passed behind the curtain. What confirms 1t
to my mind is that almost all the personal ad-
herents Of the Emperor who have occupied
Official positions had not private fortunes be-
fore the Empire, notOriOusly spent double
their salaries and are now the owners OF
houses, estates, and other equally solid In
vestments.
The Figaro proposes national subscription
to reward the man who murders the general
commanding the troops around Srasbourg.
What an opinion the world will have OF
France if they judge of her by her organs OF
public opinion Il cannot be too often re-
peated that the newspapers here neither LEAD
nor represent public opinion. The French are
not SO bad as their Journalists would make
them out, they are neither bullies, braggarts,
nor assassins
PROGRESS OF THE NEW GOVERNMENT.
MINISTERIAL PROCLAMATION TO THE ARMY
ADDRESS OF THE INTERNATIONAL WORKING
MEMS SOCIETY TO THE DEMOCRATS OF GER
MANY-A REQUEST FOR THE WITHDRAWAL
OF THE GERMAN NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
FROM THE NEW MAYOR AND PREFEcT OF
POLICE OF PARIS.
PARIS, Tuesday, Sept 8, 1870.
The Journal Ofciel publishes the following
proclamation this morning:
TO the Army: When General compromises
his command, he is relieved when Govern
ment puts in peril, by its own weakness, the
public safety, it is set aside. This is just
what France is doing in abOlishing the
dynasty, responsible for all our misfOrtunes.
She has done boldly in the face of all the
world, this great act of justice. She executes
the decree under which all your conscripts
have been summoned, and in the same act
secures the public safety. To save itself,
the Nation needs now but to rise en- masse,
and henceforth to count on two things only !:
It's own resolution, which is invincible, and your
herosm, which has never had an equal, and
which, in the midst of unmerited reverses, has
astonished the world. Rally round the glOri-
GUS symbol which 50 years ago drove back ali
Europe before us. To-day, as at that time,
the name of the Republic signifies the init
mate union of the army and the people for
the defense of the country.
[Signed by the Ministers.]
The International WOrkingmen's Society, in
their address to the Social Democracy of Ger
many, says: .l
Prussia made war against the Emperor,
not France, who now asks the withdrawalOf your
armies otherwise twill be the universal duty of
Frenchmen to rise and reenact the scenes of
1913. Frenchmen make no peace with the enemy
on their soil; but they are the friends and
allies of all free peoples We protest against
the Intervention of the Powers, and iTplore
the Prussian forces to recross the Rhine. Let
u.s. with grasped hands, forget crimes prompted
or perpetuated by despots. Let us form the
United States of Europe. Live the Universal
Republicw "
The Mayor has issued the following procla-
nation:
"HoTEL DE VILE, PARIS, Sept. 6.-Citisens:
l have been called by the people and Govern
ment of the National Defense to the Mayor
atty of Paris. While waiting for you to be
called to elect your municipality, | take pos
session of this City Hall in the name of the
Republic, which was the scene of the patriotic
events of 1874, $780, and 1s4S. | speak to you
now as our fathers did in 1892. Citizens: The
country is in danger; rally around this Pa
risian municipality, defended to-day from siege
by soldier of the Republic Vire la Repub-
iQue! ETIENNE ARAGo."
The Prefect of the Police has issued the fol-
lowing proclamation:
Policemen and inhabitants 0f Paris: After be-
iug for 1S years crushed under cruel blows,
the traditions interrupted on the 18th, Brum-
oire, and the I'd of December, are at last re-
sumed. The Deputies of the Left, after the
withdrawal of their colleagues, have by ma
iority proclaimed the decree of d6chfance.
Soon afterward the Republic was proclaimed
from the Hotel de Vile. The revolution which
has just taken place has been a pacific one.
II was understood that no French blood should
flow except on the field of battle. 1t has for
its object, as in 1902, the repression
of the foreign foe. It behooves, there
fore, the inhabitants of Paris, by their
self possession, and the manliness of their
attitude. TO continue to show themselves equal
TO the task that they and the nation have
undertaken. For this reason, invested by the
Government with the powers that have been
40 much abused under previous regimes, | in
yite the inhabitants of Paris to the exercise
of those political rights which they have just
recopouered, to the fullest extent possible con-
sistent with wisdom and moderation, and to
show France and the world that we are in
deed worthy of liberty. Our duty in the cir
cumstances in which we have been placed is,
above all, to remember that the country is in
danger. and that France, under the auspices
of Republican liberty, prepares to vanquish or
die. I am certain that my powers will only
be used to defend you from the blows Of
those who seek to betray the country.

courts: The Marquis de Lavelette at London,
