LONDON, Saturday Sept. 10, 1870.
The special correspondent of THE TRIBUNE at
Paris saws that permission to telegraph thence his
dispatch on Friday was refused The overtures
made to Austria to obtain an armistice from Prus-
a we're on the basis of territorial integrity. Russia
:. ;.undersood to have offered her good offices to the
French Government, and is now taking active steps.
Her assistance depends upon French acquiescence in
Russias Eastern policy. 1t is believed here that
Bismarck does not want Alsace and Lorraine; and
that the English press exaggerates the probable de-
mands of the PruSsiau Government. 1t is fully ex-
pected that the American Minister will be asked to
help the peace negotiations. c. WIS.

England is unfavorably regarded on the Continent,
and the Paris press complain bitterly of the compass

Having the Courage to say

Having the Courage to say
No.
You're starting to-day on life's journey,
Alone on the highway of life
You'll meet with thousand temptations
Each city with evil is rife.
This world is a stage of excitement;
There's danger wherever you go
But if you are tempted in weakness,
Have courage, my boy, to say no.
The syren's sweet song may allure you:
Beware of her cunning and art
Whenever you see her approaching,
Be guarded, and haste to depart
The billiard saloons are inviting,
Decked cut in their tinsel and show:
You may be invited to enter
Have courage, my boy, to say No.
The bright, ruby wine may be offered;
No matter how tempting it be;
From poison that stings like an adder,
My boy, have the courage to fEe.
The gambling halls are below you,
Their lights, how they dance to and fro
If you would be tempted to enter,
Think twice, even thrice, ere you go.
In courage alone lies your safety.
When you the long journey begin,
And trust in Heavenly Father,
Who will keep you unspotted from sin.
Temptations viii go on increasing,
As-streams from ariyulet flow;
But if you are true to your manhood,
Have courage, my boy, to say No.

Exciting Race Between 8

Cherokee OH the Iowa Falls and
Sioux City Railroad were not only
spectators bat participants in one
OF the most exciting races that
has come within the range of oul
experience.
On last Saturday morning, when
between Lemars and Cherokee,
the train in rounding curve

fourteen large, full grown els,
which were browsing on the open
prairie about fifty yards west of
the track. Startled thus sudden
Iy from their quietude they i'm
medIately started eff ON full run,
no douLt expecting TO distance the
irightlui fiery monster that had SO
suddenly broken in upon them
while they were eating their morn

their wake came the fiery loco

and the platforms and became eX-

AT frs! the elk gained on the train,
but the erg neer, Prescott, not
wishing to let muscl. distance
steam, let on a little more of the
latter, and the engine again com
menced to gain.
OCCASIONALLY the elk would sheer
toward the track with seemingin-
tention of crossing it; but "toot'
from The locomotives whistle
would deter them from their pur-
pose. The race continued for a.
bout six miles over the level prai-
ne. The tram coming TO a down
grade gained rapidly on the al
irighted elk. Becoming satisfied
that further attempts 20 distance
their never-tiring pursuer would
be useless, they sheered off mo
the open prairie, after having kept
the lead for upward of SIX miles.

A Startling Disclosure.

Soothing Syrup and Morphine-
See the Btbies-A correspondent
of the Maiicat Gazette, who is a
practicing physician, comes to the
rescue OF babies against what he
denounces their deadly enemy,
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup.
He said he was called to. see an In
fant th t was in a dying condition,
APP .arently from the effects Of a
narcotic poison, and he was as
sured that it had taken no med
icine bat the ''sooShing syrup"
The doc or took the bottle and had
some of the syrup analyzed by a
skllllul chemist, and the analysis
showed that each ounce OF the
stuff contained nearly one grain
OF morphine. A dose for an infant
three months old, as prescribed
by Mrs. Winslows printed direc-
tions, contained an amount of NOR
phioe. equal to ten drops Of landa-
nnm. This is ordered to be given
to the child every two hours, in
certain cases, and double the
quantity to a child six months
cd. As children are very suscep-
tible to the influence of opium, of
which morphine is the active
principle, four drops of laudanum
having been known to kill an in
fant of nine months, and as the
manufacturers of Mrs. Winslow's
Soothing Syrup sell annually
about one hundred thousand two.
ounce bottles in the single State
of New York, the reader can form
some idea of the number of babies
that are soothed to sleep By this
perpeinal nostrum. Mothers had
better fall back on catnip tea.

fpssor has discovered. He has

No Important military movements have been
made in this direcslo for the past day or two be-
yond the evident concentration OF the Prussans at
Orleans and the general preparations to attack
them.
FIGHT TO THE LAST.
Advices from the various departments lately In.
vadsd by the Prussians still show the existence Of
determined spirit Of resistance the part OF the
inhabitants OF all classes. The heavy requsitions
made on the people have intensified this feeling Of
hatred. At Rheims Epemay, Chalons, Menehould
and many other places CONFLICTS occur almost every
day between the citizens and the Prussians in search
Of provisions.
MOVING TOWARDS LIE CRRUzoT
despatch from Chagny, dated on Thursday. says
the Prussians in Dijsn have occupied the barracks
and have ordered eighty thousand rations for ex-
pected reinforcemenrs. General Michel had arrived
there. The Prussians seem TO avoid Chagny, and
are going towards LIE Creuzst.
GARIBALDI TO SUSPEND OPERATIONS DURING THE

I Is believed that In consequence OF the armisIice
the Army Of the Loire u, under General Garibald,
will suspend operations for the time. The Germans
in front OF that army are now marching from

THE SITUATION AT MARsEILLES.

The revolutionary excitement was abatng. General
Cluseret had assumed command of the National
Guard there Notwithstanding the strong opposition
he met. 1t was generally thought that the election
