SPECIACEDITI ON. SUN OFFICE, 7 P.M. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE INAR. (EEL TER'S TELEGRAMS.) r iVIPORTANT CIRCULAR OF M. JULES FAVRE. APPEAL TO THE KING OF PRUSSIA. PARIS, SEPT. 7. M. Jules Vavre, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, has addressed a circular to the French Diplomatic 3 4 1gellts abroad. In this circular he recalls the fact " .La ' he had energetically defended a policy of peace, r' had wished Germany to be left the mistress of Ilia own destenies, while the King of Prussia, on side, h a d declared that he made war not upon r anee, but upon the dynasty. M. Favre says The dynasty has fallen, and a free 'ranee has arisen. If the King of Prussia desires t° continue this imiious war he is free to assume responsibility the face of the world and of gis tcry. If that it his decision we accept it. We ' 4l ll not cede one inch of our territory nor one stone ° f our fortresses. A dishonourable peace wouid be a War of extermination at an early date. We will 111 3 , treat for a durable peace. Our interest is that urope, but were we alone we should not be ed. e' have a resolute army, well-provided forts, a itabli ' n ciutP. and, above all, we have lasts u, uok),MU combatants, determined to Lt till the last. After the forts we have the .ts, after the ramparts the barricades of Paris, can hold out three months- and conquer. 3 succumbs, France will rise up at the and avenge her. That is what Europe know. We have not accepted power with ,her object; we will not keep it a moment if -not find that the population of Paris atA the of France is decided to share our resolutions. an up, we desire peace, but if this disastrous to continue against us we shall do our duty unto th,. end, and I have the firm confidence that `lle cause of right and justice will triumph in the end." RUSSIA AND THE WAR. ST. PETERSBURG, SEPT. 7. The Journal de St. Petersburg tates that the Imperial Cabinet has officially declared that if is ledg e d to devote all its efforts towards shortening 4 nd localising the war, and to bring about an equit ahle and lasting peace. Its co-operation, therefore, in the endeavours to, effect this object will not be wanting to the neutral Powers. The journal states that the Imperial Government nevertheless, not permit any obstacle to be raised which might hinder its freedom of action. I) ROCLAMATION OF GENERAL TROCHU. PARIS, SEPT. 7.

PARIS, MONDAY EVENING 40 to 1 agst Tamarind (taken and offered) 500 to 7i agst Wild FloweJ (taken) In all probability London knew- as soon as Paris the real extent and character of the work transacted in thb Chamber yesterday, for it was not until the appearance of the morning's papers that the Parisians received any reliable details. The facts were not communicated to the French press until after midnight. The city to-day is very excited, but up to the time at which I write pe fectly orderly. By the vast majority of the citizens the constitution of the government is highly approved, and the fullest confidence is expressed in its powers and mo deration. Meetings are being held in every part'of the city, at which votes of confidence are unanimouslypassed, and promises of support made. The proposition to retain General Palikao was not carried, and he forms no part of the new Ministry. The fact that Rochefort is not included in the Government is giving offence to the extreme Re publican party, but they are somewhat mollified by his nomination to the National Defence Government. The papers generally give their unqualified approval to the new order of things ; while those which disapprove of Republican institutions declare that the Government needed now is the one which will take the shortest way from defeat to victory; and believing a Republican Ministry most capable of doing that, they accept it as best suited to the present circumstances. The nomina tions to the subordinate 'poSts in the Government are being rapidly proceeded with. M. Clement Taurier has been appointed Director-General of the Cabinet to the Minister of the Interior, M. Gambetta. At present everything appears to be working well. Upwards of twenty of the largest towns have pro claimed the Republic, and sent their adhesion to the new Government. The arms of the Emperor are everywhere being torn down, and this afternoon every emblem of the Empire which decorated the new opera were being re moved. Tb.e name of 1' Rue du Dix-DrScembre has been effaced, and in its place is inserted " Rue du 4 Septem bre." Processions of men and women continue to parade the boulevards, singing Republican' airs, but the general tranquility has not been disturbed. This morning the whole of the Garde Nationale were ordered to hold them selves in readiness for immediate action, but as yet their services have not been required. What effect, if any, the change in the form of govern ment will have on the war, it is difficult to conceive. But it is certain that no inconsiderable number of the people are anxious that peace should in some way or other be attempted. It is said that - as King William declared it was not against France that he made War, but against the Emperor, the empire having fallen, he should at once withdraw his troops. In the meantime the most stren uous efforts are being made to strengthen the army. A levee en masse is called. In all parts of the city men are being drilled, and the ordinary business of the place has entirely ceased. It is stated that 70,000 troops of the line will'immediately take up a position outside the forts on the western side of the city, to be reinforced each day by 10,000 to 13,000 others. _ _ _ THE BRITISH PRESS.-THIS MORNING. - The wounded are coming so fast to Paris that they are exhausting the ordinary means of succour, and a large number of wooden hospitals are being erected for their accommodation at Courcelles, about a mile within the fortifications. • It is estimated that there are at the present moment in the environs of Paris, and destined for the consumption of the citizens during the expected siege, not less than 220,000 sheep, 10,000 beasts, and 12,000 pigs. The daily consumption of meat by the city is estimated at 4,000 sheep, and 700 beasts. Live stock is being brought hi so fast that a difficulty will soon be felt in feeding it. A telegram just received says that Prussian scouts have been seen at Guignicourt, Toivre, and Fismes, in the Department of the Aisne. _ It is asserted that General Cardona, Commander-in- Chief of the Italian forces guarding the territory of St. Liege, has received orders to cross the frontier to-night and occupy Rome. The Bourse has been very depressed to-day, and Routes quoted as low as 53f. 10c., but closed slightly better. The agents of the Bourse are endeavouring to close the accounts of their clients and cease business. AMBASSADOR AT THE COURT OF ST. JAMES'S. -It is- stated on authority that M. Louis Blanc will be appointed by the New Republic Au bai sador for France at the Court of St. James's. The distinguished refugee will succeed the Marquis de Lavalette,:whose resignation was announced on Tees day. M. Blanc, who has long been an exile in England, has, left London for Paris to give his aid in the construction of the n ew Gov e rnment._Bir. mina/tam Gazette. An evening contemporary says: " We are autho rised to state that no official information has been received that such an appointment has been made or is contemplated." PROPOSALS OF PEACE. [The Times Berlin correspondent telegraphs the following :—Russia contemplates proposing a Con gress for restoring peace. Prussia is sure to decline. Prussia will probably ask Austria to explain the object of her armaments. Three South German capitals demand reunion with the North. The Munich Town Council petitioned the King of Bavaria to join the North German Confederation. The King, in reply, hopes that the war will secure a happy future for Bavaria and Germany. At Stutt gart a monster meeting of leading politicians 'and most respectable citizens demanded the immediate reunion with Northern Germany. Similar demon strations at Carlsruhe and Mayence.] THE FRENCH IN METZ. The Manchester Guardian publishes the following telegram, dated Luxemburg, Tuesday :—We have had news of the condition of the *French army in Metz. The soldiers are starving, and there are no means of getting provisions. Beef was selling last week at 10f. a pound. More than 1,000 armed peasants who had attacked a Prussian train on the night of the 31st ult. were captured by a Bavarian regiment. near Sommanthe. [REUTERS TELEGRAMS.] AMERICA. (By Atlantic Cable.)

THE TERMS OF PEACE. The Times remarks that Alsace and Lorraine—German Lorraine, or, in other words, the possession of Metz and a small strip of Lorraine, together with the Vosges and the whole of Alsace, are the very lowest terms on which the most peaceable •Germans are inclined to treat with France. They must have Metz, if for no other reason, because the present war has shown how formidable a fortress it can be in the hands of an enemy. They must have the Vosges, because this range is the natural boundary of Alsare ; and Alsace, and, above all things, Strasburg, the Germans are resolved to have. But it is right to repeat that there are very many in Germany whe will not be at all satisfied- with these terms. It is well known that the purely military strategists who surround the King of Prussia are far more exacting in their demands. They feel sure that their present successes win only embitter France still more against Germany. They ask, " Why leave an enemy any power to do you harm when you have' him once for all upon the hip?" With snob it is not surprising to hear of German Generals, and perhaps even German statesmen, who talk of running the future frontier between France and Germany on the lime of the Meuse, and making the defiles of the Argonne the boundary between the two countries. There is a pieoe of very old but yap good counsel which advises us to agree with our adversaries quickly, era our advice to France en this occasion is, says the Times, to come to toms as speedily as she can with Germany, even though those terms include the loss of Alsace, Metz, and a strip of Lorraine. TEE ANNEXATION OF ALSACE AND LORRAINE. The Teleg' rapit believes that the transfer of Alsace and Lorraine will be not a cause - of lasting peace~, but a pro bable cause of the renewal-sooner or later—of the war. No doubt the change will involve to France the loss of, say, a million or a million and a half of people. But can it be contended that France, with forty millions of inhabitants, ana in possession of her ancient fron tiers, is a serious danger to New Germany, with at least forty-five millions of an united people ; while France, with thirty-eight or thirty-nine millions, is no danger at all. We have no oontempt for strong places, yet surely this war has taught us that "strong places" are not always source's orstrength. Strasbourg certainly detains 60,000 Badeneee troops from the Gvman front, but Metz has simply been a snare and a trap for the bulk of the French " Army of the Rhine.* fad there been no such fortress at Meta, Bazaine would probably have retired six days earlier, and by retread" could have given time for bewildered France to organise her Wee en, Inane. Surely this war has shown also that German power lies in mind and heart mid muscle, not hi atone walls. Germany now posseSses Landau, liayence, 04_ lentz—three splendid positions close to her frontiers; but they have played no part in the war - Far from the protection of their walls, amid the vine-clad hills of France, German genius and courage have achieved what German forts could never compose the destruction of a gallant army, the defeat of an Empe ror, the overthrow of the military power of France. The best frontier defence for Germany yesitrday, to-d a y, an d for many a year, has been and will be the " thin blue line" that, from Weissenburg to Sedan, has been pushed ever onward into the very#jaws of death. No matter what happens, Germany is never likely again to make a merely defensive war, croulhing behind stone walls ; and if she advances into the open to fight, her strength will be in living valour, notin dead stone. THE REVOLPTIODI IN PAM. The Standard, in discussing the Revolution in rra „ ce , says : —ln estimating the oafiec - ity of Prai to offer further resistance to the invading armies, and thereffects of the step which the IrroooneileableS have taken, - F e e lost look at tifeir proceedings in the tight in vfiich 't.4y Cll naturally be regarded by the French nation, O ur own opinion is that \ Frame ought to acoept this Governe ment, and energetically suetain it so king es it carries out the programme to give effect to - which it professes to hi A re assumed power. 1 - 'anity as may be itos origin, it I s a Government which includes mei:n= l n Whom the nation feels confidence—a man whom general co:leen*, wisely or not, designates as the one to whom the great task of the day should be committed, 843 d, Dloll3oVer,, foolish as some of its decrees haLve been, totally regardless the rights of the French nation, in the modification of its constitution, as M. Favre‘ and his colleagues have slrown themselves, they still profess to be only a Government of transition, to have Wit one charge, and that the charge of the moment—the national defence.. TVs work accomplished as best it may be, they will, so they _say, leave it to the nation to establish lea new form of Government, and to chose the n to direct its affairs. Of course these are cheap and easy statements, but in the crisis in which France now finds itself—a crisis so seriously aggravated' by the course taken by the members of the new Provisional Government —it appears to us the duty of Frenchmen to put aside for the moment all questions as to the conduct of that Government, and to heartily aid it in the work of national defence, which it must be assumed to have undertaken in all sincerity, and with the resolve to spare no efforts to save the honour of France. AL Jules Favre and his party have now a glorious opportunity of proving that the suspicions so generally entertained of them are unjust. BANKRUPTS. In London.

CITY. TWO O'CLOCK The question as to the fate of Paris during the next few days exclusively commands attention, while, at the same time, the financial issues dependent upon it are not of a character sufficiently marked to incite speculative opera tions. With regard to nearly all descriptions of foreign securities, there is in every quarter a similar absence of any strong view as to the course of prices. India Stock is again 1 per cent. lower, making a a reduction of nearly 5 per cent. since the downfall of the empire. _ _ . The English Funds are A per cent. lower than last night, and all Indian securities are flat. The following are the prices ;—Consols, 91 to 914 for money, and 914 to. 92 for the 4th October ; New and Reduced, 901 to 901 ex div.; India Five per Cents., 1091 to 110. ditto Four per Cents., 92A to 100 ; ditto Ten-and-a-Half per Centl3., 204 to 206 ; ditto Bonds, 125., 20s. premium; Exchequer Bills, is., 6s. premium ; and Bank of England Stock, 234, 236. At a meeting of the Mutual Tontine (Westminster Chambers) Association (Limited), an interim dividend was declared at the rate of 3A per cent. per annum. The directors of the London and San Francisco Bank (Limited) have declared a dividend on account of 5 per cent., free of income tax. The Neue Freie Presse, in adverting to the recent events at Paris, states that the universal feeling at Vienna was one of depression, but that this lasted only a brief time. It was plain that the industrial resources of Austria must be brought into the greatest activity to meet the demand consequent upon the scarcity of skilled labour in Prussia. The Manchester markets this week have opened steadily. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(THIS DAY.) MURDEROUS ASSAULT. —Jane Law, described as a needlewoman, was charged before Mr. Knox, at the Marlborough-street Police-court, with violently assaulting Alexander Ross, an elderly man, a tailor. The com plainant deposed that yesterday morning he went into his room at No. 21, Dudley-street, when the prisoner, with whom he cohabited, asked him for the change of a shilling she had given him, and on his refusing to give it she struck him several times on the head with the pointed end of a pair of scissors, inflicting several severe wounds and smothering him with blood. He succeeded in wresting the scissors from her, and gave her into custody. He showed the scissors to the officer. The prisoner said she worked hard at staymaking, and her refusal to give money for drink caused a quarrel, during which the complainant fell, and struck his head against the fender. Remanded for a Week for the production of witnesses. CANNABALISM IN ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE-EAST. John Callaghan, an Irish tailor, aged 34 years, who has been in the Army, was brought up on remand, before Mr. Paget, at the Thames Police-court, charged with assault ing and wounding Mary Buckley, and biting off her under lip. The parties were living in Williams Court, St. George's - in-the-East. A woman who is cohabiting with the prisoner quarrelled with hi m , and he beat her. She ran into the house where Mrs. Buckley was then living for protec tion. The prisoner followed her, and Mrs Buckley got between the prisoner and his paramour to protect her. The prisoner, who was drunk and mad with rage, struck Mrs. Buckley and knocked her down on the stairs. He then fell upon her and fastened his teeth on her under lip, and bit it completely off. Mr. Paget said that more than one half of all the charges ever brought before him originated from excessive drink ing. His office would be almost a sinecure if there were no drunkenness. He sent the fellow to prison for six months. EIGHTY-FIVE TIMES IN CUSTODY.—Peter Connell, 50, a labourer, was charged at the Westminster Police-court, for the 85th time, with being drunk and riotous, and obstructing a constable -in the execution of his duty. The prisoner was found on Saturday night drunk and riotous, and locked up, the magis trate on Monday letting him go in spite of his 84th visit, and he was again taken into custody by Samuel Edwards and fined 21s. or a month, being locked up in de fault. His career is worthy of mention, and has extended since the time when the clothes of the prisoner were burned at a fire in the House of Correction in Coldbath fields, on which occasion Peter, with others, got a new suit on leaving the prison ; since that time he has seldom passed Saturday night out of gaol or police station, and has been known frequently to come into the Rochester-row station, on a Saturday night, lie down, and refuse to go, but insist on being locked up ; he has at length come from a decent hard-working position to a state of abject poverty, subsisting in jail, workhouse, and on charity. He has signed the pledge many times, but has latterly forgotten every principle of decency and sense, and is a horrid example of the vile effects of drunkenness. (CENTRAL PRESS TELEGRAMS.) ARRIVAL OF THE PRINCE IMPERIAL AT DOVER. The Prince Imperial, with his suite, arrived at ()stem' at half-past eight on,Monday, remained there all night,and crossed the Straits yesterday in the mail boat, Count de Flandres. He landed at Dover in;the afternoon, at half past one. The Prince, • who was accornpanied. by Com mander Duper() (son of Admiral Dupre) Major, Larnme, and Major Ferry, on lauding , was respectfully saluted by most of the spectators, and he frequently acknowledged their attentions by touching his hat. He was attired in a dark suit, and were a grey coat and an ordinary deer-stalking hat. He appeared to be in perfect health, and conversed freely with his Governor while walking up to the Lord ' Warden Hotel. Mr. Eborall, having received a telegram informing him of the proposed arrangements for the Prince Imperial leaving Dover, had come over from Folkestone and ordered a special train to be held in readiness to precede the mail train to convey his Imperial Highness to Hastings, vitt Ashford. During his stay at the Lord Warden Hotel the utmost privacy was observed, the Duc de Grarnont and the Mayor and Mrs. Bir mingham and family only having access to the Prince, but notwithstanding the desire to keep, his departure strictly private, great numbers of people assembled in all the avenues inside or outside the , station. As, attended by Mr. Eborall, he walked up the platform there was considerable cheering. The Prince, who was visably affected, on entering the carriage cor-, dially shook hands with the Mayor, Mr. Alderman Churchward, and othei gentlemen within reach. Mr.' Eborall, at the especial desire of the Prince, accompanied him in the Royal carriage to his destination. The Prince Imperial and suite arrived at the Marine Hotel, Hastings, at 5 p.m. THE IRON AND STEEL INSTITUTE. The Iron and Steel Institute half yearly meeting opened yesterday at Merthyr, the Duke of Devonshire in -the, chair. There was a large attendance, including the Mar quie of Bute, Lord Cavendish, Sir John A. Weyne, Mr. Richard Fothergill, M.P., Mr. 'William Rourden, Mr., Joseph Dodd, M.P., Mr. Robert Crawshay, Mr. Bessimer, the President elect, Mr. Menclans, and rwe sentatives from the coal and iron districts of Gieit**-:' tain, as well as visitors from kmeiica and other couniti4; Many valuable papers were read and discussed, one subject of special interest being the extension of light traffic railways. A large quantity, of light rails, it was stated were being shipped to the colonies and other parts. The members and visitors inspected the extensive works in the neighbourhood, and are to be entertained at a banquet by the local iron masters to-day. THE MEMBERS FOR rENRYN ON THE SITUATION. Messrs. R. N. Fowler and E. 13. Bostwick, the Conser vative members for Penryn and Falmouth, addresse4 their constituents at Penryn yesterdity. Mr. Fowler criticised the Government for atte*ting a foolish amount of legislation, such as it was totally impossible to oarry through Parliament ; and spoke _severely of Minis ters for being so oblivious of the coming storm on the Continent. Nevertheless, he cordially approved and willingly supported the principal Government mea sures of the session. One branch of the Ministerial policy, however, he strongly and em phatically oondemned ; the hostile attitude adapted by the Government toward the colonies would shake the foundations of the empire. Referring to the recent stir ring events in France, and the downfall of the empire, Mr. Fowler expressed great syMpathy for one. who for twenty years had been a good friend to England. England, however, must take care to observe strict riputrarity. It would be unwise for this country to involve herself in difficulty on account of a sentimental feeling as to which of the combatants was to possess Alsace and Lorraine. —Mr. Eastwick dwelt at some length and in strong terms on the present condition of the poor in this country. The problem it presented was of the sad dest interest. Among the labouring classes in England distress was more widespread, and, at the same time, deeper and more abiding than among Irish cottiers. There was, no work for them ; they were consequently destitute. How was it poeiible to remedy this? Was there any permanent remunerative employment by en gaging in which they would obtain relief or would they merely -want temporary work preparatory to emigration. CertaißW in the matter of education the Government had blundered, obsequious to manufacturers, whose advantage it was to 'have cheap labour, Ministers had dis couraged emigration ; so the labour market- continued overstocked. The hon. member also discUSsed the Poor Laws, and defended' his vote in support of the measure intended to confer female suffrage. Votes of confidence in both members were passed. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. An accident, attended with fatal results, tookylace on the Midland Railway, at Twogates, near Tainworth, on Monday evening, sth instant. John Ancott, aged 14, and three other boys, had been to get a wasp's nest, and were returning across the railway. A luggage train was Passing at the time, and the deceased Ancott, who went past the end of the train, did not perceive the 7 p.m express train coming until it was too late. The engine caught him by the heel of his boot, and he was thrown by the buffer down the embankment and killed immediately. COMMITTAL OF IRISH RIOTERS. Twenty-one persons, nineteen of whom are Catholics and the remaining two Protestants, have been committed for trial on the charge of complicity in--a party riot which took place at Strabane, in the county of Tyrone, onithe 19th of August last, on the occasion of the opening of an eSrange 1-3E7—Mat-Omagh. BRYNN HALL COLLIERY EXPLOSION. The inquest on the bodies of the persons killed in the Bryan Hall colliery explosion closed yesterday, when the jury returned a verdict that the explosion was caused by the ignition of gas by a blown-out shot. They recom mended the adoption of a mode of working by which less powder would be required, and also advised that a strict supervision should be exercised over powder conveyed into mines. They left it an open question whether the firing of the shot was accidental or not. AID FOR THE SICK AND WOUNDED. A branch of the National Society for rendering aid to the sick and wounded in the continental war has been established in Bath, and under its auspices about £450 has been raised. Besides this many presents of material have has been made to the committee, and six workrooms have been opened in different parts of the city. where parties of ladies meet daily, and engage in making lint, bandages, shirts, and other articles likely to be serviceable to the sufferers. THE REPRESENTATION OF SHREWSBURY. Commissioner Kerr, of London, and Mr. Charles Cecil Cotes, of Woodcote, Salop, are still the only candidates for the vacant seat of Shrewsbury in the Liberal interest. Mr. Douglas Straight, barrister, London, comes forward as the Conservative candidate. Mr. Kerr and Mr. Cotes are in favour of the ballot, abolition of religious test at universities, and a reduction of taxation to be effected without impairing the efficiency of the national defences. Mr. Straight is in favour of a reduction of taxation, but urges the placing of the army and navy in an efficient state. Efforts are being made to induce Mr. Kerr to withdraw. THREE FARMS BURNT DOWN. At seven o'clock on Monday, a fire, said t o o be the work of an incendiary, broke out on a farm at Hardwicke, a village about seven miles from Cambridge. A strong wind blowing at the time, and no means being at hand to stay the course of the fire, it spread to two others, which, with a workshop, were entirely burnt down. An engine went from Cambridge, but was not of much service. The efforts of the labourers, combined with a heavy rain fall ing, prevented it spreading to the outbuildings and the produce in the yards. The farms were in the occupation of Messrs. Hodson and Allen, and were said to be in sured. Orders have been received at the Royal William Victualling ,Yard, Devonport, to discontinue the manu facture of extra supplies of biscuit, which has been going on for some tim e p as t, an d t o e ff ec t th e immediate dis charge of the extra men taken on a month since. At the Liverpool Police-court yesterday Charlotte Elliot, a young woman from Ashford, Kent, was com mitted for trial on a charge of wilfully murdering her child a few days ago at Liverpool. The unfortunate ;woman had previously been committed for trial on the same charge by the coroner's jury. A POSSULE COMPLICATION. .The Paris correspondent of the New fork Herald has telegraphed to that journal, aimeuncing that he had seen a letter from a person high in office at St. Petersburg, stating that the Russian Government was seriously alarmed at the state of affairs in Poland,-? There is a great agitation in favour of France, and nut4eis of Poles are leaving to offer their services in the French -army. On the other hand a movement is on foot in the :daltic provinces of the Russian Empire in favour of annexation_ to the German Confederation, andis gaining ground. The Rus- SianG-overnment is on the horns of a dilemma. his be lieved that in self-defence Russia will be dompellbd to take part in'the war. 1:11 , ', 'REVOLUTION" IN 1. i.AN('F. The correspondent of the Ar,,,,,(7,7icst(i;' vtli iD(Y, 'vi , from Paris on Monday, says late On Saturd,ty nhjht the Council of Ministers, presided over by the Empress, was held at the Tuilerie4 to consider the sitlla',ion. Count Palikao, speaking in the . name of himself anel his col leagues, said there WibS no doubt of the intention of the itepnblican party to get tip a series of " manifestations" hOotile to the dynasty, but if her Majesty would con sent the Ministry would pledge themselves to put thet. down. The Empress -becaMe greatly excited,, aria` with tears replied she could not think of giving her consent to the employment of force, and would uo. permit a drop of French blood to be shedto retain hersell or hei family in their . positiOns. General Palikao aslsed her to reflect during the nigiht, aiid give them a final answer'next morning. A second council was held at half 134=st'ithr blithe following day (Sunday), and on the ques tion:being put to the Empress, she made this memorable reply; " I persist in my refusal ; I prefer pity to power." THE SIEGE OF METZ. The correspondent of the Telegraph with the Prua4ian army before Metz, writing on the 30th August, Faye : " Aletter'from Marshal Bazaine, commanding the French army in Metz, has just fallen into the hands of the Prus siAns. It is addressed to his wife, and is sufficiently inte resting.- He says :—'As far as I am ooncerned j. l shall await the course of events. My • army is en- tirefy with me, and as `soon as Napoleon shall haTie . been dealt with as he deserves, I shall be prepared to' disclose certain propositions which he 'l.as made to me that will at once place me in a proper position with the new Government.' So much for French gratitude. The state of affairs at present is one that is not a little puzzling. The Prussian army surround ing Metz are prepared to bpmbard it to-morrow, and if necessary reduce it to a hap of ru4is. We know that the French army, in number some 145060, are dying of disease and hunger, that erphus and cholera are raging in the town, and yet the Prussian army corps lay perfeetlykactive around, hot a single gun in position. Add to this the curious inacti; vity of the army of the Crown Prince, whZ, we hear, is doing well, but in great want of 'provisions, and there it, grave food for thought. Is it that diplomacy, that pro crastination of everything, has commenced to exert its influence, and that soldiers are to starve to death or die of disease, whilst politicians quibble over the stops of a sentence or the phraseology of a paragraph ror is the world not yet oontent with the carnage of the last five weeks ? It is evident that something is taking place of which we know nothing ; but I sincerely hope that the army of Prince Friedrich Carl, or the armysfif Metz, will do something more than watch the French working parties upon Mont St. Quentin, and that a grie vous quest' ai will in a very short time be brought to such a settlement as will ensure the peace andkprosperity of Europe." AUTUMN FLOWER SHOW AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE. The first Flower Show under the auspices of the Metro- . politan Floral Society was opened yesterday at the Crystal Palace, and, taken generally, must be acknow ledged a success. The show was not on quite so large a scale, certainly, as might have been expected, but, taking into consideration the weather which has been expe rienced, every allowance must be made in this respect, and the promoters have the satisfaction of knowing that many of the best-known florists from all parte of the kingdom have entered the ranks as competitors. The show was entirely confined to cut flowers, and the perfec tion in which they were exhibited is really marvellous. By far the largest collection is that of dahlias, there being no less than seven classes, four open to nurserymen and three confined to amateurs. The most note worthy is the competition in which each ex hibitor sends a collection of forty-eight dis similar blooms, and the palm is carried - off by Mr. J. Keynes, of Salisbury, Mr. H. May, of Bedale, being second. Mr. Keynes also figures as the first prize winner in the Class P., 24 fancy dahlias, with Mr. May again as second, whilst the amateur exhibitors are well up to the mark. There is a considerable show of hollyhocks, gladiolus, and asters, both French and Ger man, but the display of verbenas and roses is somewhat limited. In the leading class for the latter, the first prize was awarded to Messrs. Paul and Son, Cheshunt. Th. few table decorations shown are exquisitely arranged, and Miss Hassard, of St. Romans, Norwood, deservedly takes first honours. A number of seedling dahlias form an interesting part of the show, and first class certificates have been awarded among others to Mr. Keynes and Mr. Hobbs, while Messrs. Rownie, Laird, and Laing, of Forest Hill, receive a similar recognition for their new palangonium " Park Queen." The judges have also awarded special certificates to Messrs. Carter and Co., of High Holborn and Forest-hill, and to Messrs, Downe, Laird, and Laing, for their beautiful; collections of plants, both foliage and iu bloom, which r, were the admiration of all who witnessed the show. The weather being unpropitious, the number of visitors yester day was by no means large ; but as the exhibition remaiva open until Thursday night, we anticipate the two las days will see a largely-increased company. The number of visitors resent was 5,37 L The Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone arrived in town last evening from Walmer Castle. Eard Granville also arrived in town. livo boys named Brown and Symes, who were keeping oafs yesterday near Loden, Bridport, tied themE‘elves to the animals. The beasts refusing to be restrainetT`ran away, and dragged their keepers to death. WORICILEN 2 S INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, la7O. —AGRICULTURAL HALL, ISLINGTON, September 6.—The number of visitors, exclusive of seasoj ticket holders, exhibitors, and others, on the 6th inst., was 4,335. Mr. Chilte . g, who, e'xcept,,for a very short ime, has continued to be at the Admiralty ever since the prorogation, will leave town to-morrow, his medical advisers having ordered entire rest from work for three or fair weeks. Lord Lytton, aocordiiig to the Athenmum, is en gaged upon a new novel. This statement, in point of fact, however, has no fouudation. The great author is engaged, neverthelessbve are glad to know, in the revision of a new edition of his epic of "King Arthur," an edition de luxe, now very shortly to be pulags ed. with illustrations. 'Tr Due DE GRAMONT.—The Due de Gramont, gho arrived in Dover on Mopday, received a telegram yesterday fro qa Madame de Gramont that she had arrived in London, vig Havre and Southampton, and he proceeded to London to join her by tilts mail-boat train. The Derwa.ger Duchess de Gramont and the . Duke's sister are still in Paris, but are expected to arrive in Dover. BtoTTROFOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS.--It is RlAU that Mr. Deputy Lowman Taylor will be put for ward as a candidate for the vacant chairmanship of this board. Mr. Taylor has, been a leading _and useful mem ber of the board from its commencement, representing in that capacity the Corporation of London. lit has been moreover, a conspicuous member of the Court of Common Council for about twenty-five years, awl was ono of the old Metropolitan Commission of Sewers which preceded the present board. Ile is likewise a magistrate for Mid' dlesex and Westminster. DEATH 07 MR. SELFR.--Wo regret to announce the decease of Henry Selfe Selfe, Esq., barrister-ab-law, and fol.-seven years one of the presiding magistrates at the Westminster Police-court. He was taken ill a month ago, and althvgh for years a sufferer with the gout, no unfavourable symptoms appeared till a week ago, but it was then evident that he would succumb to a violent attack of general debility, and yesterday, at one o'clock, he breathed his last. He was 59/years of age, and leaves a wife, sister to the present ArChbishop of Canterbtu7, and several children, one of whom is at the bar, and another a captain in the Royal Artillery at Bombay. CRYSTAL PALACE.—The Autumn Flower Show will be continued to-day and to-morrow (Thursday). On the latter day there will be a grand display of fireworks (including the blowing up of the Bridge of Kehl, &c.), and an opera, " Masaniello." As a proof qf the popu larity of the Crystal Paalce Pyrotechnic Diskiays, it may be stated that over 58,000 visitors have been Lent on the two last occasions. CACAOINE.—Cacoa nibs, on the removal of the oil, fall into powder, and this powder is cadoine. Cadoine contains neither sugar nor any other admixture whatever. Csdoine makes one of the lightest, thinnest of warm drinks, and is the most de• sirable of all for use in the later hours , of the day. Cadoine, by reason of the ingenious method by which the oil is removed, pre, serves all the line natural flavour of cacao nibf.—Prepared only by James.
