the room as calm as if he had been pre-
siding at an opening of the Chambers.
When outside he took cigarette and
lighted it by the cigar Of cuirassier in
white uniform, and was preparing to
again get into his carriage when gem
eral officer came from the King TO beg
him to pass into ueighboring court
where William, who wished to have a
longer conversation, would send for himj
Napoleon said not word, but, escorted
by two cuirassiers, passed into court
where there was small wooden bench at
the edge of little piece Of water On
this he quietly took his seat, continuing
to smoke, and only stopping at intervals
to look at the pool and at the staff officer,
who, standing up, was watching all bis
movements.
After waiting quarter Of an hour the
ex-Emperor, in French, begged the otfi-
Ger to order him a glass of water. One
Of the curiassiers brought it. He mois-
tened his lips with it, and then, looking
at the contents Of the glass, smiled aud
said to the officer, Nero, when con-
quered, passed his last hour near pond,
from which he drank; am more fortu-
nate than he"
Then, having swallowed all the water
and given back the glass, "it is true, he
added, "that my reign never resembled
his So saying he resumed his smok-
ing.
After good half hour general Off
Ger came from the Prussian monarch to
beg him to enter room where the King
was alone. They remained together for
nearly an hour and half, speaking in
very low tone.
At the end of the interview the ex-Em-
peror got into post-chaise with the
Prussan arms in it and took the route
by Luxemburg to Cassel, where he will
proceed to Spandau. This last is fort
ress which protects Berlin on the north
side; it contains a State prison Of
very gloomy aspect
Those who form the suite of the King
pretend that it is the intention of his
Majesty to leave Napoleon there to the
end of his days. A perpetual imprison-
ment, the King is reported to have said,
would be only the just chastizement Of
so great an offender. An officer of the
Prussian staff, who is going to Namur
and Brussels on special mission, affirms
that without the intervention of the
Prince Royal and that of Count Bis
marck the King was determined to have
the Emperor shot, so great was his ex
asperation against him for having
caused the death of so many brave sol
diers
The equipages, carriages, and the i'm
perial servants were seized at Aron by
the Belgian authorities; the various per-
sons belonging to him were liberated on
parole, but with the recommendation to
get rid of their liveries, which they very
readily did. You can have no iJea in
Paris of the evaporation that prevails
against the Emperor and his friends
among the French who throng here from
the field of battle.

A Prussian ACCOUNT of the surren-

A letter from Dinant lBelgiuml of
September 9TH contains the following:
Listen, for what can now give you is
page of history.
Napoleon III having written to the
King of Prussia the letter which you are
acquainted with, William replied, Let
him come himself; otherwise he will be
treated like a private soldier, although
he scarcely deserves it.
Napoleon then hetook himself in the
manner related to the farm at which the
King had established his headquarters
The caieche having arrived at the door
Of the hnlse the eX-EmpOror alighted,
extinguished his cigarette and entered
alone into the low chamber, where the
King, in a generals uniform, with his
helmet on, was walking up and down in
feverish state, his hands crossed behind
his back,
The PRINCE and the great officers
formed a group in one of the corners of
the apartment. The ex-Emperor took
off his hat and saluted the King, using
the German language, William did not
reply either by word or gesture, but aiter
few more PAGES came and placed him

Napoleon, who remained bareheaded,
with his body slightly inclined.
"Sire," he said, still in German, 1

himself; have decided that Spandau

King, striking his sabre on the dusty
floor Of the room.

FROM ScIo-The Scio Nescs of the
10th instant received. Following is the
gist of its news:
A correspondent differs with the editor
in regard to the propriety of building a
macadamized road from Scio to a point
on the Railroad He thinks railroad is
what is demanded, and that ten miles of
railroad will cost the people less than the
same number of miles of macadamized
road. With railroad, all the produce
raised in the vicinity would find ready
market in Scio, building up the town and
surrounding country, whereas macada-
mized road would build up market at
the railroad point ten miles off, to the
material detriment of Scio and the coun-
try adjacent.
A party of hunters had returned,
bringing the carcasses Of twelve deer
the editor was remembered.
A new billiard saloon is soon to be
opened in Scio.

Bow-LEos.-Bowed legs are not caus-
ed by baby's being placed upon its feet
too early, but to habit children have OF
rubbing the coles of the feet together.
They seem to enjoy the contact only when
the feet are naked they don't attempt to
make it when the feet are socked. SO
tho remedy is obvious keep the baby $
feet covered. Knock knees are ascribed
to different childish habit-that OF
sleeping on the side with one knee tucked
into the hollow behind the other. When
ono leg has been bowed inward more than
the other, the patient has always slept on
one side, and the uppermost member has
been that most deformed. Here tho pre-
ventive is to be careful every night TO
place the child to sleep in different posi-,
tions. Indeed, all through lite, 1t ls wen

MARRIED IN A CoRNFIELD.-A high
ly dramatic episode, showing how the
course of true love does not run smooth,
transpired here the other day. The
daughter of rich planter, who lives a
few miles from the city had fallen des-
perately in love with young lawyer
from the same neighborhood.
The affection was mutual, but the old
man, the girls father, was bitterly oppos-
ed to the match, aud packed his girl off
to Nashville, to one of the strictest female
seminaries. Love, from the foundation
of the world, has been found fertile in re-
sources, aud, as might have been expect
ed, the young people were not long in
finding means of interchanging notes, and
afterward meeting at the house Of mu-
tual friend. They had arranged for a
sort of clandestine marriage, when the
cruel parent got wind of the matter
(cruel parents always hear of these
things), and took the girl home for a
day or two till he could take her to New
York and incarnate her in convent. Af-
ter much difficulty the lover got a note
to her, and the day before the intended
departure for the East she went into a
back room, under pretext of getting some
article to pack in her trunk, slipped
through the window, across the yard,
and into an adjacent corn6eld, where the
lover was ready with Squire and
standing amid the corn ricks in a drizzling
rain, the two were married.
That was pretty plucky on the whole,
wasn't it p Cincinmati Times.
