MCMAHON.
HerOism of the French General at
the Defeat Of FrOschweiler.

n
. A Paris correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune thus writes of the heroism of
Mcmahon:
AS for the latter, his struggle was he
roic. AS an experienced General, seeing
that he was overrun by an army four
times more numerous than his own, his
first desire was to postpone the battle.
His Imperial chief telegraphed him twice
to attack. Mcmahon obeyed, shuddering
but resolpte. During twenty three hours
he remained on horseback, sometimes
leading charge, needless of the mitrail-
leuse. refusing his staff permission to fol-
low him, and then charging with his Off
GERS, who fell decimated beside him.
Sometimes he moved along the front of
his battslions, under the Prussian fire,
stationed his troops himself, removed
them, or threw them on the enemy, who
drew back astomshed to see these men
fight one TO FIVE The Turcos and the
Tirailleurs d'Afrique fought like the lions
of their native mountains. One of their
battalions broke through the masses of
the enemy like a whirlwind through a
forest. When this was done, and it re-
NAMED alone, with the enemy closed up
behind it, its chief, Lieutenant and al
most the only officer left, quietly put up
his eye-glass and said so his men, "Well,
let us go back " They attempted it, but
they were all killed or captured.
Numbers won the day. McMahon's
army, $4,000 men, opposed to 10000,
was on the point of being surrounded.
The Marshal called the Colonel of the
cuirassiers. ''You must, " said he ''make
those columns draw back ''You are
sending us to death, Marshal" 81 know
it. Let us embrace, Colonel" And the
500 cuirassiers went. Six hundred fell.
'It was splendid and frightful"
said an English writer who witnessed
this charge; ''they came on without
fear of death, in front of our
column, where their colonel fell"
The chasseurs went before the
cuirassiers, and for aught l know,
many others may have sacrificed
themselves to save the relics of the army,
$4,000 men, whom their noble command
er led to Chalons without ceasing to make
front against the enemy. The evening of
this sinister engagement he simply wrote
TO Paris those words which will remain
history: 81 have fought all day. l lost
the battle. We fight while retreating."

THE POPULATION OF PARIS.

The population of Paris according to a
census taken in 1868, amounted to 2, $780,
9l6 souls, of whom 2, 020, 1876 were born
in France, that is, 733, 47S in the depart
ment of the Seine and 1926, 25S in other
departments. Of the 122, $50 remaining
persons, 3,O54 were naturalized citizens,
"a, 273 Germans, 80, 0sS Belgians, 10, 6s7
Swiss, S,1O6 English, 1908 Italians, g.
254 Hollanders, 4, 400 Americans, 1924
Poles, 1886 Spaniards, 1885 Russians,
541 Scandinsvians, 329 Moldo-W allachi-
ans; 313 Turks, 29O Greeks, and 3,766
foreigners of all other nations. This cen
sus, it will be observed, gives 81, 273 as
the number of Germans in Paris, and
hence the recent report that the Prussisns
in that city were over $4,000 must have
been greatly exaggerated. Adding the
Belgians and Hollanders, the number it is
true, is raised 10 1855, but natives of
those countries cannot be ranked among
the citizens who were so Objectionable to
the French.

THE FoRTIT1CAT1oNs OF PARIS

The Notifications of Paris were con-
structed in the reign of Louis Philippe.
They consist of Fashioned and terraced
wall, faced with masonry, and surround
ed by ditch of breadth varying from
60 to 165 feet. The general outline is of
an irregular oval form, nearly twenty
miles in circumference, and enclosing an
area of 9,271 acres, or thirty miles, aud
population of l, 800, 900 persona The
axis of the oval from north to south is
9,7OO yards, and that from east to west
is II, 3I7 yards. Around the enciente or
circuit of the wall are 81 angular forts,
with areas of about 3S8 square yards
each. There are besides 10 casemated
fortresses, located at the principal ap-
proaches, and connected with sunken
roads. Inside the walls carriage way is
laid out, and also circular railway, con-
Meeting all the railroad lines running into
Paris. At various points of the walls
there are So entrances, of which 81 are
gates, ten are railway arches, and are
posterns.

WILL PARIS HOLD OUT?
Is the French Capital Weak or
Strong!
From the London Econon

1t is certain that the Notifications of
Paris were not constructed TO meet any
such emergency as the present. They
were planned On the reasonable assump-
ton that Paris would always have large
army outside the walls to harrass the be-
siegers, and large regular army inside to
man the walls. But neither of these ex-
list. AL that is present is an enthusiastic
populace, alarmed, ill-trained, unused to
act together, and such force is difficult
to manage, and harder still to rely on.
Nor were the forts fitted for the warfare
of the present day; they were contrived
as defense against the guns and assailants
of twenty years since, and there have been
incalCulable changes since that time. And
we believe, too, that the Notifications are
not finished even according to their orig
inal pattern, imperfect as that was. Till
this month nobody in their senses ever
thought of such a calamity as the pres
ent, and no one, therefore, provided
against it. To combat these military and
these economical difficulties would require
a very strong government. But it is i'm
possible that the present government can
be strong. It is already divided against
itself. Gen. Trochu says, We are told,
that there is no republic, and I'M
less Constituent Assembly so decide,
there shall be no republic. Yet the re-
public has been proclaimed, and has been
received withacclamation at Paris, Lyons,
and all the great French cities. Such a
division between the military commander
and the civil governmc Mt must in all cases
weaken both. In this case it would pc
culiarly weaken them. A main question
for discussion and decision is, which and
how many of the populace you will arm,
and on this strong anti-republicau and
strong republican are sure TO differ critical
ly. A large part of the lowest populace
are believed to be republicans; a republi-
can would wish to arm those, and an
anti-republican would fear to do so. That
Gen. Trochu and the government can long
act together is unlikely, and to change
the command of the troops at Paris must
cause great danger, and might cause utter
ruin. How can n government like this
solve the great problems before them2
Can they hold back the many plunderers
within? Can they defeat the innumerable
Prussians without? On these grounds,
we believe that, almost certainly, Paris
cannot be defended; probably no serious
attempt will be made to defend il; that it
will be taken almost at once by the Prus-
slams; or that without an effort at de-
fence, peace must be made as soon as the
Prussians arrive under the walls; and, in
both cases, pretty much on the German
terms France, we believe, is conquered,
and she must submit to the fate which she
cannot alter.

THE LOSSES OF PRUSSIA AND


While it must be admitted that the
Prussian armies in France have achieved
a series of most brilliant and, in military
sense, creditable victories, it must also be
remembered that these victories have been
purchased at q sacrifice of human life
which, considering the briefness of the
campaign, is unparalleled in the history
of modern warfare. No complete returns
of killed and wounded have yet been pub
lished on either side, but the London CO..
respondent of the New York World fur
nishes the following:
At last have obtained what purports
10 be correct statement of the losses of
the Prussian army in killed, wounded,
missing and prisoners from the commence
ment of the campaign up to the 18th of
August My information comes from
private source in Berlin, and although /
cannot affirm that it is infallibly correct,
l have reason for believing that il is not
very far out of the way. may add that
the information was not sent for political
effect at all, but was transmitted from a
medical man in Berlin, connected with the
medical service of the army, to fellow
surgeon in London. The statement is as
follows.

Woes OF q Dipsomat-Having n
Hard Time.
The London Telegraph says: What
can you expect when we are in the shadow
of a siegeR The American Minister is
likewise having hard time of it. Mr.
Washburne has not been troubled, it is
true, to any great extent, with the care CT
plate and valuables for his fellow country
men, for the Americans in Paris seem to
have made up their minds to take things
as they come, and with philosophic
GOODNESS. l have not heard of
an American who has been arrested
as a 'Prussian spy''-a fate which,
in the city or the provinces, has befallen
about ten out of every dozen Englishmen
l have met here. Moreover, our Ameri-
can cousins, when travelling in Europe, do
not @habitually cucumber themselves with
heavy services of plate; and as for their
plentifully supplied-the gentlemen put
them into their waistcoat pockets and the
ladies pop them into their chignons when
times look ugly, and so everything is very
nice and comfortable. The trouble with
the American Legation is that the Prus-
SLAMS domieiled in Paris are under United
States protection; and whenever an un-
happy German gets mobbed by
gang of drunken rowdies, or collared by
a Jealous sergeant de vile, or denounced by
a patriotic milk-woman or public-spirited
cook-maid, for such high and mighty
crimes as wearing spectacles with tor
toise shell rims, carrying a pOcket-hand- |
kerchief in the crown of his hat, or ask |
ing his way to the Rue Neuve des Petits |
Champs, the supposed 'sPrussian spy"
naturally asks to be conducted to the |
American Legation, there to prove by the |
exhibition of his papers that he is per-
fectly inoffensive and law-abiding Teu
ton On Saturday morning, no fewer
than eighteen persons who had been ar
rested by the police, or by excited anna
teurs, were brought at one time to the
United States Minister'S, and in almost
every case it was proved that mistake
had been made, and that the prisoner was
the victim of popular passion, prejudice,
and frenzied terror-rank weeds which |
can always be warranted to flourish in
the shadow of siege.
