The Dsfences of Paris.

From The GHctMnqh Gasette.
Paris was fortified city in the middle
ages, and its walls have been several times
demolished and reconstructed amid the
vicissitudcs to'whiCh France has been eX-
posed. Her present Gortitlcations were
constructed by Louis Philippe, to which
large additions have been made under
Louis Napoleon. They consist Of q bas-
toned and terraced wall, with thirty-tour
feet Of cscarpement, faced with masonry,
presenting ninety.four angular fronts, and
Il continuous ditch twenty-five miles in
circuit, embracing both banks Of the
Seine, This system Of detenseis conf
plelcd by seventeen detached forts, each
in itself u. strong fortress. Within
the fOrtitications Is n continuous car.
riage rOad, and within that Il railroad
which connects with the five grand lines
of railway which rNdiatG from Paris TO
the boundaries Of France. The 10000
troops usually garrisoned in and around
Paris are 1uartered. in thirty barracks
within the line Of Notifications. Besides
these troops, the city liNs national guard,
numbering about 10000 men, in which all
citizens between twenty-five and fifty are
liable to be called into service. Paris is,
therefore, vast intreMchod camp, bristlcd
with outlying citadcls constructed accord
ing to tho most approved rules Of military
scfcnce, supplied with every engine OF de-
tense, and intended to DC impregnable by
any force that can be brought against 1t:
THIS is what Prussia, il she shall succeed
in reaching the envirOns, will have to en-
counter before she becomes master ot the
canitnl 81 gs

The TumuIts in Paris.
Scenes in the Corps Legislntlf
Tuesday.
Soldiers FraterniEing with the
Mob.

LONDON, August 10.
A special dispatch dated Paris, mid
night, gives the following account Of the
scenes In and near the Corps Legislatif
Yesterday. Deputy Keratry demanded
the deposition Of the Emperor, and was
called TO order by the chair. The depu:
ties then abandoned the bill, and scattered
to the committee rooms, Outside, d wild
crowd was assembled and refused 10 dis
persc. Bodies of cavalry and lancers were
stationed in the surrounding streets. The
court yard Of the Tuilleries Is throngcd
with soldicry. Around the wall oCthe Corps
Lcgislatif the police repeatedly charged
on The mob, but the latter reformed after
each charge. Bodies Of the national
guarde threw down their arms and irater-
HRizcd with the populace Other dctach'
mcpts remained passive in their barracks.
Baraguesy D. Hillyers, organized troops
and the mob was everywhere charged.
The correspondent reports that rs
he was going to post his dis
patches he heard sounds Of drums and
buglcs in every direction. Inside the
halls of the Corps Legislatif the scene
was one Of fear and bewildermcnt.
Belgian neutrality is guaranteed: A
treaty was signed here last night by Earl
Granville and BerusIorff Lavnlcttc. 1t
awaits authority from Paris to sign for
France.

the body becoming coldOr than natural,
especially il it is made colder rapidly, and
woOllcn material next the skin Is the best
thing known to prevent this rapid cooling,
especially after exercise which has caused

"Thc warmer the weather, the more

"All garments worn next the skin dur

"C6tton Is the best material 10 be worn

METZ.

Metz Is tie centre Of the triple range OF
(ortresses with which the celebrated Vau.
ban, the architect Of Louis NV, attempt-
ed to defend Franco against Germany
from tllonorth and the cast. Round these
frontiers he constructed no less than
elghty-elght fortresses, Of which Valen'
cicnncs In the north, and Metz in the east
arc the strongest. AS said before, Metz
lies in the centre Of the triple range, hay
ing US advanced post Thionville, md in the
rear Nancy. The Mosclle here Is still
very small, and scarcely practicable Tor
small steamers, that go down with the
current to ThionYille, 5ierck, Trcvcs, At
Coblentz it flows right through the city {;
one part of the river is still water. Metz
is very irregularly built, has population
ofab0ut $4,000, and something like 200
men garrison. 1t is surrounded by three
walls, forming two bitches, which are about
eighty feet deep, and being connected
with the river, may be inundated Ut I'VE
minutes notice. On each side OF the
place is situated q kind Of natural fort,
called, on tue right side Of the river, the
Fort Belle Croix, and on the left side The
Mount st. Quentin. On the top Of this
latter, commanding view Of about
twenty-five miles, Is All optical telegraph,
the signals of which may be seen from
the Cathedral Mt Metz. The eteuaGS de
ftSe, or ta&es aur l0WpS, consist in deep
bitches, filed up with bayOhets, swords,
shells, grenadcs &C., which arc covered
with the ground so carefully that the
most practiced eye is scarcely able to de-
tect them. All the buildings outside the
place are wooden framework, so that
they can be destroyed at q moments
warning. Tho Fort Belle sCroix Is conf
pletely undermined, and the mines are
connected with the Arsenal, so that they
can he blown up from the latter place.
The "PortS des Allcmands" is histori-
cally curious place, and the only remain
der of the old fortress as 1t had bcsn Gon'
structcd by tho Dukes Of Lorraine. This
Catc was assaulted, in 1915, by Charles
r., Emperor Of Germany and King Of
Spain, but the Emperor, victorious on all
other points, was defeated on this by his
eternal enemy, Francis l., Of France. II
is not to he expected that the Prussians
will carry this fortress as easily as they
seem to have carried the little but strong
place OF Bitsche, and the experience ol
the Prussian Generals will scarcely allow
them TO leave SO strong place in their
rear, so decisive battle may be looked
for in the plain surrounding Metz.

Denounced.
Dismay and DCmOrallzatlOn...The
GrOwliugS Of Revolution.
New N'oRK, August l

New York, August III.
A special cable dispatch from London
SAYS: "Lctters from Metz speak in Il most
undisguised way Of the calamitles and
the fabulous inCapaCity ot the Emperor,
Marshal Lie Bout, and Ull the military
dandies composing the military stalf Of
the army. They have lost the confidence
Of the army, and q change In command
is absolutely necessary To prevent mutIny.
All this, while there is no official news
whatever Of the whereabouts OF the
Prussian army, and, under the circum'
stances no news Is bad news"
1t Is stated there that Gen. McSlAhon
wanted, some days before the battle, to
fire the forests in bis front, through which
the Germans came down Unexpectedly
upon them, but the Emperor declined 10
authorize tho step.
Lc Freue, editor Of the S0ir, who hNs
lust arrived in Paris from FoTbach, says
lie witnessed the entire destruction Oi
Frossard's corps, and claims TO speak for
10000 French soldiers who were cut to
pieces by fault Of their leaders. and who
iamented with their latest cry that they
fell uselessly. The universal cry OF the
army, N. Favrc says, is: "Give us gen
erals that we can trust" The Sotr was
hitherto government paper, but It now
attacks the Ministry for clinging to power
and augmcnting the garrison OF Paris,
when every soldier Is wanted ut the from
tier. It further says: Every soldier
now here is an insult to lis. II you are
incapable Of saving the country, the cOun
try must save itself" O. .l.
A special correspondent writes from
Paris late on Monday evening, the 9Th :
"From what Ihear Of tho feeling among
the people aud the army; l think it more
than possible that Napoleon will never
re-enter Paris. The army Is sick OF his
amateur generalship. .
"The statement in the GualOiS OF Asecret
alliance between France and Italy and
an expected reinforcement of100,OOO ltal-
ian troops, Is certainly false, no matter
what the King may have promised his
troops, they would not march. o...

From The ". J. TbI6une.
There are few things In life more salts.
factory to their p0sseSsor than Q theory.
And when the theory happens t0 cover a
vast subject, it is astonishing to see how
many facts will be found by the pOssesSOr
Of the theory to support It. There Is o
man in Worthington, w. Va, who has a
theory Of the broad kind. In pamphlet,
printed ut his own expense, he describes,
illustrates, and explains his Theory Of
Creation" Among his observed facts 1t
is recorded that a gold watch was found
in West Virginia, It is believed, at the bot.
tom of well, in blue mud, and among
locust leaves that were purity tosSilized.
One side of :he watch Is "thickly inlaid
with letters Of Grecian style. The watch
is o: u medium size, Of modern improve
ment, having a spring in the hilt." This
Is adduccd rs tho first Of some evidences
Of mans existence prior to the present
creation" Ono more fnct about this
watch, though bad for the facts before
mentioned, is good for the theory, as it
settles the question Of antiquity. "The
lapse of time was so great that not vest
ige OF this watch remained except the
gold" Equally remarkable condolences
serve to develop the theory" which ex-
plains petroleum as condensed smoke, the
aurora as air heated by the "aues" Of polar
volcanoes, earthquakes as caused by the
combination of air, flame, and fuel, and
the American Indians as descendants Of
the lost tribes Of Israel.
