From the Decatur ffi.3 Magnet, Sept, II.
Last night, at abont II o'clock, a LADY by
the name Of 3Irs. elisa Rome was taken from
her bed, at 4 private boarding -house in this
city. ard carried back, manacled, by an officer,
to the place of her former residence Nash
vile, Tenn. It appears, from inforrnation
gained from hr. Mcdonald, the officer, that
about one gear ago this Mrs. Rome murdered
her husband with poison, and threw him in an
old sink uron tho premises. After she found
out that suspicion rested upon her of foul
play, shc left her place OF residence and went
to California, where she remained near San
Franeieco for several monthe.

THE DEFENCE OF PARIS,

The Prussinns having surrounded Paris
and cut off or interrupted its con,muuica-
tions With the outer world, it becomes ill.,
tercsting to inquire what are its means of
resistance. II is to be observed that the
Prsssians have not yet taken single for
tress Of Importance Pfalzburg, verdun,
31ontmedy, Toul, Bitschc, Thionville,
Longwy, Strasbourg, and Metz all hold out
stubbornly. and prove that, whatever may
lie said of French strategists, her gun,
ners md artillerists show no lack
Of capacity for the defence of
fortified cities. The defensive qualities Of
Paris grow upon the public mind US they
come to be investigated Notwithstanding
the brilliant victories of the P1ussiaus in
the open field, the only fortified places
they have yet reduced are Lutzelstein,
Mnrsal, Herney and the citadel of Laon.
These are all IN significant and the stride
from these to the attempt to reduce Paris
is an enormous one. II is not
to be supposed that the ancient walls
of the city, bordered by the boulerards,
forming now the fashionable promenades OF
Paris, are to be taken into account in csti-
mating the strength Of the city as for
tress. When the exterior line of forti6ca-
lions cannot be held, it is probable that,
notwithstanding the eloquent threats of
Victor Hugo, the city will surrender. This
e1te1iorline was erected during the reign
Of Louis Philippe, at a cost of 800, ,00O,-
GOO, and drew much ridic,Ie at the
time on n Theirs, who was
at the head of the administration.
Now it forms his most effective argument
in negotiating for peace that shall not
wholly sacrifice the honor of France. It |
consists of continued line Of Fashioned
fronts, extending, in circuit of |
twenty miles, around the entire city.
Each of the fronts, ninety |
iix in number, is about four hun
lred yards in length, and consists of an |
ordinary rampant and parapet, entirely
open overhead, with scarp wall thirty
three feet high, and lanked by heavily
AIMED bastions. Surrounding this is the !
ditch, which, when filled, opposes for
mi6able obstacle to IN assault.
Outside this continuous line, are n,,mer-
ous detached forts and redoubts, SO con-
as to oppose great resistance to
iii enemy approaching Paris, but, if cap
tnrod, capable Of being easily knocked to
pieces by the fire of the main line OF for
tiications.
Diverse opinions are formed of tue capac-
ity of these vnrks for rasisfnnca. lint IN
