its existence and popularity among us. Yet we
can not but feel that they are doing wrong in
not appearing oftener in public. With their
increased prosperity and additional talent they
are doubly enabled to please an audience, as is
shown by the two concerts already given. We
hope the Society will pardon us if we urge
upon them the need the community feel for a
frst-class entertainment on Christmas week, and
we hope they will not by declining to respond
to this call disappoint their friends who are

France.

The latest European Eews shows
that the Prussians are now posted in
large numbers around Paris, and the
long promised bombardment is about
TO co nmenee. The French have met
with various successes e the Ger
mans within the last few days, and
King William isasking for reinforce
ments for his army. Tie losses on
both sides have been fearful, and it is
now becoming doubtful whether the
conquest of France will take place at
present. The French are showing
more courage than at first, and it is
telling fearfully o the enemy. The
Germans are suffering much from the
rigors of the winter.
In the meantime, a mob has as
sassinated Gen. Prim. the graf Span
ish general. The new King is now
at Madrid, and Victor Emanuel is
safery guarded in Rome. The Pope
is shut up in his quarters and the fu-
ture may show some stirring scenes.
