Tho Prussians Nursing Bazaine.

Bourbaki's mysterious escape from Metz,
his mysterious appearance in England and his
mysterious visit to the Empress Eugene are
far more interesting than ssthe mysteries of
Paris" 1t is supposed that the Prussian army
around Metz connived at Bourbakis escape,
and that the object of his trip to England was
TO consult with the Empress as to future move
ments, with view to holding Bazaine's army
faithful to the cause and service Of the empire.
1t is next given out in connection with Bourba-
ki's confidential expedition that between King
William and his imperial prisoner at Wilhelms-
h6he there is very good understanding
existing, and that a strong belief prevails that
with the knowledge and consent of Count Bis
marck, Napoleon and Bazaine are arranging
some programme of peace with Prussia on the
basis Of the restoration of the empire.
4Where there il 50 much smoke there must
be soma fre." In support of this conclusion
we may ask why, with the surrender Of SNas-
bourg, was not the German army of sixty thou
sand men employed in the siege of that fortified
city added, with its siege train, to the besieg-
Ing army at Metz? Surely, with that army
Of experienced besiegers, with that siege
train from Strasbourg, the smaller city Of
Metz could have been hammered into capitu-
lation In twenty-four hours and then the
besieging army Of Strasbourg and that of
Metz, say one hundred and forty thousand
men, could have been added to the besieging
army Of Paris or divided between Paris
and the column moving upon Lyons.
Instead of moving the army of Stras-
bourg to Metz, however, part of it has
been despatched southwark to Lyons, and
part westward to Paris, leaving Bazaine in
the care of part of the army of Prince
Frederick Charles, sufficient to hold Bazane,
but not sufficient for close bombardment.
Won Moltkes object, in this lenient siege of
Metz, must be either to capture the place
without spelling its Notifications or to hold
Bazaine for other purposes than capitulaton.
In short, from all the facts in the case, the
Prussians are nursing Bazaine at Metz, as a
medium for the restoration Of Napoleon or the
regency of Eugene, oirvbe basis of treaty of
peace. This is the only satisfactory explana-
ton that can be given of the lenient siege of
Metz as compared with the remorselessly
destructive bombardment and reduction of
Strasbourg. We think, too, that some further
revelations in this direction may shortly be
expected, impracticable and preposterous as
appears the scheme Of the restoration of the
Bonapartes.

On the evening Of Wednesday, from five to eight
O'Clock, was ut the Crown Princes quarters at

At half-past FIVE we saw that there was a great

ssUnanlnous for Defence Until Death''-The
People tho Revolutione
PARIS, Sept. 4, 1870.
IN the French Senate yesterday The Minister Of
War spoke as follows
We have learned through various unonicial chan
nels that Marshal Bazaine failed in his recent at
sempt to free himself from the hostile armies which
held him shut up around Metz. His efforts were
heroic. The King OF Prussia could not help render
ing Justice to the valor of our soldiers. Marshal
MacMah0n, after endeavoring to reach hand to
Marshal Bazaine IN the direction OF the north was
obliged to retire. In the environs OF Sedan there
were several days Of fighting, with alterations Of
success and reverse. But we contended against an
enemy numerically our SUPERIOR and in spite OF the
most energetic efforts the attempt seems to have
terminated in an unfortunate manner for our arms
Other advices, OF Prusslan origin, are still more
unfavorable, but do not appelr to us worthy OF
credit in all cases. and the government is not willing
to give them the appearance Of authenticity by
municating them to the pubic. Our reverses affct
us. 1t impossible for us to witness without deep
emotion 80 much courage and 30 much devotion
rendered unavailfng. But this spectacle, far from
taxing away our energy, augments and red0ubes
1t. Since the present Cabinet came into power it
has drawn from France all that her resources could
yield, and they still remain so strong that with
energy and the help OF the nation we may yet have
the last word. Let us hope that God will help US
and drive the enemy from our soil.
Jerome David added to the above by stating that
the defences OF the capital were In the best cond-
ton, and, according to competent judges, were ca
pabe Of resisting all the efforts Of the enemy 'et
NJ defend Paris, he said on the walls and In the
streets, and If it must be we will bury ourselves
under its ruins"
In the Corps Legislatif statement Of the situa-
ton, similar to that made In the senate, was given.
Jules Favre declared:-"we are unanimous for
defence until death. Great appause.) II is time
that compliances should cease IL wish to repair
our disasters."
He concluded by attacking the imperial power,
and proposing to place extraordinary power in the
hands Of General Trochu.
