WAR STORIES.
Occurrences Just Previous 20 the Great
Franco-Prussian War.

occurrences Just Previous 20 the Great
Franco-Prussian War.
The Emperor Napoleon, says the
Paris Figaro, believed he was sure,
from wat was told him, that all was
ready, and as regards material this was
true. Only one thing troubled him /:
If war had to be made there was no
man capable Of directing it. In this
state Of affairs the council of Ministers
met. A decision had to be come to.
Ii was no longer possible to delay, and
every one was perplexed, not seeing
how to escape from this fatal neces-
sity. Suddenly, at an hour already
,att--5 or o'clock-the Due de Gram
mont said
"Dere is what propose Call q
congress Of the great Powers, which
will settle the dispute and enforce its
decision. Whatever it is, we shall be
''protected and war will be eyaded. If
the congress wishes the Prince Of
Hohenzollern to reign in Spain we have
nothing to fear from it. What the
Spanish people are is known; they will
not support him. His reign will be
short and we shall have no ground for
self-rcproach. Let US, then, hand over
the decision Of this great affair to a
congress. That means no longer war,
but peace"
No sooner was the proposal made than
the expression on the faces Of the Min
listers changed. All were enthusi-
astic.
1T is deliyerance," said the Empe-
ror. at is unanimously approved Of.
There is no use in making further in
ouiry until we have the Congress. NJ.
Olivier" added the Emperor, " this
resolution must be at once commune
Gated to the Chambers. They are still
sitting, and you have time to 60 to the
Chamber of Deputies. Go into the
room at the side and draw up short
declaration, which you will read to US
and then communicate to the Chamber.
], however, will tell the president to
continue the sitting"
NJ. Olivier entered the side room,
and remained there long time, and
whether through fatigue or unwilling
ness, he, who generally was such an
able writer, came back with an utterly
unsuitable declaration, which met with
approval from no one and which he
himself confessed was insufficient. In
consequence it was decided that the
matter should DO delayed to the next
day, that NJ. Olivier should prepare
At leisure what was required, and that
the document should be read next day
in the chamber. A message was sent
to the president that he might close the
sitting, and the council separated after
agreeing to meet next day at Q o'clock.
The Emperor, on leaving the Tuileries
to 90 to st. Cloud, was cheered by the
crowd collected in the square and on
the quay. The crowd called for war,
without understanding all that it meant.
On arriving at St. Cloud the Emperor
was surrounded by several persons who
had brought the news of the famous
article inserted in the German news
papers, in which it was stated that the
King of Prussia had dismissed NJ.
Benedict, telling him that he had moth
ing further to add. Count Bismarck
had calculated and published this false
statement throughout all Germany, in
order to compromise everything to force
the hand of France and to bring on war.
And he attained his object.

Heidelberg University will celebrate
the five hundredth university Of its

capable Of holding 5000 persons will
be erected for the occasion.
1T is customary" says the Scien-

purpose Of neutralizing acids that have
accidentally or otherwise destroyed the

Immediately or the color is usually i'm

an application Of chloroform will bring
out the colors as bright as ever. Plush

chloroform will answer the purpose

The municipal census-taker was
around taking names, and pulled the
bell at Bliflstick's, and Bliff came to the
door. He was put through the usual
formula, and finally the cencuser asked
the age of his wife.
Cant tell, responded the husband.
Cant tell ?" echoed the questioner.
Why? Don't you know"
"Of course do"
"Then you must tell me. The law
says you must"
THE law? What law"
The law Of the State"
What will they do with me if |
don't tell?"
"Put you in jail for contempt"
"All right; put me in jail"
Why, man," exclaimed the aston
ished official, "you won't go to Jail
and suffer rather than tell your wife's
age, will you?"
Well, yes" he said resignedly {;
"I'ye never been in Jail, and on one
occasion did tell my wife's age"

The Government does all in its power
to discourage the movement, as it is
supposed to be closely allied to Social

Of Andrew Jackson Davis will easily
understand that such reading would

anything against it. The censor is ex-

means, ready to sacrifice any sum, has
endeavored to start some organ through
which TO acquaint persons interested
therein with the results Of the expert
