LoNDoS, Sept. 7.-[Special 10 New York
Herald.-Tbe journey of the Prince Imperial
was strictly private. Commander Dupois, his
governor, prohibits all conversation and denies
introductions, on the ground that extreme
quiet Is necessary for the health of the Prince
after the exciting events he has passed through
during the last few weeks. The Prince looks
eareworn, but is apparently in good health. At
eight O'Clock last night, after dining, he walked
for an hour on the esplsnsde with his gov
ernor. He remained some time at Hastings.
Upon bis arrival at Dover the Prince received
a letter from the Empress, in which she an
nounced her intended immediate departurefrom
Paris. She states, with much feeling, that her
first duty will be to visit her husband. When
that duty is discharged she will join her son.
e. The Duke De Gramont arrived in London
yesterday to join his wife, having escaped from
France by way of Havre. The Duke is very
communicative, and in an interview with your
correspondent, expressed himself very freely
in regard to the present situation in France.
In the course of conversation the Duke stated
that the present revolutionary government in
Paris cannot last, and predicted it's speedy fall.
"An recent tests,'' said he, "prove tnat its
members have not the confidence of the
people. The men now in power are those
whose efforts have heretofore been directed to
embarrassing the real government and assuring
the failure of the war;" The Duke declares
that republican agents were all the time at work
endeay oring to shake confidence and destroy
the discipline of the army, and attributes the
loss of several battles fought since the COM
mencement OF the war greatly to that cause.
In reply to a question as to whether be
thought foreign governments would recognize
the republic he said he did not see how they
could. Tomorrow another batch might get
up and declare themselves a provisional
government, assume power, and involve the
city in bloOdshed. Indeed, such q result he
conceived more than probable. If arms are
placed in the hands of the lowest classes in
Paris, the first new reverse in the field, or the
appearance of the Prussians before the city,
might be the signal for the overthrow of the
present self-constituted Ministry and the Gre
alton of another.
The Duke expressed the utmost confidence
in Trochu, but fears he may not be permitted
to have his own way. He believes France fully
able yet to vindicate her honor and expel the
Prussians from her territory. He declined to
express any opinion as to the future fate of the
Emperor or the dynasty.
The Duke to day had long interview with
Gladstone and Granville. There is reason to
believe, from what transpired during this in
tervew, that the announcement of Eugland's
recognition of the republic was premature.
The instructions to Lord Lyons were in eff
peculiar circumstances, but to refrain, as far as
possible, from making any formal recognition
of the government in official proceedings.
The English government, in conjunction
with other neutral Powers, is about to make
an earnest appeal to Prussia to conclude a
peace on basis Of the following propositions:
French territory to be inyiolate; France to pay
Germany the expenses of the war; the general
disarmament of France; the destruction of all
lieved these terms are acceptable to the re-
public.

LONDON, Sept. 7.-[Special to New York
W orld. England, Italy, Russia, Sweden,
Holland and Denmark have agreed to take no
separate action, but to intervene collectively,
