LONDON. November 2S.-It has been ascer-
tanned that there is no truth in the report that
an attempt had been made on the life of King
William, but proofs of a dangerous conspiracy
have been discovered The affair is kept
quiet, and no particulars have transpired. 1t
is reported the King and his staff have re-
moved from Versailles to Meaux.

a greater part of the French army of Loire
was engaged against the Prussian 10th corps
at Beaune on Monday, from additional par
ticulars which have just come to hand in the
reports of tho Commanders, there is no ques-
ton but that the defeat of the French was the
most complete At least, one thousand killed
were left on the field by the fleeing French
Seventeen hundred unwounded prisoners have
been captured by the Germans at last ac-
counts and the number was constantly increas-
ing as the Prussians were in pursuit.
A sortie from Paris was made in the direc-
ton of st. Cloud Monday, which was easily
repused by the Prussisns, who suffered only

Thanksgiving at the Ohio Feniten
fiaTU

LldI y.
The Ohio State Journal, describing the
Thanksgiving dinner in the Ohio penitentiary
has the following
Colonel Burr made a few remarks, stating
that in common with all the land they had
met to observe Thanksgiving Day. He
wanted this done as though all men were one
family. That is, this Thanksgiving dinner
should approach as near to the Family Thanks
giving as it was possible to have it. All in
prison had much to be thankful for There
had been freedom from sickness and there mad
been no calamity.
He stated on this occasion the rules would
be relaxed, the men could converse with each
other and could carry away from the table
such articles of food as they did not wish to
eat now.
After prayer by the Rev. Mr.. Newton, the
men commenced eating at the tap of the bell.
At first no one spoke. These silent men
did not talk at once, There was for a time
an absolute bashfulness all along the line.
Then some one whispered to Joe to pass the
sugar, and Joe whispered back, (Which is
BiIl?" and some one remarked on the bigness
of the cake, and some one else had something
to say about the coffee, and gradually the con-
versation buzz rose up to the cheerful dinner
standpoint. The men enjoying the new free
dom, the dinner, aud the rest that came after
ward, with some gentlemen, made after dinner
speeches Then with the remains Of the good
dinner in their pockets or hands, the men at
two o'clock P. II. went again to work.

Simon Krumbholtz, concluded he would stop
with Mary and make his home there, but

gathering some straw set it on fire, to draw
out Simon. But Simon didn't draw worth

out the fire. The crowd then insisted she
should send him out, but she denied his being
there and invited the crowd to search, which
they did, and found Simon ensconsed under

treated to an apparel of tar, ornamented with
white and black feathers. At this juncture
