The French Republic.

All eyes are steadily kept on the great struggle between the contending forces in Europe. The Prussians arc slowly but surely enfolding Paris in her anaconda coils. Every day makes the fall of that city more certain. Its overthrow and the overthrow of the Republic are only questions of very short time. France was not prepared for war, and Prussia was. The French rushed boldly to the contest, and recoiled from the iron front of King William's legions, and found themselves defeated. They fought as bravely as the bravest, but they fought against great odds. Instead of being united as against the enemy, they are now divided in sentiment. Bazaine adheres to the Empire, and is opposed to the Republic. He is in command of the only well organized French army. His weight thrown into one of the scales, sends the other end of the beam heavenwards.

King William will lake Paris, if for no other reason, to revenge himself for the French having, years ago, taken Berlin. Tt will not be necessary to storm the city in order to take it the slow process of starving is as sure to succeed. But before a Frenchman gets very hungry he will treat, and before he starves ho will surrender. lie is a game soldier on the dash a with full stomach, but he is nothing when lie has neither wine, cigars or l'rogs.

The Republic will fail, or in fact has failed. The great doctrine of perfect equality to all men before the law, broke with too luminous a halo upon the French mind, to last long. They were not prepared for so brilliant a political light. Republics are not the growth of an hour. They are the product of years of thought directed into the proper channel. The establishment of the French Republic was the accident of an unexpected event. France was precipitated into a war, almost without knowing it. The booming of cannon along lur borders, came like a clap of thunder from a clear sky. The popular mind staggering before the excitement of the moment, under a vaulting impulse, organized the Republic. The moment seems not to have been auspicious. The army led by the Emperor when he left the walls of Paris, still adheres to the Empire. With this fragment of the French Government, the Prussian King will make a treaty of peace, and the Empire will be again restored in Paris. The army of General Bazaine is the basis upon which the Empire can and will be established. No single government in Europe desires that France should be a Republic. It is against the future interests of all European Despotisms, Monarchies and Empires, that there should be a Republican form of government established ou the soil of Europe It would be the standard of revolt for the rest of the nations. England can hardly survive the presence of a Republic separated from her bv two thousand miles of water. She will light rather than one shall be established across the channel The Jungs of all the Germanic States will unite against a Republic, and though the people may favor them, they have no power. The power is in tlio hands of the enemies to free government, and they will exert it.

Looking at the great struggle around the walls of Paris from this stand point, we can not see how the present attempt at the establishment ot a Republican form of government in France, can possi bly succeed. We had hoped it would have been otherwise. But the world has not moved fast enough for this. When the glorious time does come, that the people of Europe are destined to overthrow the long established governments which have oppressed them for ages, we hope it will be aided by the smiles of Divine Providence, and bloodless but complete.

From the Indianapolis Journal.

The English Mission.

When

that the

it was definitely ascertained Democrats would have a ma

jority in the Legislature on joint ballot, Senator Morton wrote a letter to the President declining the appointment of Minister to the Court of St. James. He stated to the President that he owed his seat in the Senate to the Republicans of Indiana, and that it would be bad faith to them to resign it at a time when it would pass to men inimical to their principles and hostile to the administration. That if there was a Republican Legislature to elect his successor, he would have resigned and accepted the high trust offered to him, and not without hope of some success in the discharge of its important duties. His action in the matter, we are sure, will be appreciated by the whole country. He has declined a distinguished honor which was tendered to him under very special and significant circumstances, ana for rea-

so 1 1^

which exhibit a high degree of unselfishness and fidelity to his principles and his party.

The precarious condition of his health and tbe very difficult task that was before him, would have made the acceptance of the mission a perilous matter for him personally, for the eyes of the world would have been upon him, and had he failed the failure would have been most conspicuous and attended with loss of prestige. Yet had the result of the election been different, we make no doubt that Senator Morton would have achieved the high success his past history warranted the country in predicting for him when his appointment was first announced.

We subjoin the kind letter of thePresi-

dent to Senator Morton in response to his of the 19th, declining the Mission: EXECUTIVE MANSION,

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 21,1870. J-' "JIon. O. P. Morton, U. S.

"DEAR SIR—Your letter of the 10th inst., declining the English Mission, with reasons therefor, is received. I fully concur with you in all the reasons which you give for the course you find it your duty to pursue in the matter, but regret that the country is not to have your valuable services at the English Court at this important juncture. Your course, however, I deem wise, and it will be highly appreciated by your constituents in Indiana, and throughout the country. "With assurances of my highest regards, I remain, "Very truly, your ob'fc. servant, "U. S. GRANT."

The Terre Haute and Vandalia Railroad. Mr. N. K. Elliott, the popular and gentlemanly conductor, introduced us to Mr. Powell, engineer of No. 16, and by his courtesy we were allowed to ride across the state of Illinois on Monday, in the cab of his locomotive. Tne part of Illinois triiversed by this road is not as fertile or populous as that crossed by the Terre Haute and Alton Railroad. From Paris to St. Louis, by the latter route, there is an almost uninterrupted expanse of prairie. The country through which the Vandalia road runs is well timbered, while the soil is clayey. There are some fine stretches of prairie land near Vandalia, but the most of the country is like the southern portion of Indiana. The road-bed of the Vandalia road is a marvel of smoothness and solidity for a new railroad. The track was laid under the immediate supervision of M. J. W. Conlogue, Superintendent of the Vandalia division of the Terre Haute, Vandalia and Indianapolis railroad. The grading of the track has been done with special reference to security, perfect drainage and a solidity that will not be effected by the rains and frost. During the whole day's ride we did not observe a single place -where:»water-jcan stand upon the track. The .road ..bed on the level lands is thrown up several feet higher than the natural level, while the apex of the grade is in the center of the track, the ties between the rails being invariably covered with earth to the depth of several inches. This makes a perfect water shed, and the side track being smoothed to the bottom of the ditches secures the most perfect drainage. The number of ties used per mile is 2,000, being 500 more than is usual. The smooth road bed, numerous ties and the lish bar joint explain how it is that in going from Indianapolis to St. Louis the change from the old to the new road is hardly peiceptible. Nothing has been omitted in its construction and equipment that could add to the speed, security and comfort of travelling, and under the admirable management of Superintendent Peddle and his worthy Assistant, our townsman,

Major Simpson, the running arrangements are perfect. No one travelling this road need apprehend any danger of missing connections. By a recent arrangement passengers are furnished with refreshments at Pleasantville, Illinois, where the host, Mr. John Patridge, is always ready to welcome the hungry trav eller with a cheerful face and well sup plied table.—Ind. Journal.

THE La Socicclad of Lima, Peru, of the l(Jth ult., contains a long article on a vary extraordinary act of our Minister to that country, Geu. A. P. Ilovey. It appears that a friend of his, one "Ferrand, had got into some financial trouble in Lima, and intended giving leg bail. Ilis creditors sued out an order for his arrest. When Gen. Hovey heard of this, he at once, by way of facilitating Ferrand's departure, appointed him Cabinet messenger, and at the same time addressed a note to the Peruvian Minister of Foreign Affairs, requesting that, in view of such appointment, the order of arrest be re scinded. This request was naturally refused. Gen. Hoyey then procured from some sub-secretary a letter in which the writer advised him to repair on board the steamer with Ferrand, and suggested that either through fearol, or through respect to his person, he might obtain from the Commissioner on board what the Minister had refused him. The Commissioner was however firm, and re fused to allow Ferrand to leave the port. Gen. Hovey very foolishly got indignant attheofficer for complying with liisduty and even threatened to leave the coun try, on the ground that he had been insulted. Fortunately, however, the scandal was avoided by the arrival of Fer rand's creditor, who, although a foreigner, waved his claims in the interest of peace, and allowed his debtor to depart on his mission.

If anybody else but Mr. Fish or Bancroft Davis ruled over the State Department, it might be worth while to have the statement of La Socicdad respecting a great indignity to the friendly nation thoroughly investigated.—N. Y. Sun.

WAS

expected and hoped, the Chi

nese Government has been prompt to punish the miscreants who lately assassinated the French officials and residents at Tien-Tsin, and has also offered indemnification to France. Two Mandarins and fifteen of the most active of the mob have been beheaded—a very poor satisfaction to France, perhaps, and certainly little calculated, if Chinese human nature possesses, as we suspect, the stubbornness found in other races, to prevent mobs of the same kind in the future. An Embassy is to be dispatched to France with power to satisfy French demands and make the reparation complete. Poor France has now as much as she.can well attend to at home, so that unless England, ever eager to interfere in Eastern matters, shall prevail on her to be unreasonable, there is little danger of a war in Chiua. In the meantime, the prompt action of the Chinese Government in punishing those guilty of the outrages at Tien-Tsin will be accepted as an assurance of its wish to maintain friendly relations with the rest of the world. The facts show conclusively that the riot was the conseqnence of no intrigue on the part of the Government, which cannot be justly held responsible for the mis-

PerPe^rated. An idea has prevailed that commerce with China would materially suffer from this unfortunate

aSSr* anhouncement

of the action

of the Chinese Government ought to dispel this fear.—N. Y. Times

At Cambridge City, two men connected with one of the side shows at the Fair Grounds, enticed a little girl fourteen years old into their canvas tent, on Friday week, just before the close of the Fair, and after drugging her, violated her person.

When she recovered Irom the stupor, she made her way into town, found her father, and described the persons, one of whom was arrested.

Aul This is War.

Hermann Vogert writes to a Frankfort journal a description of a fearful scene "which he witnessed at Bazilles: "I was the iir.st person to appear after the storm of battle had passed further away. Dead and wounded lay piled indiscriminately together. Hundreds of dying eyes looked at me imploringly. I was seized with shuddering, I sought to go away. Too terrible was the scene and yet what was it compared with the barbarity which I had directly after to witness. A wild cry, more like that of an animal than of a human being, rang in my ears. I looked toward the place whence the sound came, and saw a peasant dragging a wounded Bavarian, who was lying on the ground, towards a burning house. A woman was so far aiding that she continued kicking tlie poor creature in the side with her heavy shoes. The heart-rending cry of the wretched man had drawn three of his comrades to the spot. "Shoot her down, no, hang her." Two shots rang ftflt the peasant dropped. Megsera laughed and before the soldier had gone three steps forward she stood once more beside her victim. The woman must be mad. One blow cleft her skull. "Hang her up into the fire with the brute." While the soldiers gave vent to their evidently outraged feelings, I stooped down to the ill-used soldier. He was dead. His last breath had passed with his cry for help. He was a fine, powerful young fellow. Well was it for his loved ones that they had not heard the last cry of agony of their son or their brother. I shall never forget his cry. It will haunt me while I live.

I had but just quitted this scene of

cruelty

when a new horror encountered

me. From a house close behind me came the reports in quick succession of tw$ shots. I turned and saw a krankentrager, in the exercise of his duty, fall convulsively to the ground. The wounded man he is carrying rolls with him in the dust. From that house proceeded ihe shots—five, six Bavarians force away in the door breaks under their butt-ends. But the soldiers stood as if stunned. On the' threshold appears, armed with double-barrelled gun, a tall woman she may be fifty years old, dishevelled gray hairs fall around a fine—yes, a noble face. As she regards the soldiers her features, are distorted, she laughs wildly. The laugh of this woman is a fearful thing.

gushes down her face, she exclaims softly, but in a tone of heartrending paii*: '1Noii je suis epouse, jc suismese Vous avez assassine mon mari vous avei tassassine mes deux Jils. Tuez moi aussi I Je vous en remerceirai. Si vous ne me tuez pas, el est moi qui vous tuerai.v "With the last words the old wrath returns. She again raises the gun. The soldiers have not understood her. They seek to avenge their comrade and to protect themselves. The doctor stands shuddering, like myself. Before we can say a word, the unhappy woman falls, struck by two bullets in the breast "Let her die in quiet,'calls the doctor to the men, who seem not yet to have satisfied the revenge, 'she has lost her husband and her two sons,'that makes an impression on the soldiers silently they turn away. "I turn back with the doctor. We stoop down to the poor woman. Her wounds are fatal. The woman regards us wildly. I take her huid, and involuntarily my lips utter pauvre fernme. The words seemed to have pleased her, she feels they come from the heart. Her eyes grow dim, and as she clasped my hand firmly, her bosom heaves a last sigh."
