King Williams refusal 70 see NJ. Benedetti Is said to
contain the cause OF offence. This course OF pro.

seem very courteous but let US hope that It may be
In some manner explained away. What cannot be
questioned Is that its publication in Paris has pro-

The Emperor arrived at the Tueres yesterday at
halipast ten. and at twelve presided over Council
or Ministers, which sat until five O'Clock. The rumor
abroad was that the Marshas were also present. At
once report got into circulation that communica-
ton was to be made In the course of the afternoon
TO both Chambers. that bill to be presented to
raise the contingent Tor the year to 10000 men, and
that loan of 500 millions was to be asked for. Dur.
Ing the Council, at ABOUT haif-past four, long
clphered telegram arrived from NJ. Benedetti, which,
rumor says, Is not OF nature to change the

was come to by his Majesty and the Cabinet to
suspend all statements to the Chambers until the
next day.
In reference to the present difficulty we may state
that the diplomatsts Of the various Powers have,
during the last two days. appeared in the salons Of
the Prussan Ambassador. Baron de Werther does
not conceal from his visitors that he found his sOve

The crowd outside and inside the legislative body
was immense, and Immediately after The opening OF
the proceedings M. Emile Olivier assembled
the tribune and read statement explana-
the insulting conduct or Prussia In answer
TO the representations made. The French
government asked the Prussian monarch to give q
promise not hereafter 10 give his sanction at any
time 10 Prince leopold should this latter consent to
accept the throne OF Spain. The King refused abso

wished TO converse with his Majesty on the sub

THE PRUS SIAN POSITION.

Our cable dispatches report the PrussIans retiring
upon Mayence, and this statement would seem TO be
borne out by the special telegram announcing that
the French army had begun It's advance upon the
Russians with view to closing them In between
Wessenburg and Thionvle. Unless the Prus-
SLAMS felt confident OF being able to resist
an attack on their hank and to foil movement
on their rear retirement from the French frontier
would DC o necessity. II 49, therefore, quite proba-
BILE that they have fallen back upon Mayence; but
whether, In SO doing, they have isolated the South
German forces Is a matter which must be decided
upon the advance Of Marshal McMahon's army
across the Rhine.
