Death ofRObert Lee.

The South again mourns the loss of one
of her noblest sons. Passed from the cares
of earth to enter upon the glories of a bless
led future, expresses all that can be said of
so beloved a man. A christian man has
gone from US. A Hero has fought his last
battle. He lived as he died, alone in the
splendor of his fame. Words cannot ex-
press the sorrow which is felt at each fire
side when the sad news is read that Robert
E. Lee IS no more! Yet, while we mourn
is death, we cannot but feel that " our los i.

THE COMMANDMENT OF PARIS.

LONDON, Oct 8.-The Manchester Guar
dian to-day has a special which announces
that the bombardment of Paris will begin
early next week The cannonade will bel
proceeded by formal summons to surrender
the city.
A dispatch from Freiberg dated to-day
has the following: New Breissach havingi
refused to surrender, the Prussians to-day
opened a cannonade a several points with
eight guns Fires have broken out In theI
town in consequences.
SOMETHING STARTLING FROM BAzAINE
There is a report that Bazaine is deter
mined to support the Imperial cause. With
that view he has offered to surrender Metz,
and has bound himself and his army not to-
fight against Germany if allowed to march
out with all the hOnOrs of war and with al
further proposal that he should, if liberated
on these conditions, assist IN putting down
the Republic and the re-establishment of
Emperor Napoleon.
This proposition was declined by Bismarck
and ia his refusal he states he Is not satisfied
of the integrity of the officers and soldiers
and believes the army would not generally
WELD an obedience to this intrigue. his
report has gained considerable credence
since the King of Prussia permitted Gen
Bourbaki to pass the Prussian lines
The damage done at Strasbourgi Is estimated
at two hundred million dollars
THE SIEGE OF PARIS
LONDON, Oct. 8.-A correspondence from
the headquarters of the Prussian King
states that the guns for the siege of Paris
are in place, and in another week the
assault will begin on the anniversary of the
battle of Leipsic, the 10Th. The Germans
count on being in the city of Paris by the
18th They may not find the task so easy
The near approach of the horrors of bonn
bardment excite universal pity and sympaI
thy here. Eloquent advocates of meditation
in papers like the Standard are trying to
move the government to action The
horrors disclosed after the siege of Stras
bourg will forcibly aid these appeals.
But the ministry manifests no intention
of moving, and the people await the result
of the assault in dread and anxiety. la an

GERMAN UNITY.
A dispatch from Berlin dated the 7thi

in that city agitating for a change IN thej
constitution Of Northern Bund, who an.
.nounce that they are determined not to.
accept a union with foreign governments
without fully consulting aIl the details of,
that union and the future policy of Prussia.
1t Is understood that Austria will not
soppose German unity, and all dif7culties for
the contamination Of that union will pro
coed from the Southern government and the
presence Of & party Of independence and
progress.
