FORMIDABLE REPUBLICAN DEMON
STRATIONS IN LONDON.
NEW YORK, Sept. IL The following is a spe-
cial dispatch to the New York World:
"LoNpoN, Sept. 1.-THE London journals OF
to- morrow win surely belle the really formidable
popular demonstrations which took place here
to-day in favor Of the French republic and
against the monarchy at home and abroad
These demonstrations were two in number-one
in Hyde Park and one In ST. James Hall. At
the meeting in the open air in Hyde Park, Pro-
fessor Beesely made a speech vigorously de-
nouncing the imbecility Of the British govern
ment, and charging upon the Queen, by name,
that she was encouraging Prussia to march on
Paris, for the purpose of destroying the newborn
French republic, which the freemen OF Amer
lea recognize and applaud said Professor
Beesely, while the sristocracy of England sup
port a Queen who deserts her post, in aiding to
stihe and suppress it, The name of the Queen
was received with a tempest Of Kisses. When
'hese subsided, a voice in the crowd called out,
Three groans for the Prince OF Wales The
response was universal and passionate. The
aspect of the crowd at the time was really ap-
paIlirg.
In the meeting at st. James Hall, which was
crowded with persons or better class than
gathered I'm Hyde Park, strong resolutions were
adopted denouncing the inconsistency of the
Prussian advance upon PARIS with the solemn
proclamation of the Crown Prince in August
that Prussia made war not upon the French
people, but OIL the Emperor Napoleon. Pro-
fessor Beesely spoke, saying that England de-
10 a.
the English government were honest it would
say so at once, and plainly, to the King of
Prussia. The English government is hostile
both openly and secretly to France, not because
it loves Germany, but hates republicanism, and
fears it. To uphold the present course Of
Prussia is to uphold despotism in Germany, as
well as in France. The government of England
has not recognized the Republic in France, but
the day was at hand when the French Republic
would be called upon to recognize the Republic
Of England.
Mr.. Odger read at this meeting an address
from the democrats of London to the French
Republicans; which was adopted.
The feeling in this city against the govern
ment and royal family is extremely bitter, not
only among avowedly democratic classes, but
throughout the ranks Of society.
The impression made by the Times and other
papers OF the same standing, that the foreign
policy Of the government has been decided By
the personal prejudices Of the Queen and the
interests Of her family has produced the most
dangerous and general indignation.

the Franco-Prussian war, Is duty and right,
the neglect of which will involve dishonor.
THE CAPTIVE EMPEROR.
Generals Douay and Lebrun attend the En-
peror at Wilhelmshohe.
The Pruesian authorities surrounded the En-
peror's journey to Wiihelmshohe with exquisite
delicacy Of care and provision for the dignity
and feelings OF the prisoner.
Advices from Cassel say that nothing in the
magnihcent treatment Of Napoleon would de-
note that he is regarded as prisoner. He seems
rather an honored guest Of Prussia.
