Dispatches received up to noon of

was on Monday received from New York, in
closing sixty Continental notes of the issue of
Sept 2G, 1913, and inquiring whether any law
provides for the redemption of the same Gen.
Spinner, in reply, says the notes arc of no val

there Is no law authorizing their redepmtion

Since 1848 all the family except the last nam
ed have lived in England. All except Mont
pensier have dabbled more or less In literature,
all have }ed reputable lives, so far as the world
at large Is informed, and all are so well pro-
vided with offspring that, if fortune should re-
store them to the Tuieries, France need be
under no apprehension of the dynasty's ever
dying out.
t5s@ Intelligence from China brings the de-
tails of the massacre Of Christians at Tientsen
on the 22d. Twenty-Five European and thir-
ty or forty Chinese children were murdered.
Nine sisters of charity were also victims, their
bodies being horribly mutilated. Eight Pro-
testant churches, from which the missionaries
retreated, were gutted, and sixteen places OF
worship destroyed Several days previous to
the attack the Chinese parents removed their
children, some 250, from the Catholic schools
Among the murdered were three Russians
and the remainder we're French and Chinese
children. ....

DEMOCRATIC sympathy for Napoleon is
showing itself here and elsewhere We sup
pose the democracy has NOT yet fully cOnsid-
cred the effect of this sympathy upon their
German friends. The natural tendency of
modern democracy is TO give its support TO
that which is the iurherest removed from true
democratic princil les, and this has. lead them
without thought or deibcration, to favor the
French usurper andhis cause because he was
generously disposed towards the actors in, and
aidcrs and abctors of our rebellion. But, per-
laps n second thought may lead to little
warincss about the avowal ofthis friendly feel
ing for Napoleon. The German Democrats of
Iowa, are cutting the acquaintance of their
party friends, and linking their dcs,inecs with
the epublicans-whose sympathies go out to-
wards the Prussians and their success in the
struggle that has been forced upon them. This
| is development that it will do for the democ-
| racy to tnko into account, while our German
| friends will do theirown thinking in the prem
ises, and decide for themselves how far they
are able to fellowship with those who wish for
defeat and disaster to their father land.

There was desperate fighting on Sunday and
Monday last near Metz, but the dispatches are
not sufficiently clear to enable us to arrive at
an intelligent or satisfactory conclusion as to
who the vctors were. The French were
crossing the Moscllc, and the advance of the
Prussians came suddenly upon them. If any
considerable portion Of ,he French had passed
over, and the remainder were unexpectedly
attacked by full force, nothing but decided
victory could be the result OF such an advan-
tagc of the attacking party, Yet the more
rational conclusion Is that the result was o
draw game. Both sides claim the victory, on
Sunday, says the Tribune, but on Monday,
probably after the coming up of more force,
the Prussians are thought to have got the best
Of 1t, as seems to be their fortune in nearly
every struggle thus far.
