The Moniteur of yesterday contains the following
telegraphic despatch, received by the Minister of
Foreign Affairs from the French Minister at Berne :
" BERN; Sept. 3.—To-day, at two o'clock in
the morning, an insurrection broke out at Neuf-
chatel. The mountaineers of the Val de Verrieres
surprise-1 the city and the castle. Messrs. Piaget
and Humbert, with several other officials of the
canton, are their prisoners. It is said that the
Royalist party is at the head of the movement.
The republicans of the Chaux-de-Fonds are march-
ing in a column to deliver their chiefs and retake
the city. The federal council has charged Vice•
President Fornerod and Colonel Frei-Herose to
proceed to the spot, where as federal commissioners
they will re .establish the authority of the Govern.
ment. Four battalions and a few pieces of artil-
lery from the camp at Yuerdun are placed at their
disposal. The vanguard is expected to reach the
Neufchatel territory by 4 o'clock this afternoon.
It is hoped that they will arrive in time to prevent
any collision in the streets of Neufchatel between
the republicans of the Chaux-&-Fonds and the
mountaineers of Verrieres, who have entrenched
themselves behind barricades."
Later and authentic accounts have been received
stating that the castle and town of Neufchatel were
recaptured by the republican mountaineers of Neuf-
chatel, without the aid of the Federal power. It is
said that in this operation 12 of the Prussian party
were killed.

The royalist movement having thus utterly failed,
it is exceedingly unlikely that any further conflict
will take place, as the federal authority will un-
doubtedly take precautions against renewed vio-
lence.

FRANCE.
PARIS, FR/D.A.Y EVENING.
The Emperor and Empress (says the Messager of
Bayonne) were to have taken a marine excursion
on Monday on board the Newton, but in conse-
quence of the storm which blew during the previous
night it was deferred. In the afternoon their Ma-
jesties took a walk towards the lighthouse of
Biarritz. On passing before a small cottage on
the downs their Majesties saw a poor woman who
was sitting at the door with a child in her arms,
and crying piteDusly. On being questioned as to
the cause of her grief she said that her child was
very ill, and would die for the want of medical
assistance. The Empress as a mother entered
into the feelings of the poor peasant, and told
her to follow her with her child, at the same
time telling her not to give way to despair. Their
Majesties walked hastily towards the villa, fol-
lowed by the peasant woman, and the physician of
the Prince Imperial being sent for, semi prescribed
for the sick child. The Empress dismissed the
poor woman with a handsome present, telling her
that the physician would visit the child every day.
On Tuesday afternoon her Majesty took her bath
in the sea, after which, accompanied by the Empe-
ror, she took a long walk in the neighbourhood of
Biarritz. The health of their Majesties and of the
Prince Imperial is excellent.
