tho SPECIAL correspondent OF the HERALD at
wilnslmshohe forwards an interesting letter from
the castle BY telegraph. 1t Ii dated on the 2sth
instant transmit its contents by deep sea cable.
The correspondent writes thus:- Considerable ex-
element and gossip were created here on Monday
last by the fact that Napoleon rode out In his state
carriage, with outriders. His Majesty was accom-.
panied by Prince Murat ana two gentlemen OF his
suite. It was reported that Napoleon called ON
Marshal Bazaine during his little outdoor trip, but
he did not. The fact is, the Emperor has not called
on Bazaine at all.
His Majesty enjoys excellent health. He went out
on horseback several times during the past week.
VISITORS.
The list Of visitors at the castle during the seven
days included the names Of Senator DArgentan,
Princess Moskowa and her two sons.
M. Pietri has returned to his post Of duty near
Napoleon.
MARSHAL DAzAINE AT HOME.
There has been tea party at the temporary rest.
dence Of Marshal Bazaine. Seated In small.
pleasant paror in his newly rented dwelling, sit
uated in Carthausen avenue, Bazaine was sur.
rounded by few intimate. friends. After partakng
Of cup Of tea the conversation turned on the sub.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF THE EXPEDITION.
Marshal Bazalne said that the animcsity OF Prince
Salm-salm to him had more than one reason for its
foundation. Firstly" said he, "reaily because
naa done h, him !, good service The Emperor Maxi
milan did not wish to have anything to do with the
man. he then came to me and told me that his
family had been always strong Bonapartists, espe-
ciay during che early years Of the present century
in the time Of the Rhenish alliance against the
commission On suite in the Foreign
Legion. Another reason for hls pssssna A1ptillty
to me Is connected with his wife and her treatopk
had been told that the eccentric manners OF this
lady did not augur . good education IN her early
years. consequently excluded her from my more
immediate circle Of family society. In New York some
reports relative to her went still further. In
quence OF these declined to introduce the lady at
tho house OF my mother-in.law. Hence she har-
bored most unmeasured malice towards me. am
told that she Ia at present very honorable lady.
The Emperor Macmillan offered me one million
Of money, with the title OF duke. I told his Ma
jesty In the presence OF my officers that Marshal OF
France could accept such gifts from his own sove.
reign only.
The house, which Is the property Of my wife, In
Mexico city, was estimated to be worth 100000.
Macmillan offered to purchase 1t from us for the
sum Of $1eoooo, but declined his proposal not
wishing to accept gifts from him under dsguise.
The same house has been connscated by the MexI-
can government since and given to Sehor Pepe
Rincon, the man who persuaded Lopez to turn
traitor to the Emperor Macmillan when We left
the country.
Lopez told ono Of my adjutants that he lopez
could realize $4,000 by the sale Of his estate in
Mexico. He wanted to know from the gentleman II
he could support himself In Paris with that sum for
any considerable length OF time. Receiving mega
tive reply he remained in Mexicon

rumor being current here to the erect that az
soon as Paris capitulates all the French generals
who are held prisoners by the Prussians will be
convened in wilnelmsh8he Castle, under King
william. inquired Of Marshal Bazaine yesterday
If the allegation was true
Bazaine replied, 'It is quite likely that 1t is.
It means only the reorganizing Of the French
army, the making Of peace. and the 'hushing up
Of the canatlze OF Parls.''

I learn from him that the Emperor has just said.
"ln order 10 admire the Prnssian style and kind OF

from great altitude. but after all 1t is admirable"
