The tombs were used as ramparts for the enemy, and the iron crosses which were on- the monuments have been broken up to serve for grape-shot. The moral condition of the poople is more distressing to witness than the serious havoc committed by the enemy o'n the walls of the town and the surrounding country. The old city has long lost all remembrance of its German origin, and its inhabitants feel that the Germans can never restore to them their old associations, their books and manuscripts which they preserved with such scrupulous care, above all they cannet restore to them the friends and relations who have fallen during the sad and severe struggle. The different feelings which animate the minds of the two races, the conquerors and the conquered, may be best analysed by the recollection that they refer to the Test and the future. The Frenchman mourns over the relic of his splendid city, so rich in historic associations, and so promising in its prosperity ; while the German turns from the ruins of the present to contemplate the grandeur of the future. These eager and curious visitors, who crowd in hundreds to feast their eyes on the Strasburg disaster, are gazing, as they think, on the new capital of the Duchy of Ba ien, and a perhaps pardonable feeling of exultation arises as they realise the full extent of their recent triumphs. An impartial and unprejudiced observer can make full allowances for both sides, but the representation of Strasburg and its surrounding scenery just now affords a striking illustration of the price that must be paid for a "glorious victory."

PROSPECTUS. This CompSny has been formed for the purpose of establish ing a powerful line of steamers from London to the Cape, Algoa Bay, and Port Natal. The steamers are intended to sail once a month, or oftener if required, from London, and will call at a port in the Channel to embark passengers, calling also at Madeira and St. Helena, outwards, and homewards at Capetown, St. Helena, and Madeira, performing the voyage, it is expected, each way in 35 days, under steam. Favourable contracts have been provisionally entered into with good builders for the construction of the required steamers, as also with the managers and loading brokers for conducting the business of the company. ._ . .. _ .. _ Special attention has been paid to the accommodation of pas sengers, which will be replete in every respect, and a superior table provided. The Eastern Province of the Cape Colony has long expressed a wish thata good line of powerful steamers should be established to and from London, on which they could rely for regularity, speed, and accommodation. The following tabular statement of the export of wool alone to London from the Cape Colony will' chew the rapid stride in the commerce of the colony, and the opening for further steam communication : In 1834 the Cape Colony exported 694 bales Wool. 1839 „ 8,247 „ 1844 PP 8,659 1849 „ 18,766 „ 1854 I/ 27,626 „ 1859 ~ 48,205 1864 „ 69,809 „ 1868 141,916 PP The above does not include exports from Natal. A large intercolonial trade is carried on between Natal and the ports in the Cape Colony, which it is intended to take ad vantage of, besides the direct cargo for London. Promises of support have been given by shippers of wine from the Island of Madeira. It is expected that the recent discovery of diamonds in the colony will also add considerably to the usual passenger traffic, for which the steamers of this Company will be admirably con structed, and will add materially to the profits of this under taking. To facilitate this emigration, arrangements have been made with parties on the other side .to convey diamond seekers to the diamond districts at a low rate, thus enabling the Company to issue through tickets. Owing also to the recent improvements in machinery for the saving in the consumption of fuel, a considerable reduction will be effected in the usual working expenses of steamers. Careful estimates have been made of the probable expenditure and earnings of the steamers, and from the large support that has been promised, both here and abroad, the directors confi dently anticipate that the shareholders will receive a handsome re ,uneration for their investment. The Union Company, whose steamers run from Southampton to the Cape, have paid good dividends, although they have had to pay the carriage or cargo to and from London to Southamp ton, which amount this Company will save. The Directors and their friends have already agreed to take a large number of shares in this undertaking. No promotion money has been, or will be, paid for the forma tion of the Company. _ _ Applications for Blares to be addressed in the accompanying form to the managers, N. Griffiths, Tate, and Co., 4, East India avenue, but no application will be considered unless a deposit of £2 for each share applied for shall have been previously made with the bankers of the Company. In the event of no allotment being made, the whole of the deposit wiltbe returned. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. To the Directors of the Cape and Natal Steam Navigation Company. (Limited).

Whatever may be the 'ultimate fate of the Loire Army, there can be no doubt that its first operations were conducted with great skill. The force which compelled der Tann to retreat was in such a wretched condition a short time ago that Bourbaki refused to have anything to do with it. General Aurelles de Palatine was more courageous. He accepted, the command, - and by shooting - every soldier who mis behaved, soon restored obedience. The organisation was improved, artillery and equipments procured. At length the French leader took the field, and by accumulating a great preponderance of force, threatened to intervene between Der Tann and Paris. The Bavarian leader was too quick to be thus trapped, but he was beaten with loss and driven back. The net result of the two days' fighting was that Aurelles de Paladinie interposed between der Tann and the army of Prince Frederick Charles ad vancing from Metz, and was at liberty to at tack the former singly, if he thought fit. The French fought well ; and what is likewise. admirable, the newspapers, though indulging in a little exaggeration, discussed the business, on the whole, with commendable moderation. THE TREATY OP PARIS. It is yet early to speculate on the exact nature of the attitude assumed by Russia in respect of the Paris Treaty, but it is quite certain that the old Eastern Question is in the "reopened" condition.. The intelligence, so far as it goes, looks serious. The demands which Russia may put forth may refer to Articles XL and .XIII. By the first .of these the Black Sea is declared open to all mercantile shipping and closed to all vessels of war. By the second Russia and Turkey engage not to maintain any marine arsenal upon the shores 'of the Sea. By conventions signed on the 30th of March, 1856, and annexed to the treaty the Sultan bound himself so long as he remained at peace to admit no ship of war of any foreign Power . to enter thcj Straits of the Dardanelles and the Bo•phorous, thus closing the egress from t e Black Sea to the Russian fleet; while Russia engaged not to maintain in the Black Sea more than six war steamships of 800 tons at the maximum, and tour light steamers of war not exceeding 200 tons each. If the important statement in the Yorkshire Post be correct, Russia must indeed be fully committed to the revision or violation of the treaty. According to that statement,Russia has formally announced to the British Government that she will be no longer bound by the provisions of 1856. She must, in taking this step have suroly reckoned upon the hostility of Austria. This Power *as well nigh joining the allies in the Crimean war, and the inducements for her to resist Russian aggression now are much stronger. In 1854 Austria, was the leading German State, and cared little comparatively for the questions which then led to war. Now she is scarcely a German State at all, and her Danubian interests are paramount. THE CROWN OF SPAIN. 'rho Duke of Aosta seems to have a better chance of reigning in Spain than any candidate who .has yet come forward. A large party support him, and there is no hostility shewn by any European state. Nevertheless the Duke's course is by no means clear. The Republicans of course oppose him ; so do the Carlists, for the clerical party would go any length, to defeat the son of King Victor Emmanuel, the spoliator of the Church. These two parties are weak singly ; united they may be formidable. There was a tre mendous uproar when the candidature was 'dis cussed in the Cortes the other , day. Several Repub licans openly threatened an appeal to the sword. If Prim, however, keeps faithful it is difficult to see how such opposition can succeed; but, stran,geto say, rumours are current that he will not be faithful. Some French correspondents tell a strange story about his organising opposition to the candidature he himself proposed. Prim looks after a King, they say, in order to satisfy public opinion; but he, at the same time, entertains no desire to abdicate the posi tion of supremacy he now holds; and so, whilst openly advocating the Duke, he is plotting his discomfiture. It is true that Marshal Prim is now virtually King of Spain, and that when a full-grown prince comes to the throne the author of the September revolution must shine with diminished lustre, but it remains to be seen whether this con viction has led to the extraordinary escapade which the French papers attribute to him. Outwardly the candidature has been conducted in the most regular manner, and with the utmost earnestness on the part of Prim. The Duke ac cepted the offer on November Ist with the consent of his father. Immediately afterwards a circular notifying the occurrence was sent to the Spanish representatives at foreign courts. According to an official notice in the Madrid Gazette the Governments of Russia, France, Prussia, Portugal, Holland, Turkey and Austria expressed their warm approval through their representatives. The Pope hoped the election of a king might secure to Spain tranquillity, prosperity, and religion. Lord Gran vine wae, cautious in his communications. He said that if the candidateship of the Duke of Aosta was agreeable to the Spanish nation, her Majesty's Government would see it accepted with pleasure. I. ater on the Spanish Minister in London wrote word that he had received Lord Granville's congra tulations on the presentation of the Duke's candidateship to the Cortes, which he will be glad to hear is agreeable to the nation. SIR COLMAN O'LOGHLEN. Sir Colman O'Loghlen, whose bankruptcy has led to his resignation, has not enjoyed a long tenure of office and the 22,000 a year which accompanies the post of Judge Advocate General. He was appointed, by the accession of the Glad stone Government, in December, 1868. His career in Parliament, too, bas not been a lengthy ono He was first returned for Clare County in July, 1863. In 1840 he joined the bar, in 1852 became Queen's Counsel, in 1865 Serjeant at-Law. Sir Colman has always practised a moderate but consistent Liberalism. A RFAS FOR RUBBISH. General Codrington, of Crimean celebrity, makes an odd complaint of the Luton magistrates. These vigorous' men have treated the "habitual criminals" who come within tlieir gates with such rigour that the race is positively diminishing. The result is highly satisfactory to Luton, but very disgusting to General Codrington, for some of the " habi tuals " 'have sought a refuge from their woes by enlisting. . The gallant officer loudly com plains of this emptying of the Luton cesspool into the army. " Who is to help the army when its recruiting is•thus tainted at its very source ?" It might be suggested that the army must help itself,_ and keep rubbish out of its own ranks. It is plain that the Luton criminals, if driven out of their uncomfortable home, must go somewhere. It is for the military authpritios to take care that the "moral cesspool " is not emptied on their land. If every town is to keep its stock of criminals on hand for fear Of mak ing mischief elsewhere, what is to become of the Habitual Criminals Act ? THE SPREAD OF SCARLET FEVER. The ravages committed by scarlet fever continue to excite serious attention. There is reason to believe that the carelessness, ignorance, or indifference of those who have charge of the sick are too often the means of disseminating the disease. A physician pointe out that scarlatina is not only the most con tagious of the eruptive fevers, but those attacked by it are liable to spread infection long after they mix again wi th their family and friends. Until the new skin is thoroughly formed, and the old skin has com pletely peeled off, they carry contagion wherever they go. Everything they wear, especially if it be woollen, all •carpets, blankets, and bed furniture they have used in their rooms, and even the wall papers of the rooms they inhabit, become infected for an indefinite' time by the minute particles of cast=off skin. It is therefore essential that all blankets and woollen articles should be ' thoroughly washed apart from everything else, that the floor of the patient's room should be disinfected, and the paper of the walls stripped off. and burnt. The patient himself should be kept strictly isolated until the new skin is thoroughly formed. .If these precautions be resolutely observed by all persons who have the charge of the sick, there can be little doubt but that the prevalence of this dangerous and fatal disease would be very greatly diminished. WHAT CONSTITUTES A LODGER. At Ilford a publican was summoned for serving an omnibus conductor with beer during the prohibited hours on a Sunday. The evidence shewed that the defendant's servant supplied the drink to the con ductor, and in defence it was argued that the man lived more at the Swan than at his own home, which was onlysoo yards away. He lived in what was denominated the 'bus-room, which he used for domestic purposes, having all his meals therein. The defend ant's solicitor held that, putting a fair construction upon the law, the 'bus-conductor was a lodger. The Bench took that view of the case, and the summons was dismissed. A great many habitual fuddlers will be delighted to hear of this decision. They, too, live more at the " house " of their affections than at their own homes. A NOVEL SEIZURE. The sheriffs of Clare and Galway have instituted a new method of seizing property for debt, which canno t but make the general travelling public at least uneasy. Who can tell henceforth whether they can ever reach their journey's end by train after the stoppage of the engine and carriages on the Athenry and Ennis line on Saturday It would seem that the proprietary company were debtors for a sum of £3,500 to Mr. William Munro, the constructor of the line. The arrested train was carrying the mails, and the forwarding of the letter bags by other conveyances to Ennis, from the station where the train was stopped, c fused a delay it is alleged of five hours. The whole business, if not positively illegal, reflects discreditably on the pro moters of the seizure. Why the train could not have been appropriated at either of the termini of the rail way, or why passengers should be made to suffer for a debt owed by a company over whose lines they were travelling, and with which debt they had no connection whatever, are questions that the managers of the London City Bank who sued on behalf of Mr. M unro ought to explain. THE INCREASE OF WRECKS. Mr. Henry Jenla, whose name is so well known in connection with wreck statistics, thinks it desi rable to ascertain, if possible, the reason for the increasing number of shipwrecks and maritime disasters. The first point to examine is how far the increase can be accounted for by the development of our mercantile marine. Mr. Jeula finds that in 1864 we had 26,142 registered sailing vessels, while in 1869 they numbered only 24,187, or a reduction of 7.48 per cent. Steamers, on the other hand, increased from 2,490 to 2,972, or at the rate of 19.36 per cent. The total of sailing vessels and steamers in the five years. shews reduction of 1,473 vessels, or 5.14 per cent., the total tonnage increasing 1.53 per cent. The wrecks, on the contrary, rose from 1,390 in 1864 to 2,114 in 1869, or in the startling proportion of 52.09 per cent. Collisions showed an increase of 31.34, and other casualties of ' 59.10. The actual decrease in the number of vessels entered and cleared, and the large increase in casualties, call for the dis covery of definite reasons. It is very desirable that these facts should be kept prominently before the public notice, since men are apt to set all disasters at sea dOwn to uncontrollable causes, and consequently many glaring errors and deficiencies connected with our ships, which might otherwise be remedied, are passed by unnoticed. LUSH SYMPATHY WITH THE POPE. A series of meetings have been arranged to take place in Ireland, for the purpose of demonstrating sympathy with the Pope. The first gathering will doubtless be at Dublin, and Cardinal Cullen will preside. The conduct of the Italian Government is, of course, strongly denounced, and the object of the intended manifestations will be to exert such pres sure upon the English Cabinet as will compel it to procure from Italy '•such a recognition of the sove reign rights of the Pope as will secure his spiritual dominion, and enable him to prdmulgate his decrees on points of faith with at least the semblance of his former authority." E➢IIGRATION TO CANADA. The Government of Quebec has ordered the pub lication of a pamphlet on emigration. It is to be circulated in England and other parts of Europe in order to stimulate the exodus from the Old World to Canada. A very flattering account does the pamphlet contain. It says " there is ample work for willing hands, and the labourer is here well paid, because his labour is in good demand." We are told that the affluence and ease which in Europe represent the labours of successive generations, are often achieved in Canada by the exertions of one man, who perhaps landed in the country without money or friends, but who in the space of 15, 20, or 30 years, became possessed of almost princely wealth. The population of Canada is rapidly increasing, rising from three millions in 1861 to four millions at the present ;time. l'he climate is pronounced the best in North America. A vigorous appeal is made to workmen, however slender their means, to go over; for though the small capitalist has the best chance, the mechanic and the labourer may none the less prosper. The new homestead law is very favourable to settlers who take a grant of land, secur- mg them for ten years against all risk of having those articles seized and sold which fire essential to their comfort and the cultivation of their farms. The great difficulty which besets the Quebec Government is, not to prove that Emigration to Canada is advantageous, but to convince working men that they cannot do better in the United States, O A 4A) s *i eflrjg LONDON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1870. TROUBLES seem thickening on the political horizon. As if it were not enough to have one European war of disastrous extent and indefinite consequences raging without any immediate prospect of con clusion, we are threatened with at least the possibilities of two more. Russia, there appears little room to doubt,lis seizing the favour able opportunity for reviving the Eastern question, and agitating for a revocation of the Treaty of 1856. In Spain the candidature of the young Duke d'AosTA is encountering strong opposition in more than one quarter, and it is even hinted that PRIM himself; while openly supporting the candidature, is secretly conniving at the opposition, being desirous of retaining his present influence and authority. It may be indeed a comparatively unimportant question who fills the throne of Spain, but we cannot forget that the mere question of the candidature has already flung op en the gates of JANus, and it is impossible to see into what fresh imbroglio new diplomatic negotiations may lead us. Lord GRANVILLE has shewn consi derable caution in recognising the candidature, if we are to judge from the Protocol given by the Madrid Gazette. "If the candidateship of the Duke," says the English Foreign Minister, "is agreeable to the Spanish nation, her MAJESTY'S Government will see with the greatest pleasure that his Highness is accepted as King of SPAIN, and a communication in this sense has been sent to her MAJESTY'S Minister at Florence." Meanwhile, in the Cortes, CASTELAU, the Liberal orator, has made one of his most eloquent and powerful speeches against the unlucky Duke, whom he declares to have less raison d'etre than any of the : other candidates, representing neither traditionary monarchy, popular freedom, the rights of the people, or the prejudices of the clergy. Whether the applause which greeted his fervent declamation in the .Chamber will find a response in the country at large, or whether it was merely a tribute to the impassioned eloquence of the speaker, remains to be seen, but in any case there are sufficiently discordant elements in Spain to give or lookers very serious uneasiness. THOSE who wish to appreciate `.the horrors of war to the full extent, should visit. the scenes which have been most noted in the struggle, some little time after the affair, is decided ono way or the other. It seems already an age since Strasburg surrendered, so quickly have the events of this exciting time followed one upon the other, and the picture of desolation' which the city and its environs present is one of extreme desolation. The contrast that is presented between the smiling villages of Baden and the burned up , country of Alsace is well described by a French journalist who passed two days in travelling in the vicinity of the recent strife. Strange as it may appear, however, this melancholy scene is not altogether . produotive of sad reflection, and we hoar that the road from Kehl to Strasburg is crowded with Germans of all ranks and ages who rush there en masse to dwell on the spectacle of ruin and victory which Strasburg affords them. The influx of visitors is so great that the railways have put on extra trains to accommodate the passengers. All the Duchy of Baden appears to flock there on. a Sunday, and whole villages press forward to join in the excitement. The route from Strasburg to the Rhine is fr.ll Of the brilliant equipages of Baden-Baden, and the travellers who are returning home are unwilling to depart until they have witnessed the effect of the bombardment of the famous city. Some of the Germans display the greatest satisfaction at the scene befoi‘e. them, and in the exultation of their own great triumph, have forgotten the respect that was due to misfortune and the natural feelings of sorrow which the eight of so much suffering and desolation should call forth. Apart from the horrors of the scene, which reveal the past days of endurance and hardships, ending in (Lath and devastatiOn;• the present attributes of the place are extraordinary, and 1 seem to speak of a new leaf turned in the book of history. The German ?flag waves over the old cathedral, and soldiers of the Landvfehr guard 'the entrance to. the town. The most awful change which has been wrought by the war is in the cemetery, where the repose of the dead has not been THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH'S SHIP. In the Indian papers we meet with a brief descriptiVe account of the Galatea's cruise to Wellington Harbour, which occupied forty-four days, from the Cape of Good Hope. In the nava tivo the officer contributor says :—" The Galatea has shown that she can roll as heavily as an iron-olatif and we have been in a continual state of anxiety as to our ability to keep her right." Se - meth/Pg . was likewise reported wrong with the rudder posts. At a time when, we at home have just realised the extent•of disaster that may ensue from faults in ou r vessels of war, this intelligence respecting the shiP commanded by the sailor Prince is at least alarming. "We may, however, feel assured that every care will be taken of the crew of the Galatea, from a stater. meat made by the same officer who chronicles the vessel's faults. He thinks that as the ship has sailed over 48,000 miles since she was last in dock, it is probable many serious defects will be found in her, and consequently the officers and men expect to spend a long visit at Syd ney, "instead of among - the islands." One of the chief members of the Galatea's Company, We are informed, is the Duke of Edinburgh's elephant , who appears after his long sea voyage as "lively as a kitten," and who shews every sign of thriving on his "favourite drinks of cocoa, and bottled porter." TIIE ALLEGED 0 L TBREAK AT A.LLAHABAD. Notwithstanding the very circumstantial accounts concerning the alleged insubordination at Allahabad , we have it on the authority of the Commander-in. Chief that nothing has reached him, either publicly or privately, that could give a shadow of foundation for the injurious reports regarding the con' duct of the 4th Native Infantry. It was said that the enforcement of the Contagious Diseases Act amongst the women whom th e soldiers regard as their second wives, was the cause of the insubordination ; but this statement /3 authoritatively denied. Lord Napier, in a general order, sympathises with Lieutenaut-Colonel Stubbs and the officers and men of the regiment in the feel ing of distress with which they learnt the nature of these reports. As a mark of his entire confidence in the regiment, and his sympathy with them, his Excel lency has notified that his personal escort during his tour in Assam and Cachar will be selected froth the 4th. THE BABOO KESHtB CHUNDER SEN IN INDIA. Those people in England who so recently made their homes hospitable to the Indian ret'ormer, and those of us who facilitated his earnest endeavours to teach us our duty, not only towards India, but towards ourselves, will receive with pleasure the following account of what Mr. Sen said before the first meet ing he has addressed in India since his return : Whatever the shortcomings and defects of the English nation may be, I have seen in that country a noble and a generous heart in the root of society. Let people traduce the character of that nation who have not had an oppor tunity to divebeneath the surface of things, but those Whe have studied English character as it is, must see that there is an amount of generosity and nobility there which cannot fail to excite our sympathy and interest and approbation. I do not think there is in any other part of the world such a thing as a sweet English home. Its sweetness, its purity must command our respect. You see there not merely worldly happiness, temporal matters well managed , daily household duties accompanied with fidelity and honourable integrity, but you see there the spirit of moral righteousness and purity infused into the daily life, even into the petty details of daily transactions. This domestic life in England—essentially British domestic life in England—is not only sweet but pure; there is not onlY joy and happiness on the one hand, but there is also a stern and severe moral discipline exercised by the elder members of the family, by parents over children. It would appear from this description that there Was a great deal of English domestic life which Mr. Sep did not see. OUTRAiIES IN CHINA. Another outrage has taken place in China, but this time the consequences have not been so serious• An enzeute broke out at Fatshan, on the Pearl River, a short distance from Canton. As usual in these disturbances the subject of dispute was a religious one. The native Christians had built a chapel at Fatshan entirely by their own subscriptions, and were not indebted to the assistance of missionaries. An opening ceremony was designed to take place on its completion, and some Protestant missiona ries and converted natives were desired to attend. Dr. Legge, the head of the mission, prudently declined the invitation. Mr. Chalmers, of the London Mission, delivered the sermon, but he left the place at an early hour, to which circumstance he probably owed his life The mob assembled in the evening/ and complained of the manner in which the chapel arrangements were conducted. Expostulation was in vain, and in a short time the building was broken into and destroyed. The converts were able to escape and no loss of life occurred. The consuls will have little cause for interference, as the church was Chinese property, and no foreigners sustained in juries. No effort was made to extinguish the fire, for the firemen refused to assist at the chapel, and directed their attention to the houses in the vicinity. Fatshan is well known for its opposition to mis sionaries; and the Wesleyan missionary has been little there of late. v irr I 4" , (P . '4' _ ZlrCrii i4 Wr C 4,10 HER •MAJESTY. BALMORAL, Nov. 12.

A. SUGGESTION FOR PEACE. TO THE EDITOR OF " THE SUN." feel assured there is only one universal desire amongst all classes of Her Majesty's subjects concerning the fearful war that is now raging on the Continent, that peace should be hastened and completed by every means consistent with the honour and integrity of Germany and Fra ace. As a contribution towards the solution of that most difficult question, I trust you will allow me to make the following remarks in The Sun. France is said to have made Germany two offers-Ist, A complete indemnification of all her war expenses ; and, secondly, the entire dismantling of all her forts in Alsace and Lorraine. The war expenses up to the present time, it is assumed, cannot be less than two hundred millions of pounds sterling. These offers Germany has refused, but it occurs to me that she might be satisfied if a third were added to them, viz. :—That Alsace and Lorraine might be held by her as pledges or guarantees for a definite period, say ten years, when France would probably be able to redeem her debt. Moreover, by the end of that period, those two pro vinces would become accustomed to the German form of Government, and they might then elect the power under which they would thereafter live. If those two provinces were annexed at the present time against the universal wishes of France, it is the opinion of some of the best men in Germany and France that they would become a Poland to Germany, so deter mined, as is well known, is their hostility to German rule.
