The whitefish and salmon trout are becoming less plenty in Lake Ontario year by year. From close inquiries among actual fishermen, it appears that the "take" of the present season is very little more than half that of last year, and that was much less than the year preceding. The individual specimens of these fish, too, aro generally much smaller than formerly, and fish of large size, once quite common, are now comparatively scarce.
The question of right to reserved seats at concerts, which has caused a great deal of annoyance at Syracuse and elsewhere, was recently decided by one of the Washington County Court Judges, who held that all seats previously secured by ticket, wore the property of the person for whom they had been secured, and might be occupied or allowed to remain idle for that particular entertainment at his or her pleasure.

The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph, mentions that throughout tho whole cotton belt of Georgia the weather is absolutely lovely, and adds that every one in the country is busy in gathering cotton—the clear sky and aenial sun being everything the}* ask for in order to secure the crop.

At a recent meeting of the San Francisco Academy of Science, one of the members exhibited specimens of animals which had "been preserved by the use of carbolic acid. The contents of the abdomen had been removed and the cavity filled witlr cotton soaked with fluid carbolic acid, reduced with alcohol at 95. It was stated that the liquid evaporates and permeates every particle of the tissues, and even preserves the brain. The body dries, becomes very light, and decomposition is arrested. It is believed that the principal preservative substance used in embalming the mummies of Egypt was carbolic acid in the crude state.

Touns, October 21.—The occupancy of Beaugency by the Prussians is eminent. BERLIN, Oct. 21.—Advices from Versailles announce that the French are incessantly shelling the Prussian works upon Terrace of Mendout, forts D'Issy and Von Verds, and are constantly firing on Prussian working parties, impeding their operation.
The Prussian Government lias issued a proclamation warning against the enlisting in the French service of marauderous battalions of American, Irish and Italian volunteers, and threatening the most severe measures against foreigners captured with arms in their hands,

flinching attitude of her advisary now propose to punish France with death, but Prussia is mistaken in her antagonist, no sign of weakness or no cringing to an oppressor. France will not yield to the enemies ambitious to degrade her, but will fight and resist until death.
BERLIN, Oct. 21.—A dispatch from Versailles announces that General Napoleon Berrier, the Envoy dispatched by Marshal Bazaine under a flag of truce to King William's headquarters, has returned to Metz with the following stipulations
First—Five days of grace will be granted from the 19th inst., wherein to consider and accept the terms.
Second—If, at the expiration of this time, the terms are rejected, they will not be renewed, but Fort St. Eloy will be reduced at all hazards.
TOURS, Oct. 21.—The following dispatch has been received from Paris, under date of October 19 "On the 18th the Prussians, in heavy force attacked a redoubt at Hautsebruyer, and, supported by artillery, assaulted Fort Bicetre from Villejeuf. After three hours of hard fighting they were repulsed with heavy loss."
LONDON, Oct. 21.—Balfe, the celebrated composer, author of the opera of the Bohemian Girl and numerous other popular compositions, died at his country seat in Hertfordshire to-day.
Late advices received from Paris by a balloon, brings the following determined and expressive manifesto, addressed to Mayor Arago of Paris, and through him to be communicated to the resolute Parisians.
It
is necessary to resist the legiti-
mate and popular enthusiasm and to guard the interests at stake, and await particularly the day when the army carries its efforts and its offensive operations beyond the Encient. This restraint to the gallant defenders will be irksome, but it is imposed as a measure of safety. No infantry can face the Prussians, unless accompanied and supported by artillery, equal in calibre and strength to that of the Prussian artillery. Without as formidable artillery we clearly could not cope with them, therefore we are preparing artillery instructions, making cannons and arming troops with improved arms, and drilling aud acc stoming them to the rapid firing of rifles. We must avoid exposure to a disaster, which neither our bravery nor our mental superiority could avert or overcome. I will not accede to the pressing public impatience, but shall pursue to the end, the plans which I have traced out without revealing it. I ask in return the continued popular confidence which has been reposed in me.
Orders have been issued to provision Lyons with subsistence for 7,000 men for two months. The Generals commanding the military subdivisions are ordered to keep their troops in readiness to proceed to Lyons. These movements are doubtless in anticipation of active operations by the Prussians from the direction of Belfort. *11
Gen. Bourbaki has departed

Lille
and Amiens, to organize a system of defense for the ancient province of Reiardy. By a decree of the Ministry at Tours the department of Somme, wherein are located Lille, Amiens, Mont Mider and other important cities, now threatened by the Prussians, is declared in a state of siege. The North-west group of cities are being placed in condition for defense.
Advices of a recent date, trom Paris, state that on Wednesday and Thursday
the French made repeated sorties on the outer line of defences of the city. The assault was accompanied by a severe cannonading from the artillery which participated. The results are indefinitely announced to be the capture and occupation
of Stenay, eight miles southwest of Mont- I bitant.

LONDENDERRY, Oct. 20—Midnight.-An open boat was picked up to-night off Loughfriel. It contained a sailor and the corpse of a girl. The sailor was in an exhausted condition and required delicate attention to restore his strength sufficiently to answer the interrogations as to what vessel he belonged to, and how serious the wreck, if any had occurred. He then narrated tho particulars of a disastrous shipwreck, whereby he was cast afloat. He stated that he belonged to, and had formed one of the crew of the steamship Cambria, of the Anchor Line, plying between New York, Glassgow and Londerry, and that his ship left New York on the 8th of October with a full cargo of merchandise and about 150 cabin passengers, and that on Wednesday the 19th, the Cambria was lost on Instrahpul island, 55°, 27 in., -14 s., west of the extreme northern coast of Ireland, while attempting a passage in the Lougli Fernili, north of the county of Londonderry, and fifty miles away from the scene of the wreck. Four boats were launched from the Cambria filled with passengers and a portion of the crew, but they became separated, and a sailor who details the facts, says he knows nothing of what became of the passengers and crew in the three other boats. The boat contained fifteen persons, but it was capsized in a heavy sea, and every person was lost except himself and bis dead female companion. The sailor gives his name as Gartlien.
LONDONDERRY, Oct. 21—Morning.— The greatest anxiety prevails regarding the safety of the passengers supposed to be lost by the disaster to the steamship Cambria, off Lor.gliferil. The sailor Gartlan, who alone, of all on board, has reached land, states that there Avere aboard the Cambria at the time she was lost, 145 cabin passengers, a few in the steerage, and the regular complement oi officers and crew. It is feared in this city that all on board have perished with the exception of the sailor Gartlan.
Loughferil is ail armlet of the sea, stretching southward on the north coast of Ireland, county Londonderry, about 50 miles or so by the east, and about' 50 miles from the disaster. Vessels of the Anchor Line put in at Londonderry and Loughferil between New York and Glas-

THE IUC DE (JRAMMONT'S ESCAPE.
He Hears of the Fall of Sedan, and Follows iiis Banker into tlie Country to Get I uu lis—He Finds Him Burying the
Money in tlie Garden—The Moi Pursues the Wrong Man. The story of the Due do Grammout's escape from France after tlie disastrous collapse at Sedan, is so full ot romance as to make us feel doubtful whether we are really living in the matter-oi-fact Nineteenth Century. It is, at all events, worthy of being preserved, and we present our readers with the following facts, which we have good reason to believe to be perfectly correct:
The Due de Grammont, as Minister for Foreign Affairs, naturally heard of the Emperor's surrender a day before the news was published in Paris. Hesaw at once that flight was necessary, as the wrath of the mob was sure to be turned against the Ministry, who were responsible for the war. He accordingly went to his banker to provide liimselr with money and various securities, but was informed that the partner who had charge of his affairs was in tho country whither the Due pursued him. The partner was found engaged in burying his property in his garden, but returned t) Paris and delivered up to the Due de

BERLIN, Oct. 22.—A dispatch from Rheims announces that 5,000 troops of the army of the Duke of Mecklenberg Schwerin, supported by a battery of 12 heavy guns, are marching from Soissons upon St. Quentin, by way of Laon and Laferte.
NKW YOIIK.
NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—The following startling intelligence was received in this city lust night, addressed to jfarties residing here. The news bears the date of Port-au-I'rince, October 8th. The following are the facts from the letter received: Baez has either been assassinated by his own people or lias lied from the city of St. Domingo. A perfect panic prevails.
The news causes great excitement. Another report refers to the rejoicings of the Cabialists over the event in these terms: Great joy is manifested by the Cabial faction. The third extract says the most intense excitement prevails in Port uu Pruice.
Grarnraont the papers and money which were required. On the next day the bad news was published, and the Minister fled. He sent off a servant in his carriage openly, and escaped himself by a private door. The mob pursued the carriage, but of course found no one in it that they wanted, and the Due got safely to Calais. On his arrival there, however, anew cause for alarm arose. It was necessary for him to produce his passport before he could leave the country, and it was evident that in this way his identity would be discovered, and he himself, as seemed only too probable, would be arrested and sent back to Paris, never to quit it again.
The risk, however, had to be encountered, and he showed his passport to the proper ollicer, and was, much to his relief suffered to go on board the English steamer without remark. He at once went to the cabin, and the better to escape notice, pretended to be very ill. In a few minutes, however-,-he felt an ominous tap on the shoulder, and looked around expecting to find himself a prisoner. He saw only the passport officer, who said to him: "When vou were iii office you gave my son an appointment. In return for that, I have to-day let you pass, and therefore, in all probability, have saved your life." The officer wenthis way, and the Due de Grammont^got safely to Dover.
IF anybody wants to know where the national family are here are the addresses up to date: LT. S., Jr., Harvard Nellie, Hartford, Connecticut Fred., West Point Jessie, White House. No more at present from yours truly.
