FA1T

We publish elsewhere history Of the
Franco: :Pussian campaign, from the dee-
la1ation of war to the surrender of Sedan,
which bears clear internal evidence through
out Of having been written by Napoleon
III, though it is deemed more prcsezya-
tive Of the imperial dignity TO attribute it
TO "an officer attached 10 tho staff Of the
Major General" IA a defence. OF the
Emperor, it Is to be regretted that it traces
events only from and after the declara-
ton Of war; whereas the point on which
The Enperors coursa is most ine1plicableis Is
why he declared war at a1l Was he ignor-
ant Of the rast military superiority Of
Prussia over Ftance7 This argument
c1aims that be was fully aware Of it, and
laid all his plans Of the campaign up
cn the assumption that Prussia
would muster l.l0O, 600 men, while
France would muster only COO, 900;
that Prussia wonld array force Of Csc, 600
men effective for battle, while France
must meet them With 500, 600. This m,y be
true OF msy not. France was usually stated,
in the military handbooks and general
works Of reference on this point, to have
IN available force of i, ,sa5o, coo men, while
PrusGa Was rated at 500, ,oc0. It has been
proven that the French a1my organization
Vas 'honeyoonabed with fraud that thou-
sands Of men were being paid for out of
:he treasury who did not exist, the officers
OF the French army pockesing tho differ

was would be even greater than II he were
deceived in these 1cspects- For, to LEAD
Francs into va., knowing that the odds
we're Two to one against him, with no other
prete1t than that a German Prince had
been made y candidate; for tho spanish
throne, and to>-inzist upon war. nfter !
that Prince, at tbs earnest solicitation OF
the King Of Prussia, had Withdrawn from
tho candidacy-this ~as the burden Of M
poleon.s fatal blunder, and can only be
deemed consistent with his sanity, oven,
saying nothing OF his Judgment, on the
theory that he.beliovcd In the military su-
pesiority Of France We cannot help re-
eurding the statement therefore, rs from
the outset glaring fslsehood, IN its pre-
tenee that Napoleon knew. of tbs actual,
numerical condition of the French army,
and Was not disappointed and desperately
disnayed At its inadequaey in this idat es-
kentiL. :. + !
The ex-Emperor alleges that he designed,
With 250. 900 men, to invade Germany,
knowing that it would be defended by twice
that number Of effective fighting men, and
that the active prussiaa armies would
amount to four times that number.
In detailing the various steps by which
successive disasters wcru precpi.atcd on
the French forces, the Emperor exhibits
more refreshing candor. He informs us
with delightful nairtte that his Generals
could have rnaae better work in fighting
the P1ussians If the Ptussinns would have
let them known where they were but,
Notwithstanding the most pessevering
inquiries, it wss never really known where
the mass OF their troops was, nor, in conse-
quence, where our chief efforts should be
directed. On the 14th Of August, as also
on the 10th, no one imagined that the
whole Prussian army had to be dealt with
no one doubted at GravelIolte that Veriun
could easily be. reached On the morrow.
At Paris they nfre no better Informed

He states that he left the army al Metz,

THE TAX LEVY. 8;
The application for judgment for tbs
Slate, county, and town taSos, for 1869,
which has been in hearing before judge
Wallace, in the County Court, for several
days, has been concluded. Tho levy has
been set aside in every case where objec-
lions were made, and judgment has been
granted only against unobjecting de-
liuquents- The sale will take place imme-
diate1y, but it is of questionable validity.
We wish, however, to call attention 10 the
disclosures made, as to the manner in which
public duties are performed. During the
last session Of tho Legislature, an act was
passed by which it was made the duty OF

Tennessee Constitutional Convention

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan 10.
In Tennessee, a constitutional convention
is in session here to-day. Mr.. Baxter,
chairman of the committee on the, bill of
rights reported back a number of PROPOSE
tons and asked that the committee be dis
charged from further consideration of the bill.
The request was granted.
Geo. NJ. Gaumb, chairman Of executive
department committee, reported an amend
ment to section of the Sd article of the con-
stitution, by striking out the words land shall
state to them when assembled the purposes
for which they have been convened" and SUBJ
sttute for them the following: Sin which he
shall state to them specifically the purpose
for which they are to convene"
BY this amendment the Governor is required
to state in the proclamation concerning legis-
lation in extra session the purposes for which
it is convened, instead of stating them to the
legislature after it has met. The committee
reported adversely on all the other amend
ments referred to them. The report was
read and ordered to be printed.
