TRUE As GosPE1.-The great aim aud
end of reconstruction, outside of plum
der. is an attempt on the part of the
radicals to divert attention from the
North to the South. So long as tue
Northern heart can be fred by Ku Klux
outrages at the South, the day of reck-
oning will be postponed. But nausea
will come out of these times and with it
enlightenment. Then let the Summers,

The TERN "LoYAL."-In q recent de-
bate in the United States Congress. the
following point was made. 1t is well
taken:
Mr.. Eldridge declaimed against the
word "loyal" as q word he despised and
hated. It always reminded him of de-
fnition of it given by contractor dur
ing the war, when pressed to explain
what he meant by snying he felt loyal.
He said he felt ns if he wanted to steal
something or somebody. For himself,
he was patriotic, not loyul. The word
did not belong to this country; it only
belonged to Massachusetts.

whom three years ago saw at the

BERLIN. Sept. 10. The peace con
ditions, as printed in the Gazette dt
France, are gravely exaggerated
Prussia demands no 1900 900, ,000
francs as indemnity, or the surrender
cf-any portion of the iron clad feet.
BERLIN, September 8. - Political
discussions are cropping out. Il is
anticipated that at the close of the
war leading liberals will issue a pro
test and Communal address to the
King. declaring that territorial ag.
grandizement and military strength
are not the sole end best guarantees
of peace. but that morality, education
and internal liberty are the true basis
of the future Fatherland; demanding
a reduction Of taxation aud the term
of military service. and in the case of
the budget for education they had
ample support for the widows and
orphans of the war.
Disappro baton is expressed at the
consideration shown Napoleon. A
cook, chamberlain aud retinue of SER
wants have been sent from Berlin to
WIlhelmshoh to minister comforts
to the captive Emperor. He has, in
addition, sixteen officers and forty
servants. His own people regard this
force as sufficient for the wants of the
prisoner.
The Hesse Journal admonishes the
Government and people to show prac
ticable sense The silence of death
should surround the prisoner as
around the graves Of the legions
of those who have fallen during the
war. In the vast apartments once
tenanted by bis uncle jerome aud
containing many relics. he may pom
der on his fallen greatness and failure
of his insane hopes to ruin aud en-
slave Germany.

Prussian side, 526 officers, 15, 925 meu
and l S32 horses. This account does
not include the returns from several

After a brief conversation, the gen.

the Empress Eugene. The Empress
felt so strong she was suffered to see
the Prince without notice or prepara-
ton.
The scene at the meeting of the
mother aud child was indiscribable
The next day the Empress was ill

were summoned TO attend her. Il is Z

[aerald's Cable Special

aGialu's GApiC special
LONDON, September 1O.-A letter
dated Paris 9th, evening, says the
night session of the Government last
ed until o'clock iu the morning
A proposition was offered to call a
Constitutional Convention, SO as to
impart formal authority TO the Gov
ernment. The Ministers are divided
on the subject, five voting for the
question and FIVE against it. Accord
ing to French parliamentary law, a
tie vote decides the question in the
affirmative.
The members opposed to the con-
vention were Simon Gambetta, Pei
latin, Berry and Rochefort.
1t is believed that the Ministry will
control the elections in their own ia
vcr. Having the army machinery in
their hands, 1t is impossible to obtain
a fair election. Democratic social
lists meet nightly, and are endeavor-
ing to organize. They are forming
commissions In Paris and throughout
the country. Their object is to OBJ
tain power enough to carry out their
extreme views.
The effect of these meetings is al
ready manifest by the indications of a
determination of the Ministry to
place iron restrictions on liberty of
opinion. Secret police are tracking
! these meetings, and some parties who
attend them have been warned, under
a pretense of political intrigues, that
they are calculated to impair the ma
tional defense.
Lord Lyons left Paris Yesterday.
Mr.. Washburne leaves in a day or
| two.
There is every indication now that
| Paris will make terrible resistance,
1 though many still believe to the con-
trary. General Trochu declares that,
if the Prussians take the city, the cost
/ to them will be immense.
LONDON, september 10. - As the
/ fragment of the iron clad Captain thus
far found don't belong to ary vital
part of the ship, it is thought her null
may have d;ifted seaward. From
/ the accounts given of the storm. il
seems the gale kept increasing. and
on Wednesday morning the signal
was given to wear ship, and the Cap
tain's responsive signal was not seen.
The rest of the feet ran before the
wind until out of sight of the CAP.
tain. When, at z o'clock, a heavy
squall came up. which, perhaps,
proved fatal to the iron clad, throw.
ing her on her beam end or driyinQ
her bows under.
The bodies found were those Of
the men whose duty it was to wear
the ship. It is possible that the YES.
sci was driven to sea, and the bodies
of the men found were washed from
her deck. The names of the officers
and the seventeen men who are said
to have been saved, are unknown.
The proclamation issued by th,
Mayor of Paris, requests the peopl,
to prepare their houses so as to ex
tinguish fire quickly. Also that per
sons who are charged with the sani
tary care of the city may have easy
access to their dwellings.
The M0niEeur announces that th
bombardment Of Sehelestads ha
begun.
Emile Girardin announces that b
will publish new journal outside o
Paris.
