shuddering Paris; and, let him use them as con-
siderately as he will, the necessities of war
will compel widespread devastation.
How can we ever hope to revisit Paris and
find it as it used to bep The shrubs may be re-
planted indeed and the flowers laid out anew,
but neither our generation nor the next will see
the pleasant woods what we knew them. If NJ.
Haussmann's creations should be shattered, if the
luxurious mansions built by private lavishness
have been demolished, who is ever to restore
them? We are hardly likely to see a restora-
ton of the empire; but assuming that miracle,
even the empire must be economical perforce.
way to retrenchment. Taxes must inevi-
tably be crushing, and imperial fortunes
will have crumbled with the system
that reared them. Who is to fill the
grand hotels and crowd the stalls of
the new operas and theatres Things for long
will move in a vicious circle as they labor
heavily to right themselves, for full half of the
inducements that lured wealthy strangers will
be gone. Much that used to be soft and beau
tiful will be harsh and bald. There will be no
of show and sybaritism, issuing invitations to
be intrigued for or bought at the price of reck
less extravaganza. There will be probably
a brief rule of stern republicanism, to give
way to that of some constitutional prince
who shall profess himself the father of
the humber classes, not the free-handed
host of the foreigner. Who is to
inhablt NJ. Haussmann's palaces? If they
are to be tenanted by Frenchmen rents must
fall pitifully, or they must stand empty by
streets and places, or become the heritage of
meritorious labor. Happen what may in the
next few weeks, it looks as if Paris for years to
come must be the resort of those who may care
to profit by the lesson Of adversely that has been
read to others; of men who desire to temper
themselves for the struggle of life by a resi-
dence among the hardest realities. / trust de-
voutly that we shall not have to make yet
gloomier forecast of its future before it finds
breathing time from its troubles.

THE STEUBEN MONUMENT.
IFS DedIcatIon--Interes Ceremonies


The cornerstone of a monument to the
memory of Baron Steuben, the distinguished
German officer who fought valiantly in our war
for independence, was laid in May last at the
Schutzen Park. The monument has now been
completed by Mr.. Jacques Juvenal, the contrac-
tor, and unveiled this afternoon. 1t is imme-
diately in front of the mansion at the park, and
is of Italian marble, highly polished, standing
about 1919 feet high the disc being about fourfe
in height and four feet square, on which appears
the simple word "Steuben," on the American
shield, around which is a wreath of oak, and
representation of torch and sword below.
Steuben, about 219 feet high which is said to
be a capital likeness. The German societies
in this city determined some months ago to
unveil the monument to-day, and at the same
time have a two days festival; and, accord
ingly, to day and tomorrow the festival will be
held.
This morning, about ten o'clock, the process
sion to inaugurate the festivities was formed in
front of the City Hall by Chief Marshal General
Gerhardt. The procession took up the line of
march by Four-and-a-half street, Pennsylvania
avenue, and Seventh street to the park about IL
o'clock, and on the line of march quite num-
Der of bouquets were handed to those in line.
Several places along the line were decorated.

something important to communicate, to ask for ad-

the door and found Napoleon lying on the sofa in

Correspondence OF the London Times.
BEFORE METZ, Sept 25.-Itis a wonder to all
that the French don't make an attempt to re-
capture this particular point from which l am
writing, as it commands the entire surrounding
country, and one can distinctly see, even with
the naked eye, everything that goes on in Metz
and its environs. The French outposts fire at
immense ranges-S00 to 1000-and not unfre-
quenuy they have been successful in either
wounding or killing our men. They seem en-
tirely regardless of their ammunition, and take
every conceivable opportunity of discharging
their Chassepots at whatever object may attract
night an everlasting fusilade. is kept
up, as if battue of pheasants
was going on, but when you see a poor fellow
drop you soon find that no such light sport is
going on, but that it is war, with all its horrors
Captivity does not, however. present itself ap-
parently in its sternest or most depressing
aspects to the Lleckaded inmates of Metz
Children can be seen playing in the meadows ;
the bands performing lively music; the streets
are busy with moving figures in no hurried or
warlike avocations; and from some tall Chin
neys, which seemed to be those of factories
smoke could be seen to issue. You will doubt
less be aware that the Prussians have cnt off the
water supply from Metz from the side of
Gravelotte. The water of the Moselle is, it
seems, not very wholesome in this part. Ger
tainly the water is running low in the courses
around here; it 10 not very clear, and only too
rapid Deserters tell us that in Metz they are
as badly off for water as for wholesome and suf-
ficient food
So large mass of men penned up in close
quarters, with large proportion among them
of sick and wounded, ill-lodged, worse fed, and
drinking bad water, with little or none at dis
posal for sanitary purposes, can hardly be in a
position to make a very heightened resistance.
The works of Metz are of such enormous extent
and strength, its admirable natural position is
so strengthened by trenches, forts, bastions, and
earthworks its strength constantly growing py
virtue of the new earthworks that are being
thrown up by thousands of busy spades, thai
storming the place would be an act of madness.
Before the actual works of Metz itself could

tute its main trength-strong field works must
be carried, and these are protected by heavy
guns on the heights, and would not be passed
without paying heavy toll of soldiers lives
Certainly the Prussians can have but little idea
of attempting it in the face of the recent order
of the King, that all effusion of blood should be
as much as possible spared. If Metz falls-ol
rather shall / say when Metz falls Pit will fall
by famine and sickness, not from external as
sault. These gaunt enemies of besieged towns
cannot be shut out; they are now walking the
streets of Metz, and their approaches are being
felt in every house, If what we hear is true.

HYDROPHOBIA.
Death Caused by

Death Caused by an Animal Not Rabid.
The Rochester Advertiser of late date
says:-
One of the most horrible cases of hydrophobla
ever recorded occurred at Saugerties, N. Y,
this week, when Mr.. William B. Whitaker, an
izing death from the bite of a rabid dog. 1t
appears that in March last Mr. Whitaker, while
playing with a small dog belonging to Moses
KrohD, OF Saugerties, was bitten just below the
nail on the forefnger of the left haud. The
dog showed no symptoms of hydrophobia, and
nothing was thought of it at the time, the
wound soon healing, Whitaker attending as
usual to his business. .
Last Friday morning Whitaker complained of
pain in his left arm and shoulder; it kept grow
ing worse every hour, until Friday evening he
became rabid, foaming at the mouth, grinding
his teeth, swapping, snarling, growing, and
barking Ia the manner of dogs, until IL was
found necessary for the safety OF himself and
others to secure him. So furious had he become
that they were obliged to call in the assistance
of eight strong men, who with gloyed hands at
last succeeded in securely tying him to his bed
with ropes. Mr.. Whitaker, during his iluess
fully realized the nature of his disease, and in
moments when free from paroxysms would
piteously beg of his friends to put an end to his
come near him for fear he would do them harm.
After three days and two nights of the greatest
of sufferings, death came to his relief. A month
or SO after the biting of Whitaker, q little girl
daughter of Moses Krohn, was also bitten by
the same cur. The little girl as yet has shown
no signs of hydrophobia, and as nitrate of sill
yer was at once applied to the wound, no harm
make every one doubly careful in their dealings
with CANNES, as they fully demonstrate that a
dog need not necessarily be rabid for his biteto
cause death.

BISMARCK.
Mr.. Malers Reported Interview with the
PrussIan Premier.


Inc following IS the report OF the interview
between Mr.. Malet, Second Secretary of the
English Legation at Paris, and Count Bismarck,
which the Count has since branded as untrue:-
Within the last few weeks Bismarck has been
officially visited by Mr.. Malet Second Secretary of
the Legation in Paris who came on a mission from
Lord Lyons. Mr.. Malet came TO ask on what terms
the German Government would consent to make
direct communication with NJ Jules Favre. The
Count answered in a friendly tone, but very sum-
mariy and decidedly, .'We don't want money" he
said 1--WE are rich, and we don't care about large
indemnities. We do want Ships Germany not being
at present naval power or having any special
naval objects in view; but we know very well that
we shall leave behind IN France an undying
legacy of hate, and that happen what may just now
France viii at once go into training. For that rea-
son she looks forward to a day when, without En-
peror to keep her in check, and without the efete
feebleness and wastefulness which the imperial
regime has brought on her, she may wreak ven-
geance upon Germany. Accordingly what We n0w
insist upon is that we shall have Metz and SUras-
burg. We do not care to have them dismanted, but
as they are, and they we shall keep them for
stronger than ever they were. We do not want
ships, but Metz and Strasbnrg we must have. As
or kn3csDg & &ogr heads against Paris We don't DO
we will starye Paris out, cutting her
railroads, and cutting of all communication "
This is clear enough in some respects. The most
important and instructive portion OF the Counts re
marks came towards the end OF the conversation,
He assumed that Prussia would gain all her objects,
treating the acquisition OF Metz and Strasburg as
fat GccOmfh; ''but he added, "what most fear s
the effect OF a republic in France upon Germany it.
self-that is what the King and most fear. For no
one knows as well as we do what has been the in
huence OF American republicansm In Germany
Here the Count evidently alluded not only to the
theoretical tendencies or the Germans, but to the
