In
18(i4 the municipal tribunal condemned him
to six months’ imprisonment for language
used at.an electorlal meeting. This sentence,
whiclr-prevented him .from entering Parlia
ment in 1868, was followed by another of
fourteen months for the publication of a
biography of Henri Simon in 1805.

are in splendid condition, well trained in gun
nery,and would be sure to do excellent ser
vice if required for action. They are also
kept well in hand, and are under excellent
discipline. All who know anything of Otto
man, history are.:.well aware that excellent
sailors have-always-been fotind fn the Turkish
navy—men ready to fight to the last, though
frequently very insufficiently trained. They
-have-the same c-lassof men - now that fought
at Navarino, with this .difference, however,
that they are at present carefully instructed
in all the arts of modern naval warfare, and
the next naval- engagement iff which the
Turkish navy takes part will be cer
tain to have a very different termina
tion from that of either - Sinope or'Nava
rino. Under the able and assiduous
-attention—of—Hobart—Basha raidedy-I—under
stand, in every possible way by the highest
authorities connected with the navy, not even
excepting the Sultan himself, the officers are
undergoing a scientific course of instruction,
, while the juniors and the naval cadets are
being frained at thdNaval School at Halki in
a manner which will in a short time insure to
the Turkish navy quite a new class of officers,
equal in every respect to those of any other
country, only excepting perhaps the officers
of (fur own and the French navies.
As regards the. army, it is being
steadily increased in numbers by the
Redifs, or reserve, who are arriving in large
numbers, and being placed in the various bar
racks around the capital, where they are now -
daily to be seen at drill. lam told that they
are very fine fellows,and that they go through
the various movements in which they are
trained with very commendible steadiness and
precision. These various preparations are be
ing made without the least demonstration or
excitement. Only last week, when I was go
ing up the Bosphorus, a large steamer passed
by crowded to excess by Redifs ; they were as
thick as bees in a hive, or locusts clustering
around the columns and eaves of a house, yet ■
not a sound nor a murmur was heard; L either,
from the ship or the shore. Au Duglish ship'
passing under'similar circumstances up the
Thames would have been saluted by vocifer
ous cheers from the crowds on the banks, nor
would they have been left unresponded to —
for in theso demonstrative matters we are all
equally ready to join. Very different are the
Turks; indeed all Oriental people are alike
in this respect, for there is nothing more re
markable about large crowds of people assem
bled together in any part of the East than the
exlraordinary repose and quietness, and even
gravity, that usually prevail. And as the peo
ple are, so arethoTurkish Government. Their
E orations are going on without a sign
g made or a sound being
heard ; —but they are not " theless
effectually progressing in the attainment of
their object. It is known that Russia is as
sembling considerable ' forces in Bessarabia;
and if the Prussians succeed in, driving the
Freueh army back on Paris—an/ event which
seems highly probable just now—people are
beginning to think here that Russia will be
tempted to demand compensation in this quar
ter. The aggrandizement of Prussia, or the
establishment of a German empire with the
King of Prussia as Emperor, mightjwell sup
ple- a pretext to the (Jzar for taking possession
oftbcUanubian Principalities. These, it is
true, are only speculations ; but the said spec-,
illations have been extended even to greater
lengths. Still, just now, all people hero are
asking if thevyar Ageing to spread, and if
Russia will be tempted by the present state of
affairs to carry out the policy in which she
was defeated at the time of the Crimean war.
I do not profess to offer an opinion on so
grave a question ; but under the circumstances
1 submit there can be only one opinion as to
the wisdom of the Turkish government, not
only in maintaining an armed, but strict neu
trality, and preparing for what might possibly
, occur, but also in abstaining in every’ possible
way from drawing on itself the very danger
that is to be - apprehended. Some of
the local papers, that set themselves up
as advisers of the public in general,
and the Porte in particular, and no
tably an English print published at Pera,
urged the Turkish Government on what is
called the "morrow of the war”—whatever
that may mean—to send two great armies^■
across the Balkins, ono into Sorvia mid-—the
other to the Danube—the whereabouts, were
not mentioned—in order, of course, to attract
offensive movements on the other side, for
that could he the only result of such an ill
judged measure. I havo since hoard that a
very high personage belonging to the Turkish
Government has observed that- it is. a great
pity that prudent men should not,he editors of •
newspapers, instead- of men utterly without
discretion or judgment, who.are fitted only to
he firebrands. The remark is a good one, and
niigbt.possibly suit some- people nearer home :
as well as the pofsoit for whom it ivas specially
intended.
RUSSIA MAKING READY.
Preparations for War—National Feeliuir
Toward prnssln and France.
A letter in the Baltic Gazette, written in
Warsaw, on. the'29th of August, says :
lii EussiaJnUitary.preparations are actively
progressing, though at the same time Quietly.
A great many horses, intended 1 to complete
the artillery stud,’ have already been pur
chased,-find *Mr Hofmarkr a . merchant at St.
Petersburg, has just completed a contract for
the delivery' of 200,000 jiohdes (ii poude is a
a
weight equal to about fortv-five pounds avoir
dupois.) ; . .-
M. Nobet’s factory at St. Petersburg, has
received an order for 800 mitrailleuses, to be
delivered on the Ist of October.
The Ultra-Russian journals expect that
Prussia, will demand tire cession of Alsace end
Lorraine as the condition of peace, and they
declare themselves opposed in principle to any
aggrandisement of Germany, but they foresee
that, neutral Powers will liotrbe able to pre
vent the giving back of provinces once Ger
man. In the event of that retrocession being
made, they demand & suitable compensation for
Russia, without indicating in any distinct way
what they mean by that. "In order more effec
tually to insist upon such a claim, the Russian
army ought to be mobilized promptly. The
letter states that the German victories have
produced great depression among the Polish
nobility, whose sympathies are altogether de
voted to France.
Turkey and Russia—Tbe Coniine War.
In the Crimean war the integrity of Turkey
was felt to he of such importance, firstly, as.
maintaining the balance or power in Europe ;
secondly, as preventing Russian, interference
in the-Mediterranean,and especially in Egypt,
to the endangernient of French and British
interests, .that France and Great Britain com
bined to uphold Turkey as they had with Rus
• siaiconibined to prostrate her in’the war of
Greek independence—a fatal concession to
Russian policy and statecraft. France and
Prussia now have their hands more than full.
Italy is probably in alliance with Russia. The
only powers really to be considered in the
matter are Austria and Eng1and..........
Great Britain has shown herself conspicu
ously indifferent, if notsupine, in the Franco-
Prussian war, IVhethcr she can bo stifred
into action on behalf of Turkey remains to be :
seen. Her standing army is the constant
theme of ridicule toner own press.
The chief Interest of England in an Eastern
war would be in the short road to her Indian
possessions by the Black Sea, the Dardanelles,
and the Isthmus of Suez. Hardly less' direct
is her anxiety about Russian encroachments
on her prestige among the tribes of Central
-Asia-to-tbe—north-of-tlie—Himalaya-and-the-
Hindu-Kiish.
Austria was apparently neutral in the Cri
mean war. That really hostile neutrality was~
telt at the time keenly by the Emperor Nich
olas, who had promptly rendered services to
Austria in her hour of need, when she was
hard beset with Hungary and Bohemia. a
motive for-Austrian interference now either
for or against. Russia might be found either iA
her desire of aggrandizement at the' expense
of her dangerous German’ neighbor, or in
her fear of a disturbed balance of power in the
East. But she is busy, under the prudent and
sagacious steteSmaffsbipbf'Vbfr : Jleiisliii'"th(S i '
- work.of consolidation. ■ -Sado wa did not break
her power, but it revealed her necessities.
Dike England-, she has no desire to interfere
unless compelled, and her action would
probably hang on the course of Prussia and
Italy; but she is nearest to the seat of war,
and would be roused at once •to an
armed neutrality. Her military strength
and her financial position fluctuates a little
.under the interna! changes taking place, but
her army expenditure is about thirty-seven
millions of dollars ; her army on’the peace
footing ..being 269.000 men of all classes, of
which 162,000 are infantry, 40,000 cavalry,
40,000 artiHery and engineers,* and the remain
der gendarmerie anti irregulars; on the war
footing it exceeds 560,000. The Austrian navy
consists of thirty-nine steamers with 63!> guns,
of which seven are iron-clads, carrying a total
of 176 guns. The Austrian difficulty 5 finan
cial. Her finances have long been in a vexa
tious condition, her expenditure exceeding
her income, and the whole debt being nearly
six hundred and fifty millions of dollars. 1 Her
population of thirty-five millions is lieteroge
-neous, but it includes; some of the most war
like and energetic races of the Old World.
Nor can any man. say what marvelous oppor
tunities of unexpected action on the field of
history an Eastern war breaking out while
France aDd Germany are bleeding to death
might open to the “Eastern Empire” of the
Hapsburgs, as well as to the Asiatic empire
of the Romanoff.
A LETTER TO NAPOLEON.
TV hot a “ Lady Frleud ” is llmleto.Say to
tbe Emperor.
London’, Sept. 23, 1870.—Astray number o
the Paris Rappel, which has been received here
by some means or other from that city, con
tains two letters, said to have been once pri
vate, purporting to have been written by a
female who signs herself Marguerite Bellanger,
aud who is said to have maintained intimate
terms of relationship with Napoleon, and in
one of. which she confesses that an illegitimate
child whose paternity she had at one time
endeavored to fix on the Emperor is not his.
The woman is made to write to the Emperor
in the following wordsj in letter No. 2:
Cher Peighiur: I have not W’ritten to you
since my departure, feariDg that it might
offend you if I did so, but after a visit which I
have received from -M. Devienne"T think f
should. In the first place I beg of you not to
scorn me for losing your esteem. I do not
know what would become of me. Secondly,
I have to beg your pardon for writing. I have,
been guilty, it is true, but I assure you I was
in doubt myself on the subject. Tell me, Cher
Seigneur, if there is any way in which
I can redeem my fault. 1 will not
shrink from anything. If an entire
life of future devotednoss can regain
your esteem it is at your service. There is no
sacrifice which you can demand that I am not
ready to undertake. If it be neeessasy to your
peace of mind that I should exile myself you
need say but the word and I shall do it. I will
leave you with my heart so. filled with grati
tude for all tho favors you have conferred oil
me that to now sutler for you will be a happi
ness. Tbe everything which I desire is that
you will hot on any account whatever doubt
the sincerity or the depth and force of my
love. I would beg, in that you
will forward mo a few lines in reply. Address
Madame Bellahger, Commune Ulle Bernier,
near Damur.
Awaiting your answer, accept Cher Seig
neur, the adieus of your entirely devoted and
very unfortunate, Maiuiueuitb.
This with other letters has been found in
the secret correspondence of the Emperor,
marked “ guarded letters.”
Jules Fnvre’s Clrcnlar In St. Petersburg.
The Journal de Hi'. Petersburg of September 9
discusses M. Jules Favro’s circular in an
article of which the following is an extract:
The French Government is too oxacting
when, -even for the sake of a peace that would
put an end to a war of extirpation, it refuses
to sacrifice fortresses that have not prevented
Paris being exposed to a siege. Gormauy has
seen that M. Jules Favre was not able to pre
vent war when tho nation enthusiastically
sanctioned it, and he will now probably re
quire a lasting guarantee for the results of her
heroic victories. In conclusion-, we must say
wo do not understand how right and justice
can now he said to be pn the side* of France,
when SI. Jules Favro maintained the opposite
a month ago. Wo trust Europe will possess
siirticienf influence to secure a ; lasting peace.

The Police and Politics.— Among the
rules and regulations for the government of
the police force of the city established by Chief
Mulholland May 1, 1869, and “approved,
DaDiel M. Fos, Mayor of is the
following:
•. “ Section 25. Every policeman' will exer
cise the right of a citizen at all elections, un
questioned; but no member of tlte'Fblica
Department will be allowed to connect him
sell with any club, society, committee* or
organization of any kind, the object of which
is the political advancement of a party clique,
combination or individual, under penalty of
dismissal.” . 1 •. •
This rule was established by Mayor Henry,
and, dnripg his term, was strictly enforcecf;
but now it seems to be treated with utter con***
jempt by the memhere of the police force;
The Democratic City Executive Committee

men are permitted to do as they please,a-much,
larger force than that recently asked for by
Mayor Fox will have to be employed to do
the legimate duty for them.
