90 Have His Chateau Ready SUM
day Night-The French Crown
Jewels.
Herald cable.-It is said that King Will
liam has ordered Rothschild to get his
chateauInear Paris ready for reception of
the royal headquarters Sunday night.
The value OF the French Crown Jewels
in 1871 was estimated at $4,000, 900
francs, and the celebrated Regent diamond
at IL, 900, 900. The present value is triple
those amounts. 1t is rumored that the
jewels have been sent secretly from the
Bank of France via Duppe to London to
the care of the Rothschilds.
The hope that the Prussians would not
arrive for eighteen days is fallacious.
Now, with good roads and an uninter-
rupted passage, they, doubtless, will be
here by the middle of next week. The
approach, doubtless, will be made via
Vincennes and st. Denis.

The Tribune correspondent writing
from Paris Wednesday night, says the
city is tranquil, but ugly elements are at
work. The government is not rigid |
enough. Ali the imperial ambassadors
have been recalled and new ones have |
been appointed.
Preparations for defense continue, and |
the efforts made are extraordinary, and |
prizes have been offered for novel means |
of destroying the assailing forces. The |
Scientific Commission meets to-day to |
discuss some chemical means of assisting |
in the defense.
Fugitives from Sedan are continually ]
arriving weary, half-starved, ragged and |
neglected by every being. They say they |
were massacred; that McMahon's move
ment from Chalons was by the EmperOr's |
orders, who never relinquished the rear
command.
The stories of bad ammunition are con-
firmed and the returned soldiers openly |
display cartridges partly made of sand.
Similar contractors frauds are coming to |
light.
Louis Blanc declared, on leaving Brigh-
ton, he was going TO Paris to shoulder a
musket and would accept no office what
ever.
