How King William Fares on tho
Battle Field.

The Vossische Zeit,mg describes the
King of Prussia as sitting on the night
of the battle of Gravellote near gar
den wall at Rezonville, waiting to hear
the result OF the battle. He had ex-
posed himself for ten hours, with his
suite, to a hot fire from the enemy, and
up to $50 P. NJ. victory hung in sus-
pense, for the French were making des.
perate efforts to break the Prussian
lines A ladder from peasant cart
had been converted into a seat for him,
and by his side were Prince Charles
(the father, the Grand Duke of Wei
mar, the hereditary Grand Duke OF
Mecklenburg, Counts Bismarck, Room
and Donhof. Room had taken off his
helmet, and, contrary to his custom,
was wearing field cap. The King had
his helmet on. Bismarck was trying
to read French letters, though very
likely thinking of something quite diff
ferent. All were very silent, and felt
with the King tina, about this time the
decisive tidings must arrive Presently
Moltke, much heated, rode up to
the King: Your Majesty, We
have conquered The enemy is driv
en- from all his positions A Wig
orous hurrah from the bystanders was
the response Refreshments were now
thought of. A sutler standing not far
off was called up, and the party filled
their TASKS. The King drank out OF a
broken tulip-glass, while Bismarck
complaceutly minced piece of ammu
milton bread. The scene was so extra,
ordinary that Gunther has been com
missioned by one of the bystanders &c

iect of a painting. According to an
other Berlin paper some outlets anC
quarters for the night were with difh

Bismarck. after eating some boiled
eggs, which he broke with the hiIt o
his sword, went with his attendant t6
seek a lodging. Several houses a
which he made inquiries were full o
wounded. At one house where he re
ceived the same answer, he asked
whether there was not some straw ul

good fellowship toward his men, and

The AnsIo-Ameriean Ambulance
COrns

A correspondent of the London NetoS,
writing from Paris on August 9th,
says: The Anglo-American Ambu-
lance Corps left the Palais de / Industrie
this afternoon at half past four, and if
not the showiest, it was certainly the
most amply found" of any which had
preceded it. The medical men attached
to the American colony of Paris are
numerous, and their experience Of bat
tie fields renders them valuable auxilia-
ries at the present moment. The sur
geon-in-chiet, Dr. Sims is a man of
worldwide reputation, and he has
around him an efficient staff of young
surgeons anxious to take the field; but
some agency hidden to the outside
world seemed to paralyze all their
efforts until the arrival Of Dr. Frank,
the delegate Of the London Society,
who went to work with his usual en-
ergy. Selecting as surgeon-in-chief of
the English Society, DR.. MCormac, of
Belfast, who has been waiting since his
return from Metz the formation of the
American corps, he at once decided
that English alone, and Anglo-Ameri-
cans, should belong to it, and that they
should start at once. | examined the
stores with interest. and the unpacking
of the numerous packages of DR.. Frank
created amazement, even in the vast
hospital magazine Of the Champs
Elysees. Instruments of every kind,
ether, carbolic acid, lint dressings, oil
cloths, sufficient in quantity to make
derth in the market The start was
accomplished with a certain amount of
solemnity. Old Doctor Chenu assured
the by-standers that il was with tears in
his eyes he saw the representatives of
the great English and American ma
tons 90 out hand in hand to accom-
plish their mission OF mercy; while
Count Flavigny, the President Of the
French Society, thanked them warmly
in a few suitable words, adding that
France would ever be grateful for the
efficient aid thus rendered her at the !
moment Of need. Then amidst the
cheers of all, the cortegs left the Palace. !

furctions of the ministry, was again
brought before the Convention last

protest against it by Messrs. lying, Sui
Ivan. McGregory, Powers, Gardner
Thompson and others, and no word o'

Agricultural Report.

WASHINGTON, September l6-Tht
August report on the crops from the De
partment Of Agriculture says: Corn is
| injured somewhat in some localities by
drought, wet weather. heat, worms and
heavy irosts, but not sufficiently yet to
threaten a material reduction Of the
aggregate product, as heretofore an,
ticipated. The returns upon the wheat
product pertain chiefly to the condition
Of the crop when harvested, though the
figures indicate in measure the extent OF
the yield as compared with the average
at the date Of the reports. However,
the grain has not been thrashed out to
any considerable extent, so the Octot er
returns must be had before an esti-
mate Of the aggregate wheat produc-
ton of the year can be made.
The quality Of the grain threshed is
generally excellent in many cases com
pensating for the deficient quantity.
The drought in many sections has ma
terially injured the potato crop. Cali
fornia is the only State that reports an
increased average in hops. The tobacco
crop is reported below the average,
though there is much complaint OF the
apples falling during the last two
months, and of retarded growth caused
by the dry weather. A fair product is
promised. A small decline OF wool is
probable. The size and weight of her
stock hogs compares favorahlv with
thatof other wears.

ST. Louis, September l6.-The Radi
cal Convention OF the Sixth District, yes
terday, nominated Ex-Governor George

Romance Abont Empress Eugene.


A correspondent of the Lynchburg
Republican, tells this story:
In 1871 the uncle OF the writer resid-
ed as American Minister at Paris, with
large family around him. At this
time appeared in society there Eugene
Marie de Guzman Countess of Montijo
lovely person and an aristocratic name
securing her conquests in that society
and constituting her one of the most
famous ladies in Paris. ltwas thought
and indeed freel Y remarked, that her
mother was more ambitious than her
self, that the former designed for
her some great alliance, while
Eugene herself appeared model OF
simple sincerity, a girl who would
choose to consult her heart in any mat
rimonial affair Her sister had just
married the Duke Of Alba and Berwick
lineal descendant OF James III, OF
England and the worthy mother
Donna Maria, no doubt designed an
equal matrimonial destiny for the more
beautiful Of her daughters. But the
heart is not always to be controlled
even in the most aristocratic life, or 10
Weld to its exactioEs or convenience
Eugene lost hers to fine looking
blonde Virginian, young William C..
Rives, son of the American Minister.
They were engaged to be married. But
Aunt Judy Rive-, Virginia matron,
very decided and angular in her scru-
pies, interiered and broke off the
match; the Countess was too fast
for her old Virginia views OF
social sobriety. The woman for
whom future had reserved so much
escaped the comparatively humble
match that her heart had decided upon
the destiny OF quiet Virginia house
wife-to ascend the throne OF France
Alas, what other contrasts may vet re,
main for her If an event had been or.
dered differently, il prospective mo,
ther-in-law had proved complacent, the
Empress, the woman who has adorned
the throne of France and displayed to
the world the charms of another Cleo
