LONDON, August $50 p. MA
Paris correspondent of the Manchester
Examiner telegraphs that Italy and
Austria each send 10000 men to aid
the French.
The Empress Eugenie, according to
the Pal Nal Gazette, is preparing for
flight.
The army at Metz is still undergoing
thorough reorganization.
The London Times ascribes the French
disaster to the Emperor's obs:inacy in
refusing sound military advice and to
his illness. Parties in France will make
the Emperor pay the penalty OF his
i'll success. His name is already ignored
in acts by which the regency seeks to
rally the people. Things arrange them
selves as if he was not expected to re-
sumo his power, as if testing how he
may lie dispensed with altogether. The
only question is who shall first utter the
word "ahdication!'
