THE DAY AT FORT LEE. Ismight have been expected that the Prussians, following up the surrender of Napoleon, would have invaded Fort Lee and the surrounding conntry yes- terday in strong force and made sad havoc with the “lager and pretzels’? and such like commodities. Strange to say there was but one openly avowed Prussian among the crowds which sailed in the Steamboat Hulse, bound for Pleasant Valley or Fort Lee. He looked somewhat pleased on the trip up the river from Christopher ‘street to Fort Lee, but did not exhibit his patriotism on the occasion, The boat was crowded, of course, but with what mfgut be regarded 4s a strict representative, re- Bpectable, muddle class crowd. A large number of th e passengers comprised members of the Atalanta Boat Club, on thetr War 30 visit their crew, which has been practising at Pleasant Valley, THE OPPOSITION LOATS and their modes of working create a great deal of amusement and tend to enliven the trip. The ‘Hulse succeeded in reaching the up-town jing, foot of Thirty-fourth street, a few minutes betore the ‘Opposition boat, Pleasant Valley. The latter came up dnd ran in wedge-like between the stern of the juise and the end of the dock, almost snapping the hhawser of the boat. The Hulse people did not seem to mind the @ r much, but the captains of both ‘oats commenced at once shouting out for ne each one decrying the others vessel and givin oaraings that it prone sing before bape: hi wane ld be picked aud that the passengers pockets wou other CHOICE COMPLIMENTARY ALLUSIONS. {n this debate the Hulse man appeared to get the Yaugh on the “P. V.” man, as the latter finally “kept his mouth shut” in obedience to an order from tue former. On the way up theriver the party on ‘the Hulse was sociable and pleasant. Yet not one ‘word could be heard tm relation to the war. It Beemed to be as cometes forgotten as the cam- paigns of “tne uncle of his nephew.’? No one seemed to care about it or think about it, They Were out to enjoy themselves and they apparently did not believe in disturbing thelr minds with thoughts of war, At Fort Lee und Pleasant Valley the same state of things existed. Nobody spoke of the war, nobody seemed to think of it. There were a few Germans quieny sipping their lager at one of the hotels, and chatting quietly, but making no war- like demonstrations, short sojourn at almost apy ‘of the hostelries or pleasure gardens would readily explain why so few Germans visit Fort Lee. They “DER GUTE STOFFE,”’ > and they cannot get it here, the most beastly Jager that ever was Known is dispensed at some of the places in this section. On the homeward trip the soliifry Teuton above aliuded to exhibited his Gelight at the recent news, and commenced tésing “*WAS IST DER DEUTSCHEN VATERLAND?”” - eo at ones who was ere, oe pemenaers ar ihe 0% ir e Teuton by giving an answer to the UR That the Vaterland was dn very limited and undesirable quarters, “Yot ees (dot? Vos es dot? You vos pees yooseliif. Yas, \you know how dot ees py yoosellif. Go hade, go ade; oelride, oelride. I tole you dot Broosha vos ide ena goontry by de vould; und dot Von Moltke he vos so graidis ginral, doo, Who was Spr man awf dot vuld who vas graidis ginral? vos Naboleyen and dot vos Meck one. Oelride, oclride.’ “Oh! Schneider, how you vos »”’ was given him in reply, and thus the trip down was enlivened, yet ‘thot @ Word beyond thls in regard to the war one Way Or another, THE DAY IN HOBOKEN, Any person looking from New York towards Ho- boken yesterday would discern a profusion of flags that looked like a small forest. Indeed, the exuber- ‘ance of German enthusiasm could be clearly fath- ‘omed in the liberality with whicit the pursestrings ‘were loosened to give a grand effect to the display. ‘There was hardly a lager bier saloon in the city that chad not one or more fags ‘flying trom the front of the bullding. A few of the poorer class procured small flags at a price commensurate with their ‘means, and it was in the large num- ber of these that the feelings of the peo- ple could be really understood. And as to THE CROWDS that patronized the lager beer saloons, it can be ‘truly said that the treasury of the lager beer vend- ers was never before in such a plethoric condition. ‘It was not considered a profanation of the Sabbath ‘to ring out the chorus of the glories of Fatherland, nasmuch as Heaven has been so propitious to the ‘German arms, It would be the most profitable ‘thing in the world for the lager beer interest to have a German war every six months. It was noticeable that the German people and their sympathizers ‘were wonderfully cool and magnanimous in their conversations on the war. They anprove on the whole of the generous conduct of King William in dealing witu THE ROYAL CArTive, ° ‘but they regard Napoleon individually with feel- ings of contempt and even biiterness. They woulda not for a moment tolerate the assumpuion, that as the monarch of France, he is the equal of King Wil- Jiam or any other European potentate in rank, ‘They swear and carp and puff and pound the tables “with such emmpyatic expressions as ‘“‘Napoleon—he be tam. Vy vat you say he 1s? He isa tam loafer—a usurper. Vat; coispare him to King William? Not mucb.’”’ This was about the miides: opinion ex- pressed in any group of Germans. And yet, on the ‘waole FRENCH SYMPATHIZERS admit that it ts very doubtful if Napoleon, as victor, ‘would be as lement and magnanimous as the Prus- sian King. There is no bombast, or braggadocio, or allusions to provocation and revenge in the de- spatches and proclamations of the latter. Germans an hardly be blamed if they laugh to scorn the despatch ‘relating to the achievments of the Prince | ‘dmperial. Ana what wu harbinger of woe was that baptism of fire which so touched the heart of the noble father | A very hot argument was maintained on Saturday night between some Germuns and Irish- men on a Hoboken terryboat. One of the Germans pulled out a parcel, which proved to be a pair of FRENCH CALF BOOTS, and with intense bitterness spit upon them, with the remark, ‘“Frenct calf—ch? —there's how I treat your French cali—ha! ha!’ One or the Irishmen, ‘who had been extolling MacMahon as the greatest fighting man of the war, immediately tucked up his sleeves to “pitch in,” when the bystanders inter- fered and put an end to the dispute. It is worthy of note that while the «sympathizers with France are counted by thousands, \uere are few sympathizers with Napoleon. That the cause of THE NAPOLEON DYNASTY is not the cause of France is a view of the case adopted by the majority of the advocates of the ench nation. The irreparable blunder made by fapolcon = after the declaration of war in hesitating, so as to give the enemy full time to anticipate his movements, has won for the now fallen monarch abuse, contempt, and even execration from many of his former ad- mirers and adherents. Hovoken, with all its Ger- man predilections, Is at the same time prepared to offet a secure asylum to Napoleon if King William only grants permission, as will be seen by the proffer of he Harting in yesterday’s HERALD. But he could hardly ever get elected mayor of the city, for the German element “rules the roast” and Nap would ex very few votes from that party. One excitable Frdiviaual sald yesterday that-he would vote for Napoleon as doorkeeper at the police station, THE GREAT ORACLE, Hermann D, Busch, the fattest of all the fatmen in ‘the tribo of Fisk, was the most liberal of his race in ‘Hoboken in subscribing for the wounded at the out- ‘break of the war, and, at tho same time, most san- guine in his predictions of speedy triumph. He re- »celved Warm congratulations yesterday, which he acknowledged in this laconic form:—“I feel very |.” He forgot altogether, in the excitement, that his hotel has been the rendezvous for the past few days of THE YOUNG DEMOCRACY, \-who are to hold a convention next Friday for the , purpose of redeeming the Fifth Congressional dis- ‘Arict of New Jersey from the disgrace heaped upon at by the rowdy element at tne so-called convention last ‘Thursday in Odd Fellows’ Hall. “War to the knife with Napoieon’” was the cry at Busch’s Hotel a few weeks ago, and now goes forth the cry “War to the rowen dormocracy of Hudson county,” and tne «time and place are ominous. Verily, Busch’s palace Ys the seat of the mighty ones.

The following correspondence on the important subjects of the causes and probable consequences of the great war between France and Prussia has been forwarded to the HERALD for publication:— THK EUROPKAN CONFLICT—ITS EXC:TING CAUSES. Since the battle of Sadowa, in 1866, and the conse- quent transferrence of German supremacy from Vienna to Berlin, statesmen and politictsns consid- ered that the situation thus arranged was only tem- ‘The “balance of power in Europe, it is true, has not been in danger for the last hundred years except on the side of France, and latterly of Prussia. ‘The “balance of power’ means that ail the Euro- pean States, great apd small, are to take care that none of them becomes so powertul as, like Moses’ serpent, to be able vo swallow up all tue rest.

Stitl 1 was fear of the growing power or Russia that led Louts Napoleon to acquiesce tn the victories Of Prussia of 1866, and to behold with complacency, if not satisfaction, the rise Of the great North German CONFEDERATION. Louis Napoleon is a dreamer after the model set by the tincle. From the latter he has inherited much material and much intellectual wealth. Napoicon the First Was @ man of more solid abilities than even Julius Casar, and, unlike Charles the Second, never, or at least very rarely, said or did an unwise thing, Napoleon the First, then, was mightily afraid of Russia, and aways told his companions at St. Helena that Burope in fifty years alterwards would be either republican or Cossac Napoleon the Third, in the Russfan war of 1864 avd in acquiescing in the recent aggrandizement of Prussia, was acting upon the tradiions left by the uncie, But, as the moon on account of her proximity to us acts more foretbiy than the suo upon the waters of the ocean and the seething brain of the lunatic, 80 Prussia has been (yuud a more troublesome tora 1a (he wide of ‘RIPLE SHEET.

If Prussia nad an ally in in or Italy she might greatly annoy France, "The Honenzoliern candita- ture, indeed, was the merest and holiowest pretext for war. Napoleon would have gone to war even if Hohenzollern was never mentioned. Let us con- sider the character, then, of this Napoieon the Third, from the beginning, and see whether he has been undergoing development or obscuration. A WILD YOUNG MAN WITH A TAMB BAGLE. In the year 1840 he made a descent upon Boulogne, and after performing tn vain with the le before @n unappreciative audience he was lock 4 by the porine and ordered to be imprisoned for life im the ortress of Ham. His friend, Dr. Conneau, there got @ figure of wood carved, with a Napoiconic nose, and left it in the bed of Loule, while he escaped from the fortress. ve resiaed In England afterwards, and a while io America, until he obtained the French Presidency in 1848 and the empire by the coup d'état of the 2d December, Taoz—the anniversary of tho coronation of Napoleon the First. | ‘Througuout all these pro- ceedings Napoleon the Third claimed tv be a repub- licau. He still professes to represent the principles of the revolution of 1789, and it would pean seam that he has always cherished bopes of an extended empire and wo see all Europe, not Kk, but REPUBLICAN AND BONAPARTIST, Gnd this at the same time, “Owsar” thas would uot be an emperor so much as the perpetual diciator of @ republic. This was the dream of Napoleon the First, He rose like an idea, armed from the heated int of the revolution, ideas—he died by ideas. All Europe, Frauce in- cluded, laughed at him when he escaped from Kiba and tried to cope single handed against all Europe. But he had his idea, and it was not wholly worth- less. Napoleon the Third has his ideas, and they have been likewise go vast that it has taken twenty- two years pcssession of tho supreme power in France to hatch thom.

Ou the first turn of the tide for the French out came ‘‘Napoleonism Unveilea” again. NAPOLEON HIMSELF 18 A FATALIST. This fact can be demonstrated by a very few Words, in his address to the French nation, upon his Proclamation of war against Prussia, hoe plainly told them that they were entering “upon a long and bloody war.” Now how did he know this? Why did he not rather say—The Prussians will fly the first shot; il fire blank cartridge io order to spare ex, and the troubie of carrying the wounded.” No; he believes in his own destiny, and actually seems to wish to obtain credit for supernaiural foresigit. He did a foolish thing, however, in being so explicit in his prophecies. ‘The oracle of the Delphi, that governed the world for centuries, and incited or postponed wars according 4s it gave encouragement or not ¢O tho contemplated enterprises used, ex- pressed itself in such prebiqnous language as to defy any tmputation of error io iis calculations, vr. Cumming, of London, was a great prophet until he foretold that the end’ of tho world was to be on the 6th of Ociober, 185). Since that date he has natu- rally fallen 1uto disrepute. Napoleon the Tuird, however, scemsa to have had goud reason for be- | lteving that the WAR WOULD BE “LONG AND BLOOD He rushed into tne field unprepared, as the events prove, relying upon the resources oi France to pro- cure tae necessary supplies of men and money at a momenv’s notice. But why did he thus rush, like Aineas, into the midst of a superior host’ Now, the factis that the ERENCH NATION WAS ANXIOUS FoR WAR, more anxious even than Napolcon the ihird. The antipathy exhibited to the empire throughout the French cities and towns durtag the last two years, and their marked opposition to him in the voting on the plebiscite, all show some rankling with Napoleon the Third, The casus belli between the Kinperor and his subjects was not the pretended one. The real cause O! the dissatisfaction of the French nation with Bonaparte was not his despotic and personal government, but his acquiescence in the growing Greatness of Prussia. As half the world do not know ‘how the other nalf live,” so neither do kings and emperors know what their subjecta foatly think of them.

The moral of the war ts this, Ad all the nations a Europe, though armed to the teeth, are like the vio- tors tn the scene of Bombastes Furioso, where each has a dagger at the breast of his neighbor and yet cannot move without being nimself assassinated, It fs time that France and Prussia would realize ¢he situation and remember that neither will be at- lowed to wipe out the other from the map of Europe ae ewegrengs “e Perhaps it is some suck W us tis that led to the recent retrograde marc: Of the victorious Crown Prince.

The present European troubles had their frat ort gin in the Italtan ar lena of 1859.

The peoples would enjoy light, and tn the hight of the democracy they would, ana soon will, see untversal charity, liberty, equality, fratera- ity, peace and the blessings of cheap government and freedom, both of mind and conscieuce, for all.

He has tried the experiment of recasting it so often that few Frenchmen or foreigners could at last say whether it was moro like the model set by Jethro or by Napoleon 1. Tho English and American newspapers, of course, con- tained articles on the plebiscite; but the omniscient editors contradicted one another aud themselves in each alternate sentence. ‘Then came the voting on the plebiscite.

Let those who are out of ofice shuttle the cards; those in office had better not do 80, but as litte a8 possible. Napoleon, however, be- lleving that he was to live and dic on the throue of France, put that ttrone to the vote, and the vote coulirmed his expectation, THE FRENCH WANTED SOMETHING more than a plebiscite, and an appeal mtimating that they were the ultimate deposiiories of power? ‘They wanted a war with Prussla; and Napoleon, alter having al last discovered the seat of the Frenclt irritation, at once rushed headiong into war, lest his tenure of the eupire might become further inse- cure.

The death of Auguste Charles Joseph, Count de la Flanault de la Billarderie, took place in Paris within the last few days. fe was born there on April 21, 1785, and was consequently at the time of his de- ceased over eighty-five years of age. Deceased be. longed to one of the ancient families of France. During hia childhooa his father perished on the scaffold, after which the survivors of the family took refuge in England, where the youthful Goant was educated, In the year 1798 he returned to his native country and entered the army the subsequent year, being commissioned in a cavalry corps, with which he accompanied the First Consul to Italy, : His first essay in arms was at the famous battle of Marengo. He was afterwards made ald-ae-camp to Murat, and with that general made the campaigns: of Austerlitz, Pultusk and Jena. After the battie of Wagram he was made colonel and baron of the empire. For his bravery during the Russian cam- paign he was taised to the rank of general of brig- ade. At Leipsic he also distinguished himself, Here he was attached tu the Emperor's own person, and be conducted himself with such gallantry that he was made General of Division. He recognized tue pro- visional government in 1514, but upon the reappear- aece of Napoleon from Kiba he returned to his by the side of the Wmperor, with whom he fought at Waterloo. At the restoration he retired to Swita- erland, and afterwards went to Eugland, where, im 1817, he married the daughter of Lord Keeth. ‘The revolution in 1830 restored to the Count his peerage and ots rank inthe Freach army, In 1831 he was pamed Ambassador to Bertin; he was at the siege of Antwerp with the Dake of Or- leans. In i841 he was Ambassador to Vienna, @ post which he held until the downfall of the Or- leans dynasty.
