THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON.
London, September "a German
correspondent of the Times writes as
follows from Wilhelmshohe, Septem-
Der 9Th: "The Imperial train reach
ed this station at 9:35 P. NJ, where the
garrison officers, General Plouski
and the resident officials of the pro-
vince had assembled. The Emperor,
on alighting, passed to Plouski's car
riage, saluting the officers of corps,
who drew up with presented arms.
He looked serious, not crushed. There
were no signs of bloat or unhealthy
embonpornt. He wore the undress uni
form of a General, with riding cap, of
rGaribaldian pattern. The crowd was
silent, respectful and sympathetic"
PARIS TO BE BESIEGED.
The Steele says it is assured from
the best source that, in answer to re-
presentations of the inhumanity of
bombording Paris, the King of Prus-
STA said he would not have recourse to
such an extremity. He would take
the place by the aid of famine. As it
is evident that at least 900, 900 troops
will be needed to entirely surround
the city, the Steele concludes that all
the Prussian reserves will be summon
ed for the siege. 1t says this is the
reason for the creation of seventy-six
squadrons of cavalry, and adds
that it is time that France also organ
lied her cavalry.

triumph of a Republic.
The Spanish people, delivered from
their kings, and ruled now by uni
versal suffrage, will soon join the great
political movement to form a United

day give France your sympathy. She
is awaiting the moment you may aid
her with arms.
This was received with shouts of en-
approval.
VICTOR HUGO'S ADDRESS TO GER
MANS.
Paris. September 9.-Victor Hugo
an address to the Germans,
the following is IN extract !:
may take fortress ; you will find
the ramparts. You may take the
ramparts you will find the barricades.
You may take the barbados, and
then who knows the recourses of pi-
triotisnl in distress :? You will find
the sewers mines of powder, ready to
blow the whole streets into the air.
This will be the terrible sentence you
must accept. TO take Paris stone by
stone, TO slaughter Europe on the
spot, to kill France In detail in each
house. That great light must be ex-
soul by soul.
"Germans, hold backI Paris is
formidable! Think a while Be-
fore her walls all t ans:ormations are
possible for her. Her Incidence gives
you the measure of her energy. She
seems to sleep, but she will awake.
Her thought will leap from its scab-
bard like a sword, and the city which
yesterday was a Sybaris, TO morrow
be a Sarrapossa."
