LONDON Wednesday, Dec. u, 1870
Ii is officially stated that the reports that Turkey
has determined TO act upon the Eastern question in
dependcntly of the Powers, are without foundation
in truth.
With respect to the forthcoming meeting OF the
Conference Of ambassadors of the great Powers In
London ii is now known that Prussia has, in her ac-
ceptance thereof expressly stipulated that no topic
foreign the question of the revision Of the Pans
treaty of 1876 shall bs introduced into the deibcra

The ABSORPllON Ot LUAEMBChd'
FULL TEXT OF COUNT BIsMARCKs CIRCULAR
PRUsSIAs CHARGES AGAINST TIE GRAND
DUCHY.
LONDON. Wednesday Dec H. 1870.
The following is the text of Bismarck's dispatch
relative TO She Luxemburg question dated December
the 3d:
Prussia q the outbreak of the war, declared that
she would respect the neutrality of Luxemburg pro-
vided France did the same. If Luxemburg had sin
eeroly endeayCred to remain neutral, Prussia would
have scrupulousy observed o strict neutrality but
neither France nor Luxemburg have done SO. The
hostile feelings Of the population of tho Duchy aro
shown in the treatment Of all German of-
cials Prussia did not hold that Gov
ernment responsible for the bad conduct
toward her Of individuals, but she thought that
efforts should have been made to repress the repro
visionng Of Thionville through trains from Luxem-
burg. Such fragrant breach of the neutrality laws
could not, however, have taken place without the
connivance of the Government oficiSls. Prussia
lodged a complaint with the Government of Lux
emburg, pointing out the consequences to which
such q proceeding would inevitably lead, but her
warning was Unheeded.
after the fall of Metz numbers Of French soldiers
and officers passed through Luxembourg to evade the
German troops and TO rejoin the French army north
of the town Of Luxemburg, The resident French
Consul was at the Office at the railway station TO as
sist fngitives in reaching France. Two thousand
soldiers thus reinforced the French army, and the
Government OF Luxemburg did nothing to prevent
if. This undoubtedly constitutes O gross
violation of neutrality. The conditions on
which Prussia bases her neutrality there
fore ceased 10 exist, in consequence Of which
Prussia declares her part that she considers her
self no longer bound to gard the neutrality of Lux
emburC She reserves 10 herself the right to claim
compensation from the Duchy for losses sustained
by Prussia consequent the non-Observanco of her
neutrality and will take the necessary steps to Sc
cure herself against the recurrence of similar pro-
ceedings"
A sTNI- OFFICIAL EXPLANATION OF THE POSITION
OF PRUSSIA.
BERLIN. Wednesday, Dec. q, 1870.
The Hrea; Zeitung of to-day says with regard TO
the neutrality of Luxemburg. that diplomatic
negotiations were impossible in time of war. The
German armies would thereby be compromised,
while the abrogation OF the treaties secures their
safety. The PIussian Government is ready to sub
NIT its claims TO arbitration without affecting the
position of Luxemburg as an independent State.

DEATH OF ALExANDER DUMAS.


A late French telegram brings the in
tellipence of the death OF one of the
best known literary men of modern
times-Dumas, the novelist. Il
Alexander Dairy Dumas was born at
ViIiers- Cotterts, in the department of
the Aisne, July "A, 1903. His father,
who distinguished himself In the revo-
luton of 1779, was the illegitimate son
of the Marquis de La Paileterie, rich
planter Of San Domingo, by q negroes
and this faet probably gave rise TO the
anecdote told of the son, which illus
trates his brilliant powers of repartee.
An inqusitiYe visitor once asked Dumas
who was his grandmother. "a mullat-
to-" was the reply; 'and your great
grandmother ?" "A monkey, sir" thun-
derpd the novelist; "my pedigree began
where yours endsi" After his fathers
death, Dumas went to Paris in search of
employment, and when reduced to the
verge of absolute want, was, through
the kindness Of Gen. Fox, given clerk
ship In the Office Of the Secretary Of the
Duke OF Orleans. Devoting all his
leisure time to study, he soon repaired
the defects OF early education, and ac-
Quirod great taste for literature. The
performances Of aHamlat7 by an Eng
iish company, induced him to try his
skill In dramatic composition, and he
wrote "Henri III. ct - cour," which
Was received with great enthusiasm and
gave the author wide spread reputation.
Encouraged by this unexpected success,
other dramas followed in. rapid succes-
sion, and be continued to work In the
fruitful and remunerAtive field to the
end Of his latest days. One of the best
OF his efforts Is lie Tour de Nesle," re-
specting the authorship OF which quar-
rel occurred between himself and N
GaiilAriiat, terminating in duel. But
Dumas IL better known abroad as q nov
elist, and his Monte Cristo," and "TroiE
Aousquetairea,D are especially popular
among the lovers Of sensational ro-
nance. These two are but the meresi
fragments Of his labors in the depart
msnt Of fiction, and simple list of hi
novels would I'LL Q column. Many were
contributed TO the Teuillet0ns OF various
Partisan journals, and 1t Is said that hC
kept . corps OF writers always busy
dressing up his ideas giving to the stor
les himJelf only the finishing touches
and the weight OF his name. He visited
England In 1857; was with Garibaldi il
Italy IN 1850, and wrote the memoirs o.
the red-shirted hero. He was also fol
. short time conservator Of the Naples
museum. In 1852 he commenced tn,
publication Of his own memoirs, ana
several volumes have appeared, but they
contain nothing Of special interest o.
importance. Taken tagether the cats
loGue Of DumAs' writings IL said Il
reach the enormous extent Of lively,
hundred volumes. And. we may add
that his literary efforts are much NOR
remarkable for quantity than quality.
