English Intervention Urged.


LONDON, Sept. 12.-The Standard, and other
British journals urge English intervention in
the Franco-Prussian war as a duty and right,

peror at Wilhelmshohe. The Prussian authori-
ties surrounded the Emperor during his journey
to Wllhelmshope with every exquisite delicacy
of care and provision for the dignity and feel
ings of the prisoner
Advices from Cassel say that nothing in the
magnificent treatment of Napoleon would de-
note that he is prisoner. BE seems rather the

LONDON, Sept. 12.-Advices from Florence
are to the effect that the Italian troops enter
the Roman territory to-day, Italy's ultimatum

Italians, and the Government announces its
wish to concur with any power in guaranteeing
the independence of the Pontiff.

CASES OF ACCIDENT.-The practice of the courts has
heretofore been, when an action Tor damages was
brought against railroad company that the de-
PENDANTS might claim that they used due diligence
and care to avoid accident aud the plaintiff was re-
quired to prove there was neglect. The company
controlling the evidence to great extent it is often
next TO impossible for the compainants to make out
their case. The Pennsylvania courts now decide
that the accident itself is evidence of neglect The
company must II 1t can, prove the contrary,
