BERLIN, November 3,-The French en-
voy, NJ. Adolph Theirs, who was escorted
through the Prussian lines to Paris, con
ferred with the provisional government
there and returned oVersailles on Mon
day. Immediately proceeding to King
Williams chateau. He there rendered
his credentials to the King, and an APP
pointment was made for the following
day Upon the next day M. Theirs had
an audience which lasted three hours, at
the termination of which he waited upon
Bismarck and had lengthy interview.
The government at Paris has fully en-
powered NJ. Theirs to treat for an ar
mistice upon the basis as proposed by
ngland-that is, to permit the election
of deputies to the convention of France,
which must immediately legislate upon
pacific measures. NJ. Theirs expresses
himself satisfied with the cordially of
his reception. The Prussian authorities
are striving 10 render his stay agre cable.
Last evening Bismarck returned M.
Theirs visit. NJ. Theirs has communi-
Gated with the Committee of National
Defense, at Tours, by dispatch, announc-
ing his arrival and the tenor of his me
diative offices. In the meantime during
which progresses the negotiations.
Military operations on the Prussian
side progresses actively toward opening
of the bombardment.
The several corps of the army, under
Prince Frederick Charles, which has sue
cessfully concluded an investment of
Metz, will be detailed to operate against
Thionville, and the fortified cities in
northern France Several divisions
have already taken up their march
against Thionville.
Marshals Bazaine, Lebone, Canrobert,
and Prince Murat, have arrived at Will
helmshohe. Seventy-fve other French
officers, of inferior grades, are also dom
iciled at Cassel,al evidently for the same
destination. This grand congregation
of generals is undoubtedly the result of
summons from King William, at Ma
poleon' request, ordering all the French
army corps commanders to report them
selves at Cassel. The greatest curiosity
is manifested in this city to ascertain
the significance of this assemblage, and
important developments are expected
soon.

ENGLAND.

LONDON, November 3.-The wreck of
the steamer Cambria has been found, and
the mystery attending the calamity
which befel her has been solved. Per
sons who have been cruising around the
vicinity of the spot indicated by Me-
Gortlin, the only survivor of the disaster,
have been rewarded by finding the wreck
Of the missing steamer at the bottom OF
the ocean. Yesterday vessel discov-
cred the wreck about five miles of an
island, where she had foundered, lying
upon her side and -four fathoms of water
rolling over her. The intelligence OF
the finding of the Cambria, on being cir
culated here, created intense excitement.
II is probable that submarine divers will
be dispatched to the wreck to ascertain
the fate Of the passengers-whether all
escaped in boats, only to be lost, OF
whether some remained and went down
With the wreck.

To the Martyrs Of Liver Complaint.
Among the wonderful medical properties
which have rendered Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers pre-eminent among the health-restoring
preparations of the age, its anti-bilious virtues
are not the least remarkable. No words can
dojustice to its marvellous effect upon the dis
eased liver. Perhaps the simple words OF
convalescent sufferer. who describes 1t as
" going right to the spot" tell the story as
clearly as may be. 1t does go right to the spot.
It operates directly upon the disordered organ,
and whether unduly active or in state Of
paralysis, restores 1t to a condition of health.
The sickness at the stomach, pain between the
shoulders and in the right side. yellow suffu-
sion of the skin, costiveness, drowsiness and
languor, dimness Of sight, collie palpitation OF
the heart, dry cough, low fever. and other
symptoms which indicate the various phases
of Acute and Chronic Liver Complaint. are
one and all promptly relieved, and finally re-
moved, by the action of this famous prepare
ton, which is is at once the best of correctives,
the gentlest and most genial of aperients, an
infallible regulator, and a powerful restora-
tive. Persons Of bilious habit, who use the
Bitters as a protective medicine, will never
suffer the pains and penalties of Liver disease
or Bilious Remittent Fever. cod

Mr.. Davis Visit TO Alexandria, Va.
From the Washington Republican,
Alexandria, Virginia, was yesterday
morning surprised by the announcement
that Jefferson Davis had arrived and was
stopping in the city. He arrived by the
early fcrryboat from this city, and at
once proceeded TO the Mansion House,
where he simply registered his name,
without giving any residence. The fact
of his arrival was soon noised abroad,
and shortly after he had finished his
breakfast an informal reception was held
in the parlors Of the hotel about hity
persons, in addition to the dodgers OF the
hotel, paying their respects and exchans-
ing the usual courtesles.
In short time Major General NJ, u.
Corse, late Of the Confederate States
Army, with a number of other officers,
arrived, and we're received, the crowd IN
the meantime so increasing that the par
lors were filed, and Mr.. Davis found It
necessary to make a start which he did'
the crowd following him, surrounding
his carriage and OBTAINING him fully hall
an hour on the sidewalk shaking hands.
After getting of from his admirers he
drove to the residence of Mrs. Corse,
where he spent half an hour, afterward
calling on the General in his office, where
he remained short time, and in com
pany with the General visited James M.
Mason, of Mason and Slidell fame, at
his country seat "Clareus," about three
miles from Alexandria, where he dined.

LUXEMBOURG.

LuxEMBURG, October 3.-The rumors
that the French had refused TO surrender
part Of the works and forts at Metz have
been confirmed. This conspiracy was
concerted among the officers, at the head
of whom was General Coffmeres, with
the object of preventing the final con-
summation of the capitulation of Metz
by Bazaine. The plot failed, however,
as the Prussians obtained possession of
the secrets and plans of the conspira-
tors. and took immediate measures to
guard all the barracks where the prison
ers we're confined, also stationing strong
patrols in all quarters of the city, to
avoid surprises In spite of these pre-
cautions, the inhabitants attempted to
break open the arsenal and secure the
Chassepots stored there, of which there
were an enormous number. The guards
we're called out, and they charged the
mass of people, dispensing them right
and left. All is quiet now.

Democratic Nominees.
THE CANVASS.

The spirit of the press and the move
ments of the party all over the State IN
dictate that the Democratic column Will
come up to the ballet-box next Tuesday
in solid phalanx, and carry the day by
an overwhelming majority. There is
more activity manifested in East and
Middle Tennessee than in this end OF the
State. For the first time since the en-
REIMBURSEMENT of our people, they lay
themselves liable to the charge OF apa-
thv. General Apathy has been around
for weeks and weeks, busy as Satan, tell
ing the people that alls well--the Demo-
cratic Committee can do all the work
and furnish votes enough to carry the
election. The General has mustered a
large army to circulate the alls well
that ends we'll documents, which put
men to sleep like a potent drug--and
keeps them at home on election day
General Apathy is more to be
feared than General Smith, or I'D.
Shaw, or W. II. Wisener. Let us IN
this district arouse to the Importance OF
the election about to be held, and show
IN the world that the ballot was not re-
stored to us in vain, and that its proper use
is esteemed both privilege and sacred
dutv. Much is expected of Memphis.
This is both commercial metropolis
and a political center. Shelby has long
been the banner county of the State, and
the news from this county will be awaited
with interest everywhere. We appeal to
every Democrat, to every man who ior
the sake of justice, law and order, is will
ing to help seal the doom of the Radical
marty in this State. to come forward next
Tuesday and vote the ticket which stands
at the head of the LEDGERs editorial
columns. The success of the entire
ticket will give the State peace and
o,,iet for some years to come, and
the Democratic party an opportunity
IN reduce the debt of the State, make
provisions for abolishing the excessive
taxation, and enforce many reforms
which are urgently required for the well
fare of all classes. The success of the
party will give a guarantee of what we
can do in 1872, when the most momen-
tons political struggle of the age will
doubtless take place.
The address of the State Democratic
Executive Committee, published in the

The Knoxville Press snd Herald has
n story of hidden treasure in Cooke
county Tennessee. the search for which
has unearthed the remains of gigantic
Indian. The money, il Is said, was hid.
den some fifty years ago by counter
feiters, who then infested the border
States. A man named Fairfield was
told of the buried treasure by soldier,
who had heard of il by way of his father,
and--the Press and Herald goes on--a
short time ago Mr.. Fairfield told the
tale as twas told to him to Messrs.
Underwood and Morton, who are en-
gagged in mining zinc on the bluffs along
Pigeon river, in Cooke county. These
gentlemen were much interested with
the narrative and listened attentively to
the tale Of the hidden treasures A few
days ago they concluded to search the
numerous caves in that locality for the
reputed gold and silver hidden within
their recesses.
During their hasty search they found
near the entrance OF one OF the caverns
the skeleton Of what appeared to be an
Indian chief OF giant proportions. Nearly
the entire frame was found intact, and
in well preserved condition. The bones
we're carefully gathered, and the hnders
