The Crown Princes of Prussia and of Saxony have already started on the march to Paris, and their advance has reached St. Quentin, a town not more than fifty miles from the capi- tal, With no enemy to oppose them, and none even to harass their rear or flanks as they march slong, the sturdy veterans, flushed with the grand haul made at Sedan on Friday, will doubtless open their batteries on the outer bastions of Paris by Thursday next. In the meantime the close sieges of Metz, of Strasbourg, of Montmedy and of Verdun hold in active work the rest of the grand Prus- sian armies that have overrun the fair land of France. Strasbourg holds out against des- perate odds and amid terrible hardships. Metz has suffered a great disaster in the cutting off of its water supply, and must soon fall, with Bazaine’s huge army. Mont- medy and Verdun are of less impor- tance, but will probably soon succumb to the overwhelming forges that the Germans are enabled to fling against them. When these places and these armies fall the force that ‘will be free to cperate against Paris will aggregate nearly all the men in the invading armies. There will be no dangerous enemies behind them, and there will be only the raw troops, the excited people and the bastions of Paris before them. The Feoling in the City. The news from Paris was the subject of the most intense interest in the city yesterday. In every prominent place of resort the situation in France was the principal topic of discus- sion. Will the republic be proclaimed? and if so, what effects will it produce? were the queries asked by hundreds of persons. By far the greater portion of the people seemed inclined to the belief that France would be unable to continue the contest against the victorious German armies, That Napoleon and the Napoleonic dynasty was completely “nsed up” was conceded almost unanimously, and, indeed, little regret was expressed that the empire was brought to a close; yet feel- ings were expressed that it had not passed away with less disastrous consequences to France. Orphaned children and desolated hearths are now to be found throughout Germany as well as France, and this ina great measure tinc- tured with grief the feeling that otherwise would have been joyful at the prospects for the establishment of a republic in France. With a republic in France how long will Spain, or Italy, or even Germany itself, remain monarchical countries?

But the main fact still stands forth in bold relief that France as the arbiter of the European Continent is displaced by Germany, and that, while Europe has no reason to fear a German empire like that of Charles the Fifth, embracing Spain—the programme of Charle- magne—the offensive assumptions and aggres- sions of Louis the Fourteenth and the dicta- torial role of the Bonapartes t) Germany, Austria, Italy and Spain are xo more to be feared from France, nor even the dashing crusades in behalf of “liberty, equality and fraternity” which distinguished the aggressive fanaticism of the first French republic.

Indeed, the whole of the Iberian peninsula is deeply agitated. There has been severe figlit- ing in Spain. Carlists and the regular troops have been in contact at several points. Priests and soldiers are captured and shot by the Carl- ists. The retaliation of the officials is severe. The Spanish peninsula is, as usual, heated and excited even to the extent of, as it appears at this distance, a new disruption of the govern- ment. The movement is extending to Portu- gal, if not from it. National sympathy and the democratic feeling are radiating from Paris rapidly and being evidently adopted by the peoples.

Fighting has oecnrred between the contending Carlists and the regular troops. In one of these actions General Eurite defeated the bunds of Gene- ral Visco and captured 120 prisoners, The Cartst chief Carrega, with 500 of his men, who offered to lay down their arms, have been pardoned.

A Man Clubbed to Death in the Fifth Ward— Liquor and Money the Cause—One of the Hovels of tie Poor ~Revolting Scenes. The Fifth ward, Brooklyn, was the scene of a cruel murder last evening. The victim of the affair was a well known resident of that district which has become so widely celeprated for revenue and marine raids upon the people who have distin- guished themselves in the manufacture of poteen whiskey ‘‘on the sly,’ and thereby evaded the per- centage which Uncle Sam regards as his due. Barney Duffy, the murdered mao, was yesterday afternoon somewhat under the influence of liquor, and, bethinking himself of the indebtedness of his sister, Mrs. Moody, the wife of James Moody, who owed him a small amount of money, he went forth- with to her residence, No. 45 Lite street. This was about half-past five o'clock. Dufty proceeded at nec to demand the immediate 7 PAYMENT OF THE DEBT and hecame violent in his manner, according to re- port calling her the most disgraceful names. His brother-in-law, the accused, who was in the cellar at the time engaged in cutting wood, came up stauis and called Duffy to ap account for his conduct, fol- lowing up his temarks by striking the unfortunate deceasea on the head with A MURDEROUS BLUDGEON in the shape of a jagged piece of live oak cut froma plece uf a ship’s spar. The weapon was about two Seet and a half in length and was quite heavy. The blows administered upon the forehead and back part of the head bled freely end caused Duffy to fall to the ground. The noise of the assault and the screams of the sister of the then dying man attracted A LARGE CROWD about the place, The deceased was removed in an insensible condition to his own residence, which was two doors further up the street—a small, two story frame house. Here he was laid out upon the floor of the wretched apartment, about eight by six feet, used as a candy store, which opens into the street, Water and other simple applications were applied to his head by his wife and neighbors, who choked up the miserable little room and swarmed with eager and morbid curiosity about the doors, Dr. Whitehead was summoned, after the efforts of his family and friends to restore consciousness had proved futile. The doctor immediately pronounced the case to be hopeless, and at eight o’clock the un- fortunate man WAS A COPRR. Tt was not until this announcement was made among the denizens that the police were notitied of the terrible occurrence, when a Mr. Graham, who lived opposite the abode of the decease, in Little street, repaired to the York street station house and informed Captain McConell of the murder. Tne latter telegraphed the fact to the Central Ontice, and, mpanied by Sergeants Dunn, Cain and Clancey and a@ couple of policemen, set ont to investigate the cause of the tragedy and to arrest the accused. Their presence was much needed in the immediate wee 80 great had become the mob in front of the HOVEL OF DRATH. A policeman was ut once stationed in the little store in which the dead man lay. The latier was about thimy-flve years of age, of medium height, stout build, and wore a dark mustache, The sur. rounding, of the place, as seen by a representative of the HERALD, Were miscrabie in the extreme.

It appears that for a long time past the male ana female denizens of the vicinity of No, 69 Washington street (Babbit’s soap factory) have been in the habit of under the awning in front of that building, for the purpose of flirting, singing and dancing. Among those who were thus engaged as about nine o’clock last evening were Christopher Higgins, of No. 123 Liberty street, and Mary A. Mar- shall, of No. 73 Washington street. TARY WERE WALTZING in front of one of the doora at ten minutes before nine, when Valentine Rickle, a night watchman em- Ployed in the building, came out, and as he opened the door the couple swung carele: ‘Up against it. Rickie ordered them off in a and offensive manner, and was answered by Higgins in an equally beliigerent strain, whereupon Rickle placed the muzzle of a Colt’s revolver at Higgins’ throat and fired. The wounded man struggled a moment to remain upright and then fell at the watchman’s feet, literally bathed in blood. The bullet entered the middie of the throat, cutting off the button of the collar, naming. through to the spinal column, where it buried itself, and now remains. In its course it severed several! arte! and the consequent hemorrhage was very great. Medi- cal assistance was at once obtained from the station house tn Church street, near Liberty, but was of no avail, the wounded man living only a very few mo- ments after the shot was fired. THE MURDERED MAN. Chrlerapaer Higgins was about twenty-eight yeara of age, a brushmaker by trade and resided with his brother-in-law, Robert McKay, a member of the Me- tropotan Fire Department, at 123 Liberty poke t as previousl; stated.

THE WATCHMAN, ‘The watchman is un uninieilectual looking Ger- man, rather heavily framed, dark complexion, un- kempt black hair and whiskers.
