An agitation has commenced in North Germany for the abrogation of the fifth clause jn the treaty of Prague, which stipalases for the annexation of North Schleswig to Denmart. The Moniteur Univ'sel has been reinstated in its Old position as the oficial organ of the French gov- ernment. The Kitnische Zettung reports that during some megotiations In reference to capitulation Marshal Bazaine stated ttat ne defended the fortress and ‘maintained the army for the Emperor, and that he Knew nothing whatever of the republican govern- ment. An order has appeared in the German Ofictat Journal authorizing the organization “at once and @efinitely”’ of a postal service in the terriiory now under the jurisdiction of the Governor General of Alsace and Gorman Lorraine. A manifesto has been drawn up by Sefior Caste- Jar and signed by al! the republican dzputies of the Cortes advocating an Iberian republic, and its proper position in a free Europe. A Brussels jonrnal recommends all Catholics to sign petitions to their respective governments cali- ing on them not to recognize what has taken place im Italy, and to issue a combined manifesto against the annexation of Rome. It is stated from Berlin that there are 650,000 Ger- Man troops now tn France, divided into twenty-one army corps, and almost wholly consisting of soldiers of the line. There are three other corps under arms in Germany. The French are said to be making preparations for a continuance of the war in the north, west and south. News to this efMect has been received trom Lille, Arras, Lyons, Poictiers and several other towns. The Telegraph's correspondent, velegraphing from Rouen, says that, according tothe stories of travel- Jers, the Prussians lost 35,000 men, killed, wounded and prisoners, in the battles recently tought near Versuilles, The correspondent adds that the report 48 not official. The Ina¢pentance Belge says the government re- cognizes its right to arrest all foreign soldiers in uniform and armed that cross the Belgian frontier, but will not exercise the arbitrary right of stopping unarmed individuals, either French or German, The Spanish government has issued an order that owners of foreign vessels wrecked on the coast of Spain may export or dispose of wrecked materials. AFFAIRS BEFORE METZ. {Correspondence of the Pall Mall Gazette.) MARSHAL BAZAINR’S QUARTERS, BEFORE METZ, Sept. 23, 1870. There are stil) here in camp nearly 300,000 men, The regiments hitherto cari ne in the investment are being largely replaced by the landwelir, who are really only now coming forward. There are about 15,000 of the landwehr at the front, the villagos around are algo largely occupied by them, and as they are drafted of fresh arrivals fake their jace.

According to the advices from the German army before Metz a Prussian officer, who had a pariey with Marshal Bazaine a few days ago, with the ob- ject of putting an end to the practice of firing upon Outposts, was tuformed by the Marshal that he sought to preserve the fortress and the army under his command for the service of the Emperor Napo- leon, and that he had nothing to do with the repub- lic estabilshed tn Parts, The Times correspondent befare Meta, writing on the 220, nays:— The number cf casualties here daily decreases.

ITALY. Letter from Victor Emanuel to the Pope. The feflowing {# the letter addressed by King Victor Emanuel to the Pope and seni to his Holiness by Sount Ponza di San Martino:— Most HoLy FATHER—With the affection of a son, with the faith of a Catholic, with the loyalty of a king, with the sentiment of an Itahan, 1 address | myseif again, as I have done formal, to the heart of your Holiness, A storm full of pertis threatens Europe, Favored by the war which desolates the centre of the Conti- nent, the party of the cosmopolitan revolution in- creases in courage and audacity, and is preparing to strike, especially in Italy and in the provinces governed by your Holiness, the last blows at the monarchy and the Papacy. I know, Most Holy Father, that the greatness of yeur soul would not fall below the greatness of events; but for me, a Catholic king and an Italian king, and as such guardian and surety by the dis- pensation of Divine Providence and by the will of the uation of the destimes of all Italians, I feel the duty of taking, in face of Europe and of Catholclty, te responsibility of maintaining order mn the penin- sula and the security of the Holy See. Now, most Ho!y Father, the state of mind of the population governed by your Holiness, and the pre- seuce among them of foreign troops coming from different places with different intentions, are a source of agitation and of perils evident to all. Chance or the effervescence of peanions may lead to violence and to effusion of blood, which itis my duty and yours, most Hely Father, to avoid and prevent, I see the indefeasibie necessity for the security of Italy and the Holy See that my troops already guard- | ing tue frontiers should advance and occupy the po- sition which shail be indispensanle to the security of your Hoiiness and to the maintenance of order. Your Holiness will not see a hostile act in this measure of precaution, My government and my forces will restrict themselves abselutely to an ac- reconcilable, of the Roman populations with the in- violability of the Sovereign Pontiff and of his spirit- a lore and with the independence of the oly See.

The Presse, of Vienna, gives the following from Cassel, which the Prussian goverument ia sald to be doing its best to conceal:—~ Napoleon for two days exhibited a strange elava tion of spirits, which up to this had not been pers ceptible in him. He received during the last few days several despatches and letters from Paris and Hastings, spoke extremely little, and for the two days left his room oniy once. This was about five o’clock in the evening. He had given orders that all despatches which arrived should be brought to him immediately, wherever he was. Two, which had just come from Has- tings and Brussels, were accordingly taken to him in the park. He read them and grew visibly pale. He then returned to the castle and shut him. self up in hisroom. After they had seen or heard nothing of him for two hours nis immediate attend- ante resglved, on the pretext of having something important ty somaya: to ask for admission into is room.

The trees are cut down all along the from Courcelles to Mercy les Hauts; but this isa military necessity. The Prussians do not commit any wanton destruction, Entering the park at Mercy one passes through a number of strong the men bivouacking in the open air and jways in readiness; their arms plied, with the imet crowning each bayonet aud the arms loaded; sentinels on the alert. From the chateau, atthe top of which an observatory Ils established, you may look right into Metz. The cathedral ts the central object; about it bodies of troops may bescen moving. Men, women and chii- dren move about the streets seemingly as in time of peact, and herds of borses quietly graze im the eadows and on the glacis. The fact is Metz isa pare or such prodigious strength that there is very ttle chance of the Germans attempting to carry it by any coup de main, Besides its great natural strength, which has been improved by the strong defensive works, ancient and modern, of’ which you have already neard, well devised and serones built fleldworks have been end are still being constantly added, which would have to becarried before the wall of Metz could be reacned, While we were looking from fhe top of thousand the ChAtean de Mercy we could see some busy spades at work extending aud ‘an earthwork under the guns of Fort in, As all these field-works are protected it guns of the fortresses, mach bivod and many lives sacrificed vefore they be carried.

ATTITUDE OF THE CZAR. The Cologne Gazette, referring to the remarks of some journals on the attitude of Russia in the present war, says:— ‘The notoriously friendly feeling of the Emperor of Russia for Prussia cannot be denied; but it is gladly rumored about that he is sick. In this, we may re- mark by the way, as we know from the unanimous testimony of eye-witnesses in St. Petersburg, there 1s not one word of truth. The Emperor is perfeculy well, and 18 delighted,gas his presentation of orders proves, atthe German victories, At the beginniag of the war, as we learn from @ trust- worthy source, the Emperor Alexander declared, in opposition to the military men who surroundea “The war isa misfortune, but it has been pro- voked France, and, the troops of my uncle will give the French a Otting leason.”’ The news of the battle of Woorth was greeted by the Emperor as joy- ful intelligenee, and the statement already made in Ls pos is confirmed as periectly true, that when, at ‘he capitulation of ‘Sedan, he proposed a toast in honer of the event, he proke his glass, accord- my to the ancient custom, that no one might ever drink from i¢ again. All this as little accords with what is said about the mateperapie tooling of Russia for Prussia as the letter of the iperor Alexander to King William, sbout which some pay with French sympathies have recently said all sorts of fabulous things in an unfavorablesense. The mven- tors of rumors about congresses must be content to know that peace will be concluded without them and those from whom they receive their orders. THE COUNT DE CHAMBORD CLAIMS THE THRONE. The Phare da Loire publishes a circular, which, it asserts, has been written and distributed by the Count de Chambord, in which he says:— Do not be disquicted, but hope.

Regatta of the Gulick Bont Club. ‘The second annual regatta of the Gulick Boat Club came off on Saturday at Pleasant Valley, Al- though three events were announced, the pro- gramme was confined to twosingle scull races which were rowed over & course of three miles, The steamer Fort Lee, chartered by the ciub for their tin. vited guests, left the foot of Christopher street at two o'clock, conveying @ namerous party to the scene of the dispiay. There being a pretty stiff breeze from the north, fears were entertained lest the water should prove too rough for the contests, but the wind gradually dying out no ob- stacles were presented. For the first race there were three entries—Decley, Biake and Gan- non—this prize being a gold medal and the single scull championship of the club, Deeley was the favorite gt long odds, so much as $100 to $50 being freely offered and accepted. The contestants got into line in seventeen feet working boats shortly atter four o'clock, all in excellent trim. Gannon was close on shore, Deeley in the middie and Biake on the outside. At 4:19.35 P. M. the com- petitors went off at the word “Go,’’ Deeley slightly ahead; Gannon hugged the shore, while Biake made for the centre of the river. Forsome time Blake and Deeley kept almost bow and bow, when, after getting well out in the river, Deeley made a strange attempt tw cross the bows of Biake’s boat, but fail m the effort passed under the stern and continued farther out, Blake meanwhile shooting straight ahead. The movement made by Deeley was not generally com- mended, for through it he apparently lost all chance of the race. Hitnerto the men had rowed vigor- ously, but they now relaced their exertions. Gannon subsequently came up with Deeley, and both con- tinued in company until the upper stakeboat was reached. The tide was at the last ef the ebb. and amid great cheering Biake continued to widen the gap between him and his two competitors. The Tace Was now virtually atanend. Gannon finally parse Deeley, the stakeboat being rounded as under:— Names. Color.

The Less of the Iron War Steamer Captain, Admiral Burton has addressed the following let- ter on the loss of the Captain to the London Timesi— A great deal has been said and written as tothe cause of the loss of this ill-fated ship totally irrele- vant to the real cause of the lamentable disaster which occurred to her. ‘There are only two causes, which are as clear as the sun at noonday, which were the only te for her capsizing. The first is that her centre o! gravity Was considerably above the line of flota- tion, Whereas it ought to have been one-third below the line of flotation and two-thirds from the Kelson.

A Wourtemburg officer writes to the Darmstadt Military Gazeve :—“It is remarkable how the French Blake was nearly 200 yards ahead and took the race very easy. Half way up Deeley overhauled Gannon, but the latter again resumed second place. Blake came in the winner by even twenty lengths having completed the distance in twenty-four minutes and thirty seconds. Gannon one minute and forty-five seconds behind. Deeley’s time was not taken. Many were surprised and d:sappointed at his defeat, The next single scull race was much the better. ‘There were four contestants, Moore (white), Spear (red), Byson (white and red) and Kenny (red and blue). The course was the same as in the other race—one mile and a half to the upper stakeboat and return, and the prize a gold medal, At 5:1:325 P. M. @ capital start was effected, Moore close to the shere, Spear next, Byson third ace and Kenny on the outalde, byson shot ahead, followed by Kenny. Spear and Moore “fouled” shortly afser the start, but the latter getting clear ulled @ fine stroke and came within two lengths of yson, Kenny and Spear falling back, After an ex- citing contest Byson turned the upper stakeboat ahead, the time of the leading boats being:— HAM S. 5 26 40 5 26 42 ‘The run home was excecdingly close and interest- ing.

Byson completed the race in twenty-four Tainutes thirty-one seconds and Moore in twenty-four minutes thirty-seven seconds, and Kenny and Spear, who had quitie a little brush between themselves, in alout twenty-seven minutes. Altogether this race, unlike the previous one, afforded much pleasure to those who witnessed 11. MARINE TRANSFERS. The following Is a complete list of marine transfers from the Uustom House, from the 17th ef September to present date:— mode of fighting has altered in this war. They em- ploy cavalry, espectally cuirassiers, for the attack, while the infantry generally awaits the atiack in strong positions behind earthworks and rifle pits, ‘This ts the cause of the enormons Prussian losses, and of an order by the King that strong positions should never be assaulted in front. In the battle of Sedan the artiliery did the most service, The Prussian losses are not very considerable, but the French much mere 80. Mitrailleuses were not so largely employed as at Woerth. Their effect at one thousand or twelve hundred yards is often reaily fearful. It 4g remarkable that 60 many mounted officers fall.’’ The Duke of Suxe-Melningen, in a letter to the Duchess from Sedan, mentions his visit to General MacMahon, who, when asked about his wound, re- plied, “That 1s the least important matter.” The letter continues thus:—‘‘Such is the condition of the French army that nobody trusts another. The omficer complains of the common soldier, the latter finds fault with the officer, and makes no secret of his opinion. Prussian officers were wit- nesses of how French generals were insulted. The French officers attribute their defeats to the Socialist ideas which have gained ing upper hand in the army, and have relaxed discipline.” The Ameri- can General Sheridan, writing from the German headquarters at Rheims, says:—There seems little more to be done than the siege of Paris, which France cannot save. The command of the Freuch generals made the thought of success impossible in all the combats which I have witnessed.” The correspondents of the German papers, in their description of the march on Parts, all mention the deserved condition of the country. At Meaux patrols were sent ont, and the peasants whom they discovered in the neighboring wood were obliged toreturn. The place had been entirely abandoned, Herr Wachenhanusen, in a letter descriptive of an excursion from Meaux to Sivry, states that every- thing along the rone was as still as death—the farms forsaken, uhe doors and wiu- dows wide open, no living object to be seen. No German soldier had yet advanced into the districts thus ravaged between Meaux and Paris. No Garde I have not cared fe> power, but 1 have always cherisned in my heart the love of France, and my devotion will always keep on a level with my duty. MR. MALET’S REPORTED IN- TERVIEW WITH BISMARCK. The following 1s the report of the Interview be- tween Mr. Malet, Second Secretary of the English Legation at Paris, and Count Bismarck, which the Count has since branded as untrue:— Within the last few days Bismarck has been ofticially visited by Mr. Malet, Second Secretary of the Legation Ju Paris, who came on @ wission from Mobile or Franc-tireur was visible, and everything showed that the Inhabitants had fled only @ day or two. A letter from Montmirail, from the Thira army, 16 in the same strain. Deserted villages, it says, though no novelty, have nowhere been so general as in Champagne. According to the Constituvionnel, an attempt has been made in one of the aistricts of Paris to estab- lsh @ revolutionary commune, like that organized in Lyons. The vigilance of M de Keratry, assisted by M. Rochefort, has defeated the promoters of such @ dangerous movement.

NOTES, ‘The great event of the present week on the stage ‘will be the a¢bit of the peerless tragéalenne, Fanny Janauschek, in English tragedy. The play selected for her débiit, “Debora,” is the one in which she ‘won her most lasting triumph in German. She ap- pears in “Debora” on the threo first nights of this week and at the Saturday matinée. On Thursday and Friday she plays Mary Stuart and on Satar- day night a little comedy entitled “Oome Here.” Mr. Augustin Daly, her manager, has surrounded her with an excellent company, comprising such artists a8 Walter Montgomery, Miss Fanny Morant, Frederick Robinson, Mark Smith, J. B. Studley, Miss Tone Burke, &¢. On Saturday night Miss Agnes Ethel plays Pauline to Mr. Montgomery’s Claude Melnotte. Tho orchestra will be under the direcuon of Mr. Harvey B. Dodworth, and Mr. James Roberts has attempted to dress up the wilderness of the Academy of Music stage with some of his best scenery. That establishment is singularly defective in that article, and Mr. Daly has been obliged to fur- nish it with a new and complete set of scenes. The parsimony of the directors of that ill-fated house will not allow them to offer any encouragement to a manager or artist. The Swedish nightingale, Christine Nilsson, takes her leave of New York to-night in @ grand concert at Steinway Hall. She will be assisted by Miss Cary, Brignoli, Vieuxtemps, Verger, Boson! and an orchestra as usual, Her absence will be brief, and she will probably give another series of concerts in this city in a fortnight hence, ‘The desire to hear her in opera grows stronger each time she sings, and Mr. Sirakosch will probably accede to the wishes of hus patrons ere the winter 13 far advanced. It depends, however, on the stockholders of the Academy, who will be loath to give up their usurped privileges. No lover of true artistic acting should miss seeing the Jane Eyre of Marie Seebach, one of the most re- markable impersonations ever witnessed on the stage, It will be given to-night at the Fourteenth Street theatre, and to- morrow evening Seebach will appear as Mary Stuart for the last time. On Wednesday “Narcisse” will be produced, and on the two following evenings the great actress will Play Louisa Miller, in Schuller’s tragedy, ‘‘Love and Intrigue.” The houses are steadily increasing, and Seebach 1s fast establishing herself in the hearta of the people. She surprised every one who heard her by the wonderful naturalness, delicacy and artistic finish of her characterizations, Albery’s comeay of the ‘Two Roses” will be given for the first time at Wallack's to-night, Tne cast embraces Messrs, Clarke, Fisher, Marlowe, Stod- dart, Lanagan, Peck, Quigley » Mrs, Thomas Barry, Miss lle Germon, Miss Emily Mestayer, Mrs. Seiton and Miss Clayton. “The Rivals” met with fatiering success last week. “Wee Willie Winkie” has established itself at tho Olympic on such @ solid foundation that there 13 every reason to expect for It as long a run as that of “Humpty Dumpty,” The audience, Saturday night, Was about the largest ever congregated within the wails of the theatre. <A very pleasing feature in the pantomime is the troduction of children in the dancing and /Jeerte parts, and tue utter absence of anything to offend even the most fastidious, As for Fox, he is simply “immense,” and there are materials for two or three eeniane 1n this his latest and most successful ef- ‘ort be Lotta plays her best character, “Little Nell, er the Marchioness,” at Niblo’s Ret eh Next week she closes her engagement, which been remarkably successful in point of attendance. The Fifth Avenue theatre has never before wit- nessed such crowds as uring the present brilliant run of ‘Man and Wise.” The success is such that Mr. Daly is compelied to postpone the production of many novelties and old favorites until the public begin to grow tired of “Man and Wife,” which, from present appearances, 1s a long way off. Mr. Jefierson enters upon the ninth week ef his engagement at Booth’s, and yet there is no prospect ol “Rip Van Winkle” drawing toa close.- Such suo- cess Is @ rarity in theatrical annals, Miss Lina Kdwin announces two sparkling pieces this evening at her elegant little theatre. Stuart Robson § Major de Boots and Miss Eliza ‘Weathersby maxes her bow in the burlesque of “Sonnambula,”? Many novelties are in preparation and the house is now established as a standard bur- lesque establishment. “Le Petit Faust” enters upon its third week at the Grand Opera House. The management anuounces the resumption of the Sunday cencerta, which were 80 success{ul last season. The Kiralty troupe close their engagement at Wood’s Museum on Saturday next. The bill for the week consists of the pantomime of “Hump! Dumpty, Jr.” and a burlesque en “Rip Van Winkle.” ‘The blondes appear next week. The burlesque of “Lucrezia Borgia” and a new olio are the principal atcractions at the Globe thea- tre. Mr. Hart is making more ous of the house than any one ever supposed 1t was worth, One of the most pleasing features of the bill at the Comique is the artistic singing of Miss Jennie Hughes, who promises to be a valuable addition to the aviary of American songstresses. A new local drama, called “Tie White Kiephant,” Miss Grattan and an oljo of countiess attractions make up the rest of the bill. «The Old Straw Man of New York’? and ‘“Foot- marks ip the Snow’ comstitute the bill at the Bowery, Mrs. Bowers plays ‘‘Lady Audley’s Secret” at the Park, Brooklyn, to-night. Kelly & Leou’s Minstrels give a burlesque Nilsson concert this week, got up in their most laughable Cai with an excruciating pregramme. iiss Clara Louise Kellogg, with her fine concert troupe, takes lier leave of her Brooklyn friends, at ther Academy of Music, to-night, The turee sisters of the lamented planist, L. M. Gottschalk, Celestine, Clara and Blanche, give two concerts at Association Hall on Wednesday and Fri- day, and a matince on Saturday. They will be as- sisted by Messrs. Hall and Prume. Miss Blanche 13 a soprano singer and her gisters are pianisté, The New York circus opens for the season to-night with everything spich span new. ‘The San Francisco Minstrels announce a new pro- gramme of the choicest kind. Tony Pastor has secured the Bartine sisters, who will make their bow to-night in the burlesque, “Fairies of the Bowery.” Welch, Hughes and White’s Brooklyn Minstrels have a host of comicalities for their patrons this week at the Brookiyn Opera House. Poctor Corry’s Diorama of ireland is at the Brook- lyn Athenaeum. The burlesque on “Trovatore,”’ at Hooley’s, has proved a success, and stili remains on the pills, Lewis Baker announces the commencement of the season at the New Orleans Vurielles for the last day of the present month, . Mr. J..S. Clarke appears at the Brooklyn Academ; on Tuesday as Toodies and Major de Boots. A Boston paper speaks thus of Thomas’ orchestra, which has commenced a series of classical concerts in that city: Mr. Thomas’ orchestra still maintains its admirable num- bers, and shows even better organization than before, with improved artistic temper and spirit that may well chal- disputation. Indecd it was a rare treat to bear if it were only trom the way with which the opening chords of the frat numnber on the programme, the eber “Euryanthe,” were announced—sure, full, decisive, without the hesitancy and vagary of instrumental attack we are accustomed to, but with » possession of power to assure and vitalize all that was to come. ‘Thomas himself, more than ever, we realized, is a gallant embodiment of conductorahip, Bis cam easy command over is for sympathetic ant conveyan own innight and meaning to those around him, bis adapta- tion of manner to the spirit and structure of each work be. fore him, and his undisturbed firmness and moderation of zeal in guiding to a glowing conclasion or dramatio climax are traits that cannot but de admired and invite tribute. Al mark of rT and aud to their high excellence jast evening ; and if not rewarded by th with outright demonstration and enthusiasm, ft was because they ministered in music and performance more to the deep sources of thought and imagination than to the external and material senses, Even in the lighter music—the waltzes an the polkas—such {s the absolute finish and grace with whic! they are rendered that one finds himself persuaded and ab- sorbed by thelr fascinating rhythms. ‘The first matinée of Mme. Seebach was Med Saturday before an overcrowded audience, which, in its greater part, seemed to be com: Ameri- can ladies. ‘Mary Stuart” was the play performod, and in it Mme. seebach repeated the great triumphs she had already previously ed 1M Unis Character. ‘Though not usual at matinées, Mme. Seebach was Tecalied at the end of each act amid vociferous Sp. plause, and in the great scene of the third act received quite an ovation. Judging from the suc- cess attending the first Seebach matinée, we trust Mr, Grau will be induced to repeat them engagement of the distinguished tragédtenne. ‘The Missouri Repubdiican thus speaks of John 8. Clarke's personativn of Rovert Tyke, in the “School for Reform:"— A naturally honest and noble-hearted Yorkshire yieldsto are temparion, commits a crime and sutters te ‘sentence of transportation. He returns to his nati revisits the scenes of bis innocent youth, meets the man who gave him the first us on the downward road, meets the old father who had followed the prodigal son with Unchanging axection in all his wanderings, and through this atfection is redeemed, regenerated, reformed. Tho plot is a somewhat slender and common place one, and mm the hands of any but a frst cinss actor would attract little interest. But Mr. Clarke throws’ over it the life and light of elaborate culture and con- summate genius, ansforms the commen place into the eub- ime and Kindies the meagre Incidents of the play into the lowing pathos which rivats every eye and touches every ri. In fact, Robert is essentially a tragic rather than w comic character, and appeals far more closely to the deepest emotions of the human soul than to those mirthful fancies which floatupon the surface. There is in it, as de- leader—were up eloped by this gentiomad ond Power, an almost terrible fascination, impossible, perhaps, to cril ana: lyze, but quite as impossible to resist. scene ot Tyke's first meet with Lord Avondale and th ognition of his futher as pieoss Bitaeveahs fatthful and impassioned act- ing, we have seldom seen and they are sufticient of themselves to stamp Mr, Clarke ag iat of the highest order and eminently worthy of the fai has gained on both sides of the ocean. The sudden gesture of mingled horror and surprise with which be hears his father’s name, the flerce, bewildered ook in the old man’s face, the con- vulaive shudder with which he fiings aside the candle and turns away in an agony of remorse and shame, the wild em- brace, the prayer of gratitude—each and all of these are done to such rare perfection that the actor $8 lost and forgotten inthe man, and tetion merges into reality. There are no careless daubs upon the picture, every lne is cleariy and sharply drawn, every lmeament stands out in bold relief, and nothing is omitted even in the minutest detali of by-play that can add to the completeness of the representation or Increase tue pleasure with which we view ily MARRIAGES AND DEATHS, © Married.
