VERSAILLES.

Taken by Stratagem-A Thousand Insur-
gents Taken Prisoaers-Short Engage--
ment-Redan Carried by Assault.
VERSAILLES, May 6.-Moulin Saguet was
taken by stratagem. A sergeant, dressed
in blouse, pretending to be q drunken
national, cut down the sentry, and before
there was time to give the alarm the rest
rushed in.
Nearly one thousand prisoners were taken
yesterday.
At neon to-day a sharp engagement took
place in the trenches in front of Forts Issy
and Vanvres. The Versailles troops carried
by assault small redan defended by the
forces of the communists, who were taken
prisoners. The work was, however, evac-
uated. The Versallists were, in cense-
quence, exposed to the fire of Fort Vanvres.
Favre hopes to gain an extension iof time
but is unlikely to succeed.
1t is probable the Prussians will bring
the empire if they.enter.
Favre and Simon are likely to resign
shortly, in consequence of dissensions in the
Assembly.

in the trial of case in which the defend
ant, as alleged, abandoned his wife in this
State, went directly to Michigan, and while
there obtained a divorce in Indiana, his
wife, Sho still remained here, having no
personal notice of the suit Subsequently,
he married a woman in Michigan, and his

For the Clarion.
Enlmittsburg Railroad.

Mr.. EDlroR:-Taking it for granted
that you are in favor of having con.
nection by rail with Emmittsburg,
would offer the following for the bene-
fit of the numerous readers of your
valuable paper. 1t has been some
years since the Emmittsburg Branch
Railroad was chartered, and meetings
held, and surveys made, and managers
elected, and large subscription OBJ
tanned for so short road, but it seemed
as though they got scared at their own
work, and finally dropped it, and the
charter being about to expire, when
the stockholders elected another Board
of Managers, and | notice by your pa
per that a location has been made by
Mr.. Gitt, and no doubt a good one, and
now l think they are on fair way Of
getting the railroad built. The citi-
zens of Emmittsburg and vicinity are
certainly blind to their own interests
if they will not push this road through.
I hope, Mr.. Editor, to see the En-
mittsburg Railroad built at no distant
day, and no doubt you desire the same.
1t is a link that is badly wanted, and
could not fail to be paying road. A
little energy on the part of the Board
of Directors and the people along the
line, will build the road.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., March 25, 1871.

1t is the duty of every press located
in a small community to advance the
material interests Of that community
as far as it knows how, compatible with
the best interest of the country. Be
lieving that we comprehend what
ought to be the duty of the citizens Of
Mechanicstown, and what will best
promote their general welfare, we urge
them if they wish to see their town
improve, to lay off their building lots,
open the streets, and advertise their
lots at fair and remunerative prices.
They should invite citizens from
abroad to locate in our midst. Popu-
lation is wealth. This town and
vicinity wants more population-ac-
tive, energetic, pushing citizens-men
like Daniel Rouzer, Jacob Weller, B.
S. and Captain VIM. P. Jones, to give
tone and stimulus to the mechanic
shops, the workshops, to build up
houses, and give tone and character to
the town. No place in the country
offers better inducements to settle
Good water, good land, healthy loca-
ton and water power and mineral in
abundance near by. Here is the iden-
teal place to open up the arteries of
an inland trade and commerce. We
have the Railroad at our doors to car
ry of our products and fabrics to do
lnestic and foreign markets. Handi-
craft industry can be employed here
to great advantage. Now is the very
nick of time to seize hold Of these
great sources of wealth, which nature
has lavishly bestowed upon us, and as
it We're placed in our hands, to be
moulded to utilitarian purposes. Let
us improve our condition-build up,
more houses-open more workshops,
delve into the earth and make fire
and air and water, the elements of
creation, minister to our wants and
comforts. a dozen men with the vim
and spirit of the late Capt. VIM. ?.
Jones, would make this town bound
ahead with Railroad celebrity and
lightning speed.

tional amount of stock could then be

mnflm.
