I could gain no explanation of the phenomenon, and from whe place in which I stood no mution among the troops nearest to the rampart couid as yet be seep. Alnong that poruon of the Versaillist forces which was encamped on the Bois de Boulogne, immediaiely in trout of where 1 stood, there seemed to be not the slightest expectation of an approactiag conflict on any seule, large or small, Many of the men were quictiy cooking their soup, some washing their faces, others lolling on the gronad. By lali-past four, however, an ludefnite rumor—comtag from & know not where and through | Know not whom— began to spread that our troops were gaining a great success hear the Point do Jour, At once I basien to Sevres, (deeming that there { would have a better chance of obtaining information than in an isolated Position like Montretout. Here I learned that all the troops encamped in the Park and the Villa ‘Tre ville had, at tweity minutes past four, been. COMMANDED TO HOLD THEMSELVES IN READINESS. About eight minutes later had come orders to marca instanter; and by the time [ had arrived at Sdvres tiese forces had gone to their destination, whatever it might be. On my way to Sevres | passed St. Cloud; and here also 1 crvelyed much ercitement Bud movement among fhé troops.

From thts iact | Knew that our troops had, at all evenis, entered Paris, end that now we decisive and final struggle had arrived. discovery came suddenly upon me, for hud h from excellent autnority that the storming would hot take place unul the alwrnoon of Moiuay. PF What I have since been totd my surprise was not unnatural nor my tuformation incorrect, That THE Gare3 AY AUYEULL AND sT. CLOUD WEER BATTERED TO VIECES, we all knew; bat wo had heard—and heard with truth—that the Iusurgeuts nad erected formu defences behind, Which would alimosi replace tt siroyed gates. Ihe aigcovery that the Point was undefended came upon the troops uke a clap of thunder, and was, as 1 have been enabled to telegraph to you on Sunday mgt, we r.sult of a darang reconnoissance by & plucky murine ofiver, by naiue Treves, After 'Treves and some engineers ad advanced the Ninety-first regiment aud a uc- tachment of sauiors followed. hese snececded in guintay a footiug until tae Twenty-sixth regiment — which had be summoned to this dwiy to the greatest haste—came up to their aid, My atieution was taken from VUE VERSALLLES TROOPS INSIDE THE ENCEINTE to a pair of fying batiertes of artillery which | saw hurrying towards the bridge o1 boats at Sevres. At the same woment I caught sight of two others, which, followmg the bank of the river, ook up a position near the point of the He & iain, whence they opened fire against rhe ramparts, in correspoudeace with other batierics mounted oa the leit bank. MONTRETOUT also at this moment began to speak, and with some emphasis. Leiore long, however, complete silence reigned outside the enceinte and the whole coniest was transferred to the interior of Fars, The troops had succeeded, without mucn deiay, in ariving before them the few Natiouul Guaids Who attempted, inside the Pout du Jour, to stay their advance. ‘Two cannon, partly disubied, were found ou the bastion, Our men lu mewately set to work upon them, and, aided by that superior handiness wuieh, tke inany otte: things, is born of necessity, (hey managed to the pieces in tignting order. Then, TURNING TREM AGAINST TUE ENEMY, who sknikes in the houses and behind some attempts at barricades, they soon routed the iew tne mas ketry fire bad mot yet induced to depari. Between six and seven o'clock | observed fiames bursting forth from several places in tout, aud 1 began Co Jear lest the oft-uttered Un of wholesale explosions were about to be ¢ ¢ into practice. But the fires seemeu io burn steadily, and soon my fears were dissipated. Au hour more and allence Jel upon the juside as well as the oi side of Puris—the troops had apparently disposet of all opposition. Quietly and steaany 1 could see them marching on—past the Pont de Grenetie, past the Pont dina, ON TO THE ARC DE TROMPRHE, and even as far as the Trocadero. Then again I began to leur the sounds of uusketry firing, which @ moments becume ferce indeed. vide! the insurgents were begmuing to show last. From mormation I huve since received know that at this moment some brisk tgnung began at the Place de la Concorde and also further north, in which the Communists fared as Mit as at the Poiut du Jour, By this time, howev it was gettlag dark, My glass was useioss, my eye: dim, for it had been to me # day of great exertion and great excitement; so 1 reinctantly resiaguished my observation of ab event nol jess Welcome tian important, and went to bed. THE ROAK OF BATTLE. But a few moments asiecp, as J thought, and again awake. Looking at my watet, | tind itis about two o’clock, The roar of musketry aod cannon has aroused me, and would, tn inci, have done so had | veen one of the seven sicepers. All the tumult comes from the direction of Mont. rouge, which greatly astonishes me; for, when tast A saw the troops of Versailles they were far away, indeed, irom this quarter. On geting up L solved the mystery. It appears that the forces, which eniel between the Poiat dn Jourand Passy, wero harassed by tue batteries that sull remamed in the possession of tie enemy aloug the southeris rainparts. It Was soon determuved (at tuls state uf things should be put an end to, GENERAL DE CISSEY, with a body of from 16,000 ww 20,000 men, was ordered to enter by the Vaugirard sud Montrouge gates, This was eflected without much dimeuity. General de Cissey encountered no Obstacle to speak of, and, sboriy after ins entrance. the gov- ernment was virtually master of the entire souta of Paris. The rapidity with whiet thie portion of the operations against the capital was carried out 1s easily cxpiaiued. fhe south part of the city was not, m the first place, in Ute samme state Of disatfection as the northera, although the ram- parts thewselves and the forts without were heid by the recalcitrant Nationals ; and, again, our capture of issy and Vanvres bad joug couviuced ihe tnsur- gents of the hopelessness of resistance ta this quarter. Meantin WHAT HAD BEOONE OF TUE INSURGENTS ? For the greater part of yesterday, and to-day also, We had to rely solely on conjecture as to what was going on within. One sigh we noviced with pleasure a3 mdicative that success was assured to our troops. As the hours advanced the sounds of tring became fAinter—-so faint that, indeed, they were scareely audible outside the south erp rainpart. Thence we inferred that the forces of the government had got far into the heart of the city, and the supposition turned out to Lave been correct. General de Cissey had succeeded tn joining his forces to those which bad airendy gained possession of the northern portion of the city, and THE CAPITAL HAD THEN BECOME VIRTUALLY OURS. The rebels appear to have made up their minds 10 retire to some Strong points im the nortir of the city. There were some advan such a course, Tie Butte Montivartre 18 & good position and could be made yery edective. On the other hand, the in- waurgents perhaps calculated that if we worst came to the worst they coud retire still facther north, and find berg the German aes an escape dopled to them on the west and south of sue cayial 1a tals CspectaWpe kyweyer, iboy soon | Riad have been have prov Y j-y-- ATRUN BENTIN a8 of th» German investment in Paris, and have ab- solute’.y'refused to let any fugitive from the capital pass neutral line. As yet the insurgents do not seem to have made a very effective use of the Br Montmartre; the advance of our- troops / 1s to goon without being retarded; and, so ag we can see. the hour is not far distant when People here are now beginning to evince & great interest. in persons whose fate up to the present has been to them a inatter of perfect in- difference. Everywhere you find men asking WHAT HAS BECOME OF DELESCLUZE AND DOM- BROWSKI, CLUSERET AND ASSI, As to the latter, he at least is secured, for he was among the prisoners brought in to-day.

A third rumor current is that be presented nimself, wounded, at the Prussian out- posts, but was compelled to go back, notwithstand- ing his urgent desire to pass, The other leaders have not yet been apprehended; and i¢ is thought that, in spite of all the exertions of the government, some of them have succeeded im making their escape.

Mr. Robert Lindley Murray acted as president and William H. Ladd secretary. Tne morning session ‘was devoted mainly to reading and discussion of the report of the Committee on Freedmen’s Scnools, In which Elizabeth Comstock, Mary Thomas, Samuet Jones, Superintendent, and others participated, From the report and discussions it appeared that the society sustamed thirieen schools among the freedmen of the South, and that in tne city of Richmond alone there are 9,000 colored children of school age. The local authorities in many parte of the South are heartily co-operating with Frends and with other Northern people who are down there teaching. Butit was regretted by the speakers, many of whom had labored among the freedmen and some had come as delegates to this yearly meeting from Southern States, that a better class of Northern people have not gone down among the people of the South, TUE OBSVACLUS IN THR WAY FREEDMEN were poluted, but they manifest great anxiety to learu, and the classes show great progress, The elements of every class of society are among them and only need education to develop them. This Friends’ Freedmen’'s Committee have spent among the colored peopie of the South daring the last ten years over $143,000, Subscriptions having beea asked for at the close of the session to continue this work among the freedmen $%,000 were prompuy Taser ‘The afternoon session was devoted to an interest. ing discussion of Indian affairs, growing out of the report of the comumittee on tis subject; and also upon a@ proposition of the Farmington (Il) Quar- terly Meeting, asking that a comuitice be appolntea to arrange for and conduct a series of mass nieet- Ings throughout the bounds of the Yearly Meeung, ‘where the doctrines of the Society of Frieads might be promulgated more widely than they now are. THE FIRST REPORT ON THE INDIANS showed that the society have employed the services of Dr. Nicholson, 01 Georgia, as their representative among the Indians, to reside at Lawrence, Kansas; that they have two scnools in operation among the Paw Paws and two more ainong the Shawnees; that they have also an Indian orphanage under their oF TRACRING THE care, and that the Indians have donated farm lands to ft, upon which tue children are to be taught agricultural — pursuits, There are at least forty Friends in direct contact with the Indians in the Central Reservacon and many of the latter bave been convertea to vorist. ‘The United States government was praised for its recent efforts to civilize and Chrisuanize the red men. ‘The treasurer’s report showed that he had expended $2,572, and there remains # balance of $897 on hand, Tho society conducts its business by means of sub-commitvees of its Executive Com- uittee on Washington Correspondence, by which it holds relations with the goveru- ment; on instraction, on Indians, on indus- trial pursuits aud the like, In additton to the regu- lar appropriations Congress was asked for $40,000 mhore, ana there seemed to be no doubt out it would be given. When the proposition came up lately belore Congress to open up the Central Indian Reservation the prompt and earnest protest of the society to the Indian Commissioners gave it a quietas, and it has uot been heard of since. ‘The bxecutive Committee, therefore, asked for $5,000 from the yearly meeting, which sum Was ordered to be raised by quota among the quarterly meetings, $550 falling to New York's share. Benjamin Taylor, vr. James 0.

Faml- Hes and mdividuais do, however, in their own way, “snow forth the Lord’s death till lle come. They don’t believe in nor do they employ a humanly or- dained ministry, but any man or woman baptized with the Holy ust, who feels a call to Ube mupisiry, may be chosen to serve any congregation ot Friends in that capacity by every such congregation. But where no such chotce is made, the elders, male and female, have each an equal right and authority to teach aud vo preach in their meetings, And yesicrday the most advanced ground was taken wm favor of women ex- pressing their views Hot) in meeting, and many of them with (ull hearts aud tear-dimmed eyes greeted this proposition to bold public meetings and prayed that they might return to the earnestness of former days in gathering souls to Christ, Great confusion aud ignorance of mind exists umong outside Curis- Uans 1n regard to the faitu and devotion ol Friends, and by these meetings aud by publications and tracts itis bres oe to uproot this ignorance and prejudice and to give the society a new departure in the good work. At the close of the discussion a committce of Uirty-two Was appointed to carry oul the design of the Meeting in Unts regard, and among the local members of that committee here are Henry Dicken- son, Robert L.

Many persons had really began to think they were tnvincible—that a sort of charm, similar to that which surrounded the famous old | Cincinnatl in 1869, had encircled them, and that tt | would not be despoiled by any viub duriog this a son, Yesterday was looked forward to with almost PEVERISH ANXIBCY by the lovers of the sport ever since it was first announced in the HERALD that the day had becn set apart for the first grand match betw the Green and the White Stockings. New Yorkers were @ little uneasy as to what the result would be; for they knew full well the strength of the Western lads, and had seen tneir own ciub most disgracefully defeated by the “ilaymakers;’’ but still they offered to bet freely on the “Mutes,’’ determined that if they were defeatea they would share their humuation to | phe extent of Uie utter depiction of their pocket- books, As early as one o'clock in the afternoon the various Ines of cars in this city Whose eastern termini are th Willlainsbarg ferries, and those of Brooklyn which pass hard by the Unton grounds, were crowded with persons of every degree in the social scale, all bent on seelug the bali match. Raptily the spacious grounds began to fill up with the inpourmg torrent of men, Women and boys, and soon every avail. able seat in the Cuclosure was occupied, Vast numbers congregated on the long porett of the ciud house; tae beauutul slopmyg, erass- covered banks along the side of the groayds and on the emerald-hued plots just outside of the felde: the beautifnt pagoda, at the lower end of grounds, from the tal, taperipg ugstail’ of white: waved majestically tHE WHIP PENNANT of the Mutnals, and the newly erected stand, jost atthe right of the main entrance, were alive Wwitn Veautiful ladies and galiant meu.

This, Of course, moved each man slong and filled up tbe bases, and i certainly looked as though the Whites Would get at least one run in this time, as they had bat one man out, and Simmons wad Treacy—voth triea men and true—to follow at the bat. As Simmons took up the bat, and faced Wolters with an evident determination of do- ing bis best towards clearing tie bases, the throng of ten thousand spectators, who were engeriy looking on, became so excited that they arose in one solid mass and awaied the result with eager eyes and abated breath. But they were not long held in suspense, fur in less than a moment Simmons bad sent up a reguiar sky- scraping foul, which Smith teuderly took in out of the weather, Treacy followed with a sharp groavder to Pearce, who tlelded it to first base almost with the rapidity of cee.

TWENTY-FIVE HUNDRED HOUSES have thelr ground floors under water, aud more than that number of families are to-night homeless and desolate, The canal ruas from the heart of the city to Lake Pontchartrain, ‘There is always a navies gable channel ten or twelve feet deep, and river nd SchoOHeErs perpetually Pass aNd TEpAsyy CORRUPT LEGISLATURES have turned over the whole levee system of the ftate to a private levee company, thereby bringing about te niet Carre crevasse; have transferred the whote «drat fe system of the city first to one bogus compauy and then to an- other ecually irresponsibic, thereby excluding the city from all chance of seif-protection, and have also leased this important canal to a private company on condition that they kept the levees in repair. “Reconstructed Legislatures are responsible for the two first- named jobs.

One curious fact, as showing the force of the food, may be mentioned. An old dredge boat sunk at the jake end of tho canal fifteen years ago, which all prior storms have left undisturbed, was raised by the torrent and carried four miles up the stream and hurled against the mouth of the crevasse.
