Prussian Reylew at LoBEchamps-TheE Empe-
ror william Cnecred by his Troops.
VERSAILLES, March 1.-The main body of
occupation formed at Longchamps and in the
Bois de Boulogne, where a review was held,
and it then entered Paris at noon. General
Kamecke commands the Army of Occupation.
The troops reviewed were portion of the Sd,
9th, and 11th Prussian Corps, and 1000 BaVa-
rians. They made splendid show.
Count Bismarck, dressed in full Cuirassiers
uniform, was on the ground.
Exactly at 1015 o'clock the Emperor drove up
to the back of the Grand Stand in low, open
carriage, attended by dragons and the great
officers of his household. Alightingon the steps
tered across the field towards the general staff,
which had followed along the line. AS the EN-
peror appeared the bands played Hell Dir, and
all the troops saluted him.
The Emperor looked exceedingly well, and
rode dashingly despite his lingering indisposi-
Hon. AS he rode down the front of the line the
flags were dropped, and the men gave three
ringing cheers.
The Emperor kept his hand on his helmet
and smiled upon his soldiers. Passing Bismarck
he waved his hand in friendly manner twice
! Having passed up and down the lines, the
| Emperor galloped across the field to point
200 yards to the right of the grand stand facing
the troops, where he took up position in front
of the Crown Prince, sitting erect on his charger
| surveying the troops for a moment with deer
| emotion. The order was given to march. The
| bands struck up, ana, with splendld step tnt
men marched past in so perfect manner thai
each battery presented profile as of only one
gun.
The Emperor leaves for Germany on Satur
dvy, instead of Monday. The ratification of the
treaty of peace is expected here tonight If i
comes, the Prussians will evacuate Paris to
morrow, but if not, the 18th Corps will probably
take its turn to enter Paris.
Prussian military commission has beel
established in Paris to receive the complaints o
| the inhabitants who have deserted the occupied
quarters of the city.
1t is reported that the Emperor will not ente
the city, The Crown Prince will therefor
review the German army.
