Germans had reoccupied 10 force the positions
previously abandoned. From Others they had oeen
driven after hard fighting, and the Prussians
hold these points and were iortifyins them. The

The Electeur says that the Prusslan siege guns
are before the city, and Paris may be
bomoarded at any moment. Rumors OF the

In Paris on the 9th, and created intense agta'
ton. Le Combat, Felix Pyatts newspaper
charged the government with knowing the facts
and Withholding them from the public. The clti-
zens, incensed at the accusation, destroyed ail
the copies OF the journal they could nnd, anu
sought to arrest the editor. The Journal ofnclei
published an indignant denial, stating that the
government did not deem it possible that Bazalne
would oetray his trust. Flourens failed to re-
ceiye his reelection as ofcer OF the battalion OF
National Guard, which he had commanded for
more than month. The journals consider this az
evidence that the Parisians are determined to

much doubt that qualified persons will b

educated mining engineers who have the ~
for the detection Of impure gases. Amy
one can detect gas when il is too late
when lamp is extinguished, or when i'm
tiammable gas becomes mixed up among
the air in dangerous proportions. In che
mine, as in the ocean and in the sod, The
air is driven by pressure into the most ne.
mote recesses; but except channels be cut
to the surface, and agency or force is used
to cause the air to move in . stream, the
air in the mine will become stagnant,
and sponge up all the impurities and filthy
gases of the mine to such an extent rs 30
produce asphyxia to all who are 20 unfortu-
nate as to inhale them. Imperfectly venti-
lated mines and other enclosed places are 10
human beings what stAgnant ponds. are 10
piscatory tribes. and they should in like
manner be avoided. When will the time
arrive when the miner. on seeking Job, "
will be 50 particular rs to ask what sort Of
air is supplied to the workman 7 This is
a condition that affects the miner to "a great
a degree as do wages and other matters,
which he considers Of the greatest impor-
lance. But the stranger miner IL not over

means for ventilation SO abundantly, and
while air is q substance so light and COM

Not only were their bodies enfeebled

many the very soul had become q desola.
tion. While some welcomed their dcliv.
erers with ecstacies Of joy, others, gloomy
and cadaverous, regarded them with a
coidness amounting to Indifference, they
having become not only reconciled to their
canibalistic diet, but preferring it to whole.
some food when set before them. Mon
strous as it may seem, to such an extent
had the natural tastes of some of these
people become perverted, that they pushed
asided the -four and bacon rendered them,
choosing rather to partake of the horrible
feast to which they had been so long &C.
customcd. Parents were seen feeding on
the remaius of their children, and children
on those Of their parents. Here a wife
was seen broiling on the Goals the flesh of
her husband, and elsewhere company
were making repast upon the roasted
limb of dead companion. A
All flial and parental affection seemed
dead, the one instinct Of selfprcservatiou
reigning supreme. Rapidly some of those
most wretched creatures were being trans
formed into ghouls and demons, having al
ready lost many of the divine traits of hu.
manity. Haggard and attenuatcd, they
spoke but little, while their looks and de-
meanor were wild and uncarthly. Too in.
credible for belief are the stories told of
the ravenous greed exhibited by some of
these starving wretches, one of whom is
said to have eaten the entire body of
child during the course of single night;
while another insisted on appropriating to
his own use the hearts and other viscera
Of his dead companions. On the other
hand, many refused to touch the flesh of
those who had perished until the last, and
then partook Of it spariugly and with evi.
dent feelings of horror.

ATTACHMENT TO NEwsPAPERs.-The
strong attachment of subscribers to we'll.
conducted newspapers, IS given in the fol.
lowing paragraph in the New York .Iosr-
nal Of Commerce, is fully confirmed BY
| veteran publishers
"Stop my paper" nre words of dread to
new beginners in the business, but they
soon lose heir force, after paper has becrf
established for term Of years. So long
as paper pursues just, honorable, and
judicious course, meeting the wants Of it's
customers in all or most respects, the ties
of friendship between the subscribers and
the paper are as hard to break by any out,
side third party as the links which bind
old friends in business or social life. Oc-
casional defects and errors, if such therS
be in newspaper, are overlooked by those
who have become attached to it by its daily
perusal for years. They may, sometimes.
become dissatisfied with it on account of
something which may have slipped into its
columns, and may stop taking it; but the
absence of the familiar sheet at their home
or Office for few days becomes an insups
portable deprivation, and they hasten to
take it again, and possibly apologize for
having stopped it. This we believe to be
common experience in the history OF IN
established newspapers. No friendship Oh
earth is more constant than that connected
by the journal which makes an honest and
earnest effort to merit its continued sup
port

PILGRIMAGE or LITTLE SOUL--1he
following, in the San Francisco P;osesf,
needs no comment. 1t is simply bsasti-
full:
We lately attended the funeral Of sweet
little girl, st Lone Mountain. She had
been rs beautiful as a conception Of, tho
angels, and even when the soffin lid closed
over her, it was upon an apparitioni Of
childish glory, which had only blancbed .
little before the Angel Of Death.
It cannot be that God had created one %
beautiful, so pure, SO good, IL be forever
lost in the dreadful vortex of AnnihiIatioo.
The gentlest flower that is cut down By
the frost, the serest leaf that is whirled in
the gales of autumn, is restored at the ncxt
coronation Of the year; and though our
little friend will be found no more among
the radiant heather blooms around her "a
ther's house, she will yet appear all beau
tifdl and cxpectant on the farther shore,
not pale and silent and ghastly, but glorit
Gus and exultant in the vigor and beauty
Of eternal life. ,. -,
We wonder which way the little Pilgrim
went? Nay, we will still believe that, &C:
cording to the theology and faith Of our
long. gone childhood, it was upward-up-
ward an eternity Of miles beyond the dim.
